Chapter 372
Swordmad smiled after hearing Yale's oath .
"I am sure that you will do it . Now, go ahead . Don't lose your time by the shackles of the past . "
There wasn't a concept of time in the Timeless Border, but Swordmad wasn't speaking about that literally, and Yale understood it before leaving .
Swordmad knew that Yale inwardly wanted to know more about his previous life, but Swordmad didn't want that Yale would end sacrificing everything just to learn about it .
Yale continued his path across the darkness while meeting a lot of shadows on his way .
"I have been waiting for you, Yale . "
When Yale heard a boy welcome him in that way, he was quite shocked . Although all the shadows showed interest in meeting others, only those who had a relationship with Yale knew about his name .
It would have been possible learning it before Yale met with the Battle God as Yale's mind was easy to read but doing it after that was quite difficult unless the other party had a will as strong as the will of the Battle God .
However, Yale didn't remember having met someone like the boy in front of him . Moreover, that was the first time he had seen a shadow that looked so young .
That boy looked at most nine or ten years old . He had silver hair and a pair of golden eyes that seemed filled with deep wisdom, which was something very strange in the Timeless Border and even in the real world for such a young boy .
"Have we meet before?"
Yale was sure that he didn't remember the other party, but at the same time, he didn't feel that both of them were complete strangers and even felt that they have a very close relationship .
"I guess that this should be the first time that I meet your consciousness, but I know you very well . "
Yale felt the situation even more strange than before . By the words of the boy, it seemed that he had met Yale's shadow or a shadow left in his previous life .
However, in case of being Yale's future shadow, Yale shouldn't have any feeling of relationship with that boy, and if it had been a shadow of his past life, he wouldn't have been called by his current name .
"Who are you? What relationship do you have with me?"
Yale felt that there was something strange about the other party, and he confirmed it after thinking it well about it .
At the start, Yale had neglected that fact due to the shock of having his name called, but that boy in front of him seemed to have a will as strong as the Battle God, which meant that had complete freedom and possibly could also read Yale's mind .
"No, he seems to be different . "
Yale instantly thought that because although that boy didn't seem to have any restriction like the Battle God, Yale's intuition told him that they weren't the same .
"Sharp intuition, as I expected . You are right, I am not like the Battle God because I am not a shadow, but a materialized consciousness like you . "
Yale was a bit shocked at the start, but no one had told him that it was impossible meeting with someone like him who was a real consciousness moving around the Timeless Border, so he didn't have much difficulty accepting it .
"As for our relationship . . . Can't you deduce it by looking at me?"
Yale looked that boy again . Before, his gaze was attracted by the hair and the eyes, so he failed to notice that boy's face .
At that moment, Yale's eyes opened to their limit because the face of that kid was seventy percent similar to his face when he was at that age .
"How can this be? Can he be my future son or grandson? This is the Timeless Border, and it isn't impossible to happen, but from where the hair and the eyes turned like that? That hair is similar to my half-beast form, but he looks like a human, so it shouldn't be related to that . Moreover, there is still the eyes . . . "
Yale's mind was in turmoil at that moment after realizing that it would be too hard for both of them not having any relationship at that point .
"Forget about my hair and eyes, they are just the effect of an ability I used before coming here, and the colors always return to normal after that . Originally, my hair and eyes are like yours . "
Yale was sure that the other party had read his mind, but after hearing that reply, he was even more sure that the other party was his descendant .
"Can you tell me your name?"
Although Yale had a lot of descendants due to the desperation of his previous life, he still felt weird with that situation since the boy in front of him didn't seem someone of the clans created due to the divine bloodlines .
"I can't . My name has been sealed together with my own existence . That is the reason I am in the Timeless Border . I can't return to the real world, or more exactly I mustn't return . "
Yale was unable to understand well the reasons for sealing his own existence in a place like the Timeless Border, but since he felt that he had a deep connection to that boy, he wanted to help as long as he had that capability .
"Can I help you in any way? You told me that you have been waiting at me, right?"
Yale saw that boy smiling after hearing the question .
"Indeed . You can help me, and I was waiting for your help . However, first I have some things to show you because you need to see them . "
Screens started to appear surrounding them . In one of them, Yale's body was killing the birdman ancestor, his army, and the red-eyed man .
After that, the Yale in the screen started to move to all the places related to the attackers and started a massacre . Everyplace that Yale passed by turned into a deadland where life couldn't flourish anymore .
Moreover, there wasn't any mercy on that Yale, destroying everything equally without caring for anything else .
Yale wanted to kill those related to the attack, but he never planned to make such extermination that didn't even let of members of their countries that didn't know anything about the war . However, since their taxes paid the army, Yale's body considered that they were also culprits .
"That is what happened to you after you entered here, or maybe what it will happen, everything depends on your point of view . "
Yale heard the boy's calm words and stopped bothering by the images of his body before looking to the other screens .
On one of them, Sebe, George, and Zack appeared in the midst of the air at a height that was sure death, but a man rescued them and started to treat Sebe's injuries .
On another, Kermu, Serka, and their daughter, Sammie, were rescued similarly by a beautiful girl .
Looking at the next screen, Yale saw another pretty girl grabbing Wyba and Aiwai after they appeared . That girl was expressionless and seemed quite cold, but she saved both of them, so Yale felt that she must be a good person .
Yale felt relieved after seeing those three screens, but his face changed when he saw the rest .
All dead .
Those three groups were the only ones that managed to survive, and even Ronragruk's group that were protected by the huge Ronragruk ended dying .
"Don't be depressed . This is the current fate, but it isn't impossible to change it . "
When Yale heard the boy's words, he remembered how Swordmad changed fate after returning from the Timeless Border .
"How can I change it? Is this related to the reasons for you needing me?"
Yale couldn't tolerate that ending because that luck was far too bad . The only ones who survived did it because they had help, and if it hadn't been for that everyone would have died .
The worst is that those enemies that were tossed to the space ripples survived, but anyway Yale also seen his body in the screen killing them afterward .
"It isn't easy in this situation, but if we collaborate, it isn't impossible . "
Yale nodded because he guessed that probably the boy also wanted to change something and needed his help . He felt that as long he managed to change that fate, it was right helping the other party to accomplish whatever he needed .
"Only eight of them are safe . This is too little . . . No, by Aiwai's situation, only seven . . . "
Although Aiwai had been rescued, Yale remembered the state of her soul .
"Don't worry, that woman who saved Aiwai have some understanding towards time and can prevent her soul for deteriorating for a while . However, I can ensure you that with the current curse of fate, it is impossible for you to rescue her before it is too late for her . "
Yale's face turned a bit gloomy after hearing that, but since he planned to change that fate anyway, he didn't think too much about it .
"How should we do it?"
Yale had no idea of how both of them could change that, but the boy seemed to know it .
"You should have already guessed that both of us are from different times . Combining past and future we should be able to overcome fate . My objective was meeting you, and yours was meeting me . After all, I am the past you have been looking for . Yale, my future self . "
