Chapter 96 A War That Will Happen In The Future

The next time Jason woke up, only Risa was present in the room. She was reading a thick book while sitting on a chair beside Jason's bed.

Jason was about to call out to her when his stomach suddenly started growling. Risa put the book down and raised an eyebrow at Jason.

"Quite expected since you haven't eaten anything for a long time." Risa commented. She stood up and walked to the door before opening it.

She looked outside and to Jason, it seemed as though she was asking someone to bring food for him.

Risa was done quickly and came back to sit on the chair.

"Try to lie still." She ordered before placing her hand on Jason's forehead.

Risa's mana passed inside Jason's bod, passing through every inch of his body. Risa did a thorough check-up of his body before lifting her hand.

"Your body is back to normal. You can do whatever you want now." She announced with a smile.

Jason slowly sat up and started doing some stretching exercises. His body felt stiff after not moving for an entire week.

"How did you feed me?" Jason asked curiously because as far as he knew, glucose drips didn't exist in Clover.

"I just kept on replenishing your body with the help of my light element. It doesn't provide you with the right amount of nutrients but makes sure that your body remains in a healthy condition." Risa informed.

"I see…" Jason muttered before continuing his stretching.

A knock was soon heard on the door. Risa allowed the person to come inside before diving into her book again.

The door opened to revel Alfred walking inside with different types of food being carried in a large tray.

'So we are at the Bloodthorn mansion.' Jason observed as the enormous tray was placed on the bed beside him.

[ You could've asked me this too, ] The system pointed out.

'I didn't really have the time to think and ask you such things.' Jason replied with a shrug before he started eating the food.

According to Risa, all the items present in the tray would help his body make up for the lost nutrients.

Jason also wanted to use the bathroom, something he did after finishing his food. Jason spent a good amount of time in the bathroom before he came out feeling refreshed.

"So, when will we be returning to Duphia?" Jason asked curiously while reentering the room.

But before Risa could reply, someone else said it for her.

"You can leave after you have told me the details about what you saw in the 'warning' you received." Zilan replied.

The prime minister walked in front of Jason. He had been standing in the corner of the room that he had managed to avoid Jason's gaze.

'I usually leave such things to you.' Jason said to the system.

[ Excuse me but I haven't been functioning for a week as well. While you were enjoying your dream world, I was left here in sleep mode. ]

'Fair enough.' Jason agreed before looking at Zilan.

The prime minister was dressed much more casually. One might even mistake him for a handsome single father just by the way he was dressed.

"You look better in this clothing," Jason commented in an impressed tone.

"Its just normal trousers, a good shirt and jacket. Anyone trying a bit can look good in these clothes." Zilan shrugged before realizing that Jason was trying to drag him off topic.

Zilan glared at the ten year old in front of him with hopes of intimidating him.

It backfired on him when a wolf cub appeared right beside Jason and glared back at him.

Zilan knew that the wolf cub was none other than Jason's guardian and decided to avert his gaze. Even he didn't want to offend a guardian.

Jason looked at this with an amused expression. From a stranger's point of view, the prime minister of Vancouver kingdom was scared by a mere wolf cub.

That thought made Jason smile which made Zilan's jaw twitch a little.

"Jason, let's do this quickly so we can all go our own ways." However, Zilan spoke in a calm voice.

He knew that trying to intimidate Jason wasn't going to work any longer. He just mentally sighed and patiently waited for Jason to reveal things himself.

Jason felt bad for Zilan and decided to tell him about the warnings he had heard.

"A war will happen in the future."

It wasn't much yet the prime minister had a grim expression on his face.

"That girl said the same thing. I am afraid that something big is about to happen soon." Zilan muttered. "Thank you for your help, Jason. I have a feeling that we will meet more in the future."

After saying that, the prime minister walked out of the room and made his way back to his house.

There were a few things he was going to discuss with his brother, some of them including the demon they had trapped.

Jason watched him go before sighing. He had lied to the prime minister because he felt that it was the right decision.

Hearing that Amber had said something similar, he felt better about the decision he made. Maybe both of them were feeling the same thing.

Something was definitely about to happen in the future.

'Risa didn't say anything as well.' Jason observed. He had told Risa and Issac the truth about what he had heard but his grandma hadn't said anything when he lied.

[ You made the decision on your own. Also if you remember, no member of your family falls under the category of saints. ]

'True.'

"So I am free to go and do whatever I want now?" Jason asked aloud. Risa simply nodded in response.

Jason happily left the room then and started making his way over to Amber's room. He was quite curious to know what she had heard from the Phoenix.

[ Or you can just go meet her and ask how she is doing. ]

'I'll do that as well.' Jason agreed before using the system to navigate himself.

After four minutes of walking, Jason turned a corner and ran straight into Amber.

"Damn, I was just about to turn you to ashes Jason." Amber muttered as she stepped back a bit.

"I don't think that's how we are supposed to greet others."

"Figures."

Jason and Amber then smiled before asking how the other was doing.

"What did the Phoenix tell you?" Jason inquired as the two of them found a secluded room to talk in.

"It warned me about a war." Amber replied with an emotionless face. She stared directly into Jason's eyes and didn't say anything else.

Jason came to a silent understanding that Amber had chosen to lie as well. After all, he had told Zilan something similar.

'System, identify where we are being spied from.' Jason suddenly ordered.

He could tell that someone was keeping an eye on them. Amber shared the same feeling and that was why she had used Flamey's help to communicate with Jason.

[ Someone is spying on us. I can tell it… ] Amber had said inside Jason's head.

p [ I feel the same. Let's act normally for the time being. ] Jason had replied.

It had turned out that both of them could communicate with each other through their guardians. They could directly deliver messages inside each other's heads this way.

"So, I was wondering how you take care of Flamey. I have a guardian too so I want to know some tips." Jason casually asked.

Hestia had appeared around his legs and was circling around them. Jason bent down and picked the wolf-cub up in his arms.

Jason placed Hestia in his lap and started rubbing her belly, something that was a bit awkward.

'I am rubbing her belly…'

"I mean Flamey like heat a lot. Your guardian must like something as well." Amber replied after some thought.

On cue, Flamey appeared on her arm and settled down in her palm. Amber smiled and started providing him some heat using her magma element.

"I see…" Jason turned his gaze on the wolf cub while trying to determine what she liked.

[ I like Lightning and Thunder and I am definitely liking you rubbing my wolf body. ] Hestia replied while turning in Jason's lap.

'How convenient.' Jason's jaw twitched a bit after hearing her words.

He was about to provide her with what she asked but the system suddenly interrupted him.

[ Someone is hearing your conversation from the upper floor as well as from under the ground. The one below had almost slipped from my radder. ]
