Last Wish System

by S.H.A aifu

In a universe where the great experts can reincarnate, Yale Roanmad reincarnated with almost no memories of his past life and didn't know who he was. Despite the problem with his memories, Yale had obtained a strange legacy from his own past life the Last Wish System. Yale, who remembered the pain of dying, decided to turn strong to avoid suffering the same pain again. Moreover,

289 World Authority

"Now I need to look for another clan head for the Zhan Clan. That bastard killed anyone who could be an obstacle for him, so it will be difficult finding someone decent."

Although Liye didn't care too much about the Zhan Clan, he didn't plan to let it turn in an anarchy because they were still his descendants and he planned to use them to clean the Revgen Empire from the True Empire.

After all, Liye could beat the great powers, but there were a lot of small ones across the Empire and Liye's time was limited, so it was better to delegate the small fries to the noble clans.

After some minutes looking all the possible candidates, Liye teleported towards the place where an old woman was resting.

That old woman was at the 5-star Sage Rank and mainly worked on healing. Moreover, since she didn't have any interest in power and was loved by almost all the clan to the point that almost everyone called her grandma, the previous clan head didn't try to harm her.

"I pay my respects to the ancestor."

The old woman kneeled when she saw Liye. Liye didn't try to hide, so for someone at the Sage Rank, it wasn't difficult to know what had happened.

"From now on, you are the new clan head of the Zhan Clan."

The old woman didn't seem surprised by Liye's words.

"Ancestor, I am not someone who could lead others, and I don't have any interest in power."

She had never involved herself with any of the political affairs of the clan, and she even maintained a neutral position by not joining any faction. She healed anyone who asked her for a healing and avoided making enemies even with the dire situation inside the clan.

However, she wasn't like Ange, who avoided any form of harming others, that old woman hated the people of the True Empire and the previous clan head, but she knew that trying to oppose openly to them would just provoke an internal war.

Thus, she worked on the shadows to save the lives of those who fell in the plots of the True Empire or the clan head. Given that everyone knew about her personality of healing anyone who asked her, no one thought that she was deliberately interfering of their plans.

When Liye killed the members of the True Empire, that old woman didn't feel any pity for them, and the same went for the clan head's death.

"I know that. You don't have any interest in power, but you did your utmost to save the lives of the members of the Zhan Clan without being discovered by those traitors or that shameless clan head. The Zhan Clan doesn't need a leader hungry of power, needs someone who cares about all the members and wants the best for them."

The Zhan Clan had been heavily damaged, and even though the traitors died, there were stills several factions that had conflicts with the others. Thus, someone like that old woman who didn't belong to any faction and didn't want conflicts int eh clan was the best person to take care of the Zhan Clan.

"I am not capable, but I will follow ancestor's orders."

The old woman didn't try to continue rejecting after seeing that Liye understood very well her personality.

"Ancestor, may I ask a question?"

Liye nodded.

"Your body looks like the body of the youngster who has a bounty on his head issued by a faction of our clan. May I know if you two have some relationship?"

The previous clan head never bothered about who asked for a bounty, but that old woman was different and wasn't happy when she saw that members of the Zhan Clan wanted to kill another member of the Zhan Clan by issuing a bounty.

"We are the same person. That is my identity after reincarnation, to think that those fools would ask to kill their own reincarnated ancestor, they deserved their deaths."

The old woman had already guessed something like that, but after confirming it, she kept in mind helping that faction that supported Yale's mother as that faction had turned extremely week in the past years till the point that had almost disappeared.

"If you have nothing else to say, I still have some matters to do."

Liye waved his hand, and the old woman's bloodline reached the perfect grade. Then, Liye disappeared from the Zhan Clan.

When he improved the old woman's bloodline, he also improved the bloodlines of other members of the Zhan Clan that had a good moral character. However, no one else obtained a perfect bloodline.

Liye didn't head towards the Tofesh Clan nor the Hyeran clan; instead, he appeared just in front of Revgen giving him a scare.

"Don't appear so suddenly; you scared me. Wait, your power… I can't see through your level; have you recovered your powers?"

Revgen's eyes shined with expectation because he knew very well the prowess of the man in front of him.

"Temporally, I should have about forty hours until the power is exhausted, but if I use my strength, the time will decrease quickly."

Origin Link was a forbidden skill for recovering the power of the previous life, so its length was much higher than the side effect of the Death Bloodline.

"Tell me about the current situation."

Revgen knew that hoping for Liye to recover all his power in such a short time was impossible and that it made more sense that he had just temporally recovered it, but even knowing it, he couldn't avoid hoping for that to become true.

After that, Liye told Revgen about everything that had happened, including the topic about his memories and the Mysterious Expert.

"So, that is how it is. Don't blame me for not deducing it from beforehand; you are way too unpredictable as always. You should have sent me a message when you awakened the last time."

At that moment, Liye finally understood about the Condensed Essences that Yale had received, the reason for the lack of memories and why the Mysterious Expert was working of the shadows.

"The time of the side effect of the Death Bloodline was too short, and I was hoping that my oldest friend would understand me better."

Liye had never told about the Origin Link to Revgen before, but he thought that would be obvious that he would have that type of trump card for a dangerous situation when he was weak after reincarnation.

Revgen indeed thought that Liye had some trump cards, but he never thought of such a powerful trump card.

"Let's stop the chit-chat. I will check all the traitors on this continent, and then, you will order the Imperial Family and the Noble Clans to kill all of them."

A powerful aura surrounded Liye, and the world laws of all the continent reacted at that moment. Liye had obtained temporally the control of the world laws thanks to the use of his second level world authority.

The person who creates a world have by default a first level world authority and could do anything in the world without any effort. Unless the world creator denied it, any children or direct disciples would also obtain some world authority, but the children would only obtain a second level world authority that required more effort to use, and its power was limited.

As for the direct disciples, they would obtain a third level world authority that barely let them feel the emotional state of the people in the word and even in that case required a lot of effort to use.

Revgen had a third level world authority, but he barely used it as it wasn't too useful. In fact, Ange as Liye's child also had a third level world authority which she used in her past life to act as the sacred maiden and help the people who were suffering.

Five minutes later, Liye opened his eyes, and the World Laws stopped working after Yale made them create some scrolls with the locations and names of those who belonged to the True Empire.

"Take those six scrolls, one for the Imperial Family, one for each of the four noble clans and another one for you to check the progress. The names of the killed ones would cross automatically, and when some traitor is within a radius of one kilometer, the name will shine. Sadly, a second level world authority is too low; I expended ten hours of my remaining time in just five minutes, and I only managed to scan this continent."

The scrolls had imprinted the information obtained from the World Laws and were the best resources for their mission of cleaning the continent of members of the True Empire, but Liye had needed to sacrifice one-fourth of his remaining time.

"The Tofesh Clan had yet to be cleaned of traitors."

Revgen didn't dislike the idea of the noble clans helping to clean the Revgen Empire, but first, the clans needed to be cleaned.

"There are only five traitors in the Tofesh Clan; it seems that they didn't put too much effort on them since they didn't focus in battle. Just order the Imperial Family to kill those five ants, and the Tofesh Clan is clean."

Those five were at the Grandmaster Rank, so it wasn't hard for the Imperial Family to kill all of them.

290 Partial Healing Method

Revgen went to prepare the Imperial Family and the noble clans for the start of the final war against the True Empire in the continent.

Liye would be the one in charge of dealing with the Hyeran Clan, but as all the attacks should happen at the same time to avoid any mishap due to the danger of any information about the attack leaking to the others, he was forced to wait until Revgen finished his preparations, so he entered into the Storage Space.

The place Liye chose to appear wasn't Aiwai's house nor the place where the others had been; it was a random point where no one else could see him.

"As expected, it is just as I was told, although I can detect the Condensed Time Essence and the Condensed Space Essence, I can't absorb them despite being able to use their power while being here. It looks like Yale will need to absorb them himself."

Liye knew that absorbing the Condensed Time Essence, he would be able to heal Aiwai, his disciple, but he wasn't able to absorb any condensed essence that wasn't already in his body before Yale activated Origin Link.

After confirming that he had no way to absorb the Condensed Essences, Liye teleported to Aiwai's house. In fact, as the house was big, he fixed the teleportation destination to be at Aiwai's side.

Aiwai was tired from crafting weapons and armors, so she hugged Wyba and dragged her to take a bath together. Such action wasn't something weird for her as she did at least two times every day.

However, Yale was completely unaware of that, so it wasn't in his memories and Liye didn't even bother to confirm what Aiwai was doing, which lead him to appear in from of Aiwai and Wyba when both were still bathing.

Aiwai was scared when Liye appeared, but after seeing that the one who had appeared was Yale's body and remembered that there was no way someone else was in that house, she sighed in relief. After all, she never cared about Yale seeing her body.

"Yale, you surprised me. Do you want to take a bath with your big sister?"

After saying those teasing words, Aiwai noticed that there was something amiss as Yale's eyes seemed more profound than usual and she had already seen those eyes before.

"Wait, maybe you are my master?"

Although Aiwai knew that Yale and Liye had basically the same soul, the personalities of both were quite different, and Aiwai didn't dare to be disrespectful with Liye, who was her master, so she felt ashamed of her previous words.

Aiwai knew about Yale being a reincarnated expert and had meet Liye before, but for Wyba that was the first time that she met Liye, so she just jumped towards Liye thinking that he was her big brother and hugged him.

"Big bro, I missed you."

Liye didn't plan to explain anything to Wyba because he felt that the little girl wouldn't understand it well and would just be troublesome for her, so he only returned the hug to her. Then, he made Wyba change into her wolf form before he continued speaking.

For Liye forcing her to change forms was easy, and he thought that he couldn't be taken seriously by anyone when a naked half-beast girl was hugging him, so he decided to transform her because he felt that hugging a little wolf was better.

Wyba didn't think about why she had changed forms and just enjoyed Liye's hug.

Aiwai was surprised by Wyba's transformation into a wolf, but since Liye was someone unfathomable, she didn't think that was impossible for him transforming a half-beast with a divine bloodline into a divine beast.

"Put some clothes; we need to speak."

Liye wasn't excited by seeing the naked body of a woman; even Yale had developed immunity to Aiwai at that point, needless to say, Liye who had far more experience.

However, Liye was a master with a great reputation; he couldn't have a serious conversation with a disciple while the disciple is naked. In fact, some of his female disciples had tried to do it before to seduce him.

Zhana and Kurka were the two who tried it first, and then other female disciples imitated them. However, that just made Liye upset because that didn't seem serious and he forbade such behavior.

In the end, Zhana and Kurka managed to have Liye's children, but that was just because their compatibility with the bloodlines that Liye was planning to pass down was the highest, not because they managed to seduce him with their bodies.

Aiwai rushed to put some clothes because she understood that being naked in front of her master wasn't something polite even if she didn't mind that her master saw her body, and Liye was the one who suddenly appeared while Aiwai was taking a bath.

After that, both of them walked towards a room and sat there. Of course, Wyba remained in Liye's arms while he petted her.

Liye started to explain the current situation to Aiwai by Spiritual Sense because Liye thought that it was better if Wyba didn't hear anything about the current situation in the outside. He saw in Yale's memories that Wyba liked to help in dangerous situations, but the danger that time against the True Empire was far too high for her, so it was better if she didn't know anything.

"So, that happened to Yale; If I had been there, I wouldn't have let anyone harm him."

Although Aiwai said those words, she was far from being a match to a Sage Rank expert, but she would rather die herself than let Yale or Wyba die in front of her eyes.

"If you exit from this dimension, you are doomed. Moreover, Yale would awaken after I disappear, so this time there hasn't been any danger for his life."

With Origin Link, Yale always had a trump card to save his life in front of death, so he hadn't been in real danger at any moment, but that trump card had already been used. Moreover, a forbidden skill like Origin link wasn't something that could be used easily, so there wouldn't be a second Origin Link to save Yale's life a second time.

"Master, there isn't any way for me to exit this dimension even if it is only for some time?"

Aiwai knew that Liye couldn't heal her, but she hoped to at least be able to exit for some time in times of danger to help Yale.

"There is, but there will be several consequences for you and the time you will be able to be outside would be only an hour each month, more than that, and your soul won't be able to endure it. This method is completely unorthodox, and even if Yale manage to heal your soul completely later, the after-effects won't disappear."

Although Liye couldn't absorb the Condensed Essences to heal Aiwai, at least he could use them externally to heal her partially, but that healing would be far from perfect and wouldn't be without repercussions for Aiwai.

Aiwai felt happy about the fact that there was a method, but she really feared what those after-effects would be.

"Master, can you explain me more about that method?"

Despite her fear, she valued Yale and Wyba more than her own life, so she wanted to hear all the risks, and as long as she felt that she could afford them, she wouldn't hesitate.

"In this dimension, my control over time is better than in the outside, so it is possible for me to heal your soul to the point where you can be outside for the span of time that I told you before. However, for do that I will need to access completely to your soul and that isn't possible even if you want to let me do it."

It was usually impossible for anyone to let others had full access to their souls, but there wasn't any other way for Liye to heal Aiwai with his current power.

"Then, how do you plan to access my soul?"

Aiwai didn't mind Liye accessing to her soul, but her master had just said that doing that was impossible even if Aiwai allowed him.

"The answer is the Soul Contact, with that I will be able to have full control over your soul to heal it and in the future, that will also make it easier for Yale to heal you completely, but a half-beast can't make a Soul Contract. Of course, humans can't do it either."

Aiwai still didn't understand what Liye was planning to say as he said a solution that was still impossible to do.

"However, a beast can do that contract. Thus, I need to transform you into a divine beast, and then you will be able to initiate a Soul Contract. I already said that the method would have permanent after-effects. Although a divine beast can change into a half-beast form or human form freely, the true body of the divine beast is still the beast form. I only told you about this method because you asked. If you aren't willing, I have no intention to force you. You shall think it well because it is an important decision, but sadly, I don't have too much time to wait for your answer, so you shall decide it in fifteen minutes at most because the process will require some time."

Chapter 291: Aiwai's Decision

Liye didn't like too much the option of transforming Aiwai because there had been a mutual opposition between beasts and the other lifeforms in the universe and there weren't a lot of experts like Liye who didn't mind about it.

Liye had several divine beasts as disciples in other worlds, so he was well aware of the problems Aiwai would face if she chose to transform.

The reason was mainly that the only beasts that could think like the other species were divine beasts or beasts that had turned into Origin Beasts, which made the other species to think lowly of them.

Thus, he felt that if Aiwai chose to transform into a beast, that would pose problems for her in the future as she would be considered a beast.

Due to their beastly parts, normal half-beasts were already looked down by some humans, but except for some people on the Zuatania Republic, they didn't want to the extreme of hunt them unless they invade their territory. However, it wasn't weird that humans went hunting beasts for fun, which was an even worse treatment than the one that the half-beasts received.

Of course, the common people in their continent couldn't pose a danger to Aiwai due to her level of power, but that discrimination as even higher in the outside and that was Liye's worry.

For the most extremist experts that hated beasts, there was a huge difference between having a divine beast bloodline and being a real divine beast.

Those who had a divine beast bloodline were considered to be using the beasts on their benefit and was considered the same that having a contracted beast as a helper for battle, but real divine beasts were considered inferior beings by those extremists.

In fact, the way those people think about beasts wasn't that much different than the way of thought of the True Empire regarding everyone who wasn't part of the True Empire.

Of course, there were also a lot of divine beasts who hated the other species and would kill anyone who neared to them. The hatred was mutual, but if those divine beasts that harbored hatred towards other species were to discover that another divine beast had formed a Soul Contract, all the beasts would target that divine beast as a traitor and wouldn't spare any effort to hunt and kill the one who formed a Soul Contract.

Thus, if Aiwai turned into a divine beast to form a Soul Contract, she would be looked down by both sides, and her only choice would be met only with people like Liye who didn't mind about those topics or try to hide her identity.

Liye explained all of that to Aiwai because he didn't want her to regret after taking her decision.

"Master, the Soul Contract will be with you or Yale."

Aiwai had heard of Soul Contracts, but she didn't know very well how they worked and the situation of Yale and Liye was quite abnormal.

"The Soul Contract binds the soul, and there isn't any difference between my soul and Yale's as we are technically the same person, so it doesn't matter, you will be forming the contract with both of us."

Liye stopped a moment before continuing.

"At least that is what I want to say, but our situation is exceptional, and it won't be that easy."

Aiwai looked towards Liye with doubtful eyes because she didn't understand the meaning of Liye's words.

"Due to some circumstances, it is impossible for Yale to have a contracted beast that surpasses his own level, so it would be impossible for you to be his contracted beast. In case you make a contract with him, you will die on the spot."

Aiwai didn't know about the Origin Path, or the consequences of a beast forming a Soul Contract with someone who had the Origin Path, and Liye didn't plan to explain it to her as that was classified information. However, the Origin Path also added a problematic condition as the Fake Origin Path that Aiwai would obtain after making the contract would be unable to support her power, and she would die. Thus, she wouldn't be able to form a contract with Yale without dying on the process.

"If I need to wait until Yale turns stronger than me, will there still be a reason for this? It is now when I am worried about him; I fear that he dies before turning stronger than me."

Aiwai would die for Yale even if Yale turned stronger than her, but she believed that Yale needed her the most at that moment when he was still weak.

"There is no need to wait; I will exploit a loophole. Usually, a contracted beast would die if the person who had the contract with it also dies, but there is a special situation with reincarnations for those who trained the Life Law and the Death Law due to our ability to reincarnate willingly. In those cases, the contracted beast wouldn't die and would continue to follow its master after the master reincarnated successfully. I am already dead, so even if you make a contract with me, the contract will automatically link to Yale which would be a problem right now."

Liye's current situation was far too abnormal as Origin Link was a Forbidden Skill, something that shouldn't exist, and it was thanks to that that he could find a loophole on the Soul Contracts when affected a reincarnated expert.

"The skill I am using to be in this state is a special one, so I will use some of its power to block the contract and avoiding it to link to Yale until he turns strong enough to be able to have the contract with you without any repercussion. Thus, you will be a contracted divine beast without master like if you would be waiting for me to reincarnate despite my reincarnation already existing. Well, I doubt that Yale will need too much time before surpassing your level and your contract turns into a normal one."

Doing that would be at least as expensive as it had been using the world authority previously and would reduce Liye's time a lot, but Liye was ready to make that sacrifice for Aiwai if she was decided to sacrifice herself turning into a divine beast to help Yale.

"Master, Wyba is Yale's twin or a contracted divine beast?"

After hearing all the explanation of Liye and seeing Wyba in her beast form, Aiwai couldn't avoid starting to doubt about the relationship between Yale and Wyba.

"Wyba was a normal beast that formed a Soul Contract with Yale. Wyba's bloodline improved later on thanks to Yale, and I helped her to become a divine beast when I appeared previously. However, Yale truly considers Wyba as his little sister; you shouldn't doubt about that."

Liye didn't plan to lie to Aiwai about that point because she would be able to sense the link of Wyba with Yale after becoming Liye's divine beast because Wyba was linked to Yale's soul which was the same as Liye. That was the reason for Wyba hugging Liye at the same moment she saw him; the soul link couldn't be falsified, so as long as the soul link was there, Wyba wouldn't doubt about Yale's identity.

"I see. Regardless of anything else, Yale and Wyba are still my little brother and my little sister, since my little sister is a divine beast who formed a soul contract with Yale, there is no reason for me for not doing the same."

Liye stopped petting Wyba's head when he heard Aiwai's decision. Wyba looked towards Liye thinking about why he stopped petting her.

"Sorry, Wyba, but you need to sleep for a while."

After Wyba heard those words, she fell asleep immediately.

"It is better for her to don't see anything. The process will be extremely painful for you and I can't lose the concentration, or you will die. If she were to interrupt us due to being worried about you, you would be doomed."

Aiwai nodded her head because she also didn't want Wyba seeing her while suffering pain. Moreover, she knew that with Wyba's personality, she would try to help her and Liye could be easily distracted.

"Take off your clothes; they will only disturb me."

Transforming a half-beast with divine bloodline into a real divine beast was something extremely difficult even for Liye, and the clothing would just lower his accuracy which would lead to a disaster.

Aiwai obeyed immediately as Liye had already seen her before and he was the one who asked her to put on the clothes before.

"I will start now. Once I start, I won't be able to stop, or you will die. Are you sure that you want to proceed? This is your last chance to change your opinion."

Liye wasn't able to transform a divine beast into a real human or a half-beast, at most he could help them to take human form as he did with Wyba, so there would be no way for Aiwai to change back later on. Moreover, Liye would expend a lot only in that transformation; he couldn't afford a second one as he still needed to deal with the True Empire.

"I am sure."

Liye nodded his head and put his mand on Aiwai's back before starting the transformation process.

Aiwai instantly cried in pain and fortunately it was impossible for anyone else to hear her because her cries would have attracted a lot of attention.

Chapter 292: Liye's Guidance

Liye left Aiwai's house after the Soul Contract was finished. Aiwai was sleeping in her wolf form at that moment due to the exhaustion of the whole process. Wyba was still sleeping, and Liye put her on Aiwai's side. The scene of a big wolf and a little wolf sleeping together was quite touching, but Liye didn't waste time looking at them.

The transformation process was painful for Aiwai, but it wasn't without benefits for her because she leaped directly to the 2-star Sage Rank.

After disappearing from Aiwai's house, Liye reappeared in the area where Ange and the others were living inside the Storage Space.

Everyone was surprised when they saw Liye appearing in front of them, but they had doubts about the identity of the person in front of them. Nurvey had told everyone how Yale had changed into an extremely powerful expert in the Kurk Clan, so everyone thought if they were in front of the expert or their friend.

"Father!"

Ange didn't mind about which identity of her father was in front of her because she loved both, Yale and Liye.

"Little lass, you have grown up, but you are still acting like a kid."

Although Liye knew about Ange thanks to Yale's memories, he hadn't seen her until that moment.

After hearing Liye's words, everyone understood that the man who had appeared in front of them was the same one who put an end to the conflict of the Kurk Clan, Yale's past life.

Liye looked to the area where those four were living and created another r isolated area more suited for living being like he did in Aiwai's house because he felt that it wasn't good for them living in the normal Storage Space for so long. The new area was more suitable to live in, but it didn't have any housing like the other one created for Aiwai, and there wasn't any special barrier protecting the area either.

After the area was created and while Ange continued to hug Liye, the later directed his gaze towards Kermu, Serka, and Nurvey. Liye had quite a good impression of the three of them and thought in helping them a bit.

"Kermu, you helped Yale a lot in the past. Thus, if you want, I will give you some pointers regarding the control Space Law."

Liye hadn't reached the point to take Kermu as his disciple due to his relationship with Yale, but he felt that giving him some pointers was still alright since Kermu was talented in the Space Law despite his young age.

"I will be glad to hear Ancestor's pointers."

Kermu had heard from Nurvey about the incredible control over the Space law that Liye had, so he didn't dare to reject that chance. He believed that a mere pointer of Liye would be as helpful as ten years of training under Krienek's guidance.

Of course, Kermu's guess wasn't right because there was no way that a single pointer of Liye was equivalent to ten years of guidance of Krienek. Kermu's guess was underestimating Liye too much.

"Nurvey, you don't need any guidance since Revgen is already teaching you, but I see that you only excel in one part of the Life Law and you lack a lot in the other. That is a similar problem that Revgen met in his youth, and he only managed to understand the other part after being a Law master. Thus, I think that I can help you a bit with that to avoid you wasting that much time. Take it as a gift of an old friend of your grandfather."

Although Revgen guided Nurvey very well, Revgen wasn't talented as a teacher and only taught her based on his own experience which was also leading Nurvey to the same mistakes. Revgen corrected them later on, but in Liye's eyes that was a waste of time since the mistakes could be avoided from the start.

Nurvey bowed to Liye in reply. She had heard from Revgen how impressive Liye was and understood that a gift from Liye was something with a value that couldn't be measured.

"Serka, you also helped Liye a lot, but are too weak. Your talent isn't bad, and after the improvement in your bloodline you have great prospects, but for someone like you, just some pointers won't be useful. You need a more constant guidance."

Kermu was genius rarely seen in the Kurk Clan, and Nurvey was someone who even Revgen valued, so Liye felt that they would benefit a lot from the pointers. However, although Serka was talented, she couldn't compare with the other two and Liye didn't have too much time which provoked that he couldn't teach her in the long term.

With correct guidance, she wouldn't be worse than Kermu or Nurvey, but the other two already had great foundations thanks to their training with Krienek and Revgen.

Serka lacked that foundation and giving her pointers about the control of a Law to someone without a good foundation was too dangerous for the one listening as it was almost sure that the person would lose the control of the Law which was practically sure death.

As for giving pointers of anything of a lower level, Liye wouldn't do it. He was a legendary teacher, and even other Law Gods learned something from him. Thus, there was no way he would lower himself to explain the basics to someone who wasn't his disciple.

"Ange, take Serka as your disciple. You will be in charge of teaching her from the basics until she turned an expert."

Although Liye knew that his daughter was useless for battle due to her personality, she was very good at helping others, and she had taught healing to a lot of people before she reincarnated.

After all, healing someone would only heal the injuries at that moment but teaching that person how to heal would let that person heal any other injury including those from others.

Serka didn't know how to reply to that because although she knew of Ange's identity, Ange's power at that moment wasn't something remarkable.

Of course, Serka liked Ange as if she was her own sister in the same way that she thought of Yale as his little brother despite being only cousins, but from liking someone to thinking that such person was suitable to teach her, there was a long way.

"Father, currently I am too weak. I only recovered my memories recently, and I think that I can't teach her very well."

Ange understood the thoughts of Serka, so she decided to speak first to avoid putting Serka in a difficult situation.

"Weak? True, you are still too weak right now. How can you be this weak given your age? Aren't you my daughter?"

For Liye everyone who wasn't a Law Master was akin to an ant, so he didn't notice that Ange's power wasn't suitable to teach Serka.

"I am sorry…"

Ange seemed sad for having failed to her father's expectations. Liye wasn't trying to blame her; he was only surprised that Ange was so slow at training.

"Don't worry, most of the fault was to the seal of your memories and that stingy Roanmad Clan. If it wasn't because the Nacesai Academy maybe you wouldn't even have reached the Novice Rank before turning sixteen. To think that I took their ancestor as my disciple because I felt that there was some fate between us. Although the Roanmad Clan's existence was useful for my reincarnation, they treated us very bad. They even ended joining the True Empire, what a disgrace."

When Liye remembered about the Roanmad Clan and the lacking conditions to train, he understood why Ange was still that weak at her age. As for the Roanmad Clan, Liye was greatly disappointed with them, he had high expectations for them when he had taught their ancestor, but after the ancestor died, the Roanmad Clan turned into a big trash of clan in Liye's eyes.

Ange hadn't stopped hugging Liye in the whole time until she felt something weird on her body when she was so surprised that she couldn't avoid stopping.

Liye felt that she was too weak, so he increased Ange's level directly to the 8-star Master Rank.

Usually, forcing the level up of other would be dangerous and damage their foundations, but Ange was a reincarnated expert who had recovered almost all her memories, so in her case increasing her power until that point wouldn't have any side effect.

"Now you can teach her without problems."

Ange and Serka didn't reply after that; there was no reason for complaining since someone who was almost at the peak of the Master Rank and was a reincarnated expert could teach someone at the Apprentice Rank without any problem.

"Kermu, come with me, I will give you your pointers now. I don't have too much time, and I still need to eradicate the True Empire later on. Nurvey, when I finish with Kermu, it will be your turn."

Kermu obeyed and followed Liye and returned alone after half an hour. It had been just half-hour of teaching, but the pointer Liye gave to Kermu allowed him to have an enlightenment about the Space Law. Not only Kermu's comprehension of the Space law increased a lot, but his level had also soared until the 1-star Expert Rank.

At that moment, Kermu understood how much he had underestimated Liye's teachings.

Once Kermu returned, Nurvey walked towards the area where Liye was waiting. The duration of the teaching season was of the same length as Kermu's, but her improvement was even higher than Kermu's.

That was because Nurvey also had an enlightenment, but it wasn't about the Life Law but the Life Essence.

With that comprehended bit of Life Essence, her supporting power and healing power increased until a point that most experts at the grandmaster Rank in the Imperial Family couldn't compare with her.

Of course, her level also increased as she reached the 3-star Master Rank, which was an extremely huge improvement for her.

Liye was extremely satisfied after teaching Nurvey because he had always liked to teach talented kids and one capable of having enlightenment about an essence while being at the Practitioner Rank was a type of kid that he would accept as his disciple. In fact, if it weren't because she was Revgen's granddaughter, he would have already asked her to become his disciple.

Chapter 293: Let's Destroy the True Empire

Liye felt that he had already done a good job in repaying the kindness of Kermu, Serka, and Nurvey towards Yale and was about to leave the Storage Space.

"I will leave now, and I doubt that we will meet again. I am a dead man after all. Remember, although your powers had increased a lot in a short time due to enlightenment, your foundations are shallow, so you should focus on strengthening yourselves more than increase your level from now on."

