567 Good and Bad News (2/2)

After all, the membership couldn't cut through dimensions to look for the killer.

Of course, the killer didn't know that, and sometime after the crack closed, he noticed that he hadn't obtained the membership, but he couldn't do anything about it.

He even thought that Awat's master was still alive, but after asking around, he discovered that when the death happened inside a dimensional crack, it wasn't impossible that the membership just disappeared.

Awat's master was too weak to own that membership, especially after reincarnation, and he knew it, so he had already planned some things in case that he was caught by an opponent that he couldn't defeat. Sealing himself like that was something he planned for the worst situation.

”Don't be depressed, Awat. You have yet to hear the good news. Although I think that it is impossible to prevent his death when breaking the seal, due to the way it was created, I can also ensure that he did on purpose. From the start, he wanted to delay his death until the instant someone broke that seal. Do you understand its meaning?”

Awat shook his head.

”Unless someone surpassed the Minor Time Divinity bottleneck, it is impossible to notice that kind of seal, especially one did inside a crack between dimensions. Now, tell me. In what circumstances someone ahead of that bottleneck would be able to find him?”

Awat replied to Yale's question as if he finally understood Yale's meaning.

”When I asked that person to resurrect him and discovered that he wasn't dead.”

Yale nodded after hearing the answer.

”Correct. He did it on purpose to reach this situation, and the reason for that is very simple. It will always be easier to resurrect someone who died in front of you than someone who died who knows how many years ago. It seems that your master was still quite skeptical about the overall power of resurrecting others with the Minor Time Divinity, so he decided to use this plan to increase the chances. Well, this also means that he firmly believed that you would try to resurrect him once you had that chance.”

Awat's face lightened when he heard that because he knew that the chances to see his master again were quite high.

However, tears were also falling from his eyes, which was very strange to him. Those were tears of happiness.

That happiness was part of the chances of seeing his master again, but the other part was for how much confidence his master had on him when he executed that plan.

”I understand. As long as you promise to someday find my master and resurrect him, I will accomplish any duty you order me to do. it doesn't matter the difficulty as long as it is possible.”

Awat was very serious with his words. He only had one master, so for the sake of resurrecting him, he didn't mind how many favors he needed to do.

In fact, a lot of people would act in the same way for the chance of resurrected their beloved ones, so no one looked down on Awat for acting like that.

There had been people who offered the freedom of their souls to Great God Kroh in exchange for resurrecting someone, but Great God Kroh wasn't interested in such things. Needless to say, was that those who made that kind of offer were Great Gods, although they didn't belong to the Council of Gods.

After all, no one believed that great God Kroh would be interested in the lives of weaker people.

For some people, Great Gods included, as long as they were with their beloved ones, they didn't mind being a king or a servant.

Of course, despite Awat's offering to accomplish anything possible for Yale's sake, Yale considered him a friend, so he wouldn't use that offer more than to make Awat feel that he had been useful.

There were people who needed to repay favors no matter what, and they wouldn't be able to rest in peace if they didn't do something to help those who helped them, and Awat was in that group.

”Alright. I don't need anything right now, but if you want to do something for me, you can investigate for ascending universes. Any news about that would be useful.”

Yale didn't know if Alrein's universe was ready to ascend or not, but it was a fact that Alrein had that objective from the start, so Yale felt that it would be good to keep an eye on any universe that ascended.

”If it is about that, don't worry, I have a huge network, and our tribe had always been interested in new universes since it isn't that strange that weapon spirits are born at that time.”

The Weapon Spirit Tribe didn't want that other weapon spirits were oppressed, so they monitored new universes in the case they found that some newly awakened weapon spirit was about to suffer.

The owner wouldn't treat that weapon spirt badly, but if that owner were killed in the conflicts after ascension, the fate of that weapon spirit would be one that no weapon spirit wished.

After all, it was like Alrein thought, newly ascended universes were too eye-catching, so they usually ended up in conflicts.

”Speaking about that, there is one that recently ascended, but it is still in the isolation period. Right now, the only information about that universe is that the owner is called Alrein, and he currently lives in the universe. Even in this universe, there are several countries preparing to invade it once the isolation period finishes, but who knows when that will be, tomorrow on in a million years.”

Yale's expression was scary at that moment.

”They will die before being able to invade it.”

Yale's words could freeze a soul.

”Don't worry, Liye. I wanted to talk to you about this topic. I asked my grandfather to investigate it, and it seems that even in the worst situation, we still have a lot of years. Moreover, in this universe, no one would be fool enough to antagonize you. You just need to tell that you were born in that universe, and no one would dare to touch it after seeing you punish the Sacred Empire.”
