《God's Eyes 》Chapter 42: Lie-detecting ability
Advertisement
Jason was slightly confused until he gathered his thoughts and concluded that he underwent a test.
Greg was still looking innocently around not knowing what's going on while Mr Fler stood up and went to the cage while saying.
"My wife would have accepted you even if you weren't able to defeat five-star wild beasts because of Greg.
Figuring out your attitude and the possibility of you trying to exploit us was more important for us because we don´t want our son to get hurt!
To be honest, we still can't figure out what you really want or if you really want to befriend Greg but at least I know that you didn't directly lie to us.
I also hope that you don't mind us testing you because we had already a few youths who befriended Greg and even Malia because of our wealth.
Both Greg and Malia have excellent soul awakening and even high nobles and big family heirs try to sugar coat them but we haven't seen a single sincere one
At least you are telling the truth!
They weren't sincere and hurt our children's feelings after betraying them.
We don't want to see our kids suffer if we can prevent it, maybe you can understand us to a certain degree.
If you really killed five-star wild beasts with the help of your soulbond, then your combat prowess and teamwork should be pretty good considering the short amount of time both of you are together."
Turning the subject, Mr. Fler continued
"And seeing this scaled wolf, it should be a leader of a slightly bigger pack as they instinctively follow the strong.
We can also make a test about the scaled wolves' potential right now. It shouldn't take too long"
Finishing speaking Mr. Fler opened the small cage and took out the sleeping scaled wolf.
After taking out a syringe to take some of its blood, he vanished from their sights.
Jason´s eyes widened in shock as Mr Fler just disappeared from his sight, even his exceptional eyes could only see a blur where he stood before nothing was left behind.

'Did they accept me or not?' he was still confused but asking would be a little bit too much and Jason decided to wait with his jaw open as Mr. Fleer's speed was extremely fast
Greg and Malia were accustomed to their father's speed but Jason was still sitting there lost in thoughts.
The whole situation was over so quickly and Jason was more than confused when he remembered something Mr. Fler said a moment ago.
"Why does he know I didn't lie?" Jason mumbled.
Greg heard him and said proudly
"My father has formed a contract with a mutated miniature Jade bat which is an extremely weak magical beast.
Nevertheless, it´s hearing is exceptional and he probably listened to your heartbeat to detect if you lied"
While Greg said that his mother looked dumbfounded at her son….
Shaking her head in disbelief she wondered where this naive stupidy came from.
Was he really their child?
Jason was also astonished that Greg revealed his father's secrets and was slightly ashamed.
Clearing his throat he wanted to explain Greg's mistake to him as a small fist hit Greg on the back of his head, causing him to fall from the couch.
"Ouchh... Why Malia?" Greg looked at his sister with sad eyes causing Malia to throw another fist that he evaded by rolling around on the ground
"How can you be so stupid? You know that one shouldn't reveal soulbonds and their characteristics including what the soulbond shared. And to add on its not even your own soulbond but your dad's"
Mrs. Fler looked at her daughter still dumbfounded but now it was because of Malia's violence.
She didn't know how such a beautiful and delicate young girl could change so fast once her brother annoys her.
'Will she find a boyfriend' thinking further she was shocked
'She wouldn't beat her boyfriend up, right???' Gabriella furrowed her brows, thinking about that.
Meanwhile, Jason was smiling seeing both of them engaging in a small skirmish with each other and Artemis who had remained silently on Jason's lap opened her eyes before she flapped her wings to soar into the air.

