When Jas finished his ditation, he learned that he had been ditating for 90 days in total. He had started ditating only because he was sleep-deprived, and he had increased his Star Magic level trendously. The fact that he had never ditated for so long ant that this was bound to happen.
Still, Jas easily realized that after all that ditation and pause, he didn't feel anything wrong.
There was no spasm in his body, no discomfort, he didn't feel sleepy or hungry. The only problem was that he urgently needed to go to the restroom.
After a quick trip to the restroom and a shower, she was finally able to return to her room in comfort.
In the process, he had gotten information from Nyx and the others about what had happened and had managed to keep up to date with what was going on in the tower.
Now he was ready to go up to the 40th floor...he was just filled with the desire to eat a little bit of food, not that he was hungry, he just wanted to eat.
He quickly started walking around the palace of the vampire empire and greeted the servants who saw him.
There were no troops like knights in the palace of the vampire empire. This was, of course, because the vampire empress was indeed the most talented wizard below the 75th floor. Her magical status probably surpassed Jas, and that was incredible.
In short, Victoria, the forr empress and the new all-powerful leader, but still fulfilling her role as empress, was a person who should not be an enemy.
"Vladimir, I was going to ask you, but it completely slipped my mind. You said there are other Sun Vampires besides you, your brother Drak, but there are three more, right? What are the chances of them surviving?" Jas suddenly asked, greeting the servants he passed with a smile and waiting for an answer.
After a short while, he had the answer:
"Actually, I have no idea. Normally our essences can sense each other, how should I put it...our auras and spells are very similar, which ans we can sense them, even when I materialized myself using my soul energy I couldn't sense any of them."
After this answer from Vladimir, Jas shook his head and then said, "So they are dead. I hope their souls are in a good place."
With that, he went to the palace kitchen and asked the cooks, who were surprised to see him, for a few bites of food.
In just half an hour a huge table was set before him. Jas smiled and thanked them for the beautiful table and all the food, and indeed he managed to devour fifteen plates of food in only forty minutes.
He may not have felt hungry, but he felt like he had a black hole in his stomach.
After consuming the food, he left the kitchen to check on Victoria and the others and then ca to the throne room. As he entered, he saw his daughter Miracle and his grandmother Ruby sitting on the throne.
"You do realize that throne doesn't belong to you, don't you?" Jas suddenly questioned, and with that, the eyes of everyone in the room turned to him.
"There's nothing to be done, you weren't on the throne, Ariel has gone off to train, so the Emperor's daughter, Princess Miracle and her grandmother Ruby will take over," Ruby replied. With that Jas shook his head from side to side and then began to look around.
Jas saw that dozens of tables and chairs, hundreds of docunts, and more had been brought into the throne room. It seed that the changes that had taken place on the floor needed to be docunted.
At the sa ti, Jas saw both the old woman Datura and, rather strangely, the young warrior Yorhun himself.
As soon as Jas greeted the old woman Datura, he imdiately turned to Yorhun next to her and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I have beco the person in charge of the administration of Asgard on this floor, sir," Yorhun replied with his usual tired yet noble appearance.
Jas smiled as if he was very happy after these words and then said, "No way! So you got a promotion? Well done Yorhun, I'm proud of you, I'm happy that soone I fought side by side with got such a promotion."
He could not imagine how much those words ant to Yorhun, after all, in the eyes of many, Jas had already beco a living legend, an idol to many.
"Thank you, sir, it's a great honour," Yorhun murmured.
"I'm sorry to burden you with so much responsibility, sister, even though we have only t once," Jas said.
Victoria was particularly taken aback by the word "sister" and looked at Jas with a sunken face.
Jas smiled and then said, "Technically I am the heir to a Sun Vampire and this is your ancestor's brother, another ancestor, so I am your younger brother and you are my older sister, right?"
Victoria smiled at those words and then said a little playfully, "I never thought the man in the prophecy would call his sister, but if that's what you want, I'd be very happy."
With that, Victoria, who had been holding Jas by the shoulder, nodded and then said, "Excuse , I'm going to faint now," and then she did indeed faint from exhaustion.
90 Days of non-stop work for this young-looking old vampire woman.
With that Jas pulled out so pillows from the stairs leading up to the throne and gently placed Victoria on them and covered her up.
"Let her rest so...For Chaos' sake, how much did y'all make her work?" Jas suddenly muttered, but he knew as well as anyone that it was his fault.
After a brief check-up, Jas took his daughter and his grandmother, and with his precious Sophia in tow, he was ready to head up to the 40th floor.
On the 40th floor and beyond, everything would be much easier as there was no need to team up strictly anymore. This floor was particularly dangerous because anyone who entered it would be judged at the foot of the sky.
Emma, as usual, revealed a passage and Jas went through it without thinking twice.

Once he closed and opened his eyes, he saw the climbers around him, filled with fear. Each of them seed to be filled with a strange interest in the arrival of soone new. Others seed devastated that soone else's fate was locked here.
"You shouldn't have co here!" soone shouted.
"Idiocy!!!" scread another.
"You did so wrong, you're going to die...you're going to die like everyone else!" said another.
As one after another said this, Jas began to take steps as if he knew what he had to do.
The 40th Floor...the floor of the Sky Judgnt, the Floor of the Judgnt of the Clouds.
This was the floor that separated groups, pitted spouses and friends against each other, and where death ruled everything.
A person or group steps into the clouds and is presented with two choices.
If they answered the questions posed to them in the na of guilt, damnation, righteousness and beyond with anything other than their personality and knowledge, they would either be thrown out of the clouds at the will of the tower and most likely be disembowelled and killed alive by friends, family or others, or the clouds would release them and they would fall tens of thousands of ters to their deaths on the earth.
That was where the Heart Scales existed, Jas.
He knew this very clearly and that's why he took one look at the people shouting at him and said, "Your life is shaped by the choices you make. If you're avoiding those choices and you think you're going to die because of it, you shouldn't have co to the tower in the first place, you're better off dead."
With that, Jas walked through everyone and ca to the edge of the cliff. Imdiately he took a step forward and there was a cloud of maybe five ters where he stepped. Jas felt like he had stepped on soft candy.
And with that, he had his first question, a question he never, ever expected:
[Do you miss your first love?]
As soon as this question was ford, two pieces of the cloud broke off to distinguish between right and wrong and the no went to the right and the yes went to the left.
Jas stayed where he was for a few seconds, the re fact that he was waiting so long was enough to bring his wife Nesis down, yet he didn't hesitate to say out loud sothing that even she wouldn't have expected:
"Why the fuck would I miss a [bitch] who cheated on and was only with because I had so money back then. Honestly tower, that is disrespectful to my wife, say fucking sorry to her, dumbass."
Without thinking twice, Jas jumped to the cloud on the right, and with that, the cloud where the first question had disappeared.
As his wife Nesis waited with tears in her eyes and relief in her heart, sitting next to her mother, Jas' ti of judgnt had fully begun.
What choice he would make was up to him.
