Chapter 383

A carriage moved slowly for the road thanks to two skinny horses, which was the best kind of horse available in a poor area like the one near the Death Mountain .

Only the elderly people and the children traveled inside the carriage with the rest walking around it .

That wasn't the best method to move, but there was only one carriage, and those who were inside wouldn't be able to endure the travel walking .

Besides the elderly and children, Yale was also inside the carriage . That wasn't because Yale couldn't walk or he was lazy, it was something the three families insisted .

Although they didn't know how strong Yale was, they knew that at least he was enough to defeat all the rest of them without effort after his show in front of the guards and he also showed incredible healing capabilities .

Due to those facts, they felt that the elderly and the children would be safer if they were next to Yale . Moreover, they also wanted to express goodwill towards Yale, and they felt that if some of the children were to obtain some pointers of him, it would be a joyful event .

Yale knew about the intentions of those three families, but he didn't mind about going inside the carriage at all .

"So, your birthday is next week?"

Yale was speaking with the two daughters of the skinny man while ignoring the rest of the children and the elders in the carriage .

After all, the only ones with a relation with Shirk were those of the skinny man family, and the elderly woman of the family didn't speak a lot because she felt deep respect for Yale after he healed the skinny man .

"Yes!"

The little girl who was about to turn ten grew close to Yale after the later saved her father previously . Yale remembered about Wyba when he saw her acting like a spoiled girl, so he was thinking of teaching her a bit after her birthday .

Yale had already recovered almost all his memories, so his teaching skills were those that could even make that Law Master, and Law Gods wanted to learn something from him .

Some teaching of Yale for that little girl would be enough to change her life . At least, it would be impossible for her to be inferior to anyone else in that escort team since even the strongest escort was still at the Apprentice Rank and there was no way that someone who Yale helped would end at such a low level .

"My birthday is next month!"

The other daughter of the skinny man was thirteen almost fourteen, and despite being more developed than her sister, she was still a kid in Yale's eyes .

That girl had been too close to Yale since they started the travel . Yale could understand her intentions since she used to hug Yale's arm at any chance and put it between her developing chest .

However, her efforts were doomed to failure because although Yale had got rid of the curse, he couldn't think of a little girl as a romantic target . Although he always treated children well, that was as a big brother or a father at most; Yale couldn't see them as women at all, and there was no way he could felt something romantic for them .

Thus, for Yale, the other girl acting like that was just a child trying to act like an adult and nothing more .

"I see . As a birthday present, I may give you two a bit of help with your training, what do you think?"

Everyone, regardless of being inside or outside the carriage, heard Yale's words and the reactions differed . The two girls hugged Yale in thanks, the grandmother of the two girls smiled, their parents outside the carriage wanted to cry of happiness, the children of the other families felt jealousy, and the adults regretted having failed to establish a better relationship with Yale from the first moment .

As for the guards, they hoped to become someday an expert like Yale and be capable of making girls hug them when they offered some pointers .

A week after that conversation, the situation hadn't changed at all, but the little girl was expecting her birthday as she would finally be able to start training .

She was the youngest of the group, so she was the only one among the children who haven't started to train . The others were mostly 1-star mortals or 2-star mortals, so for a someone like Yale there wasn't a big difference, but those kids treasured every bit of strength they could obtain .

The carriage stopped at night like they did every day . The horses were already at their limits by stopping only twice each day, so there was no way they could skip a stop .

The escorts were all patrolling near the camp made by the families, and they took turns to eat a bit before returning to work .

Of course, Yale didn't need to do something like that and was sat with the members of the three families although he wasn't eating anything because he didn't need to do it at all .

Moreover, even if he wanted to eat for pleasure, he wouldn't want the few supplies those families had since Yale had more than enough food stored . Yale had even given some extra food to the two girls when no one watched because he felt that it would be bad to eat so little with their ages .

The other kids also needed it, but Yale wasn't an altruistic person, and unless they were in danger of dying or suffering some permanent harm, he wouldn't act in their behalf .

In fact, he had been controlling the Life Law to improve the health of the grandmother of those two kids, since she was also someone who helped Shirk and Driwna in the past .

"Only two more hours!"

The little girl was extremely happy because she had born soon after midnight, and the protection would disappear at the same hour .

Usually, she would be sleeping at that time, but since that would be the moment that she would lose the World's Protection and would also be the moment she would be able to start practicing a Path, she was unable to sleep at all .

Yale was waiting with his eyes closed . Waiting for the undesirable guests that had been following them from the first day and if Yale's guess was correct, they were waiting for the little girl to lose the World's Protection before attacking .

After all, if they harmed her by mistake, they would end in a dire state, so it wasn't a bad idea waiting a bit if they knew that it was almost her birthday, but that would only mean that they had been targeting that group from a lot before they departed .

"It is already time . "

Yale said that in the exact moment the World's Protection disappeared from the little girl . Usually, it was difficult to know it with such exactitude, but Yale was the son of the world's creator and with his authority, knowing that information was a child's play .

"Really?"

The girl trusted completely in Yale, so although she wasn't sure exactly when the World's Protection would disappear, she believed that the moment Yale spoke would the correct time .

"Yes . I will start to teach you soon, but first I need to deal with some trash . "

Hearing Yale's words, the leader of the escorts neared them .

"Boss, we can clean the trash left after the dinner, you don't need to worry . "

They never saw Yale cleaning anything, so they were shocked by his words, but Yale just laughed a bit before speaking .

"I am not speaking that trash . We are surrounded by bandits . They are the trash . "

The faces of everyone changed as they had been unable to detect anything since those bandits were using fragments of Stealth Stones . They were far less effective than the ones in the lizardmen tribe, but for hiding from a bunch of guys who the strongest was at the Apprentice Rank, was more than enough .

"So, there is someone with good perception . Maybe you are at the Expert Rank? Why are you traveling with those weaklings? Give up . We have twenty members at the Expert Rank and more than thirty at the Practitioner Rank . You can't win . "

Yale knew very well about their levels, but for Yale, the Expert Rank and the Apprentice Rank was almost the same .

"You are just attacking because a man sold their information in exchange of joining your group . You don't dare to go near the Death Mountain, nor to openly attack a town for fear to the Death God and the government . However, kidnapping people to sell them as slaves is alright for you as long it is outside the town . "

Yale read their mind and exposed everything openly which made the other party hesitate, and the escorts and members of the family to burn with rage while cursing the one who sold them .

"So, what if you know? Join us and live under our orders or live the rest of your life as a slave!"

Yale started to laugh loudly .

"Why are you laughing?"

The leader of the bandits felt that there was something strange with Yale's behavior .

"You fear the Death God, but threatened me, what a joke . Listen well . The Death God doesn't exist anymore, and the reason for that is me . "

A mighty Life Aura surrounded Yale's body which levitated as his hair and eyes changed their color .
