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 soone's attack owing to the way they struck him, and picking up the subtle movents made by them that he would miss when he was still a rookie.
However, over ti 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 movents they revealed.
This was, in fact, a tactic utilized by so soldiers in order to confuse their opponents.
Brell seed to utilize the sa 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 mont before they happened.
Even a mont'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 seed 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 sothing Jason always did because he fought stronger opponents with a higher cultivation base every single ti.
He was not even sure when was the last ti he had fought soone at his cultivation base, but it must have been an eternity.
As such, Jason paid attention to his opponent's movents in every fight in order to be prepared.
'So...the foresight blessing will be activated every single ti I fight soone? 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 movents 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 soone with less than two-third of his speed was able to deflect his spear thrusts that were known for being extrely 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 sotis 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 mont, 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 movents beca lightning-quick, forcing Jason to exert the Floating Sky movent 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 fla next to him before he shot it at that exact spot.
Enhanced by the moonlight affinity, the black fla caught Brell off-guard.
The fla 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 co up with a counterattack.
Thus, given that he had no ti, he had to supply more mana to the mbrane that shielded the foot that had been hit.
Yet, instead of getting extinguished or expelled, the black fla was clinging to Brell's foot like a leech, sucking him dry.
The mont Brell noticed that the black fla wouldn't extinguish, he understood that Jason was still supplying mana to it.
However, that was not the entire truth which Brell realized a mont later as the fla burned right through his mana mbrane before his mana body was slowly being absorbed by the fla that increased in size.
The fla 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 seed 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 ti in which he could foresee Brell's movents was prolonged by another minuscule fraction.
Thus, it gave him barely any additional ti to co up with an outstanding move, which was simply not possible.
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 mont 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 extrely powerful as long as he knew how to use it properly!
He would have to learn how to use it properly, but that was sothing ti, 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 mont 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 seed to be a reaction to the movents he did a mont later.
'Is that his secret, his eyes? But then, he does have his tad 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 sothing that astonished Brell.
"I want to be part of the assassination group!"
/earlier, they had divided their fighters into different groups, including assassins that were supposed to attack the Oceanfolk army in the open field, instead of acting defensively like the others.
Most of the assassins were wi that were able to use the sa secret technique as he had just used, allowing him to change his shape however he pleased.
Thus, Jason was not exactly soone who suited the assassins.
Seeing doubt in Brell's eyes, Jason quickly added.
"Only a few mbers 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 . 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 ti we require to finish them off because the Oceanfolk's army will be ginormous, which you should have seen in the projected vision, right?"
