《God's Eyes 》Chapter 433: Brute force vs. experience
Advertisement
Inside the Ariyor race's camp, there was a huge combat training ground and Jason entered it, next to Fraso and his sisters.
Ysla was drawn between being excited and bored thinking that her spar with Jason could either turn into an interesting match or become utter humiliation for the young human.
The only thoughts that prevented Ysla to think that it might be the latter were Jason's confidence, her brother's words, and the fact that she perceived something about Jason that was not ordinary.
The number of liquefied drops or mana within Jason's mana core shouldn't be the biggest indicator for his combat prowess!
In the end, she could only wait and see, how exactly their spar would turn out.
When they had arrived in the area that was used for sparrings, Jason's arrival attracted some attention.
He was the first human that was allowed to enter the combat grounds of the Ariyor race.
However, nobody said anything because Jason was with Fasro and the rest.
They were the children of one of their race's Elders and eligible to take someone from a different race with them.
Nevertheless, it was uncommon for them to do so, and the present Ariyor had mixed feelings about Jason.
He walked around with confidence, but his mana core rank spoke volumes.
At least that was what the Ariyor could see and they began to gossip with each other.
Jason ignored the gossip around him and halted in his tracks when Fasro told them that they could spar at the open field in front of them.
He and Ysla prepared themselves for the spar before they walked away from each other.
After they had reached a distance of around 100 meters, both went into their respective combat stance before Fasro started with the countdown.
Jason took a deep breath and the moment the spar with Ysla started, he exerted the weightless steps technique at the perfect mastery to accelerate his pace instantly.

He charged forward and manifested several icicles which he shot at Ysla, who had already used her affinity to create multiple quicksilver spears.
His icicles and the quicksilver spear clashed with each other and as expected, the quicksilver spears shattered the icicles into smitherness before they advanced towards Jason.
Yet, instead of halting his steps or evading the quicksilver spears which would slow his speed tremendously, Jason summoned Artemis' wings on his back which he spread open.
His feet left the ground and only one swing with Artemis' wings was required to avoid the quicksilver spears that brushed past him.
A moment later Jason exchanged Artemis, who was inside his mana core, with Solaris before he enveloped his body with its flames.
This astonished Ysla a little bit and she was unsure what the wings and black flame were. Both felt extremely weird.
Her inexperience was revealed and she panicked a little bit which allowed Jason to approach her closer.
He shot several compressed fireballs manifested from Solaris' affinity that had reached the prowess of 100 drops of liquefied mana towards her
At that moment Ysla regained her senses, but instead of trying to perceive what the fireballs were made of, she created another batch of quicksilver spears.
After shooting them out they clashed with each other.
However, contrary to Ysla's expectations, her quicksilver spears disintegrated while the compressed fireballs exploded, creating a smokescreen that covered both sides.
At that moment, Jason concealed his mana core completely while perceiving everything through his mana eyes.
Meanwhile, Ysla couldn't see anything and the mana fluctuations she released were barely enough to perceive Jason's rough position.
Unfortunately, it had already been too late and Jason emerged out of the smokescreen with several more compressed fireballs that flew towards Ysla.
From the previous clash, she knew that Jason's fire ability was weird but powerful.
It could weaken her quicksilver spears' strength by a large margin, and both the quicksilver spears and fireballs turned into equally strong forces.

As such she had to retort to a different tactic, which led her to erect a huge quicksilver wall between the two of them
At that moment, Jason's mana eyes perceived tiny fluctuations within the quicksilver wall and a quarter of a second later, Byakur manifested in his hand as he trusted it out.
Byakur, who was a part of him, was instantly enveloped with a thin, compressed layer of Solaris' black flame.
It pierced through the quicksilver wall, right through the unstable fluctuations, severing them.
This led to a chain reaction caused by Solaris' mana nullification and the whole quicksilver wall collapsed.
Jason, who had already seen this coming, jumped through the collapsing quicksilver wall as he activated his mana eyes' abyssal effect and the petrification curse which he intertwined with his killing-intent that leaked from his eyes.
He was fully aware that he was not allowed Ysla to regain her composure for a single moment.
His combat awareness and experience were much higher than hers, but the simple quicksilver spears she had created easily, were strong enough to destroy Jason's strongest attacks.
The compressed fireballs he could manifest were his strongest attack, simply because Solaris had become the strongest out of his soulbonds.
Adding the fact that he did not receive the soul amplification of a single soulbond, he was bound to be weaker than Ysla.
This was frustrating because he was confident to defeat her if he were only a little bit stronger.
Nevertheless, his overlapping attack through his mana eyes showed a slight effect, which allowed him to gain the upper hand.
Combat experience and one's perception were significant factors to decide over victory or defeat.
However, Ysla, whose body stiffened when Jason's eyes seemed to be about to devour her entire being, unleashed every ounce of strength, astonishing Fraso, and Midra, who perceived this.
"She is forced to use her whole strength?" Midra mumbled, not sure what was going on with her little sister as Jason manifested several dozen compressed, black fireballs around him.
Thanks to Solaris residing within his mana core and the Netherworld's fort body refining technique, he was able to summon a large number of compressed fireballs in succession.
His mana consumption was not too high either and it didn't take long before more than one hundred fireballs had already crashed into Ysla, burning through the mana she had released.
There was no way for Jason to approach Ysla because the mana overwhelmed his!
This would turn into a huge disadvantage for him.
As such, he had to use Solaris' flame, until the stored mana would have been used up.
At the same time, Ysla, who felt threatened for the first time in her life, couldn't help as she used every trick she had up to her sleeves.
Thus, she used a secret technique that merged her body with her affinity for a short moment as a huge quicksilver beam shot out of her abdomen area.
Jason, whose mana eyes had already perceived that something was wrong, tried to evade the high-velocity quicksilver beam that was much stronger than someone with 150 liquefied drops of mana should be able to generate.
Despite that, he knew that he would be too slow, and Jason could tell that death was approaching him at a rapid pace.
As such he was about to unseal his soul amplification curse in order to survive as Fasro had already appeared in front of him.
He lifted his liquefied hand and blocked the huge quicksilver beam that was about to obliterate Jason as he said
"Good Job humans! You've forced my sister to use her whole strength. Not bad!"

(Re)Install
After his death, Garry, AKA Gaz, is summoned by a nameless goddess to another world and tasked with a very important mission, the main characters sets out to travel around in search of a way to accomplish his objectives and live happily ever after.The catch? The mission is to save the same goddess, who've been sealed away for all eternity in who knows where. Having little to no energy left, she was unable to create a decent blessing, so Gaz is left with a weak body in a savage world that he knows nothing about.Also, did i mention he wasn't reincarnated as a human? Neither as a beast? Well...His actual body might actually not be that bad. As long as he survives the first day, of course.-------------Okay, some of you might know from Insania Online, some don't, so might as well explain it here. This is a Re: (ish) style story, with a Scifi (ish) setting and some fantasy (ish) assets (precision is overrated). This is kind of a side project I will work while I take a break from insania.This is a crazy idea i had thanks to a certain game's trailer, and decided to write it. Even if it starts fairly serious, it will probably have a lot of wacky comedy, so don't say you haven't been warned and don't try to take it too seriously. Really. If you are expecting a dramatic and heavy story, this is very probably not what you want(who knows? I'm just starting it...).