The enlightenment increased the level of Serka and Kermu, but that was mainly in the Magus Path and without an equally huge increase in stats. The stats related to the Magus Path increased, but they were one whole Rank less than their limit, in other words, their stats in the Magus Path could still turn ten times stronger at their current level. Thus, despite their huge increase of power, they would most likely lose to others who were at the same level due to their low stats.

Their Warrior Path increased as much as their stats in the Magus Path, but their stats in the Warrior Path were even lower, so they were also far too lacking in physical prowess. They used to have both paths balanced, but that increase had broken their balance, and without some training, they wouldn't be able to balance themselves again.

Even saying that reminder, Liye wasn't worried by Kermu and Nurvey because both of them always worked hard on both paths. Serka was a bit undertrained in the Warrior Path from the start despite hadn't obtained any huge increase in power, but the difference wasn't too high, and since she had reached the Novice Rank in the Warrior Path, there would always be time to train in it later on.

However, Liye couldn't avoid worrying by his daughter who didn't even train in the Warrior Path and given her age it was too late for her to start training in

"I hope that Yale will manage to create a Fake Origin Path for her, but with his current control of the Origin Path, that seems difficult for the time being. Moreover, with the personality of the little lass, even if she can train her body, she probably wouldn't focus on it without someone supervising her. If I can allow Yale to have all my memories this problem wouldn't happen, but the lack of memories is also part of the plan, and I can't risk ruining it now."

Yale and Liye had the same soul, they weren't different persons, but the difference in memories make them seem like if they were. Although putting that seal on his memories and making Yale develop a different personality wasn't on Liye's plans originally, after speaking with the Mysterious Expert, he understood that was necessary.

Liye couldn't avoid being worried by Ange because he knew very well that the body was her greatest weak point. Liye had forcefully improved Ange's body until the 9-star Mortal Rank, which was her limit due to her age, but before that, a single hit of someone at the Apprentice Rank would have been enough to kill her, and even a Novice Rank newbie could have heavily injured her.

Although after becoming a Law Master the body would be stronger making that even without the Warrior Path the body would be far stronger than an anyone who had yet to become a Law Master, all the lower levels that only practiced the Magus Path had such a fatal weakness on their bodies.

In her past life, Ange relied on the fact that she was a Law Master to survive, but that was because no other Law Master attacked her. The body was reinforced when one becomes a Law Master, but against a Law Master who had practiced the Warrior Path, someone who hadn't practiced it would still be in a huge disadvantage.

While he was thinking about his daughter, Liye left the Storage Space and went to meet Revgen who was ending the preparations for the final war against the True Empire.

"I wanted to meet you before, but there was no way to find you. Where did you go? No need to answer, it doesn't matter now. I have included the wolf pack of the Larken Clan in our plans, but they didn't listen to my orders. I need you to order them to act or obey my commands."

Revgen heard how Yale had brought that wolf pack after returning from Nacesai City and Revgen needed to admit that for their plain, they were very useful.

In fact, even there would be a golem army used to receive the most damage in the most dangerous situations by distracting the enemy, and that was George's idea. Of course, there were some elders of the Imperial Family in charge of that because George power was far too lacking for that. However, he was still appointed to help plan the strategy with the golems, which was already a huge honor for him.

"I will go to speak with those wolves."

Liye disappeared at the same moment he said those words and reappeared in the Larken Clan, more exactly, just in front of the wolf pack. There was no need to say that the defenses of the Larken Clan were like if they didn't exist in front of Liye.

"Demon Lord."

All the wolves lowered their heads when they saw Liye appear. They respected and feared their Demon Lord, and although they didn't understand the reason, the Demon Lord in front of them seemed even more fearsome than usual.

"You all will help with the destruction of the True Empire. Obey Revgen's commands. I am too busy to command you all directly. Understood?"

All the wolves nodded their heads fearing that Liye would kill them if they didn't nod quick enough.

"You are obedient. I like that."

Liye waved his hand, and all the wolves felt some pain for some seconds before the pain was exchanged by delight.

Since they had shown that they were well-tamed, Liye had improved their bloodlines and transformed them in Frost Winged Wolves. A Frost Winged Wolf was hundred times more useful than a Frost Wolf for their plan since a Frost Winged Wolf could attack from the sky.

Of course, Liye had also manipulated their souls and turned them into soul servants of Wyba, making it impossible for them to betray her. Since they were all loyal to her in the first place and considered her as their goddess, the process was so simple that they didn't notice anything. That was only a safety measure in case something happened in the future, and unless they had thoughts of betraying Wyba, nothing would change for them.

With the increase of their bloodline, all the wolves also increased one Rank, so the wolf leader was already at the Grandmaster Rank making it an almost unstoppable force in the assault towards all the members of the True Empire scattered through the continent.

Before leaving the Larken Clan, Liye went to see Swordmad because he felt that Swordmad should also be repaid for the huge help he had offered to Yale.

However, Liye remained hidden in the shadows when he appeared in Swordmad's room and didn't show himself. He just used Sword Essence near Swordmad to help him reach and enlightenment.

"You are far more talented than your grandfather; I hope that with this enlightenment you finally manage to improve your power."

Seeing that Swordmad was enlightened, Liye disappeared again. Swordmad's grandfather was the ancestor of the Roanmad Clan and Liye's disciple. Besides the fact that the Roanmad Clan helped Liye to reincarnate, Swordmad was the other main reason for Liye detecting that he had some fate with Swordmad's grandfather.

Liye didn't visit anyone else because the only ones with a close relationship with him were Aizu and Mercer, the two disciples of Yale, and then Lar, who had helped him to create the Sword Bloodline.

Liye felt that speaking with Lar would end being a waste of time knowing her personality and Liye felt that Yale should guide his two disciples personally since he was the one who chose them.

After Liye reappeared in the Royal Palace, Revgen immediately asked to him.

"Is already done?"

Liye nodded his head.

"Moreover, they now can fly and are all one rank higher, so they should be more useful than before. Command them well."

Revgen nodded, he planned to use their advantage of being in the shadows to eradicate the True Empire and didn't plan to use sacrifice troops since the golems would take that job. If the plan went well, their causalities would be minimal.

"There are some members of the list that aren't on our Revgen Empire, how are we going to deal with them?"

Although Revgen knew that the main force of the True Empire was on the Revgen Empire, it was impossible that everyone was there and sending people to the other countries could provoke too many problems.

( Updated by )

"Don't worry. Someone already notified the Anpaes Kingdom and the Zuatania Republic, the traitors in those areas would be attacked at the same moment as we start our attack."

Liye and the Mysterious Expert had already planned that beforehand, so there would be no way that the True Empire survived by fleeing to the other two countries.

"Great! The preparations are almost complete, in half an hour we can start."

After half an hour, Liye smiled.

"Let's destroy the True Empire."

Chapter 294: Revgen Empire's Attack

"Teams A and B are in position, but Team C is still a bit delayed."

In the Imperial Palace, one man reported the situation of three of the golem groups under his command that had been sent to attack the True Empire. There were a lot of groups, but only Team C under that man's command wasn't ready yet.

"Those golems still have many flaws that affected to their mobility. I told you that without fixing them that team would have problems, but you ignored me."

The one speaking was George who had been appointed to help to control the advance of the golem groups. Since the first moment, all the members of the Imperial Family in charge of golems were surprised by George's great insight regarding golems.

George had been able to point a lot of flaws in those golems and after those flaws were fixed the golems improved a lot. Although George lacked the power to improve those golems or control them correctly by himself, if it was just pointing the problems of the golems and telling how to solve them, there wasn't anyone in that room who could surpass him.

Despite knowing that George's words were correct, they were short on time, and the flaws George had pointed about the Team C were too expensive to repair in a short time without affecting the owner's wealth heavily, so the man in charge of that team decided that it wouldn't be much problem even without improving the golems.

However, at that moment, his face was red in shame as all the other people in the room was staring towards him.

"If the plan fails because you have been stingy in improving your golems, death would be the best outcome for you. You will be considered the greatest sinner of our Empire."

The chief of the golem division, who was an elder of the Imperial Family, spoke seriously and the other man started to tremble.

"Don't worry; I made some arrangement to the plan. Even with the Team C delay, it will work in this way thanks to the last our changes announced by the Emperor."

Zack put some papers in the table in front of him, and the faces of those who read them changed because that plan was feasible and would solve the problem. Revgen had announced some last hour changes in the Empire's power, and the plan related to the golems wasn't taking it into account because it had been earlier.

When George was appointed to be with the golem strategy team, he suggested bringing Zack with him as his assistant. However, George didn't plan to have Zack act as his assistant because he knew that Zack was intelligent and was able to remain calm in stressful situations. Thus, George believed that Zack would be helpful if something in the plan went wrong and his guess was on the spot.

In fact, the changes in the plan made by Zack were something that everyone in the room could have thought without problems, but they were unable to remain calm in such a critical moment for the Empire, so they didn't even think in changing the plan a bit given the improvements in the Revgen Empire's forces.

The elder in charge had heard that those two guys had been brought from a backwater city by someone with an even greater status than the Emperor, so he wasn't surprised that both were so capable despite their young age.

However, all the others didn't know about that and were thinking from where those two young geniuses had appeared.

At that moment, everyone heard a mighty shout in their minds.

"Let's destroy the True Empire."

That shout of Liye was heard by all the people who were working in the war against the True Empire, and it was the signal to start the attack. Most of the people didn't know from who that voice was, but they knew that it was the moment to start.

"Attack! Let's lure those bastards, and once they are packed together, the others will kill them easily!"

The golems were mainly for distraction and luring the opponents; there were others in charge of eliminating all of them.

The True Empire didn't fail to meet with the Revgen Empire's expectations and attacked those golems with all their might. However, when they were smiling as the golems were destroyed, ice lances pierced through their hearts.

The ones who attacked with ice spears to the True Empire members that were fighting against the golems were the members of Frost Winged Wolves pack, which had been officially called Wyba's Army.

It was thanks to them that Zack could revise the plan because there was another good place to lure the members of the True Empire, which was neared to the golems, but in that place, it would have been difficult for normal wolfs to ambush them there. However, since the wolves could fly, it wasn't a problem anymore.

Frost Winged Wolves were beasts capable of moving at great speeds while flying, and their number was high, so all the members of the True Empire in places near the Imperial City were appointed to them to destroy. If there had been more time, the area appointed to them would have been even more huge.

The golems were also in charge of the same area, but for the opposite reason. Their mobility was extremely limited, and even though they had been preparing for that attack since the first moment, the distance they could cover wasn't that much.

Even though some members of the Imperial Family had neared them to their destinations before, they were still only barely managed to be ready in time. They had been the main reason for the half hour delay.

The members of the Imperial Family and the other noble clans were also going to attack, but they focused in more distant places were the members of the True Empire were more dispersed.

Swordmad had also joined them as one of the main attack forces because after being enlightened by Liye, he finally reached the Grandmaster Rank in the warrior Path. Moreover, he was at the 3-star Grandmaster, and his swordsmanship surpassed the sage stage and reached the level of starting to control the Sword Law. Although his control was still very shallow, his prowess had more than a thousand times stronger than before the enlightenment.

Initially, Swordmad hadn't been appointed to attack directly and merely to support the golems and the wolves. Although an Elder Rank expert was useful, without the capability to fly, he couldn't move quickly to kill dispersed people, and as he was Yale's master, Revgen didn't plan to put him in a cannon fodder position.

However, after the improvement of the wolf pack and the breakthrough of Swordmad, the plans changed because the wolfs didn't need any support since they could fly, and Swordmad's power turned important for the war.

There weren't a lot of Sage Rank experts, so a Grandmaster Rank expert was very useful, and Swordmad's value was even higher by the fact he started controlling the Sword Law.

George, Zack, and Swordmad had duties to do, but Lar and Aizu were forbidden from acting despite their insistence because their power was too lacking for having any use in the war against the True Empire, and they didn't have any use in planning strategy or improving golems like the others.

However, despite his weak power, Durgan also have a duty to do in that great war, although it wasn't related to fighting.

There were a lot of kids kidnapped by the True Empire to brainwash them, but since they were less than ten years old their souls were still intact, so it was still possible to save them.

Initially, the Revgen Empire planned to rescue the kids after dealing with the True Empire, but when Hyrk heard that, he remembered something he heard while he was being tortured.

The place where those kids had been trapped was filled with a lethal poison that was even more deadly than the one the Hyeran Clan put on Hyrk's body before. Moreover, that poison would automatically activate when a certain person died, but Hyrk didn't know who that person was, so there was no war to just avoiding killing the person who would trigger the poison.

However, he was certain that the person belonged to the Hyeran Clan because to access that area it was needed the bloodline of the Hyeran Clan. If someone without the bloodline of the Hyeran Clan tried to open the place where the kids were trapped or the one opening the hidden door wished for it, the poison would also trigger.

Thus, Hyrk offered himself to go as he was the only member of the Hyeran Clan that hadn't betrayed the Revgen Empire. However, since saving those kids wasn't as important as killing all the members of the True Empire, Hyrk didn't have any high-level escort and only people who volunteered to help.

Needless to say, that if the plan of the Hyeran Clan succeeded and Hyrk died in the Imperial Palace, there would have been no way to save those kids as no one would have opened the hidden door to free them. Even capturing someone wouldn't have ensured the safety of those kids as the poison could have been activated while opening the hidden door.

Durgan had been one of them because he couldn't ignore the lives of those kids. Although he wasn't the only one with that mindset, most of the rest of the group were just prideful members of the younger generation who wanted to be of some use to the Revgen Empire in that war.

In fact, Lar and Aizu knew about that rescue operation, but none of them wanted to risk their lives for some kids that were unrelated to them. They even considered that the rescue operation was more like a suicide mission seeing the members.

The strongest of the rescue group was a 3-star Elder of the Tofesh Clan who volunteered to help after the Imperial Family killed the traitors inside the Tofesh Clan because Birgh, a young female genius of the clan, wanted to help to rescue those kids, but the rest were far weaker with the strongest among them was just at the 2-star Expert.

However, that elder didn't have too high battle capabilities, so it was still better if they could rescue the kids without encountering any enemy. That elder had gifted everyone a high-quality armor to increase their survival chances, but an armor was still just an armor if a Grandmaster Rank expert appeared it wouldn't have any use.

Furthermore, if someone who surpassed the elder's power appeared, the elder would flee with Birgh abandoning the others because battling would only lead to death and since their mission wasn't an official one, dying for it was meaningless.

That elder had confidence in saving himself and Birgh, but he couldn't save with everyone else in front of a powerful opponent, and he said that clearly before they started traveling to the place where those kidnaped kids were.

Fortunately for the rescue group, they managed to reach the hidden door of the underground chamber where those kids were trapped without encountering with any enemy just before Liye's shout that meant the start of the attack to the True Empire.

That order didn't affect them since that mission was an unofficial one despite having been approved by Revgen. They just needed to rescue those kids and bring all of them to a safe place.

Their only problem was that once the attack plan started, there was a risk of the poison triggering due to the death of that certain person, so Hyrk rushed to open the hidden door.

295 Massacring the True Empire

In the mountains, there was a handsome man with long hair in the midst of a pile of corpses that had been killed by himself.

Near that pile of corpses, there were some other corpses, but those were killed by the expressionless subordinates of the handsome man. The man looked like a human, but those expressionless subordinates had beast parts, half-beasts, which made the scene difficult to believe for those who didn't know the identity of the handsome man.

"Prince, all the traitors that the scroll shows in this area are already dead."

A humanoid lizard neared the handsome man with a scroll on his hand; that was the same type of scroll Liye had given to Revgen and his army.

"Very well. Shirk, tell me where the next area is, I won't let anyone of those bastards alive. They schemed to conquer our kingdom and provoked a lot of problems for our people."

The handsome man looked towards his expressionless guards that had turned into puppet-like beings due to the treason of the first prince back then.

That handsome man was Sebe, the crown prince of the Anpaes Kingdom. After obtaining the legacy of Anpaes, his power skyrocketed, and his training speed turned completely abnormal.

The legacy left for Anpaes was meant for his descendants, so it was much better than normal legacies that were left for anyone who had fate with them. Anpaes gave his all in that legacy provoking that Sebe changed from a genius in training to a real monster that defied any common sense.

At that moment, Sebe was already a 9-star Grandmaster, and his power was considered top-notch in the whole Anpaes Kingdom.

Some time ago, a Mysterious Expert appeared in front of Sebe and his father to tell them the truth about the treason of the first prince and the plans of the True Empire.

Hearing the truth had enraged Sebe and his father to the point that they wanted to go into a killing spree at the moment, but they also heard that there was a plan to eradicate them from the continent, so they decided to wait.

Moreover, Paku, Sebe's father, trusted the Mysterious Expert's words and didn't have even the slightest doubt about those words because that Mysterious Expert was the same who had acted as the backing of Yale back then. Giving Yale's true identity, that meant that the words of the Mysterious Expert were trustful despite the fact that Paku had never seen the true face or heard the true voice of that person.

Recently, that Mysterious Expert had given them one of the scrolls created by Liye, and they started the hunt of True Empire members.

There wasn't a lot of them on the Anpaes Kingdom, so it was difficult for Sebe to vent all his anger, but he took the lead of the extermination group and was the one killing the quickest.

It couldn't even be considered a battle since the ones in the Anpaes Kingdom were just weaklings compared to Sebe; it was just a one-sided massacre.

Although Shirk was in the group, he was without any doubt the weakest of all, but he was there to check the scroll and support Sebe instead of battling, so it wasn't too much problem.

However, he was only weak compared with Sebe and the expressionless guards because since his species had changed thanks to Yale's research, his training speed had increased a lot. Moreover, after Sebe had become the crown prince, he had taken good care of Shirk and turned him in his main guard and giving him all kind of resources for training.

Thus, he had already reached the 1-star Expert Rank, and although that was quite weak compared to others, for Shirk, who had felt almost impossible increasing his power previously, that was like a miracle.

Sebe continued his journey of killing any member of the True Empire that was left on his Kingdom while those who died at his hands suffered a fate even worse after their souls left their bodies.

With the legacy of Anpaes, Sebe had obtained a divine beast bloodline, and the divine beast from where that bloodline originated was the Soul Eater Sun Lion, which as the name indicated could eat souls.

Although Sebe never liked that capability of the bloodline as seemed too evil, against those traitors he decided that he would eat their souls even if he needed to have indigestion afterward for eating something in a bad state.

Needless to say, the pain felt when someone was eating your soul was something incredibly painful.

"I would have never imagined that eating souls of those bastards would increase my power instead of giving me a stomachache."

In fact, Sebe was only at the peak of the 8-star Grandmaster when he started hunting, but he made a breakthrough after starting eating souls of the members of the True Empire.

Sebe had morals, so he didn't want to rely on eating souls to increase his power, but those traitors deserved the pain of having their souls devoured by him.

Eating souls weren't that strange for divine beasts, and all the divine beasts with affinity to the Death law were able to do it, including the Time Freezing Wolves. However, the peculiarity of the Soul Eater Sun Lion was that could increase his own power by eating souls while for other divine beasts with that capacity, eating souls was like eating a normal meal and didn't have any special benefit. Moreover, it filled their stomach far less than normal meat.

Thus, it was strange for other divine beasts to eat the souls of their preys, and very few people knew about their capability. However, the Soul Eater Sun Lions loved to eat the souls of their preys, sometimes they didn't even touch the body and just ate souls. For anyone who had heard about that divine beast, it was a true source of fear. Even Law Masters were fearful of that kind of beast because if their sous were eaten, they would be truly ended.

Sebe wasn't as fearful as a true Soul Eater Sun Lion because his level was still too low, and he wasn't someone who delighted with evil acts like eating souls. However, once he had been angered by the True Empire to the point that he only wanted to kill, his opponents wouldn't suffer less than if a true Soul Eater Sun Lion was eating their souls.

While Sebe was massacring the members of the True Empire, the Zuatania Republic didn't fall behind.

Tar had received the news from the Mysterious Expert, who also had recently given one of the scrolls to Tar.

Although Tar wasn't the official governor of the Zuatania Republic and no one would dare to go against his orders, Tar decided to offer a reward for those who killed more members of the True Empire instead of ordering the people to kill them.

After all, the number of members of the True Empire in the Zuatania Republic was the least since the plan was that the conquered Anpaes Kingdom would attack the Zuatania Republic.

Of course, he only told about this topic to people he trusted, but at the end, there wasn't a chance for any of them to act because while they were making some preparations, the Thousand Frost Wolves Company had already formed an enormous mercenary group to hunt all the members of the True Empire.

The other parties wanted to kill them mainly for the rewards, but the Thousand Frost Wolves Company didn't mind about that since the money that had spent even in that mercenary group surpassed the total reward. That kind of reward was absolutely abnormal for the job of killing some people, so in a short span of time, the hugest mercenary group of the Zuatania Republic was formed

Julie had also received a visit of the Mysterious Expert and obtained a scroll, and since those members of the True Empire were enemies of Yale, Julie spared no effort in sending people to kill all of them. The Thousand Frost Wolves Company had obtained a lot of wealth, and they were very famous in the whole Zuatania Republic, so no one doubted that the company could pay the reward they offered to those mercenaries.

The mercenaries didn't know the reasons for killing the people they were ordered to kill, but they would receive more money for that mission than the money they usually obtained from working in more than a thousand missions of equal difficulty, so they were eager to kill their targets.

Moreover, since all those mercenaries were experienced ones, as long as the money was enough, they were sure to kill any target no matter the means they needed to use.

Thus, no battle happened in the Zuatania Republic because those mercenaries relied on setting poison traps to kill all their targets without effort.

The Anpaes Kingdom and the Zuatania Republic started almost half an hour before the Revgen Empire and given their speed and the fact that they used portals to teleport to the places where their targets were situated, they had almost ended by the time the Revgen Empire started.

Unknowingly of the situation on the other two countries, Liye teleported to the Hyeran Clan headquarters after his shout. The Hyeran Clan headquarters were also the True Empire headquarters, and their hidden experts were all living there.

Liye waved his hand, and a two-layered barrier covered the Hyeran Clan headquarters, no one would be able to enter or exit.

Chapter 296: Hyeran Clan

The Hyeran Clan didn't fail to notice that something had isolated them from the outside.

"The communications with the outside have been cut completely!"

A man who was in charge of sending news to the members of the True Empire residing outside the Hyeran Clan shouted while fearing that danger was nearing the Hyeran Clan.

"Same here, it is impossible to contact the others."

The other man who spoke was able to remain calm, but he also knew that being unable to communicate with the outside meant bad news for them.

After all, anyone who could isolate them completely despite all their preparations was someone who could wipe them out in a second. Of course, they didn't believe that the True Empire would lose as they also had their hidden experts, but they feared their own deaths because for those hidden experts and for their enemy their lives were worthless.

It was just because of the fearsome communication network of the True Empire that starting the plan at the same time was so important for the Revgen Empire. Of course, even with their incredible communication network, they could only cover the Revgen Empire, covering the whole continent was impossible without alerting others.

"Who is the one provoking problems to my clan?"

An old man appeared in the sky after he was notified of the cut off from the outside. That man was the official clan head of the Hyeran Clan and was at the 9-star Sage Rank, but for Liye, that man was only a pawn of those hidden experts of the True Empire.

"The Hyeran Clan is guilty of high treason to the Revgen Empire, or maybe I should say True Empire instead of Hyeran Clan?"

The old man's face changed after hearing Liye's mighty voice. If the one attacking had only discovered that some member was guilty of something, they could just discard that member to avoid distributions on the plan, but he had never thought that the fact the Hyeran Clan was behind the True Empire would have been discovered.

"I don't know who you are, but our clan did nothing wrong."

The old man spoke honestly as he didn't feel that enslaving everyone and wanting to govern the whole continent was something wrong.

"I can read your mind like an open book; you truly didn't feel that you did something wrong despite all your wicked actions, you truly deserve to be punished."

The old man's face turned even worse, he didn't know what kind of monster had appeared, but he wanted to win some time until the hidden experts of the True Empire appeared.

"If you kill me, all the kids in our secret chamber will die instantly in agonizing pain. Do you feel that you are a man of justice? Killing me is equal to killing all those kids, even the World Laws will punish you if you kill me knowing that."

Although the World Laws would also punish the clan head, since he would be already dead, he didn't fear it.

"The World Laws didn't have any effect on me. This world was a present my father gifted to me when I was born; the World Laws can't harm me."

The old man was shocked after hearing Liye's words. The most feared individual by the members of the True Empire was Revgen, the Emperor of the Revgen Empire. They had never heard of any son of the World Creator. In fact, only those hidden experts knew about Liye's existence, but they confirmed that Liye died, so they didn't bother to spoke about him to the others.

"Even without the harm of the World Laws, you will kill all those kids if you kill me!"

Liye stared to the old man coldly.

"I don't know why you think that I am a man of justice because I am not. However, killing the True Empire would benefit the whole world, a bit of collateral damage is tolerable."

Liye wasn't a hypocrite who wanted to save everyone in the world. Although he didn't wish any harm for those kids, the plan to eradicate the True Empire was far more important.

Moreover, he knew that Revgen agreed to an unofficial mission to rescue them in charge of some volunteers, so the fact that they would die wasn't something sure. If the rescue group finished their job well, no one would die, but if they failed, there wouldn't be any blame on them as that wasn't a vital part of the plan and failure wouldn't affect the big picture.

"You…"

The old man was scared to death at that moment as he understood that the man in front of him was determined to eradicate the True Empire at any cost.

"Just die and go to the Devouring Beast World, you will live only to be eaten by the beasts until your conscience disappears, and you became a consciousness body reincarnated eternally to become an eternal meal for those beasts."

The Devouring Beast World was in the same dimension as the Purgatory World and was the second most cruel one.

"Stop!"

A loud shout appeared from seemingly nowhere, but Liye didn't stop, and the old man fell into the dimension crack.

"I told you to stop!"

A tall and bulky man appeared in front of Liye, the aura of that man showed that he was a Law Master.

"Why should I hear the orders of a minion like you? Do you want to accompany him to the Devouring Beast World?"

Sending a Law Master there was far more difficult, but it wasn't impossible.

"Not under our watch."

Another voice spoke, and some more figures appeared in front of Liye. There were another five Law Masters, but more important, there were three Law Gods.

"I heard that you died, but it seems that those were fake news."

The man who said that was the leader of the True Empire, a reincarnation of one of the invaders who had died before Liye killed all the survivors and put an end for the war. Of course, that man was also the founder of the Hyeran Clan and all the others were his descendants.

"Disappointing."

Liye shook his head while saying that single word after seeing through the strength of all his opponents.

"Don't look down on us!"

All of them were enraged after hearing the word said by Liye, but there wasn't any reply from Liye as he just smiled as he thought.

"Initially, those men were the ones who would have killed Yale provoking Origin link to trigger. However, they still have no chance to win toward me."

Going a bit back in the time, when Liye just appeared in the Hyeran Clan headquarters, Hyrk just opened the hidden chamber where more than ten thousand kidnaped kids were locked up.

"They are too many! How are we supposed to go back with so many kids?"

Everyone saw the chamber when Hyrk opened it, and the sight of inside shocked them all. Even Hyrk only knew that the kidnapped kids were there, he didn't know how many they were.

"First, let's get them all out of there, at least they wouldn't be in risk of dying by the poison."

Everyone nodded to Durgan's suggestion, regardless of what to do afterward, at least the kids needed to exit from that room.

The kids started to leave the room as fast as they can, but they have barely seen the sunlight in the last months and had been treated like beats having some beast food thrown at them for those who opened the hidden door making that they couldn't walk too fast, so the rescue group was also helping them. The True Empire wanted to break their minds completely to make them easier to control.

"Everyone, we should separate. Each one shall pick some kids and start going towards the teleportation points. Having such a big group will make us too easy to discover. Elder, you and Birgh could wait until the end and go together with more kids than the rest, giving elder's power, that should be a burden."

Hyrk's suggestion was reasonable, and no one rejected it, so the group started to disperse as they took some kids with them. Of course, they were taking different routes to go to different portals.

Although they weren't without risk of being attacked after separating, they couldn't move all together with more than ten thousand kids, so everyone just wished to have enough luck.

The members of the rescue group started to diminish and only, Durgan, Hyrk, Birgh and the elder were still there.

"Durgan, you shall go now. I need to close the hidden chamber when all the kids are out to avoid the poison from spreading once it is triggered."

Knowing that the Hyeran Clan bloodline was required to making that hidden door work, Durgan needed and left with some kids.

"Elder, please pick everyone else and leave. The Hyeran Clan can track my bloodline, so it is better if I run alone."

The elder nodded, but before he managed to depart, a sound appeared from inside the chamber as poison started to appear.

"Damn, the poison triggered."

Hyrk was already in the process of closing the door since Durgan left but only managed to avoid the poison by a second.

"Are you okay?"

The elder saw the situation, but he wasn't sure if Hyrk managed to avoid the poison or not.

