Revgen was alone in the room where were deposited all the tokens of those who left the Revgen Empire to go to the other continent.
"It has been already ten years, and I still haven't been able to avenge them…"
Ten years ago, Revgen rushed to that place after receiving the transmission of Yale's token and afterward he saw how the rest of tokens started to break.
Of the tokens, he had there, only those of Wyba, Aiwai, George, Zack, Kermu, and Serka were still intact, which for Revgen meant that the others had all died.
Although he didn't know about Yale's state since Yale broke his token beforehand to send a message to Revgen, Revgen knew that the situation was dire and believed that even if Yale survived, he would be heavily injured.
Revgen had the impulse to rush over there and start a killing spree, but he was still unable to leave.
Nurvey's death affected him a lot since she was his favorite descendant and it wasn't wrong saying that it was the most important member of his family.
However, he knew the consequences if he were to leave the continent at that moment, and it wasn't like if Revgen could resurrect those who died just by going to the other continent to avenge Yale's group.
"This is too frustrating, but I can't do anything else right now…"
No one saw Revgen while he was in such state, but fortunately, it was pretty normal that Revgen didn't show his face to others.
Revgen wasn't the only person in the eastern continent worried by Yale's group. The king of the Anpaes Kingdom, Paku, saw that Shirk's token broke, and although Sebe's token was still intact, he was extremely worried for him.
"Sebe, you must return alive."
Paku didn't know about who would be traveling with Sebe and Shirl besides Yale, and Paku knew that Yale had far more chances to return alive than Sebe. Moreover, since Paku didn't have any token indicating if Yale was alive or not, there was no way for him to confirm Yale's current status.
In fact, not even the original tokens left by Yale in the past in the Nacesai Academy and to his friends still existed because after the end of the war with the True Empire, while Yale was still unconscious, all of them disappeared mysteriously without anyone noticing it after Yale had already departed from the continent. Thus, the token on Revgen's possession that showed him the situation of Yale's group was the only one that could indicate Yale's state, and it broke ten years ago to let Revgen receive the message.
The last person who spent the past ten years feeling as if he had fallen into a nightmare was Oscro, who saw that Julie's token broke. Oscro managed to succeed in the company thanks to Julie's directions, but he didn't know what would happen with him after that.
Moreover, since Julie died, he wasn't optimistic enough to think that Yale was in a perfect state. After all, with Yale's personality, there was no way he would let someone die unless he was in a situation unable to help.
At the other side of the ocean, in the western continent, there had been great changes in these past ten years.
For a lot of time rumors had been spreading at all sides, but all of them were different in the content despite referring to the same fact.
At that moment very few people were unaware of the changes in the continent because more than a third part of the continent turned into wastelands where it was impossible to live as they were filled with a dense death aura.
No one was sure of the identity of the one who provoked it, but most people started to call that person the Death God. A merciless and powerful existence that destroyed everything without caring about those who would suffer for his actions.
However, at the same time, it seemed that the Death God had only interest in some places and didn't have much interest in destroying the whole continent.
For that reason, there was something common in almost all rumors, those areas who turned into wastelands were somewhat related to an offense made to that Death God, and those acts were just the retaliation.
"Have you heard the latest rumor. It seems that the Death God is living in the Death Mountain."
The Death Mountain was a famous place that gathered countless criminals, and despite being a place belonging to the Dwarf Kingdom, no one dared to approach it.
However, there had been some years from anyone hearing something of those criminals, and the rumors said that a lost merchant neared it by mistake and aged twenty years in an instant due to the dense death aura surrounding the Death Mountain.
Moreover, that was just nearing the Death Mountain, so it was easy to understand that entering it would be an instantaneous death for anyone who wasn't a powerful expert with a huge quantity of lifespan remaining.
Previously, the name of Death Mountain was because the criminals would kill anyone who neared the mountain, but that death aura didn't exist, so it was immediately attributed to the Death God.
