Chapter 302

Yale went out of the room where he had been sleeping and started to walk by the Imperial Palace, but the area seemed empty .

Feeling the situation strange, Yale decided to use his Spiritual Sense to check the Imperial Palace, and he found that almost everyone was in the same area .

"Weird, why is everyone in that place?"

Yale didn't understand the situation well, but he decided that he had to go to that place to confirm what was happening .

However, he didn't have the chance to do it before Revgen appeared in front of him . In the same moment that Yale used his Spiritual Sense, Revgen noticed about it and teleported to Yale's side .

"You finally woke up, quite a good timing . "

Revgen knew that Yale would need to sleep for some time after the Origin link ended, but Liye didn't tell Revgen the exact time, so no one knew when Yale would awaken from his slumber .

"Why is a good timing?"

Revgen smiled before replying .

"Tomorrow will be the anniversary of our victory against the True Empire, and there will be a big celebration . You slept for almost a whole year . "

At that moment Yale also understood that all the members of the Imperial Family should have been busy preparing everything, so they were all near the area where the anniversary celebration would take place .

"Is that celebration so important?"

Yale understood that defeating the True Empire was crucial, but the open war lasted less than a day, so he felt that it shouldn't be too relevant for the masses as probably they didn't even know about it .

"It is . The news about the war against the True Empire and the treason of the Hyeran Clan are public, and everyone knew about it . After that, the respect of the commoners towards the imperial family and the noble clans increased a lot . "

The commoners weren't too smart from the start, so it wasn't difficult for them to believe everything and regard the noble clans and the imperial family as heroes who saved everyone . Fortunately, Revgen ordered that only the truth was told because even if they had lied probably the commoners would also believe it .

"Then, let's go to see how are going those preparations, I am curious about what are you planning to do for the celebration . "

After saying those words, Yale teleported to the area where the celebration was being prepared, and Revgen followed him . Both of them appeared in a high place where they could see the whole area easily .

The area was enormous, prepared to let a lot of people from outside to attend the celebration, and there was a huge statue in the middle, but the person in which that statue was based shocked Yale .

"Hyrk?"

Yale truly didn't expect to find a statue of Hyrk in that place .

"That is right; this statue is based on Hyrk . The statue will be shown to others for the first time tomorrow and will remain in the city as part of the story of the Revgen Empire . After the ceremony, we will move it to outside the Imperial Palace to let everyone admire it . "

Yale knew that Hyrk died and that Liye helped him in his last moments, so he didn't oppose to Hyrk having a statue, but he wondered if the commoners would like it since Hyrk was a member of the Hyeran Clan .

Revgen seemed to understand Yale's thoughts as he continued explaining .

"I ensured that Hyrk's story was told without any mistakes to the commoners . The story about how the only member of the Hyeran Clan loyal to the Revgen Empire battled while disregarding his own life for saving all the children kidnaped by the True Empire . "

Without Hyrk, more than ten thousand innocent children would have died, and it was only because he acted as bait that the others escaped successfully . Moreover, Hyrk was the one who told the Imperial Family about the Hyeran Clan treason, so Hyrk was truly deserved to be considered a hero .

"I am sure that Hyrk would be happy with this situation . "

Revgen nodded to Yale's words as he had heard from Nurvey about how much Hyrk valued his pride as a noble, and the act of risking everything to save so many innocent lives was something that anyone could feel proud . Even though the name of the Hyeran Clan had been tarnished for all the eternity, Hyrk's honor wouldn't be tainted, and he would be remembered as a hero by the next generations of people of the Revgen Empire .

"In fact, Lar was the one who asked me to honor Hyrk in this way, but personally I also feel that he deserved this kind of recognition . By the way, you also have a statue, but that it is just in the main plaza of the city just beside my statue . "

There wasn't any statue of Revgen before, but after he appeared in front of the noble clans in the war, everyone thought that he needed a statue, and since he was unable to say no, Revgen didn't lose time and dragged Yale with him . Needless to say, that neither of them liked things like statues of themselves being shown in public, it didn't fit their personalities .