"I am okay, but a second letter and I wouldn't have been able to say the same."

The elder nodded and departed with Birgh and all the kids.

After the elder departed, Hyrk sighed and sat to the ground.

"Sorry for lying. Although I managed to avoid the poison, I know that I am doomed. Even if I have died due to the poison of the hidden chamber, it wouldn't have made so much difference."

Hyrk knew that the moment he opened the hidden chamber's door someone would notice it since the person who opened the door would be registered and all his information sent to the person in charge, who should be living in a place nearby the hidden chamber.

Thus, since the moment he offered to open the door, he was determined to die.

"I don't mind if I die, but I should at least try to run towards a teleportation point different from everyone else to act as bait. Maybe if I have luck, I won't die."

Although Hyrk said that to himself, he truly didn't mind living or dying since he had been crippled and his options were living like that or reincarnating, which for him was the same a dying, there was no way he could have an open mind to reincarnation.

Chapter 297: Hyrk's Last Battle

Hyrk started to run with all his strength towards the targeted teleportation point. He hoped that he would be the only one who would face enemies in that rescue operation and the others would escape successfully.

"Traitor, how are you still alive? You should have died and turned into a poison bomb for the Imperial Family."

Hyrk wasn't surprised when he heard those words and saw an elderly man in front of him.

"You are the traitors to the Empire."

The elderly man coldly sneered.

"We aren't traitors because we have never been loyal to the Empire! Since the creation of the Hyeran Clan, the clan's objective has been destroying the Revgen Empire and conquering this continent!"

Hyrk couldn't be bothered with the words of that elderly man; he had met that man before and knew that was at the Grandmaster Rank, so there was no way of surviving in front of him and arguing was useless.

"I don't know what you did to those kids, probably you sent them to run alone towards some town, but that is useless! The towns are under our True Empire's control, and there are a lot of savage beasts in the area; those kids will die!"

Although it was true that there were a lot of savage beasts in the area, the strongest ones barely reached the Novice Rank and weren't dangerous for anyone of the rescue group. Of course, if those kids would have run alone as the elderly man said, it would have been difficult for them to survive.

Moreover, the surrounding towns and cities were in the process of cleaning by the Revgen Empire, and the only reason that elderly man was safe and hadn't noticed anything was that he was living in an isolated place and the focus had been the places with more people. As for the remnants like him, they weren't difficult to kill later on as they didn't even notice that the others had been killed.

"So, you don't want to reply. Very well, now I will torture you till death."

Hyrk had been ready to die since the start, but he didn't plan to let the other party slaughter him without opposing resistance.

Seeing that Hyrk seemed ready to battle the elderly man laughed.

"An ant like you wants to battle against me? How ridiculous!"

Hyrk knew that very well, but he still wanted to battle till death even if the battle lasted only a second.

"You have already chosen the path of death in battle. If you are determined to battle till the end, I will grant you power."

At that instant, Hyrk heard a voice in his mind, and that was a voice that he recognized, that was Yale's past life's voice.

Hyrk had only head Liye's voice when he announced the start of the attack before, but he had no doubts about it as it was the same as Yale' but with some ancientness on it.

"I want to battle till the end."

Hyrk replied in his mind; he truly wanted to die in battle, but if he could choose, he would rather die in a true battle rather than in a battle that lasted only for one second.

"I left a string of my power on you when you chose to go to that rescue mission. Use it, and your power will increase a lot temporally. However, that power is too much for your body and how many you are able to use will depend on you. Moreover, regardless if you win or lose the battle, using that string of power will kill you or at least left you unable to move your body once again. Use it, and this will be your last battle regardless of the result."

Although usually, one would ponder about using that kind of self-destructive power, Hyrk used it immediately; he would die even without using it and didn't fear death, so he felt that at least he wanted to harm that elderly man as much as he could and make it his last gift of loyalty to the Revgen Empire before dying.

Meanwhile, Liye was still in the midst of the air with the experts of the True Empire in front of him, but no one had moved since they met.

Liye had been asking the other party to make a move first, but the other felt that it was a trap, so they didn't dare to move, which was just as Liye planned.

"If you had attacked me instantly, you might have injured me a bit before dying, the more you wait to attack me, the worse for you."

The reason for thinking that was that Liye had his own plan, but that required a bit of time. Although he could kill all his opponents just with brute force, he felt that killing them in that way would be too merciful for criminals like them.

"Oh, it seems that Hyrk triggered the string of power I left in his body, it seems that he chose to die in battle. As expected, Yale and Revgen didn't notice it, but for Hyrk the two options he had were equally worse. More than living like a disabled person or reincarnating, he would rather die while battling for the things he believes."

Liye had acted stealthily to put that string of power on Hyrk's body as he guessed that Hyrk planned to sacrifice himself in the rescue operation. Hyrk's last wish was to die honorably while battling for the Revgen Empire and Liye gave him a method to make it true.

He understood very well how one felt when death was the only option and how important was being able to fulfill all your wishes before dying.

Liye died due to obtaining the Origin Path, but if he had given up the Origin Path at the last second, he would have avoided the attack and survived, so it could be said that he chose death. Afterward, he endured the great pain of having his soul in dispersion process all the time until he managed to finish all his plans for reincarnation.

Liye didn't want to disappear forever with his soul dissipated as he still had things to do and as a Law God in the laws of Life and Death, he didn't fear reincarnation.

Hyrk wasn't planning to hope for any reincarnation or anything else after death, he was planning to truly disappear, so his situation was a bit different from that of Liye back then.

Thus, Liye felt that at least Hyrk had the right to fulfill his last wish before dying and decided to help him. Despite their situations being in a completely different context, Liye felt that there was some fate between two of them since both of them had decided to disregard their lives for their objectives.

Therefore, Liye left that string of power in Hyrk's body to help him at the moment he chose to discard his life in battle.

"Good luck. I hope that you die without regrets."

Liye couldn't know Hyrk's situation since the barrier created around the Hyeran Clan headquarters isolated everything, but he gave him his blessings.

At that moment, Hyrk was experiencing the biggest pain of his life, but at the same time, he felt boundless power on his body.

"Aren't you going to attack? This battle will end with my first hit, so at least you should attack first, or this will be too boring."

The elderly man already considered Hyrk as a corpse, so he decided to tease him a bit trying to increase his hopes before sending him to the desperation.

Hyrk didn't reply, but instead, he attacked the elderly man with all his strength.

The elderly man put a finger to stop his attack expecting that Hyrk would be shocked when his most powerful attack was stopped with one finger. However, the result wasn't like the elderly man expected as his finger was broken, and he was sent flying backward.

"What?"

The elderly man was shocked; he didn't understand how Hyrk was able to use so much power.

"Cheap tricks!"

Of course, the elderly man supposed the Hyrk used some kind of weapon hidden in his hand to power up the punch, but after clashing with Hyrk a few times his face changed because he felt that all the attacks of Hyrk weren't weaker than his own.

"How can this happen?"

If the elderly man battled seriously, he would still have the upper hand due to his superior experience in battle but taking seriously a crippled kid like Hyrk would be akin to losing for someone like the elderly man.

However, that wasn't a moment to worry about reputation as he could really die if he continued to take Hyrk lightly, so he finally started to battle seriously.

Hyrk was suffering a lot of pain due to the use of a power that far surpassed the limits of his body, but when the elderly man started to battle seriously, the pain increased another hundredfold as his body was full on injuries making that the string of power was even more difficult to use.

However, Hyrk didn't stop and continued attacking the elderly man with all his strength disregarding anything else. At that moment, the elderly man understood how fearsome someone could be who disregarded death in battle.

Fifteen minutes later the elderly man fell to the ground with almost all his bones broken by the battle against Hyrk, but the later wasn't in a better state and also fell to the ground a second after him.

Both of them were still conscious and tried to get up, but that was far too difficult in their current state.

No one was able to get up, but the elderly man was able to fly thanks to his superior rank. Although Hyrk's power increased, that was only the power of his body as his level didn't increase.

Previously both of them had flown a bit when the elderly man thought of using his flying capability to beat Hyrk, but Hyrk had learned a flying skill in the special realm. Thus, both of them ended battling on the ground again as fighting in the sky could attract someone else, and the elder didn't dare to wait until Hyrk was exhausted and couldn't continue flying.

However, when the elderly man saw Hyrk's state, he was sure that he couldn't use a skill to fly.

"At the end, this is my victory! Die!"

The elderly man had prepared a long-range attack with all his remaining power to destroy everything in a kilometer radius; he believed that it was impossible to Hyrk to avoid that attack and even Hyrk knew that he couldn't avoid it.

However, that powerful attack was never cast as the elderly man was gulped down by a flying beast at that same moment.

"The enemies of the Demon Lord didn't taste very well."

That was the leader of the wolfs in Wyba's Army, who had been in charge of cleaning the isolated members of the True Empire in the area, and the elderly man who battled against Hyrk was the last one.

Although the wolf leader and the elderly man were at the same rank, the elderly man had been weakened a lot by his battle against Hyrk and was unable to defend before being eaten.

"That human had a bit of the smell of the Demon Lord on him."

The leader wolf didn't fail to notice that Hyrk had some relationship with his Demon Lord, so he put Hyrk on his back before flying back to the Imperial Palace where Revgen had ordered everyone to go after finishing.

"At the end, I am satisfied. I battled with all my strength and put a Grandmaster Rank expert into dire straits. I can die satisfied now."

In the back of the wolf leader, Hyrk smiled before his heart stopped and his consciousness vanished.

Chapter 298: Fake Power

"The string of power I left on Hyrk's body disappeared, so he died. I hope that he had been able to die without regrets."

If Hyrk had survived there would still be remnant power in his body, so the fact that disappeared completely was a proof that Hyrk died.

"Are you all really planning to let me attack first? I have been magnanimous enough to give you all a chance, but you didn't treasure it."

After thinking about Hyrk, Liye spoke with his opponents one last time because the waiting time had almost ended, and his opponents chose the best option for Liye due to the fear of attacking first.

"Shut up! You are the one attacking, so you should be the one who attacks us! If you just flee from us right now, we don't plan to pursue you."

Although the words of the True Empire's leader seemed to show that the True Empire had an advantage, he hoped that Liye would want to avoid a direct struggle with them and flee because he knew that Liye was powerful and there was no way to win without having casualties.

The leader of the True Empire didn't care too much for the lives of the others, but their deaths would delay the plan, and since the Revgen Empire discovered them, they should execute the plan as soon as possible to avoid giving time to the Revgen Empire to organize and turn into a troublesome opponent.

"Alright, you are too cocky, but you still don't have enough courage to face me. I don't blame you, you are a Law God, but clearly, you have just breakthrough. Probably you only advanced in the past five years; you can't compare with me in a direct battle."

The leader's face changed as it was just as Liye said, he only managed to advance almost five years ago, and he couldn't be compared in battle prowess with Liye, who was a Law God in three different Laws.

"Maybe alone I can't face you, but we have the strength of numbers!"

Liye looked towards the True Empire's leader with disdain.

"Numbers? Do you count those fakes as numbers to battle? Those Law Gods are just Fake Law Gods; they were Law Masters who you forced into a fake breakthrough to increase their power. Moreover, the method you used was rough and destroyed all their future potential. Even those Law Masters are just Sage Rank people who underwent the same process to have a fake strength in exchange of never being able to improve again. Although their powers are stronger than before, they can't compare with someone who really reached the same level of power by the correct method."

The faces of all the experts of the True Empire changed as Liye was again on the spot. Only the leader was a real Law God, while the others had just advanced with the leader's help.

They planned to groom an army of fake experts to intimidate the rest of people in the continent to make it easier to conquer.

"Wait until we have an army of Fake Law Masters, no one would be able to oppose us! Even if everyone is individually weaker, the strength of numbers surpasses everything!"

Liye succeeded in making them lost their temper, but they still didn't attack, only throwing a useless threat towards Liye.

"Telling me that, do you think that any of you would be able to leave alive to continue with that plan? Well, even without saying anything your fate would have been the same."

The members of the True Empire were enraged by Liye's words, but they still felt that Liye was trying to force them to attack, so they restrained themselves.

"Besides me, there are two Law Gods and six Law Masters! Even if they are fake and I am not as strong as you, all of us together have the strength to beat you!"

Liye smiled as the True Empire's leader underestimated him so much because Liye knew that most they would have been able to injure him a bit if they had attacked all together at the start.

"You think too highly of yourselves. Very well, since you are adept to creating Fake Power with those rough methods, I should show you how to use Fake Power without bad side-effects."

Liye had been waiting just because that increase of power required some time to be executed.

The method used by Liye wasn't any secret but executing it was very difficult due to the harsh requirements it had.

Firstly, one had to be a Law God who was at peak power and near to breakthrough, which was still something that was possible to do. However, the rest wasn't that easy because it required to have complete Condensed Essences of the Laws trained to the Law God level, and then fuse them completely with the body.

Having complete Condensed Essences wasn't easy, and fuse with them perfectly was also something with an unbelievable level of difficulty. However, Liye fused with them in such a short span of time, that would make anyone who knew about that method to praise him.

Usually, even the talented people would need at least a thousand years to fuse with one Condensed Essence, but despite Liye having only started to work on it since the moment he had awakened, he had finished fusing with three Complete Essences at the same time.

The level that followed Law God was Essence God, and the experts called the state Liye was entering as Fake Essence God, but that was only because those experts knew that a Fake Essence God was far weaker than a true Essence God and disregarded the name that weaker people gave to that level.

"Half Essence God?"

The leader of the True Empire trembled as he noticed Liye's surge of power because he knew about that level and was one that would put any Law God to tremble in fear.

"How this person dares to say that he is using Fake Power! He just made half-breakthrough to become an Essence God."

At that moment, the leader of the True Empire understood that giving time to Liye instead of attacking him had been a huge mistake.

Half Essence God was how the weaklings called it because the people at that level could become complete Essence Gods as long as they managed to fulfill all the conditions.

However, since entering in that level wasn't a requirement to become an Essence God, it was officially called Fake Essence God by those more powerful.

Moreover, there was an important detail in Liye's state as he was technically dead, and his reincarnation was still far weaker than a peak Law God. After the Origin Link stopped, the theoretically permanent enhancement of power would disappear because Yale wouldn't meet the requirements due to his low level, but if Yale managed to become a peak Law God, he would instantly become a Fake Essence God as the Condensed Essences were already fused in his body.

"Do you still think that the power of numbers can beat me?"

All the members of the True Empire were cursing Liye internally because they knew that they had no chance against him after he became a Half Essence God.

The leader clenched his teeth before speaking.

"We will leave this continent right now, and we promise to never come again."

The leader knew that they had underestimated Liye too much and that battling was useless, so he wanted to retreat and come again in the future after having prepared better.

"As if I were to believe the promises of people like you."

Liye's words frightened those experts from the True Empire, and they didn't dare to reply because they weren't planning to fulfill that promise and those were just empty words. Moreover, they didn't dare to make an oath because if they stop their invasion plans, they would still be killed even if Liye let them flee.

"You know that we have a powerful backing! If you dare to kill us, our backing will come to this world to kill you!"

Liye smiled when he heard those words.

"I know that very well. However, I fear that killing all of you won't be enough to lure anyone here."

Liye looked toward the sky, to the place he knew the Mysterious Expert was looking at them. Despite Liye being unable to see the Mysterious Expert at that moment, he knew that the Mysterious Expert was there.

"This won't be enough, coming to this world is far too dangerous for those people, killing those people won't be enough, but it is the first step."

The Mysterious Expert spoke while being in the sky despite being alone and without anyone capable of hearing those words.

Although Liye didn't hear the Mysterious Expert, he knew the situation very well, killing those experts in front of him was far from sufficient to lure the big shots.

"Now, I will show all of you, that when battling against someone at my level, there is no need for me to attack you. I can kill you just by forcing you to train."

A devilish smile appeared in Liye's face, the method he had planned to deal with them wasn't an attack, but a special training method that had the highest mortality rate in the whole universe.

Those who survived were all incredible talents with boundless potential. Of course, Liye was someone who cleared that training successfully.

Moreover, Liye knew that his opponents didn't have any chance to succeed in that training, because except one, all the others had their potential wasted, and the one who advanced normally becoming Law God had a trauma that would be lethal for him when doing that training.

Moreover, Liye planned to put all the people that belonged to the True Empire in that forced training. The only ones in the Hyeran Clan what would be spared were the slaves because they were already victims, so Liye would just help them to reincarnate later on. /

"Forcing us to train? Do you plan to kill us with that? I won't say that your attacks can't kill us, but if you want to force us to do something, that is something impossible!"

Liye smiled as he was ready to send them to the most torturous training of their lives.

Chapter 299: Life and Death Trials

All the members of the True Empire in the Hyeran Clan headquarters found themselves suddenly unable to move, and those who were at least Law Masters felt that there was something weird with the laws inside the barrier cast by Liye, but they were still unable to detect the reason for that feeling.

"It is already starting; even I can't stop it now. A true Essence God would be able to stop it at any time, but sadly, with my power, I can only start it. However, don't worry it will end when you succeed or fail."

Liye's devilish smile scared those experts of the True Empire who were unable to move because they felt that Liye was really able to force them to do that training he was speaking of.

"You will remain conscious a bit more until the training starts completely. Thus, I may tell you some points out of boredom."

The experts of the True Empire knew that Liye was teasing them, but they were unable to reply.

"You all will now face the Life and Death Trials, there is a huge benefit if you succeed, but failure would be akin of death."

Liye hid the fact that failure was far worse than simply dying, but he wasn't informing his opponents to help them.

"That is the official name, but it has another one, Reincarnation Trials. The training is simple; you will face in your minds ten thousand reincarnations without losing your memories. The answer you obtain after experiencing all of them will determine the result. The chances of success are one in a thousand million being optimistic, but you I need to tell you that I succeeded in that training before, so I can guarantee that success isn't impossible."

After Liye finished his words, all the members of the True Empire lost their consciousness as they sunk up into the trial.

Liye wanted to laugh as he had just mixed truth and lies to explain those people the Life and Death Trials.

It was true that Liye succeeded in that trial before and that there would be a ten thousand simulated reincarnations in their minds. However, Liye lied in respect of the answer that needed to be obtained to success because although a global answer was needed at the end, there was another one needed at the end of each reincarnation cycle.

Although not having a correct answer in those answers wouldn't make the trial fail, only failing the last one would provoke immediate failure, it wasn't without consequences.

The first fail didn't have any impact on the person, but a messed life and death aura would appear on their bodies to notify the Essence God who cast the trial that something went wrong.

In those cases, usually, the Essence God would stop the trial to avoid the person undergoing it to have true harm at the next failure.

The Life and Death Trial was a test to improve the control of Life and Death and cleaning the trial was one of the methods to be able to train Life and Death as if they were only one. Thus, in case of danger the one who cast it wouldn't risk the disciple's life for just that.

The consequences of the second failure would affect the soul directly and would erase part of it. Moreover, after that, failing would be even easier, and the soul part erased each time would also increase in each failure.

There were a lot of crazy people who wanted to succeed no matter what and asked the Essence God in charge to not stop under any reason. However, all of them ended lost in those reincarnations and their souls dissipated in the real world, or they managed to get out after failure but having lost self-awareness and didn't even know who they were, and usually, they ended up killing themselves because they felt life more painful than death.

Liye disappeared from the sky and went to look to the enslaved people as there were no need to check the members of the True Empire. Although the time in those ten thousand reincarnations was thousand times quicker, even with an average of hundred years in each reincarnation, they would still need about thousand years to finish in case of success.

Those reincarnations were truly random, sometimes being a newborn or sometimes appearing as someone already grown up, so the length of each life was different in each reincarnation and was difficult setting a standard, but about a thousand years was considered the average.

Liye looked for all the slaves and sent them to reincarnation freeing them from slavery in the process. Liye put special attention into the reincarnation of a little girl and ensured that she would have a better life after reincarnation than the others that would have a random one. That little girl was Hyrk's little sister who was unable to resist the enslavement of the True Empire and ended becoming their toy.

Since Liye felt that there was some fate between him and Hyrk and even helped Hyrk in his last battle, he also decided to help his sister.

When Liye finished sending all the slaves to reincarnation, he felt that some members of the True Empire in the Life and Death trials died.

"So fast? This doesn't have any sense; it has been less than an hour in the real world."

Liye teleported to the place where those who died were, and he found that those who had died were the Fake Law Masters and the Fake Law Gods.

"Maybe the forced increase of power made their souls destroy after having entered in the Life and Death Trials."

It was just as Liye guessed, they were people who were doomed to never reincarnate again, and his souls couldn't resist even a simulated reincarnation.

When Liye was about to leave again, he saw that some blood flooded from the True Empire's leader stomach.

"Did he kill himself? That is the greatest taboo in the Life and Death Trials, being killed by others was alright, and you will just go to the next reincarnation, but if you kill yourself, you will also kill yourself in the real world, and your soul would be tortured eternally without truly existing in this world."

Of course, a wound in the stomach wasn't that important for a Law God, but the death was because the leader of the True Empire also provoked the destruction of his own soul in the real world after killing himself. However, he would feel an endless torture in the Life and Death Trials forever. In fact, not even Liye understood well how that worked, but there was no doubt about the fate of those who killed themselves in the trial.

Usually, it was always told by the Essence God casting the Life and Death Trial that no matter the circumstance, one should never provoke his own death. Just because you don't like one of the lives of the trial you couldn't rely on such a shortcut. Of course, Liye skipped that explanation as he didn't want to train them but to kill them.

"Well, the most problematic one already died. The others wouldn't be able to succeed due to that mark on their souls, so it is just a matter of time that they died."

Initially, the only one who had a slight chance to succeed was the leader of the True Empire because he didn't have a mark on his soul. Thus, Liye planned to let him suffer until the Origin Link's effects were about to disappear and then Liye use his last power to send the True Empire's leader to the Purgatory World, but at the end, there was no need for that.

The Purgatory Word and the Reincarnation Trials had some points in common since Liye's father created the Purgatory World based on the Reincarnation Trial, but the later has the effect of wiping out parts of the soul that were replaced by new ones after each reincarnation. The torture felt by losing parts of oneself while reincarnating was far worse than just endless reincarnations. Of course, the Purgatory World provoke more desperation in a long-term as the reincarnations are always hopeless while in the Life and Death Trials the fate was random.

However, having a good fate in the Life and Death Trials was sometimes worse than a bad fate as would make it easier to lose oneself in the simulated reincarnation and failing the trial.

"I still remember when I did this trial. When I told my answer to father, he said that it was quite a unique one. Sadly, Revgen failed, and my father needed to save him after the first failure."

Revgen endured very well the first five thousand reincarnations, but after that, he made a huge mistake, and his master didn't plan to let him die due to continuing the trial.

As for Liye, he completed the whole trial without a single mistake and the time he spent was far longer than it should have been. Usually, staying longer meant bad news as one would have lost into the reincarnations.

However, Liye chose to accept all the identities obtained in those reincarnations turning them part of his self instead of rejecting them or let them erase his original self. All those lives turned to be successful ones; no matter how they started, Liye managed to build up his own fate the ten thousand times.

That was the reason for Liye not feeling attached to just one True Name and the fact that he usually created a new identity in foreign worlds instead of using one of those that already existed.

In fact, even Liye considered that Yale was just another of his identities, just that was an identity with sealed memories that wasn't fully aware of the other ones.

All the lives Liye had experimented due to the trial or by changing his identity had contributed something important to him that made him different from before experimenting them, and Yale had developed something that Liye had always lacked, affection for the family.

The fact that Liye didn't feel affection that surpassed the level of friendship was due to a curse that was cast on him before being born by an enemy of his father. However, the damage on Liye's soul also erased part of the curse while the Mysterious Expert modified the Last Wish System before Yale was born to use it as a seal to the rest of the curse making it easy for Yale to develop affection towards people, he considered his family.

Chapter 300: Revgen Empire's Victory

Liye left the Hyeran Clan headquarters and flew towards the Mysterious Expert after dissipating the barrier around the Hyeran Clan.

"How is the progress?"

The Mysterious Expert shook its head before replying.

"As expected not enough. However, that didn't matter, the ruckus you provoked had been enough to alert that person, and that is the most important thing."

Liye had heard of that person from the Mysterious Expert, but he still didn't know how to react about that topic.

"Is he… Is my legacy disciple really so important for the plan? My memories are just from when I created the Origin Link, so I haven't any memory about him, but as far as I heard, he was just a normal person on the verge of death when I meet him."

Liye didn't mean to belittle his legacy disciple, but it was difficult for Liye to imagine that since he died, his disciple had been able to turn strong enough to be a decisive factor.

"Currently, he is already an Essence God, so he is even stronger than you. Even though the laws and essences he trained weren't as difficult as yours, his presence is extremely important for the plan."

Liye had already heard that from the Mysterious Expert before, but even if he would feel proud of a disciple that was really so quick in training, he felt it difficult to believe.

"Well, if he would be of help to Yale in the future is already alright."

After saying that Liye disappeared in the midst of the air.

"It is still too early for Yale to meet that person, but in the same way that you unknowingly have just changed his fate, he would also change Yale's fate indirectly."

Liye had already disappeared, so no one heard the Mysterious Expert's word, but speaking alone wasn't something strange for the Mysterious Expert.

After disappearing from the Mysterious Expert's side, Liye appeared high on the sky and extended his hands.

"All souls that died being loyal to our continent! I will let all of you reincarnate and live once again!"

Liye's face paled a bit as his remaining time shortened a lot after doing that, but he felt that was the only way to pay back to those who died in the hands of the True Empire.

Of course, Liye's power would only work on souls that still had enough strength to reincarnate on their own because Liye's power would only guide them and made them capable of recovering their memories.

Sadly, Liye didn't have enough time left to force all the extremely harmed souls to reincarnation ensuring that they wouldn't dissipate in the process, so they would have to rely on their luck, but recovering their memories would be most likely impossible.

After all the souls were reincarnated, Liye teleported to the Imperial Palace where all the army of the Revgen Empire was waiting after having returned from their missions.

"The True Empire disappeared from this continent!"

Liye and Revgen shouted those words at the same time after both nodded to each other.

"Long life to the Revgen Empire!"

Everyone started to shout that after hearing the result of the war, it had been a huge victory for the Revgen Empire. It wasn't like there hadn't been any casualties on the Revgen Empire's side but given how many people of the other party died till the point they were eradicated completely; the casualties of the Revgen Empire were almost inexistent.

Liye's gaze went to the corner where Wyba's Army was stationed. Durgan and Birgh were both there with tears in their eyes after they found Hyrk's corpse on the back of the wolf leader. They saw that Hyrk dyed smiling and at least they managed to recover the body, which being in a war was already a lot.

Hyrk had been the only casualty in the rescue party, and everyone else managed to return safely with all the rescued kids. However, Durgan and Birgh couldn't avoid feeling guilty for Hyrk's death.

Liye didn't know what happened to Hyrk's soul, but since his soul was badly damaged, Liye didn't have any hopes that he managed to reincarnate successfully. Even if a miracle happened and his soul managed to reincarnate, the chance of him recovering his memories would be almost zero, so it wouldn't be different than permanent death.

"Call all of those who have some relationship with me; I will use my remaining time to help all of them."

Liye wanted to spend his remaining time enhancing the power and knowledge of those who might help Yale in the future.

"Right, I also need to leave a present for Yale, from now on he won't be able to rely on Origin Link as a trump card, so it is better making some preparations."

Saying that to himself, Liye entered the Imperial Palace hoping to be able to help as much as he could before disappearing when Origin Link ended.

In the void between worlds, two middle-aged men were moving at high speed. Although if one were to see them in the distance, they might seem like ordinary humans, their heights were about ten times higher than that of a human, and they also had a small horn on their foreheads.

"It is that true? My nephew, who was reincarnated into that world after the previous failure, have his soul dissipated?"

The other man nodded.

"Yes, there is no doubt about that. That guy was always reckless, and probably he got discovered. However, we need to avenge him."

Both men were peak Law Gods, but they didn't know that the man they were speaking had also become a Law God before dying. Although a new Law God and a peak Law God had quite a big difference in power, they would have been far more cautious if they knew that.

"True. It was already shameful enough that he reincarnated as a lowly human, but having his soul dissipated while being in that form is a shame for all our race. How is the current power in that world?"

The uncle of the True Empire's leader didn't know too much about the matter because he just rushed out after hearing the news about his nephew death. It was only after a while that he calmed himself and started to ask for information, but at that moment that had almost reached their destination.

"The great master of that world is considered disappeared from long ago, there is no news about him, but we shouldn't underestimate him; if he were to appear, we are all doomed, someone at that level can't be found if he didn't want to be found. However, that world was created to present it to his son, so I doubt that the great master is hiding in that world right now."

The True Empire leader's uncle nodded as he remembered something.

"Right, that young master was the one who died in that struggle for the Origin Path years ago, right?"

Those two men had a Fake Origin Path each one, and both were well aware of the news regarding the last Origin Path that appeared.

