Chapter 273

Yale had difficulties to believe the information given by the Divine Light Eyes when he used them on Hyrk, but he decided to trust his Special Innate Talent and thus stopped Nurvey from going towards Hyrk .

Nurvey was shocked by Yale's reaction because at the start Yale had also rushed towards Hyrk with her .

"Any problem?"

Nurvey didn't like how Yale had stopped her, but she believed that he had a reason to do that . In fact, after being stopped, she believed that maybe the Hyrk in front of him was fake and wanted to kill her .

Yale seemed to guess Nurvey's thoughts as his next words replied to her doubts .

"He is the real Hyrk; there is no doubt about that . "

The Divine Light Eyes had told him Hyrk's name because even the normal Appraisal could do that for someone who was just at the Apprentice Rank and moreover, Hyrk was heavily injured, so it wasn't difficult for appraisal to obtain his true identity; his problem wasn't his identity .

Nurvey didn't know how to react at that moment because if that Hyrk was the real one, Yale shouldn't have any reason to stop her unless Hyrk was a traitor . Again, Yale guessed Nurvey's thoughts, in fact, that was a pretty normal way of thought in that situation, and if Yale didn't have his Divine Eyes and the methods to identify traitor marks, he would have thought the same .

"Hyrk isn't a traitor nor he had any bad intention when he went towards the Imperial Palace; the state of his body is terrible and need help desperately . "

Those words let Nurvey baffled; she understood even less the reasons for Yale stopping her if Hyrk wasn't a traitor and was really on the verge of death .

"Why?"

Nurvey couldn't resist from asking Yale about his reasons; she trusted him, but she was unable to understand his thoughts like Yale seemed to do with her thoughts .

"Do you think that someone who managed to leave him in such state is someone from who Hyrk could flee in such state?"

After thinking a bit about it, Nurvey nodded because it was indeed unbelievable that he managed to flee despite his current state unless the one who injured him let him go on purpose .

"I don't know the identity of the one that did that to Hyrk, but there is a strong poison inside his body . That poison had a retarding effect and would only appear after some hours, but anyone who neared him would be poisoned even while the poison isn't active . If you had rushed towards him, you would have been poisoned, and then you would have transmitted the poison to the people inside the Imperial Palace; that poison would spread quickly, and when it flared, the Imperial Family would be almost destroyed . "

Everyone who heard Yale's words was shocked by them . However, the most shocked was Hyrk, who was still conscious despite being unable to talk in his current state .

He thought that he managed to flee by luck and looked for Nurvey because he felt that was the most secure place for him; he would have never expected that he had a poison hidden in his body and was being used to deal with the Imperial Family .

Moreover, at that moment, Hyrk recognized Yale, he was happy that Yale had managed to exit the special realm alive, but that wasn't a moment to speak about the old times .

"Yale . . . kill me . . . "

Hyrk used all his strength to say those words; he was suffering a lot and was slowly dying with unbearable pain . Thus, he wanted his friend to finish him with some long-range attack to avoid being poisoned and put an end to his pain .

Originally Hyrk wanted to be saved, but after hearing about the poison inside his body, he was ready to die . He asked Yale to do it because he felt that if someone of the Imperial Family killed him, the Hyeran Clan would have a reason to oppose the Imperial Family openly .

"I won't kill you . I will save you . "

Yale had confidence in that due to his Divine grade Innate Talent in poison . Moreover, with poison immunity, he had nothing to fear to the poison inside Hyrk's body despite its lethality .

Despite saying that he would save him, Yale didn't move as he used the Divine Death Eyes to check Hyrk's state .

"Name: Hyrk"

"Health Status: 3% . "

"Body issues: Heavy injuries to all the body . Estimated death in fifteen minutes . Hidden poison in his body . The poison in the body doesn't act immediately, but its transmitted easily to anyone near the infected body, once the poison flares even a Sage Rank expert would be extremely weakened and anyone at the Grandmaster Rank or lower will die . "

"Soul Issues: Part of the soul is missing . That issue is provoked by a failure in a soul enslaving process due to resisting to the enslavement and stopping it forcefully using will-force . "

The only new part for Yale was the one related to the Soul issues as the other was the same as when he used the Divine Light Eyes to check Hyrk .

Yale's face turned grim when he learned about the state of Hyrk's soul . However, that damage to the soul showed how he refused to betray the Revgen Empire no matter what kind of pain would he suffer when he was being enslaved .

As long as the mind wavered in the slightest, the enslavement would succeed, but Hyrk's soul was damaged because he was stubborn and didn't hesitate even for a second despite the pain he had felt at that moment .

Hyrk also planned to transmit the information he had obtained to Nurvey after being saved . He would have said it before being saved, but he wasn't able to speak that much when he reached the gates of the Imperial Palace, being able to ask to meet Nurvey was already his limit .

Yale knew how to dispel the poison on Hyrk's body, and with his capabilities, it wasn't difficult; the most fearsome part of the poison was that it was almost impossible to detect until it flared, but as long it hasn't flared, removing it wasn't difficult for anyone who was skilled in healing .

However, Yale couldn't heal a soul that had lost a part of it due to a failing enslaving . Although the level of that damage wouldn't affect a normal life, it would limit the success in practice .

Probably Hyrk would never reach the Expert Rank in the Magus Path and in the Warrior Path he could still reach the Sage Rank if he had some lucky encounters and trained hard, but if he tried to comprehend a bit of any law, he would be unable to it . Thus, it was impossible for him becoming a Law Master due to the harm in his soul .

"Nurvey, stay here and don't approach him . I will heal his body and dispel that poison that is hidden within it . I am immune to poisons, so you don't need to worry about me . "

Nurvey quickly nodded and didn't move even when Yale released her; she was adept to any types of support magic, but despite having also trained some healing, she wasn't good enough to have confidence in dispelling a poison that she was unable to detect . After all, she didn't focus on healing, so it wasn't shameful for Nurvey being unable to heal a strange poison .

Yale neared Hyrk, and he felt an almost undetectable poison enter in his body . However, that poison was destroyed at that same moment due to the Poison Immunity .

When Yale reached Hyrk's side, he used Time Healing to restore Hyrk's body before starting to deal with the poison because Hyrk was really on the verge of death, and there was no need for the poison to kill him .

The poison was there to affect the people of the Imperial Family after they had helped him because Hyrk was already a corpse in the eyes of the person who poisoned him; he just was allowed to live to harm the Imperial Family .

Hyrk had been harmed some time ago because he had traveled to the Imperial City, but the time since he was injured wasn't too long ago and Yale's talent in Time and Healing had improved a lot, so he could heal Hyrk even if he needed some time .

After the improvements in his talents, Time Healing only needed 1 Origin Point per second, so Yale could use Time Healing on Hyrk without needing to worry about exhausting all his energy .

Yale needed two hours to recover Hyrk's body, and even after so much healing, there were a lot of scars covering Hyrk's body because there was some damage that was unable to heal completely due to being inflicted to Hyrk some days before the heaviest injuries that were the main danger to his life .

Moreover, even if Hyrk's body had been healed, he would need to rest a bit before being able to move freely .

"Your body is already alright; now I will deal with that poison inside of you . "

Yale knew that dispelling that poison would also require time because despite not being too difficult, it was a rather slow process .

That was the main reason for Yale wanting to avoid Nurvey and the guards getting infected; he wouldn't have enough time to heal everyone in a short time, and it would be a disaster if that poison flared when a lot of people were still infected by it .
