174 Yales Suspicions (1/2)

Betrayal. If the eldest prince betrayed the kingdom with all his guards in charge of the security, killing whoever he wants wouldn't be difficult. Moreover, although the king was still far stronger than the eldest prince who had just reached the Rank 9, the king wouldn't be on guard in front of him, so the chances of the king being defeated by and sneak attack or a trap were high.

Yale had no proof for that guess, but it was very difficult that the capital reached the state Yale had seen in the vision without that kind of situation. In any case, there was nothing to lose for tracking Sebe and be aware of any sneak attack towards him; if Yale's guess were wrong, they would have just lost a day.

”Listen, Shirk. It may be difficult to believe, but the eldest prince has enough power to provoke the situation in the prophecy. They were the ones in charge of security, so if they are traitors, killing anyone they wanted would be easy. In order to change the future we can't neglect any option, follow Sebe and protect him from sneak attacks, be especially careful near those guards. I hope I am wrong, but we can't play with Sebe's life due to thinking it is impossible.”

Suspecting of someone from the royal family to be a traitor without solid proofs was a great sin, but Shirk had to admit that the eldest prince could turn that prophecy true with his power.

The fact the eldest prince longed for power wasn't any secret, although no one thought that he would act unless the king died. However, with that sudden increase of power, the chances of the eldest prince trying to remove everyone who could be a problem for him in the future were high.

The prophecy only spoke about Sebe's death, but there was no way he was the only victim because although Sebe was someone who had opposite ideas than the eldest prince, there were other princes more dangerous than him for the eldest prince.

Although Yale understood that, he didn't have any plan to help the other princes because only Sebe was his friend, the destiny of the other princes weren't important to him, nor he had an obligation to help them.

In fact, that was something that benefited Yale because as the other princes had higher importance than Sebe, the eldest prince wouldn't attach a lot of importance to Sebe's murder.

To catch all the princes off guard, they needed to be killed almost at the same time, which would force the lackeys of the eldest prince would need to disperse.

If all the forces of the eldest prince attacked together, Yale wasn't sure of being able to save Sebe without using a trump card, but if they were dispersed, fooling them should be possible.

However, before thinking of how saving Sebe, Yale wanted to ensure the safety of his sisters. Yale knew that Wyba was in the house, but with the Bloodline Radar, he found that Aiwai was inside the castle, which was a problematic place.

”Shirk, do you know how to enter the castle today? My sister is inside.”

Yale's understanding of the palace was too low, but Shirk was a guard, so his information should be better.

”Any other day, Sir Yale will be able to enter the palace even without my help, but today the only ones in charge of the doors are the eldest prince's guards, and they had forbidden any access without the authorization of someone of the royal family. Even other guards and servants are unable to enter or exit without that authorization.”

Yale knew that usually to enter the castle, he wouldn't have problems. He was asking Shirk just because that day was special and Shirk confirmed what he was fearing, the castle was isolated to anyone who wasn't from the royal family.

”I will go to pick up Wyba. Follow Sebe for now; I will be there soon to help.”

Yale understood that to enter the castle he would need Sebe's help and entering the castle was a must to ensure Aiwai's safety.

Yale ran towards the room where Wyba was playing with some dolls Aiwai had made to her.

”Wyba, you need to come with me. The situation may turn dangerous, at that moment I will put you in the Storage Space, so don't resist.”

Wyba didn't understand the situation, nor she liked to be put in the Storage Space, but she noticed Yale's worried expression and nodded obediently.

Yale could force Wyba into the Storage Space even without her consent, but he would need a bit more time if she resisted, and in a real battle that bit of time would be fatal.