"It is true that the Death God hasn't provoked any big disaster in the last years and that the criminals hadn't shown off themselves either, but in that case, isn't it too dangerous to be in a city so near to the Death Mountain?"
It was just a rumor, and there were similar rumors in a lot of places, but there were a lot of people already making plans to leave that city as soon as possible.
At the peak of the Death Mountain, there was a figure sat there with the eyes closed. That mountain was the last place where people related to the war were hidden, so he just sat there from that moment, without moving the slightest.
If those worried in the eastern continent were to see that person, they would undoubtedly recognize him as Yale. Although his hair had grown a lot, it wasn't difficult to recognize him.
Yale seemed a statue, and even the berserk essences had calmed down at that moment when suddenly Yale opened his eyes.
For an instant, the world seemed to stop as Yale's dark eyes turned golden and his hair acquired a silver color.
It was just an instant before both colors returned to normal, and not even the Mysterious Expert saw that change, but Yale smiled just after that.
At another part of the western continent, the woman who saved Aiwai and Wyba had just woke up.
The previous three days she had been comforting Wyba after she finally was unable to help Aiwai more and she ended turning into a living body with a soul that was like a puppet.
It was only after Wyba finally fall asleep that she also decided to rest a bit as she had overworked a lot the previous months to extend Aiwai's time a bit more.
"Good morning."
Wyba seemed to be also awake since she spoke once the woman woke up.
"Wyba, I am sorry. I did all in my power, but…"
She stopped halfway of saying that because Wyba had a face that showed that she didn't understand.
"Are you finally awake? You slept for three whole days. Thank you very much for saving me despite how much tiresome has it been to you."
The woman could only stare shocked at Aiwai who seemed to have already prepared the breakfast.
"How can this be… I failed, but how…"
At that moment, the woman's memories were a mess as some new memories popped out from nowhere. Just when the time was about to end, she learned a powerful skill from the piece of the legacy that she possessed, and that skill was precisely an unorthodox method to treat souls in the same state as Aiwai's soul.
That had been such a big coincidence that seemed difficult to believe.
"That is right. I saved you three days ago. I was just sleepy, and probably I had a nightmare due to being too tired."
At the same time, in the Revgen Empire, Revgen looked again at the tokens, and his face changed. Only Yale's token and Swordmad token were still broken. All the rest were in a perfect state.
Moreover, Yale broke it before dying, so it was still probably that he was alive, and that the only one who died was Swordmad in the end.
"I was sure that Nurvey and some others also died… Is there something wrong with my head today? I know that I am worried to know about the results of that war, but why I have I been so much worried after ten years. It is sad for Swordmad, but at least the others are alive."
A similar scene happened at the Anpaes Empire where Paku saw that Shirk's token was in a perfect state.
"Both are well, why am I worrying so much by them? It is normal that they needed a lot of time to return given that they went to the other continent."
As for Oscro's reaction, he directly woke up having forgotten that Julie's token had been broken for ten years, like if it had always been in a perfect state.
Of course, even the others soon forgot about those memories that provoked some disturbances on their heads.
Moreover, some people appeared from nowhere on the western continent, but it was like if they had been always there living among them. The rest of the citizens knew them very well from the past ten years and the ones who appeared also knew the others.
Near the Death mountain where Yale had just opened his eyes, the Mysterious Expert was looking at Yale.
"You and the universe creator managed to succeed in your unforgivable sins while being just weaklings, but I only did it after being at the peak of my strength… Moreover, the price both needed to pay for the sin has been far lower than mine; I suppose that it is my fault for how I did it."
The Mysterious Expert sighed.
"Anyway, this title is just useful in the Timeless Border, and using the Timeless Border too much will have negative effects in the current Yale since he is too weak in the real world. Just by obtaining this title doesn't mean that he could compare with the universe creator, he had just barely reached the qualification to obtain it, and he can't change the past again. Anyway, this is what I wanted, the first part of the plan is a success. I will be looking to work with you, Timeless Sovereign Yale."
