Chapter 862: Execution

In no time, the news about a certain event in the Julandra region spread through the Shiman camp like wildfire.

It reached every nook and cranny and soon everyone wanted to watch the spectacle.

Meanwhile, Jason was completing his preparations to fight Lux.

There was not much for him to do, to begin with.

The only thing that could be considered somewhat arduous to achieve was to pay attention to Jennifer, and her extreme behavior.

After all, the news was about a traitor of the three races that reigned the Julandra region.

This traitor would be executed in two weeks from now at the annual Lotus blooming festival.

There would be a public execution in order to make an example of what would happen to the traitors.

Under normal circumstances, Jason would think that this was nothing out of the ordinary.

In a war-like situation,? it was obvious to take extreme measurements.

The detailed descriptions of the traitor's appearance were a clear indicator of who it was.

That was also why Jennifer's mood was becoming worse, while she was having terrible mood swings.

Ever since hearing the news, her temper would flare at the slightest issue.

The traitor the news spoke about was Luna, after all, Jennifer's Master!

Both Jason and Jennifer knew what Luna had done.

Not only had she backstabbed the royalty of the Aeus and Devir race but she had, in fact, abandoned Jennifer.

But that didn't change the fact that she was caught and that she would be executed soon.

In only two weeks Luna was supposed to be publicly executed in the capital.

Even if Jennifer wanted to rescue her, not only was she way too weak, but they were faraway from the capital.

Even after using all of their means, it would still take two months for them to reach the capital.

This meant that they would be six weeks late to reach the capital after the event had already been concluded.

And even if she somehow managed to reach before the execution, Jennifer was not sure what to say to Luna, if they got the chance to speak with each other.

Though Luna had betrayed her, she had been the only person close to her before Jason's arrival.

In the end, everything was rather complicated, and consoling Jennifer had become Jason's main task for the time being.

He didn't even think about the fight with Lux as he knew it would be over even before it started.

All he wanted to do was leave the Shiman camp as quickly as possible because something caused him to have a premonition.

It was not as if he was scared of being caught or imprisoned, but with Jennifer's unstable mental health it was only a matter of time before she would lose her sanity.

Her mind was already a mess and a single sentence from someone inside the Shiman camp would certainly be enough to make her throw a fit.

After all, trouble in the Julandra region was good for the Shadow walkers, and so was the case with the Shiman camp.

Because of that, it was highly likely for them to hear people talking about the execution of the traitor in excitement.

Fortunately, by paying attention to Jennifer's state and body language, Jason was able to take care of her to some extent, preventing an occurrence of any untoward incident.

Thus, he wanted to finish the life-and-death battle with Lux as quickly as possible.

However, when they stood facing each other in the open field that was their venue for the fight Jason realised that the Lord of Death title was probably something Lux deserved.

After all, he had replaced all the Undeads Jason had killed with even stronger Undeads including Ninad beasts!

Lux's physique was still unstable, receiving amplifications that would take time to settle, and he was adjusting to it, but that didn't seem to be much of a problem.

All-in-all the amplification of his physique was extremely important.

However, in the current situation, Jason felt that it lost its value as Lux was smiling schemingly, almost like he had planned something huge.

Jason's lips twitched to see that sinister smile, and he momentarily forgot about Jennifer's disastrous state.

No way was he going to accept being defeated by Lux yet again.

With that in mind, he stood opposite Lux at a distance of several hundred meters away from him.

He was ready to fight as Byakur manifested in his hand.

Entering a combat stance, Jason indicated that he was ready.

Meanwhile, Lux stood around nonchalantly with an extremely calm demeanor.

Both were ready to start the fight, and Linus, who had been tasked with initiating the countdown to start the life-and-death battle, did as he had been instructed.

On hearing Linus' signal, Jason rushed towards Lux as the moonlight transmuted mana intertwined with divine energy coursed through his body.

Exerting the Hermes Celeration movement technique accelerated his pace visibly.

This allowed him to cross half the distance between him and Lux in no time.

While he was rushing towards Lux, the Lord of Death fused with his strongest soulbond.

His eyes turned pitch-black, while his fair skin took upon a blueish tint and Lux's appearance began to change drastically.

Distinct death energy with a corrosive property in it that only affected the living leaked from his body.

The death energy acted like an aura, tightly enveloping Lux, before spreading out.

This made the crowd of onlookers take a collective gasp as they watched the scene unfold in front of them with bated breaths.

Residents of the shiman camp were powerless to prevent the life-and-death battle from happening.

So if they couldn't avoid it, they might as well watch the fight.

Maybe they could also observe and learn more about the natural soul fusion process from Lux.

They might not like Lux that much, but this didn't change the fact that the Lord of Death was the strongest amongst them in terms of potential, and abilities.

He was a cut above the rest because he was able to fuse with his soulbond without receiving artificial help.

As such, they decided to watch the fight which they presumed would not end well for the newcomer who dared go against Lux.

However, they were in for a surprise as they watched Jason zoom past them and reach a terrifyingly high speed within the blink of an eye.

To add to their shock, only Linus and a few others knew that Jason could fuse with one of his soulbonds that enhanced his physical strength even further.

This meant that he was yet to reveal his trump card and highest combat prowess!

Only time would tell if this was foolish or not.

At the moment, Linus couldn't help but feel that the battle was about to become more exciting than he initially hoped for.

Against his expectations, Jason held his ground and appeared confident.

His eyes flicked to Jason's so-called fiancee who was staring at the arena absent-mindedly.

Given the fact that Jennifer was lost in thoughts, she didn't seem all that worried about Jason, and it was because of this that Linus was a little excited.

Meanwhile, Jason continued to charge towards Lux, ignoring the death energy with the corrosive property that was a magnet to attention.

As the others were distracted, Lux was releasing the darkness that covered the dry soil, allowing more than a hundred Undeads to emerge from the darkness.

The sounds of rattling bones reverberated through the entire field where Jason and Lux continued to fight against each other.

The battle was growing intense and deadlier with each passing minute.

However, nobody was able to feel excited because the majority of spectators were able to perceive the Undead bodies of their comrades and their soulbonds.

This soured their mood, and without realising it, everyone began to cheer for Jason in their minds.

They desperately hoped that he would kill Lux after releasing the Undeads from the torture of going against nature's will, of being alive despite being dead!

'Go for it!' A single thought echoed through every single spectator's mind but none of them said it out loud.

They were too afraid of the Lord of Death.

Oblivious to the changing opinion of the crowd, Jason simply gave a subtle grin.

He made it clear that the horde of Undeads did little to make him feel nervous.

Rather, it almost looked like he felt that it was to his advantage!
