Chapter 230 - Imperial City After Six Years

Chapter 230: Imperial City After Six Years

The next day the group continued their travel to Imperial City, but their faces were all far more serious than before.

Discovering that the Larken Clan had traitors had been a huge blow to everyone, especially because they knew that those three weren’t the only ones and they feared that more people they knew turned to be traitors.

It had been practically confirmed that the factions of those three were all implicated, but there were still chances that more factions were implicated. After all, there wasn’t a member of every faction in their group.

Yale didn’t interact too much with the others while traveling; he didn’t have a good reason to do it, and the others feared Yale too much for daring to speak with him.

After all, the guy who battled against Yale remained unconscious after suddenly aging and no one wanted to suffer the same fate by offending Yale due to say some words to him.

Of course, Yale wasn’t planning to cripple their bloodlines if they decided to speak with him, but he didn’t bother about the fact they didn’t do it. In fact, Yale wasn’t confident in activating the Origin Sword Bloodline again, so those members of the Larken Clan didn’t need to fear Yale that much, but they believed that someone behind Yale used his words to decide who was damaged and who was powered up.

Lar, Herken and Durgan were the only ones who spoke with Yale in that travel. Moreover, Yale was also helping them with the top quality food cooked by Aiwai. Every night, Yale went to the Storage Space to see his sisters and also asked Aiwai for some food to give to those three.

Even at the same level, the strength could differ a lot just by how much the stats were trained, and besides Yale, no one else in the group has them maxed each level before advancing, so they were far from reaching their full potential.

The Sword Bloodline had also boosted their stats a bit, but compared to their increase in level that was still too low; to reach the max they needed to eat natural resources or great quality food.

The only one that was surprised by Yale’s top quality food was Durgan because Herken attributed it to Yale’s background and Lar couldn’t be surprised by something at that level.

Herken thought about asking Yale for some food for the other members, but in the end, he didn’t dare to ask it. He knew that if Yale or his background wanted to give something to the others, the others would have it without any need to ask for it.

They traveled for a month before reaching Imperial City; that speed had been faster than in their way towards Sword City even carrying the unconscious middle-aged man who even after that month, remained unconscious due to the effects of the sudden aging and his mental shock.

At the start, going to Sword City was a training travel, and they didn’t have any hurry to reach it or come back, but after they learned that the Larken Clan had traitors inside, they couldn’t just travel like before and reduced their rest times to reach Imperial City as soon as possible.

Fortunately, there wasn’t any ambush or attack on their way, and they reached Imperial City without any unusual problem.

“After six years, I am again in this place.”

Yale had changed a lot since the first time he was in front of Imperial City; at that time he was weak and didn’t have any knowledge about his past life. However, after entering the special realm and everything that happened after that, he was at the top of the younger generation in power even compared with the Larken Clan, and he had learned a lot of things about his past life although most of it was still a mystery.

He also wanted to return to Nacesai City, but it was too far from the Imperial City, and he didn’t dare to lose so much time on such a dangerous travel. Moreover, Yale didn’t dare to do that travel by himself that long distance due to the current state of the empire.

After all, Yale had limited trump cards to use in case of facing a big danger and given the length of the travel; it was possible that he needed to use them all to survive before managing to reach Nacesai City if he had bad luck.

Moreover, previously when Liye appeared, he left Yale’s body in Sword City instead of Nacesai City that was nearer to the Anpaes Kingdom, so he couldn’t rely on the Origin Link to reach Nacesai City quickly in case of finding an incredible danger.

Using the random teleportation wasn’t an option because he had more chances to appear far away than near his desired destination; if he appeared again in the Zuatania Republic, it would be a disaster and a great loss of time.

The guards bowed when they saw Herken and didn’t question anyone who was in his group. Herken was someone who used to roam outside Imperial City in scout missions, so the guards already knew him and his status as a member of the Larken Clan. Even in the case that he chose to bring unknown people to Imperial City, they will count as guests of the Larken Clan.

After crossing the gate, Yale used his Spiritual Sense.

“Herken, who is that man who was staring us after we crossed the gate.”

Herken didn’t expect that question, but he replied immediately.

“He is the supervisor of the guards. They usually rotate to for the job, and it is a job exclusive to members of the noble clans, there is no way someone else obtained the position unless someone of the Imperial Family gave a good reason and then they would be in charge. Particularly the one who was on the turn of supervising when we crossed the gate is from the Hyeran Clan; he couldn’t be considered of the younger generation with his, but he is already an 8-star Expert being far younger than me. He is a genius of the Hyeran Clan and very valued by them; it is a bit surprising that he is supervising the guards, but this isn’t the first time someone uses that position to increase their fame on the city and make good connections with the guards.”

Herken was somewhat depressed by that, but he knew that after the improvement of his bloodline and Yale’s help he still had some future even when he had already given up in reaching the Elder Rank, which was his dream since he was a kid. Only by reaching the Elder Rank he will obtain the elder position inside the clan and his branch would be able to be independent and wouldn’t need to rely on Lar’s grandfather.

“That man is a traitor.”

Herken didn’t know why Yale was so confident about that, but he had developed an incredible trust to anything Yale said, so even if Yale didn’t give him any proofs, he believed it. However, he couldn’t act towards a genius of another clan in Imperial City.

Moreover, the Hyeran Clan was popularly considered a muscle-head clan filled with people who only believed in the strength of the body; even Yale wasn’t sure from their origins. Yale’s past life friend created the Tofesh Clan, and Liye himself created the other three noble clans corresponding to three of his legacy bloodlines, but the origins of the Hyeran Clan were still a mystery.

Yale’s senses were very keen, and he was looking for anyone who had the soul mark of the True Empire since the day the group left Sword City, so he detected that man easily.

However, besides that one, no one else with the mark appeared before reaching the Larken Clan. Usually, the members of the noble clans weren’t strolling by the same places as the commoners unless they are returning from a trip to the outside like Herken’s group.

“We are in front of the area belonging to our Larken Clan. Yale, treat it as your own house.”

Yale observed that area; it seemed like a city inside a city. In fact, the size was comparable to Nacesai City. The Larken Clan had a lot of members, so that space was something they needed. The same applied to all the noble clans; they are big enough to fill a city each one. In fact, the area of each noble clan was auto-sufficient and didn’t need to go to the outside to anything if the clan didn’t order them to do it.
