Chapter 127: Leaving the Half-beast Town “She has been killed by the bandits, and I heard it was in a slow and painful way because she offended them. She was a trashy wife; I had been forced to marry her, that wasn’t my choice. You can ask Yale; I even knocked out her when she started speaking nonsense. I absolutely don’t think like her.”
Yale felt pity for the man; his wife was really someone who even Yale wanted to kill; Yale didn’t stop Wyba from speaking because he had also wanted that Aiwai killed her.
“Is that true?”
Aiwai asked Yale in a neutral tone. She didn’t mind killing anyone who offender Yale or Wyba in the past, but she felt that if the man was telling the truth, he was also a victim of the rules half-beast clans and she could sympathize a bit with him. Thus, if Yale spoke well about him, she would forgive the man’s life because the real offender was already dead.
“Is true. He is a good man; the only bad one was his wife. I feel pity for him to have been forced to marry such a woman. I don’t think we should act against him or other in the town. After all, they all hated that woman and the town have suffered a lot due to the recent bandit attack.”
The tiger man was about to cry after hearing Yale’s words, in the end, treating Yale well before had saved his life. It wasn’t strange killing the whole family from an offender in the Anpaes Kingdom, even eradicating the whole town wouldn’t be considered too much.
The powerful ruled in the kingdom and Aiwai was incredibly powerful, she could decide the fates of everyone in the town easily, and there was no way to resist.
Aiwai nodded after hearing Yale; since her little brother thought well from that man, she would forgive his life.
“Alright, show me her corpse, and after Wyba verified that is really her, I won’t do anything to the others in the town.”
Aiwai wouldn’t believe that woman was dead until Wyba verified that the corpse was the same as the woman who she spoke before.
The tiger girl was trying to not cry behind her father; she still loved her dead mother even if she knew her mother was a liar. That woman died due to her own arrogance, and even if she had survived to the bandits, she would still die as she offended Wyba and Yale. Those things were also something that the tiger girl knew, it was all her mother’s fault, but she couldn’t avoid feeling sad for her.
However, even loving her, she didn’t dare to open her mouth, she could feel that the other party could kill her before she noticed anything. If she hadn’t opened her eyes and changed her behavior after battling with Wyba, her chances of dying for offending Aiwai would have been too high.
The tiger man carried his wife’s corpse to the plaza, the corpse was in a terrible state, but it was possible to recognize her identity.
“Is she.”
After Wyba said that, Aiwai stored the corpse in a spatial artifact, she wouldn’t let that someone who insulted her family had a proper burial and since Yale had said that everyone hated her, no one should oppose to that.
Indeed, even the tiger man didn’t like the dishonor of letting a foreigner steal his wife’s corpse; he didn’t say anything. His daughter was also trying to remain calm, but she was almost at her limit as she wanted to cry for her mother.
Just after storing the corpse Aiwai spoke again to Yale and Wyba.
“If both of you have already finished everything here, let’s go home.”
After Aiwai said that, Yale and Wyba said goodbye to the tiger man and his daughter before Aiwai started to fly carrying one of them in each arm.
In some seconds they couldn’t be seen from the town.
The tiger man look at the ground where a small bag with some pills had appeared. In the end, the tiger man didn’t ask for the pills as he felt that the moment wasn’t good enough, but Aiwai was able to understand the state of the village, and since Yale seemed to care about them she decided to give them some low-rank pills.
Of course, even those pills that were almost trash for her were enough to save lives in that town.
“You should remember this day. If Yale hadn0t obtained a good impression from me before, we would have died right now. In this life, it is important to make more allies than enemies. Showing strength to others and having a good reputation is important, but if you only make enemies, you will have a bad end for sure.”
The tiger man spoke to his daughter to be sure that she understood the situation well, it was important having confidence and showing strength to others, but despising others and making enemies wasn’t good for having a good and long life.
The tiger girl nodded, she didn’t hate Yale and Wyba, both of them had helped her in the battle against the bandits. Wyba carried with her the whole fight, and without Yale, her father would be dead.
At that moment, she only wanted to turn stronger to be able to survive any dangerous situation in the future. Furthermore, she swore that she would never act like her mother and make enemies with everyone.
Aiwai stopped after some minutes; they were already far from the town as she was extremely quick.
“Now, you can transform.”
“You stopped only for that? I can do it after reaching our destination there is no reason to stop only for this…”
Yale wasn’t able to understand why Aiwai was in a rush to see him transformed. He had accepted transforming, but for him the more it was delayed, the better.
“Even with my speed, I will need a week to reach home. It is easier to carry the body of a little kid than your current one, so transform right now.”
Yale knew that Aiwai was lying, with her strength she would be able to carry people far heavier than the current Yale without problems.
The truth was that she just didn’t want to wait to see Yale’s transformation.
“Alright…”
Yale take out some clothes from his Storage Space, he had thought about taking different shapes in his travel, and he had clothes for different body sizes. However, he had never thought about transforming into such a young appearance. Thus, even the smallest clothes he had would be rather big to him after transforming.
Yale executed Shape Shift and put his new clothes, they were too big for his current body, but that was the best he had.
After that, Yale suddenly felt that he couldn’t breathe, Aiwai had jumped to hug him, and she was hugging him too strong.
“Sis, I can’t breathe.”
Fortunately, Yale was able to use Spiritual Sense to communicate with her, and she stopped. Of course, she wouldn’t hug Yale to his death, so even without saying anything Yale would have been safe, but being unable to breathe wasn’t comfortable.
“Sorry, your current appearance with such big clothes is too cute that I couldn’t restrain myself.”
Yale was seriously regretting hadn’t put some smaller clothes in his Storage Space before leaving Trade City. He didn’t like to be called cute and being hugged like that felt too weird.
At that moment, Yale’s face was red due to having being hugged too strong, but there was another reason; Yale was still a teenager even if he had taken the appearance of a kid, it was impossible to avoid any shame after being hugged by Aiwai with his face suffocated in her chest.
To Aiwai, he was a little kid and his little brother, but for Yale even if he was calling Aiwa as his sister, she was a woman who he had just met that same day. Yale could accept her on the outside, but it wasn’t easy to accept her on the inside.
Moreover, Yale didn’t have his past life’s memories nor any experience with women on his current life, so he was still rather weak to such acts from a foreigner woman towards him.
While Yale was thinking about his mental health if Aiwai would always act like before, she had put Wyba at his side and was looking at them with a pleased expression.
“Very good, this fits my image of a cute pair of twins.”
She was very happy to have found at the same time a young brother and a young sister, she had wanted both, and she obtained both at the same time, she couldn’t believe her good luck.
Yale felt weird looking at Wyba with his current aspect as both had almost the same height and he was used to carrying Wyba in her both forms, so having a similar height as Wyba was very strange to him.
Without any advertence, Aiwai hugged both of them at the same time and started to fly again, that time she ensured that both were able to breathe well while being hugged.
Wyba was feeling happy traveling like that, but Yale felt it too humiliating, he was starting to regret his choice, but when thinking about Wyba and the benefits, he managed to barely support it.
