Yale was slightly surprised when he noticed that Jika was cursed, but Jika and Dan were completely flabbergasted.

"Don't worry, I am good dealing with curses, so I will heal you. However, I would like to do some research about how curses work in this universe first."

Jika's curse was different form the curses that Yale knew, and even if it had been of a type he knew, he wouldn't have dared to treat Jika without obtaining proper knowledge about the matter.

After all, he could kill her if he was reckless.

"Thank you, sir."

Jika was still trying to understand the situation, but Dan knew that what Yale had just promised was far more valuable than any skill. It was a chance for Jika to reach immortality.

Dan wouldn't mind if Jika were just slow, but if she never reached immortality, she would end up dead just from aging.

"No need to thank me. I just have a personal grudge with people that curse others before they were born."

Yale might now be very knowledgeable about the curse, but he knew that it wouldn't work on someone that had already been born.

"Before I was born... Why would someone curse me before even being born?"

Jika couldn't believe that she had been cursed from the start because she only noticed problems after being near to become an immortal.

"This curse only prevents you from reaching immortality, so it is normal you didn't notice it until the time to reach immortality."

Yale could guess the doubts in Jika's heart.

"As for the reasons, there are a lot of probabilities, but most likely, your own parents did it or asked someone to do it. It is impossible that you could be cursed before being born without your mother noticing it. If she knew about it, I doubt that your father didn't know it, and if they never told you about it, shows that they didn't want you to know. After all, if the fact that you were cursed were known, it was possible that you escaped your fate of becoming a slave since it wouldn't be a problem of talent. I am sure that a sixth level immortal like your uncle's father-in-law could have healed you without problems years ago."

After hearing Yale's deduction, Dan and Jika could understand what Yale was meaning. Jika was born to become a slave. Her parents wanted her to become merchandise to sell, nothing else.

"Why? Why?"

Jika started to ask while crying. Although her own family wanted to turn her into a slave, she always believed that it was just because they followed the rules blindly, but at that moment, she understood that they always wanted that outcome.

"Cry if you want, but by crying, you won't solve anything. I know it is hard, but you must strive hard to continue forward. That is the path to becoming strong."

Yale spoke to motivate Jika, but it didn't work at all.

"You can't understand it! I am cursed from even before being born. My only fate is to be a slave! How can I continue living?"

Jika felt that efforts were useless since she was fated from birth to become a slave.

Dan tried to calm her since he believed that Yale could heal her, but Jika didn't calm.

"I understand it very well. After all, I was also cursed before birth and worked to erase that curse and continue forwards. The enemies of my universe cursed me in a way that was far worse than erasing talent or death. You don't understand that a short life isn't the worse outcome for someone."

For Yale losing all the emotions was far worse than death because that would be losing himself. Although if Jika were enslaved, she would also lose her emotions, with Yale there, she wouldn't be enslaved, so even with the curse, her fate wasn't so bad.

Jika stopped complaining after hearing Yale.

"What happened to those who cursed you?"

Hearing that question, Yale smiled.

"I killed them or gave them a fate worse than death. Look at this crystal, if I crush it, their whole universe will be doomed. Moreover, they have already lost their path to immortality, they can't even become as strong as you."

After hearing those words, Jika and Dan understood that Yale wasn't a saint. Against his enemies, he was heartless.

They also understood that Yale spoke seriously about having a grudge with people who curse others before birth.

"Sir, if I continue forward, I will be able to become as strong as you?"

Jika was enlightened by Yale's words. She would turn strong and return to settle accounts with her biological family.

"I can't ensure that because the path of everyone is different, but if you follow my guidance, obtaining revenge is possible."

Jika was excited after hearing those words.

"Sir, by following your guidance, you mean?"

Jika had a guess, but she couldn't believe it.

"I am asking you to become my disciple. Of course, this offer is also to your boyfriend. Dan's courage to break the rules to protect you showed that he had potential. Maybe he doesn't have the talent to train, but in life, the potential isn't just created by the talent, the personality also matters a lot. My best disciple until now is also the one with the worst talent among all. When I met him, he was just a mortal on the verge of death. However, of all my disciples, before I ascended, he had already become the strongest of all my disciples long ago."

Dan and Jika were extremely motivated by those words. They always felt that talent was everything, but after learning that talent wasn't the only thing that mattered.

"We accept!"

Both spoke at the same time because they knew that a chance to obtain such a powerful teacher wasn't something that could happen again to them.

"Very well. From now on you will call me Master Liye, understood?"

Yale was quite happy to have new disciples after so many of them died in the war. Moreover, he felt pity for Jika's situation and acknowledged Dan's personality.

After all, Yale always accepted disciples if he felt that the person deserved it, there weren't really any fixed conditions.

In that aspect, Yale was quite similar to Great God Kroh with his servants.

"Yes, Master Liye."

Both of them spoke simultaneously again, and Yale nodded satisfied.

"First let's look for a city with a library. I want to obtain more profound knowledge about the training and cursed in this universe before start to teach you."

Although training methods were restricted, there was no way that a big city wouldn't let a seventh level immortal check training methods for low leveled immortals.

"Master Liye, there is a city to the east. We were planning to go there since it belongs to a neighbor country with quite a good fame. At least they don't enslave others just because of the talent."

Dan rushed to speak since he wanted to be useful for his master.

"Very well, let's head that city for now. With your speed, it will take years, so ride the ice wolf."

Yale couldn't sense any city with his divine sense, so for Dan and Jika, the distance was incredibly great.

Jika and Dan followed Yale's orders and jumped to the wolf's back. That wolf could move at the same speed as Yale, so it was the faster Jika and Dan had moved in their lives.

While Yale's group was traveling to the city, in that city, the Governor was attending a guest.

"Information about Yale Roanmad? No idea about who he is. Anyway, even if you are a servant of a God, I don't know who your God is. Moreover, foreign Gods doesn't have any authority in this universe. Here, the truth is that I am an eighth level immortal, and you a sixth level immortal. I don't have anything to tell you, please leave."

The servant of the God felt pissed, but he knew that what the Governor said was the truth.

Moreover, although he was just the Governor of the city, the truth was that he was the strongest of the country, so even other governors obeyed him despite officially having all the same authority.

The servant of the God knew it, so he didn't dare to piss the Governor. After all, the God behind him wouldn't dare to go personally to that universe because the creator of that universe wasn't someone that the God behind that servant could offend.

"Roanmad, it has been a lot of years since I heard that surname. Is it just a coincidence? Or maybe that person is a descendant from the time when I was in that lower universe with my memories sealed?"

The Governor sighed when thinking about his experiences in that era.

"I wonder how Master Liye is doing..."

While he was thinking about the past, someone else knocked on his door.

"Enter."

After he gave his permission, one of his servants entered.

"Governor, the neighbor country gave us information about a criminal. They offer a lot of money for information about him and even more if he is killed."

The servant knew that the Governor didn't like that neighbor country, but as a servant, he couldn't reject receiving the information and passing it to the Governor.

"Let me see... Eh, this person is called Liye, another coincidence?"

Then, the Governor opened a recording of Yale killing Jika's uncle.

"Impossible... He really is Master Liye!"