Seeing the sibling pair engaged in a small battle, Artemis cried out and circled above then cheering them up.
She liked both of them as Jason transmitted a comfortable feeling for both of them.
Looking at Jason's soulbond circling above them, crying out sometimes which seems to be laughter, Mrs. Fler smiled lightly before averting her gaze to Jason, who looked at her kids with a gentle smile.
Now she finally understood that Jason didn't want any benefits from them and it would be a shame to leave him here while they left for good.
Taking him with them shouldn´t be much of a problem.
Even if his talent was bad, Greg and even her daughter who seems to be a cold-hearted girl in public could be themselves while Jason was there.
They didn't have to adjust their behavior to please Jason in any way.
Jason looked at the siblings for some time before he looked at the big cage with the eagle inside.
He wasn't sure if he was allowed to ask about this but Jason didn't think there would be much harm in it.
"Was this eagle caught by Mr. and Mrs. Fler during the last few days?"
Jason was curious about some things and Mrs. Fler noticed that and she averted her gaze to him.
"This greater storm eagle is a magical beast and was caught by us two days ago and it will be our client's next soulbond."
Looking at the greater storm eagle, Jason wondered if forming a contract with a matured magical beast without future potential would be that good.
If the client was only searching for a normal magical beast to get a combatant, the shared amount of strength and mana, it would be fine but there wouldn't be any increase in the client's soul energy and the chances that a wild magical beast would rampage without forming a deep connection through their soul was also not small.
It was dangerous to form a contract with a matured magical beast and not worthwhile if the beast had no potential left.
If a magical beast was a cub it would take some time to mature and with this time it would probably form a deeper connection with its master which would in most times be strong enough to prevent a rampage.
That was added to the fact that cubs were easier to tame and raise.
Trying to tame a mature wild magical beast? Good luck and have fun.:: Not only is the soul energy needed extraordinary large, but there is also the problem with the temper of matured beasts.
Jason's facial expressions were somehow complicated and he wasn't sure if he should say something or not as it was not his business if the client wanted to form a dangerous matured magical beast that didn't have the chance to improve in the future.
Greg and Malia had stopped their brawl some time ago and they looked at Jason as his expression seemed to be uncomfortable.
Gabriella noticed the same and she wasn't sure why but she somehow wanted to ask what was wrong with this magical beast to make Jason change his expression like this.
She knew that Jasons' 'gut feeling' he mentioned earlier was something else and grew curious about his opinion as Greg got a very strong first soulbond and apparently Jason's first bond also seemed somewhat unique.
Now if the scaled wolf he brought to them also had some potential, it would mean that it couldn't be a coincidence anymore.
She smiled lightly at Jason to encourage him while saying
"It's fine, just say whatever is on your mind"
Jason pondered how to put it simple before replying
"This magical beast's potential is already completely used up. There is no potential left for it to reach the next rank. Contracting it, won't give many benefits, rather it should be quite dangerous, right? Why should someone contract this beast?"

Hail the King
When the common folk hear of the Hell King, they think of many different things"It is the king of monsters!" "A calamity unfolded that knows nothing but destruction" "The true pinnacle of hatred and wrath." "A savage demon that eats children" "It's no doubt the king of despair as well as every child's bed monster." However, when you ask those scholars of ages long past, they will answer "It is one of the many riddles of life, one that no man has yet solved." "It is a great question, one so great that you shouldn't ask." "I honestly don't know." "Truly child? Since youth have I dreamed of meeting it, and you expect me to fullfill such a task in my lifetime?" "Nobody truly has any evidence it is evil, yet at the mere mention of the name I tremble in fear."

Nobody even knows where the stories of the Hell King come from, and yet everybody knows them. This is a story about a broken man, a man cursed by the heavens, an enigma to the whole world, a ruler of a dead kingdom and a monster born out of despair. "I wish not for women, I wish not for gold nor do I wish for happiness. All I wish for is to be granted eternal rest."

The Choice is Not Yours
Author's Note: (As of November 20, 2021) I rewrote all the chapters perhaps more than a year ago, but haven't announced that I did so. Because that kind of announcement would include something along the lines of, "I'm working on the story so expect new chapters!" But the truth is, I lack motivation to do anything. And I would hate myself if I broke a promise. I'm extremely sorry if you have been patiently waiting for uploads. These days, I've been studying, not well, but studying somewhat. I will definitely bring more to show, with regular uploads. If not this story then there's another story I've been writing that's really exciting to me. It's not exactly similar to this story since it has a male lead and he is a baneful asshole with even less morals. I hope you'll like it when it comes to existence. And I'll leave my announcement off with the aforementioned promise. Meet Amber, a tomboyish, unstable, and cheeky lass who likes to keep to herself. According to her, she'll live the rest of her life on auto-pilot mode, awhile holding onto the few things that make her remotely happy. However, she forgot that people never really leave you alone, be it humans or even the Gods. And exactly that happens, ending her monotonous life on such the Gods' whim. But at what cost to her? Will she be able to hold onto the things she holds dear? Or will she fail miserably and lose herself in the process? That's what the Gods want to know. Disclaimer: I do not own the cover photo.Warning: If you are easily triggered, I am not writing this novel for you.

Smoking Bandits
With a gaze that was hard to describe, Lark stared at his body in the mirror. Not his body as a human, but his other body. Head of a reptile with rows of sharp teeth, a 180 cm tall body that is full of muscles, covered in scales formed green and black tiger stripes. Clawed hands and feet, with a tail strong enough to crush an adult neck. 'Man. . . can I still be called a human?' In the end, with a deep sigh Lark changed his form back into a human. A moment later, he came out of the room wearing a combat dress, tactical belt with shoulder strap, and jungle boots. While inserting a magazine into an AK-102, Lark muttered. 'Whatever, time to hunt Orcs.' *****
