115 Crossing the Border (2/2)

The fear of implicating the people related to them made everyone thinking two times before betraying the country for money.

Yale didn't felt pity for that man, his betrayal almost killed all of them, or at least would have forced Yale to waste one of his trump cards if the captain hadn't managed to end with the tiger-faced man.

In fact, the elder in charge of the city had also been punished as the man had obtained the information thanks to having worked for him. The elder would need to work for two years without any salary to compensate for the problems provoked by the already executed man.

The next day Yale said goodbye to everyone and walked towards the mountain range that marked the border between the two countries. The soldiers didn't know why Yale was going to the Anpaes Kingdom, but since they know who was backing him, no one dared to ask.

Fortunately for Yale, the Anpaes Kingdom had almost all their territory from north to south, the area from west to east was shorter than the same area in the Zuatania Republic.

It was still too huge to traverse, but if he had to walk from Trade City to the border, he would need far more time than to cross the whole Anpaes Kingdom.

The bad part was that the Anpaes Kingdom had a lot of irregular terrains, so it will be more difficult to travel than an open terrain. However, Yale hoped that he would be able to sort most of the obstacles relying upon Wind Wings.

Yale had covered his whole body with a cloak, that way it would be more difficult to tell if he was human or half-beast, in the border it would be possible to find both so it was better to avoid problems.

Ordinary humans couldn't detect bloodlines, but some half-beasts were sensitive to them even at long range and almost all at short-range, as long Yale didn't try to block his Frost Winged Wolf bloodline, most half-beasts wouldn't attack him.

Yale usually had the bloodline inactive and only activate it to use Bloodline Force. However, as Wyba was still at the 9-star Mortal Rank, the limit to the Bloodline Force was just the double of that realm's limit.

Yale's usual stats in strength and agility were almost at that number, so Bloodline Force wouldn't be too useful for him until Wyba would increase her realm; thus he hadn't activated the bloodline since before leaving Trade City.

Yale only needed an hour to reach the foot of the nearest mountain where he used Shape Shift to change his covered appearance for a half-beast appearance.

However, as Yale's bloodline was extremely pure, he only made slight changes in his body and not big ones.

He changed his hair color to the same as Wyba's hair and the same with the color of his eyes; those changes were easy as they were only modifying colors.

The other two changes were more difficult, but Yale was already skilled enough with Shape Shift to make them without too many problems.

Those two changes were his human ears for wolf ones and creating a wolf tail at his back; even the purest half-beast would have such traits, so Yale also needed to imitate them to fake well his identity.

Yale had tried that transformation in private a lot of times, but he still felt strange with the ears and the tail.

However, Wyba liked a lot the appearance Yale had after the transformation and liked to play with Yale's ears when she was at the top of his head.

Yale was happy that Wyba liked that appearance, but he felt too weird when Wyba was playing with his wolf's ears, that only made more difficult to him being used to that form.

Finally, Yale used Wind Wings and flew towards the mountain, flying was quicker than climbing it after all.

Wind Wings also were also modified based on the wings Wyba created to fly. At that moment Yale's Wind Wings seemed to have physical form although it was only an illusion as he hadn't used Shape Shift to create them because it will be problematic having real wings with his current clothes.

That day Yale left the Zuatania Republic and crossed the border entering into the Anpaes Kingdom.
