Chapter 382

Everyone looked at Yale with strange faces because healers were a strange existence in such a remote area .

There wasn't even a single person in the group who practiced the Magus Path, and that was something that also applied to all the other people in the town .

Not everyone had the talent to train into the Magus Path, and those who had such talent wouldn't live for long in a place that relied on criminals to trade .

Moreover, since no one knew about the Magus Path unless some traveler appeared, usually, there was no way for the children to practice it; they didn't even know if they had enough talent or not .

Healers were scarce even among those who practiced the Magus Path, so no one in that group had met a true healer before .

There were people who used the Magus Path spells with medicinal herbs to improve the medicinal effects of the herbs, but that was less efficient than true healing magic .

However, Yale's healing had surpassed what they expected by far . They weren't sure if Yale was extremely skilled or all the real healers had such power, but they could easily guess that having Yale with them was something critical for their travel .

"Mister Yale, thank you for saving me . "

The skinny man felt that he had the greatest stroke of luck of his life at that moment when he discovered that the guy that he hired was someone far more valuable than what he had thought .

That skinny man and his family were the only humans of the group since the rest were half-dwarves .

There wasn't really a lot of differences between half-dwarves and humans, but since they were in the Dwarf Kingdom, the half-dwarves looked down upon humans .

Of course, the other two families swallowed their opinions because they alone couldn't plan the trip, but in their hearts, they still considered themselves superior to humans .

The escorts were all half-dwarves, so the skinny man knew that no matter who brought them there, they would end siding with the other two families in case of danger, so he had been eager to hire a human .

In the Dwarf Kingdom, there wasn't equality, and the treatment for each species was different . Even half-dwarves needed to pay more taxes in the cities than the pure dwarves although the difference wasn't too high .

As for humans and other species, their taxes were incredibly high, so living in the city was almost impossible for an ordinary human .

Of course, as long one was strong enough or was considered to be useful for the kingdom, all the problems from being human would immediately disappear .

After all, there were things more important than the purity of the dwarves for the royalty and the nobility like strength . Those who were strong enough were treated as guests even by the most important people of the kingdom .

Besides strong people, those like Yale who could heal were also very valued, so even those half-dwarves weren't in a position of treating Yale as someone inferior .

Of course, Yale could kill everyone in an instant if they turned hostile towards him .

The only reason for Yale deciding to hear the offer of the skinny man was that he felt that the man had contact with Shirk and Shirk's wife in the past .

In the past created by Yale's acts, they appeared near that town but suffered some injuries in the process . After all, Yale only ensured that they would be alive in Yale's present, as for the difficulties they would have faced in the new timeline, it was outside Yale's reach .

That skinny man was the one who helped them ten years ago, and although that was also part of the past's modification, changing the past didn't change the personalities, so Yale was still grateful for the man for having helped them .

Those two wouldn't have died without the skinny man, but they would have faced a harder time, and they also repaid their debt to the skinny man before leaving, so there wasn't a compelling reason for Yale to help the skinny man .

However, since it could be considered to be some fate between them, Yale decided to help if that man seemed honest enough .

Obtaining information was just an excuse because Yale could just obtain all the information by reading the skinny man's mind, as reading the mind of a mere Novice Rank was just a child's play for Yale at that moment .

Yale had yet to read their minds as he had only relied on the Divine Eyes, but that was because he was showing respect to them while waiting for them explain it by themselves .

After Yale meet the group, he confirmed that those in the skinny man's family had all contact with Shirk and Driwna, and Yale could discern that no one had been hostile towards them despite how different they looked .

Besides himself, the skinny man's family had an elderly woman, a middle-aged woman, a young girl who seemed to be around thirteen, and the little girl who rushed to meet her father before .

Yale guessed that since even the little girl had met those two, Shirk and Driwna should have lived some time with that family .

Yale wasn't planning to expose anything else at that moment because he didn't want that the group to rely overly on him, but after being tagged as a healer, there was no way that he would be ignored .

"It is strange to meet a healer . We have been thinking about making a mercenary group after reaching the other town . Would you want to work for us? A healer is always welcome . Think it well, a mere human being able to enjoy the same respect as a half-dwarf isn't something common . "

A man who seemed the leader of the escort group spoke, he had bulky muscled but was quite short, so he needed to look up to speak with Yale .

"I am not interested . "

Yale rejected it straightforwardly since there was no way he would work with such weaklings . As for the traces of discrimination in the speech, Yale didn't mind at all, since they hadn't been said with malice .

"What? Are you turning down us? Do you know how great our offer is? You are a healer, but without protection, you will die in a matter of seconds, you need us!"

The members of the three families were displeased by those words since they could make Yale turn around and leave, which would be a loss for them, but they couldn't lose the escorts either because they also believed that Yale was only good at healing and that he didn't have any battle prowess .

"I don't need anyone to protect me . You can't even defeat me if you all group together, let alone kill me . How do you expect that your protection can be useful?"

Yale just told the truth as killing him would be difficult for even an Essence God . For an Essence God defeating Yale was perfectly possible since he was at a lower level, but after becoming a Timeless Sovereign, an Essence God would have a rough time if wanted to kill Yale .

However, the escort leader seemed to be angered by Yale's calm words .

"Everyone, since he is so confident, let's give a test to him . "

The ten escorts drew their weapons and rushed towards Yale . There wasn't any killing intent since they just planned to humiliate him a bit to make him understand his position and how he needed protection .

However, before they even notice, they were lying down on the ground wearing just their underwear .

No one understood what happened, but they could see the clothes of the ten men orderly packed beside Yale and all the weapons sheathed beside the clothes of their owners .

"Next time you do something like this, I will kill you all . Give thanks that there are ladies here and I decided to leave your underwear for the sake of their eyes . "

When hearing Yale's words, the escorts finally understood that they had been defeated before even being able to notice that Yale had moved .

Since Yale managed to take off all the clothes and even put them orderly on the ground, he could have killed them without any problem .

"We were blind . We beg for your forgiveness . Please allow us to call you 'Boss' from now on . We will obey any order . "

Although those escorts weren't overly smart, they recognized when a battle was impossible to win, and after witnessing Yale's means, they knew that the young man in front of them wasn't weak at all .

The members of the two half-dwarf families had conflicted feeling while hearing those words since they were the ones paying those escorts and had no relationship with Yale, but after witnessing Yale's power, they endured it because they knew that Yale could just kill them all if he were angry .

If they were to learn that Yale was the Death God and that they dared to be disrespectful towards him, they might die just form the fear . Fortunately, Yale didn't give any murderous aura at that moment, so no one thought that there could be a relationship between Yale and the Death God .

Moreover, the Death God was known for being merciless, and there was no way that he would just humiliate those escorts for their acts .

Of course, if the attack had been with killing intent instead of just a way to try to humiliate him, Yale would have also killed them without mercy .
