Last Wish System

Chapter 250: Rescuing Ange

Yale reappeared in front of the altar before the paleness of his face faded; it didn't matter how exhausted he was at that moment, he wanted to rescue Ange as soon as possible.

His father noticed that he was pale, but he didn't ask anything about it; he had already decided that both of them hadn't any relationship once Ange was safe.

"Did you find a way to avoid the danger for her?"

That was the only topic he wanted to speak with Yale, and Yale thought in the same way.

"Yes, but the measure is only temporal, and I need to take her to Imperial City to ensure her safety; I will just delay the retaliation for now. Of course, she needs to come with me."

Yale told the truth, but even if he didn't need to take Ange with him, he would still look for a method to keep Ange with him; he didn't want her to be with someone who let her be kidnapped because he put the safety of the rest of his family in front of Ange's safety.

He didn't think that his father saving the rest of the family was an evil deed because it was normal thinking about saving the most one can save.

However, personally Yale didn't want Ange to be put in danger by anyone even if all those other wives and children from his father were to die due to that, so he was still angry about his father's actions. He thought as that had happened once it could happen twice, so there was no way he would let Ange live with her father, or she might again turn into a decoy to save others.

For Yale, not all the lives had the same value, and Ange's life was far more valuable than the entire Roanmad Clan. Yale never considered himself a righteous person; he just acted in a way to benefit himself and those who are important to him. However, he didn't like to harm innocent people without a good reason even if he wouldn't hesitate to kill people as long he had enough reasons for doing it.

He always felt that those people who always wanted to differentiate everything only between rightful and evil were too narrow-minded because in a lot of cases that wasn't objective nor limited to those two options.

Yale's father sighed after hearing Yale because he didn't know if he was telling the truth or only trying to cheat him, but there was no way he could disagree since he didn't have any other way to save Ange.

"Alright. I know that Ange would also choose to be with you if she was conscious. She had always sided with you no matter how I tried to separate her from you. I truly hate you, you killed my wife and stole my daughter."

Yale was seriously thinking in punch his father face after hearing that; if it hadn't been for Ange taking care of him, maybe he would have no emotions at all with such a gloomy childhood.

He knew very well that the lack of interactions with other people had affected his personality a lot, and if he had had a more normal family, he wouldn't have had such social problems when he was a child. Thankfully, the time he lived with Aiwai helped him to partially solve his problems although he still couldn't consider himself a very social person.

"I also hate you. Probably this is the only thing besides saving Ange in which we think the same."

After saying that, Yale put his hand in Ange's body and moved her body to the area of the Storage Space with the time stopped.

Although he had already expected it, the sub-quest didn't finish after he had put Ange inside the Storage Space because the root of her problem wasn't solved yet.

His time limit remained the same, and it was the time he had before that time-stopped area faded; he truly wondered if the system had known how the things would be since the first moment.

However, when Yale checked the Quest Menu, he found that another sub-quest appeared even if the previous one was still active; that was the first time two sub-quests were active at the same time.

"Destroy the Enslaving Altar Formation. Reward: Information about the plan of the True Empire in the Revgen Empire."

Yale looked towards the Enslaving Altar Formation; he wished to destroy it even without the quest, but that would alert the members of the True Empire, so it would be difficult escaping after destroying it, and he couldn't afford a random teleportation with his time limit to save Ange.

"We shall destroy this thing, but without allowing those bastards to detect us."

Yale's father was surprised that Yale said that, but when he thought of the fate of the clan leader and those above, he truly wanted to destroy that thing to avoid people being so easily enslaved.

"I have a method to destroy it without provoking much disturbance, but escaping afterward will still be difficult, and although I don't know where you put Ange, she is with you right now. Get out of here right now. I will deal with this thing while you escape with Ange, change to that soldier's appearance and get out. I hope to never see you again."

He felt guilty for having used Ange as a decoy to save his other family members, so he was ready to take the hard path for Ange's safety. He hated Yale, but he also knew that Yale was the only one who could ensure Ange's safety.

Of course, although he hated Yale, he didn't want to kill him nor something like that; he just wanted to forget about him and never see him again. The ones he truly wanted to kill were those of the True Empire and all the traitors of the Roanmad Clan.

"Alright, but don't kill yourself, Ange would be very sad if you died to protect her."

Yale started to walk towards the door while he spoke. He knew that although Ange had always sided with him instead of siding with her father, she didn't want anything bad to happen to her father. Knowing her personality, she probably wouldn't even be upset for her father using her as a decoy to save others.

Of course, although Yale hated his father, he didn't want him to die. After all, he had always been neglected by him, but his father also never tried to suppress him nor make the things difficult for him.

Even when he was told that the clan wouldn't check his talents, that was something that benefitted Yale and since his father knew that Yale was a reincarnated expert that was clearly done on purpose to help him even if that was probably an order from that expert who his father spoke about.

"I don't plan to die. I have a method to escape from here, although it will only work on myself. Don't underestimate me!"

He indeed received an item to save his own life; he just needed to shatter a token, and he would be teleported to a random position in the Revgen Empire, but that would only work for himself, it was impossible to carry anyone else with him.

However, he wasn't sure that the item would work in the area they were at that moment because it was isolated from the outside; to use that token without worries, he would need to at least leave the barrier in front of the stairs. Thus, he was really risking his life because if he failed to run away quick enough or the token didn't work inside the barrier, he would be caught by the True Empire.

Yale didn't reply to his father; he just rushed his way to the outside hoping that his father succeeded in breaking the altar. In fact, he wasn't sure if the quest would be completed if his father was the one who destroyed the altar, but he would rather fail the quest and lose that information than put Ange in danger.

Yale ignored all the enslaved prisoners, but he put in his mind that someday he needed to save them from their fates and send them to reincarnation.

Sadly, that would never happen; when someone broke an Enslaving Altar Formation, those who were supporting it would have their souls destroyed at the same time, but neither Yale nor his father knew about it.

Yale changed his appearance again to look like the soldier he had killed to infiltrate the city and left the prison as if anything had happened inside.

While he left the prison, he was wondering how the beast horde and the golem army had affected that city, but as there wasn't anyone near the prison, it seemed that the distraction had worked well and no one noticed that a soldier spent so much time inside the prison.
