Chapter 201: The New Sword Five
“Liye is innocent; it was just an accident. Who asked such weakling to attack Liye? His death was his own fault.”
Although Ralen knew that maybe the Larken Clan would act if soone abused power to break the rules of Sword City, Yale was still a true genius with the sword, so he doubted that he would be punished even if the Larken Clan discovered about his actions. Instead, Ralen believed that in such situation the Larken Clan would try to protect him.
“As expected of the wise governor, Liye is indeed innocent. That coward guy was the only one to bla for his own reckless acts. This piece of trash in the floor had incited him, but she had also received so divine punishnt.”
Ralen and Selenia knew that Lar had so type of relationship with Liye, so they knew that her opinion was completely biased from the start, but she was also soone they didn’t dare to offend due to her incredible talent with the sword.
Usually, the mbers of the Sword Five are talented and thanks to the fa obtained in Sword City, a lot of them managed to marry people of the Larken Clan afterward. However, the talent displayed by Yale and Lar was on a different league.
Unless they were fools like the soul-searched girl, they wouldn’t dare to oppress Yale and Lar with their status in Sword City because they believed that both had high chances of being recruited by the Larken Clan in the future. After all, a talent in swordsmanship enough to surpass those on a higher stage was sothing that even the Larken Clan couldn’t ignore.
They thought that their impression of Yale and Lar was high enough, but the truth was sothing they wouldn’t be able to believe even disregarding the identities of their past lives.
Yale was already engaged into the Larken Clan, but he didn’t plan to marry, and as no one knew where he was, the Larken Clan was offering a huge reward for finding him and deliver him to the Larken Clan. On the other hand, Lar was directly a mber of the Larken Clan who had run from her house.
The Larken Clan extrely valued both of them, but they didn’t want to be found by them. Of course, even if both of them were trying to avoid the Larken Clan, such clan wouldn’t forgive those who hard them, so the fates of those two mbers of the Sword Five were already sealed even if Yale hadn’t acted against them.
“That guy had a bad reputation, and everyone heard him in the Sword Arena. He died by his own recklessness; there is nothing to bla Liye. Moreover, I think that Liye should be the new mber of the Sword Five for the Apprentice Rank position, I believe that no one would be able to beat him in his sa rank.”
Selenia knew that the position would be for Yale in any case due to his shocking swordsmanship, but being the first in suggesting it was a way to improve Yale’s impression of her. She hadn’t shown goodwill from the start like Ralen as she was impartial, nor she had any type of relationship with Yale like Lar, so he wanted to improve her relationship with Yale as she was sure that he would be soone important in the future.
“That is right. Liye should be the new mber of the Sword Five. Moreover, I think that we should replace our mber at the Mortal Rank, she isn’t worthy of her position.”
Ralen was quite young for his rank, but he was still older than the others and understood that there was no way Yale would be happy if that girl remained in the Sword Five after she had threatened Yale’s little sister. Furthermore, he wasn’t even sure if that girl would awaken again soday.
“Just as the governor said, a person with such an evil character isn’t worthy of being a mber of the Sword Five. How about giving that position to Liye’s little sister? She is still five, but she has displayed a shocking talent; I am sure she is worthy of the position.”
Selenia knew that Yale cared about his sister since the threatening words towards her angered him, so she wanted to give Wyba so benefits to make Yale happy.
“That would be good, but Wyba is still too little, which ans that she won’t battle to defend her position. I think she wouldn’t lose her position because she couldn’t fight due to her age, right?”
Yale also noticed that the other two were scared by his performance and were trying to obtain his favor, so he planned to obtain all the profit he could.
“Of course not. She is just a little girl; there is no way we force her to battle until she turns ten. No one will challenge her, so don’t worry.”
The governor thought that it was normal as under ten practicing was impossible, and Wyba would be in a clear disadvantage even with an incredible swordsmanship. Moreover, battling against soone protected by the World Laws was problematic.
Yale’s thoughts were just the opposite because Wyba wasn’t a real human and her restrictions were different; if she were forced to battle, Yale feared that her identity would end up being exposed. Yale didn’t plan to stay in Sword City for an extrely long period of ti, so the ti promised by the governor was more than enough.
“Then, Liye and Wyba are our new mbers. Now, can you two please get out of this room, Liye and I were in a private conversation before you ca.”
Lar had allowed those other mbers of the Sword Five to enter because Yale still needed them, but at that mont they weren’t useful anymore, so she wanted them to leave quickly.
“Right, we shouldn’t disturb more you two.”
Saying those words, Ralen grabbed Selenia’s arm and left the room. As for the unconscious ex-mber of the Sword Five, he would just ask the staff of the inn to deal with her later.
After they left, Lar started laughing.
“As expected of Liye, in such a short span of ti, Sword City is yours. Now, with you, your sister and , we can decide anything in Sword City, even the governor can’t stop us. Moreover, those two are scared of you after you have dealt with this piece of trash.”
Lar stomped her foot into the girl’s unconscious body, and the kicked her a few tis. She had never dared to deal with that girl before due to her lack of support without contacting the Larken Clan, but thanks to Yale, she finally got rid of her.
“Sadly I can’t punish her more than this right now, my current control over souls isn’t high enough. With my previous power, her fate would have been far worse.”
Yale didn’t mind Lar’s acts as he also hated that girl; his only regret was that she died too quickly. Although strictly speaking she was alive, with her current soul she was the sa as dead, and no matter how much Lar kicked her, she wouldn’t be able to feel anything.
“Liye, do you mind if I take care of her? If we leave her in this room, probably the inn would take care of her, and that wouldn’t be fun. She has been so cruel by threatening to your sister, so I thought in giving her a similar destiny. I am sure that even in her current state, with her fa it wouldn’t be difficult.”
Anyone else who heard Lar’s laugh while she was speaking those words would feel that she was a devil, but Yale thought that she was a good girl and his impression of her improved.
Usually, Yale would also hate that type of suggestion, but since that girl had wanted to do that to Wyba, Yale felt that it was normal that they did the sa to her.
In his past life, he had always been like that, he rembered those who offended him or those close to him and paid back everything. However, Liye didn’t just repay with the sa; he liked to increase the punishnt at least hundredfold as interests.
It was due to that behavior that offending Liye was a taboo that no one in their world dared to break because just dying would be a lucky outco after having offended Liye.
“If you plan to sell her, do it into a public auction, everyone should see her and know what happens to arrogant and foolish people like her.”
Yale disliked trouble, but he wasn’t powerful enough to clear all the possible problems by himself. Thus, making an example of that girl would scare a lot of people. After all, anyone who thought about it a bit would guess that who turned that girl into sothing like a vegetable wasn’t Yale himself, but so power hid behind him.
The fake background had been very useful to Yale in the Anpaes Kingdom, so he was planning to create another illusionary background in Sword City.
