Chapter 277: Departure Towards the Kurk Clan
Yale left Nurvey’s bedroom with Ange and teleported to the place where Revgen indicated that Yale’s private room in the Imperial Palace was situated.
The room that Yale had in the Imperial Palace was big enough to be called a house itself; it was completely independent of the rest of the Imperial Palace, and it was possible to live inside for years without needing to exit.
Revgen considered his friend’s personality when he constructed it time ago, and Liye hated that others disrupted him, so the only possibility Revgen thought was creating that kind of room.
Yale’s personality wasn’t exactly like in his past life, but he still liked that room with the exception of the dust that was everywhere as an effect of no one entering in thousands of years. If it hadn’t because there was a lot of formations protecting the room, in the big span of time that the room was empty without anyone taking care of it, the room would have just turned into some ancient ruins.
Fortunately, Ange knew some magic spells without any element, so in a few seconds, the room was cleaned without any effort and looked like new. The spell used by Ange was an easy one, and Nurvey used the same to clean her own room, but Yale had never bothered in learning that type of spells.
“Your room in the Imperial Palace is very huge!”
Ange was really impressed by the size of that so-called room, and Yale was also quite shocked despite already expecting something big.
There were a lot of rooms inside Yale’s room, so it was a bit weird just calling it a room; the total area that the so-called room covered was higher than the area of the mansion where Yale lived in Anpaes City, and that was currently inside the Storage Space.
“This seems to be the main bedroom, but there are some other bedrooms near.”
Yale was about to ask Ange if she wanted to pick any of the bedrooms, but she didn’t give such a chance to Yale.
“The main bedroom is huge; there wouldn’t be any problem if we both sleep there.”
Ange still insisted in being in the same bedroom a Yale despite having more options, which made Yale helpless.
All the other bedrooms were still isolated from the outside, so Ange would be safe in any of them, originally Yale was worried by her, and since he was used to the situation, he just accepted that both would sleep together because that would be a good method to ensure that nothing bad happened to Ange. After all, although there weren’t traitors in the Imperial Palace, there were a lot of fools.
However, since there were separate bedrooms in the safest area of the Imperial Palace, Yale felt that there was no reason for both of them sleeping in the same room, but seeing how Ange was expecting it, Yale was unable to say no to her.
Ange rushed to the bed, and after a few seconds, she fell asleep on it. She had been extremely tired, so she slept very quickly.
Even though Yale didn’t go to choose another room to avoid making Ange sad, he didn’t approach to the bed. In fact, Yale had never intended to truly sleep that night; he wanted to train his Spiritual Sense.
That was usual in him, even though he had slept with Aiwai before, he always used that time to train.
After all, he felt that sleeping was wasting time since he could avoid it without repercussions, and he thought that obtaining the Condensed Life Essence seemed far more important than sleeping that night.
Yale planned to spend all the night training, and he wouldn’t even touch the bed for the whole night.
The next level of Spiritual Sense wasn’t that hard to master for Yale, and he managed to accomplish it two hours before the rise of the sun. Usually mastering it would have needed some months or even years for a genius, but Yale’s soul was a reincarnated one, so he couldn’t be compared with an ordinary genius.
Of course, after Yale obtained the Condensed Life Essence from the sub-quest, a new sub-quest appeared.
“Obtain the Space Bloodline. Reward: Law Skill”
The sub-quest wasn’t anything special, and Yale was already expecting a sub-quest like that since that was the only legacy bloodline that he was lacking. Moreover, he would go to the Kurk Clan to clean it from traitors soon, so it wouldn’t be difficult to obtain the Space Bloodline.
As for those two hours left, Yale entered into the Storage Space and practiced a bit with the sword in an empty area, reaching the ninth level of the master stage in swordsmanship, needing only one more step to reach the grandmaster stage.
Yale’s swordsmanship was far stronger than it should be due to the insights he had obtained from the Condensed Sword Essence, so he only needed to practice a bit to reach that level. In fact, he only lacked the knowledge about what was the turning point to reach the grandmaster stage, and that was the reason that blocked his advance to that stage.
The next morning, Ange waked up and stared at Yale.
“You didn’t sleep with me at all!”
Ange had been sleeping, but she noticed that no one was with her the whole night. Moreover, when she awakened, Yale was just sat in a chair thinking about the war against the True Empire.
“I always spend the nights training; I have no time to waste sleeping.”
Yale didn’t plan to hide it since Ange had discovered the truth. After all, it wasn’t that he went to sleep in another place to cheat her, he didn’t sleep at all.
“You can just sleep while hugging me like in our previous life; you didn’t sleep at all at that time, but you hugged me all the night when I asked for it.”
Liye had indeed cared a lot for Ange’s past due to her talent, and doing that didn’t affect him in the slightest, so he never rejected Ange’s past life’s request as long they were just at the level of hugging her.
Yale didn’t remember anything about that, but those memories were precious for Ange. Of course, even without remembering it, Yale could say a good reason to justify himself.
“You were just a kid at that time. Now you are already a grown woman; it doesn’t matter if you are my daughter or my big sister, it would be strange if I were to hug you the whole night.”
When Aiwai hugged Yale, the latter was in a kid form, and when Yale had slept together with Wyba and Lar, both girls looked like kids, so it was just taking care of two younger sisters. However, Ange was already a pretty woman, even if they were family, Yale didn’t feel that it was right acting like if Ange was a kid and hug her while she slept.
“That isn’t fair; it is impossible to freely control the body age freely without becoming a Law God…”
Law Masters stop aging completely, while Law Gods could freely control their age. That was far better than Shape Shift because the changes were real and not only for the outer appearance.
Usually, reincarnated experts that didn’t have all their memories from the start would be like Lar and grieve for looking too childish due to having advanced too quickly, but Ange despite having her memories sealed, she had a lack of resources, so she had already grown up when she advanced to the Novice Rank.
“I can teach you a skill to modify your outer appearance. If you look younger, I may feel it less strange if I were to hug you at night.”
That was the only idea Yale had; it was just the opposite than Lar’s case, so if Ange looked younger Yale felt it would be alright. After all, Ange was his daughter in his past life, so if she looked like a child, he didn’t mind about fulfilling her request. Ange was considered his oldest daughter in his past life and his favorite one, and Ange had also sacrificed a lot for Yale’s sake.
“Really? You are the best!”
Ange hugged Yale after hearing that he could teach her a skill to change her outer appearance. That type of skills was strange and usually only allowed to look older and never younger, so Ange was very happy that Yale would teach her.
“Now, we need to go towards the Kurk Clan; there is no time to lose.”
Yale manipulated the formations again to teleport towards the portal that led to the Kurk Clan where Nurvey was already waiting for him.
“Ready?”
Nurvey only spoke one word, but there wasn’t need for more. Yale nodded to her, and the three of them entered into the portal.
“Kermu, Serka. I wonder how both of you are after six years.”
Yale was expecting to meet again with the two of them after six years. Moreover, he hoped that he would be able to help the both of them to improve their bloodlines, but Yale couldn’t use the Condensed Time Essence and the Condensed Space Essence at that moment because they were inside the Storage Space, so he was wondering how to accomplish that.
