374 Timeless Borders Special Trial (2/2)

The kid sighed when he heard those words because he knew that the Mysterious Expert was right and that it was also an important part to obtain the capability of getting rid of the soul curse.

”You are just saying so because I am here, for any of us alone, let alone several million times more difficult, it would be completely impossible.”

The kid knew that he needed Yale to succeed in his plan, but even in that situation, the difficulty was extremely high. In fact, it was difficult to say if Yale would surpass the trial successfully or no.

”The plan had been created with that in consideration.”

While those two were speaking about the hidden truth that Yale didn't know, Yale was moving in a place that seemed the complete opposite to the Timeless Border despite being part of it. After all, it was fully white instead of fully black like the usual Timeless Border.

Yale didn't need to advance a lot before finding the presence of someone. It was different from the usual Timeless Border as it was determined from the start who would Yale meet and the direction, he would move was completely irrelevant.

”You are finally here. I wanted to have a long speech with you for a long time.”

Yale never imagined that the first person he would meet would be that man because he had already cut ties with him. That man was Yale's father from the Roanmad Clan.

”I think that there is nothing to speak between us.”

The man seemed quite sad after hearing Yale's words.

”I had time to think, and I want all of us to become a family again. I don't care about you and Ange being reincarnated experts. I was a fool to think that you two being reincarnated experts was a problem. Please, forgive me!”

Yale frowned while hearing that man spoke like that with tears in his eyes.

”Disappear from my sight. You are fake.”

The man immediately disappeared because he was really just an illusion and not a real shadow. After all, it wasn't that common entering in the Timeless Border, and Yale already guessed that the white space created fake shadows from his memories, so he guessed that there were far more fake ones than real ones. Moreover, Yale knew the truth about his decision after the illusion disappeared, so he confirmed that he guessed right.

”When I was a kid, I always wanted to have some of your attention, but now, I know very well that our paths have already crossed, and our fate together ended after we rescued Ange. You made me suffer, and I made you suffer. You won't beg something like that to me, and I won't accept it either. However, I don't hate you, and if for some reason our fates cross again, I wouldn't mind helping you a bit.”

The relationship between the two of them had been twisted from the start because the circumstances and neither of them was to be blamed for that. Yale would never consider that man part of his family, but he didn't harbor any grudge towards him anymore.

Yale felt like if he had taken off a burden after speaking those words that no one heard.

After that, some more shadows appeared, but all of them were from Yale's childhood, and until that moment all of them had been fake.

Among those shadows were Blackor, the first person against who Yale battled, the greedy elder who wanted to kidnap Wyba, members of the Roanmad Clan and from the Nacesai Academy.

Some of them were already dead in Yale's time before entering the Timeless Border, but Yale still considered if they were real or not. Although Yale didn't know how their fates could be twisted if they were dead, he considered about reincarnations and effects to people related to them.

At some point, his old enemy who ended dying at Yale's hands, Heruk, appeared in front of him, but he was cut in half by Yale at the same instant and disappeared.

He was also fake, but even if he had been real, Yale would have done the same because although Yale could understand and forgive grudges like the ones with his father, he couldn't forgive those who tried to harm his friends.

Although he also hated the greedy elder, Yale had just ordered him to disappear with cold voice since there hadn't been too much interaction between them, and Swordmad was the one who ended that elder's life. However, Heruk had been his true enemy, and the degree of hatred couldn't even be compared.

The next person was also someone of his past, but at that moment, Yale had a weird feeling as if there was something different.

”Probably this one is real.”
