Chapter 334: Reaching the Western Continent

Everyone was excited while the ship neared the western continent. They had always been traveling to the west, so the group had decided to call that continent like that since they didn’t know if it had any other name.

Since it was considered impossible crossing the ocean at the east of the Revgen Empire, Yale’s group had always headed to the west to reach the other continent, and since the only thing they knew for sure of the continent was that it was on the west, that was the name they thought.

As the ship neared the land of the western continent, everyone saw it better, and at first sight, there wasn’t anything strange on it because there wasn’t any city or building on their sight, it was just the natural coast.

“It seems that there isn’t any town or city in this area, but this is good for us.”

Given that they came from another continent, it would be easy for them to have misunderstandings if others were to see them nearing with their huge ship.

Although Yale knew that probably they would end up being in some conflict, he wanted to minimize it, and for that, it was better to meet the natives personally rather than being discovered when nearing the coast.

“I can’t wait for exploring the western continent. It sounds like an adventure of those I have read in the novels.”

Mercer was greatly excited about that because he liked exploring and he had already explored the whole ship.

“I have only read about the land. I can’t wait to explore it by myself!”

Merumi, who was at Mercer’s side, was even more excited because she had never seen a continent before, much less explored it. Moreover, Mercer had recommended her some books, so she was also quite knowledgeable regarding novels.

Yale couldn’t say that he didn’t understand them because he was also an avid reader and understood how exciting could be for two kids that had never explored the outside world something like exploring a foreign continent. However, being their master, Yale needed to play the role of the evil part at that moment.

“I am sorry, but neither of you will explore the continent. You two are still too weak right now, and we don’t know what kind of dangers there are on the western continent.”

Mercer was already a 5-star Practitioner, which was a lot compared with his previous self, but it was still too low for exploring an unknown land. As for Merumi, she was even quicker than Mercer and already reached the 6-star Expert, but Yale still considered that it was too low.

“Why? We are weak compared to master, but we have improved a lot...”

Mercer was unable to understand why his master was that strict with that matter when he knew that Yale understood very well the allure of exploring a foreign land.

“Although my healing capabilities are enough to save you as long as you are alive, I can’t do anything if you die on a sneak attack or if your soul dissipated due to a soul attack.”

In the first case at most Yale could force them to reincarnate, but Yale was still unable to control where and when would they reincarnate, so it would be hard for them to meet again, and even after meeting, the other party probably would have already become a different person.

On the second case, if the soul dissipated there wasn’t anything that Yale could do, if it were just a damaged soul, reincarnation would work, but a completely dissipated soul had no way to reincarnate.

Since Yale didn’t have knowledge regarding the inhabitants of the western continent, he didn’t dare to put his disciples in danger.

“This...”

Mercer and Merumi spoke at the same time after hearing Yale’s words because they didn’t know how to reply to that. After all, they had to admit that Yale’s words were true, and that Yale had forbidden them to follow him in the exploration because he worried for their lives.

“You two aren’t the only ones who will need to wait inside my dimension. There will be more people waiting there than coming with me.”

Yale wasn’t just worried for Mercer and Merumi, everyone in the ship was included in his worries, and unless Yale had confidence in them surviving a sneak attack, he didn’t plan to let them accompany him unless he knew that the area was completely safe.

The others had also improved a lot in those months, but not everyone had a monstrous growth like Mercer and Merumi.

The two who had advanced the lest were Kaigur and Serka but for different motives.

Kaigur’s bloodline wasn’t helping him too much, so even though he had managed to become an 8-star Practitioner, there wasn’t too much difference with his previous power.

As for Serka, she managed to become a 9-star Magus Practitioner and a 1-star Warrior Practitioner in a short time, but then she stopped forcefully because of something that baffled even Yale.

They were in a dangerous expedition to an unknown land, but Serka got pregnant three months ago.

No one discovered it immediately since Yale didn’t use his Divine Eyes constantly to check others, but once Serka said that she was probably pregnant, Yale confirmed it instantly.

That day, Yale got quite angry with Serka and Kermu because the situation wasn’t for choosing to have children even though Serka and Kermu were an adult married couple and in normal circumstances, there wouldn’t have been anything bad on it.

Serka decided to stop training since that moment, so her advancement was stagnated compared to others.

However, even if Serka had trained hard, she wouldn’t have met the standards for joining the exploration since Yale had set a minimum of Master Rank.

Wyba and Lar had both reached the 7-star Elder Rank in those months, but even if they hadn’t advanced, they could have still accompanied Yale. However, others that also had huge advancements like Aizu, who went from the 1-star Practitioner to the 3-star Veteran in those months, could only sigh and accept to wait on the Storage Space after the exploration started.

In fact, Aizu, who was among the weakest before starting the travel, had advanced those like Kermu and George that only reached the 1-star Veteran Rank and Zack who reached the 9-star Expert Rank.

Besides them, the only other person who didn’t meet the standards was Julie who had just reached the 7-star Expert Rank recently.

Those huge advancements were mostly because of the guidance of Yale regarding training and the food made from sea monsters that Aiwai prepared on the Storage Space. There weren’t a lot of attacks of sea monsters, and since those who attacked didn’t pose a threat to them, so the sea monsters turned into food. However, it was clear that Yale’s students received more guidance than the others and their advancements were clearly different.

The most surprising advancement was from Shirk who went from an 8-star Expert to a 9-star Master, and it seemed to be because the food made from the sea monsters had great effects on him. Of course, Shirk had never slacked in his training.

Shirk was the only member who was at the Master Rank, since the rest who were on that Rank had already advanced, including Nurvey, who was at the 4-star Elder Rank at that moment.

However, the most important advancements were those from Swordmad and Sebe because both had reached the Sage Rank although they were still starless since only advanced recently to it. Moreover, thanks to the pointers of Yale and Sebe, Swordmad managed to also increase his magus Path to the peak of the Grandmaster Rank, and after practicing with Yale and Lar with swordsmanship, he even reached the first threshold in the Sword Law just after reaching the Sage Rank.

Swordmad was talented from the start, but he always lacked people with similar talent to spar making that his advancement was far slower than it should have been, but since Sebe and Swordmad were at the same Rank it solved one of the problems. Moreover, Yale and Lar were reincarnated experts, and their swordsmanship was enough to force Swordmad to make him improve his own swordsmanship when sparring.

The two wolfs had also improved quite a bit reaching the 8-star Grandmaster Rank and the 8-star Elder Rank. Of course, Yale will be traveling with them as they serve as mounts, for scouting, and were also a good battle force.

Finally, Ange had reached the 1-star Grandmaster Rank in the Magus Path, but she chose to wait in the Storage Space with the others instead of following Yale because she knew that her body was too weak.

The ship neared the shore until finally stopping at some distance since the water wasn’t profound enough to let the ship continue advancing.

“As I already told, those under the Master Rank shall now enter my dimension and wait there. The rest who can’t fly, you shall sit on the back of the wolves, and they will bring you to the shore.”

Shirk, Lar, and Nurvey were the only ones in the group incapable of flying, so they jumped on the Frost Wolves, and after they started to fly, Yale stored the ship with everyone else in the Storage Space.

With their flying speed, it was only a moment reaching the shore and finally stepping in the western continent.
