234 Lashar Larken (1/2)
Lar's grandfather had heard about when Yale modified bloodlines before from Herken, but Herken told it to him implying that there was someone behind Yale acting and wasn't something Yale himself could do. However, hearing Yale's voice and pressure on his bloodline, he was sure that regardless if before was Yale or someone else who did it, at that moment the one doing it was Yale.
”Mercer, you are my disciple, you can't have such a pitiful bloodline.”
Yale's words still reverberated in everyone's heads, the pressure was enough to make them want to kneel.
In the same way that happened before to Herken and Durgan, Mercer's bloodline started to improve without stop; improving Mercer's bloodline was extremely consuming compared to the other two, but the remnant energy from those four was also far higher than the amount Yale obtained from the previous guy.
Mercer had yet to start training any path, so he didn't increase his level, but all his stats reached the limit thanks to the extreme bloodline improvement. He went from having a bloodline considered trash even among the outer clan to having a perfect bloodline. That was a complete change; he turned from being an untalented guy to a peerless genius that would be treasured by the clan. Yale had reversed Mercer's fate completely.
Lar's grandfather swallowed some saliva after sensing the changes on Mercer's body; that was far too shocking. If everyone could have their bloodlines improved in that way, there would be no lack of peerless geniuses like Lar in the Larken Clan.
”Herken, you did a good job finding Lar's grandfather to help in this situation. Moreover, you two proved your loyalty towards the Larken Clan.”
After hearing Yale's words, both of them sensed the change in their bloodlines and also made a breakthrough thanks to that improvement. At that moment both of them also had perfect bloodlines, but they knew that if Yale was angry, he could let them in the same state as those traitors.
”Current clan head of the Larken Clan! I know that you are spying us!”
Yale's words shocked everyone; the Clan Head was someone that even the elders had difficulties to meet. However, a cold laugh appeared on the sky when Yale spoke, and seconds later a woman appeared in front of him.
Lar's grandfather had met her before, and she was indeed the clan head of the Larken Clan. Moreover, she was there in person after hearing Yale's words asking her to appear; even if an elder asked her to appear, she wouldn't do it that easily. However, after seeing how Yale trashed an elder with some words, the fact that the clan head treated Yale better than an elder wasn't that impressive.
”You are even able to detect me, truly impressive. I am Lashar Larken, the current clan head of the Larken Clan. May I ask your relationship with the Sword God?”
No one understood who that Sword God which Lashar was speaking of was, but Yale was just staring coldly towards her.
”It is a shame that the current clan head was ready to look how those traitors killed everyone without acting.”
Everyone got a scare, thinking that even their clan head would suffer some kind of punishment for not saving them earlier.
”I rushed to here when I detected the first attack towards you. Luckily you saved everyone. That second attack happened with me observing the situation, and that attack was doomed to fail, I was ready to stop that traitor in the last second even if you hadn't acted.”
Lashar was calm, she didn't fear Yale and knew that Yale wouldn't act against her because that was pointless. Although she hadn't told it to the clan members, she had turned a Law Master some years ago, and given how Yale was able to detect her presence she also guessed that he discovered her secret.
Law Masters didn't fear aging and had an unlimited lifespan, so even if she lost her bloodline, that wouldn't provoke any big loss to her more than the fact she wouldn't be able to use it to suppress others with the Sword Bloodline. However, being in control of the Sword Law was already enough to suppress others if she wanted.
”You aren't going to reply me? I can see that your current mental state isn't normal. Probably you are being influenced by a legacy left by the Sword God. If my guess is correct, you should have obtained that sword and your ability to control the bloodline of the Larken Clan from that legacy.”
She wasn't angry by the fact Yale didn't reply to her; she didn't mind at all and was just proving if Yale would give her some information that she didn't know about the Sword God.
She had learned about the Sword God in some ancient documents from the period when the Larken Clan was established.