"Yes, but even if his soul was already doomed, he managed to flee, so no one knew where he died. He deserved it, trying to get an Origin Path isn't something a lowly human can do!"

Both men had been speaking by Spiritual Sense as it was impossible to use the normal voice in the void between worlds, so it should have been impossible for someone else to hear their words.

"What did you say?"

However, a voice appeared on their minds interrupting their conversation and making them stop abruptly.

"Who is interrupting us? We were talking about a trash who died for being too greedy. All humans shall die as they aren't worthy of existing."

In fact, the True Empire leader's uncle not only despised humans, but he also thought that any living being that was of a different species was an existence that shouldn't exist.

"I am a human; do you think that an ant like you can insult me and escape alive?"

The faces of both horned giants changed when they felt a mighty power surrounding them.

"This is bad; this person is an Essence God…"

The other giant man wanted to punch his companion for being so rude before, but he had also spoken badly about humans just before. Although he also despised other species, it wasn't good saying that openly without verifying who was the other party even though it was clear that the other party had heard the whole conversation.

"Mister, I am sorry for our rude words, we accept the punishment mister thought is convenient for us. However, we have a huge power backing us, and I am sure that you won't want to provoke problems among our factions just by some rude words, right? We hope that the punishment didn't go too far."

Essence Gods couldn't be looked down, but since both of them had a powerful background, they hoped that the Essence God in front of them would just torture them a bit before freeing them.

"Factions? The world you are going to attack is my master's world, and you told me to worry about factions. Are you fools? Or maybe do you think that I am a fool?"

The man who was speaking to them appeared, he was quite tall for being a human nearing two meters, but he seemed really small in front of the two giants.

The faces of those two horned giants changed when they saw the person in front of them.

"I know who you are! How can you be here? You should have been lured by that group of people, why are you here."

The True Empire leader's uncle spoke without thinking, which only worsened the situation for them.

"So, that was a trap. If it weren't because I sensed master's power on my way and changed my way, I would most likely fell into a trap. It seems that even now my master is helping me."

After thinking that he looked towards those two horned giants and their bodies turned into stone before breaking together with their souls.

"Master, I dealt with those bastards for you. I hope to meet you again and repay your kindness, although I know that I will never be able to repay all you did for me."

Saying those words, Liye's legacy disciple continued his way to the world where he had sensed his master's power.

Chapter 301: Last Wish System Upgrade

In the top of a bed, Yale slowly opened his eyes disoriented and without knowing where he was.

There wasn't anyone else in the room to explain the situation to him, so Yale needed a few minutes until he remembered everything on his own.

"That is right, this time I really died, but Origin Link activated and saved me…"

Yale remembered how his heart was pierced and his body sent to fly due to that shameless sneak attack.

Making an effort, Yale could also remember Liye's actions while the Origin Link was active, but he couldn't remember it everything as if there were parts that Liye didn't want to let Yale see.

"Anyway, it seems that the True Empire is really finished, so it wasn't a waste that Origin Link activated."

Yale felt pain for the fact that his greatest trump card had been used, but he understood that he would have needed to use it later on against the True Empire or there was no way he could have won against them. Thus, Yale felt that the result would have been the same.

After Yale stopped thinking about that topic, Yale tried to check the Last Wish System, but instead of the usual reaction, the system sent him a notification.

"The Last Wish System has been upgraded."

Yale was shocked after hearing that, but due to the fact that Yale knew that the Origin Link was Liye's last chance to help Yale directly, he understood that the upgrade was something Liye did before the Origin Link ended.

After the notification, Yale finally accessed the system, and the first thing he did was checking the Stats Menu.

"Name: Yale Age: 17 Origin Level: 71 Origin Points: 130M/13M"

"Vitality: 131M Strength: 142M Agility: 141M Intelligence: 150M Wisdom: 150M Dexterity: 130M"

Yale couldn't believe what he saw because the fact he had already turned seventeen meant that he spent a lot of time sleeping after the Origin Link's effects disappeared.

The other shocking part was his level; he had skipped two whole ranks and entered directly into the Elder Rank. Although Yale was still at the 1-star Elder Rank, he was already half-way to the next one, but the difficulty to increase his level at that point wouldn't be easily given the huge numbers he needed. The numbers of the stats had increased so much that the system started using an M to represent millions.

Although Yale didn't dislike that huge increase in power, he felt that he cheated since he hadn't put any effort in training and was unconscious the whole time.

What Yale didn't know was that his increase in power was mostly due the fact that Liye fused the Condensed Essences with Yale's body, so the potential of the physical body reached a whole new level and it would have been difficult for Yale's level to advance less given that situation.

Yale didn't find anything strange in his Skill Menu even though his swordsmanship had reached the level nine of the grandmaster stage despite being only at the level one before Origin Link activated. Of course, that increase was due to the fusion with the Condensed Sword Essence.

The menu that had changed a lot was the Quest Menu, it wasn't subdivided into types like before, but it had only a list of quests listed as main quests.

Of course, all the quests Yale had from before the upgrade had been already completed making that the Storage Space improved and that information about the Condensed Essences appeared in his head, but Yale had yet to check that information.

As for the new Quest Menu, there was only a single line on it after the list of completed quests.

"Requirements not meet. The quest will appear once the user fulfills the conditions."

That behavior was new to the Quest Menu, but Yale guessed that it was probably part of the upgrade of the Last Wish System as the other two menus he had already checked didn't have any change in their functionality.

Yale also checked the Craft Menu, which he rarely used, but it was like the Stats Menu and the Skill Menu, it didn't seem to have changed.

When Yale was already thinking about if the upgrade was only meant for the Quest Menu, he noticed that a new menu had appeared in the Last Wish System.

"So, that menu should be the main reason for the upgrade."

That new menu was called Authority Menu.

"Current world: Second level World's Authority."

Yale remembered something about Liye using that World Authority before, but given the difficulty in using it, Yale knew that wouldn't be useful for him in the near future.

However, that wasn't the only thing displayed on the Authority Menu.

"Body Authority: The body is fused with Condensed Essences of Life, Death and Sword, the control over them increases disregarding everything else."

Yale also remembered how Liye fused with those Condensed Essences and became a Fake Essence God, so that wasn't anything relevant to Yale either.

However, the next part was the one that kept Yale's interest because was labeled as Law Mastery.

"Sword Law: 0% understood."

"Life Law: 0% understood."

"Death Law: 0% understood."

"Time Law: 0% understood."

"Space Law: 0% understood."

"Water Law: 0% understood."

The only Laws that appeared in the list were those in which Yale obtained some insight or those in which his bloodlines gave him an affinity with, but Yale's current mastery of the laws was far too shallow so no matter how it was rounded it could only appear as a zero.

Moreover, it was publicly said that was impossible to train in the Laws before reaching the Grandmaster Rank, so Yale didn't feel weird that he was still in 0% of progression, it was already a feat that he understood a tiny bit.

Finally, there was the last part called Essence Mastery, but the lines in it were even less than in the Law Mastery section.

"Sword Essence: 0% understood."

"Life Essence: 0% understood."

"Death Essence: 0% understood."

Of course, there was no way the numbers of progression in Essences were higher than in the Laws, and only the essences related to the three Condensed Essences fused with Yale's body appeared there.

"Well, this new menu it is really useful for my future training."

The menu was a great help for Yale as he didn't have any way to measure his own control of the Laws and Essences previously. The main reason for that was that since Liye didn't plan to seal his memories, he didn't need such a function as he would have known very well his own progress without the need of any menu.

Yale stopped checking the Last Wish System, he didn't know if there was any other improvement, but at least there wasn't anything else that he could notice at first sight, so he chose to not waste more time and decided to leave the room.

After that, Yale got up of the bed, but something unexpected happened when he put his feet on the floor; the floor was broken instantaneously with numerous cracks appearing in the whole area that surrounded the place where he stepped on.

"What?"

Yale was surprised and fell to the bed due to the shock, which provoked that the bed also broke due to the impact.

"How can I break things so easily?"

Yale was shocked by how easily he broke the floor and the bed, but he calmed himself after a few seconds

"Relax, my power increased a lot, so maybe I only need to get used to it, and I will stop destroying everything."

It was just as Yale said, due to the sudden increase of power in his body, it was difficult for him to measure his strength correctly just after awakening provoking that he unintentionally broke the floor and the bed.

Yale discarded the idea of going out on such uncontrolled state as there was the danger that he would clash against someone else and kill that person on the spot if that person level was lower than his own.

Slowly, Yale stood up again, concentrated in controlling his strength and managed to only create tiny cracks while walking.

"This is better than before, but I need so much concentration just to avoid destroying everything, so it isn't efficient enough. I need to practice more before going out, or Revgen would laugh at me."

Yale would really feel ashamed if someone else saw him in such state. Although those weaker than him, or even Swordmad, wouldn't say anything despite his lack of control, Revgen would surely laugh about that for some thousands of years, which Yale didn't want to happen.

In the end, Yale needed more than four hours until he was able to control his strength correctly. Although his self-control was lower than before using Origin Link, at least there wasn't any danger of him breaking everything due to losing his concentration.

That time, Yale sighed in relief and finally left the room, he wanted to know everything that happened in the span of time he had been sleeping.

Chapter 302: The Three Great Heroes

Yale went out of the room where he had been sleeping and started to walk by the Imperial Palace, but the area seemed empty.

Feeling the situation strange, Yale decided to use his Spiritual Sense to check the Imperial Palace, and he found that almost everyone was in the same area.

"Weird, why is everyone in that place?"

Yale didn't understand the situation well, but he decided that he had to go to that place to confirm what was happening.

However, he didn't have the chance to do it before Revgen appeared in front of him. In the same moment that Yale used his Spiritual Sense, Revgen noticed about it and teleported to Yale's side.

"You finally woke up, quite a good timing."

Revgen knew that Yale would need to sleep for some time after the Origin link ended, but Liye didn't tell Revgen the exact time, so no one knew when Yale would awaken from his slumber.

"Why is a good timing?"

Revgen smiled before replying.

"Tomorrow will be the anniversary of our victory against the True Empire, and there will be a big celebration. You slept for almost a whole year."

At that moment Yale also understood that all the members of the Imperial Family should have been busy preparing everything, so they were all near the area where the anniversary celebration would take place.

"Is that celebration so important?"

Yale understood that defeating the True Empire was crucial, but the open war lasted less than a day, so he felt that it shouldn't be too relevant for the masses as probably they didn't even know about it.

"It is. The news about the war against the True Empire and the treason of the Hyeran Clan are public, and everyone knew about it. After that, the respect of the commoners towards the imperial family and the noble clans increased a lot."

The commoners weren't too smart from the start, so it wasn't difficult for them to believe everything and regard the noble clans and the imperial family as heroes who saved everyone. Fortunately, Revgen ordered that only the truth was told because even if they had lied probably the commoners would also believe it.

"Then, let's go to see how are going those preparations, I am curious about what are you planning to do for the celebration."

After saying those words, Yale teleported to the area where the celebration was being prepared, and Revgen followed him. Both of them appeared in a high place where they could see the whole area easily.

The area was enormous, prepared to let a lot of people from outside to attend the celebration, and there was a huge statue in the middle, but the person in which that statue was based shocked Yale.

"Hyrk?"

Yale truly didn't expect to find a statue of Hyrk in that place.

"That is right; this statue is based on Hyrk. The statue will be shown to others for the first time tomorrow and will remain in the city as part of the story of the Revgen Empire. After the ceremony, we will move it to outside the Imperial Palace to let everyone admire it."

Yale knew that Hyrk died and that Liye helped him in his last moments, so he didn't oppose to Hyrk having a statue, but he wondered if the commoners would like it since Hyrk was a member of the Hyeran Clan.

Revgen seemed to understand Yale's thoughts as he continued explaining.

"I ensured that Hyrk's story was told without any mistakes to the commoners. The story about how the only member of the Hyeran Clan loyal to the Revgen Empire battled while disregarding his own life for saving all the children kidnaped by the True Empire."

Without Hyrk, more than ten thousand innocent children would have died, and it was only because he acted as bait that the others escaped successfully. Moreover, Hyrk was the one who told the Imperial Family about the Hyeran Clan treason, so Hyrk was truly deserved to be considered a hero.

"I am sure that Hyrk would be happy with this situation."

Revgen nodded to Yale's words as he had heard from Nurvey about how much Hyrk valued his pride as a noble, and the act of risking everything to save so many innocent lives was something that anyone could feel proud. Even though the name of the Hyeran Clan had been tarnished for all the eternity, Hyrk's honor wouldn't be tainted, and he would be remembered as a hero by the next generations of people of the Revgen Empire.

"In fact, Nurvey was the one who asked me to honor Hyrk in this way, but personally I also feel that he deserved this kind of recognition. By the way, you also have a statue, but that it is just in the main plaza of the city just beside my statue."

There wasn't any statue of Revgen before, but after he appeared in front of the noble clans in the war, everyone thought that he needed a statue, and since he was unable to say no, Revgen didn't lose time and dragged Yale with him. Needless to say, that neither of them liked things like statues of themselves being shown in public, it didn't fit their personalities.

"Don't tell me that you are shy about others seeing you in a statue because I have already seen that real size plush of you that Nurvey had in her room and that is far more embarrassing."

When Yale was about to reply to the fact that no one told him about the statue, Revgen added that part letting Yale without any argument for refusing the decision. In fact, it was just as Revgen said, having a statue was far better than having real size plushies of himself, but the problem was that he had both.

Yale stopped thinking about statues and looked towards the people making preparations; there was one group that caught his attention because it was huge and mainly conformed by kids.

"Those are the kids rescued from the True Empire. They had some psychological damage, so we have been helping them this last year. Now that they are recovered is time for them to return to their homes if those still exist or we can let them serve as apprentices of servants if they didn't have any place to go and wanted to remain here. However, before, they will act tomorrow to express their gratitude to Hyrk and the other members of the rescue team for saving their lives."

Revgen saw that Yale was looking towards the kids, so he explained the whole situation to him.

Although all the members in the rescue group agreed to let Hyrk had the highest recognition due to his sacrifice, they still had some credit in the rescue operation.

At that moment, the kids were practicing with some of the teachers that had been helping them in the last year. Of course, the kids were the ones wanting to express their thanks; those teachers were only teaching them the procedures to do it as they were too many and without any coordination, it would have been too chaotic.

Among those teachers, Yale recognized Durgan and Birgh. The two of them felt so guilty for Hyrk's death that made them decide to help those kids until they could return to their normal lives, so both volunteered to act as the teachers of those kids.

"I will go to speak with them."

Revgen nodded, and Yale teleported towards them. Revgen didn't want to meet those juniors, but he knew that Yale had some relationship with them, so he didn't oppose Yale's intentions.

Although all the kids and teachers seemed to be in one group from a distance, they were a bit separated in groups with two teachers with each group of children.

"It has been a long time, are you two doing well?"

Everyone in that group got scared when Yale suddenly appeared before them. Yale truly liked how he could teleport freely as long as he was inside the Imperial Palace.

"Yale?"

Durgan was also shocked, but he was the first in recognizing Yale because he was the one with the closest relationship with him of all the group.

"Yes, I am Yale. Don't tell me that you forgot me?"

Durgan quickly shocked his head.

"I don't dare; I was just shocked right now."

Durgan knew about Yale's true identity as the reincarnation of the ancestor of the Larken Clan and the truth about who killed all the higher-ups of the True Empire, so he really felt respect towards him, and was thinking that he had entrusted his sister to the correct person.

"We haven't spoken since the special realm. It is a pleasure to meet you again."

Although Birgh had heard how Yale announced the end of the war at the same time as Revgen and knew that he had a statue just at the side of the Emperor's statue, she didn't know Yale's true identity although knew that it should be quite special.

"That is true. I was too busy and didn't have time to visit you in the Tofesh Clan."

Yale had a good impression of her due to her relationship with the crafter of his sword, Tofesh, and remembered that Liye saw Durgan and Birgh at the end of the war, but there wasn't any exchange of words between the two parties.

"Are you really one of the three great heroes of war?"

One of the kids in the group couldn't resist the impulse to speak because he had seen Yale's statue before and since the name also matched, the kid was sure that one of the three great heroes was in front of him, so he couldn't avoid asking in shock.

Revgen, Yale, and Hyrk, those three names were publicly known as the three great heroes of war. Hyrk for his sacrifice saving the kids, Revgen for his excellent command of the army and Yale for unknown reasons, but since Revgen announced that Yale's contribution was the highest and that the exact contributions couldn't be told because involved some secrets of war, the people didn't question too much.

Moreover, once it was known that the flying wolf that rescued Hyrk's corpse wasn't loyal to Revgen but to Yale, everyone thought that there was no way Yale was simple. Those thoughts confirmed when Yale's statue was placed in the same place of Revgen statue.

Revgen feared that telling that Yale was the one who eradicated the True Empire experts would provoke problems for him since his power would be lower after awakening and it would be difficult to believe for others.

Chapter 303: Revelation in the Storage Space

"I am."

Yale just said two words in reply as he didn't know how to react against the sparkling eyes of the kid who asked him. He didn't know how to reach in such situations with unknown people looking with awe at him, so he was bad dealing with such situations.

"Don't be disrespectful with him. You can't start asking important people without permission. Say sorry."

Birgh quickly reprimanded the kid who spoke with Yale, but it wasn't like if Yale was angry by the words of the kid. The kid was only admiring him, and there wasn't anything bad on it, the problem was just Yale's lack of enough social capabilities to deal with the situation.

"Don't be too hard on him; he was just too excited to control himself. I don't need him to apologize."

Birgh didn't seem happy when Yale rested importance to the matter, but the kid looked towards Yale with even more admiration after seeing how open-minded Yale was. After all, even the kid noticed that he shouldn't have spoken without permission and just as Yale said, he lost the control of himself.

"Yale, don't blame her, she seems to have developed some maternal love for the kids in charge of her and sometimes I don't know if she is their teacher or their mother. I won't be surprised if she adopts some of them."

Birgh turned red when Durgan spoke because she knew that she had been acting like that for a long time despite never having shown such interest on kids before. She had only offered to help them as a method to honor Hyrk's sacrifice, not because she was someone who liked kids, but in the end, she ended attached to them to the point that she didn't want to part with them.

However, she was angry with Durgan for saying that in public.

"Well, it isn't like if I don't have any attachment to them. Some of them are really good with the sword, and I want them to follow me to the Larken Clan as my disciples, ha, ha, ha."

Seeing that Birgh was angry, Durgan tried to rest importance to his previous words; since the day he discovered that Birgh was like a demon when she was angry, he didn't dare to angry her no matter what, but he seemed to have a predisposition to angry her unconsciously. Of course, Durgan really planned to bring some talented kids in the sword to the Larken Clan if they didn't have any other place to return, but he didn't feel an attachment for all of them like Birgh.

"I am sure that the kids that don't have any place to return will be happy with any of you, they all seem pretty attached to both of you, I am sure that both of you have been really good teachers to them. Well, I still have some matters to attend, contact me if something important happens."

Without losing any more time, Yale disappeared and reappeared beside Revgen. Yale didn't know about the situations of the families of those kids, nor anything about their current situation, so giving any advice would have been bad; given Yale's prestige, it wouldn't have been strange if they followed his advice blindly even if it wasn't the best choice. Thus, he only spoke some generic words that the other two already knew. After all, there was no way Durgan and Birgh failed to recognize how attached were those kids to them.

"Are you worried for those kids?"

Revgen asked Yale at the same moment the later appeared.

"I am worried, but to be more exact, after seeing those kids I am worried about the current situation of the Empire after the destruction of the True Empire."

Since Hyrk died for those kids, Yale was truly a bit worried about their fates, but he didn't plan to admit it in front of Revgen, so he only said that he was worried by the Revgen Empire. Moreover, it was also true that Yale worried about the state of the Revgen Empire because there were a lot of cities and towns destroyed by the True Empire before the war with Nacesai City being one of them, only the Nacesai Academy survived and because Yale acted to save them.

"Most cities and towns had been in reconstruction the last year, and those with survivors are already looking to recover their kids. Although the parents of most of them are dead, most of them also had some family left."

Although that wasn't Yale's question, Revgen didn't fail to notice that Yale also wanted to hear that last part about the kids.

"That is good. I don't care about the fates of the people in the Revgen Empire, but at least I care for the after effects of the True Empire. The fact that the people are reconstructing everything after the war is good."

Although Yale's words were rude, they were the truth. Revgen was an Emperor and worried about his subjects, but Yale didn't worry about them unless they were related to him. However, since the True Empire came derived from the continental war, Yale didn't want the people of the Revgen Empire to suffer more due to them.

"You are as cold as always. By the way, I was wondering if you would let me see my granddaughter. Don't misunderstand me, if you like her, I have no problems in both of you being together, but you had her for such a long time in that dimension of yours…"

Yale didn't expect that they were still inside the Storage Space, but Liye had never taken them out, so it was logical that they were still inside. Since Yale didn't remember everything of the time the Origin Link was active, he thought that they had been freed in one of those moments.

"That is my wrong. Don't resist."

At that moment Yale entered to the Storage Space followed by Revgen.

Both of them appeared on the area Nurvey's group had been living the last year after Liye left the Special Realm.

"Look, Yale returned, and there is someone with him."

Everyone rushed towards the place where Yale and Revgen where, and the first in recognizing Revgen was Nurvey.

"Grandfather…"

Nurvey felt wrong for having disappeared one year without notifying her grandfather about it, but she had no way to exit nor communicate with the outside.

"Little lass, I know that you wanted to go to live to the world of your beloved, but you should at least tell me about it before."

Revgen truly felt that Lar and his old friend were really compatible, so he didn't cease his intents of putting both of them together.

"It isn't like that…"

Nurvey hadn't seen Yale the whole time, so it was illogical saying that she was there due to Yale. However, she couldn't truly deny that there was something she loves in the Storage Space.

"Respects to Emperor Revgen"

The others bowed to Revgen once he saw them.

"Where is Ange?"

Yale noticed that in front of him there were only Nurvey, Kermu, and Serka.

"She is now with our neighbors. You should have told us, specially Nurvey, that Wyba is also here."

In the year they spend there, they discovered Aiwai's house and met her and Wyba because Aiwai decided to let them enter. Of course, that was an extremely happy moment to Nurvey who hugged Wyba in her beast form or her half-beast form equally.

Aiwai introduced herself as Yale's big sister despite being a half-beast, but when they saw her taking human form plus the fact that she was at the Sage Rank, made that no one dared to object. As for Aiwai's beast form, she decided to avoid showing it to outsiders due to her master pointing out the dangers of it; the fewer people knew about that, the better.

"I see that all of you improved quite a bit in this time."

Revgen didn't fail to notice the level of those three, and he was greatly surprised. Nurvey and Kermu were still at the same level as when Liye left, but they reached it in both paths at that moment, and their power was already stabilized; both of them benefitted enormously of Liye's guidance.

Serka had reached the 2-star Practitioner Rank in the Magus Path, which was a great progress thanks to Ange's teachings, but although her Warrior Path also improved, it still lacked as was only at the 4-star Apprentice, and that was only because Kermu taught her.

"It is only because we received some guidance."

Kermu knew that the one who taught them was Yale's past life so unconsciously looked toward him while speaking.

"Oh, so you also taught my granddaughter. I know that you like talents like her."

Yale didn't bother to reply Revgen's words that had a double meaning.

"Let's go to see the others."

Everyone nodded to Yale's words as it was obvious that after such a long time, Yale also wanted to see his sisters.

Yale didn't dare to teleport so many people for fear of the Storage Space destabilizing, so they went walking, both places weren't exactly near, but they weren't that far either for Yale's group.

While walking, Yale checked his newly acquired menu, wondering if he could obtain anything else from it, but the moment he opened it he saw something that made him have a revelation.

"So, it was like this. I am a fool for not noticing it earlier."

Chapter 304: The First Quest of the New Quest Menu

Revgen had been explaining to Nurvey, Kermu, and Serka about the current state of the Revgen Empire, including Hyrk's heroic death and how after death he was considered one of the three great heroes together with Yale and Revgen himself.

"If it is like Emperor Revgen says, I am sure that Hyrk died without regrets."

Kermu felt a bit regretful of having lost the chance of seeing Hyrk's body, but he knew that the three of them would have started to cry on the spot. Especially for Nurvey with her status, that would have been a problem; even someone like her would cry seeing the corpse of a friend.

Liye hid Hyrk's death from them on purpose to let them train peacefully inside the Storage Space as being altered wasn't good after their powers were unstable due to the sudden increase of power they had.

While they were talking, Yale was trying to hide his smile because that was far too disrespectful, but looking at his new discovery, he couldn't avoid grinning.

"Current World: First level World's Authority."

The first line in the Authority Menu changed after Yale entered into the Storage Space and that meant that the Last Wish System recognized the Storage Space as an independent world and Yale had in that world the same authority that Revgen's master had on the outside.

Of course, the Storage Space could at most be considered an incomplete world or a prototype world, it lacked too much compared with a real one, but it was already a lot.

"This world lacks laws making it unstable, but if I fill it with my own comprehension of laws, it should be possible to improve it."

After the upgrade of the Quest Menu, there weren't any quests to improve the Storage Space any further, so Yale had been wondering how to improve it.

"Let's try it."

Yale's comprehension of the laws was too lacking, but with three Condensed Essences fused with him, his true control was higher than his real comprehension and having the first level World Authority, his prowess was even higher while being in the Storage Space.

Of course, Yale tried with the Sword Law that was the easiest of the three despite not being something needed for the stability of the world. In fact, Yale believed that the world was in more need of elemental laws like the Water Law, but his Water Law was the weakest of all his laws and the only elemental one. Moreover, the only reason he possesses it in the list was that he had Time Freezing Wolf Bloodline.

Yale was trying to infuse the Sword Law into the Storage Space while the others talked, and when they were about to reach Aiwai's house, Yale finally had a small success.

"Eh, I felt that something changed in my sword."

Kermu who was still talking with the others felt something strange in the sword he carried.

"A bit of Sword Law appeared in this space."

Revgen didn't fail to notice that the Sword Law appeared although it was only a tiny bit and far from completion. Revgen knew from the start that the Storage Space was a prototype world hidden in a different dimension that only the owner can access. He had heard his master speak of how he did the same with their current world until he left the world on the outside.

Carrying a world in a hidden dimension was the safest to avoid intruders, but if the creator were to die for some reason, the world inside would be tossed out and if the creator died inside another world probably the other world would be crushed instantaneously.

Yale also felt the changes in the Storage Space, but there was a long way until he could stabilize the Storage Space to turn it into something more similar to a real world. Even the easiest for him and the one in which he had the best control, the Sword Law, only achieved a small success after a lot of effort.

"I wonder why my past life didn't improve it when the Origin link was active… Wait, he did it, that area where Kermu and the others were living is clearly stable. Maybe I can use that area as a template to stabilize the rest."

Yale didn't dare to mess with Aiwai's area because she needed it, but even if the area where Kermu and the others lived was destroyed, there wasn't any problem since they could live outside without problems.

"Conditions met, a new quest is available."

Just after Yale felt that the bit of Sword Law was correctly infused and realized that he could use the area created by Liye as a template, the system reacted.

"Now? It seems that I needed to put a bit of Law here or to discover how to improve the Storage Space to unlock it, but that is quite a weird condition."

Yale stopped thinking about the reasons and just opened the Quest Menu to check the new quest.

"Leave the continent. Time limit: two months."

Yale read it a few times, but he didn't understand the reasons for leaving nor why there was a time limit. Moreover, the system wasn't showing the reward for the quest either.

"Maybe from now on the rewards won't be shown until I complete the quest. Anyway, we are already in Aiwai's house, I can worry about this later on."

Yale and the others entered the area where Aiwai was living, and something shot towards Yale's chest instantaneously.

"Big bro, I missed you!"

Wyba sensed that Yale was there, so she used all her strength to run towards him. Wyba was already at the 9-star Master Rank, so her strength was quite fearsome when running so fast, but for Yale that was nothing and warmly hugged her in reply.

"I sorry, I couldn't go back earlier."

Yale felt wrong for not having gone directly to the Storage Space after awakening, but since Yale knew that Wyba was with Aiwai, he didn't feel that was urgent. However, after seeing Wyba's eyes, he cursed himself for not returning earlier.

Nurvey looked towards Yale and Wyba with jealousy on her eyes, she wanted to hug Wyba, but she didn't dare to interrupt those two at that moment.

"I detect jealousy in your eyes, my dearest granddaughter. Do you want Yale to hug you that badly?"

Revgen didn't miss the chance to speak after seeing Nurvey's eyes, but Nurvey shook her head quickly.

"Emperor, knowing Nurvey, she probably is jealous because she wants to hug Wyba."

Kermu didn't know if Revgen was aware of how much Nurvey liked to hug Wyba, so he wanted to clear any kind of misunderstanding because he knew that Nurvey wasn't capable of defending herself with words.

"Oh, then does she want to be hugged by Yale while she hugs Wyba?"

Revgen remembered about that plush with Yale and Wyba and reformulated the question.

