Chapter 228: Yale’s Understanding of the True Empire

Yale and Aiwai were sat at the inner garden of their house; Yale wanted to explain everything to her, but there was no need to do it just beside the barrier where they meet.

“So, this is the situation. The Revgen Empire is really in problems.”

Aiwai nodded after Yale finished explaining the current situation of the Revgen Empire to her. However, she didn’t have any feeling towards the Revgen Empire; if it weren’t because Yale and Wyba had been implicated, she wouldn’t even bother to learn about it.

“The Revgen Empire is the strongest among the three countries of our continent; if the Revgen Empire falls, the other two will follow it, and there would be no place for us in the world.”

The other continents of their world would still be a foreign territory for them, so losing their continent was the same as losing their place in the world. Of course, that was in the case that they would manage to escape alive without being enslaved because that so-called True Empire didn’t have any intention to spare the life of some people and exile them.

“Do you think they will attack the Anpaes Kingdom after finishing with the Revgen Empire?”

Aiwai hadn’t expected that part. Although she had never been someone too attached to the Anpaes Kingdom and was currently sealed inside the Storage Space, she didn’t want to lose her place to return after being released when her curse had been solved.

“After finishing with the Revgen Empire? They have already tried to obtain the Anpaes Kingdom before trying to act against the Revgen Empire. Do you think that the eldest prince, who did that to you, would have been able to rebel against the Anpaes Kingdom without any external help? He wasn’t that smart. Moreover, that vengeful spirit wouldn’t have been that kind to him to let him be so much conscious after possessing him.”

It was the so-called True Empire that acted as a support for the eldest son of Paku and aided him in the plans for the rebellion.

Yale had learned that from the memories of the three traitors of the Larken Clan that the True Empire wanted to unify the whole continent under their rule and their first step had been cheating a foolish prince to betray his own kingdom and kill the king.

Even those vengeful spirits were just pawns on the True Empire’s plan; they had been all manipulated from the shadows. The plans were that after the eldest prince succeeded in obtaining the Anpaes Kingdom, a war will start to the Zuatania Republic at the same time as there was a civil war on the Revgen Empire after weakening all the noble clans with backstabs and treason.

Finally, after the Anpaes Kingdom conquered the Zuatania Republic, the Anpaes Kingdom will surrender all the territories to the True Empire. At that moment the whole continent would belong to the True Empire.

Sadly for them, Liye had broken all their plans in the Anpaes Kingdom, but they didn’t even know about it because they had cut any connection to avoid their relationship being discovered. They knew that there was a crown prince that was supported by the king, but they thought that the king was controlled by a vengeful spirit and that Sebe was the eldest prince who worked for them. They had never thought that their plans had been destroyed.

After all, having any contact with the Anpaes Kingdom had a huge risk of having their true plan unveiled, and if such a big plan was discovered, there were a lot of chances the whole continent would ally to battle against the True Empire, or they could even call reinforces from another world.

Yale still didn’t know who was the mastermind behind everything, but he had a guess based on his intuition and the information he managed to obtain until that moment.

Liye had destroyed the souls of all the invaders that planned the invasion in ancient times, but he had no way to confirm that those who had died before he arrived had their souls destroyed. There was still a chance that someone managed to reincarnate and had been laying down until recovering enough power to trying to invade the continent again.

If that invader had been reborn in their world, it would have been very difficult to detect it.

The plan of True Empire differed from the invasion of ancient times, but in the end was still an invasion to the continent.

That was the only option Yale could think because he was sure that besides someone related to the invaders of ancient times, no one would have had the certainty to make those vengeful spirits work for them nor having that confidence in that they would hand over everything to the True Empire after conquering the Zuatania Republic.

That ancient war was something like a legend to the few who knew about it and didn’t believe it completely. No one would expect another invasion and less made in that way that seemed more an internal war.

After hearing that the True Empire was behind the eldest prince who left her soul in that state, Aiwai felt an immense hatred towards every member of the True Empire.

“You should have started by that part. Anyone who is on the same side that the one who did this to me would need to suffer a painful death.”

Aiwai had never been a softie who pitied her enemies, she was just a lovable sister to Yale and Wyba, to her enemies she was ruthless and never hesitated to kill. In fact, her only regret was being unable to exit herself to put an arrow in the heads of the members of that True Empire.

“I will transfer to here everything you need, but I need that you craft to us all the weapons and armors you can create. The same applied for food, create the best grade food you can. In fact, if you can reach the sage stage in those areas it would be better; for this war, we need to nurture an army of people that have our trust. However, I don’t know how much time we will have, so it would be better to give everyone the best.”

Aiwai wasn’t expecting that Yale had intentions to create an army as he had never shown interest in being a leader of any power.

“How many members have that army of yours?”

Yale scratched a bit his head before reply.

“Without counting Wyba, you and myself, two members, maybe we can say three… I have more people in mind, but currently, just three of them are with me.”

Aiwai didn’t know if laugh because Yale had the smallest army of the world or comfort him for his problems creating the army. However, she understood that it wasn’t that easy finding person worthy of trust, so their situation wasn’t like a normal army.

Of course those members Yale said were Lar and Durgan, as for the third one, he decided to include Herken since he had a good character and had already obtained a good improvement of bloodline thanks to Yale. Moreover, Herken’s personality wasn’t bad at all.

Yale was planning two different type of people for that army. For one side, those who Yale really trusted; he would spare no effort in helping them to increase their strength. On the other hand, there were those who could be trusted, but Yale didn’t plan to spend a lot of them; in an army, they could be called the cannon fodder. He would give good weapons and armors to them, but he wouldn’t waste too many resources either.

Usually, the noble clans and the Imperial Family would be the ones sending armies, but Yale couldn’t trust them since the traitors had already infiltrated. Since the True Empire was making an army with traitors that would weaken any plans of the noble families, Yale was planning to do the same and gather those who are truly loyal.

The True Empire thought of destroying those armies from the inside, so the best solution was using an army that couldn’t be destroyed from the inside.

Yale wanted to recruit more people from the noble clans, but he didn’t want people like the guy who said that he and Lar were traitors, that kind of fools weren’t needed as they would be only a burden.

“I will wait a bit more to recruit more people. For now, I will go to bring Wyba here, try to not explain too much to her. Although it isn’t a secret and she didn’t understand it very well, I want you two to have a happy time together as long as you can.”

When Yale was about to leave, Aiwai spoke again.

“Don’t you also want to have a happy life as long as you can?”

Yale turned his head towards Aiwai and smiled.

“I can’t. If I waste my time, the True Empire will succeed. I need to act, the most I can do is letting you two enjoy the life while I make my preparations.”

After saying that, Yale left the Storage Space and returned to the outside world.
