Chapter 865 - Realm Of The Souls, Ninad!

Staring at Jennifer and Jason, the others who had been eyeing them couldn't hold back from blurting out their thoughts. 

The unexpected confession made everyone comment on them and state their thoughts aloud.

They felt that the couple were just indulging in their own world, but when they saw that Jason's ears turned red all of a sudden, they couldn't hold back anymore.

"Ohh, he is embarrassed, how cutteee!"

"They're looking really good together…when will I finally meet my Goddess?"

"What Goddess, I think the only suitable partner would be a trash bin if you want to go by looks!"

"A love confession, she is soo straightforward and cute. How lucky it must be to have someone like her!" 

"..."

".."

While dozens of voices resounded around Jason and Jennifer, the two of them were just staring into each other's eyes.

First, Jason had been oblivious to what was going on because he had only been focused on finding a way of leaving the Shiman camp without anyone attacking them.

Yet, when he heard Jennifer's sudden and unexpected comment, his heart skipped a beat, while his ears turned red.

Following that the comments of the other humans short-circuited his already fuzzy brain was suddenly emptied of all kinds of thoughts.

He was mindlessly staring at Jennifer, whose cheeks turned red. 

Embarrassment made her feel as if they had been set on fire as she hesitantly mumbled,

"Is…it not fine for you, if I want to stay by your side?" 

Only Jason was able to hear the question that dragged him out of his absent-minded state.

Unable to avert his gaze from Jennifer, who was still looking straight into his eyes despite the embarrassment she felt, Jason could only swallow his saliva as he blurted out.

"Of course, you can…I would love to have you by my side!" 

Smiling at her, Jason confessed his deepest desires and felt as if a deadweight had been lifted off his heart.

He was not sure why, but the simple sentence he had just said made him feel much lighter.

Yet, the gazes of the other people that stared at them with a sly smile were the exact opposite.

Somehow, everyone had momentarily forgotten what was going on, that Jason had just killed Lux in an overwhelming manner, and that the Shadow walkers would wreak havoc the moment they were to find out the truth about the life-and-death battle.

In fact, nobody knew anything about Jason because the majority of information he had told about himself was wrong.

However, all of this was unimportant because Lux was dead, and Jason wanted to leave. 

This meant that he didn't plan to overstay his welcome and do anything grand in the Shiman camp.

The only issue was the punishment the humans would probably receive for allowing Jason to leave, but that could also be solved quickly.

If they were to tell the story about Lux's life-and-death challenge, they might as well add the false clause that Jason was allowed to leave if he could kill Lux.

Given Lux's self-confidence, the Shadow walkers should realize that Lux would have accepted this without a second thought.

Having been commanded to not intervene in Lux's business, added credibility to their reason for not pursuing Jason, which would in return mean that they did nothing wrong.

Unfortunately, thinking with a rational mind was not something many people could do in adverse situations.

As such, the Shiman camp's citizens slowly realized what was bound to happen to them.

A painful punishment awaited them, but that was not something they feared.

After all, the merciless, and cruel Lord of Death was finally dead, and their friends freed from being forced to stay alive as Undeads, under the control of Lux.

Thus, once they had teased Jason and Jennifer enough, Linus was the first to act as he pushed the two of them towards the portal.

"I saw what you've been doing in the last few days, so I kinda know that even your little girlfriend can enter the portal to the Ninad realm, but let me ask you one thing.

Did you only come to the Shiman camp for Lux, or also for the Ninad beast realm?" 

Linus was definitely not stupid, and it didn't take much effort to figure out that Jason's sole intention to approach the Shiman camp had not been making friends with other humans from Argos.

As such, Jason didn't think that he had to hide anything from Linus, even less because he didn't sense any bad vibes from the young man.

"I came for Lux because I had something to figure out. But, to be honest, it ended differently than I expected." 

There was no need to say more than that, and after hearing Jason's answer, Linus just nodded his head as he replied,

"I guess we can be glad that you arrived here because Lux was turning into a tyrant and a control freak. So his death is definitely a blessing for us…even if we would probably be punished for it."

Jason didn't say anything about this. Instead, he tightly held onto Jennifer's hand as they arrived in front of the portal that led to the Ninad beast realm.

Only then did he halt in his tracks because he saw something from far away that caused him to frown deeply.

"They're here." He stated matter-of-factly before turning towards Linus and adding

"If you guys want to become stronger, focus on getting to know your soulbonds…The way all of you treat them is disgusting, and I felt like beating you guys into a pulp when I saw the spars at the weekly comparison event…"

Jason's tone was serious and Linus couldn't help but feel offended at his words. 

Yet, recalling Jason's fight just a few minutes earlier, he was tongue-tied and simply looked at Jason.

Before, Linus had never seen his soulbonds as something else than tools to become stronger, but this thought had radically changed after watching Jason fight.

Having witnessed the way in which he fused with the flame-type soulbond, it was evident that Jason knew more about the soul fusion process than anyone else.

This caused him to nod his head as he remarked,

"I'll give it a try, but don't expect a lot from everyone." 

He tried to remain realistic, and Jason noticed this which caused him to nod his head.

Looking into the sky with his sight targeting one particular direction, he perceived the subtle mana fluctuations from a being that was far away.

The being was advancing towards them with a terrifyingly high speed, clearly indicating that it was at the Specta stage.

As such, Jason didn't waste anymore time as he bid Linus farewell, only to hear him say something as Jason and Jennifer stepped through the portal.

"The Realm of the Souls, Ninad, is not a place you should take lightly. Pay attention to the wanderi–..."

Unable to finish his sentence before Jason and Jennifer disappeared inside the portal, Linus could only shake his head in disappointment.

Scratching the back of his head, he felt that the last few days had been too weird, but at the same time, he couldn't help but feel that his encounter with Jason would only help me progress further.

"I hope they won't have too many problems with the Ninad beasts…and the others…"
