The youths, Jason could see in front of the dome looked like they were around twelve years old but the weapons and armor they wore indicated a certain degree of a wealth compared to Jason.

He was poorer than he had ever been before but he didn't mind that at all, as he had a unique soul, special mana eyes, and a beautiful soulbond.

Venturing outside the dome into the one-star wild zone Jason with Artemis circling above him, he instantly met a group of four two-star scaled wolves that attacked Jason and Artemis.

This was bad as one of the scales wolves looked bigger than the others.

Upon activating his [Mana eyes] he saw that its core almost reached the three-star wild beast rank and the Mana it possessed was also slightly larger than the other three scaled wolves.

His mana eyes detected some anomalies within the large wolf and Jason concluded that it might be a mutation or something like that, but he wasn´t sure.

Jason was slightly worried but with Artemis as his support, he went into his fighting stance to welcome his enemies.

Since Artemis grows stronger each day Jason's physique, Mana core, and even his eyesight improved along with her and in this battle, his exceptional eyesight played a big role.

The group of scaled Wolves formed a half circle and tried to surround him while Artemis attacked the scaled Wolves from behind to distract him.

Once a wolf entered a certain range around him Jason attacked it, forming it to step back, while Artemis used this chance to dive down on the retreating wolf to pierce her mana-infused claws into the scaled Wolves back.

Without infusing mana into her claws she wouldn't be able to pierce through the thick scales but with the Mana enhancement, she easily pierced into its back, injuring it lightly.

Crying out in pain the wolf twisted its head to find the culprit but this was a mistake as it was still close to Jason's range.

Jason infused mana into his lower body to increase his speed while pushing himself off to the injured scaled wolf.

The three other wolves didn't mingle around and pounced at Jason but it was already too late as their comrade died with a dagger in its throat, because Jason used the perfect timing as he noticed it was the right moment to attack.

This was because his eyes could tell with minuscule details, that the scaled wolf would turn around to Artemis and Jason used this to finish it off.

After killing the scaled wolf, Jason used its body as a meat shield because the stronger scaled wolf was already behind him in the air, which Jason predicted.

The scaled Wolf corpse was heavy but using a quarter of his mana was enough to enhance himself to throw the dead body at the pouncing wolf.

Artemis was already in the air waiting for her next victim to fall into her trap as she supervised the battle while Jason attacked the bigger scaled wolf which was taken by surprise.

Jason couldn't attack its body directly as the dead wolf's corpse was in his way but he pierced out with his dagger to cut through its paw.

Yelping out in pain the bigger scaled wolf was shocked for a second as something white dived down onto its head piercing into the eyes.

Jason and Artemis's teamwork was exceptional and not many were able to build up such teamwork within the short amount of time they were together.

One could say both were innately exceptionally connected and it was rare to see such observance and tacit agreement among each other in a battle four against two while being weaker strength-wise.

There were still two uninjured scaled wolves charging at Jason and both were only around three meters apart from him, when they tried to surround him from two sites.

Thinking that their normal tactic would work against Jason, they missed an important fact.

He wasn't alone!

While both pounced at him at the same time, Artemis cried out, pointing out that the wolf behind Jason was also pouncing at him at the same time.

Jason now knew that both were pouncing at him at the same time.

Thus he ducked down and used another quarter of his mana to increase his speed to the highest he could hold out to jump straight to the front where the blind and injured wolf was still howling in pain, pitying itself without caring about the calamity it would face a second later.

While the two uninjured wolves crashed into each other, Jason finished off the larger scaled wolf with a clean strike.

Over the last few days, Jason discovered his fighting talent which came probably thanks to his good eyesight, while the ability to see the mana flow was relatively good, even if he didn´t have anyone to compare his combat prowess to.

It was also way easier for him to detect where a beast would attack him and what its next move would be thanks to small but important details.

The two remaining scaled wolves shook their heads in pain.

Afterward, they looked at Jason furious, and seeing the dead leader they lost all remaining reasoning.

Both charged straight at him and this was the most threatening thing that could happen to Jason, as he wasn't able to defend against two beasts at the same time with a single dagger.

Fortunately, Artemis was back into the air, diving down on one of the scaled wolves which saw the threat coming at it.

Jason saw this, forcing the attacked scaled wolf to a difficult decision as he used his last remaining mana to charge at it.

Now attacked by two threats at the same time it was overwhelmed and halted its charge, betraying the last comrade it had because it wasn´t sure what to do.

Unfortunately, the scaled wolf's instincts told it that it should run away, instead of charging at the duo in front of it.

The betrayed scaled wolf didn´t know what happened but he saw the youth charging at its friend as it tried to help.

However, it could only see the youth changing its course with a big stride towards the side.

Artemis also stopped her attack after she saw the wolf halting its charge while Jason changed his course, turning his dagger downwards in order to stab into the wolf's side twisting it while continuing his run.

The wolf didn't expect Jason´s speed to increase so much more and it was unaware of its injury as the legs gave in while liquid ran down its whole site.

Its eyes became heavier with each moment passing and after enduring some pain it gave in to the slumber that awaited the wolf.

Jason was exhausted as he hadn't thought that he had to use all his mana in such a short time but his speed did not decrease as the halted wolf saw its last comrade die because of its fault.

Enraged the scaled wolf attacked Jason only to end in the same situation as before.

Artemis attacked the scaled wolf from above while Jason charged at it from the front.

Thinking that Jason was the bigger threat it charged at Jason who rolled to the side while the enhanced talons of Artemis caused red stripes along the back of the wolf.

Blood spurted out of the injury and it wouldn't take long until it would lose enough blood to sustain a heavy injury.

The scaled wolf was overwhelmed and didn't exactly know what it should do once again

Being in a desperate situation gives most living beings a boost in strength and the wolf's speed increased slightly as it turned around to pounce at Jason who was still on the bottom about to get up

Artemis was still flying up while the wolves' speed accelerated to its highest possible as it saw a green light shimmer leaving Jason´s hand.

There was nothing it could do as the Jade Iron dagger pierced in the wolf´s skull, killing the scaled wolf instantly.

Jason wasn't really good with dagger throwing but one couldn't say it was difficult to aim at a large beast, five meters apart from one with a certain degree of calmness.

And even if he hadn´t hit the skull, at least its chest would be pierced, slowing it down which would give him enough time to stand up.

Taking a deep breath, Jason felt exhausted as he pulled out the dagger before pulling out the pebble-sized cores.

Storing the beast carcasses away, Jason went inside the dome that was only around 200 meters away from him.

Each time Jason replenished his mana, took less and less time as he was becoming more and more proficiency with the process, which was entirely different compared to him gathering mana inside his eyes.

An hour later his mana was completely refreshed while his exhaustion was blown away.

Wondering about his soul world core he entered the soul world to see that the core already expelled some unstable soul energy.

Jason was now convinced that his soul was the best thing that could ever happen to him after getting back his eyesight.

He calculated that 6 hours were more than enough for the soul energy to get completely expelled and he renewed his schedule slightly.
