[Author note-I just wanted to thank everyone for their great support during the last few months. You are the best readers! :D]
"Are you sure about entering close combat against the four common races alliance's army?"
Fasro asked, not sure what to think about Jason's idea.
Two days had passed since new year and Jason had just renewed his knowledge about Canir's situation.
Right now there were several small alliances that caused huge problems, however, the biggest problem was that the Drake family colluded with the Myöldra race and another race!
They had formed a small alliance with the Burance race that was another higher race with their combat specialty being their Ice and Water affinity!
Yet, instead of acting passively, Jason wanted to attack the four-race alliance of the Doom Crawl, Thudra, Ganasia, and Mildar race.
He seemed to be confident to fight against the Doom Crawls while saying that the Ariyor should pay attention to the other races!
Jason only said so because the four races were currently conquering the adjacent areas to the Shandra country.
As such, they had to help the other big families, and even foreign races, if they were to receive benefits from that!
It was also that the Ariyor race was unable to fight against the Doom Crawls, but from the provided information, the Doom Crawls were not too many.
Nevertheless, Jason didn't trust a single piece of information anymore!
He had learned the cruel truth about false or not throughout investigated information and didn't want to have a second incident similar to that in the Yaslörn caves!
"We have gathered five big clans and it would be disadvantageous if we were to hide from every single opponent! Instead, we should try to help each other by defeating the worst opponents first!
There are other races that won't be able to win against the alliances, let alone against the Drake family that colludes with the Myöldra and Burane race!
Right now, a big change is happening on Argos, and if we don't want to be at a disadvantage, we should utilize everything we can!"
Everyone was aware of the fact that the war on Argos had entered the most important phase!
At least that was what one could decipher by the news they had received.
Three races had already fled from Argos because their loss was evident, and several more races were about to follow suit.
They were barely holding onto the last ray of hope, trying to establish a large alliance with every race that was about to face a devastating defeat on Argos.
However, that was easier said than done, because most of those races were far apart from each other and some had a complicated past!
As such, there had to be a race that could combine those weak and almost destroyed races, which was in fact the Ariyor race!
This was what Jason wanted them to become, but Fasro was not sure whether this was a good idea or not.
Yet, Jason's next words were nothing but the cruel truth.
"Neither the Shandra country nor the Ariyor race are strong enough to fight against the Drake alliance! They have two higher races as support and the Myöldra race is even stronger than the Ariyor race, right? That means if everyone wants to persist stagnating in this stupid behavior, we might as well give up!"
There was no need for Jason to hold back anymore.
He didn't like the fact that everyone was trying to act reserved while facing the combined attack of multiple stronger races.
Even with five big clans and the Ariyor race, they were barely strong enough to fight against the four-race alliance that consisted of common races.
This might be a great feat, but what use was that if they were unable to defeat two higher races and the Drake family together?
Jason spoke nothing but the truth and Midra, who could barely understand what he had said began to speak with Fasro in the universal language.
Only Jason understood them, but Midra was aware of this fact.
As such he was able to hear that she was supporting him.
She didn't like to team up with common races whose army was on the verge of extinction.
Nevertheless, this was the best idea they had, and making use of right was not that bad!
At least until something else changed.
There were also common races among them that wanted to enslave mankind, but one could take care of them after the biggest threats had been taken care of!
That was logical and much better than trying to fight without reinforcement.
"Alright, let's think of a plan to make use of your idea, and if it's feasible we should employ it!"
After Fasro agreed, the others Jason had already convinced about his idea before sighed in relief.
Shane and Dalia had been unsure about his idea to search for more reinforcement among the foreign races, but it was logical.
They had more powerhouses than mankind had, which meant that foreign races were a better reinforcement than other big families and clans!
The five big clans they had gathered were barely enough to fight against a single fully armed common race according to the Ariyor race and Jason thought that this was already exaggerated!
In the end, only the Doom Crawls might be suitable opponents for the five big clans, because their only advantage was their strong physique. The weak curse Doom Crawls harbored didn't affect the human body much.
As such, the big clans and Ariyor race had to show their combat prowess while fighting against the small four-race alliance instead of other races!
If there were no major problems, the other races in the Shandra country's surroundings would accept teaming up with the Ariyor race as they were a higher race and strong enough to defeat multiple common races at once.
At least that was what one would see, and those foreign races, Jason wanted to target with this indirect advertisement of the big clans and Ariyor's strength would be dazzled by misplaced information.
Jason didn't care what would happen to those races but he needed them to help everyone else to survive!
**
Only one day had passed and the plan was already fully set up when the news of the small four-race alliance attacking another race and big family reached the Shandra country.
The Shaibi clan and Ariyor had already been fully prepared and by utilizing the fastest soulbonds and the Shaibi clan's spatial affinities, a large part of their employed army was able to leave the Shandra country and arrive in front of the battlefield less than 2 hours later!
Jason was among this part, and the first thing he did upon arrival was to supply his mana eyes with more mana than usual.
He wanted to see everything in his surroundings without missing a single piece of information.
This had already happened to him once, and it ended devastatingly.
As such he was more careful about certain things than he had been before.
Artemis' wings were manifested on his back and the soul amplification he received from Artemis, who was currently within his mana core was 100%
With that in mind, Jason knew that he was able to fight against every opponent at the Low Lique stage.
That was if they didn't have more than 300 liquefied drops of mana within their mana core!
He wouldn't hold back anymore, which had become much easier than it was initially!
Since Fasro and the other Ariyor had been asking about his background, he had acquired more knowledge about himself too!
Apparently, his Celestia aura was not the same as it had been before.
Something intertwined within it made it impossible for others to detect that he was a halfling with Celestia blood!
Only his stigma revealed that he hailed from an extremely strong race! Midra had told him that a genuine stigma one would receive during the primal bloodline awakening was rare, even more so among grand races!
Most grand races would receive their first stigma during their second bloodline awakening, thus Jason's situation was slightly unique.
'F*ck it. I'll just hold back a little bit with my stigma, and go all out with the rest!!' He told himself as he manifested Solaris' black flames around his head, with a compressed layer above his stigma, preventing anyone from seeing him.
His heart was filled with hatred and the desire to unleash his agony and wrath which he had suppressed during the last few months, was unleashed at once.
