Chapter 970 - Exploiting?
It was definitely a shocker for Jason to hear that he could communicate with his father.
After all, they hadn't been able to speak with each other for more than a minute, in total so far!
Kiat throwing this fact at him all of a sudden caused Jason to feel a little bit confused and uncertain for a moment.
But it was only a moment later, that his Celestia aura was accidentally released, and his joy swept through his aura as he began to smile brightly.
However, this joy didn't stem from the fact that he would be able to talk to his father, alone after a long time.
This was something Kiat, and even Jennifer misunderstood.
There was something else he had come up with within seconds, and it made many things much easier.
"I want to talk to my father!" Jason said with newfound determination before he added as an afterthought,
"And I want to talk to the Queen about the degree of the rewards I will obtain by cleansing Lyina of the dark and impure energies in its entirety!"
Kiat had expected Jason to be giddy at the prospect of being able to talk to his father, and not to regain his rationality within seconds.
This made him change his view of Jason, thinking that he was more impressive and clear-headed than he had assumed him to be.
Nonetheless, it was not enough to shock the Sacred Elvyr as he simply nodded his head.
"The Queen would have initiated the negotiation to begin with. The restoration project is just too important for someone other than the majesty herself to take care of."
Jason smiled lightly at this, and quickly asked,
"Do you think it will be possible for me to talk to my father before starting the negotiations?"
Having devised a plan in mind, Jason wanted to make full use of the available resources.
This was the reason for him to want to talk to his father first.
It was only obvious for Jason to be excited to be able to talk to Celestia Yaldra as he had hoped this time would come sooner or later.
However, he was also aware of the fact that his father might be in a difficult situation right now.
After all, news of the Sacred Elvyr siding with Celestia Yaldra might have already reached the other Celestia along with the fact that a few of the powerhouses that had attacked him on Manyr had been able to flee!
Thus, his father might be in a tight spot right now, and possibly even the Queen.
With that in mind and quite a few other factors that made Jason feel a little bit uncomfortable, he knew that he shouldn't let emotions get the better of him and try to be level-headed.
It was easier said than done, but he was sure that everything would be perfectly fine…or so he desperately hoped.
While Jason was deep in thoughts, Kiat didn't have to think too much about the question he had been asked as he immediately replied,
"It should be possible for you to talk to your father before the Queen starts the negotiations, but this is not something I can promise.
I think it would be better if you were to follow me to the Queen's palace. I'm just conveying her messages, and if I were to continue doing this, we would waste several months without coming to a decision, right?"
Jason liked this idea as it allowed him to finish everything much quicker.
Thus, he nodded his head before taking another glance at Jennifer, who also nodded her head.
She didn't have much to say as she agreed readily to what Jason had in mind.
From the way the Queen seemed eager for his help, he would be able to receive far more rewards than initially expected.
Jennifer understood this too, and she had a fair idea of what Jason wanted to do by talking to his father first and foremost before discussing things with the Queen.
Or at least, she believed that she understood Jason's mindset after being together for such a long time.
'I believe he will ask his father what the Celestia race requires for their True Soul Awakening.'
It was just a logical thought of hers as both of them knew that it would take the longest for them to figure out the name of the items they required for their True Soul awakening.
Jennifer was pretty sure that the six items which they had found in Zariath would be enough for her to initiate her True Soul awakening.
However, the same was not the case with Jason as he not only had a Primordial bloodline, but also a different one that was similar to another Primordial bloodline.
The latter was something they were not completely certain about, but based on the way everything looked like, one could consider the Agran race as a relatively close descendant of the Primordials race, Primal humans!
Smiling lightly, Jennifer couldn't help but fall at ease, thinking that they were far luckier than they had thought earlier.
Initially, Jason was of the opinion that they wouldn't be able to avoid trouble in order to peacefully cultivate.
But that didn't seem to be the case, at all.
Rather, their current situation could be labeled as quite advantageous as long as the Queen believed that Jason was worth the investment of numerous cultivation treasures, and exotic ingredients.
"When will the Queen have time for us to hold an official meeting?" Jason thus asked, not holding back from revealing his eagerness to meet her as quickly as possible.
The sooner he would be able to meet the Queen, the earlier it was possible for him to talk to his father.
There were many things he wanted to ask him, with the most burning question of why the hell he hadn't been able to take better care of his mother.
In the past, he had blamed her for his death in his mind, but this had just been a childish thought because Jason was sure that there must have been specific circumstances that made the entire situation way more difficult than he had thought of in the past.
Jason had clearly felt Celestia Yaldra's love for him and his mother, even if they had only spoken to each other for a minute, at most.
As such, there were certain things Jason had yet to ask and clear his doubts about.
However, he was not sure if it would really be the best to do so while not being able to talk in person.
Thinking about all kinds of topics to talk to his father, and how to become stronger as quickly as possible, Jason didn't even notice that he had momentarily lost track of his surroundings or the people around him.
Because of that, he didn't even realize that Kiat had already answered his question.
Only when Jennifer tugged at his shirt, did Jason regain his senses.
Shaking his head, Jason looked up, noticing that Jennifer and Kiat were both looking at him as the Sacred Elvyr enquired,
"Do you need some more time before leaving, or can we go now?"
This caused Jason to look at Kiat in confusion, as he blurted out.
"Now, just like that?"
