Chapter 247: True Empires Slaves

Yale and his father walked silently by the prison; they didnt feel like speaking with the other.

There was a lot of people in those jails, but their souls were already enslaved making those people lose any hopes in their life; they couldnt even kill themselves as their strength was thoroughly sealed due to having enslaved souls.

The True Empire treated people like them like beasts. Those people werent allowed to wear any clothes, and they could only eat the same food as the one given to the animals; in fact, the animals received more food than them. Moreover, they all had the order of never speaking again unless they were ordered to do it, so at most, they could make some beastly sounds.

They were a sample of the fate that the True Empire wanted to all the inhabitants of the continent.

Yale didnt feel good seeing people in that state and wanted to force them to reincarnate to stop their suffering, but if all of them died at the same time, he feared that the members of the True Zhan Clan would be alerted.

It was possible for one of those slaves to die due to the lack of nutrition or the living conditions, so that wouldnt catch any attention as it was pretty normal and the True Empire didnt care about those lives. However, if a lot of them died in a short span of time, they would be alerted and saving Ange was a priority, so Yale couldnt risk alerting the True Empire for some unknown people.

Grandfather

Yales father stopped when he saw that the clan head of the Roanmad Clan was in one of those jails and his state wasnt better than the others.

Yale also stopped and saw the old man in the jail; although he didnt have such a close relationship with him, that man was still his great-grandfather and a victim of the True Empire.

Sorry, I cant save you.

Yale muttered those words unconsciously when seeing the clan leader in such a pitiful state that didnt seem even to recognize Yale and his father.

So, even you cant do anything to solve this. More reason to rush to save Ange.

Yales father felt bad for the clan head, but as they couldnt help him, it was better to ignore him and save Ange.

I cant save him, but I can force him to reincarnate. Usually, this kind of enslavement wont disappear even after reincarnation, this is quite different from those soul marks. However, I have a method to make him reincarnate without the effects of soul slavery.

The clan head was muddle-headed and didnt recognize them, but when he heard those last words she started to nod his head with the little strength he had; he wanted to die, and if he could reincarnate without being a slave then it would be fabulous. Those were the only thoughts in his broken mind. Even without reincarnation, he would still choose to die if he needed to live like that.

Isnt that just killing him and provoking more problems for others? Experts like you never consider the problems you provoke when reincarnating or sending others to reincarnate.

It was clear that Yales father was completely against reincarnation, but Yale ignored his opinion.

He wants to die and reincarnate, and I will fulfill his wish.

It was impossible for someone to cross the barrier of the jail, but that kind of barrier wasnt effective against the Space-time judgment Sword. Although the barrier wasnt broken, the sword could cross it without problems. Of course, Yale needed to grab the sword; he couldnt use his Spiritual Sense to control it inside the jail.

The head of the Roanmad Clan neared to the extreme on the jail and closed his eyes hoping to die quickly.

Yale was about killing him when the two Condensed Essence on his body resonated with the Space-time Judgment Sword and the sword crossed the clan heads body without harming it.

However, the clan head fell to the ground lifeless despite not having any injury in his body; even the internal parts of his body were in a perfect that. He died without any suffering; the sword omitted his body and directly reached his soul forcing him to reincarnate.

The user acted with piety towards an enslaved soul helping it to reincarnate, Legacy Skill [Merciful Reincarnation] unlocked.

Yale wasnt expecting to obtain a new Legacy Skill in that situation.

Merciful Reincarnation: Sends the target soul to reincarnation omitting any abnormal state of the soul. The targets body wont be damaged nor will suffer any pain. Requires using the Space-time Judgment Sword, the Death Essence and the Sword Essence. The skill can be improved by adding the use of Life Essence. Only if the user pitied the targets soul can this skill be executed. This skill will fail against evil souls due to the nature of the Space-time Judgment Sword.

That skill wasnt for battling against others, but to save them. That was also one of Liyes most personal skills; he had saved a lot of people with that skill in the past.

It was extremely difficult to heal the problems in the soul, and even Liye couldnt do that. Having problems with the soul would also block reincarnation or the problems would be inherited for the next life, those were the two options depending on what problem the soul had. Thus, for most people with some problems in their souls the chance of reincarnating through Merciful Reincarnation was an ultimate blessing.

Moreover, for Yale, using Merciful Reincarnation wasnt that difficult despite needing some understanding about the essences because the Condensed Essences would help Yale as long as he fulfilled the conditions; that was a huge advantage of the Legacy Skills. It was similar to how Yale could use Absolute Protection since the moment he obtained it without understanding the Time Law.

As expected of you; killing our clan head without blinking.

Yale stared his father coldly when he heard those words.

The clan head wanted this. He died without pain and will have another chance at life.

That was the only method to freed the head of the Roanmad Clan for his fate as a slave; Yale didnt send him to reincarnation because he liked to do it.

Even if he reincarnates, he wont be our clan head anymore. I know very well that only those who reached certain levels of power can remember the memories of other lives and the clan head was just at the Master Rank like my wife when she died. Thus, no matter if they reincarnate, they wont be themselves anymore. They are gone forever!

When Yales mother died, the Mysterious Expert made her reincarnate, but also explained that about reincarnation to Yales father.

In fact, it was possible to recover those memories as long one reached a high level in training, but at such point even if someone recovered their memories, they wouldnt be the same person.

Even Lar who recovered some of her memories when she just reached the Novice Rank due to the problems with her soul wasnt exactly the same as before, so it was easy to imagine how different would be someone who recovered those memories after a lot of time.

My sword is special. Although it isnt the normal case, he will be able to remember this life after reincarnation thanks to this sword. However, I dont know where and when he will be born again.

Besides the power of the Space-time Judgment Sword, it was also possible to forcefully made someone reincarnate with memories with enough mastery of life and death, but Yale wasnt too knowledgeable about how that worked.

Then, maybe my wife

Yales father changed a bit after hearing Yale, but the later quickly shook his head.

This sword is bound to my soul, and I am the only one who can use it. Moreover, this sword needs to kill the target to trigger that effect. I wont say that there arent other methods for her to keep her memories, but I dont know who that person you spoke of was, nor I can deduce that persons abilities. Anyway, unless you found her reincarnation, you wont be able to ensure if she remembers or no.

The face of Yales father turned gloomy again. He knew that his wife wasnt killed by a sword and since that person told him that people at low levels wouldnt have their memories after reincarnation unless they reached a high level in training, he didnt believe that such person had a method to protect his wifes memories.

Of course, he couldnt be sure of that part, but he didnt even know if she had already reincarnated or not, and even if she already reincarnated, finding her wouldnt be an easy task. Thus, for him, that small hope quickly disappeared.

It is the same in the end. For weaklings like us, reincarnation is the same as disappearing forever

Yales father knew that even if he had the luck of finding his wife or his grandfather after their reincarnation, they wouldnt have the same relationship. He was unable to accept something like reincarnation no matter how he tried to use it as a hope.

In fact, that negative towards reincarnation was the main reason for people being unable to treat the reincarnated selves of people they had met before in the same way. Except for few cases like Lar, most people would think like Yales father in front of reincarnation.
