Chapter 111: Information About the Anpaes Kingdom

Yale stood up and looked to Tar while feeling that had grown quite a bit after the breakthrough.

Yale’s face still looked like a fifteen or sixteen years old guy, but his height had reached the standard for an average adult, that growth was also due to the formation effects.

“If you have already finished let’s leave.”

Tar didn’t want to speak too much with Yale; he wasn’t able to say anything about the sealed past life’s memories to him as he couldn’t break the promise to the Mysterious Expert and couldn’t avoid feeling guilty even knowing that it was for Yale’s sake.

Yale also didn’t want to speak useless words, so he left and returned to the Frost Wolf Company main building after asking for some books about the Anpaes Kingdom and went directly to his room to start reading them.

Yale planned to leave for the Anpaes Kingdom once he had completed the first sub-quest of the new Main Chain Quest, so he needed to gather all the information possible about the kingdom and the half-beasts who lived there.

There was a royalty in the Anpaes Kingdom, formed only by those with powerful bloodlines belonging to lion-type beasts.

Anyone with a lion-type bloodline will be considered like a noble even if that person didn’t have any relationship with the royal family and anyone without a lion-type beast bloodline had zero chances to get better status.

As for someone with a lion-type bloodline, marrying someone with a different bloodline was a taboo, and anyone who did it would be sentenced to the death penalty.

The Anpaes Kingdom was just the opposite to the Zuatania Republic, in Anpaes bloodline was the only thing that matters, even talented half-beast would be ignored instead of recruited like in the Revgen Empire.

Of course, any half-beast would still be considered superior to any ordinary human; to the half-beasts living in the Anpaes Kingdom, humans were inferior beings.

They considered themselves evolved humans thanks to their bloodlines and thus superior to the normal humans.

It was the truth that half-beasts had some advantages due to their bloodlines, but they also had too many side-effects, so they were only seeing the reality in the most convenient way for them. They couldn’t be really considered a more advanced life-form, just a different one.

However, due to their bloodline elitist train of thought, they have a great amount of respect for the Revgen Empire as they were also governed by powerful bloodlines, even if those bloodlines weren’t from beasts.

Furthermore, even if the people in Anpaes wouldn’t admit it, the bloodlines in the governing powers of the Revgen Empire didn’t have any side effect and thus based on the Anpaes Kingdom’s rules the Noble Clans and the Revgen Imperial Family should be considered superior to them.

Therefore, the relationship the Anpaes Kingdom had with the Revgen Empire was far better than the one it had with the Zuatania Republic, although they would never admit they were inferior, they wouldn’t try to pick any enmity with the governing powers in the Revgen Empire.

If Yale had his Zhan Clan bloodline awakened, he would have an easier time traveling through the Anpaes Kingdom, but sadly, Yale had no clues about how to awaken the bloodline, and he also didn’t want to reveal his identity as a Zhan Clan member.

The only good point was that Yale also had a Frost Wolf bloodline, so he could use Shape Shift to fake his identity as a half-beast and avoid catching attention. However, even if his bloodline was extremely pure, its level was low, provoking that his status wouldn’t be too high in the eyes of the half-beasts.

The degree of purity and strength were also important factors to have status, not only the type of bloodline.

Yale excelled in purity to the point that he didn’t have any side-effects from the bloodline and didn’t turn into a half-beast. Strictly looking from the Anpaes Kingdom’s point of view, Yale was a truly evolved human, but they wouldn’t admit it because his bloodline strength was too weak.

Even if his bloodline had the potential to grow more thanks to Wyba, in the eyes of the others it was a mediocre bloodline strength.

Yale didn’t dare to appear with his human appearance even showing the bloodline power; it would be too abnormal as people who weren’t transformed by the bloodline power shouldn’t get the bloodline, at most those people get the body strengthened by the bloodline before it disappears. What Yale did was something only possible with the help of the Last Wish System. Of course, if the one who absorbed the blood were an expert at Yale’s past life’s level, it would also be possible.

The only exception to that was the half-beasts who managed to improve their bloodlines and awaken a divine beast power. They would be able to regain a human form and switch freely between that appearance and the half-beast one, but that would only be possible for those who had been born as half-beasts, those transformed didn’t have the capability of improving their bloodlines in any way.

However, a divine beast bloodline was something far too strange, in the books appeared like something from legends. Although it seemed that the Anpaes Kingdom founder had a divine beast bloodline, most people doubted it and thought it was exaggerated to increase the royal family’s fame.

Yale had the intuition that divine beasts existed, and thus those bloodlines should exist. That was because he had the feeling that he had met some divine beasts in his past life, but he wasn’t able to remember it well.

Yale checked the mythology books to learn more about those divine beasts. He was curious but the main reason was that most half-beasts tribes and clans adored those divine beasts like gods, it would be too weird if Yale didn’t know anything about them when faking his identity as a half-beast.

In the following days, Yale lived a bookworm lifestyle while reading all books which could be useful for his travel, the information in the system’s database increased a lot thanks to that.

After he finished reading all the books, Yale resumed his work as the Silent Healer; people thought he was secluded to reach the 1-star Novice Rank, so he was able to have some days without work.

Yale also didn’t forget to practice his Spiritual Sense at any occasion he had, but he felt that his dexterity was too weak compared to his other stats, making more difficult control the Spiritual Sense as he wanted.

Yale had tried to look for an archery master because that would be an excellent mean to increase his dexterity and he wanted to improve his archery, but there wasn’t anyone at the apprentice level or higher in the whole Trade City. Archery wasn’t a profitable job, so most people who practiced it were like Yale and didn’t reach the apprentice level even if they had learned archery.

Normal archery wasn’t useful for Yale to improve his current dexterity, but if there wasn’t anyone to teach him, reaching the Apprentice stage seemed impossible.

Yale had never reached an Apprentice stage by himself; it had always been the system triggering it. Although Yale had reached two Expert stages by himself, which was far more difficult, he was clueless about how to achieve the Apprentice stage for archery.

In the following year, the growth of the Frost Wolf Company and the Thousand Roses Company turned a legend in the city.

Both companies had allied before reaching the platinum rank, but their growth speeded up even more after that. Oscro was a genius in managing a company, but Julie was even more heaven-defying than him when managing a company and manipulating people.

With their combined effort, the allied companies reached the diamond rank; the status the founders had obtained with that was only inferior to the elders of the Zuatania Merchant Association.

They felt that it was better to fuse the companies fully after obtaining such a high status. The official name of the company after completely merging was finally decided to be Thousand Frost Wolves Company.

The Silent Healer and Wyba turned even more famous than before due to Julie’s efforts with the fan clubs.

Yale was even scared about how the fanatics had grown, Julie’s prowess to control people was top-notch, the people in the fan clubs almost adored them.

Yale was fearing that Julie was planning to start some type of cult using him and Wyba as the public faces. Initially, that should have been impossible as they were only popular, but nothing to adore. However, Julie’s skills in manipulating information and the people train of thought were enough to win Tar’s praise.

Yale’s work also reduced thanks to that, Julie wanted to make Yale’s services more exclusive, and as they had obtained more healers, Yale only appeared for those who were really wealthy and paid exorbitant sums to be treated by him.

Yale felt a bit bad about it, but when he heard Julie’s explanation, he could only accept it.

“I know you will leave someday. If you disappear from one day to another, a lot of problems will happen, making you disappear slowly will turn you more mysterious, and people won’t find strange if you didn’t appear for a long time.”

That day, Yale had sworn that would never become Julie’s enemy, he could beat her in a battle, but her capabilities with words to manipulate people were scarier than any battle prowess.
