With the entire room enveloped in black flames, the furniture began to burn while the energy membrane of the assassins at the Prismar stage was slowly evaporating.
Meanwhile, the fastest Prismar stage assassins had already emerged in front of him owing to their high speed.
There were burns on his face, but ignoring this, the Devir, whose wings were melting, lashed out with the long spear he was tightly holding, targeting Jason's chest.
Because the flames Jason released were searing hot with numerous tiny black fire needles behind the young man, the Devir expected Jason's entire focus to be on his affinity.
Thus, he had been confident to finish off Jason, clearly overestimating his own capabilities.
Unfortunately, that was not the case for the Devir assassin. Jason's eyes gleamed lightly before he muttered,
"I can still move, idiot!"
When Jason said this, he exerted the Floating Sky movement technique at the perfect mastery before leaning forward, while twisting his body to an uncomfortable degree.
Simultaneously, he swung Byakur, only to enlarge the blade with the required rune which glowed brightly.
After the enlargement, Byakur was long enough to reach the Devir, who hadn't expected Jason to act that quickly.
It hadn't been a problem for Jason to evade the spear, which was already a great feat while maintaining the majority of his focus on the black flames.
However, Jason's ability to easily initiate a counterattack as he just did, was difficult to accept for the Devir.
He was further shocked when Byakur's razor-sharp blade continued to expand, reaching the Devir's neck before he had time to react.
'Is he really at the Lique stage?!?' This was the last thought of the Devir before his head flew through the air, after being severed cleanly from the neck, astonishing the other assassins.
Nobody had expected that Jason could kill a Prismar stage being so easy, and this was after they had read the report about the young man with golden eyes.
They had even heard about the news of him being able to intimidate the 21st Prince of the Aeus race, Leonardo, but it was exactly because of this reason that so many assassins were targeting Jason.
If there hadn't been the issue with the City Lord, or rather the fact that they had to drag Luna away by all means, much stronger assassins would have been chosen to attack Jason.
Nevertheless, it was difficult to accept that Jason, a being at the Mid-Lique stage, was able to easily overwhelm and kill a single Devir, while simultaneously imbuing fear in the minds of every single other assassin.
Unfortunately, the continued exertion was beginning to take its toll on his body and mind!
Jason had a hard time fighting without restrictions, as well as continuing to maintain both the searing flame's heat inside the room and the countless black flame needles, which were still floating behind him.
It was only due to Solaris that this was possible.
As such, he had it much easier than others would have under normal circumstances.
However, that didn't give him more time to react because the situation was already on the verge of ending in chaos as he had been forced to fight close combat in addition to the flames' maintenance.
Because of that, Jason decided that the timing was right, making him release the countless black flame needles.
As such, with shocking velocity, they shot towards the other side of the room, closing the distance between the assassins who were already inside the room, or just about to enter it.
In the restricted room, it was nearly impossible to evade the black flame needles, and the vast majority of people were affected by his attack.
After this, Solaris' essence entered their body and devoured their life force.
Unfortunately, Jason didn't have any time to witness all of this because Jennifer and the Ascendion stage assassins were already wreaking havoc inside the room, mindlessly destroying everything.
At the same time, Jason realised that some of the strong assassins were trying to target him with a seemingly unfocused attack, only for Jennifer to intervene, finishing off everyone, the second their attention was distracted.
Owing to that, Jennifer could protect him while simultaneously defeating her opponents.
Meanwhile, Solaris' flames were burning through the body of more than 20 assassins, only for the remaining ones to charge at him, still thinking that their comrades would follow suit.
However, this was more difficult than they could assume.
As such, with only ten almost unscathed assassins at the Prismar stage left behind, Jason retracted the flames that had occupied the entire room.
Instead of letting the flames burn through the energy of everyone, he wanted to enhance himself further which made him envelop his body with a thick layer of highly compressed flames.
With this, the flames turned into his armor, which could be released at once.
Other than that, these flames could boost him, pushing him ahead several meters in an instant by explosively releasing bursts of flames behind him.
Owing to the high amount of mana he had already consumed, Jason couldn't help but restrict the usage of Solaris to a certain extent.
In the end, the mana consumption to materialise the black flames was not a lot.
Nevertheless, the quantity he had summed made all the difference to Jason.
As such, by restricting the flames, he was able to replenish mana instead of using it up.
This was owing to the mana replenishing technique the first sub-area in his mind was making use of.
With that in mind, Jason began to actively attack his opponents using Byakur.
Having exerted the Floating Sky movement technique, his speed was higher than that of the assassins in front of him, giving him the chance to balance out the disadvantage of fighting multiple opponents at once.
However, this advantage didn't last long as the other assassins began to also use their unique movement technique.
Earlier, this hadn't been possible because the space was not enough for them to move.
Unfortunately, with their comrades' weird state of being seemingly fine on the outside, only to be forced to bear the tremendous pain that swept through their entire body, it was possible to exert the unique movement technique.
While observing Jason intently, the remaining assassins realised that Jason's flame had been the main root cause of all problems.
As such, they didn't hesitate to take a step back the moment the black flame armor that was tightly enveloping his body, began to move.
Jason realised this quickly, but without being able to reach his opponents anymore, it was difficult to attack them and not get stabbed in the process.
The last ten assassins were fighting with great teamwork while using the fact that the fighting space was little to their advantage.
Because of that, Jason wanted to replace Solaris inside his mana core, and allow Petri to occupy it.
However, that didn't seem to be necessary because the little trick he had in mind was working much better than he expected.
This was fortunate because Jason couldn't have been sure if the thing he had wanted to destroy was something his limited strength could even affect let alone damage.
Nevertheless, he had Solaris, whose tiny flame had been relentlessly working on burning through a specific device that hung around the dead corpse of the strongest assassin which attacked them!
"You guys should really have paid more attention to your equipment! Why leave the only rune-disrupting device by someone who died?" He simply questioned before a blazing red desert eagle manifested in his hand.
"It looks like I have no choice...now, please die for me!"
