Capítulo 117: Wyba's Request

In the next days, Yale had visited some other villages, they were in relative better states than the first one, but all of them were still the weakest type of half-beast.

However, Yale managed to know that some half-beasts raised beasts to use their bloodlines after they grew strong. In fact, that was quite normal, raising beasts for different purposes was also did by humans although the objectives of the humans were obtaining food or materials from the beasts bodies.

That fact, worried Yale as someone may want to use Wyba for that purpose. Of course, anyone who needed a 9-star Mortal Rank bloodline wouldn't be able to beat Yale and steal Wyba, but after she grew stronger or her capacity to growth was revealed, Yale feared that would catch too many attention. Maybe even someone powerful would want her to give it to weaker ones.

Fortunately, no one had seen Wyba since he reached the Anpaes Kingdom, he always appeared alone in the villages.

Yale was being a bit paranoid with that as there wasn't a lacking of powerful wolf beasts, a 9-star Mortal Rank wolf in the Anpaes Kingdom wasn't something extraordinary.

However, that was only if the fact Wyba knew Water Healing wasn't revealed, bloodlines that allow using the power of healing were sought even if they were weak. Wyba learned water healing due to Yale's influence and not due to her species, but any half-beast would think Wyba had a mutated bloodline that allowed her to use healing magic.

Furthermore, if Wyba were killed to absorb her bloodline, it would only have bad effects for those who would have absorbed it.

Wyba's bloodline had been affected with the Origin Qi and synchronized with Yale, any other human or half-beast who absorbed such bloodline would only suffer negative effects, they could even die in the process. Besides Yale who was synchronized with her, no one could use Wyba's bloodline to strengthen themselves.

However, there was no way the half-beasts would believe that reason even if Yale were to tell them, so Yale chose to be paranoid and hide Wyba from everyone.

Yale had advanced through the Anpaes Kingdom for a month, and he found some half-beasts with slightly better bloodlines, but they were still under average, he still didn't find anyone with an appearance similar to him.

Yale didn't have any problem in that month; he had hidden from any beast who could be even a little troublesome, that caused that his Stealth Skill leveled until level sixteen.

After all, Yale might have some curiosity about the Anpaes Kingdom, but he was there because it was the only way to go back to the Revgen Empire and that was his main priority.

Yale didn't stop to train while traveling, but the travel itself was a great training, he felt that his progress turned faster since he started to traverse the Anpaes Kingdom. The training with the captain had also helped Yale a bit, but the major increase had been afterward.

"Name: Yale | Age: 13 | Origin Level: 12 |Origin Points: 191/191"

While Yale was checking the Stats Menu, he heard a scream.

He immediately checked the Mapping function and saw two spots moving quickly, one was pursuing the other, and both were weaker than Yale.

Yale rushed towards there to help, he wasn't a saint who saved anyone, but the scream was obviously from a little girl and given that he could save her, he would have left with a bad taste if he wouldn't do it.

The little girl who was running had a stripped feline tail; Yale guessed that she should be from a tiger-type bloodline and should have four or five years given her stature. Furthermore, she seemed to have an extremely pure bloodline, and she was already at the 9-star Mortal Rank.

Humans would never let a little kid alone in a forest with powerful beasts, even the Beast Trial of the Roanmad Clan was already a bit extreme with human thinking, but half-beasts had a different way of thinking as they wanted their children to turn strong as soon as possible. Thanks to the best blood in their bodies, those born as half-beasts could start improving their realms since their birth, but in exchange, they didn't have any protection of the world laws.

The beast who was following the little girl was a boar at the 1-star Novice Rank, although it seemed to had just breakthrough and was still far from the 2-star, it was more powerful than the little girl who hadn't reached the Novice Rank and was still too young to be able to supply the difference of realm with ability.

Yale asked Wyba to turn invisible with an illusion and then rushed towards the boar killing it with Frost Claw with just one hit just before the monster had caught the little girl who had stumbled and fell to the floor while running.

The little girl looked at Yale with a shocked face before starting running again.

Yale helped her only to avoid feeling guilty later, but at least he was expecting a thank you. He started to wonder if all the half-beasts were that rude when someone saved them.

"I don't like that girl."

Wyba spoke those words directly into Yale's wolf ear, which was still feeling weird to Yale.

"Well, she is rude for running without saying anything after I saved her life."

"It isn't only that; I hate the smell of her blood, it reminds me of mom's killer..."

Yale didn't expect that Wyba spoke that much as she usually didn't speak. In fact, she could speak more than she usually did since some time ago, but she wasn't very talkative due to her personality. As long as Yale cared about her, she didn't feel the need to speak about anything else.

However, Yale was more surprised by the fact Wyba remembered the smell of the Fire-wood Tiger's blood because she was merely a newborn at that time.

That little girl had some tiger-like bloodline in Yale's eyes, but Wyba was better than him identifying bloodlines, and she had detected the exact type, which was one she hated a lot.

"Well, even in that case, she doesn't have any relation with that Fire-wood Tiger. We can't hate others with the same bloodline due to what one of them did."

Yale felt that hating everyone with the Fire-wood Tiger bloodline due to the incident happened in the Beast Trial was as unfair as the hatred between species between humans and half-beasts.

Wyba didn't reply to Yale; she was smarter than most beasts and even more than the kids of her age in the villages Yale had visited the previous month. However, she was unable to feel well when smelling a bloodline with the same smell as the one who killed her mother.

Even if she was a newborn, everything that happened that day was something that was imprinted very deep on her; it was a trauma to her. Yale saved her life that day, and since that moment he turned as important as her mother to Wyba and recognized him as her big brother.

"There seems to be a town near there, that little girl ran until there. There is someone more powerful than me in that town, but the difference is only one star, it isn't something I can't manage. I will go to take a look; you can enter the Storage Space until I finish."

Yale had used his Spiritual Sense to check the only existence of a higher realm than him in the nearby village, but that half-beast was only at the 3-star Novice Rank, Yale could fight with him if he turned hostile. Furthermore, it was a town and not a village; it was the biggest community of half-beasts he had found since he reached the Anpaes Kingdom.

"I also want to go to the town."

Yale was surprised that Wyba asked that, she usually didn't complain about anything.

"Why? You know that there is the possibility that some people want to harm you there even if it isn't directly they can speak about you to bandits. Your illusion might not work with the one at the Novice Rank, so you can't remain under the illusion in the town."

Yale had told Wyba about how half-beasts killed beasts for their bloodlines and Wyba was alright hiding from the half-beasts to avoid problems, so he didn't understand why Wyba had that sudden change of opinion and wanted to go to the town.

"I want to battle that tiger-bloodline girl. I can ignore her bloodline, but I need to teach her that my big bro can't be ignored."

Yale was happy that Wyba wanted to fight for his sake and as she was about the same age and realm than the other girl it wouldn't be a problem for them having some sparring if Wyba wasn't a beast.

There was no way the other party would agree to have some sparring with a beast. Furthermore, Yale could understand Wyba but those without wolf bloodlines couldn't, to them Wyba would a normal wolf at the 9-star Mortal Rank.

Yale tried to explain it to Wyba, but she didn't agree, she was decided to battle with that girl. That was the first time for Wyba asking something, so Yale wanted to support her, but there were too many problems to fulfill Wyba's wish.
