Chapter 209: The Truth Behind Zeras And The Celestria Family 2
But his form was indiscernible, hidden behind the golden light.
Slowly he arrived before Jason who slowly floated off the ground coming to stand before the man.
“AHHH…” A small shrill scream escaped Jason’s lips on sighting the golden entity, yet blood poured out of his mouth even more.
“But, I should be dead, how did you?” Jason’s asked in shock.
“I only brought you back for a few seconds. You’ll die once again after that except this time there will be no turning back…” The voice said causing Jason to feel his hair rising.
He might have chosen to die earlier ago, but when once again faced with life, death was strangely scary.
“This war, the war between your human race and the Cydorfs. You Humans will lose…” The voice echoed out as Jason grinded his teeth together, but he knew well, it was true. The last Cydorf he fought with was hopelessly stronger than him and even killed him one of the Ten strongest humans but he was sure there were more Cydorfs even more powerful than that. The hope of the other nine defeating them was too slim it was almost an impossibility.
“But I can make you win…” The entity said as Jason snapped his head to him, his mouth forming a wide O.Of course, it wasn’t because he thought the entity was weak. This was the most powerful existence Jason had ever had eyes on since his birth.
Just the natural aura exuded was like anything he had ever witnessed. Besides, he was just brought back from death!
It’s just he never understood why a powerful entity like him would want to help humanity.
“I would give you a power, a power beyond your imagination. A power enough for humanity to not only win this war but also stabilize itself in the lower Universe…”
“Lower Universe…” Zeras muttered watching the exchange between the two.
“I am willing to accept anything so far humanity wins this war and avoids its sure extinction, but I want to know the price for such power…” Jason said with conviction.
The entity remained quiet before the tiny motes of the golden light surrounding him slowly broke off him and entered Jason’s body.
Immediately, his face changed as he felt incredibly hot. So hot it felt like he was being burned at the stake while alive.
Yet no sound escaped his mouth as he felt the energy go around his entire body, enforcing them to unbelievable levels before diving straight into his Mana core, as it began widening and widening.
BOOOM
A circular ripple emerged from his Mana core as it broke past its limit.
Middle Cosmic Rank Stage.
Yet it wasn’t the end of tiny motes of light as they repeatedly dove into his Mana core and then…
BOOM
Another circular ripple as his Mana core widened even more.
Late Meteor rank stage.
Finally, the golden mote of energy disappeared as Jason clenched his fist and felt the unbelievable power.
His heart, his ribs, and all the injuries on his body had suddenly disappeared.
And gently he landed on the ground…
“I…How!!?” Jason asked staring back at the entity but slowly, he dropped down on his knees as his two hands and forehead slammed on the burnt ground.
“Thank you…” He muttered, tears flowing down his face.
“Rise…” The entity commanded and he immediately rose.
And a small bottle appeared in front of Jason. Containing exactly nine golden motes just like the one he was given.
Amd without needing to say, he knew itvwas fot the other Nine.
“I believe that amount of energy is enough to make humanity hold your place. Now, I have two requests from you…”
“What is it?” Jason asked, with determination etched in his voice. He had just been brought back from his sure death. There was no condition he wouldn’t accept to show gratefulness for the act of mercy. Yet he noticed something strange.
He noticed the entity go still for a moment but slowly its golden beam of energy shook and something was carried out from behind it.
Something that made Zeras fall on both knees on sighting as tears uncontrollably streamed out from his eyes.
It was an infant with long silky black hair and white skin. Its eyes were closed In slumber and small puffs of air escaped its red lips as it slept beautifully.
Even though ancient times passed and perhaps an entire century, he still recognized who the figure was.
It was young Zeras!
“I want you to raise the young master like he was your only son…” The entity said as Jason stretched out his hands and received the baby in his arms.
“Young… Young master…” Zeras muttered beneath his breath line of tears floated down his face.
“And also, when he turns 17, give him this necklace. It would be the guiding star for him, guiding him back home…” Slowly a golden necklace floated over to Jason who took it in his left hand.
And reflexively, Zera’s hands moved to his neck but there was nothing on it causing a glint to flash deep in his eyes.
“Raise him well, and your race will rise from this mediocre plane to a higher one, ushering a peaceful and massively progressive era you all have never recorded since the beginning of your history.
Can you do this?” The entity asked as Jason got on one knee and bowed his head one more time.
“You have my word…” He said with conviction and when he raised his head, the entity was slowly fading away.
“But what is his name…” Jason asked
“Zeras…” The voice whispered before disappearing completely.
Immediately, Jason carried the baby in his arm closer to him before moving away from the scar-ridden land.
After that, the entire world shattered like glasses as Zeras disappeared from space.

On the long cold bridge of the tapestry of life, holding remnants of falling snow. A young man kneeled on the ground, head bent, while a liquid dripped down to the ground from his chin.
A liquid white at first but slowly turned to a deep shade of red as hours went by…
