Chapter 311 - Unexpected Meeting

Chapter 311: Unexpected Meeting

Yale understood that the story wasn’t as simple as Julie explained and that probably she also deserved a beating, but after an hour of beating Oscro, Yale decided to forgive Julie in exchange for the help with the True Empire and the ship.

Thus, only Oscro suffered Yale’s wrath, just as Julie planned since the day when she was unable to top stop Oscro’s wasteful business of selling his own plushies.

“Well, the matter of the plushies is settled. Since the money used to the ship was made taking profit from me, I suppose that I can use it on my free will, right? I am planning to leave the continent.”

Neither of them seemed surprised, although was difficult to see any expression in Oscro’s swollen face.

“Of course, feel free to use it.”

Julie was about to add something, but Yale interrupted them.

“Well, now we need to speak about that picture of myself on the wall of the building.”

Oscro looked at Julie begging with his eyes.

“Please. be merciful, don’t make him beat me again.”

Julie understood what Oscro wanted to say just seeing his eyes. Fortunately for Oscro, she didn’t plan to have him beaten again.

“The paintings of the walls have less than one year, but we didn’t do your painting because we wanted. It was the suggestion of the same person who told us that you were coming to Trade City and that you needed a ship.”

Yale didn’t know if the shameless level of Julie had reached unfathomable heights or the situation was as weird as she made it sound.

At that moment, Yale had some curiosity for the person who had predicted his return to Trade City. At that start, Yale thought that was the same person that had helped him in the shadows before, but that person had never interfered with Yale so directly as asking for have an enormous picture of him on the highest building of Trade City.

“Where is this person. I want to know the person who predicted my travel.”

Yale wanted to hear some explanations from that person before deciding what to do. After all, he didn’t discard that Julie was lying because she was a merchant and merchants were adept at lying.

“He is residing in our hotel. It is the best of the city and very expensive, but this person paid for the most expensive room and is living there since the day he arrived at Trade City.”

Julie knew that the person in question was rich and a big shot for expending money so easily, so she tried to please him and making a huge picture of Yale and Wyba wasn’t a big price for obtaining that person’s trust.

In fact, she also wanted to do something like that, but she feared too much Yale’s wrath, so she didn’t dare to do it until that person asked her.

“Lead me to that hotel. Oscro doesn’t need to come; it would be bad for the company if others saw him in that state.”

Of course, Yale could just heal Oscro in an instant, but he was the one who beat him, he didn’t plan to heal him just after the beating.

“Alright. However, you need to know that this person is very powerful and should have a big background, don’t be reckless.”

Julie feared that Yale would instantly beat the other party before starting to speak and the consequences that doing that would have.

Descending from the building was quite quick since they used an elevated which was for private use of the founders. If Yale had known that elevator before, he wouldn’t have needed to hide, since that elevator led to a secret exit.

Since Yale didn’t know that, after leaving the highest floor, he ended up sending Wyba again to the Storage Space to avoid her being caught in any trouble if they were detected.

The hotel was quite near to the main building of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company; in five minutes they were there.

Julie had been careful and made secret doors in all the building letting her move without others noticing her presence. After all, she also sold plushies of herself and her picture was also in the building; although she didn’t have as many fans as Yale, she still had a lot and mainly males. Sadly, for those males, she didn’t have any interest in them because for her they were like mindless pigs.

The floor in which that person was residing was also the highest one, but the hotel only had twenty floors, it couldn’t compare with the office of Julie and Oscro.

There was only one room on the twentieth floor because almost all the floor was the room itself.

Julie knocked the door before speaking.

“I am Julie. Just as you said, Yale has reached Trade City, and he wants to meet you.”

Some seconds later the door opened, and the person that Yale saw was someone that he would have never expected to find in the Zuatania Republic.

Although that person had changed quite a bit since the last time that he saw him, there was no way that Yale couldn’t recognize him.

“Sebe, I never expected that you were the person Julie was speaking of.”

Sebe didn’t have any beast part since his bloodline was upgraded unless he changed voluntarily to half-beast form, but in a place like Trade City doing that wasn’t wise.