Nurvey couldn't avoid thinking about that, and her face turned red from embarrassment.

"Wyba… is enough…"

Nurvey used all her strength to say those two words, but she was too naive hoping to convince Revgen after her reaction.

"You aren't honest. My friend is a very popular man, and if you don't try hard, someone will steal him from you."

The main worry after hearing Revgen would be that Wyba would also disappear from her life which was far too scary for her. After having lived so much time in the Storage Space, she was already used to have a daily dose of hugging Wyba; she wasn't sure if she would be able to separate from her.

"Yale, why do you only hug Wyba? You also have two big sisters here waiting for you. I understand that you give priority to the little girl, but you shouldn't forget about us."

Yale heard Aiwai's voice and smiled to her; Yale knew the sacrifice made by Aiwai for his sake. Aiwai neared him with Ange followed behind.

"Sister, I am also his daughter, so I should have some priority to hugs."

While Aiwai was distracted by those words, Ange ran toward Yale and hugged him.

Ange had already reached the 3-star Elder Rank in the time Yale had been sleeping; since she unlocked most of her memories, her speed in training had also increased a lot.

Aiwai knew about the relationship between Ange and Yale, but she never expected that the always calms Ange would outrun her to hug Yale. Of course, a second after that, Aiwai also reached Yale, which made the latter a bit suffocated with the three of them hugging him at the same time.

However, since he felt that it was his fault having disappeared for almost a year, Yale decided to endure it and let his three sisters hug him as much as they wanted.

The others just stood in the same place in silence looking at the scene of a reunited family. That time, even Revgen didn't dare to say a word to interrupt them, he felt the scene really touching.

Chapter 305: Planning the Departure of the Continent

Yale wasn't freed until twenty minutes later, but if it wasn't because Revgen and the others were looking at them, Yale didn't know how much that hug would have lasted.

In fact, although Aiwai and Ange already stopped, Wyba was still there, but Yale didn't have any problems with that situation because he could move without problems even with Wyba hugging him.

Revgen also explained the situation of the Revgen Empire to Aiwai's group, but Ange was the only one interested in it. Wyba didn't understand complicated matters, nor she was interested in them, while Aiwai didn't bother about the fates of others as long as her family was safe.

"Revgen, I need to leave this continent, do you have any recommendation?"

After Revgen ended his explanation, Yale decided to ask. Although Yale didn't know the reasons, he didn't dare to question the Quest Menu because until the day the quests had always been beneficial to Yale.

"Leaving the continent? There are only two continents on this world, so it isn't like if you have too much choice. However, forget about leaving by the ocean on the side of this empire even though is the shortest way. I still remember that after master battler there once, that ocean is dangerous enough that would be impossible for even a Law God to survive the travel."

Everyone felt their bodies shiver after hearing how dangerous that ocean was, and Yale didn't have any intention to cross it with his current strength.

"By the way, why do you want to leave the continent? Do you have any important matter?"

Yale could only put a weird smile on his face because he didn't know the reasons.

"I need to go, but I can't remember the reasons…"

Yale's words were the truth; since he believed that his past life modified the Quest Menu, that quest was without a doubt something that Liye wanted Yale to do, but Yale had almost all the memories sealed, so he didn't remember the reasons.

"I understand. In this case, your only choice is leaving by the side of Zuatania Republic. Although the ocean is still dangerous and there is a long distance to the other continent, the danger can't be compared, and it is perfectly possible that you reach the other side alive."

For Revgen to still say that it was dangerous, the other ocean was also something to fear, but at least Revgen was confident that Yale could reach the other side alive. Of course, that was because Revgen thought that Yale still have some trump cards to use, but the truth was that in the midst of the ocean, Yale didn't have any trump card to rely upon.

"Leaving?"

Nurvey was scared at that moment because she didn't doubt that the three sisters of Yale would undoubtedly follow him, so she didn't know how much time would pass without being able to see Wyba again.

"I will go with you! You saved my life and my clan, now that you have to cross the dangerous ocean, I can't be considered your friend if I don't follow you."

Unexpectedly, Kermu was the first to speak offering himself to accompany Yale. There wasn't any second intention like helping Nurvey in his words, that was truly how he was feeling.

"The other continent is far too dangerous, and it isn't ruled by humans, are you sure that you want to go? That would be a good tempering for you, but it is probably that you can't return alive."

Revgen had faith in Yale, but he didn't have that kind of confidence about the others.

"Without facing dangers, I will never mature enough to succeed my master as the clan head of the Kurk Clan. Without true experience, I won't be useful when a dangerous situation that I can't avoid happened. I am determined to follow Yale."

Seeing that Kermu was determined, Revgen didn't try to continue persuading him.

"Well, in case of danger, he could hide in this dimension."

Thinking those words, Revgen decided to let the matter go as Kermu wasn't someone of his family and Revgen didn't have the right to interfere in his decisions.

"Me too."

However, Revgen's attention was caught when Nurvey also wanted to join the expedition. Although Revgen was trying to put Nurvey closer to Yale, he didn't want her to face such a big danger.

"I will also go."

Serka didn't dare to fall behind, all the important people for her was going in that travel, her best friend, her husband, and her cousins. Thus, there was no way she would remain behind.

Revgen wanted to stop Nurvey, but he gave up after seeing that everyone was joining, treating it as good tempering for her of them if she managed to survive.

Of course, the three sisters of Yale were going without needing of saying it, Aiwai couldn't leave the Storage Space, Wyba would rather die than be separated from her family and Ange didn't want to be left alone either.

"Alright, I won't say no if you want to come. Come to the Imperial palace tomorrow, and after the celebration for the anniversary of the end of the wat, we will depart. Now you three should go out and say goodbye to everyone because I don't know how much time we will be outside."

Except for Aiwai and Ange, all the others left the Storage Space at that moment. Since Yale had a time limit, he didn't dare to waste more time. He didn't even know how would reach the other extreme of the continent in only two months.

"I wonder if flying at top speed with my current power I will be able to do it… Wait, there is still another method. I am not sure if it will work, but I need to give it a try."

After saying goodbye to Revgen, Kermu, Serka, and Nurvey, Yale was wondering about that while he teleported to the portal connected with the Larken Clan. After all, if he was going to leave, he should tell about it to Swordmad and the others.

The Larken Clan hadn't changed since the moment Yale left one year before, and even Swordmad and the others were still living there.

Once Yale appeared, Lashar noticed about that and went to receive him, but Yale only replied saying that he wanted to meet with everyone because he had something important to say and went towards a meeting room.

Of course, the first two to run towards the meeting room where Yale was waiting were Lar and Aizu, and both jumped towards Yale who performed a small teleportation to evade them.

"That hurt, why do you avoid me?"

Lar felt wronged after Yale evaded her. Yale had just spent so much time being hugged by his sisters that didn't have any plans to lose more time due to those two girls.

Aizu had more tact, and instead of complaining, he preferred to choose a topic that Yale would like.

"Oh, Wyba is lying on your head. She it is still as cute as ever; can I hug her?"

Wyba had changed to her wolf form and was resting of Yale's head since they left the Storage Space.

"Later, now she doesn't seem to plan to leave my head."

Wyba had missed Yale so much, so she didn't plan to leave him for a while. At least, she was intelligent enough to know that Yale wouldn't be able to act freely if she hugged him with her half-beast form, so she decided to change into her beast form and went to her favorite position.

"Yale, don't ignore me! I even asked that fellow, Revgen, to honor Hyrk because I knew that you would have wanted that. At least, you must praise me!"

Lar recovered a great part of her memories after Liye met her after the end of the war and in that year her power changed completely, she was already at the peak of the 8-star Master Rank.

"I am thankful for that, but you rushed towards me like you were an uncontrolled bull, so I forgot about that."

Yale had nothing to say if his sisters did it, but it was clear that Lar's objective wasn't being his sister, and Yale had no interest in romantic love at that moment. Of course, it was due to the curse on his soul, although he improved and wasn't like in his previous life, it wasn't like if the curse disappeared completely yet.

"Don't call me bull! I am sorry about that, and I accept your anger, but you should also praise for the good things I did…"

Yale sighed and patted Lar's head for her excellent job persuading Revgen; it seemed that Lar's childish personality had yet to improve.

"You also did it well on the time I had been there. Sorry, as a master I neglected you and Mercer."

Yale also patted Aizu's head regretful of having failed to teach her well. Aizu had reached the 1-star Practitioner Rank in both paths, which was a huge feat for her age. Although Liye didn't want to teach her as she was Yale's disciple and wanted that Yale personally taught her, Liye did a master class for Mercer, Aizu, George, and Zack to teach fundamentals of training.

Liye's master class wasn't anything special and any Law God would have been able to explain those things, but Liye's capability of teaching was superb, so the four of them benefited far more than Liye expected.

At that moment, George, Zack, and Mercer entered the meeting room. Originally Lar was in charge of Mercer, but she forgot about him when she rushed to meet Yale, and George and Zack meet him alone on the way to the meeting room.

George was at the 1-star expert Rank and Zack at the 8-star Practitioner Rank, reaching such levels in both paths; it was easy to see how much have those two benefited for the master class imparted by Liye.

As for Mercer, he was at the 9-star Mortal in both paths, but he was hindering his advance on purpose because he didn't want to end like Lar due to having advanced too quickly. He had heard her complaining so many times, that was scared to death about advancing quickly to the next Rank.

Before the three of them could greet Yale, Swordmad also arrived. His talent training the Sword Law was incredible and thanks to that his own level was quickly boosted to the 9-star Grandmaster Rank in the Warrior Path; his Magus Path also advanced, but it only advanced until the 1-star Grandmaster.

"We can let the greetings for later, now that everyone is here, I need to speak with you all."

Chapter 306: You Are My Only Family

"Are you serious?"

After hearing Yale explanation of his plans to leave the continent the next day, Swordmad was shocked.

"I am serious. Sorry, but there is no way to avoid this travel."

Swordmad already knew that Yale was a reincarnated expert. Although that wasn't publicly spread, the higher-ups of the Revgen Empire knew it, and Swordmad with his current level was someone with the qualifications for learning about confidential topics. However, for him, Yale's past life didn't matter because it was Yale the one who became his disciple.

"Then, I will go with you."

Yale nodded immediately to Swordmad's words because he was hoping that Swordmad would say something like that. After all, Swordmad was powerful, and Yale have complete trust with him, he was more like a father than the biological father of his current life.

"I will follow you even if you don't want. I followed you by countless worlds, how can I fail in following you inside this one."

Yale didn't even try to argue with Lar after hearing that because it was just as she said, she would follow him no matter what and if she traveled alone, she might lose her life and that wasn't something Yale would like.

Moreover, Lar was also quite strong, and since she was a reincarnated expert who had recovered a lot of memories, she would be a great ally.

Yale's problem was about the other four because they were too weak, and he didn't know what do if they also wanted to follow, which was something that he predicted that would happen given their personalities.

George was at the same level as Kermu, but their specialties differed too much. The Space Law was useful in a journey across the ocean, but the golems would be rendered useless.

The others were even weaker making the travel far too dangerous for them. Although Serka was at the same level as Aizu and was weaker than Zack, Serka's value was in healing, and since she was Kermu's husband, there was no way to make her remain behind. Aizu also knew how to heal, but her healing prowess couldn't compare with Serka's Time Healing.

"I also want to go!"

Yale heard something like that from those four at the same time, and he was forced to let out a sigh.

"This travel is extremely dangerous, with your strength you all will probably die, are you ready to risk your lives? There won't be a path to return after we depart."

The travel was already dangerous enough, so trying to return alone to the Revgen Empire after having stated the travel was a death wish.

"I want to follow the master, no matter what happens in the future!"

Unexpectedly the first one in speak after Yale's words was Mercer; he knew very well that his fate changed thanks to Yale, and Mercer would rather risk his life than let go the chance of training under a master like Yale.

"Just as my junior brother said!"

After hearing Mercer, Aizu stopped thinking about the consequences of going in such dangerous travel.

Yale was quite surprised of hearing how Aizu treated Mercer as her junior brother, but since both were Yale's disciples and Mercer was younger, for Aizu, that was a correct method to call Mercer and Yale was quite satisfied.

However, that wasn't the main thought in Yale's mind because he hadn't expected that his two disciples were so much determined, and as their master, it would have been too negligent saying no to them after seeing their determination.

After all, Yale already neglected them too much; if after planning to go into a trip of unknown duration, he forbade them from following after they were determined to face the danger, he would be a complete failure as their master.

"Alright, but both of you need to obey me no matter the situation, this isn't a leisure trip."

Aizu and Mercer bowed to Yale while speaking at the same time.

"We will follow master's indications!"

Yale simply nodded after that and looked towards George and Zack. Strictly speaking, neither of them had a reason to follow Yale no matter what happened like the Swordmad and the others, so Yale hoped that they didn't choose to risk their lives.

In fact, Yale was contradicting inside because he wanted them to be safe, but he also had some expectations that they would choose to follow him because maybe they will be able to improve more on the other continent.

There wasn't anyone on their continent who could teach George and Zack well if the measure for a correct master was someone who was at least a Law Master in their specialties. However, there was a chance to find someone who could teach them on the other side since there was far more Law Masters than in their own continent.

At most, Zack could learn archery from Aiwai, but Aiwai's style included flying, so Zack wouldn't be able to learn it perfectly unless he reaches the Grandmaster Rank first.

"I thought that you didn't need my answer. I don't care about danger."

George noticed that Yale was looking at him, so he spoke, but he had really thought that Yale wouldn't even doubt about his determination due to some dangers. However, he knew that in terms of strength he was far behind Yale. Thus, he could understand the reasons for Yale being worried about his safety.

"Yale, it isn't like if I had a place to return even with Nacesai City having been reconstructed, I would rather risk my life helping my friends in a dangerous trip than live my life without accomplishing anything."

Zack really doubted after hearing Yale's words, but in the end, his consciousness didn't let him remain behind to avoid danger with all his friends facing it.

"Alright, you all can come with me. Tomorrow, after the commemoration for the first anniversary of the end of the war we will depart, be ready. However, it is impossible to go back to Nacesai City right now, so if you need to say something to someone there, you will need to wait until we return."

Everyone understood Yale's words, but no one had any plan to return to Nacesai City as they didn't have any family remaining there.

Yale left the room, and Swordmad followed him; the others understood that both wanted to speak in private, so they didn't try to follow them.

"Master, do you want to speak about something?"

Yale was the first in knowing that Swordmad wanted to speak with him, so he walked without any destination instead of going straight to the next place he had planned to go.

"Knowing your identity, I feel honored and happy that you still call me master."

Swordmad still considered Yale as his disciple, but he wasn't sure until that moment if Yale still thought about him as a master or not.

"You helped me and taught me when I was at my weakest. The situation didn't matter, you are my master and like a father for me."

Swordmad smiled when he heard Yale's words because he also considered Yale as his only close family.

"You are also like a son for me. You are my only family."

Yale was happy after hearing that; he knew how much Swordmad valued his students, but he liked to hear those words from Swordmad's mouth.

"I just wanted to speak to you about your father. He returned to Nacesai City with the survivors of the Roanmad Clan that he saved and started the clan again with him being the new clan head. I know that you don't have any interest regarding what happened to him, but I thought that you must know about it."

Yale just nodded in reply to that. He didn't wish anything bad for his biological father in his current life, but he also didn't plan to bother about his well-being. Both of them walked separate ways that probably wouldn't cross again.

Swordmad didn't have any sense of belonging to the current Roanmad Clan, so he never thought of returning, but he knew how much his grandfather cared about the clan in the past, so he was happy that the clan survived the calamity of the True Empire.

"Master, I still have some plans, I will leave for now. The travel will be long, and we will have a lot of time to speak after we depart."

Swordmad nodded to Yale's words and returned to his room.

After finishing speaking with Swordmad, Yale went to his final destination, the place of resting of Wyba's army inside the Larken Clan.

When Yale appeared there with Wyba on his head, the whole pack of wolves lowered their heads in respect for their Demon God and their Goddess.

"We will depart for a long trip, but I can't bring all of you. You are the strongest, so you will come with me, and I will let you choose another one of your pack to follow us. The rest will remain in the Empire to protect it until we return. Understood?"

Yale didn't want to make mistakes, so he didn't want a group that surpassed the limit of the Storage Space in case of everyone needing to hide there in case of danger. As for letting some wolves outside, that would point their location to others, so it wasn't good because Yale couldn't freely appear in whenever part he wished when exiting the Storage Space, he had some range but not too much.

Although Yale had more space and could allow a few more wolves to go, he wanted to have some spare space in case of emergency more than going with all the spots covered from the start.

All the wolves nodded their heads, and a wolf at the Elder Rank stepped ahead sitting at the side of the leader. That wolf was the favorite female of the leader, so he chose to bring it with him as she was also the second strongest of the pack.

Although it may sound bad the fact that the wolf didn't have a single female wolf as a wife, he was a wolf, and moreover, the alpha wolf of the pack. Thus, it wasn't that strange having several female wolves and lots of children.

However, he would never act as Wyba's father and abandon one of the female wolves that were with him for fear of death because he would rather die first.

"Alright, with this everything is ready. Tomorrow will be the day of our departure."

Saying those words more for himself than for the wolves, Yale put those two wolves in the Storage Space and left. Then, he returned to the Imperial Palace.

Chapter 307: Unexpected News

Yale yawned while hearing the variety of speeches that different people said in the celebration ceremony for the first-year anniversary of the end of the war; he didn't like that kind of events, but Revgen forced him to listen.

In fact, Revgen wanted to make Yale say a speech too, but because Yale awakened too late, the schedule couldn't be modified, and Revgen needed to conform with forcing Yale to listen. Of course, Revgen needed to say a long speech, so he felt that it would have been better if he had dragged his good friend with him.

After the most formal speeches ended, the kids rescued in the war started to pay their respects to those who saved them, which was a very long process as there were too many kids and even if they were speaking by groups and not individually, there were still too many of them.

At that moment, Revgen also went to seat in the VIP area with Yale and was yawning as much as Yale. Fortunately, no one could see them from the outside, or the fact the emperor was yawning out of boredom while hearing those kids would have been a great shock for everyone.

"Did you stop fearing showing yourself to others?"

Revgen showed himself in public a lot lately given that even a statue of him was made, but previously he had been hiding from everyone.

"Yes, I didn't notice it at the start, but this whole continent had been completely isolated from the outside, no matter if it is people from other worlds or from the other continent, any possibility of interaction is now impossible.

Thus, I don't need fearing to show myself because an enemy can't discover me. Of course, with a second level World Authority like yours, it wouldn't pose any threat to you to cross the isolation barrier."

When Revgen was ending his words, he remembered that Yale was planning to leave the continent and clarified that Yale wouldn't have any problem.

Hearing Revgen's words, Yale felt like if he knew why the continent was isolated and who did it, but he was unable to remember it despite feeling that was something he knew. Yale didn't have any doubt about that those memories had been blocked for some reason.

"I see."

Yale didn't say anything about his intuition that Liye had some relationship with that because he didn't have any proof

After some hours since the ceremony started, the speeches finally ended, and the party started.

"This had been too long, why did you plan such a boring schedule?"

Neither Yale nor Revgen had any need to sleep daily with their current levels, but they felt like if they were falling asleep at any moment while hearing those seemingly countless speeches.

"Usually is Nurvey the one who plan this kind of things, but since she was in that dimension of yours when the planning started, I let some of the elders plan it. Truly, a bad idea, a very bad idea."

Revgen was regretting his decision and swore that wouldn't happen again because that had been boring to death.

At that moment, a servant knocked on the door.

"Emperor, there are a man and a woman requesting a meeting with someone that is inside the VIP room with you. They are called Durgan and Birgh."

Usually trying to meet the Emperor in that kind of way would be a great sin. However, judging the action wasn't something the servant could decide. If for any reason a servant kicked off someone that the Emperor wanted to see, that servant wouldn't have a good future.

"Let them pass."

Revgen knew that those two spoke with Yale the previous day, so he guessed that they had come to say something to Yale. After all, it wasn't difficult to deduce where Yale since even his statue was placed in the same place as Revgen's statue.

"We pay our respects to the Emperor and the Great Hero."

Durgan and Birgh greeted Revgen politely after entering the VIP area, in which only Revgen and Yale were at that moment.

Yale and Revgen weren't shocked by their greeting because that was a standard formality, but they didn't expect that there was a third voice saying that greeting.

"Yale, my friend, I am sorry to disturb you, but I heard from Lar that you all were departing today after this even ended, and we needed to speak with you."

Durgan was straightforward speaking to clarify that the only reason for their impolite visit was that they wouldn't have another chance later.

"Feel free to speak, but I hope that you aren't planning to come with me."

Durgan and Birgh were too weak, and both planned to take care of some of the kids that wouldn't have a place to return, so Yale hoped that they wouldn't follow him because those kids needed them far more.

"No, it isn't that. I would lie if I say that I am not tempted, but I have important things to do in the Revgen Empire, so I can't follow you."

Yale nodded as Durgan said a reply that was worthy of his honorable personality.

"We come because of this little girl; she is from the Roanmad Clan like you."

Birgh said those words, but her face paled at the same time she saw that Yale's face blackened in anger.

"Sorry, Yale. Birgh failed to measure her words previously. We knew that you have some relationship with them and this little girl is worried about her brother who seemed to flee before the clan switched sides. We only thought that maybe you had heard of him."

It wasn't difficult to know that Yale was related to the Roanmad Clan, but Durgan knew that Yale didn't like to be related with it since Swordmad lived at the Larken Clan's headquarters for a whole year.

"I know that the Roanmad Clan had been reconstructed, but all the members fled together, so as far as I know someone who fled alone, shouldn't be there, but tell me that person's name."

Although Yale didn't want to be related with the Roanmad Clan, he felt that it wasn't wrong hearing the words of the little girl worried about her brother. After all, Yale remembered the names of the members of the Roanmad Clan in the scroll created by Liye, so at least he would be able to confirm if that person betrayed the empire or not.

"My brother is called Blackor…"

The little girl spoke with an almost inaudible voice filled with fear as she was in front of the two alive Great Heroes of the Revgen Empire.

Yale's shock when hearing that name was enormous. That name wasn't on the traitor list, but Blackor was the first opponent Yale face after being born in the Roanmad Clan gathering before he almost died saving Ange.

Moreover, Yale felt that the Blackor that the little girl was speaking of was the same one he had battled in the past as that was quite a weird name, and Yale didn't believe there was someone else with that name in the Roanmad Clan.

"That is a nostalgic name; I still remember when I beat him years ago. However, I have no news of him, but he didn't betray the empire despite his father, your father, betrayed it. That is worthy of recognizing."

Yale didn't know if Blackor was still alive or not, maybe the Nacesai Academy or the Roanmad Clan had some kind of token to check it, but Yale had no means to do the same.

The little girl wasn't surprised that her father was a traitor because the one who sold her to the True Empire and made her live in that underground room was no other than her father. As for Blackor, he ran with all his strength once he started to notice that something wrong was happening to the clan when he saw how a soul mark was being put on some members by coincidence.

He didn't know what a soul mark was, nor what the effect was, but he heard the conversation the others had, and swearing absolute loyalty to someone wasn't something that fit with his personality, so he fled.

"Anyway, you should return to the Roanmad Clan with the other kids belonging there. If Blackor has survived, and now wants to find you, the first place he would go is the new Roanmad Clan."

The little girl nodded timidly after hearing Yale's words. One of her biggest fears was that Blackor had been caught and chose to follow the True Empire.

"Thank you, Yale. This had been a great help for her."

After Durgan spoke the three of them bowed simultaneously towards Yale. At that moment, Durgan's group was going to leave the VIP area, but a voice stopped them.

"Alright, now is my time to ask questions."

No one expected that Revgen would speak at that point, but Durgan, Birgh and the little girl didn't dare to argue about that because the one speaking was the Emperor and they were the ones who went to the VIP area without the formal procedures.

"First, send the little girl off. This isn't related to her"

The servant, who had opened the door previously and stayed inside the room since that moment, took the little girl and left the room without anyone complaining about it.

"Well, when are you two going to marry? I hope that you two didn't expect to marry after the child was born."

Chapter 308: Birgh and Durgan

Yale didn't expect Revgen to speak about such topic, and the faces of Durgan and Birgh paled.

It was true that two days ago, they were quite sad for the fact the kids were about to leave after paying respects to their saviors, so both of them drunk a lot together.

Drinking together led to something that wouldn't be appropriate for them to admit in front of others since both of them weren't married.

"Child? Why did Emperor say that I will have a child and imply that Durgan will be the father? I don't feel anything strange on my body until now, is this a prophecy?"

Birgh was conscious of what happened the two nights ago due to drinking too much, but she couldn't believe Revgen's words as anything that wasn't a prophecy for the future. After all, it was difficult to believe that she was pregnant after just one time.

She had liked Durgan since some time ago while both of them worked together to take care of those kids. Thus, she wouldn't feel strange if in the future she would marry Durgan and had a child with him, in fact, she hoped that it would turn true someday, but she couldn't believe that she was already pregnant.

"My friend is the one who makes prophecies. I am not skilled with that."

Revgen shook his head and then looked at Yale, who didn't argue with that as he had prophesized some things in the past.

"I can detect a faint life aura in your belly, that kind of weak life aura is that of a yet to be born child. More specifically a faint life aura that appears just after pregnancy, there is no doubt of that."

Revgen was a Law God in the Life Law, even though Birgh just got pregnant, he didn't fail in noticing it.

"It was only one time…"

Durgan was shocked by Revgen's words, but he didn't dare to doubt about anything the Emperor said. Moreover, he was also in love with Birgh since almost the same time she fell in love with him. Thus, he couldn't say that he didn't want to marry Birgh and having children with her.

Despite both of them loving each other, both also chose to hide it from the other feeling that it was one-sided. However, after getting drunk, they stopped hiding it which lead to that situation. If they hadn't loved each other from the start, even getting drunk wouldn't have made them commit such act without being married.

"It is true that Birgh is currently pregnant and that Durgan is the father. Congratulations both of you."

Yale was unable to detect such a faint life aura with the Life Law because he lacked in the control of the Life Law, but using the Divine Life Eyes, he confirmed that Revgen's words were true. After all, the Divine Life Eyes could check all the status and problems of the target's body and pregnancy was also shown there. Since Yale knew Durgan, the Divine Life Eyes were even able to determine that he was the father instantaneously.

Durgan and Birgh faces turned red after Yale congratulated them. Both of them couldn't believe it, but it would be weird if the two great heroes of the empire were lying to them.

"I won't be able to attend your wedding, and the people that are going with me wouldn't be able to do it either. That includes Durgan's little sister, so I need to apologize by that. Sadly, our travel mustn't be delayed. However, I will give you your present for the wedding right now. I am sure that you will like it. Take it."

Yale threw out two big pieces of a strange metal to Birgh and Durgan. Liye had looted the members of the True Empire that he had killed and put everything in the Storage Space area that was restricted to others and only Yale could access. Thus, Yale had a vast collection of materials with him, and the ones he threw at them were of such a high quality that made Birgh's face to be filled with excitement; her blacksmith's soul was excited for being able to work with that strange metal.

"Thank you very much. I will use them to make a good weapon to Durgan and another for our child later on."

After storing the strange metal in her spatial artifact, Birgh hugged Durgan's arm making that Durgan's arm fell in the midst of her chest. Durgan's face was red as he wasn't used to such kind of contact and he felt even more shame because they were in public, and the ones in front of him were the emperor of the continent and Yale, who Durgan considered as his brother-in-law despite Yale hasn't married Lar despite the engagement. However, Durgan had already decided that he would marry Birgh as soon as possible since she was pregnant.

Since Birgh was already pregnant, there was no reason for delay anything, although both weren't married yet, they already considered the other as their life-long partner.

In fact, Birgh was already making plans for the wedding in her mind. Although it was a pity that Yale and the others going with him wouldn't be able to attend, she wanted to make the most perfect wedding possible. Durgan deduced Birgh's thoughts, but he planned to accept anything that Birgh decided about that topic as he didn't want to argue and didn't mind too much about how exactly the wedding would be.

"Thank you very much, Yale. It is a pity that you can't assist to the wedding, but we understand that you have important matters outside the continent."

Trying to calm himself, Durgan thanked Yale, but his voice showed that he wasn't calm at all.

"Emperor, you were the one who noticed about our child, do you want to be the best man at the wedding?"

Birgh was lost in her thoughts about the wedding and couldn't avoid asking Revgen because the Emperor was the best option she thought for a best man since Yale wouldn't be there.

"Sure."

Revgen didn't like such kind of events too much, but since he was the one who brought the topic he needed to accept or would be bad for his reputation, who asked him to open his mouth to tease those two youngsters after noticing that the girl was pregnant? Moreover, since Yale would have left the continent at that time, Revgen would need to endure that alone.

"Emperor, Yale, we will be leaving for now. Have a safe trip, Yale."

