142 Bloodline Training (1/2)
”That is hard to transport, do you really have the means to transport it safely?”
Aiwai didn't know how Yale planned to transport the Bloodline Fruit Tree, but she was worried that the tree would die.
If they didn't pick the tree, it didn't matter if it died as it didn't belong to them, but if they picked it, they needed to be careful, or it would be a waste of effort.
”Don't worry, as long as we reach home in less than an hour there wouldn't be any problem.”
They weren't too far from their home as the area covered by the organization wasn't linear, and Yale had planned the way very well.
”Alright, let's try to transport it. If I fly without stopping I should be able to barely reach home in time. If the time is almost over, can you take it out and put it again?”
Aiwai had already guessed that Yale had some special place to put the Bloodline Fruit Tree without killing it.
”I don't know. I never tried to do it; maybe it will work, or maybe the tree will die.”
Yale didn't try to lie; he didn't want to lose such a valuable treasure due to hiding his lack of knowledge in the matter.
”You should test that with common plants later, it is an important factor. You probably used the same method to hide Wyba and me before, right?”
Yale nodded. Even if he denied it, there was no way Aiwai would believe it, and he had decided to trust in her. Yale wouldn't reveal his biggest secrets like the system to her, but the Storage Space was something he didn't mind showing to her as was a good life-saving measure for her and Wyba. Sadly, Yale himself couldn't enter.
Fortunately, Aiwai rushed enough in their way back, and they reached the house with two spare minutes.
Yale put the tree in a somewhat hidden area near the hot spring; it was valuable, so it was better if it was difficult to locate by outsiders. The only reason they had found the tree before was that Yale knew exactly where it was, a random passerby wouldn't have been able to find it easily.
They had lost all the day hunting the organization members, so Yale had been unable to train archery or any other weapon, but given that he had seen Aiwai using her archery, he didn't have the sensation that he had lost his time. Seeing someone as skilled as Aiwai in action was extremely valuable as experience.
Moreover, killing those remnants was necessary to ensure their security; if more groups were to attack them, Yale doubted that all of them would also try to soul-search him and his trump cards were limited.
It was already night after they had returned, Yale went to bath with Aiwai and Wyba without arguing and Aiwai didn't anger him like the previous day either; both of them followed their agreement from the previous day.
Furthermore, both of them felt more attached to each other after all the things happened that day. To Yale, having someone who knew about his past life but also knew about his lack of memories was a relief as he could act more naturally. On the other hand, Yale obtained Aiwai's complete trust after his actions the previous night.
Wyba also felt that the mood was incredibly better than the previous day and she was very happy with that.
After the dinner, Yale started training his Origin Qi again in the bed, the previous day he hadn't been able to train a lot due to the interference of the intruders.
The next morning Aiwai seemed very happy because after all the members of her clan and all the remnants from the organization were dead, that made her worries disappear.
Furthermore, in the night she finally reached the Elder Rank, she was still starless, but for her, having crossed that barrier signified a lot.
”Congratulations on reaching the Elder Rank.”
Yale congratulated Aiwai when she let him off, but she seemed a bit pissed by it.
