250 Rescuing Ange (1/2)
Yale reappeared in front of the altar before the paleness of his face faded; it didn't matter how exhausted he was at that moment, he wanted to rescue Ange as soon as possible.
His father noticed that he was pale, but he didn't ask anything about it; he had already decided that both of them hadn't any relationship once Ange was safe.
”Did you find a way to avoid the danger for her?”
That was the only topic he wanted to speak with Yale, and Yale thought in the same way.
”Yes, but the measure is only temporal, and I need to take her to Imperial City to ensure her safety; I will just delay the retaliation for now. Of course, she needs to come with me.”
Yale told the truth, but even if he didn't need to take Ange with him, he would still look for a method to keep Ange with him; he didn't want her to be with someone who let her be kidnapped because he put the safety of the rest of his family in front of Ange's safety.
He didn't think that his father saving the rest of the family was an evil deed because it was normal thinking about saving the most one can save.
However, personally Yale didn't want Ange to be put in danger by anyone even if all those other wives and children from his father were to die due to that, so he was still angry about his father's actions. He thought as that had happened once it could happen twice, so there was no way he would let Ange live with her father, or she might again turn into a decoy to save others.
For Yale, not all the lives had the same value, and Ange's life was far more valuable than the entire Roanmad Clan. Yale never considered himself a righteous person; he just acted in a way to benefit himself and those who are important to him. However, he didn't like to harm innocent people without a good reason even if he wouldn't hesitate to kill people as long he had enough reasons for doing it.
He always felt that those people who always wanted to differentiate everything only between rightful and evil were too narrow-minded because in a lot of cases that wasn't objective nor limited to those two options.
Yale's father sighed after hearing Yale because he didn't know if he was telling the truth or only trying to cheat him, but there was no way he could disagree since he didn't have any other way to save Ange.
”Alright. I know that Ange would also choose to be with you if she was conscious. She had always sided with you no matter how I tried to separate her from you. I truly hate you, you killed my wife and stole my daughter.”
Yale was seriously thinking to punch his father's face after hearing that; if it hadn't been for Ange taking care of him, maybe he would have no emotions at all with such a gloomy childhood.
He knew very well that the lack of interactions with other people had affected his personality a lot, and if he had had a more normal family, he wouldn't have had such social problems when he was a child. Thankfully, the time he lived with Aiwai helped him to partially solve his problems although he still couldn't consider himself a very social person.
”I also hate you. Probably this is the only thing besides saving Ange in which we think the same.”
After saying that, Yale put his hand in Ange's body and moved her body to the area of the Storage Space with the time stopped.
Although he had already expected it, the sub-quest didn't finish after he had put Ange inside the Storage Space because the root of her problem wasn't solved yet.
His time limit remained the same, and it was the time he had before that time-stopped area faded; he truly wondered if the system had known how the things would be since the first moment.
However, when Yale checked the Quest Menu, he found that another sub-quest appeared even if the previous one was still active; that was the first time two sub-quests were active at the same time.
