The house of the king of the Elven Kingdom was quite big even though it wasn’t a palace, but the fact that besides Yale, Lina, and the king himself there wasn’t anyone else there made it seem bigger.

The king didn’t like having servants, his wife worked supervising the university, and his sons were still attending their lessons in the Elven University.

Usually, the home was alright for the size of their family, but at that moment, it seemed too empty.

Moreover, everyone was in silence because the king didn’t know about what topic speak without the risk of offending Yale and Line, while Yale and Lina didn’t plan to speak of anything important in front of outsiders.

It wasn’t until some hours later when the king’s wife returned followed by Nurvey, Mercer, Merumi, and Kaigur, that someone finally spoke.

“Master, you really found us!”

Mercer and Merumi spoke at the same time and were about to rush towards Yale, but when they saw Lina besides Yale, they decided to restrain themselves.

Mercer and Merumi had grown up, and they weren’t kids anymore, so they were better controlling their emotions than before.

Kaigur wasn’t especially close with Yale, so he just bowed slightly, and Nurvey was staring Lina wondering how she managed to be so close to Yale.

Nurvey had improved her social problems a lot since she was forced to become a teacher in the university, but she was still without words in front of Yale and Lina.

Yale and Lina were sat together since they reached the house, but when Lina noticed that the others were coming, she leaned towards Yale and hugged him. Of course, that was part of their plan to make the rest believe in their relationship, and Nurvey was also one of the important targets of the plan.

“I am glad that you are safe. You seem to have worked hard these ten years. Come, let me introduce you to my girlfriend, Lina. She is who saved Wyba and Aiwai.”

Mercer and Merumi felt glad that Yale found a girlfriend, although Mercer felt a bit sad for Lar and Aizu who were like sisters to him.

Nurvey’s face changes immediately after hearing Yale’s words because since Lina saved Wyba, no matter her relationship with Yale, in Nurvey’s eyes she was a great person.

Lina introduced herself and ensured to make clear that Yale’s father wanted them to marry to dispel any intentions of Nurvey towards Yale, but Nurvey felt that for having saved Wyba, Lina deserved it, so there wasn’t any need to say those words.

“So, you are the famous ruler of the eastern continent. I heard a lot about you.”

The king’s wife spoke politely while bowing towards Yale. She always refused to be considered the queen, so she was just considered the king’s wife. No one knew why she wanted to have such a low profile when her power was more than enough to stand in an important position.

However, she never tried to take advantage of her power and dedicated her life to the Elven University to help the young ones to improve.

The only one who understood her reasons was the king. He knew that his wife was a reincarnation and that she felt grateful for having a second chance in life, so she wanted to spend all her effort helping the elves.

The king had heard a bit about her past life, and although he didn0t know the details, she suffered a lot, which made the treatment she received after reincarnating being much better.

“Of course, you know about me. In your previous life, you were one of the Law Masters who attacked the eastern continent more than thirty thousand years ago.”

Everyone froze when they heard Yale’s words. The king already knew about it, but he never expected that Yale would discover it at first sight. The same applied to the king’s wife; she somehow felt that Yale would end discovering it, but not so quick.

Lina stared the king’s wife with a deadly glare. If it weren’t because she had taken care of Yale’s disciples and friends, she would have killed her immediately. She had heard about how Aiwai had suffered due to the True Empire, so everyone related to them was an enemy in Lina’s eyes.

Nurvey, Mercer, Merumi, and Kaigur couldn’t believe that those words were true because the king’s wife treated them very well, but seeing her face, they understood that Yale was right.

“It is just as you said. I was forced to attack your continent. My existence was just a puppet on the hands of my superiors, and there was no way for me to oppose. I know that my reasons aren’t enough to clear my sins, and at that time I didn’t feel that I was being controlled so much. It was only after killing myself before you killed me and forcing a random reincarnation that I saw that I lived controlled by the lies of my superiors the whole time. If you want to kill me, go ahead. I am ready.”

She wasn’t the only one who just before being killed by Yale’s past life decided to commit suicide for the hope of her soul managing to reincarnate.

The span of time to do that was short, and without enough understanding of the Life Law and the Death Law was doomed to fail, but she had enough luck to be proficient in both, and her soul entered into reincarnation before Yale destroyed it.

Nurvey’s group felt conflicted. Given that woman’s past, they felt that she deserved to die since they all learned about what happened thirty thousand years ago.

However, at the same time, she had treated them very well those ten years, and it was also she who personally found then scattered through the Elven Kingdom and surrounding countries and reunited them all in the capital of the Elven Kingdom.

She felt guilt for her acts in her previous life, so she had been paying a lot of attention to Yale after he reached the western continent. It was thanks to a bit of Yale’s aura on them that she managed to find them so quickly and put them in a safe place.

Of course, she didn’t do that to have a reason to beg for mercy. She just wanted to ease a bit her mind by doing something that would help Yale.

The king knew about that and had accepted it since that was something that his wife decided to accept.

He felt pain knowing that his wife was about to be killed, but since his wife herself said that she deserved it, he didn’t plan to protect her. Moreover, he also knew that there was no way that he could stop Yale if he wanted to kill someone.

“I won’t kill you.”

No one expected that reply from Yale.

“You did wrong things in your past life, but that was your past life. In your current life, you mended your path and lived an honest life. I have no reasons to kill you.”

If she had been trying to harm Yale or Yale’s friends, Yale would have killed her, but since she already died once for her crimes, Yale didn’t feel that she deserved to die again.

“Can I really be forgiven?”

The king’s wife couldn’t believe the situation because she always felt that the ruler of the eastern continent would kill her immediately.

“After reincarnating, you had been suppressing the others who manage to suicide and reincarnate. They are in the borders of the Elven Kingdom, and they are unable to make a move due to your suppression.”

Yale had already noticed the presence of those who were backing the True Empire’s actions, but despite having a great strength capable of surpassing any country in the western continent, they were suppressed by the Elven Kingdom.

The Elven Kingdom didn’t spare anything to create a sealing formation in their base, so only those who were weaker than a Law master could leave.

That was one of the main reasons for their influence remaining unknown for the rest of the continent.

At the start, they were quite a weak force, but since they were reincarnated experts, they just needed some time to recuperate.

Of course, they contacted all their reincarnated friends and formed a group, the king’s wife was also contacted, but she fooled them and made them feel into a trap.

The day that they became Law Masters and wanted to go out they were unable to do it.

They managed to kidnap people by sending weaklings to buy prisoners to the Dwarf Kingdom and other corrupted kingdoms, but their supplies were cut off when the Death God appeared.

They knew that the Death God was the ruler of the eastern continent since they would never forgive that deadly aura when Yale’s past life annihilated everyone. They managed to force their reincarnations in time by pure luck.

Moreover, except for the Dwarf Kingdom, the other kingdoms supplying slaves were annihilated, so it was impossible for them to obtain more slaves.

They used the slave’s souls as food to improve their powers; they were just food for them. Although their slave reserves were quite big, they were exhausted after ten years, so they were planning to risk going to the Dwarf Kingdom to buy some more slaves. However, they didn’t know the changes in the Dwarf Kingdom and when the slave trader reached the capital was executed immediately by the new Dwarf King.
