Ange was surprised after hearing that her savior wanted to accept her as a direct disciple, but for Yale, that was quite logical given how talented Ange was.

Although each expert had a different taste for disciples, it was difficult to ignore someone with so much talent.

"Greetings Master!"

Ange was surprised, but she still accepted quickly. After all, having a strong master was the best way to ensure her own safety.

As for the part of helping her when practicing, Ange didn't think about it because she never felt that practice was difficult just boring.

"Great. Ange, you are my only direct disciple, so you will have a status far different than other people in the academy, but I need to remember you that you mustn't use this authority to bully others."

He had a good opinion about Ange, but kids had the tendency to corrupt if they had too much authority, so he spoke to prevent her from having any thought of abusing of her authority.

However, that was useless because Ange wouldn't have abused about her authority even if she had the power to decide about the lives and deaths of all the members of the academy, let alone just being the direct disciple of the founder.

"Don't worry, master. I will never act like that."

The man seemed quite pleased with Ange's reply.

"As expected of my disciple. Let's go."

Ange felt that the space surrounding her was changing, which was something similar to what she felt in that random teleportation.

"Master, can you tell me your name first? It would be improper not knowing it after reaching the academy."

Ange already guessed that they were going to teleport, so she asked hurriedly.

"Oh, right, I forgot about introducing myself. My name is Gerken, but most people know me by my nickname, the Soul Reaper. I don't like that nickname, so don't use it."

Gerken was famous for how many souls he destroyed with his scythe, which could affect souls, but those were all people who abused from others, and that nickname made him seem like a mindless killer.

"Understood, Master Gerken."

Ange felt that her master's nickname fitted his actions when he killed those bandits, but she felt that her master was a kind person after all, so she decided to not use that nickname.

After both of them teleported, they appeared in front of a colossal city with a nameplate on the entrance.

"Heaven Academy... is this master's academy?"

Gerken nodded after hearing Ange's question.

"It tuned quite big after so much time. Each time I return, its size has increased a lot."

Gerken looked at the academy with nostalgy on his eyes.

"I named it Heaven Academy with the hope that it would turn into a safe place for children in this hell-like world. At that time, I wasn't strong enough to subdue the whole planet despite being its owner, but I was able to separate this space to create the Heaven Academy. The whole planet was filled with constant war and slaughter, but here it was a peaceful place suitable for training. Most of the students from that time are currently acting as teachers here."

An academy like that would be impossible to sustain on any planet that didn't belong to him or in which there were experts stronger than him.

Moreover, the Heaven Academy was hidden by a formation he created inspiring into his cloak, so unless someone knew that the place existed and was observing him while teleporting there, not even an Origin God would be able to discover the Heaven Academy.

However, very few people knew that the famous Soul Reaper was the owner of that planet, and the planet itself wasn't very valuable either, so there wasn't anyone stronger than him that had managed to see him teleporting to the Heaven Academy.

Of course, no one was only referring to before he teleported there with Ange because Yale discovered the Heaven Academy at that moment.

Yale was quite shocked after discovering that in the Heaven Academy were more Law God than in the rest of the world. If the Heaven Academy wanted to exterminate all the other powers on the planet, it would be an easy thing to do.

When Ange was introduced to the others in the academy, jealous gazes were directed toward her, but no one was planning to seek problems.

After all, they all feared their dean, the Soul Reaper. Any student who turned into a bully would be killed without mercy.

All of those students knew that without the Heaven Academy, they would have died a long time ago, so they felt normal that the dean would kill them if they betrayed the academy.

Although it was impossible to prevent some bully to appear, even if the dean wasn't there, those bullies didn't survive. Each time a new bully died, the thought of those students that bullying others was the same as a death sentence turned firmer.

As for trying to offend a direct disciple of their dean, it was something they wouldn't do even if they were crazy.

Yale relaxed once Ange started to live on the Heaven Academy, where she was treated like a princess.

"This is the best outcome."

Yale murmured those words unconsciously.

"Why do you say that? This is obviously a good outcome, but are you sure that it couldn't be anything better for her?"

Lina argued after hearing Yale.

"I don't know, that is just how I feel. You can call it intuition."

Lina didn't argue more and left to report Ange's state to the others.

Yale had a strange smile on his face because he knew something that he couldn't say. More exactly, something that even if he said no one would believe.

"I remember clearly that Ange was almost killed by those bandits and I teleported there to save her, and that forced her to reincarnate again, which provoked problems in the war as Lina was kidnapped while being pregnant again. We lost the war."

Yale remembers that clearly, but at the same time, he also remembered Ange being saved, which didn't make sense with the other memories.

Those memories about Ange not being saved appeared suddenly after she was saved, so he knew that Ange was safe, but he couldn't help to think about those memories.

Moreover, there were some memories that were from the future. If he only saw the future, he would have considered it a vision, but he also remembered a bit of different past, which made no sense at all if it was a vision.

He immediately thought of a Timeless Sovereign modifying the past, but after going to the Timeless Border to investigate no one had done something to alter the time.

The universe creator didn't act, the Mysterious Expert didn't act, Alter Yale didn't act, and obviously, Yale himself didn't act either.

Yale would have thought that he was just overly worried for Ange and thought of the worst situation, but with his level, he could differentiate between memories and worries. Moreover, illusions couldn't affect him.

Thus, he was sure that those memories were real, but not from his current timeline. Obviously, those memories weren't from Alter Yale either because for him Ange never managed to reincarnate, so she never went to that planet.

"Something modified the flow of time making Ange survive, but that hasn't been something did by a Timeless Sovereign, nor any other living being of this universe."

Yale was sure about that point because there wasn't any other possible explanation for those memories.

"Before, when I investigated the problems of this universe's fate, I noticed that curse which provoked so many problems to Wyba and Ange, but thinking about it again, that curse too strong to the effects it has like if something was restricting it."

Yale felt enlightened at that moment.

"That thing which is restraining it should be the reason for this. I don't know what it is, but definitely, it isn't a living being, it is more like that curse, but it works on the opposite and doesn't plan to harm those living in this universe. However, something like a curse capable of turning back on time to solve a problem is something too scary. I can't even imagine how such a thing exists in this universe. Moreover, I can't detect that thing directly, so it has probably been part of this universe from the first moment."

It was difficult to believe, but Yale was sure that there was something strange with the universe and its fate, but that was something that had been there from the start.

"This universe was created different from usual ones, but that alone can't explain what is happening... Moreover, this is the first time I have this kind of dual memories but is this really the first time it happens, or I was just too weak previously, and I wasn't able to notice it?"

At that moment, in the Timeless Border, the shadow of the universe creator smiled.

"Finally, someone else besides me who is able to see through this eternal curse, but I always believed that he would be able to do it someday. Am I right, Yale's shadow?"

A man looking exactly like Yale appeared at the side of the universe creator's shadow.

Yale left a shadow each time he entered into the Timeless Border, so it wasn't strange that there was a shadow there, but that shadow wasn't of any of the times Yale went there.
