It seemed like the patriarch lost his interest in Jason, which would have almost caused him to shout out in joy if he was not being surveilled by a few powerhouses around him.
As such, he had to put on a charade of observing the ground with interest.
He hated to behave like this to the core, but he had to endure it for now until he would become strong enough to defend himself!
Old Drake was discussing things with the patriarch, calling Jason a prodigy, while the patriarch retorted that he was barely at the 4th Adept rank which was not even remotely considered as prodigious for a 14 years old youth, even if he was from Astrix.
To highlight his point he even named Seron, who was crippled until six months ago.
Smiling lightly, Jason couldn't help but think, 'I also started with my journey six months ago and I'm stronger than Seron...What crap is he talking about without having gathered any information?'
