197 Lar and Liyes Story (2/2)
There was something strange with that behavior, but no one knew the true reason and mostly attributed it to be a madman of training. Although some people had asked him about that topic, he always avoided replying, so there was no doubt that there was some deep reason behind that behavior.
”Well, that is all. Now start explaining to me everything about us, maybe I will be able to remember you better after that.”
Yale didn't know if Lar would really tell the truth or not, but as her personality was still childish, Yale thought that maybe she would believe that having agreed to his terms was really binding.
”You probably don't remember, but I wasn't someone from this world; there are too many worlds inhabited by humans, and I lived in one of them. The first time we met was when you went to my world in your training journey.”
Humans were one of the species most spread across the worlds, and foreign humans were usually accepted in any other world controlled by humans.
”My father was the strongest human in that world although I can only remember that he had surpassed the Law Master level in seven laws when you appeared in our world.”
Lar almost didn't remember anything about her family, and the parts she remembered were all related to Liye.
Yale was shocked by the power of Lar's father; he was far more powerful than his own peak of power in his past life.
”At that time you have only surpassed the Law Master level in Swordsmanship, but that was still impressive, so my father requested to meet you.”
Any human who had surpassed the Law Master level in any law was someone worthy to befriend by the other powerful humans in different worlds.
”The first time I met you, I hated you. My father treated you too well, and I was jealous of you. At that time I was already a Law Master and had lived for a lot of time, but I had always been too pampered, and my experience dealing with outsiders was near to inexistent. Thus, I interrupted you and my father asking for a battle against you while I was thinking that beating you would be easy. In the end, you won against me without any effort, a completely one-sided battle, that was the first time I lost to someone else than my father in a battle of pure swordsmanship. That was a great shock for me.”
Yale had difficulties to understand how Lar ended loving him that much with such start.
”My father invited you to reside in our mansion while you were in our world and you accepted it. That just made me more upset, and I continued challenging you every day although I lost no matter how I tried to win. After some years, that daily battle with you was already something normal to me.”
There was nostalgia in Lar's eyes.
”One day you told us that you were going to leave. My father wished you good luck on your journey, but I couldn't accept it, I wanted to continue battling against you. In the end, I decided to pursue you to continue challenging you, we couldn't battle every day like before, but that was still better than nothing.”
Yale was still confused, until that moment, she had just following Liye to battle against him, and that explained their constant battled across different worlds, but it had no relation to that deep love she had towards him.
”Although I always told you that I just didn't want to stop challenging you before surpassing you and even I told that to myself, after some time I understood that what I wanted wasn't just battling against you every day, I wanted to be with you forever. Unconsciously, I had started to love you in those years you had lived at our house when you battled against me every day. However, I had never enough guts to tell you because I feared being rejected as there was never any romantic interaction among us since we met.”
The nostalgia was replaced by sadness.
”It was only when you told me about your soul that I realized that my hesitation made me lose you, so I swore to myself never hesitate about my feelings again. When you told me about your need for bloodlines, I offered myself without thinking about it two times.”
Lar's face changed again, but that time her face was red.
”It wasn't for a long time, but that time you remained together with me was the happiest in my life, and I wanted my life to be like that forever. However, I knew that you didn't have a lot of time before dying due to your soul, so I could just restrain my wish and hope to have another chance in your next life.”
Although Yale didn't understand how she ended loving the person she wanted to beat in battle, he felt that Lar spoke the truth.