"Don't tell me that you are shy about others seeing you in a statue because I have already seen that real size plush of you that Nurvey had in her room and that is far more embarrassing . "

When Yale was about to reply to the fact that no one told him about the statue, Revgen added that part letting Yale without any argument for refusing the decision . In fact, it was just as Revgen said, having a statue was far better than having real size plushies of himself, but the problem was that he had both .

Yale stopped thinking about statues and looked towards the people making preparations; there was one group that caught his attention because it was huge and mainly conformed by kids .

"Those are the kids rescued from the True Empire . They had some psychological damage, so we have been helping them this last year . Now that they have recovered it is time for them to return to their homes if those still exist or we can let them serve as apprentices of servants if they didn't have any place to go and wanted to remain here . However, before, they will act tomorrow to express their gratitude to Hyrk and the other members of the rescue team for saving their lives . "

Revgen saw that Yale was looking towards the kids, so he explained the whole situation to him .

Although all the members in the rescue group agreed to let Hyrk had the highest recognition due to his sacrifice, they still had some credit in the rescue operation .

At that moment, the kids were practicing with some of the teachers that had been helping them in the last year . Of course, the kids were the ones wanting to express their thanks; those teachers were only teaching them the procedures to do it as they were too many and without any coordination, it would have been too chaotic .

Among those teachers, Yale recognized Durgan and Birgh . The two of them felt so guilty for Hyrk's death that made them decide to help those kids until they could return to their normal lives, so both volunteered to act as the teachers of those kids .

"I will go to speak with them . "

Revgen nodded, and Yale teleported towards them . Revgen didn't want to meet those juniors, but he knew that Yale had some relationship with them, so he didn't oppose Yale's intentions .

Although all the kids and teachers seemed to be in one group from a distance, they were a bit separated in groups with two teachers with each group of children .

"It has been a long time, are you two doing well?"

Everyone in that group got scared when Yale suddenly appeared before them . Yale truly liked how he could teleport freely as long as he was inside the Imperial Palace .

"Yale?"

Durgan was also shocked, but he was the first in recognizing Yale because he was the one with the closest relationship with him of all the group .

"Yes, I am Yale . Don't tell me that you forgot me?"

Durgan quickly shocked his head .

"I don't dare; I was just shocked right now . "

Durgan knew about Yale's true identity as the reincarnation of the ancestor of the Larken Clan and the truth about who killed all the higher-ups of the True Empire, so he really felt respect towards him, and was thinking that he had entrusted his sister to the correct person .

"We haven't spoken since the special realm . It is a pleasure to meet you again . "

Although Birgh had heard how Yale announced the end of the war at the same time as Revgen and knew that he had a statue just at the side of the Emperor's statue, she didn't know Yale's true identity although knew that it should be quite special .

"That is true . I was too busy and didn't have time to visit you in the Tofesh Clan . "

Yale had a good impression of her due to her relationship with the crafter of his sword, Tofesh, and remembered that Liye saw Durgan and Birgh at the end of the war, but there wasn't any exchange of words between the two parties .

"Are you really one of the three great heroes of war?"

One of the kids in the group couldn't resist the impulse to speak because he had seen Yale's statue before and since the name also matched, the kid was sure that one of the three great heroes was in front of him, so he couldn't avoid asking in shock .

Revgen, Yale, and Hyrk, those three names were publicly known as the three great heroes of war . Hyrk for his sacrifice saving the kids, Revgen for his excellent command of the army and Yale for unknown reasons, but since Revgen announced that Yale's contribution was the highest and that the exact contributions couldn't be told because involved some secrets of war, the people didn't question too much .

Moreover, once it was known that the flying wolf that rescued Hyrk's corpse wasn't loyal to Revgen but to Yale, everyone thought that there was no way Yale was simple . Those thoughts confirmed when Yale's statue was placed in the same place of Revgen statue .

Revgen feared that telling that Yale was the one who eradicated the True Empire experts would provoke problems for him since his power would be lower after awakening and it would be difficult to believe for others .