Durgan said that before walking towards the outside of the VIP area while his arm was still trapped by Birgh. He knew that Bight was lost in her thoughts and that it was better leaving before she thought of using a part of the Imperial Palace as the wedding place and asked Revgen for it. He didn't know that Birgh had already thought about that and planned to ask for it later, there was no need to ask the emperor himself to rent a place in the Imperial Palace for the wedding.

"That was truly unexpected."

The whole situation still seemed quite unbelievable to Yale despite having confirmed by himself. He was wondering how LaR would react when she discovered that she was about to become an aunt.

Fortunately, she wouldn't be there when the kid was born, or Lar might enter in a berserker mode when someone called her aunt.

"Well, probably the only one who would dare to say something like that is Revgen."

After remembering how Revgen usually spoke, Yale believed that he would be the first in teasing Lar with that. Revgen always seemed very serious to outsiders, but to those who were close to him, he wasn't serious at all.

"I hope that their child wouldn't have any problems in the future…"

Revgen said those words with a bit of worry in his voice.

"Problems?"

Yale didn't understand why Revgen was saying that about the future child of Durgan and Birgh. Revgen didn't know how to make prophecies, and even Yale's Divine Life Eyes didn't detect anything wrong in Birgh's belly.

"You sent so many souls to reincarnation, that the chances of the child being the reincarnation of someone are quite high."

At that moment, Yale understood Revgen's worries. Knowing the shock of his biological father for the fact that his children were reincarnated experts, he could imagine how much would that impact anyone else even if the reincarnated ones weren't experts but normal people.

"That is true. Well, the time of reincarnation is mostly random, although so many souls were sent at the same time, a lot of kids born in this last year and they aren't all reincarnations. If Birgh's child had luck, it would be born just a normal child."

Yale sensed the souls that Liye sent to reincarnation and not all the recently born kids in Imperial City had that kind of soul.

Revgen nodded. Although he noticed that a lot of reincarnated souls had been born the last year in Imperial City, they didn't even reach the half of those born there in that time.

"Well, after some time, you should be able to use the Death Law to confirm it even before the child's birth. Now, let's go to the outside. Traveling towards the Zuatania Republic by normal means is too long for my schedule. Thus, I will try to do it in another way to reach it in the shortest time."

Chapter 309: Returning to Trade City

Yale and Revgen teleported to a big room where Nurvey and all the others were already waiting. Although all of them attended the celebration for the first anniversary of the end of the war, they left just after the speeches ended and reached the room while Yale and Revgen were speaking with Birgh's group.

"It is great that you all are already here."

Yale wasn't sure if his method would work or not, so he wanted to try it quickly. In case of failure, he would need to rush with all his strength to exit the continent by the Zuatania Republic's side if he needed to travel normally, and Yale wasn't sure if he would manage to do it in time even in that case. As for the possibility of crossing the ocean on the Revgen Empire's side, it was completely discarded because that would be just a suicide trip.

"Oh right. Durgan and Birgh will marry soon, and all of you will miss the wedding. Do you want to leave some letters or presents for them? Birgh is even pregnant, so something for the child is also good. Especially from you Lar, after this you will be an AUNT."

Revgen put special emphasis in his last word which made that Lar wielded her sword and attacked Revgen with all her might. Of course, with her current level, she couldn't even scratch Revgen's skin.

"Old bastard, I will chop you to the death!"

Yale didn't know what to say at that moment; he didn't expect that Revgen would try to anger Lar at that moment.

In fact, the first time both meet after Lar's reincarnation, when Yale was still in a slumber, Revgen laughed at Lar's childish looks, and Lar used Revgen's old age a weapon to insult him, so both were just continuing their attacks against each other after that moment.

"Of course, you will be an AUNT, but you will still look like a child. I am sure that even the child of your brother would look more mature than you the first time you two meet."

Yale was getting tired of that, Lar was far too short-tempered, and Revgen had been bored for too many thousands of years making that he used any occasion to amuse himself when he was with people he knew well like Yale and Lar. In fact, Revgen didn't mind at all that Lar pointed his old age; he only feigned that he was affected because he found funny the situation, and Revgen's worst enemy at that moment was boredom.

"Lar, stop. Your attacks didn't have any effect, and we have no time to waste. Everyone, if you want to do as Revgen has just said, and you all want to leave something for them, do it now. We are going to leave, and you all need to enter into my private dimension for now."

Lar stopped her attacks after hearing Yale's words, but she swore in her heart that after recovering more strength she would beat Revgen to make him pay for that. Meanwhile, Revgen was sad because the enjoyable time ended.

Even though not everyone knew Birgh, everyone had met Durgan before, so everyone left at least a letter to congratulate the marriage, but some of them also left some small gifts. Then, Revgen put everything in his storage artifact to give it to Durgan and Birgh later.

"Good travel you all. I hope that everyone manages to come back alive."

Revgen didn't have too many expectations about the fact that everyone managed to return alive, but he hoped that Yale would be able to protect them.

"Everyone, don't resist."

After saying that, Yale put everyone in his Storage Space, except Revgen and Wyba.

"Oh, I forgot to tell them about the wolves, but well I doubt that there would be any problem."

After saying that, Yale though about it a while better and decided to play safe.

"Wyba enter there in case of something happens with those wolfs, they are your subordinates."

Then, Yale also sent Wyba to the Storage Space.

"Now, will you explain to me about that method of yours to travel quickly towards the other extreme of the continent?"

Yale smiled while showing a token to Revgen.

"I will just break this."

At that moment, Yale crushed the token, and a second later, a portal had appeared in front of him.

"I was already thinking that you will never use that token, what is the problem you need to face for requiring my help."

Tar appeared from the portal while speaking, but he was frightened to death when he sensed Revgen's aura.

"This is too much for me."

He thought that about Revgen but then, he noticed that Revgen didn't seem to be hostile towards Yale, so he sighed in relief.

Of course, Yale had just broken the token Tar gave to him as a trump card, since it can only be used in their continent, it was better to use it at that moment as it would be useless after leaving the continent. After all, Yale believed that he couldn't be weaker than Tar the day he would return to the continent.

"I just need to go to Trade City as fast as possible, so I decided to summon you and use the portal."

Tar was already guessing something like that since there wasn't anyone who seemed an enemy nearby.

"I am not against that, but the distance of teleportation is too high, and you are already at the Elder Rank, I don't know if the portal will support teleporting both of us."

For such unstable portals, the level of the person crossing it also mattered a lot, and Yale's power increased a lot since the last time Tar saw him.

"No worry about that, don't resist and enter into my hidden dimension. I will cross the portal and let you out after that."

Yale's biggest worry was that the portal generated by the token could only be crossed by Tar no matter the situation, but the current situation wasn't problematic for him since he had the Storage Space.

The portal would only last some minutes, so Yale didn't plan to waste any time.

"It is a pleasure to meet senior Revgen; I hope to have more time to speak the next time we meet."

Tar bowed respectfully to Revgen before entering the Storage Space. Revgen was someone with a status comparable to Zuatania, so Tar held a lot of respect for Revgen despite the fact that Revgen wasn't related to him.

"That should be Zuatania's youngest disciple. I meet him once, Zuatania had a good eye when chose him as a disciple."

Revgen spoke to himself before speaking to Yale.

"Have a safe trip. Be careful outside the continent. I will be waiting for you and the others to return. Good luck."

Revgen felt quite lonely since Lar, Yale, and Ange, three people who had past lives that met him in the past were leaving. Moreover, even his favorite granddaughter was also leaving, so the feeling of loneliness was even higher.

"Goodbye, my oldest friend. We will meet again in the future."

Saying those words Yale crossed the portal disappearing from the Revgen Empire and reappearing in Tar's office in Trade City.

"I am finally back here. It has been a long time."

Yale recognized Tar's office while the portal behind him closed.

After that, Yale let Tar leave the Storage Space.

"Sorry for the problems."

Tar shook his head while hearing Yale.

"No problem at all. However, if you let me ask, why have you come back and have so many people in that dimension of yours?"

Tar managed to see the others inside the Storage Space, but since he was sent out quite quickly, he didn't have a chance to speak with them.

"I need to leave the continent, and they chose to follow me. Speaking about leaving the continent, I was hoping that the Zuatania Merchant's Association would lend me that ship made to cross the ocean."

Yale hadn't forgotten about the ship he saw years ago, it was originally made to travel across the ocean, but it had never been used to that purpose yet.

"Of course, I lend it to you, or that is what I would like to say, but it is impossible to lend it to you because it has been sold."

Tar found the situation quite weird at that moment.

"Sold?"

Yale was wondering who was so bored and had so much money to buy a ship like that. After all, traveling to another continent wasn't a joke, so he thought that some wealthy collector bought it.

"Yes, it was sold less than a year ago. However, don't worry. Although it has been sold, you shouldn't have any problem if you want to use it."

Yale looked Tar with a strange face as he didn't understand about what Tar was speaking about.

"I mean, the ship was bought by the Thousand Frost Wolves Company, your company, so technically that ship is partially yours. You see, how will I lend to you something you had already bought? If had known that you needed it, I would have just lent it to you instead of winning money in the process."

Tar didn't know if it was just a huge coincidence or was the result of some kind of plan, but anyway, since it was already sold, even if he spent time thinking about it, the reality wouldn't change.

Chapter 310: Thousand Frost Wolves Company

Yale didn't know anything about the current state of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company, but he knew that buying that ship shouldn't have been cheap.

Moreover, Yale liked the fact the company bought the ship because he would rather travel in a ship owned by himself than in a lent ship. After all, if a lent ship were to get damaged, he would feel bad for Tar, but he never hoped that the Zuatania Merchant Association was willing to sell that ship.

As for the losses of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company, if the ship got damaged, Yale didn't care at all. He still didn't forgive them for selling those plushies of himself without authorization.

"That is also good, I am going to see them. Are the company still situated in the same place?"

Tar shook his head after hearing Yale's question.

"They ordered to construct a new building, but it is easy to detect, it is the tallest building of the Trade City."

Tar was still in awe of how much the Thousand Frost Wolves Company improved in the last years. At that point, even the Zuatania Merchant's Association didn't have any authority on them. Tar had never seen someone so good in business since his master.

"Oh, it seems that those two are doing it better than I expected."

That was the only part that Yale said in a loud voice, but he continued inside his mind.

"It is clear that they turned very rich selling those plushies. My shame turned into money for them, I need to teach those two a lesson before departing."

Then, Yale bid farewell to Tar and left the building. Yale didn't even need two seconds to know where the building constructed by the Thousand Frost Wolves Association was situated, it was impossible to fail to see it.

Moreover, it was possible to read the name of the company put in the building even since Yale's position, they were advertising the company in a very huge way, literally.

Moreover, in each of the sides of the building, there was a huge picture, the one in front of Yale was a Wyba's picture with enough size to being clearly seen even from outside the city.

Yale could only see that face of the building and a bit of another one, which seemed to depict a person and a wolf, which made Yale have a bad premonition.

After nearing the building, he confirmed that the other picture was of him with Wyba in the head, like in the plushie bought by Nurvey.

"I need to increase the beating by a fold."

Yale didn't know what was in the other two faces of the building, but he chose to not investigate it, or he would maybe end killing those two while beating them.

Yale continued advancing until entering the building, he let Wyba remain in the Storage Space for fear of people jumping at him at first sight. However, Yale himself was already well-known enough, so even without Wyba, he was recognized.

"The Silent Healer!"

"If the Silent Healer is here, Wyba should be near!"

"Where is Wyba? I need to hug the real one!"

"Fool, it is better to hug the Silent Healer and Wyba at the same time."

"You two are not aiming high enough. Silent healer, do you need a girlfriend? If you don't need it, I can also be your maid!"

"Shameless! But if you are interested, I am also willing to be your girlfriend or your maid!"

Those shouts only intensified as the seconds passed and there was already uncountable woman rushing towards him without control. None of those women were strong enough to harm Yale even if all of them clashed against him at the same time, but Yale feared to hurt them, so he teleported to the next floor.

That kind of blind and rash teleportation was dangerous, but fortunately, Yale had the system's aid and the luck that the next floor didn't have too many things on the area he appeared.

"I was popular before, but this had reached another level despite not being here."

The lower floors were for customers, the one in which Yale had appeared was a floor reserved for events, making that there wasn't a lot of people there at that moment.

Yale activated Stealth and continued his way to the upper floors where he hoped to find Julie or Oscro.

There was an automatic elevator made with complex formations that should have also need an insane amount of money to make, but Yale only walked through the stairs because he would be discovered and trapped if he used the elevator.

After the fiftieth floor, the customers couldn't enter as that area was for storage and offices. There was some security on the fiftieth floor, but Yale's Stealth worked perfectly, and even if he was discovered, with his identity there was no way someone would block him. He feared more his fans than the security guards.

Yale continued checking the next floors, but he still didn't find Julie or Oscro. After a while, Yale finally reached the last floor, the hundredth floor.

In that floor, Yale finally sensed the presence of Julie and Oscro. That room was perfectly isolated with formations, so not even Yale was able to sense their presence until he entered into the hundredth floor.

Before going to meet those two, Yale made Wyba leave the Storage Space and put her on his head and stopped to use Stealth.

"You two really made a tall building."

Yale spoke in a loud voice while entering the room where Oscro and Julie were speaking.

Both of them were utterly shocked when they saw Yale, but the reasons for their shock wasn't because he appeared suddenly, but because someone had just told them that Yale would arrive at Trade City soon.

"Yale, you seem well…"

Oscro had difficulties to say those words because he was feeling that something bad was about to happen. Yale saw that Oscro had fattened quite a bit in those years, making him look uglier than before.

"Don't be so scared, I don't bite."

After noticing how scared Oscro was and then also thought.

"However, I will beat you. Maybe you are developing some kind of affinity to the Time Law, or maybe you just developed a good intuition for danger. It should be the latter, Oscro has just reached the 2-star Apprentice Rank, without a bloodline, a master, or a legacy there is no way he had something to do with the Time Law."

With Oscro's talent having reached that level with his age was something that he had accomplished thanks to eating countless resources. As for Julie who had better talent and a legacy, she had reached the 6-star Practitioner Rank in both paths, despite nor training too much.

"Yale, you really surprised me. When we were told that you will come soon, we didn't expect it to be with so much accuracy."

Julie stood up with a smile on his face while seeing Yale instead of fearing him like Oscro. It wasn't that she couldn't predict Yale's anger, but she had her own plans.

"Someone told you that I was coming? That doesn't matter now. I believe that two of you know about what I want to talk."

Yale had a smile as bright as Julie's, but for Oscro, Yale seemed a devil.

"I can explain everything about those plushies, it was for your sake."

Yale didn't know what kind of excuse Julie thought had, but he decided to hear it.

"Most of the money obtained from those plushies was used to kill the members of an Organization called True Empire and to buy that ship for you. We did it to help you."

Julie's words were true but not sincere. It was true that the amount of money expended on those two things was comparable to the net earnings of Yale's plushies, but the plushies were made before they knew anything about the True Empire or that Yale would need that ship in the future.

"Oh, did you already know that I needed a ship? Probably the same person who said that I was coming was the one who told you about that. However, there is something weird in your explanation."

At that moment, Julie decided to play her trump card.

"Indeed, we used some money in something completely wasteful, I tried to stop Oscro, but he insisted. He… tried to sell some plushies of himself, that provoked a lot of loses to the company, the number of sold ones until now is still zero."

Yale looked towards Oscro, who felt sold by Julie. However, Julie's words were also true even if that didn't have any relationship with Yale's plushies. Moreover, as Yale though when he saw his own plushie in Nurvey's room, there were also Julie's plushies on the lower floors, so she didn't discriminate against anyone when making them and were just made for profit.

"Oscro, do you have any explication to waste so much money earned of selling my image without my permission?"

Oscro trembled.

"No… I… it isn't like that… I mean…"

Oscro was unable to complete any sentence, and Yale only widened his smile.

"You need some beating."

Chapter 311: Unexpected Meeting

Yale understood that the story wasn't as simple as Julie explained and that probably she also deserved a beating, but after an hour of beating Oscro, Yale decided to forgive Julie in exchange for the help with the True Empire and the ship.

Thus, only Oscro suffered Yale's wrath, just as Julie planned since the day when she was unable to top stop Oscro's wasteful business of selling his own plushies.

"Well, the matter of the plushies is settled. Since the money used to the ship was made taking profit from me, I suppose that I can use it on my free will, right? I am planning to leave the continent."

Neither of them seemed surprised, although was difficult to see any expression in Oscro's swollen face.

"Of course, feel free to use it."

Julie was about to add something, but Yale interrupted them.

"Well, now we need to speak about that picture of myself on the wall of the building."

Oscro looked at Julie begging with his eyes.

"Please. be merciful, don't make him beat me again."

Julie understood what Oscro wanted to say just seeing his eyes. Fortunately for Oscro, she didn't plan to have him beaten again.

"The paintings of the walls have less than one year, but we didn't do your painting because we wanted. It was the suggestion of the same person who told us that you were coming to Trade City and that you needed a ship."

Yale didn't know if the shameless level of Julie had reached unfathomable heights or the situation was as weird as she made it sound.

At that moment, Yale had some curiosity for the person who had predicted his return to Trade City. At that start, Yale thought that was the same person that had helped him in the shadows before, but that person had never interfered with Yale so directly as asking for have an enormous picture of him on the highest building of Trade City.

"Where is this person. I want to know the person who predicted my travel."

Yale wanted to hear some explanations from that person before deciding what to do. After all, he didn't discard that Julie was lying because she was a merchant and merchants were adept at lying.

"He is residing in our hotel. It is the best of the city and very expensive, but this person paid for the most expensive room and is living there since the day he arrived at Trade City."

Julie knew that the person in question was rich and a big shot for expending money so easily, so she tried to please him and making a huge picture of Yale and Wyba wasn't a big price for obtaining that person's trust.

In fact, she also wanted to do something like that, but she feared too much Yale's wrath, so she didn't dare to do it until that person asked her.

"Lead me to that hotel. Oscro doesn't need to come; it would be bad for the company if others saw him in that state."

Of course, Yale could just heal Oscro in an instant, but he was the one who beat him, he didn't plan to heal him just after the beating.

"Alright. However, you need to know that this person is very powerful and should have a big background, don't be reckless."

Julie feared that Yale would instantly beat the other party before starting to speak and the consequences that doing that would have.

Descending from the building was quite quick since they used an elevated which was for private use of the founders. If Yale had known that elevator before, he wouldn't have needed to hide, since that elevator led to a secret exit.

Since Yale didn't know that, after leaving the highest floor, he ended up sending Wyba again to the Storage Space to avoid her being caught in any trouble if they were detected.

The hotel was quite near to the main building of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company; in five minutes they were there.

Julie had been careful and made secret doors in all the building letting her move without others noticing her presence. After all, she also sold plushies of herself and her picture was also in the building; although she didn't have as many fans as Yale, she still had a lot and mainly males. Sadly, for those males, she didn't have any interest in them because for her they were like mindless pigs.

The floor in which that person was residing was also the highest one, but the hotel only had twenty floors, it couldn't compare with the office of Julie and Oscro.

There was only one room on the twentieth floor because almost all the floor was the room itself.

Julie knocked the door before speaking.

"I am Julie. Just as you said, Yale has reached Trade City, and he wants to meet you."

Some seconds later the door opened, and the person that Yale saw was someone that he would have never expected to find in the Zuatania Republic.

Although that person had changed quite a bit since the last time that he saw him, there was no way that Yale couldn't recognize him.

"Sebe, I never expected that you were the person Julie was speaking of."

Sebe didn't have any beast part since his bloodline was upgraded unless he changed voluntarily to half-beast form, but in a place like Trade City doing that wasn't wise.

"Yale, my friend. I had been waiting for you all his time. Come, enter the room. I can't let my benefactor wait outside."

Julie had already guessed that probably those two knew each other from before, but she didn't expect that they were so close to the point that Sebe considered Yale as his benefactor.

"Just what kind of experiences Yale had after he left Trade City that time…"

Julie wasn't able to imagine anything about Yale's journey since he left until he returned.

Yale and Julie followed Sebe inside the room until they reached an area with some expensive seats and the three of them sat there.

"I am not the only one here. Shirk come, Yale is here. You don't need to hide."

A cloaked person also appeared there, and after seeing that Yale was there, he put off the cloak and showed his reptilian face. Shirk's looks were a huge problem in the Zuatania Republic, but luckily, he was traveling with Sebe. However, he still preferred to hide his looks form others as much as he could.

Julie also knew about Shirk since the day Sebe rented the room, but for Julie, someone like Shirk who had enough background to reside in the most expensive room of the hotel had far more status than any human who couldn't even pay the cheapest one.

"As long as one had money that person is a customer."

Julie worked with that mindset, so the usual discrimination against half-beasts by the citizens of the Zuatania Republic wasn't something that applied to her.

"Shirk, you look well as always, come to sit with us."

Yale was quite happy to have met Sebe and Shirk since he left the Anpaes Kingdom without having a chance to bid farewell.

Shirk was a bit doubtful because his status was far inferior to Sebe and Yale, but he didn't dare to disobey Yale's words.

"Sebe, you can start explaining yourself right now. Why are you here?"

Since the other party was Sebe who treated Yale very well in the past, Yale didn't want to make the things difficult for him and gave him the chance to explain the whole situation.

"I am not too sure either. After I dealt with the people of the True Empire residing in the Anpaes Kingdom, I returned to report everything to my father. At that moment, my father told me that you would appear one year later in the Zuatania Republic with intentions to leave the continent, so he sent me here to meet you."

Sebe's father had met the Mysterious Expert before, and that time it was also the Mysterious Expert who told Paku what his son needed to do.

At that moment, Yale also guessed that probably the same person who had acted as his background in the Anpaes Kingdom was the one who told that to Sebe's father.

"After reaching this place, I heard that a company sold plushies of Wyba and I thought that it was your little sister, so I went there and then I meet Julie and that other guy."

Sebe discovered the truth about Wyba at that time, since both, the wolf and the half-beast were Yale's little sister. It was quite difficult for him to believe that Wyba was a Divine Beast capable of transforming, but since the Divine Beast Bloodline existed, it wasn't impossible for a Divine Beast to be related with Yale.

Of course, Sebe didn't say anything about Yale having a Divine Beast Bloodline nor revealed Wyba's transformation skills.

"At that time, they were thinking about decorating their building, so I proposed to put your image with Wyba in one face of the building. Your company is unstoppable in this country right now. If you turn a bit more popular, with the support of the company you can turn this republic into a kingdom and be the king easily."

Yale sighed after confirming that it was Sebe's fault, but he did it because he wanted to help Yale in obtaining the whole Zuatania Republic.

"The paintings on the other three faces are Wyba, a pack of Frost wolves, and finally me. Oscro was left out, after the failure of his plushies he didn't have the guts even to dare to say anything about it."

Julie spoke at that moment to clarify that because she guessed that Yale didn't inspect all the building.

"I see. Sebe, I don't have any interest in power, you don't need to make that kind of plans."

Yale discarded any idea of beating Sebe because he was stronger than the current Yale, and Sebe didn't do it to obtain any benefit from Yale when he says about putting him on the building's wall.

"Yale, you should have guessed it, but I want to follow you to the other continent."

At that moment, Sebe's face turned serious as he spoke about his true intentions. Paku had only ordered him to meet with Yale, as for what to do afterward, it was Sebe's decision.

After all, the Mysterious Expert only told Paku that Sebe needed to meet with Yale before Yale departed from the continent.

Chapter 312: Buying Trust

Yale had indeed guessed Sebe's intentions and given his power; he didn't have any opposition to that.

After all, Sebe was at the peak of the 9-star Grandmaster Rank, and with his bloodline, it was just a matter of time for him to reach the Sage Rank; that kind of ally was extremely useful for Yale.

Yale didn't bother about if the Anpaes Kingdom would have problems for having the royal prince going with him because the same applied to the Revgen Empire since Nurvey was already on the Storage Space.

"It is alright. Is Shirk also coming?"

Shirk was already at the 8-star Expert Rank, and his power was superior to others in the group like George, so Yale didn't plan to complain, but he wanted Shirk to agree to go by himself and not by obligation or any order.

"He is the one who asked to come with me to follow you in this journey."

Sebe looked at Shirk who seemed to be waiting for Sebe's signal before speaking.

"Indeed. It is just as Prince Sebe said, I want to go to the other continent following Sir Yale. I heard that there are different species on that continent and I hope to find people like me there."

Shirk stopped being a half-beast after Yale modified his bloodline making that his level started to advance quickly and without barriers, but he was already of a different species than everyone else in the continent.

Given the aesthetic standard of humans and half-beasts, Shirk was doomed to be single for his whole life if he didn't leave the continent. Moreover, being of different species, reproduction wouldn't work even if he had the luck to find a girlfriend.

Although some species despite being different can have children with each other, if the lizardmen could do so, they wouldn't have carried experiments to increase their population in the continental war.

Of course, Shirk wasn't sure if there would be lizardmen on the other continent, but he was determined to go and try luck.

"Alright, you can come."

At that moment, Yale counted, and if everyone, himself included, were to enter into the Storage space it would already be almost full, having only three vacant spaces.

"Yale, I…"

Julie started to speak, but Yale interrupted her.

"No. You are just at the Practitioner Rank, and you didn't specialize in battle. You should remain here taking care of the company."

Yale immediately guessed Julie's intentions, but he couldn't think of any valid reason for carrying her in the travel.

"You need me in this travel!"

Yale detected a tinge of anger in Julie's voice, but she seemed to try to retain her composure.

"Why?"

Yale didn't understand Julie's motives for having such confidence.

"You have the ship, but do you know how to use it? That ship may seem like a classic one, which I already doubt you can use, but it has a lot of formations inside to power it up, so it could work even without wind. Are you confident in learning how to use it perfectly in a short time? I know how to use that ship, and I am confident in reaching the other continent with it."

Yale was without words because he didn't even think about that. In fact, he never thought that using the ship would be difficult, but he was clearly underestimating it too much.

"Moreover, once you reach the other continent what will you say to the natives there? Usually, they will think that you are there for invading them if you didn't say a good reason. I am a merchant, and I will act as a merchant and exchange goods with them, officially this can be considered a merchant travel and the problems will diminish a lot. Moreover, we can take this chance to open a filial of the company in that continent."

Yale and the others were without words after hearing Julie because they never thought about the travel like that. In fact, Sebe's impression of Julie improved.

"I see, she wanted to conquer them using business instead of force. Given that we didn't know the power of the other continent this is better than just charge in."

Sebe only thought those words instead of speaking because Yale already said that he wasn't interested. However, Sebe believed that Yale only said that because he still lacked power and the truth was that he wanted to take control of both continents and Sebe was ready to help him.

Without knowing the thoughts on Sebe's head, Yale was pondering about Julie's words. He still had room for three more people in the Storage Space, and although he wanted to have some spare, he could give one to Julie, but then there was another problem.

"I can agree, but I bet that some people in the group would disagree. You should try to convince them before I can agree formally."

Julie was a woman and a beautiful one, so Yale could imagine how would some people inside the Storage Space react after seeing her.

"Oh, probably you have some pretty girls going with you."

Julie didn't fail to notice the meaning of Yale words. Yale didn't think that Julie had any interest on him and that she only wanted to expand her business in the new continent. After all, Julie had never acted like Lar or Aizu before, but he believed that those girls were a bit paranoid and would still disagree to Julie's presence.

Of course, Yale was mistaken because Julie was interested in him. Although she didn't have any kind of crazy love for him, Yale was the only men that provoked her interest. Interest was still far from love, but Julie as a merchant she didn't want to lose anything that she was interested in.

"You guessed right. I will call the ones that I think that can object to your presence and you can try to convince them."

Yale didn't plan to do that by himself because it was too problematic, and Julie was far better in social relationships that Yale.

Yale waved his hand and Nurvey, Lar and Aizu appeared. About Nurvey, Yale didn't think that she would complain about Julie, but given how fan she was of the products of the company, at least she would be happy meeting Julie and could try to convince the other two to let Julie travel with them.

The three girls didn't know why they were called outside and looked to the three unknown people sat with Yale.

"They want to travel with us. The handsome man is the crown prince of the Anpaes Kingdom, Sebe, and the guy beside him is his most loyal personal guard, Shirk. They are also good friends of mine."

The three girls nodded, they didn't mind about the presence of those two.

"This girl is Julie. She is a co-founder of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company together with another guy and me. She knows how to use the ship and will also be in charge of making business on the other continent."

Aizu and Lar looked to Julie with wary eyes, but Nurvey was excited inside because she was a great fan of the products of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company, she even packed them all in her spatial artifact before leaving the Revgen Empire.

"The three girls starting by the left are Nurvey, the princess of the Revgen Empire and she has already been appointed to succeed Revgen in the future. Next to her is Aizu, she is my disciple. Finally, the other girl is Lar; she is a reincarnated expert, so don't look down on her because she looks young."

Sebe was surprised that someone like Nurvey was also following Yale.

"It seems that Yale has far more control over the continent than I thought he had."

