Chapter 274

"Dispelling the poison will need about four hours . Nurvey you can go back to the Imperial Palace, there is no reason to wait here while I treat Hyrk . "

Nurvey had already waited two hours while Yale healed Hyrk's body and Yale felt bad for making her wait for such a long time, so he didn't want to make her wait any longer while he dispelled the poison .

However, Nurvey shook her head and remained in the same position; she was determined to wait until the poison was dispelled before returning to the Imperial Palace with Yale and Hyrk .

There were some guards that wanted to close the gates and rest, but there was no way that they would leave Nurvey outside and close the gates unless they wanted to lose their puny lives .

Moreover, despite not knowing why Yale should be treated with the same respect as Nurvey or Revgen, they were truly amazed by his healing skills . Most healers would have just given up on Hyrk given the state of his injuries and the poison inside of him, and that was only in the case that they recognized the poison inside Hyrk's body which was already difficult .

After seeing that Nurvey didn't plan to leave, Yale started to work on dispelling the poison inside Hyrk's body .

Hyrk was conscious and could speak without problems after being healed, but he remained in silence for fear of disturbing Yale .

Four hours later, Yale sighed in relief as he used the Divine Life Eyes to confirm that Hyrk's body was in a good state .

"You are already healed . However, you may feel a bit weak for some time . "

Hearing that Yale had ended the process of dispelling the poison, Nurvey ordered some guards to help Hyrk go into the Imperial Palace because just as Yale had said, Hyrk's body was weak after all the pain that he had experienced .

Although Hyrk's body didn't have any injuries, his soul had been damaged and the extreme pain he had felt made it difficult for him to adapt to his healed body immediately .

Yale also returned to the Imperial Palace following Nurvey, Hyrk and the guards .

"Nurvey, I think that we should bring Hyrk to your bedroom . We need to hear what happened to him as soon as possible . "

Nurvey nodded, and then Yale immediately teleported Nurvey and Hyrk with him towards Nurvey's bedroom where Revgen and Ange were waiting .

Revgen had heard what had happened at the gates; if Revgen wanted it, it would be impossible for anything that happened inside the Imperial Palace to be hidden from him .

"Sit him in this chair . We need to hear what happened to him . This has been an attempt to destroy our Imperial Family; I must learn everything about this matter . "

Revgen spoke immediately after Yale's group appeared in the room .

"Hyrk, this person in Nurvey's grandfather, Revgen . "

Hyrk was shocked by that because he had always imagined Revgen as an old man and the man in front of him only seemed to be around his thirties . However, he didn't dare to say anything about that to Revgen because he feared to offend him .

"Hyrk, tell us what happened to you? Who did that to you?"

After sitting Hyrk in a chair, Yale finally asked him . In fact, Hyrk already knew that they were going to ask that because he had heard their conversation, and since telling everything to Nurvey was his original plan, he didn't have any problem in replying to that question .

As for the presence of Yale and Revgen, Yale had saved his life, and Revgen was someone Hyrk had always admired despite never having met him before, so he didn't have any problem in explaining everything in front of them .

"The one who did this to me is the Clan Head of the Hyeran Clan . He wanted to put a mark on my soul to make me join an organization called True Empire, but I refused . Then, they tortured me, but I still refused to let them mark my soul . "

The expressions of Revgen, Yale, and Nurvey were all cold when they heard that the Clan Head of the Hyeran Clan asked Hyrk to join the True Empire .

"After that, they tried to enslave me . That was too painful, but I resisted with all my effort no matter how they tortured me . "

Yale guessed that at that point was when Hyrk's soul got damaged .

"I am very stubborn, but when I felt that I couldn't endure more, some men under the orders of the clan head brought my little sister . . . she was already enslaved by them and obeyed every one of their commands; they even tarnished her body . . . "

When he said that, Hyrk felt Yale's cold killing intent . After all, the True Empire almost did that to Ange; if Yale had been slower, he might have experienced that same as Hyrk when meeting his sister .

"They brought her to weaken my will, but that only strengthened me, and I made an oath that the True Empire would never enslave me . If I were to be enslaved by them, my soul would disperse . They can kill me, but they can't control me!"

That was the reason for Hyrk wanting to die after learning that the True Empire was using him; he didn't want to be used as their pawn .

An oath made by someone as weak as Hyrk didn't have any binding power, but that determination enhanced his will force to endure the torture .

In fact, when the clan head noticed that Hyrk would rather die than submit, he started to beat him to death and put that poison into his body before letting him flee .

The clan head decided that the worst torture for Hyrk would be dying being a pawn of the True Empire while betraying Nurvey and the Revgen Empire, despite Hyrk himself not knowing anything about the poison inside his own body .

"I was beaten until I was almost dead, you already saw how I was when I reached the Imperial Palace . At the start, I thought that they neglected me because of my injuries and that I managed to escape undiscovered, but now I understand that everything was within the plans of the Clan Head . "

Revgen looked towards Hyrk before asking him a question .

"How did you reach the palace? How many people walked near to you before reaching the Imperial Palace . "

Revgen was worried for the casualties provoked to the innocent people that walked near to Hyrk . On the other hand, Yale felt that Revgen's question was stupid because anyone who had crossed paths with Hyrk had also ignored his injuries, which wasn't different than sending him to his death due to his state, so Yale didn't pity those people .

If someone had helped Hyrk to reach the Imperial Palace, then Yale would have also healed that person as thanks, but for the people who ignored him, he didn't have any time to spare .

That was the main reason for Yale avoiding asking that question when he healed Hyrk .

"I didn't meet anyone after escaping until I reached the gates of the Imperial Palace . There is a hidden passage in the headquarters of the Hyeran Clan leading to near the gates of Imperial Palace . I used it to reach the Imperial Palace in secret . "

Thinking about it at that moment, the fact that the hidden passage was without any guards also seemed planned to let him use it . After all, with his injuries, he would have never been able to reach the Imperial Palace by normal means .

"Impossible . There shouldn't be any hidden passage leading to any place near the Imperial Palace, creating one is something punished with death . "

At that moment, Revgen was sure that the Hyeran Clan had betrayed the Revgen Empire from a long time ago; there wasn't any other way that they could have prepared a hidden passage that could be used to attack the gates of Imperial Palace without advice .

"I only heard that from some guards when the Clan Head was beating me . "

At that moment, Hyrk felt that he was truly a fool, even that conversation between guards had been planned to guide him to the Imperial Palace .

"Hyrk, what about the other members of the Hyeran Clan? Has everyone accepted that mark on the soul, or has some people refused?"

Yale felt that it was an important point because depending on the answer there wasn't any Hyeran Clan, only a True Hyeran Clan belonging to the True Empire .

"The Clan Head said that accepting the mark was mandatory for every one of the members of the clan . It seemed that some of the core members had already accepted that mark from before, but the rest of the people only needed to have their souls marked recently . I don't know if someone else also refused to accept the mark, but they wouldn't be better than me if they refused to accept the mark . "
