371 Timeless Borders Shadows (1/2)
”I understand.”
Yale already understood very well his situation, and he felt that he had great luck for having such an awesome grandfather.
”It is time for you to leave. I already told you everything I can tell, and your will had toughened enough to prevent having problems with any malicious shadow.”
Although the Battle God wanted to help Yale more than he did, he also knew that he mustn't surpass the limits imposed to him.
”Thank you very much. I am really happy to have discovered that I have such an awesome grandfather. I will find you in the real world one day, I promise.”
At the start, Yale was only interested in finding his original parents, but after meeting the Battle God, Yale also added him in his list.
”I also hope so. Remember, you need to turn stronger to meet with the real me. Due to my level being lower than others despite my huge strength it will be easier for you meeting me than any of your parents. Now, you shall go.”
The Battle God pointed a direction while ending to say that and Yale followed it without saying anything else.
Since the Battle God had his own path that no one else followed, his influence towards fate was only a bit higher compared to that of a World God despite himself being able to kill Origin Gods.
After seeing Yale disappear in the direction he indicated, the Battle God sighed.
”I did as you ordered me. Although I also wanted to help him, following your restrictions isn't something I like, especially coming from someone who didn't want to reveal its identity. If it weren't because you told me that this was for Yale's sake and that you are the main consciousness of a Timeless Sovereign, I wouldn't have bothered to obey you.”
When the Battle God spoke, he also sent a glare to a point on the darkness from where a person appeared from nowhere.
”Don't worry; I don't lie. This is definitely for Yale's sake. Moreover, I will fulfill my part of the deal and let your main body obtain your memories regarding Yale.”
Yale's grandfather knew that only a Timeless Sovereign could do something like that to trespass the memories of a shadow to the main consciousness residing in the body that was in the real world, so when he obtained a request form a Timeless Sovereign, he didn't just accept without putting conditions.
Although he was planning to help Yale anyway, he wouldn't have needed to restrain his words so much, nor feign that he was disappointed after Yale's first attack.
”I believe that a Timeless Sovereign doesn't need to lie to a shadow like me in the Timeless Border. However, we have already collaborated, can you at least told me your real name, I don't like that nickname of yours. Calling you by the nickname 'Mysterious Expert' just feels strange. It seems like if I am inferior to you and I don't feel like that not even in front of the other Timeless Sovereign who have a close relationship with me, and I know very well his strength.”
The Mysterious Expert laughed when hearing that.
”My real name is sealed. It isn't so strange, and even your grandson did it when he was a kid. It is quite a normal practice when one wants to hide something. Even you don't use your true name easily. As for not liking my nickname, you can call me in any way you like; it isn't like if I care about it. Besides the other Timeless Sovereign, only those weaklings who I can control easily know about my identity. Oh, I forgot that your grandson also knows about it, but the one who knows it isn't Yale's consciousness.”
The Battle God didn't react to the Mysterious Expert's words because although he was curious about the other party's identity, as long the other party wasn't an enemy, he didn't have any necessity to know it.
Unknowing about the meeting of the Battle God and the Mysterious Expert, Yale continued moving across the darkness and followed any voices he heard.
However, that time he did it because since there was no way to maintain a proper direction while being in the Timeless Border without someone else serving as a guide, he felt that it was better just follow those voices.
Of course, a lot of them were broken shadows or shadows with bad intentions, but Yale had changed after meeting the Battle God.
Yale's mind reached a point that it was impossible for broken shadows or normal shadows to see through it; it was still easy for the Battle God, but he wasn't the shadow of a random person.
Moreover, since he was fully capable of battling in the Timeless Border with a prowess that had been acknowledged by his grandfather, those broken shadows and malicious shadows were just destroyed by Yale's attacks.
The act of destroying the shadows and broken shadows was useless because they would continue to exist and end reappearing, but at least they would suffer quite a bit, and Yale wouldn't need to bother with them anymore.
