311 Unexpected Meeting (2/2)

”Sebe, I never expected that you were the person Julie was speaking of.”

Sebe didn't have any beast part since his bloodline was upgraded unless he changed voluntarily to half-beast form, but in a place like Trade City doing that wasn't wise.

”Yale, my friend. I had been waiting for you all his time. Come, enter the room. I can't let my benefactor wait outside.”

Julie had already guessed that probably those two knew each other from before, but she didn't expect that they were so close to the point that Sebe considered Yale as his benefactor.

”Just what kind of experiences Yale had after he left Trade City that time...”

Julie wasn't able to imagine anything about Yale's journey since he left until he returned.

Yale and Julie followed Sebe inside the room until they reached an area with some expensive seats and the three of them sat there.

”I am not the only one here. Shirk come, Yale is here. You don't need to hide.”

A cloaked person also appeared there, and after seeing that Yale was there, he put off the cloak and showed his reptilian face. Shirk's looks were a huge problem in the Zuatania Republic, but luckily, he was traveling with Sebe. However, he still preferred to hide his looks form others as much as he could.

Julie also knew about Shirk since the day Sebe rented the room, but for Julie, someone like Shirk who had enough background to reside in the most expensive room of the hotel had far more status than any human who couldn't even pay the cheapest one.

”As long as one had money that person is a customer.”

Julie worked with that mindset, so the usual discrimination against half-beasts by the citizens of the Zuatania Republic wasn't something that applied to her.

”Shirk, you look well as always, come to sit with us.”

Yale was quite happy to have met Sebe and Shirk since he left the Anpaes Kingdom without having a chance to bid farewell.

Shirk was a bit doubtful because his status was far inferior to Sebe and Yale, but he didn't dare to disobey Yale's words.

”Sebe, you can start explaining yourself right now. Why are you here?”

Since the other party was Sebe who treated Yale very well in the past, Yale didn't want to make the things difficult for him and gave him the chance to explain the whole situation.

”I am not too sure either. After I dealt with the people of the True Empire residing in the Anpaes Kingdom, I returned to report everything to my father. At that moment, my father told me that you would appear one year later in the Zuatania Republic with intentions to leave the continent, so he sent me here to meet you.”

Sebe's father had met the Mysterious Expert before, and that time it was also the Mysterious Expert who told Paku what his son needed to do.

At that moment, Yale also guessed that probably the same person who had acted as his background in the Anpaes Kingdom was the one who told that to Sebe's father.

”After reaching this place, I heard that a company sold plushies of Wyba and I thought that it was your little sister, so I went there and then I meet Julie and that other guy.”

Sebe discovered the truth about Wyba at that time, since both, the wolf and the half-beast were Yale's little sister. It was quite difficult for him to believe that Wyba was a Divine Beast capable of transforming, but since the Divine Beast Bloodline existed, it wasn't impossible for a Divine Beast to be related with Yale.

Of course, Sebe didn't say anything about Yale having a Divine Beast Bloodline nor revealed Wyba's transformation skills.

”At that time, they were thinking about decorating their building, so I proposed to put your image with Wyba in one face of the building. Your company is unstoppable in this country right now. If you turn a bit more popular, with the support of the company you can turn this republic into a kingdom and be the king easily.”

Yale sighed after confirming that it was Sebe's fault, but he did it because he wanted to help Yale in obtaining the whole Zuatania Republic.

”The paintings on the other three faces are Wyba, a pack of Frost wolves, and finally me. Oscro was left out, after the failure of his plushies he didn't have the guts even to dare to say anything about it.”

Julie spoke at that moment to clarify that because she guessed that Yale didn't inspect all the building.

”I see. Sebe, I don't have any interest in power, you don't need to make that kind of plans.”

Yale discarded any idea of beating Sebe because he was stronger than the current Yale, and Sebe didn't do it to obtain any benefit from Yale when he says about putting him on the building's wall.

”Yale, you should have guessed it, but I want to follow you to the other continent.”

At that moment, Sebe's face turned serious as he spoke about his true intentions. Paku had only ordered him to meet with Yale, as for what to do afterward, it was Sebe's decision.

After all, the Mysterious Expert only told Paku that Sebe needed to meet with Yale before Yale departed from the continent.
