God's Eyes Chapter 955 - Approval

Chapter 955 - Approval
While Jennifer and Artemis were able to feel comfort in each other's jealousy, they looked at the playing younglings that were still fighting for Jason's attention, who was dead tired.
Sighing deeply, they couldn't believe that a few hours had already passed since he had started to play with them, and the Adult Rocs felt exactly the same.
If someone were to tell them that their younglings would act like this with a stranger, they would have never believed it…before.
However, now that they had witnessed it, the Adult Rocs were not even sure what they were supposed to do.
It was clear that Jason was not a threat to them as he was drained of energy, and not even able to move properly due to the strenuous task he had just completed.
At the same time, the young man in front of them had helped them to survive the attack of the red dragon.
Because of that, there was no reason to be wary of Jason anymore.
Unfortunately, this was not the entire truth as they had heard the vast majority of Jason and Jennifer's conversation.
This included his talks of turning all of them into his soulbonds if possible and much more.
They had also realized that Jason wasn't forcing anyone to become his soulbond as he had given the red female dragon the chance to accept or deny becoming one.
Even if they had yet to figure out what exactly being a soulbond truly meant, one could roughly gauge what Jason indicated.
It was not that much of a problem to decipher the meaning behind the words 'a soulbound beast', which was even less after Artemis had emerged from Jason's body, observing the entire situation with endless jealousy.
Jason had obviously noticed that Artemis had emerged near them, and he had hoped that she would help him to play with the Roc younglings and keep them engaged.
Yet, instead of helping in any way, she had simply stared at him before sitting down next to Jennifer.
They seemed to have teamed up against him which was kind of frustrating as he wanted to take some much-needed rest too.
However, after looking at the golden feathered Roc behave like an excited puppy, Jason couldn't help but feel as if his exhaustion was washed away.
The other two roc younglings didn't really attract much of his attention, but it was his entire being, including his soul world core that felt an innate connection to the third golden feathered Roc.
Because of that, he didn't really want to waste too much time before asking the golden youngling if he wanted to join his journey, and become his soulbond.
Yet, before that, Jason knew that he had to seek permission from the adult Rocs and ensure them that he would never harm their little child in any way.
Thus, while playing around with the Roc younglings, he had long since started a conversion with both their parents.
He was, by no means, close to them, but using his voice transmission that was stabilized by the tiny strands of mana he replenished over time, Jason was able to form somewhat of a connection with the two adult Rocs.
Unfortunately, it was still difficult to figure out how to ask if he was allowed to take the golden feathered Roc along with him on his journey.
This topic was quite difficult to solve as the adult Rocs were certainly not keen to accept his request.
Unbeknownst to Jason, the adult Rocs had already expected what was going on in the mind of Jason, and their golden youngling.
He was overthinking the entire situation, and in his excitement to bind the Roc to himself, overlook specific factors that would have helped him to figure out a proper solution for the issue at hand.
Having conversed with each other before, they had already accepted the fact that their younglings would leave their nest in the future, either way.
In fact, from the moment Rocs were able to fly, most of them would leave their home!
It wouldn't take long for their younglings to achieve this. Thus as long as the golden youngling wanted to bind himself to Jason willingly, they wouldn't go against its decision.
They were growing inclined to not vehemently refuse Jason after they had witnessed the special traits Jason had with the most impressive being God's Halo!
As such, they agreed readily, when Jason thought to have found the perfect timing to state his request.
[I'm sorry to ask this so straightforwardly, but under the condition that your golden youngling were to be willing to follow me on my journey, could I bind it to my soul?]
Somehow, Jason felt a little bit ridiculous to ask this question because it felt as if he was asking for someone's permission in order to marry their child.
This thought made him shake his head before his lips curled into a wry smile when he figured out that the golden feathered Roc was a male.
It made his thought seem ridiculous, but before he was even able to dispel the said thought, Jason received approval from both the parents.
He felt that everything was so unexpected because he had presumed them to take several hours, possibly even days to think of an answer. And even that would have probably been a definite no.
Yet, in the end, everything went much smoother than expected.
It was great, but somehow, it made him feel a little bit confused.
Some time passed, and Jason didn't even notice that the two other Roc younglings had returned to their parents.
They were not too bored to spend time with Jason, but playing amongst each other was just much more fun.
At least, that was what the two younglings were thinking, only to leave behind their sibling, the golden feathered Roc.
When Jason finally realized this, he couldn't help but gently stop the golden feathered Roc in his tracks before taking a deep breath.
"Will you join me in my journey?" Jason simply asked, hoping to receive an affirmative answer.
Oddly enough, instead of a nod or anything close to that, Jason received a vociferous chirp as an answer, as the golden feathered Roc jumped towards him.
This caused Artemis, who had witnessed everything that happened during the last few hours to ignore it as she flapped her wings before catapulting herself towards Jason.
It was impossible not to sense this, and the moment he noticed that Artemis was not about to slow down her speed, Jason acted quickly.
Letting go of the golden feathered Roc, it reached the ground a moment later and fell with a soft thump. Meanwhile, Jason lifted his body just before Artemis charged straight into him.
Barely a fraction of a second later Artemis returned to her original size, and her huge wingspan was enough to cover Jason's entire body, causing him to lose balance and fall to the ground.
Meanwhile, only several loud chirp could be heard as the golden Roc youngling jumped on Artemis' back, sharing its joy with the jealous owl, and greeting its future family member.
Now it was Artemis' turn to be confused as the glares of the adult Rocs targeted her directly.
Noticing this almost immediately, Jason, who was lying on the ground, could only smile brightly as he mumbled.
"I think this will be far more interesting than I thought!"
Little did he know just how true this was, as dozens of races were now on their way towards him.
After all, their scouts had found the first clue about the halfling of a Primordial being, whom they had been searching several years for!