“Yale, my friend. I had been waiting for you all his time. Come, enter the room. I can’t let my benefactor wait outside.”

Julie had already guessed that probably those two knew each other from before, but she didn’t expect that they were so close to the point that Sebe considered Yale as his benefactor.

“Just what kind of experiences Yale had after he left Trade City that time…”

Julie wasn’t able to imagine anything about Yale’s journey since he left until he returned.

Yale and Julie followed Sebe inside the room until they reached an area with some expensive seats and the three of them sat there.

“I am not the only one here. Shirk come, Yale is here. You don’t need to hide.”

A cloaked person also appeared there, and after seeing that Yale was there, he put off the cloak and showed his reptilian face. Shirk’s looks were a huge problem in the Zuatania Republic, but luckily, he was traveling with Sebe. However, he still preferred to hide his looks form others as much as he could.

Julie also knew about Shirk since the day Sebe rented the room, but for Julie, someone like Shirk who had enough background to reside in the most expensive room of the hotel had far more status than any human who couldn’t even pay the cheapest one.

“As long as one had money that person is a customer.”

Julie worked with that mindset, so the usual discrimination against half-beasts by the citizens of the Zuatania Republic wasn’t something that applied to her.

“Shirk, you look well as always, come to sit with us.”

Yale was quite happy to have met Sebe and Shirk since he left the Anpaes Kingdom without having a chance to bid farewell.

Shirk was a bit doubtful because his status was far inferior to Sebe and Yale, but he didn’t dare to disobey Yale’s words.

“Sebe, you can start explaining yourself right now. Why are you here?”

Since the other party was Sebe who treated Yale very well in the past, Yale didn’t want to make the things difficult for him and gave him the chance to explain the whole situation.

“I am not too sure either. After I dealt with the people of the True Empire residing in the Anpaes Kingdom, I returned to report everything to my father. At that moment, my father told me that you would appear one year later in the Zuatania Republic with intentions to leave the continent, so he sent me here to meet you.”

Sebe’s father had met the Mysterious Expert before, and that time it was also the Mysterious Expert who told Paku what his son needed to do.

At that moment, Yale also guessed that probably the same person who had acted as his background in the Anpaes Kingdom was the one who told that to Sebe’s father.

“After reaching this place, I heard that a company sold plushies of Wyba and I thought that it was your little sister, so I went there and then I meet Julie and that other guy.”

Sebe discovered the truth about Wyba at that time, since both, the wolf and the half-beast were Yale’s little sister. It was quite difficult for him to believe that Wyba was a Divine Beast capable of transforming, but since the Divine Beast Bloodline existed, it wasn’t impossible for a Divine Beast to be related with Yale.

Of course, Sebe didn’t say anything about Yale having a Divine Beast Bloodline nor revealed Wyba’s transformation skills.

“At that time, they were thinking about decorating their building, so I proposed to put your image with Wyba in one face of the building. Your company is unstoppable in this country right now. If you turn a bit more popular, with the support of the company you can turn this republic into a kingdom and be the king easily.”

Yale sighed after confirming that it was Sebe’s fault, but he did it because he wanted to help Yale in obtaining the whole Zuatania Republic.

“The paintings on the other three faces are Wyba, a pack of Frost wolves, and finally me. Oscro was left out, after the failure of his plushies he didn’t have the guts even to dare to say anything about it.”

Julie spoke at that moment to clarify that because she guessed that Yale didn’t inspect all the building.

“I see. Sebe, I don’t have any interest in power, you don’t need to make that kind of plans.”

Yale discarded any idea of beating Sebe because he was stronger than the current Yale, and Sebe didn’t do it to obtain any benefit from Yale when he says about putting him on the building’s wall.

“Yale, you should have guessed it, but I want to follow you to the other continent.”

At that moment, Sebe’s face turned serious as he spoke about his true intentions. Paku had only ordered him to meet with Yale, as for what to do afterward, it was Sebe’s decision.

After all, the Mysterious Expert only told Paku that Sebe needed to meet with Yale before Yale departed from the continent.
