260 The Ruler (1/2)

Yale observed Nurvey who had changed a lot in the last six years.

She was taller compared to before, but she was still a head shorter than Yale was. However, Yale was quite tall, so Nurvey's height wasn't that bad for a girl.

Nurvey's body didn't lose to Aizu's, but the expression on her face and her demeanor were completely different; her expression was cold and aloof, she transmitted the sensation that she was above the ordinary people, which was very suitable for someone of her position.

Moreover, she was already at the 5-star Practitioner Rank, an extremely high level for someone of her age. Part of it was due to her talent, but being taught by the Emperor Revgen himself had played the biggest role in her increase of strength.

”Where is Wyba?”

Except for Yale, everyone else was surprised by those words; especially Lashar who knew who Wyba was.

”She is with me, but she is hidden because I feared that some foolish guards would try to kill her if they were to see her appearing from the portal.”

The guards felt like if their blood was frozen after being coldly stared by Nurvey; they could sense that her anger was even greater than when they attacked Yale.

”No food. One month.”

The elders understood that Nurvey was ordering that those prisoners shouldn't eat anything for the next month. That was quite cruel even though they were at the Expert Rank and didn't have the same need to eat as much as an ordinary mortal, one month without eating anything would still be hard for them, although it wasn't something that would kill them.

Nurvey was about to ask Yale to let her meet Wyba when she saw something that she never believed that would happen.

The Emperor Revgen had appeared personally.

”Grandfather!”

Nurvey was Revgen's granddaughter, and she was the relative who had the closest relationship with him due to being also his disciple, but even she needed to go seeing her grandfather when she wanted to speak with him.

”Oh, little lass, you are also here. This old man had come to see an old friend.”

It was pretty weird hearing Revgen, who looked like a handsome man in his thirties, to speak about himself as an old man, but everyone who knew his identity knew that he was extremely ancient despite his looks.

”Revgen...”

Yale muttered softly after seeing that man who had suddenly appeared. He was able to recognize him even without anyone else pointing it out.

At that moment, everyone was shocked by Yale's way to speak with Revgen. Although he had just muttered those words, those elders were able to hear him. Moreover, based on Emperor Revgen's previous words, there was some kind of relationship between the two of them.

However, Yale had no time to worry about the strange faces of the elders because he started to have a great headache.

”The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Pain Tolerance] to Level 41.”

”The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Pain Tolerance] to Level 42.”

”The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Pain Tolerance] to Level 43.”

The pain he was feeling made the level of his Pain Tolerance to soar while a lot of memories related to Revgen resurfaced in his mind. Most of them were miscellaneous memories, but with them, Yale couldn't see Revgen as an unrelated person to him like moments ago when he didn't remember anything about him. After obtaining those memories, he couldn't avoid considering Revgen as a true friend.

”The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Pain Tolerance] to Level 60.”

”The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Pain Tolerance] to Level 61.”

”The user upgraded the Passive Skill [Pain Tolerance] to Level 62.”