Owner of the greatest influence of the Zuatania Republic and having close relationships with the inheritors of the other two countries, for Sebe, Yale was very advanced in his plans to control the whole continent.

Sebe didn't have any interest in power, but after discovering Yale's true identity, he believed that Yale should control the whole world. After all, even if Yale controlled it, he wasn't the type of guy to take advantage of that and wouldn't implicate himself in politics.

Nurvey wanted to speak, but her social skills were too lacking, so she took out some plushies before storing it again. Nurvey continued until she showed them all to show Julie that she had bought all of them.

"Oh, you seem to be a loyal customer."

Julie's impression of Nurvey instantly increased after seeing that she was a great costumer of the company.

However, the faces of the other two girls changed when they saw the plushie based on Yale with Wyba on his head. They had barely considered Nurvey as an opponent since she was Wyba crazy and even after seeing the plushie they deduced that Nurvey only wanted the full collection of Wyba's plushies. However, both of them were jealous because they wanted Yale's plushie too badly.

Julie didn't fail to notice the expressions of Lar and Aizu and smiled.

"Since you two seem interested in our products, I will give you a small gift since we will be traveling together from now on."

Then, Julie took out two plushies of the limited collection based on Yale and gave them to Lar and Aizu. She had kept some of them in her personal storage artifact in case something like that happened. In fact, it was a limited edition to the outside, but the hidden stock was still quite huge. After all, saying that something was limited was just a marketing strategy.

The two girls instantly dispelled any wariness about Julie and looked her as a close friend. After all, they couldn't believe that she would present plushies of the man she wants to her love rivals.

Of course, both underestimated Julie's merchant's soul, she didn't care about something like that, or she wouldn't have sold those plushies from the start.

Julie smiled after she had used those two plushies successfully to buy the trust of Aizu and Lar in an instant while getting rid of her major problems without difficulties.

"Moreover, I also have a new limited edition Wyba plushie that would start to sell next week. It is for you."

Julie finally gave the last product of Wyba's plushie collection to Nurvey, making her extremely happy.

However, Yale didn't look happy and looked towards Julie as if he wanted to give her the same treatment as Oscro for her gifting the plushies to Lar and Aizu, but since he knew that Julie was someone needed for the travel, he restrained himself.

Chapter 313: Yale's Anger

Yale was in quite a bad mood at that moment, so he forced Lar, Aizu, and Nurvey to return to the Storage Space without saying anything else. They could already be thankful that he didn't knock them out to destroy those plushies.

They resisted the sudden teleportation to the Storage Space, which made it a bit more difficult for Yale, but since they were weaker than Yale, they could only delay Yale for some seconds even though they resisted.

Julie, Sebe, and Shirk were surprised by Yale's sudden action, but their intuition told them that it wasn't a good moment to ask about it.

"If you two didn't have any other plan, just enter my dimension for now. Julie, guide me to the ship, I plan to depart today. Since you knew that I was coming, I expect that you already made all the preparations. Call Oscro, I suppose that you already gave instructions to him, but better if you repeat them well, or he may destroy the company before we return."

The three of them nodded quickly and then, Sebe and Shirk entered the Storage Space willingly.

Julie guessed that those plushies were the reason for Yale's anger, so she decided to just follow Yale's orders for the time being. After all, that time was really her fault, although that was the easiest method to obtain the trust of those two girls.

Yale followed Julie to the port while Julie used a token to inform Oscro about the matter. Oscro was a bit angry for the beating, but he knew that Yale wasn't beating him seriously, or else given Yale's power, he wouldn't have ended just with a swollen face.

The port was the same as when Yale went there years ago; it hadn't changed in the slightest.

However, the behavior of the people when they saw Julie and him in the port was completely different as everyone deeply bowed. Most of the people at the port were old people, but they knew very well how powerful the Thousand Frost Wolves Company had turned in the last years.

For a city based on business like Trade City, someone capable of creating such a huge company was worthy of all their respect.

Although most of them didn't know Yale personally, they had seen him in the past when Yale went to the port, or they had heard of him through other people. In any case, since Yale's painting was in the highest building of the city, it was impossible for any of them to fail in recognizing him.

Usually, Yale would have felt awkward in that situation, but at that moment his anger made him disregard everything, which made him seem even more impressive.

There wasn't any restraint to his aura, so everyone noticed that he was at the Elder Rank despite looking so young. Of course, that was because those elders were quite strong themselves, someone at Julie's level wouldn't be able to notice Yale's level and only would sense a huge pressure.

After some minutes walking like that, they reached the ship, but the situation wasn't like they had expected.

"Death to the Thousand Frost Wolves Company!"

"Burn this ship!"

"This ship is for all Trade City; how can a shitty company buy it!"

"All members of the Thousand Frost Company should be turned into half-beasts and enslaved. Their money should belong to everyone!"

Shouts like those were sounding continuous while the people tried to reach the ship that was being protected by some mercenaries contracted after they helped to kill the members of the True Empire. Those mercenaries won so much money that they were absolutely loyal to the company.

"What is this?"

Yale looked towards Julie after seeing the situation in front of the ship.

"This… As we expanded, some companies went to bankrupt in the process because they failed to adapt, it can't be considered our fault. However, they started to manipulate some common folk and implant in them ideas about revolting against us saying that it isn't fair for companies to have money and that everything should belong to everyone. We aren't the only company, but since our influence is the highest, most of the hatred came towards us. Especially after we bought the ship, there were a lot of people complaining, but this is the first time I see a situation like this one."

There was only a low percentage of people joining that quite of criticisms to the companies, and it could be said that everyone was there at the moment, so they weren't a huge problem, but they were dangerous as their activities were so visible and could influence others.

"Death to Zuatania Merchant Association, the Thousand Frost Wolves Company, and all the other companies!"

"We shall be free of the oppressing companies!"

"That is right! We need to destroy everything belonging to them! Find that shitty small wolf of that company and kill it!"

The one who said the last sentence had been the owner of a big company that tried to imitate the Thousand Frost Wolf Company and created an image for his company, but he chose an ugly monkey that sold as much as Oscro's plushies, in other words, nothing. That man invested all his money on that thinking that would be a great success but ended in bankrupt.

"How can a lowly beast become a symbol of our city? Kill that wolf!"

After the first one spoke, more people started to ask to kill Wyba.

Wyba was extremely famous in the whole city to the point that was known by everyone, for some human purists that fact was a disgrace.

"Kill also that Silent Healer! He should be a demon if he is traveling with a shitty beast!"

"That is right, kill both of them!"

The people already weren't thinking in their words; they were repeating everything they heard and letting their hate to expand.

The masterminds hidden between them smiled as their objective to destroy all the companies and then take control of the city by controlling the minds of common people was becoming every day more possible.

"Look, that disgraceful Julie of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company and the demonic Silent Healer are here!"

"That is right! The shitty wolf isn't here, but we need to teach a lesson to those who betrayed humanity by having a good relationship with beats! Kill them!"

"No. We should turn them into beasts!"

Yale's face didn't change after hearing them, but Julie was slightly nervous.

"Stop with those fake words towards our company and stop your violence right now if you knew what is good for all of you."

The guards of the ship didn't know what to do at that moment after hearing Julie's words; they had orders to protect the ship at any cost and not move from there under any circumstance, but if their employers were to be killed in front of them, they would die in shame.

Julie wasn't nervous because she feared the people in front of her. She feared Yale because he was already angry, and those fools kept saying things that would anger him even more.

Yale's expression didn't change meaning that he was still restraining his anger, but that would only make that it would be stronger when it explodes.

Julie didn't want a bloodbath provoked by Yale because she wasn't even sure if he would be able to distinguish between allies and foes in his state and killing people wasn't good publicity for the company.

However, Julie's words only angered more the complaining mass of people.

As Julie had thought, Yale was at the point of exploding of anger since the moment he heard that those bastards wanted to kill Wyba. Yale honestly didn't mind too much about threats to his own life or the future of the company but threatening to harm his family was a red line that no one should cross.

Yale's mind was working to think how those bastards would suffer more to die; it wasn't that he was restraining himself, he was just thinking about how those people should die to suffer more.

While Yale was still thinking, the attacking group of people suddenly stopped, and they started to spoke incomprehensible words.

"I am drowning, help!"

"A lion is coming to attack!"

"An army of Frost Wolves is coming!"

"A volcano!"

"Sharks, a lot of sharks!"

Everyone looked scared as if the death was nearing them by different reasons; they didn't even remember that they were in Trade City complaining about the companies.

Julie and the elders nearby looked to that group with strange faces as they didn't know why everyone had gone mad at the same time. In fact, even the elders hated that kind of people, but as long as they didn't surpass the mercenaries to harm the ship, they didn't plan to interfere.

Yale was letting his imagination run wild about ways to die painfully to those bastards, and the methods he imagined were precisely the ones those people were experiencing in their hallucinations.

"I am being eaten! Help!"

Just after saying those words, the eyes of that man turned lifeless and fell to the ground. Another one made some sounds like if he were trying to speak under the water and then follow the same destiny as the previous man.

One by one, all the members of that group fell dead after hallucinating about their own deaths.

"Congratulations, the Death Law reached a new major threshold after enlightenment. Current understanding 1%."

Chapter 314: Soul Illusion

Julie and the elders looked at the scene dumbfounded; they couldn't believe that everyone turned mad end then died at the same time without any injury.

The elders couldn't explain what they had just seen, but after some seconds Julie turned her gaze towards Yale.

Julie didn't know the method, but she was sure that the strange scene before her eyes had been provoked by Yale. After all, she knew about Yale's secret identity, a reincarnated expert, and the only explanation for such a weird happening was that Yale used some kind of mysterious power to kill all those people without even saying a word.

"Scary."

Julie couldn't avoid thinking that while looking towards Yale because that kind of power was really diabolical, and she couldn't think of any way to defend against such an attack.

Of course, that kind of attacks could only be used on people who were weak and wasn't expecting a mental attack like that, but there was no way that Julie knew that.

Even Yale didn't expect to use such an attack towards that group of people, he was angry and ended up attacking in enlightenment more than by his own will, but he couldn't say that he was unsatisfied with the results.

Moreover, a new Law Skill appeared on the system after the enlightenment ended and he obtained the notification about the increase of his comprehension of the Death Law.

"Soul Illusion: Forces the souls of the targets to sink in a dreamlike illusion making it difficult to distinguish between truth and illusion. Death in the illusion also means the death of their true bodies. This attack can affect multiple targets as long they weren't too far from the user. The targets must be weaker than the user, and they shouldn't be ready to face an attack on the soul. The attack will fail against any reincarnated expert who has a stable soul due to the natural soul strength of reincarnated experts. Can be used controlling the Death Law. Minimum requirement 1% comprehension."

Yale was excited while reading the description of the skill. Although illusions weren't exclusive to the Death Law, the illusions created with that Law were the deadliest.

Moreover, he always wanted to learn a good illusion skill since he knew that he had talent on them thanks to his Illusion Immunity. However, he never found any illusion skill that seemed worthy of learning. After all, the easiest method to dispel an illusion was knowing how it worked, so the truly valuable illusions were treasured, and no one wanted to share with others.

Thus, the quality of illusion skills that Yale had seen until the day in books were all mediocre, and he didn't even bother to try to learn them.

However, Soul Illusion was even better than what he was expecting for an illusion skill, the possibility of turning true the death inside the illusion was something scary.

Of course, the contents of the illusion were decided by Yale; there was no need that the target dies in the illusion. That group died because Yale had in his mind methods for them to die.

However, it was easy killing someone who fell into an illusion, so killing them with the illusion was just cleaner than killing them with his own hands once they fell into the illusion; Yale had already experienced it years ago in the Clan Gathering. If it weren't because he blocked the incoming attack, Ange would have died without anyone capable of preventing it.

Yale knew that using Soul Illusion wouldn't be as easy as it had been when he entered into enlightenment since his comprehension barely reached the minimum, but that skill was also extremely useful to interrogate small fries without killing them with Soul Search.

After all, if someone falls into a Soul Illusion thinking that was in front of his most trusted person, it was just a matter of time that the person exposed all the secrets willingly.

The only bad point is that it wouldn't work with extremely skeptical people who never trust others completely.

While Yale was pondering about his newly acquired Law Skill, the elders in the port were looking at him with dumbfounded faces. They noticed that Julie was looking towards him and that Yale's face didn't reflect any shock, which quickly led them to understand that the one who provoked that scene was the young man that seemed to be at the Elder Rank at first sight.

"Maybe… he isn't at the Elder Rank, but at the Grandmaster Rank or even the Sage Rank."

One of the elders said that in a low voice and other nodded because it wouldn't be difficult for someone at those levels to fake his outer strength to fool others.

Their doubts about Yale's level weren't unfounded because the only reason they could think was that Yale used some kind of Law and it was publicly known that Laws could only be trained after reaching the Grandmaster Rank.

Moreover, none of those elders had a deep understanding of the Laws more than having heard of them because none of them had reached the Grandmaster Rank.

"That kid is a monster."

Another elderly man appeared behind the elders; no one had noticed about his presence until he spoke. That man was a Grandmaster Rank expert sent out by Tar to look after Yale in case he had some problems in Trade City.

That elderly man thought that Tar had Yale in such a high standing because he was one of the owners of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company and he had an astonishing talent in battle.

However, after seeing how Yale dealt with that angry group of people, the elderly man was without words.

That elderly man had luck exploring some ancient ruins and obtained a bit of insight regarding the Death Law before reaching the Grandmaster Rank, so he knew that it was possible with a good stroke of luck.

However, he also knew the limits of the laws in low levels; although it was possible to have some insight, it was impossible to reach any threshold, but the law ripples emanated from Yale indicated that his comprehension of the Death law surpassed that of the elderly man who was near to reach the first threshold of the Death Law.

Therefore, the elderly man was sure that Yale had reached that threshold and thus it was impossible that he was just at the Elder Rank, he was guessing that Yale was at the Sage Rank because reaching the threshold at the Grandmaster Rank was still extremely difficult.

The elderly man planned to help Yale if that group of people really attacked him because those were Tar's orders, but he thought that Tar was exaggerating treating so well a young man like Yale.

However, he finally understood, that Tar wasn't treating him in that way because of his potential but because Yale was someone of his same Rank and it would be bad for the city if he got angry because some fools were disrespectful with him

"If that kid wants, no one in the Zuatania Republic will be able to stop him."

Since the elderly man thought that Yale was at the same Rank that Tar, and since Tar had a high impression of him, even if Yale turned crazy it wasn't likely that Tar wouldn't want to be in bad terms with him, so Yale was someone that no one must offend.

The elders were dumbfounded hearing the elderly man who spoke to himself, but they nodded their heads since they didn't dare to doubt about the words of that elderly man even though he said them without thinking; especially since the scene that they had just seen was shocking enough to prove it.

Of course, what that elderly man didn't know was that thanks to the Last Wish System and the Condensed Death Essence fused with Yale's body, that limitation of the threshold didn't exist for Yale like for other people, he still had some limit, but it wasn't as restricted as others.

There was a cloaked person who saw the scene from the shadows and was utterly shocked.

That person was Oscro who went to the port to follow Julie's orders; the cloak was just to hide his swollen face.

"I was feeling that he beat me so hard while restraining himself a bit, but it seems that just vent his anger casually at that moment."

The fate of those men was struck deeply on Oscro's mind, and he decided to never anger Yale again; a beating was still good but turning crazy and dying as those men died was something that Oscro didn't want to experience.

Yale stepped ahead and created a Water Ball on his hand. There wasn't anything strange in that water, but a second later the originally crystalline water started to acquire a greenish color before Yale tossed it out to the corpses in front of him, provoking that they instantly dissolved.

However, only the organic parts dissolved, Storage Artifacts and metallic accessories remained. After that Yale waved his hand and collected all the remaining objects.

"The user successfully created [Dissolving Poison]"

"The user obtained the Passive Skill [Alchemy Mastery: Apprentice Level 1]."

"The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Alchemy Mastery] to Apprentice Level 2."

"The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Alchemy Mastery] to Apprentice Level 3."

The system notifications continued, and alchemy continued rising up surpassing stages until stopping at the grandmaster stage.

"The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Alchemy Mastery] to Grandmaster Level 1."

Yale didn't expect that he would obtain that much mastery in Alchemy by just synthesizing a poison causally, but it wasn't as simple a Yale thought. He synthesized a poison with a bit of Law infused on it, and that was the condition to advance from the master stage to the grandmaster stage in alchemy.

It was the first time that Yale did some alchemy, but the feat of infusing a law into the poison was enough to let him skip some stages. In fact, it was pretty normal that when a Law Master started practicing something like Alchemy or Forging, they directly reach the sage stage after their first try.

"Alchemy Mastery: Grandmaster Level 1. Increase the chances of successfully synthesizing a poison or medicine of high quality. It is possible to add additional effects and Laws. The skill can be leveled up by practicing alchemy."

Yale smiled, and all his bad mood disappeared; he obtained a lot of benefits in a short time making him forget about everything else that had happened.

Of course, for the others seeing him brightly smiling after his actions made them thought that Yale was far too dangerous and mustn't be offended.

"Oscro, stop hiding and come here."

Yale had noticed about Oscro's presence from the start, but he didn't bother to call him until that moment when his mood turned good.

Oscro didn't dare to disobey, so he walked quickly towards Yale.

"Sorry for being late."

Oscro wasn't late at all, but he preferred to apologize just in case that Yale considered that he was late.

"You probably ran to reach the port as soon as possible, don't try to be overly humble, from now on you need to follow Julie's plans for the company and being overly humble isn't good. I hope that after returning, there won't be anything related to the company that would anger me."

There wasn't any hidden meaning with those words; Yale just didn't want to see the company destroyed or turned into something ridicule after returning. However, for Oscro who had just witnessed the fate of that group of people, that was a clear threat in case he messed up with the company while Yale and Julie were traveling.

"I will manage everything perfectly."

Oscro's face was extremely serious, and he swore in his heart that he would work harder than ever to ensure that nothing went wrong. Oscro liked to enjoy his life since he turned wealthy, making that his working hours diminished a lot, but since that moment, he returned to be the working Oscro.

"I hope that. I will give you a reward in advance; you will be able to be the test of an experiment. Don't worry it won't harm you."

Yale said that smiling and it was true that the experiment posed zero threat to Oscro even if it failed, but Oscro felt that his life was again in danger after seeing Yale's smile.

"There is no need…"

Oscro was unable to finish the sentence.

"You don't need to be so polite."

Yale put his hand in front of Oscro's face and started his experiment. The experiment was with the Life Law, so Oscro didn't feel any pain. At most, he felt a strange sensation in the face when his wounds healed. After noticing that Yale was just healing him, Oscro sighed in relief thinking that Yale was joking about the experiment.

Of course, it wasn't a joke; Yale was trying to infuse the Life Law in Time Healing to improve its effects. Although Time Healing was perfect for treating fresh wounds, it lacked the impressive regeneration and strengthening powers of the Life Law.

Yale didn't want to just revert Oscro's wounds to before he had beat him, he also wanted to improve the body state of Oscro in the process, but that wasn't something Time Healing could do, so the Life Law was needed.

Sadly, the experiment was a complete failure. Yale had hoped that after obtaining comprehension of the Death Law, he should be able to improve the Life Law quickly until the same point, but it wasn't that easy.

Although the experiment failed, Oscro ended losing half kilogram due to the experiment, which was still a lot for most people, but Oscro needed to lose some more to have a body in a good state; in terms of percentage of improving the body, that was extremely minimal for the huge effort Yale put on the experiment.

Moreover, Yale knew that unless he improved his comprehension of the Life Law, improving the body of others would be very difficult. After all, just repeating the experiment more times wouldn't have any more effect, that kind of improving was Yale's limit.

"Thank you, Yale."

Oscro was happy that Yale had healed him; he knew that he wasn't handsome at all, but with that swollen face, he was far worse than usual.

Seeing that Oscro was happy even though the experiment failed, Yale just turned his back toward him and spoke to Julie.

"Give him a good reminder of what to do in the future; I don't know how much time we will be outside the continent."

Yale didn't care too much for the company, but he didn't want that Wyba's image became associated with anything bad, and Oscro had bad impulses from business that could transform the company in a national laughingstock and even go to bankrupt like that man who chose an ugly monkey as the image of his company.

Letting Julie speak with Oscro calmly, Yale went towards the ship making that the faces of those mercenaries changed.

They knew that the Silent Healer was one of their employers, but they had never expected that they would have such a scary employer.

The mercenaries stepped to the side opening the way for Yale while bowing towards him. As mercenaries who valued battle strength a lot, Yale's display was enough to confirm that they did well following the Thousand Frost Wolves Company.

They did jobs for money, but they didn't pledge loyalty to their employers unless those employers obtained their utmost respect. However, they ended pledging loyalty to the Thousand Frost Company due to the extremely good benefits, but they hesitated a lot, and even at that moment they doubted if they had done well.

All their doubts disappeared after meeting Yale, the prowess he displayed was enough to make those mercenaries submit, it was important to say that the leader was at the Grandmaster Rank and there were some at the Elder Rank.

They were true professionals, and their strength wasn't to be underestimated as they could easily beat people at their same rank due to their huge experience in real battles.

If that hadn't been the case, Julie wouldn't have bothered in offering such good conditions to obtain their loyalty.

"You should be Yale, the famous Silent Healer. I am the leader of the group; it is a pleasure to meet you."

The leader spoke while bowing, he didn't understand anything about the Death Law, but he knew that he wouldn't be able to kill that group of people as easily and quickly as Yale.

"Do you want to ask me something?"

Yale was in a good mood, so he didn't mind replying a question or two.

"Yes, I have one. Given your astonishing prowess, why do you need to contact us to deal with the True Empire, those small fries would have been easily killed by you."

In the mercenary leader's eyes, Yale was the true backbone of the company while the others only were good at business, but in that case, there wasn't any need to contract mercenaries expending so much money because Yale himself should have been able to deal with that.

Yale couldn't reply saying that a year ago he was far weaker and that he wouldn't have been able to be as efficient as a mercenary group, so he spoke about something else.

"While you dealt with those small fries, I was at their headquarters in the Revgen Empire dealing with their leaders. Of course, they are all dead."

Yale spoke the truth, but at that moment, he was under the Origin Link's effects, and his power was extremely different than his current power.

The mercenary leader was shocked by that reply, but with that everything made sense, it was normal that Yale didn't have time to deal with a branch when he was dealing with the leaders at the other extreme of the continent.

No one spoke with Yale after that, and Yale finally stepped on the ship while the mercenaries looked at him with worship.

The ship was huge and was reinforced with a lot of formations; Yale believed that it would be impossible for a normal storm to destroy it, but the biggest danger in that travel wasn't the weather.

"I like this ship, and it seems that everyone will be able to live here. Well, everyone except Aiwai because she can't leave."

Yale sighed when thinking about Aiwai, but he couldn't do anything for her at that moment because he was far too weak.

After strolling around the ship for some minutes, Yale noticed that Julie and Oscro ended talking and Oscro was about to leave.

"I forgot to give that to him."

Yale still wanted to give something to Oscro, but he forgot to do it earlier as he was only thinking in the failed experiment, so Yale decided to teleport towards him to catch Oscro before he left; he could have also shouted to him making him stop, but that would have been quite unrefined given his position. Fortunately, there wasn't a big distance, so Yale felt confident.

Oscro shouted in shock when Yale appeared in front of him, but he just added another Yale's frightening capability to the list on his mind and stopped thinking about it.

"Oscro, take this and bind it. This is a token made by Revgen of the Revgen Empire; it is invaluable for you, so don't even think to sell it. After binding it, if you die, the last moments of your life would be sent to me, so I will be able to avenge you later on. You can also break it at any time to send me some seconds of images, but if you did it, I would assume that those images are your dying message because you are already doomed."

Originally, Yale planned to give one to him and another to Julie, but since Julie was going with him, there wasn't any need for that.

Of all the people Yale knew that wasn't going with him, Oscro was the one who was in the worst situation since the strongest person in the Zuatania Republic was Tar, and he would be unable to act against a Law Master. Even someone else at the Sage Rank would be a troublesome opponent for Tar being both at the same Rank, so killing Oscro and fleeing was quite possible.

Of course, the continent was isolated, and the chances of a new Law master or Sage Rank expert attacking were low since usually, those at Tar level were at good terms with each other disregarding their official stances in the countries.

"Julie, let's go to the ship. Start to make the preparations for depart."

Yale planned to make everyone exit at the departure time to let them see Trade City from the ship. As for doing it before, he didn't dare for fear of someone wanting to stroll and encountering some problems with some crazy people.

Although dealing with that kind of people wasn't hard, that would be a delay for Yale's plans, and he didn't want any delay because he didn't know when the system would recognize that he had left the continent. It could be just after departing or after crossing the isolation barrier; in the worst case, it could be after reaching the other continent.

Yale stepped again on the ship, but this time Julie was walking behind him.

"How much time we need to depart?"

Yale knew that the ship didn't need almost any help to move thanks to the formations as long as one could control them, so the moment to sail of was just determined by Julie's speed on activating all.

"About ten minutes because I need to dispel the locking formation that fixed to the port."

Before Julie bought the ship, there weren't any guards to avoid someone from stepping on the ship, but that was because with the formation no one could use it unless Tar told them the method to unlock it. Of course, it was impossible for anyone in the Zuatania Republic breaking a formation made by someone like Tar who was at the Sage Rank and setting formations was one of Tar's main strengths.

There had always been elders in the port looking at the ship, but that was their hobby and not their work. Moreover, stepping on the ship for taking a look it wasn't forbidden, although making small damage to the ship would be equivalent to a death penalty, so very few people dared to take the risk even if the chances of damaging it were almost inexistent.

The ship was resistant and wouldn't be easily damaged, but it wasn't like if damaging it was impossible; for example, with enough fire, the ship would be damaged to the point of needing reparations to sail.

"Start the preparations I will go to call the others."

Saying those words, Yale entered the Storage Space and went to notify everyone that they could already leave since they were about to sail.

Sebe had explained their current situation to the others, so they shock for being already in the other extreme of the continent had already ended when Yale told them to go out.

Of course, there wasn't anyone who knew how Yale managed to travel so quickly, but they didn't plan to bother thinking in unveiling a mystery regarding Yale.

Yale didn't lose time with empty words and left the Storage Space with all the people that could leave.

Except for Sebe and Shirk that had gone previously to see the ship since they had been quite bored while waiting for the day of Yale's arrival to Trade City, the others were shocked after seeing such a big ship.

Moreover, people like Aizu, George, and Zack that had never seen the sea with their own eyes, were lost in their thought when seeing the seemingly infinite mass of water in front of their eyes.

Of course, they were also shocked after seeing the high buildings of Trade City, especially the headquarters of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company because since their position they saw partially, the Frost Wolves painting and partially Yale's painting.

They never expected that Yale was so important in Trade City to have his painting in a building

"Everyone, choose a room to stay, I have already chosen mine."

Yale's room was the room that was designed for the captain of the ship because since he was the one who organized the travel, he thought that he deserved that room. It wasn't because he had read so many books of travels across the seas when he was little and wanted to use the chance to feel like the captain of the ship.

Yale repeated that in his mind, but he couldn't restrain the desire of acting as the captain because that was something he truly wanted to do when he was little before the Last Wish System reacted for the first time.

It was just a childish dream created by the lonely feeling he had every day on the Roanmad Clan in which he spent his days reading books. At that time, he wanted the freedom of the people in those books going to every place they wanted without needing to care about the clan rules or the hate of the other members.

Yale had stopped thinking in those stories after he heard that he had the Last Wish System, and then he focused on turning strong because in the reality that was the only way he could truly be free and without worries about the clan or suffering another painful death.

However, even though he discarded that dream because it wasn't realistic, and the reality wasn't like in those old books, the ship was pretty similar on the outside to the ship he always imagined when he was a little kid, and he felt that it wasn't bad to fulfill that innocent wish of that time.

The others went to choose rooms, but Julie had already picked the second biggest one that was also the closest to Yale's room, but since she was in charge of controlling the formation on the ship, no one could complain about that.

There were other three big rooms, but those weren't meant for a single person because those rooms had three beds; Sebe and Shirk picked one of them, and the second one by Nurvey, Ange and Wyba, although no one asked Wyba about it and she would likely remain most of her time with Yale.

Given the position that they had, no one dared to object even though one of the rooms still had a vacant space, but there was quite a conflict between Aizu and Lar about the third one. Aizu tried to say that she would be in that room with Mercer because Mercer was still a kid and as fellow disciples, it was her duty to help him. However, Lar said the same because time ago Yale entrusted Mercer to her.

Mercer wasn't there as he went alone to explore the ship, but he became the focus of the argument. In the end, since the room was for three and neither planned to concede, they ended deciding that the three would be in that room.

Of course, they didn't want to leave Mercer alone because both felt that Yale entrusted Mercer to them and thought that Yale would get angry if they didn't take good care of him.

Swordmad chose to reside alone in a small room. George and Zack decided to share one of the double rooms, and then, the married couple, Kermu and Serka, also chose a double bedroom for themselves.

