Chapter 280: Kurk Clan’s Head

Yale didn’t have any sheath for the Space-time Judgment Sword, so it was possible to see it perfectly despite not being wielded.

Kermu was really scared of the reaction of his master due to Yale having the edge of the sword unsheathed; that was a huge disrespect for his master. Sadly, Kermu didn’t think about the sword when they were on the way to the meeting room, or he would have told Yale to store the sword before meeting with the Clan Head of the Kurk Clan.

“That sword…”

The Clan Head was trying to say something, but Kermu interrupted him.

“Sorry, master. He didn’t have any bad intentions, please forgive him and punish me instead.”

Kermu felt that it was his fault for forgetting telling Yale about the sword, so he planned to bear the consequences. He felt that his master wouldn’t punish him too hard since it wasn’t anything too severe and Kermu was important to the Kurk Clan, but Yale wasn’t from the Kurk Clan, and part of the Zhan Clan wanted him dead, so Kermu wasn’t sure if his master would punish Yale softly or let him half-dead.

“Shut up!”

Kermu was frightened to death for his master shout and fell to his knees; he had never seen his master so angry. The Clan Head was a 9-star Sage Rank expert; there was no way Kermu could oppose to him even though it was only his voice.

“Let me check that sword.”

Kermu thought that his master wanted to use Yale’s sword to harm the later, but he was without strength to reply. On the other hand, Yale just wielded the sword and showed it to Kermu’s master.

“It is the same…”

As the Clan Head of the Kurk Clan, he knew many secrets that no one else in the Kurk Clan knew, and the Space-time Judgement Sword was part of that knowledge. Kermu’s master knew very well that the Space-time Judgement Sword was a soul-bound weapon and that only the owner of the weapon could wield it.

Thus, Yale’s identity was clear as water since he was wielding the Space-time Judgement Sword.

“Junior pays respects to the Ancestor!”

Kermu’s eyes almost popped out when he saw his master kneeling in front of Yale while saying those words.

“Ancestor? How did Yale become my master’s ancestor? If that is true, he is also my ancestor, but Yale doesn’t even have the Space Bloodline, and he is younger than me, so he can’t he be an ancestor of our clan.”

Kermu’s mind was working at top speed, but he felt like if he had fallen into an illusion because the situation was far too unbelievable.

“What is your name?”

Yale wasn’t surprised for the fact that Kermu’s master had discovered his identity thanks to the Space-time Judgment Sword. Seeing Yale acting like if the situation was normal, Kermu’s shock increased even more.

That was nothing new to Ange and Nurvey, but Serka was also shocked by the scene before her eyes. However, she didn’t think about the reasons because she believed that even if Kermu’s master didn’t explain it, Yale would do it. Moreover, seeing that Nurvey and Ange weren’t surprised, that only reinforced her believing that she would understand it later.

“This junior’s name is Krienek. I had heard of Ancestor from the previous Clan Head, and I worked protecting your beliefs with my little capability. I seek the Ancestor’s forgiving if I have done something wrong.”

Krienek was a proud man, and Kermu knew that he didn’t act so humble even in front of the elders of the Imperial Family. Kermu guessed that his master’s reactions were related with Yale’s sword, which was a legacy obtained in the Special Realm, but he couldn’t understand how that would turn Yale into an ancestor of the Kurk Clan.

“Compared with the Zhan Clan, you are controlling the Kurk Clan better, but there are too many traitors inside. I won’t blame you for that, but the traitors must be exterminated without exception.”

Yale forgot about the presence of Kermu and Serka and went directly to the point after Krienek had recognized him.

“I know that there are some people with rebellious desires, but I have no proofs to punish them.”

Krienek wasn’t a fool and noticed that there were some people in the Kurk Clan that wanted to oppose him, but he didn’t have proofs of anything, and there was a great elder with a strength just a bit lower than his own who was eying to the clan head’s position. Thus, he couldn’t act rashly, or the clan would all support that great elder.

