Chapter 258: The Portal to the Imperial Palace

In Lashar’s mansion in Larken City, Lashar was sat peacefully drinking tea when Yale with Wyba on his back appeared without notice.

“Lashar, I need to meet Revgen, and it should be as soon as possible.”

Lashar spit out her tea when she heard Yale’s request.

“Do you want to meet Emperor Revgen?”

Lashar understood that Yale should have some relationship with Revgen from his past life to ask to meet him in such casual way. However, at that moment, Revgen was someone that was a legend to most people, besides the heads of the noble clans and the imperial family no one else in the Revgen Empire was sure about if he was still alive or not.

Thus, being shocked was the most normal first reaction after hearing someone asking to meet Revgen like if that was something ordinary that could be done at any moment one wished.

“That is the only way to save my sister.”

Yale saw that Lashar looked towards Wyba.

“Not Wyba, another sister.”

Lashar nodded after hearing Yale’s clarification; she could guess that Yale had gone to Nacesai City to something related to that sister.

“I can accompany you to the Imperial Palace; it is a good chance to speak with Revgen about the True Empire.”

Sharing information with Revgen was a good thing. Usually, even Lashar would have a rough time to see Revgen and would only speak with someone else who held some authority. After all, Revgen didn’t manage any matters of the Revgen Empire unless those matters were of utmost importance.

However, the current situation of the Revgen Empire due to the threat of the True Empire was something extremely important, so it would be weird if Revgen himself wouldn’t implicate in the mater.

Moreover, Lashar believed that since Yale should have some relationship with Revgen, the later would be eager to speak with them.

“Then, don’t lose more time. I already wasted time waiting for everything to be settled before asking you to go meet Revgen.”

Yale wasn’t as unreasonable as to ask Lashar to leave alone unknown people and a beast horde to accompany him to meet Revgen, but once everything had been settled, he had no patience to wait any more time.

“You are really impatient. Usually, I would need to request the meeting and wait about a week before obtaining permission to speak with Revgen or someone designated by him. However, this is an emergency situation, and you aren’t an ordinary person, so I think they will forgive us for skipping the formalities. Follow me. We have a portal leading to the Imperial Palace.”

All the noble clans had a portal leading to the Imperial Palace, which could only be used by of the heads of the noble clans.

“Wyba, enter to the Storage Space for a while.”

When Wyba heard the Spiritual Sense message, she nodded and let Yale put her in the Storage Space. Since she was able to be with Aiwai inside the Storage Space, Wyba didn’t hate it like before when she couldn’t do anything.

Yale didn’t dare to leave Wyba alone in Larken City and wasn’t sure if the people of the Imperial Family would put any problems if she were also with them after crossing the portal.

After all, that portal was supposed to be used just by the clan head of the Larken Clan; it was already a problem for Lashar letting Yale accompany him, so Yale didn’t want to increase the difficulty of meeting Revgen by adding Wyba to their group.

After all, Yale’s presence could be justified, as he was who discovered the traitors in the Larken Clan and once Revgen knew about his true identity, there wouldn’t be any opposition to him using the portal, but there was really no reason to let Wyba accompany them.

The portal was on the underground of the mansion, and it was quite hidden; Yale had been unable to notice of its existence until that moment.

That portal was a permanent one, and couldn’t compare with the one quickly created to go to Nacesai City. In fact, the portal to Nacesai City had already ceased to exist after Yale’s group returned.

“To activate this portal is needed a token that only the heads of the clans have. Moreover, those tokens would be destroyed if we die and while we are alive only we are able to use them, so activating the portals connecting the noble clans with the Imperial Palace would be impossible for anyone that hasn’t been acknowledged as the head of a noble clan by the Imperial Family.”

Yale frowned when he heard that because he didn’t want to rely upon Lashar every time he wanted to go to the Imperial Palace. Moreover, he wanted to speak with Revgen in private after solving the problem of Ange, and that would be difficult with Lashar always around.

After all, if he went using her token as the method to open the portal, he would be under her responsibility, so it would be normal if she were near him all the time.

A clan head bringing someone else to the Imperial Palace wasn’t something normal, but it wouldn’t be the first time that happens either. If someone had genuinely relevant information for the Imperial Family, the head of the clan would choose to let that person go to the Imperial Palace and tell the information directly to the Imperial Family. Of course, in such a situation, those people could only be beside their clan head, and couldn’t roam freely.

At that moment, a weird idea appeared in Yale’s mind, and he took out his Space-time Judgment Sword.

Lashar didn’t understand why Yale was taking out his sword; Yale might be her ancestor, but she was confident that Yale wouldn’t be able to beat her with his current strength. Even if taking out the sword were a threat to tell her to avoid interfering with his affairs after going to the Imperial Palace, she wouldn’t agree.

She had been waiting for so long to increase the position of her Larken Clan, and she decided that being the official supervisor of Yale in the Imperial Palace would help her to improve the impression that the Imperial Family had from the Larken Clan.

After all, Yale was someone who was incredibly powerful in his past life, and being her supervisor when he had turned weak due to reincarnation would surely make the people of the Imperial Family look at the Larken Clan with other eyes.

However, Yale pointed the sword towards the portal and not towards her; that action didn’t have any sense on Lashar’s eyes, but she was forced to swallow the words she was about to say about stopping wasting time with nonsense because the portal activated after Yale pointed his sword towards it.

“How can this happen?”

Lashar couldn’t believe that someone else had activated the portal that only she should be able to activate.

Yale smiled when he saw that the portal activated. He felt strange that Revgen didn’t prepare a method for Liye’s reincarnation to use those portals freely, and when he thought about something representative of Liye, it was without doubts the Space-time Judgment Sword.

The Space-time Judgment Sword was as a master key for the portals connecting to the Imperial Palace, no matter in which noble clan the portal was situated. Using that sword, the authority of Yale over those portals wasn’t inferior to the one held by Revgen.

“You have your token, and I have my sword. Let’s go to the Imperial Palace.”

Yale acted as if it was normal that he could activate the portal at will and Lashar could only sigh as Yale had destroyed her plan.

“At least I will be with him, and we have already wiped out the traitors of our clan, so our reputation should still improve a bit.”

While thinking that, Lashar followed Yale to the portal and both of them disappeared from Larken City.

In a dark room situated in the most secure place of the whole Imperial Palace, a handsome man who had been meditating suddenly opened his eyes and smiled.

“So, you finally came to see this old friend of yours. It seems that my time of being shut inside the Imperial Palace is coming to an end. Those traitors of the True Empire have been too cocky all this time I have been secluded. Now that Liye returned, it is time to teach them that no one can threaten our continent and that in my Empire no one can commit such crimes without being harshly punished.”

Revgen stood up, and after a lot of years, he left his room; until that moment, those who wanted to see or speak with him had always gone to that room, he had never left that room to meet someone.

However, after sensing that the Space-time Judgment Sword had activated a portal leading to the Imperial Palace, Revgen decided to go out. After all, he hadn’t seen his friend for thousands of years, and he was quite eager to speak with Liye again after so much time.
