After they had entered the banquet hall, Jason's premonition had been found to turn out to be correct. It was annoying, but Jason had to translate everything spoken by both the human embassy and Olympus federation, without making any mistakes.
Though he had gotten used to his temporary translation facilitator role, he wondered why the old dragonewt that was also able to speak in the human tongue didn't turn into their translator.
Little did Jason know that the old dragonewt was doing exactly that, proving that Jason was not deceiving them by sharing wrong information.
He was a neutral individual as a halfling of the human race and another race, and thus the best person to become a translator in the current situation.
However, at the same time, Jason could deceive either side if he wanted to, which was something they had to prevent.
Setting up a wrong soul pact could bring forth devastating consequences.
