When Yale opened his eyes, he was still sat in a big table with a lot of food, but obviously, the food wasn't the same as before.
Moreover, although he was still in a luxurious place that could perfectly be a palace, it wasn't the palace he was before.
He looked at his side, but Lar was the one sat where Tofesh had been previously. Tofesh was at Lar's side, eating happily.
Lar hadn't been eating since they were in enemy territory, but after the present changed, there wasn't such a worry anymore, so it wasn't strange that Yale let Lar enjoy the meal with them.
The problem was that Yale couldn't remember what happened in the new past he created, so he wasn't sure of the situation.
In fact, it was just that he wasn't skilled enough to get those memories immediately after changing the past.
Looking at his other side, he saw a young man who seemed a little more mature than the one he saw in the past, but not too much.
Since nothing blocked his training, the person that was a weak old man barely an immortal before Yale changed the past, had turned into a handsome and powerful ninth level immortal.
After looking a bit more, Yale discovered that there was another powerful ninth level immortal sat on the table.
"Master, are you listening?"
While Yale was still evaluating the situation, the young man spoke.
"Son, don't press your master too much. You may be the Emperor now, but you still need to be more patient. You can't imagine how the mind of someone so powerful works."
The other ninth level immortal was the previous Emperor and the father of the Emperor of that era, who was the young man speaking to Yale.
"It doesn't matter if I am the Emperor or not. My master is already the owner of this universe, I don't need to act as an Emperor in front of him."
The Emperor was usually very calm and patient, but he acted like a child in front of his master. He knew very well that without his master, he would have suffered a lot.
However, Yale didn't bother about his disciple's personality, he was just bothered about those words about being the universe owner.
He remembered that it was an ownerless universe, so it wasn't impossible becoming its owner, but Yale didn't remember doing anything that could fulfill the conditions.
"Master really lives to his legends. In just a day, he did so many miracles that he became the universe owner. As I expected of my master."
The previous Emperor laughed when he heard the words of his son.
"You were the one who created those legends and spread the word about how magnificent Master Liye was. Don't deny that you wanted him to become the owner of this universe from the start."
Just as he said, the Emperor had that intention from the moment he acknowledged Yale as his master.
He worked hard to spread legends about Master Liye that, with the past of the age, became popular culture. If it weren't because no one else had seen Yale except for the Emperor, the ownership of the universe would have changed long ago.
After all, a legend was just a legend. Although the main religion of the universe venerated Yale, most of them doubted that master Liye really existed and treated him more like spiritual support.
However, when Yale appeared, the Emperor rushed to meet him and asked him if he could help with some problems of the universe, and Yale agreed, which for everyone else was seeing a living legend, a God descending and provoking miracles.
That dispelled any doubts about Master Liye's existence, and Yale became the owner of the universe immediately.
As someone worshiped as a God for several millions of years, Master Liye had an identity that was superior to that of the Emperor.
In that timeline, Yale also did tourism together with Tofesh, but that time, the treatment was vastly different.
Whole planets stopped all their activity just because Yale visited them, and the day was marked on the whole history of the whole planet as the most important happening since the planet was created.
"Well, that is true, but it is our honor that Master Liye turned into the owner of this universe. No one else deserved this position."
The Emperor felt that his master deserved a higher position than himself, so he decided that Yale should be the universe owner.
If it weren't for him trying to boost his master's reputation, the Emperor would have become the universe owner himself since he was liked a lot in the universe.
The dreams he had about the other timeline made him far more empathic with normal people that any other Emperor on the history.
Thus, he was also the most liked Emperor on the history, and he won that respect by his actions, not by using his power.
Anyway, he was also the strongest Emperor on the history from a few years before Yale arrived when he really surpassed his father, who previously held that title.
"Even if you did it, don't admit it so bluntly, it is embarrassing."
A woman sat at the Emperor's side spoke while pinching the Emperor. She was just an eighth level immortal, but she was qualified to be in that table since she was the wife of the Emperor.
Initially, she was just the daughter of one of the servants and had the same age as the son of the previous Emperor, so she had been in charge of playing with him when he was a child, but it wasn't until she was killed in the previous timeline that the son of the previous Emperor noticed that he loved her despite the difference of status.
Thanks to his dreams, he also noticed it in that timeline. Sometimes until losing someone, one didn't notice how important that person was. Thus, he confessed his love after the problem with his brother was settled.
As for the daughter of servants, she had been in love with the previous Emperor's son from the start, but she never dared to say something due to their difference in status.
Despite their love for each other, a lot of people complained because although it wasn't unprecedented that someone that would become the Emperor took a wife without background, at least those wives had always been extremely talented, but the woman chosen by him was just average.
However, the previous Emperor supported them and made all the complaints disappear, and his son helped the average girl to train, so she managed to turn strong enough for the position.
She knew that without Master Liye, she wouldn't be together with his husband and would have died in the past, so she was also very grateful to him, but she felt ashamed of how her husband acted.
In fact, except for the Emperor, no one else on that universe was alive in the previous timeline, so even if they didn't know, they all were alive thanks to Yale.
"Don't worry. There is no way to lie in front of my master, so it is better to be straightforward. Anyway, master, forget the words of my wife. Will you accept the five thousand ninth level immortals I am offering you to defend the universe you were born? I know that with your power, the enemies are doomed to die, but I want them to know that even without you interfering, no universe related to you should be touched."
Five thousand ninth level immortals were far less than the quantity that the Emperor of the other timeline had, but it was still quite a big number.
"Do as you please, but I won't accept pawns to sacrifice."
Yale was still feeling a bit off due to the sudden changes, but he really felt that he needed help in case he couldn't stop some universes in time.
However, Yale knew that the other believed that he was far stronger than he really was, so he needed to put the act that he really didn't care about that matter.
"Don't worry, I will never send my subordinated to die pointlessly. They are also eager to battle for your sake. They are treating the autographs you gave them like their family heirloom."
Yale didn't know how to react to that, so he just ignored it. He didn't know why he suddenly started to gift autographs in that timeline, but he felt that not having control of his own actions after changing the timeline was a real pain.
While thinking about what else changed, Yale heard a cute voice.
"Master, here is the food you asked."
Yale turned back and saw a young girl dressed in maid's clothes. He didn't understand why such a young girl was already working, but then he noticed that she was a ninth level immortal, so he felt that she just liked seeming a little girl.
However, he felt something familiar when looking at her.
"Tawa, just put it here. Our master seems a bit lost on his thoughts right now."
At the instant Lar spoke, Yale finally understood everything, but he couldn't believe that his versatile weapon, Tawa, had taken human form in that timeline.
Moreover, he didn't understand why she was dressed as a maid, he was sure that he didn't have that kind of fetish.
At that moment, Awat's face appeared on his mind, and he felt that he had already found a culprit.
