Chapter 270: Ange’s Awakening
After Yale had finished checking his new Special Innate Talent, he verified that his new Main Quest had the same sub-quest as always when he started a new Main Quest after increasing in Rank.
“Master the use of Spiritual Sense (Rank 4). Reward: Condensed Life Essence.”
That time the sub-quest didn’t hide the reward like previous times, so Yale was able to know how to obtain the last Condensed Essence that matched one of the legacy bloodlines.
However, the Condensed Time Essence and the Condensed Space Essence were in the Storage Space, and Yale couldn’t retrieve them.
Even though the stability of the Storage Space increased as Yale completed the corresponding skill quest, he couldn’t retrieve the Condensed Essences that were supporting the Storage Space without risk of making space crumble and that was a risk that Yale didn’t plan to take.
After fulfilling the Skill Quest, the Storage Space was already of ten thousand square kilometers and allowed inside upon to ten beings with a soul, but it was far from being stable.
Of course, Yale also obtained a new Skill Quest after finishing the previous one, that Skill Quest seemed as recurrent as the first sub-quest, but for Yale the rewards of that skill quest were important.
“System special function improvement: Storage. Complete the fifth Main Chain Quest. Reward: The system will increase tenfold the size of [Storage Space]. The number of living beings with a soul that could live inside the space will increase to twenty.”
The Storage Space wouldn’t increase a hundredfold like before, but the current size was already very big, so a tenfold was still a lot. However, the most important part was the number of people that could be brought inside, that number would double and with twenty people he thought that in an emergency he could at least save the people important to him without fearing that the limit would be broken and the Storage Space crumbled.
Finally, Yale had obtained a new Passive Skill due to the sudden increase of his Innate Talents.
“Poison Immunity: Due to possessing a Divine grade affinity to the poison, it is impossible for any poison to provoke any harmful effect on the user.”
That Passive Skill was extremely useful as poisons were too fearful. Yale never worried too much about them due to having Auto-regeneration, but if a poison killed him instantly, there wouldn’t be any time for Auto-regeneration to help him. However, with Poison Immunity he didn’t need to fear any poison.
Yale didn’t know if some of the effects of his skills related to the improved Innate Talents would have changed in some way, but the system didn’t show any change, so he stopped bothering about it.
After having finished verifying all the changes in his body after the breakthrough, Yale went towards Ange and carried her like if she was a princess. The reason was that after exiting the Storage space she wouldn’t appear lying on the floor, but some centimeters above it and she would fall to the floor due to being unconscious, so someone needed to grab her to avoid it. There was no way Yale let Ange be injured in the slightest for something he could easily avoid.
Of course, Yale was the best for the job because Ange was his big sister and Ange’s past life was the daughter of Yale’s past life, so even if carrying Ange like that was something too intimate, there wasn’t any problem if Yale was the one doing it.
However, Yale never expected Ange’s unconscious reaction to put her hands around Yale neck hugging him.
“Father…”
Ange was still unconscious, and at that moment she was dreaming about her past life due to the damage to the seal. Thus, after she unconsciously noticed Yale’s aura, she reacted like that because that was something normal to her. After all, she had been just a kid when Liye disappeared, so it wasn’t strange that she used to hug her father.
Of course, Liye had never rejected her hugs. In fact, she was his favorite daughter because he noticed that she had also talent in the Life Law and the Death Law despite she had inherited only the Time Bloodline and thus the Talent to the Time Law.
Before going to reincarnate, he had transmitted a lot of information about practicing to his daughter as a method to help her. Liye wasn’t someone who showed love to others, but he valued talent a lot, so he took very good care of Ange’s past life despite his indifferent character towards his other children.
Liye’s standards were far too high, even if the other children were all extremely talented geniuses, in Liye’s eyes they were just average but enough to pass down his bloodlines; he never had any other expectation to them.
Ange’s past life was different, Liye really thought in teaching her well after seeing her latent talent, but Liye didn’t have too much time due to the state of his soul, so he passed knowledge to her hoping to help her.
Unfortunately for Liye, his daughter had been too kindhearted despite being talented and ended sacrificing herself. It wasn’t bad being kind to others but being excessively kindhearted would only bring harm to oneself.
Of course, Yale didn’t know anything about that because Revgen hadn’t explained it to him yet, but that didn’t change that he valued Ange a lot; even disregarding their past lives, just how Ange took care of him in his weakest moment was enough for Yale.
Yale’s reaction to that hug was just letting out a sigh. He had conflicted emotions with Ange recovering her memories because he wanted her to remain the same and knew who she had been in her previous life at the same time.
Yale was just worried about the inner conflicts Ange could have with herself due to that; Yale would care about her with or without memories.
Although Ange was a beauty and any man would have gone crazy in Yale’s situation, Yale had an impressive training with Aiwai, and after such training, the physical contact of a female couldn’t alter him easily, at least just a hug wouldn’t affect him. Moreover, Ange and Yale had been family in both lives, so Yale couldn’t even think of her as the opposite sex.
Revgen, Yale and Ange disappeared of the Storage Space just after that; they were indeed feeling bad for Nurvey who was waiting outside. However, before Yale’s breakthrough the limit of the Storage Space was still five, so with Revgen and him, it was already full and couldn’t bring Nurvey with them.
Nurvey was happy when she saw Revgen and Yale reappearing despite not showing it on her face, but her mood turned bad when he saw Ange being carried by Yale in such intimate way.
Cough
Revgen coughed before speaking; he didn’t want any misunderstood happened between Yale and Nurvey. Even if Nurvey didn’t show anything on the outside, Revgen was fully capable of seeing through her cold face and deduce how she was feeling.
“That girl is Ange, Yale’s big sister. Moreover, Ange’s previous life was the daughter of Yale’s past life, so both of them are just close family, there is nothing strange in their relationship.”
Shock appeared in Nurvey’s cold face; she had difficulties to imagine such a weird family relationship across two lives.
Yale didn’t care about Nurvey’s expression and just put Ange on Nurvey’s bed without asking for permission. However, Nurvey didn’t bother due to that because it was normal to place an unconscious girl in a nearby bad instead that on the floor.
Usually, even in that situation, one would ask for permission just for being polite, but Yale and Nurvey disliked wasting words, so they didn’t have any problem skipping that useless politeness. After all, Yale would place Ange in the bed even if Nurvey refused, so he felt that there was no need to waste time with unnecessary words.
The same applied to Nurvey since she felt that it was just normal placing Ange on her bed, so Yale didn’t have any need to ask permission for doing it.
The three of them spoke for about two hours while Ange rested on the bed; the main reason for Ange remaining asleep was the flow of memories appearing on her mind due to the damage to the seal.
In those two hours, the Yale, Revgen, and Nurvey discussed about the True Empire, and Revgen didn’t forget to send private Spiritual Sense messages to Yale to tell him some confidential information, including things about the relation between Liye and Ange’s past life.
For Revgen it was easy spoke two topics at the same time without losing concentration with his level, and Yale was also capable of doing it because that was too similar to ask something to the system while speaking with others, it was doing two different things at the same time splitting the thoughts in two.
However, after those two hours, Ange awakened without any of them noticing it, and she jumped towards Yale.
“Yale… Father, I missed you a lot!”
Yale and Ange were both in the ground due to Ange had suddenly jumping towards Yale. Ange had her face in Yale’s chest and had tears of joy in her eyes.
She recovered a lot of memories, and those memories included all of those related to her father; she had waited a lot of time to meet him again, so she was extremely happy at that moment.