As for the two wolves, they choose a beautiful garden on the back of the ship. The wolves were there mainly for detecting enemies, so it was better than they weren't inside the Storage Space.

After everyone chose a room, Julie's voice appeared in all parts of the ship due to the effects of a formation.

"We are about to sail."

Hearing Julie's message, everyone left their rooms because they wanted to see the ship sail and take a last look to Trade City and the continent before departing.

Yale didn't leave the deck since the moment when the others left the Storage Space. He saw that Tar led a group with the most influent people of Trade City to see them off. That was Oscro's work; he rushed with all his strength to spread the news in the short span of ten minutes. Fortunately, Oscro found the elderly man sent by Tar, so with communication through tokens it was possible to organize it quickly.

When all the people on the ship reached the deck, the locking formation disappeared, and the ship started to slowly move.

"Good luck!"

Shouts started to sound from the group of people seeing them sail off.

"We all have put our blood and tears in making that ship. We leave to you the duty of letting the ship fulfill its fate!"

The elder who said that was the same one who taught the basics of forging to Yale years ago. At that time, he couldn't truly believe that Yale would end up being the one who would use that ship to reach the other continent.

"Yale! I know that you are the only one capable of reestablishing the connections between continents. My master always wanted that the relationships between the continents were reestablished one day. I leave that unfulfilled wish to you!"

Tar said those words while thinking about how Zuatania would be happy seeing that Yale was the one who finally took the first step in fulfilling that wish of hers.

"I wonder if that person would also be going."

Tar remembered about the Mysterious Expert who appeared back then when Yale was advancing to the Novice Rank.

"Of course, I am also going."

At that moment Tar had the sensation of having heard the Mysterious Expert's voice, but he wasn't unable to see the Mysterious Expert, so he thought that he imagined it.

"I have been following Yale since even before he was born, the is no way that would I stop now that he is finally leaving the content."

The Mysterious Expert had always been following Yale without him noticing about it. Even that night in the library when Yale activated the Last Wish System for the first time, the Mysterious Expert was also in the library, merged in the shadows while hearing how the young Yale shouted carelessly about starting the tutorial.

While the ship started to separate from the shore with all the people wishing good luck to the people leaving the continent, the Mysterious Expert followed them, hiding in the sky.

Chapter 317: Mercer's Training

Everyone remained in the deck until Trade City and the rest of the continent disappeared on the distance.

Even fishing boats didn't go that far, so they were entering an unknown territory for all them.

Everyone held expectations about the travel, but they didn't plan to remain in the deck forever since at that moment there was only water by all sides and it seemed that it would remain like that for some time.

Yale was lost in his thoughts, so he remained there even when the others left; the only others who remained were Wyba who was on Yale's head and Mercer who was still looking to the ocean with an excited face.

After some minutes, Mercer stopped looking towards the ocean and looked towards his master.

"Master, this is awesome!"

Yale turned his head towards Mercer and smiled.

"Oh, so do you like traveling through the sea?"

Mercer nodded his head quickly.

"I like it a lot! This is my first time in a ship, but I read a lot about them this last year, so I can't believe that I am currently experiencing it myself."

Yale was quite surprised that Mercer had read books that year, but it wasn't like if Mercer had much more options.

Mercer quickly reached the peak of the Mortal Rank, and even his swordsmanship couldn't improve more until reaching the Apprentice Rank, so he ended up spending time reading books and expanding his knowledge because, given his previous status in the clan, he had never been able to access to a huge number of books.

Aizu tried to teach him some magic at that time, but Mercer wasn't too interested in long-distance battles with magic and didn't seem to have too much talent on it either, so even though he learned the basics, he didn't work too much on them.

As for healing, Aizu tried to teach him, but Mercer had no talent in healing magic, so she stopped trying to teach him since healing magic was difficult to learn without enough talent.

Yale started to speak with Mercer and found that Mercer had read some of his favorite books. That made that Yale increased his evaluation of Mercer since it was hard to meet someone with the same literary tastes.

"You truly deserve to be my disciple; you have a great taste in books."

Yale was very pleased with Mercer, but the same applied to Mercer, he was glad about having a master that wasn't only extremely powerful, but also had a great taste to choose books to read.

"Master, do you think that one day I will be able to have my own ship and experience being a captain?"

It wasn't only that they read the same books, even both had the same thoughts about being the captain of a ship when they had read a specific saga of books.

"Of course, you are still too young, but you are my disciple, so I am sure that one day no one will be able to stop you if you wanted to adventure in the seas with your own ship in the future."

Yale knew that Mercer would probably forget about that soon because it wasn't a serious dream, but he spoke sincerely because as long as one was strong enough, something like traveling across the sea wasn't that difficult.

After thinking a bit, Yale continued speaking.

"How about if I teach you Water Magic? In a place filled with water like the ocean, it is a must."

Water was the normal element in which Yale excelled the most since the day he obtained the Frost Wolf Bloodline for the first time, so he thought that it would be good teaching it to Mercer who hadn't trained magic too much.

"Water Magic? I like to learn everything that master wants to teach me, but I learned a bit of magic from big sister Aizu before, and that battle-style didn't seem to suit me…"

Mercer really felt that casting spells didn't suit his personality. He trained both paths, so he had the capability to learn magic, but casting long spells to create a huge attack was something he felt too boring.

"Well, if Aizu taught you, I suppose that you have a very shallow idea of casting magic. Although she trains both paths, she had been always more a pure mage than a warrior. The magic I will teach you isn't focused on that kind of long and tedious spells."

Yale also didn't like spells that needed a lot of time to be cast, and he knew that wasting time in those spells wasn't too useful because controlling the laws it was possible to achieve similar effects without wasting so much time casting it.

Of course, not everyone could train as fast as Yale had trained, so for most of them, those long spells were the only way to use devastating spells in their lives.

"A different kind of magic?"

Mercer couldn't imagine a magic that wasn't classical about reciting a spell that would cast a powerful attack.

Before speaking more, Yale created a Frost Claw on his right hand.

"This is called Combined Skill; it combines magic and Inner Qi obtaining the strong points of both of them. Once you learn Water Magic, you will be able to also learn Combined Skills related to the water element like this one."

Although Frost Claw was a skill obtained from a bloodline, it wasn't impossible for Yale to teach it to others with his current experience using it.

"However, you need to start by controlling well normal water spells. You only need to dominate the basics; there is no need to learn any long spell."

After saying those words, Yale modified the Frost Claw turning it into an Ice Sword.

"You can see that the Water Element in very versatile once you learn to change its state from solid to liquid."

Mercer didn't like magic spells before, but after seeing Yale using combined skills based on the water element, he immediately wanted to learn.

Yale had used his Divine Life Eyes to check Mercer's abilities, and he found that Mercer had a perfect grade talent in the water element. He also had some talent in other elements but at most reached the low grade in them, so Yale didn't plan to make Mercer focus on them because that would be a waste of time.

Of course, Mercer also had a perfect grade talent in swordsmanship due to his bloodline, but Mercer couldn't improve more for the time being without advancing. Moreover, even if Yale were to show a bit of Sword Essence to him, the enlightenment had high chances of making him advance forcefully, which would be against Mercer's desires of growing more before advancing.

Mercer was only eleven, and although his body looked like twelve because he had eaten some natural resources in the year that Yale had been in slumber, Yale could understand that Mercer didn't want to remain with that childish appearance after growing up like happened to Lar.

"Master, I want to learn that, this is too awesome!"

Yale smiled after seeing that Mercer was eager to learn. Yale had neglected Mercer too much in the past because the circumstances weren't suitable for sitting down and teach a disciple, but at that moment he planned to teach him well.

"Very well. Let's start with the Water Ball, it is a very basic spell, but it will act as a foundation for later."

When Mercer heard the name Water Ball something else came to his mind.

"Is that similar to the Fire Ball? Big sister Aizu taught me that one, but it is extremely difficult, I barely managed to create a small Fire Ball after much effort."

Since Aizu excelled in the fire element, she tried to teach Mercer spells of that element, but Mercer's talent in the fire element was at the lowest grade, so Mercer felt it extremely difficult to learn.

"The principles behind are similar. However, you will find the Water Ball much easier to train. You have an incredible talent in the water element, but your talent in the fire element is almost inexistent."

Mercer didn't know about his talents because no one tested them before, but he didn't doubt that Yale could see through him with only a look.

"So, that was the reason."

Mercer muttered that before he started to listen to Yale's teachings.

After fifteen minutes, Mercer had managed to create a small Water Ball.

"Incredible, the size is the double of the Fire Ball I made that time, but I needed more than a month to reach that level."

Although part of Mercer's improvement on speed was that both spells were similar, that quick speed was mostly because of his talent.

"I already told you that you have a great talent in the water element. Let's continue, that size might impress you, but it is still too small."

Mercer nodded and continued training his Water Ball. Before he felt that training magic was far too boring, but after being able to see the improvements in Water Ball quickly, he started to like it.

Yale was very pleased with Mercer's diligence once he started to train and the speed of his training was also very good. Of course, being in the ocean made training the water element easier than on a place without almost any water, but Mercer's improvement was mainly for his talent and hard work rather than just the environmental enhancement.

Chapter 318: Quest's Time Exhaustion

Almost two months passed since the ship departed from Trade City, but the quest about leaving the continent was still uncompleted and the remaining time was just some more hours.

"Am I going to fail?"

Yale felt quite depressed those last days due to that quest.

At the start, he enjoyed the travel and the time he spent teaching Mercer, which felt really that should be teaching a disciple. There was a huge difference with the times he tried to teach Aizu because Yale knew that she had some second intentions towards him and since she looked like a grown-up girl it wasn't the same that teaching Mercer who was just a kid.

Mercer had improved a lot in the use of water element spells in that time, although he was still unable to turn the water into ice at will. However, Yale was very satisfied with Mercer's improvement.

Sadly, the Quest Menu didn't bother about how Yale felt about his disciples since the only condition was leaving the continent.

Yale didn't know the results of failing the quest, but he didn't think that would be anything good.

The ship was already at full speed, and it wasn't possible to increase it more. Furthermore, Yale didn't dare to put the whole ship on the Storage Space and fly at top speed despite that being a bit quicker.

After all, although the travel until that moment hadn't any problem, the ocean wasn't a safe place at all and the formations protecting the ship were far better than Yale's own defense. Although Absolute Protection was the best kind of defense its uses were limited, and it wasn't good against a sneak attack if Yale was unprepared.

"Master doesn't seem to be in a good mood today."

Mercer said that while looking towards the depressed Yale on the deck.

"This has already lasted some days. Maybe I should go to hug him? I am sure that he would be happy about having a beautiful girl comforting him"

Aizu replied while she did the same than Mercer observing Yale from far.

"Big sister, our master would probably feel even worse if he is disturbed right now."

Mercer had turned quite close to Yale since the ship departed, so he understood that Yale didn't want to be disturbed without a good reason and Mercer knew Aizu enough to understand that Aizu just wanted some physical contact with Yale and comforting him was just a cheap excuse.

"If you say so…"

Aizu felt quite depressed after hearing Mercer, but she knew in her heart that Yale wasn't someone who liked to be disturbed without reason.

Yale remained in that position for some more hours, but the system still didn't react.

"Five minutes until the time for the quest will end."

It was impossible for Yale to avoid sighing at that moment because there wasn't anything in the ocean that seemed to be a barrier or something like that.

He had already thought that crossing the barrier mentioned by Revgen was the turning point for the quest, but he didn't see any barrier at all, which he interpreted as that he was still too far from there.

Quickly another four minutes passed, and Yale already assumed that the quest was a failure.

"This would be my first failure in a quest. I hope that the consequences won't be too big."

Yale though that while he assumed the result of the quest since there was nothing that he could do at that moment.

However, at that moment the ship stopped as if there were an invisible wall in front of it.

"Maybe this is…"

Yale stopped thinking as there were only seconds left in the quest, and then he started to use his second level World's Authority to try to open that invisible wall as fast as he could.

Yale noticed that his efforts were working, and the ship slowly advanced as the wall was starting to disappear, but the remaining time was also disappearing.

Twenty seconds.

Ten seconds.

Five seconds.

Yale wasn't looking the countdown, but the system started to spoke the countdown in his mind automatically, which only added more pressure to Yale.

Three seconds.

Two seconds.

One second.

"Quest completed. Rewards: Stats increase. Origin Points increase. Origin Points Recovery Speed increases."

Less than half a second was left when that notification appeared in Yale's head.

"This had been too close… Fortunately, I didn't waste any more time before departing."

After saying those words, Yale's aura soared and increased directly from the 1-star Elder Rank to the 3-star Elder Rank.

The increase in stats and Origin Points was just monstrous given the huge numbers needed to advance at that point.

However, what Yale liked that most, was the increase in the Origin Points Recovery Speed, it has been so low that in case of exhausting all his energy he would have needed too many years to replenish himself.

Although the Origin Point recovery speed was still quite low for his huge amount of Origin Points, at least it increased until recovering ten Origin points per minute which were far better than only one.

Of course, Yale didn't belittle the increase of hundred fifty million in the stats and the Origin Points, but he could achieve that by slowly training while he didn't know how to increase his Origin Point Recovery Speed without the Last Wish System assistance.

In fact, although Yale didn0t know about it, there wasn't any penalization for failing that quest, but not obtaining the increase in the Origin Point Recovery Speed was already a huge penalty.

Yale finally relaxed before checking the Quest menu to look for the next quest.

"Obtain the World Sea Pearl. Time limit: One year."

Yale wanted to curse the system for giving him another quest with a time limit and one with an objective of obtaining an item that Yale had never heard before.

Yale could guess that the World Sea Pearl was in the ocean, but the ocean was enormous, that was an almost impossible quest.

While Yale was cursing his own past life because he firmly believed that his past life was the one who put those quests in the Quest Menu, Mercer and Aizu that were looking towards Yale couldn't believe what had just happened before their eyes.

First, the ship stopped completely and then Yale's face turned serious and the ship started to advance slowly. Then, the ship recovered its normal speed, and Yale's aura surged indicating that he made a breakthrough.

Fortunately, they couldn't feel Yale's level, so they didn't notice that Yale advanced more than one level at the same time.

"Maybe master knew of something blocking our path and was working hard to dispel it, which put him in a bad mood for some days."

Mercer couldn't think in another reason for Yale's mood in the previous days and what he had just saw.

"Probably it is just what you said. Fortunately, I didn't go to disturb him, or he would have been mad at me."

Aizu could only agree to Mercer's guess as there weren't any other reason that she could think at that moment.

"System, can you tell me some more information about that World Sea Pearl?"

Yale hoped that since that quest was put int he system, there should also be some information about it. At least he wanted some hint to start looking for the pearl because blindly searching the whole ocean was impossible and there was the time limit of one year.

"The World Sea Pearl is a treasure protected by the royalty of the Sea Race that currently resides in this world's ocean. The Sea Race came to live to this ocean when their world was destroyed, and the World Sea Pearl is the most valuable treasure they brought from that world. The current location of the World Sea Perl is unknown."

Yale sighed in relief when the system replied to his question, but there was another huge problem since that World Sea Pearl was a treasure belonging to a race from a different world.

"Since I need to obtain it, there should a reason for it and probably just grabbing it and returning it won't work. It seems that if I want to fulfill this quest, facing danger is unavoidable."

After thinking about that, he could only sigh as he would need to play the role of a thief to fulfill that quest. Yale still didn't dare to fail in completing the quest if he could avoid it as he didn't know the consequences.

"Evidently, the previous quest of leaving the continent was for the sake of this new quest about the World Sea pearl. I am sure that later on, I will need this World Sea Pearl, so I must give my all to find it."

Yale understood that there should be some big plan behind those quests even if seemed to lack sense at that moment.

Although Yale was a bit angry with the quests with a time limit, he understood that his past life never did something to harm him and that everything had a reason that he just was unable to understand at that moment.

Three months passed since the ship crossed the barrier isolating the continent.

Since that day, Yale used his Spiritual Sense to scan the water hoping to find some clues, but at most he detected some marine monsters that fortunately were weaker than him, so they didn't try to attack the ship.

Of course, Yale only used the Spiritual Sense passively and didn't spend the three months sat without doing anything.

Due to the fact that a conflict seemed unavoidable, Yale spent time training himself and his disciples.

Aizu wasn't bad at classic water magic, in terms of long spells she was almost the best of the ship, but when it came to turning magic into a Combined Skill, she was far worse than Mercer who was very motivated to imitate Yale's Frost Claw.

Seeing that a kid who she considered like her little brother was better than herself, Aizu was a little frustrated, but also started to train seriously and stopped distracting herself while training due to Yale's presence.

Although both of them had great improvement from the point of view of a normal person, of the two only Mercer could be considered to be learning at an average pace compared with the rest of people in the ship. Of course, all the people in the ship had been considered rare talents, so be average among them was extremely good.

Of course, even those rare talents could only look in awe to Yale's monstrous talent. Advancing two levels in a day was something that the others though as having a good stroke of luck or enlightenment, but his training after that continued at an abnormal speed.

In those three months, Yale's Swordsmanship, Archery, and Martial Arts had reached the ninth level of the grandmaster stage, only a turning point away of the sage stage.

Doing that in three months was already a lot even if he had trained with Swordmad, Aiwai, and Lar, which produced excellent results. However, his improvements weren't limited to that.

Yale also trained like crazy the spells Water Healing, Freeze, and Thunderbolt.

Those three were extremely useful in the midst of the ocean. The environment was perfect to use Water Healing, using Thunderbolt against any marine monster was devastating due to the water of the ocean, and with Freeze, it wasn't difficult for Yale to freeze the upper layer of the ocean making it difficult for anything to emerge until the ice melted or was broken through.

Of course, the weather wasn't extremely cold, so the best method to deal with the ice was just waiting as those monsters wouldn0t die by just that level of cold, but as a delaying technique was perfect in their current situation.

The part of Water Healing was quite normal as Aizu and Serka did the same since the environment was suited for it, but no one knew what to say when Yale started to throw thunderbolts and froze the ocean at the sides of the ship.

However, despite all the other improvements, the greatest one was the last Yale accomplished after training for those three months, which had also been his main objective since his problems fulfilling his previous quest.

The reason was simply that it was a new skill that Yale felt that was vital for him, more exactly a new Law Skill based on the Water Law.

"Water Control: Allows the user to manipulate the water on the nature at will. Water Law. Can be used by controlling the Water Law. The deficiency of control of the law could be substituted with Origin Points. Each second without relying upon any power of the Water Law would require 1000 Origin Points. With the current understanding of the Law, the cost would be 600 Origin Points per second."

Yale really wanted to laugh at the moment he finally created that skill because that was a true cheat despite the cost being higher than his other skills.

While Water Control was active, any water on the nature could be controlled freely by Yale. Thus, in the ocean, his battle prowess was frightening enough that without someone else having better control than himself about the Water Law, the chances being harmed inside the water were almost inexistent since all the water would become his shield as long as the skill was active.

Moreover, activating that skill didn't show any sign on the outside, so it can be active without anyone else noticing about it.

Of course, Yale had yet to reach the first threshold on the Water Law despite having obtained some insight while creating that Law Skill but controlling the water on the nature wasn't difficult compared to control water created by an opponent using a magic spell or a Combined Skill.

"I thought that my progress was very good, but every time I think about master's improvement, I can avoid feeling a bit depressed…"

Almost everyone was on the deck of the ship looking at Yale while he was testing Water Control after creating it.

"Mercer, for your own good, don't try to compare yourself with Yale, he is an exception to common sense. Compared with anyone else on our continent all of us are great talents, but we seem ordinary compared with him."

George was used to Yale being unpredictable, so although he was shocked each time Yale did something unexpected, he didn't try to compare himself to Yale in Yale's strong points because that was meaningless. Instead, he preferred to focus on his own strong points like crafting golems, which was something that Yale hadn't even try unless it was temporary golems made with magic.

Of course, George hoped that Yale would never try it in case that he was also talented in that area because that would be a blow to George that George himself didn't know if he would be able to resist.

"Listen to George. Try to compare yourself with me as we are both Yale's disciples. It isn't wise trying to compare yourself with our master."

Aizu said that patting Mercer's head; Aizu was competitive against Yale when they met for the first time, but at that moment she only admired him, and all traces of competition disappeared because their difference was far too big.

"Although there is someone who never seems to stop challenging Yale."

George said that because some launched and sneak attack towards Yale, an attack that was blocked by a huge wall of water.

"That hurts!"

Lar was the one who attacked, and it was a physical attack, so she clashed directly towards the water wall; it was just water, but the act of clashing against water still hurt.

"Lar, if you want to battle just tell me, I almost turned the water into ice by instinct. Trying to use sneak attacks towards me isn't good."

Yale was always alert in case of someone attacked him since he knew about the existence of marine monsters, so he reacted by instinct each time he felt a sneak attack that almost always was Lar, but with Water Control his defense was even better than before.

"I couldn't resist my urge of testing this new skill of yours. This had been really painful. Continue, I am not defeated by something like that."

Yale smiled after hearing that.

"As you wish."

A lot of water swords were shot towards Law who blocked them with the sword, the swords were only in their liquid state, but they moved at high speeds, so it was perfectly possible for them to pierce through a body.

While Water Control was active, Yale didn't have a limit of Water Swords as long as there was enough water. They were in the midst of the ocean, so Yale could create as many swords as he wanted.

After some minutes defending with all her strength of Yale attacks, Lar fell to the ground exhausted, and Yale stopped attacking.

"Too strong. This new skill of yours is too powerful in our current situation, although I am sure that in a desert it would be useless. As expected of the man I love, creating the best skills for the situation."

Lar had no shame in saying things like that, and everyone was already used to hear her. Moreover, Yale's skill was worthy of praise, and it would be of great help for the security of all the ship.

Yale didn't create that skill without reason, he wanted a skill like that and put all his effort in developing it; he remembered that he hadn't dared to leave the ship previously due to his lack of defense against unexpected sneak attacks. However, with that skill, the water would defend his body automatically, so he didn't need to have that fear if he left the ship for a bit.

The only problem was that with that consumption rate, he couldn't use it indefinitely, but for short expeditions, Yale considered that it was enough.

"Now, I am ready. When I detect any trace of the Sea Race, I can go to meet them without worries."

After thinking that, yale stopped to use Water Control as there wasn't any reason to waste Origin Points at that moment. After all, the consumption was far higher than the recovery rate.

"Are you sure?"

Swordmad looked at Yale with worry in his face. Some days had passed since Yale developed Water Control and at that moment Yale had just expressed his intention of exploring the ocean in front of the others.

Anyone with high power could remain some time without breathing, so diving in the ocean wasn't a big deal, but in case of battle, the resistance without breathing would diminish a lot. Moreover, the battle prowess would usually be far inferior due to the difference of environment.

Of course, that didn't apply to Yale who could breathe under the water, and his battle prowess in that environment was even stronger than outside thanks to Water Control.

However, since he was the only one who could be in such conditions after diving, Yale rejected any help because others would just be a burden.

"I am sure; this is one of the reasons for this travel. You already saw my control over the water; this doesn't have any threat to me."

Almost everyone was shocked when Yale originally told that he wanted to dive into the ocean alone, but they were aware that doing that with that control over water wasn't too dangerous. Thus, Swordmad as Yale's master was the only one who dared to question Yale's decision, but because someone needed to say something; Swordmad knew that Yale wasn't reckless.

"Very well, but will you be able to find this ship afterward?"

The ocean was huge, and even if they stopped the ship, the ship would still move from the original position.

"Maybe, but I don't dare to take the risk, I will put the whole ship in my dimension while I am under the ocean."

Yale had detected someone who seemed to be from the Sea Race or at least it was some intelligent being living under the sea. Thus, he didn't want to waste that chance, but he didn't know if he would be able to return quickly or not and getting separated from the others for such reason wouldn't be good.

"Understood. Anyone have any problem with Yale's decision?"

After Swordsman asked that no one complained about it, after all, Yale was the one who wanted to travel, and the others just wanted to follow him, so it would be too selfish forbidding Yale from moving freely.

"Alright, let's not waste more time."

Yale didn't want to lose the trace he had found, so he quickly put the whole ship inside the Storage Space.

Fortunately, since Yale's understanding of the Water Law increased, he had infused a bit of it on the Storage Space creating a small lake in the area that Liye prepared for Kermu's group to live before the Origin Link ended.

The size of the lake was the same as the size of the ship, to let the ship remain in water even after leaving the ocean; that was something prepared just for that kind of situation.

After Yale was left alone in the sky, he dived into the ocean without losing time and then activated Water Control to ensure his safety.

"This is quite beautiful."

Yale never expected that diving into the ocean would be like that, but his target wasn't sightseeing, so he continued diving towards where that sentient lifeform was detected.

"I wonder how that Sea Race would be."

Yale had read too many books, and he had read about many variants of species living in the sea, but he was sure that most of the writers had never met any and the content wasn't trustful.

Finding that intelligent lifeform under the ocean wasn't easy, Yale wasn't only diving down he was also moving in the same direction as that life form because it seemed to be rushing to somewhere.

Although Yale still didn't know what kind of being, he was following, it was sure that the speed of the other party under the water was quite high despite being far weaker than Yale.

"At this pace, I will need days to catch it…"

Yale was quite depressed for the high speed of the other party. Although that speed was inferior to Yale's speed, there wasn't too much difference making that catching the other party would be difficult.

While he was thinking about that, Yale detected another lifeform that seemed sentient surrounded by some sea monsters.

Under the ocean, the Spiritual Sense didn't work as well as in the outside, so Yale was unable to obtain detailed information of the targets from a long distance.

However, Yale was sure that the one he was following was rushing in the direction of the one that was surrounded.

"I was already feeling strange that someone was rushing so much, so it was for rescue someone else."

At that moment Yale's good impression of that lifeform increased even though he didn't even know how the other party looked. However, for Yale, someone that rush in that way to save others was worthy of respect.

Just as Yale guessed, the one he was following reached the place where the monsters were surrounding the other one, and it seemed to begin a battle with them.

Yale was noticing that with his Spiritual Sense, but he was still far from them; he had already decided that if he reached that place in time, he would help those two in the battle.

After all, those monsters were nothing to him, and he would obtain a good impression from those two if he helped them. Of course, the main reason was that he felt that the one who rushed to help the other deserved some help for his courage.

Yale was nearing the place, and his Spiritual Sense started to detect the Spiritual Sense conversations of those two.

"Big brother, run! You can't beat them. I am already doomed, forget about me and live!"

That voice sounded cute but desperate.

"I would rather die protecting you than live with the guilt of having abandoned you."

The other voice was from a male, but it was quite weak as if it was on the verge of dying.

The battle hadn't lasted too long, but it was clear that there was a difference in power that was unsurpassable by the owner of that male voice.

"Please, run. I don't want my big brother to die for nothing. Once they broke this barrier, I will die, and no one will be able to save me."

The situation was extremely dire when Yale finally saw them through Spiritual Sense as he had neared enough.

He was a little disappointed with their looks as they looked like a classic mermaid and merman, he expected something more interesting especially since when the big brother was battling, he seemed to notice that his shape was different having a more muscular body and feet. However, he could only think that he had seen it wrong or was some kind of special skill.

"Never! You came here to look for a medicine for my illness, how can I let you die here! In any case, if someone needs to die that should be me!"

The merman said that, but his body was bit again by the monsters and that time they eat a big part of his tail making him sink.

"Big brother!"

The small mermaid was worried, but at that moment the barrier broke, and the monsters rushed towards her.

However, those monsters stopped on the spot as their surroundings were covered by ice.

"The whole area was frozen; how can this be…"

The small mermaid was shocked by the situation, but her life had been saved.

"Big brother!"

She stopped thinking about that and swam towards where her big brother had fallen. Then, she started to heal him with Water Healing, which was quite surprising due how young looked that girl.

"Don't waste your energy, you can't heal my wounds, I am already doomed, but I am glad that you are alive."

The big brother didn't seem to regret his actions as long as that little mermaid was safe.

"But, but…"

The small mermaid didn't know what to say, but she knew that her brother was telling the truth and her skills were too lacking.

"I am sorry for hearing your private conversation, but I can heal you."

At that moment, a human man appeared before the two of them. They had never seen a human before but had read about them in books.

"Why a foreigner wants to help us?"

The small mermaid didn't trust the man who appeared in front of them.

"Thank you, sir, for saving my little sister."

The wounded merman said that shocking his little sister; his little sister was too young to think clearly in such situation, but for the merman, it was clear that the only one who could have saved his little sister before was that man in front of them.

"It is as your brother says. My name is Yale, and I am the one who has just saved you. Sorry, I was too late to do it before, but I can heal your big brother."

The little mermaid understood about that after hearing her big brother, but she still distrusted Yale.

"Why did you help us?"

Yale didn't know why that little mermaid had such a great lack of trust but thinking that he was the first human that appeared before that mermaid's eyes, he wasn't angry at all.

"I also have a little sister, and the way your brother rushed to save you obtained my admiration, so I decided to follow him and help."
