Chapter 117: Chapter 115

Yale’s group received a warm welcome in the border town, and they had a celebration party at night.

The main reason for that was the fact Yale’s group exterminated that bandit group; those bandits had killed a lot of soldiers of the border town when they were outside the town patrolling, so everybody was happy they were finally eradicated.

Yale had decided to spend the next day resting; he knew that once he entered into the Anpaes Kingdom would be difficult to have time to rest.

Any border town was a dangerous place as they were just in front of the border with the Anpaes Kingdom and would always be the first ones in being attacked when half-beasts attacked and thus, they hadn’t any healer with them.

They were already thankful that sometimes people come to supply medicinal pills to them, although a lot of times all the supplies were stolen on the way by the bandits.

The Zuatania Republic gave the job to guard the border to those who asked for military jobs, and wanted to obtain a lot of money in exchange; they never forced anyone to do the job. Although sometimes the only chance they had to enroll in the army and win money was going to the border, they didn’t need to join the army to live or earn money.

Although the republic also wanted to recruit healers, no one offered for the job because healers could make a lot of money in secure towns without the need of risking their lives. Even if some join the army, they would be able to put conditions and avoiding the border unless a war happened was a condition every healer who joined the army asked.

Because Yale also knew that, he had also used some of his time to heal the soldiers, treating with pills was far slower than with healing magic after all, and there wasn’t any heavy wound, so the healing process was quick.

It wasn’t that the soldiers weren’t heavily injured by the attacks of half-beasts, but those heavily injured were unable to survive without a proper healing, so the ones who were alive had only light wounds.

In fact, except the captain in Yale’s group and Yale himself, all the others currently in the border town were only warriors, there weren’t any mages or dual practitioners.

Pure Warriors were more limited to battle due to the lack of long-range attacks, but most half-beasts had the same problem unless their bloodline had access to some range attacks.

The mages and dual practitioners who were at least Rank 3, usually obtain better positions in the army and wouldn’t get stationed in the border unless a war was about to happen. They weren’t as picky as healers as they had less value than them, but their status was better than the pure warriors, and the government didn’t want to lose such valuable part of the army by forcing them to go to the border.

The same happened with good bloodlines in the Anpaes Kingdom, they weren’t as scarce as healers, but they were still valuable enough to avoid letting them waste their lives in outlaw groups.

Thus, the battles at the border usually ended in a melee struggle, which led to a lot of injuries on both sides, even if often the injuries weren’t life-threatening, a lot of people died every year.

Yale contacted Tar to communicate that he was already in the border town and was about to leave the Zuatania Republic; he was already at the limit of range to contact Tar.

Of course, he spoke very well about the captain and the other soldiers; Yale hoped that they would get a good reward for escorting him all the way.

“Use the badge to summon me if you are in front of any danger. Remember your current level.”

Tar was worried as the Anpaes Kingdom was hostile towards humans. He guessed that Yale had his means, but he feared that he would be reckless as it happened to a lot of reincarnated experts.

“Don’t worry Tar; I won’t play with my life. By the way, in the end, what happened to that traitor in the city?”

Yale had reported the matter of the bandits to Tar, and they didn’t need too much time to discover who had filtered the information. The culprit was already caught and judged by treason.

“The only thing that can happen for having betrayed the Zuatania Republic, a public execution. Furthermore, all his relatives have lost their citizenship together with all their properties.”

The Zuatania Republic moved with money and wasn’t too restrictive about the freedom of the citizens as long they didn’t break the laws, but betrayal was the worst mean to violate the laws in the republic, even people related to the traitor would suffer for it.

The fear of implicating the people related to them made everyone thinking two times before betraying the country for money.

Yale didn’t felt pity for that man, his betrayal almost killed all of them, or at least would have forced Yale to waste one of his trump cards if the captain hadn’t managed to end with the tiger-faced man.

In fact, the elder in charge of the city had also been punished as the man had obtained the information thanks to having worked for him. The elder would need to work for two years without any salary to compensate for the problems provoked by the already executed man.

The next day Yale said goodbye to everyone and walked towards the mountain range that marked the border between the two countries. The soldiers didn’t know why Yale was going to the Anpaes Kingdom, but since they know who was backing him, no one dared to ask.

Fortunately for Yale, the Anpaes Kingdom had almost all their territory from north to south, the area from west to east was shorter than the same area in the Zuatania Republic.

It was still too huge to traverse, but if he had to walk from Trade City to the border, he would need far more time than to cross the whole Anpaes Kingdom.

The bad part was that the Anpaes Kingdom had a lot of irregular terrains, so it will be more difficult to travel than an open terrain. However, Yale hoped that he would be able to sort most of the obstacles relying upon Wind Wings.

Yale had covered his whole body with a cloak, that way it would be more difficult to tell if he was human or half-beast, in the border it would be possible to find both so it was better to avoid problems.

Ordinary humans couldn’t detect bloodlines, but some half-beasts were sensitive to them even at long range and almost all at short-range, as long Yale didn’t try to block his Frost Winged Wolf bloodline, most half-beasts wouldn’t attack him.

Yale usually had the bloodline inactive and only activate it to use Bloodline Force. However, as Wyba was still at the 9-star Mortal Rank, the limit to the Bloodline Force was just the double of that realm’s limit.

Yale’s usual stats in strength and agility were almost at that number, so Bloodline Force wouldn’t be too useful for him until Wyba would increase her realm; thus he hadn’t activated the bloodline since before leaving Trade City.

Yale only needed an hour to reach the foot of the nearest mountain where he used Shape Shift to change his covered appearance for a half-beast appearance.

However, as Yale’s bloodline was extremely pure, he only made slight changes in his body and not big ones.

He changed his hair color to the same as Wyba’s hair and the same with the color of his eyes; those changes were easy as they were only modifying colors.

The other two changes were more difficult, but Yale was already skilled enough with Shape Shift to make them without too many problems.

Those two changes were his human ears for wolf ones and creating a wolf tail at his back; even the purest half-beast would have such traits, so Yale also needed to imitate them to fake well his identity.

Yale had tried that transformation in private a lot of times, but he still felt strange with the ears and the tail.

However, Wyba liked a lot the appearance Yale had after the transformation and liked to play with Yale’s ears when she was at the top of his head.

Yale was happy that Wyba liked that appearance, but he felt too weird when Wyba was playing with his wolf’s ears, that only made more difficult to him being used to that form.

Finally, Yale used Wind Wings and flew towards the mountain, flying was quicker than climbing it after all.

Wind Wings also were also modified based on the wings Wyba created to fly. At that moment Yale’s Wind Wings seemed to have physical form although it was only an illusion as he hadn’t used Shape Shift to create them because it will be problematic having real wings with his current clothes.

That day Yale left the Zuatania Republic and crossed the border entering into the Anpaes Kingdom.
