Unbeknownst to the Flers and Jason, the night had passed as they had spent their time talking and catching up with each other.
Time had passed in the blink of an eye, and Jason didn't want his time with the Flers to end.
At least, not that quickly.
However, just at that moment, Wisse's voice resounded in his mind.
[I'm done, come out!]
Sighing deeply, Jason stood up with a twisted expression.
This made the Flers understand that it was time for Jason's departure.
As such, the mood plummeted, only for everyone, including Mark to hug Jason tightly.
"Maybe, we will be able to meet again...it's possible that we will also leave Argos in the future!"
It was Greg who said this, but Jason knew that both Gabriella and Mark were not talented enough to survive outside Argos, while both Greg and Malia might have a talent strong enough to make everything possible.
Jason just nodded his head, only to access his spatial rings where he transferred several items into a fourth spatial ring he was holding in his hand.
The fourth spatial ring held the last remains of mana stones and other, high-ranked equipment in addition to body refinement and cultivation techniques that could be used by everyone.
They were fully translated, and Jason hoped that it would be useful to the Flers as he laid down the spatial ring on the table that stood in front of him.

Artemis enlarged her form once they left the room, while Petri and Solaris remained by his side.
Only a moment later Jason got on Artemis' back like she was demanding, only for her to ascend into the air.
Jason continued to look back, only to see the Flers waving at him with tears in their eyes.
Through his Emperor Eyes, he could see them for quite a while, and only when he was too far apart from them did he turn around to look at Wisse who hadn't said anything yet.
Jason hadn't even noticed Wisse all this while because he was too distracted. As such, Wisse remarked,
"I have yet to take a look at the permanent world bridge at the 2nd Prismar stage, you've talked about. So we have to take a short detour."
Hearing this, Jason got distracted from his train of thoughts as he replied,
"If we're taking a detour, let me talk to someone...for a few minutes! I have only one...or maybe two questions someone has to answer!"
Wisse halted mid-air when he heard this, and Jason's Emperor Eyes perceived the surge of emotions within the young dragon as small flames erupted from his body, burning through the robe he was wearing.
Jason gulped down his saliva nervously at that sight, only for Wisse to take a deep breath before he retracted everything.
'Calm down...just think about the rewards…after we leave Argos, it won't take long before we arrive on Tagran and I can beat Jason up for every single time he annoys me thereafter!!!'
Regulating his emotions by using a specific breathing technique, Wisse spoke with a forced calm.

Jason was glad about Wisse's reaction as the young dragon would have probably already returned to Tagran if it were not for him.
As such, he didn't lie to Wisse as he answered honestly.
"I want to talk to the person, who probably sold my entire family to a foreign race several decades ago. As such, he could be said to be partially responsible for my existence… I guess?"
Jason tried to joke around with the last sentence, but after thinking about it for a short moment, he realised that this might as well be the truth.
If his family hadn't been forced to settle in Argos after being sold or exiled, his mother would have never met his father, or at least it was highly unlikely.
As such, Jason decided that he would ask Nathan a few questions without doing anything else to him.
Interrogating him could already be tortuous enough as long as Jason used every means he had!
Intrigued by his words, Wisse nodded his head as he made a decision.
"Alright, I'll come with you then. One day more or less makes no difference anymore!"
Jason was glad that Wisse supported his decision after hearing the reason, and it took only a few hours before they reached the headquarters of the Heaven's Eyes sect.
It was not even considered a detour because the sect's headquarters had been on their way to the new and permanent world bridge.
Because of that Wisse felt even better which made him release his dragon authority and aura as well as a huge amount of mana with which he simply destroyed the entrance.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})At the same time, he and Jason entered the sect nonchalantly, alarming the surrounding guards who couldn't move owing to the high pressure exerted by Wisse.
This was something Jason found quite funny to look at because he would have been forced to knock out everyone before he could meet Nathan.
At least, that would have been the case under normal circumstances but they didn't apply to the current situation because of Wisse.
Nathan sensed Wisse's aura as well as the impact of the attack on the entrance that serves as a warning, as well as Jason's mana fluctuations.
Because of that, Nathan knew that the liberation tournament had already ended and that Jason seemed to have made a new friend.
This was bad because Nathan had hoped that he would have more time to work everything out.
Taking a deep breath, he took a look at the file that was lying in front of him with a single word written on the front page- Stella.
Knowing that Jason was a halfling, who was strong enough to put a powerhouse at the Prismar stage to sleep, as well as the fact that he was not allowed to kill him due to the public view of Jason, Nathan was forced to act differently than his usual self.
As such, he had already prepared a file about everything that happened for Jason, out of fear to be annihilated in the future.
It was his fortune that he had already done everything he could, and the only task he was now left with was to remain calm and level-headed in front of Jason and his new friend.
Only a short time after they had entered the Heaven's Eyes sect, Jason and Wisse appeared in front of Nathan, but the moment his eyes fell on the dragon, all the calmness flew out of the window as Wisse's authority enveloped him.
Yet, at the same time, Jason's appearance was even more horrifying because he was using Petri's full fusion that amplified the lethality of the petrification and race specific weakening curse.
Other than that, Solaris was still in his small dragon form, which the little origin flame seemed to adore, only to hiss at Nathan who was trying to not cower in front of them.
Jason's wild aura enveloped Nathan, and despite being at a much higher cultivation base, Nathan couldn't help but retreat, submitting to Jason and the terrific strong friend he had brought along with him.
'Thankfully, I didn't kill them...with this monstrous partner he brought in my sect, I can only hope that he won't destroy my sect, or kill me!'
