Chapter 779: Foresight

What Jason could see was not only the trajectory Brell's spear was currently following but also where exactly it would be a fraction of a second later.

Years before, Jason had already learned to foresee someone's attack owing to the way they struck him, and picking up the subtle movements made by them that he would miss when he was still a rookie.

However, over time passing and a significant increase in their cultivation, his opponents were becoming more ruthless. They were now attacking him deceitfully, with attacks that didn't follow the subtle movements they revealed.

This was, in fact, a tactic utilized by some soldiers in order to confuse their opponents.

Brell seemed to utilize the same tactic but to his bad luck, he could see a faint white glint could be seen in Jason's eyes as he evaded every single attack of him.

Currently, they were not in a serious fight, and Brell was holding back, but so was Jason. He didn't even insert any mana into his eyes in order to allow his Emperor Eyes to see everything down to the finest detail.

Yet, he was still able to foresee the attacks a minuscule moment before they happened.

Even a moment's prior notice of knowing where, how, and when he would be attacked, could be described as a God-given ability, and it looked like the Sacred Squirrel had transferred it to him, just like that!

The foresight ability itself was not very powerful because it required the constant supply of blessed energy according to the information the Sacred Squirrel had transmitted to him upon binding it.

However, it seemed to be a little bit different after the blessing had fused with his Emperor Eyes, just like the petrification curse.

From the looks of it, the foresight ability, which was one of the most difficult blessings to cultivate for the Sacred Squirrel, was activated once Jason focused on his eyes, granting him to see every little detail of his surroundings and his opponents' moves.

That was something Jason always did because he fought stronger opponents with a higher cultivation base every single time.

He was not even sure when was the last time he had fought someone at his cultivation base, but it must have been an eternity.

As such, Jason paid attention to his opponent's movements in every fight in order to be prepared.

'So...the foresight blessing will be activated every single time I fight someone? That's...amazing!'

In the end, he still required the necessary physical strength in order to evade Brell's attack, but given the fact that he had learned a lot about movements and that he was able to see them just before they happened, it was possible for him to evade them.

Brell was shocked about the fact that someone with less than two-third of his speed was able to deflect his spear thrusts that were known for being extremely fast.

He might not be a being that had cultivated in the path of Pryr just like a few of their mutated brethren, but that did not matter as they were sometimes too slow to follow suit either.

With that in mind, Brell increased his speed before he began to actively approach Jason, intensifying the seemingly relaxed battle within an instant.

Circulating the stagnated mana through his body, Brell's entire body inflated for a moment, giving Jason the illusion that the grand tribe chief had turned into a gigantic human-like mass of mana.

Brandishing the spear before thrusting it once again, Brell's movements became lightning-quick, forcing Jason to exert the Floating Sky movement technique.

Yet, instead of allowing Artemis or Petri to occupy his mana core, Jason felt that he had to test the new ability of his eyes a little bit more.

Knowing where exactly Brell would step just a fraction of a second before it truly happened, Jason summoned a black flame next to him before he shot it at that exact spot.

Enhanced by the moonlight affinity, the black flame caught Brell off-guard.

The flame was currently weaker than it would be at night when moonlight was shining on Jason but it was enough to surprise and distract Brell.

He didn't expect that Jason would be able to predict his next move, dodge it as well as come up with a counterattack.

Thus, given that he had no time, he had to supply more mana to the membrane that shielded the foot that had been hit.

Yet, instead of getting extinguished or expelled, the black flame was clinging to Brell's foot like a leech, suċkɨnġ him dry.

The moment Brell noticed that the black flame wouldn't extinguish, he understood that Jason was still supplying mana to it.

However, that was not the entire truth which Brell realized a moment later as the flame burned right through his mana membrane before his mana body was slowly being absorbed by the flame that increased in size.

The flame was only the size of a thumb before, but it didn't take long to increase in size, strength and intensity.

'You are not the typical close combat fighter, are you, Jason?' Brell thought, perceiving that Jason had already prepared a new attack.

Attacking Brell with Byakur, he released a large amount of mana into his Emperor Eyes in order to see if the foresight ability would be strengthened through it.

Fortunately enough, this seemed to work, but the efficiency of mana in comparison to the Sacred Squirrel's blessed energy was bad, to put it nicely.

Even after using a large amount of mana, the fraction of a second's time in which he could foresee Brell's movements was prolonged by another minuscule fraction.

Because of that, Jason used the most basic attacks that didn't require any preparations such as throwing a single fireball after Brell, or manifesting a small pillar of ice on the spot Brell would set his feet on.

Through this, Jason could distract Brell, attack him the moment he was distracted, and once Brell was pressured enough, it was even possible to use the basic affinity attacks to throw him off his balance, initiating a finishing blow.

Unfortunately, before he could deliver the last blow, Brell, who had had enough of his small tricks, used a secret technique to change the form of his feet.

This was annoying, even more so, because Brell's speed increased further.

Yet, it gave Jason enough information to know that the foresight blessing was extremely powerful as long as he knew how to use it properly!

He would have to learn how to use it properly, but that was something time, his analytical skills, and relentless practice would allow him to achieve.

This, Jason was confident of.

With unwavering determination, Jason continued to fight, giving his best, but owing to his inexperience of the foresight blessing, he was losing his upper hand the moment Brell had gotten the hang of what Jason was doing.

Their first spar ended shortly after, and Brell couldn't help but stare at Jason in doubt, questioning how Jason's every move seemed to be a reaction to the movements he did a moment later.

'Is that his secret, his eyes? But then, he does have his tamed beasts...and this weird fusion ability...Just what kind of being is he?' While Brell was confused, Jason was deep in thoughts, only to announce something that astonished Brell.

"I want to be part of the ȧssassination group!"

/earlier, they had divided their fighters into different groups, including ȧssassins that were supposed to attack the Oceanfolk army in the open field, instead of acting defensively like the others.

Most of the ȧssassins were Mewi that were able to use the same secret technique as he had just used, allowing him to change his shape however he pleased.

Thus, Jason was not exactly someone who suited the ȧssassins.

Seeing doubt in Brell's eyes, Jason quickly added.

"Only a few members of the Oceanfolk should be able to fly. As such, I want to use my affinities to attack them from the air.

This will force the stronger individuals of marine beasts that can fly to pursue me. A small team of the strongest combatants would be more than enough to finish them off.

However, in that case, we will have to pay more attention to the time we require to finish them off because the Oceanfolk's army will be ginormous, which you should have seen in the projected vision, right?"