“There isn’t any need for proofs. I can tell if they are traitors or not looking to their souls. If someone dares to say anything, I will deal with them; you just need to follow my orders, and everything would end well.”

Yale noticed that Krienek wasn’t like Lashar and didn’t have a complete control of the clan since he couldn’t act as he pleased without reasons.

“There is a great elder who is at the 8-star Sage Rank who is always eying to obtain my position; he would oppose frontally to anything I try to do. Is Ancestor sure that it is possible to deal with him? It isn’t like I didn’t trust Ancestor’s might, but after reincarnation, Ancestor has yet to recover all the power you wield before reincarnation.”

Krienek could notice Yale’s level, and although it was an unbelievable level for Yale’s age, it was still too weak even compared with Krienek himself.

“Wait! Someone, please explain this situation, I don’t understand anything.”

Kermu finally couldn’t resist his urge to ask for an explanation. If it weren’t because he was sure that Yale hadn’t been in the Kurk Clan before, he would have thought that his master and Yale had prepared some random lines to turn him mad.

“Kermu, kneel to our Ancestor and ask your wife to do the same. Ancestor is a great being that existed in the ancient era and created the Kurk Clan, the Zhan Clan, and the Larken Clan.”

Kermu’s master felt that his disciple was too disrespectful towards Yale, and the same applied to Serka. Krienek could tolerate it when they didn’t know Yale’s identity, but after knowing it, he thought that they should have knelt immediately.

Of course, he wouldn’t ask Nurvey to do it, especially because she was from the Imperial Family and wasn’t surprised in the least by the situation, which indicated that she already knew Yale’s identity.

As for Ange, Krienek didn’t know her identity, but since she had come with Nurvey and Yale, and she also seemed to know Yale’s identity from beforehand, Krienek didn’t plan to say anything to her.

The faces of Kermu and Serka paled because after all the conversation and that explanation even a fool would understand that Yale was a reincarnated expert. Moreover, Yale’s true identity was the ancestor of their clans; such made the situation even more awkward.

“No need to kneel. My friends didn’t need to kneel towards me or towards anyone else. If someone tries to force my friends to kneel, I wouldn’t forgive that person.”

Yale put a hidden threat to Krienek showing that for Yale, Kermu was far more valuable than the current Clan Head of the Kurk Clan. He did it hoping that Kermu would obtain more benefits in the future.

“As you should have already guessed, I am the reincarnation of the ancestor of those three noble clans, and this sword that I recovered in the Special Realm is a soul-bound weapon that only I can wield. I didn’t know about my identity back then in the Special Realm; I only recovered those memories afterward.”

Kermu and Serka were still shocked, but hearing how Yale spoke to them, they understood that Yale didn’t plan to distance from them due to his identity. A lot of people would want to befriend you when you turned strong, but only those who supported you in your weakest times were true friends.

Krienek’s face was pale after hearing Yale because he never expected that his disciple was a friend of his ancestor, but after thinking of how Kermu tried to protect Yale when he thought that Krienek was angry to Yale due to the sword, Krienek noticed that he had been careless.

“I am sorry, Ancestor. I never thought that you were friends with my disciple. It is my honor to have a disciple who is Ancestor’s friend.”

While Krienek was apologizing for asking Kermu to kneel, Serka looked towards Ange.

“You are Yale’s big sister, but he is also your ancestor, how did you manage to support the shock?”

Serka had difficulties to believe that his cousin was her ancestor, but after thinking it for a bit, the situation should be even harder to endure for Ange.

“Not at all. In my past life, I were Yale’s past life’s daughter, and I controlled my reincarnation to be reborn together with him, so I wasn’t shocked at all since I knew it from the start.”

Ange replied to Serka in a loud voice, so everyone heard it, which increased the shock of Krienek, Kermu, and Serka by several folds. It was already shocking that Yale was their ancestor and thus a reincarnated expert, but to think that there was another reincarnated expert in the same room as them and that it was the reincarnation of their ancestor’s daughter, it was too difficult to believe.
