Chapter 167: Trust?

Jason was already standing, ready to go back to the arena, where the other challenges were still ongoing, as Old Drake said something, causing him to hold in his tracks.

"Jason, even if your background is amazing, it's always better to be careful and more suspicious about everyone and everything than trusting anyone you get to know, only because you receive benefits from them.

Humanity needs a brave new generation and you're a promising grain that is about to blossom."

As he finished, Old Drake stood up, before he walked out of the office after he told Max to do whatever he wanted to.

Old Drake didn´t fear his great-grandson's supreme ability to cause trouble anymore, as he already got to know Jason, which was his biggest fear.

This meant Max could do whatever he wanted to, as long as he stayed on Astrix, without causing too much trouble, like demolishing Cyro-City.

Even if he watched over Max, it would be useless, as such, he loosened the strings around him.

Jason´s gaze followed Old Drake, as he was pondering what exactly he meant with his words.

It was only obvious that he shouldn't trust anyone, but did that mean he shouldn't trust Shane at all? And what about Dalia...was she implicated in this mess or did everyone think she died already?

Somehow, Jason felt suddenly worried, without knowing why, because he was sure that he could trust Dalia to a certain degree, while Shane felt like a locked book to him.

There was something important hidden from him but Jason wasn't sure what exactly it was.

Previously he thought that his trust was hard to earn to the fullest and only thought that the Fler´s deserved some trust from him.

Furthermore, he was still unsure about the dispute between the big families, clans, and his masters as he himself hadn't seen anything from his own perspective, which would prove either his masters' side wrong or the other clans and big families.

It was easy to tell him all kinds of stories through their perspective while manipulating them slightly, in order to look better or maybe to let someone else look like the villain in the story, while someone else was it initially.

In order to figure out whom he could fully trust, Jason would have to know everyone´s background in addition to Argos´s true history.

In the end, Jason knew that he only trusted himself, Artemis, Scorpio, and his late Mother completely. He would die for them if it was needed to save either of them, while the Fler´s could be placed immediately after them.

Seron was still young and more naive than he was and Jason wasn't sure if he should trust him completely, as he could still be manipulated by his family, which was definitely a disadvantage.

Till, Shane and Dalia were always nice to him and gifted him many things, like the opportunity to split his mind, which were in the end, however, rather painful.

Furthermore, there was the chance to see the Goblin settlement and the opportunity to gain a huge fortune, which brought him the black origin flame.

The most important aspect that caused Jason to trust Shane and Dalia more than Till was, however, that Dalia revealed her physique to him in addition to her offer to cleanse his beasts, which would harm her.

WIth ill-intentions, she would have hidden a part of her capabilities in order to prevent any kind of pain.

In the end, it was extremely difficult for Jason to figure out whom to trust and who he should label as suspicious, without further information.

As such, Jason decided to think of ranking everyone roughly in order to figure out whom to trust more and which type of human should stay as suspicious in his opinion.

He trusted his soulbonds´ to 100% because he raised them in addition to the common control one had over their soulbonds, as long as he possessed enough soul energy.

Other than that, he didn't trust anyone fully, even though the Fler´s were the closest behind his beloved soulbonds.

After them, Shane and Dalia were the two he trusted the most after the Fler´s, while Till and other members within the big clans were still ranked as `suspicious`, which included Seron, even if he was ranked in-between his masters and Till.

As for Shane and Dalia, as long as they didn´t force him to do anything he didn't want to, which could additionally damage anyone around him, Jason would trust them as much as possible because his gut feeling told him it was the best thing to do.

The others within the office were already standing and about to go when they noticed that Jason being deep in thoughts about Old Drake´s words which caused them to feel somewhat weird.

While Max and Seron could only partially understand Old Drake´s words, Till knew exactly what he indicated.

As such it was only obvious what Jason was thinking about as he gazed at him with a pondering expression.

Right now, Jason´s potential was at its prime, and even more important for him should be how to increase his combat prowess, because the foreign races seemed to come closer towards Canir with each day passing.

Unfortunately in Till´s opinion was only that Old Drake´s words were correct.

Mankind was filled with greedy and hideous humans that would do whatever they could in order to strengthen themselves, even if it could hinder humanity's advancement.

Meanwhile, some humans even associated with foreign races in order to become stronger as they were promised mountains of resources, one could only dream of.

It was even unknown which big clans associated with foreign races or if humanity could ever unite under the current circumstances.

The good-meant words Old Drake spoke were definitely meant for Jason in order to overthink everything his new Master told him.

In the end, it also included everything others said because the big families that governed the islands could also spread a twisted history.

However, it was weird for Old Drake to say something like this, because it would inevidently cause Jason to suspect him too, which Till found weird.

He also thought about Shane who he knew was alive, but he wasn't sure if Dalia was still alive or not.

Still, it was highly likely that she was still alive like Shane, as both of them vanished roughly at the same time.

At least he sincerely hoped so.

Jason came back to his senses and noticed Till´s complex expression that caused him to smile lightly, as he could roughly understand what his teacher thought.

Shaking his head lightly, Artemis was troubled to stay on his shoulder, as he went out of the office immediately after Till, who was faster than him to jump out of his train of thoughts.

Entering the combat arena only one minute later, Jason pondered who to pick as his opponent in order to regain his special combat class seat.

During the whole week, the ranking changed a lot, which caused him to scan through all mana cores before he was able to make an unwise decision.

He wasn't sure whether he should feel proud or embarrassed about their 6th affiliated school´s strength, as most of their seats had been replaced by the other five associated schools.

But even so, their strength was still better than initially expected and Jason couldn't help but praise his classmates in his mind.

After he scanned through all mana cores, Jason gained a rough understanding of everyone´s capabilities and now there seemed to be another problem.

Which poor student should become his prey?
