255 A Threat to Lar (1/2)
”Let me go!”
In front of the portal, Lar shouted while trying to free herself from Lashar's hands.
”I won't let you go. Who knows what kind of danger there is on the other side, you are far too weak at this moment. If you go now, you will just be a burden for Yale. He is the one who chose to go alone, so you must believe in him.”
Since the moment that Lar learned about Yale returning to Nacesai City, she had been insistent on following him, but Lashar stopped her since the first moment because she felt that it was too dangerous for Lar.
Moreover, Lashar couldn't send any forces from the Larken Clan because that would be like saying that they had already noticed the existence of the True Empire and they wanted to keep that secret as long as possible.
As for Yale's safety, Lashar didn't have any worry; she believed that Yale would be able to deal with any problem because she didn't think that her ancestor was a rash person to run alone towards the danger without enough safety measures.
In fact, Lar's reason for wanting to go with Yale didn't have any relation with being worried about his safety. Lar was worried that Yale would meet some pretty girl that didn't look like a child; due to the complex with her child-like body, she truly feared that Yale would end up loving another woman due the other having a good body.
However, if she was present, she could act as a repellent to any women who tried to get closer to Yale.
”Aren't you tired? Just go to rest and let me go!”
Lar didn't give up in her struggle even if with her strength she had no way to get free.
Just when Lashar was about to reply again to Lar, the portal reacted and Yale appeared in front of them.
A smile appeared in Lar's face when Yale appeared, but it disappeared quickly as some more people also appeared following Yale.
Lar had no problems with the presence of Swordmad, George, and Zack, but her gaze was fixed in Aizu; even Lar needed to admit that she was beautiful and considered her as a threat. The existence of someone like her was what she had feared the most when Yale went alone to Nacesai City, and the fact that Yale returned with her put Lar on alert.
Fortunately, she wasn't the only one who came back with Yale, or Lar would have turned mad at that same moment.
Of course, she didn't know that Yale went to Nacesai City to save his sister, or she wouldn't have been surprised by one girl returning with him.
”She is merely at the Novice Rank; if she tries to steal my man, I will teach her a lesson.”
Strictly speaking, Yale wasn't Lar's man because he had never agreed to that, but she considered that as she had had children with Yale's previous life in her previous life, she was the only qualified woman to be with Yale. She could tolerate that Yale didn't agree to be with her, but she wouldn't tolerate that a random and weak woman tried to seduce Yale.
Moments later, even Lashar's face changed because a huge Frost Wolf with a huge pack of wolves following it appeared just after the few humans crossed the portal.
Those beasts weren't a threat to Lashar, but there was too many of them and if they were to turn crazy and start killing it would be a problem.
”Those beasts are Wyba's followers; they won't attack anyone unless that person belonged to the True Empire or had offended us.”
Lashar and Lar were shocked when they heard that part especially because they saw a little half-beast girl with wolf ears sitting on the hugest Frost Wolf. That was the first time that they saw Wyba's half-beast form.
At the start, Yale had planned to ask Wyba to return to the Storage Space before crossing the portal, but at that moment, those wolves appeared and wanted to follow Wyba.
Although a beast horde of only wolves wasn't as strong as the previous one, they were a great power to use, so there was no way Yale could reject them. Moreover, Wyba liked having some unconditional followers because, with them, Yale wouldn't make her wait without battling in case of danger. At least commanding the beast horde, she would be helping him.
