Chapter 310: Thousand Frost Wolves Company
Yale didn't know anything about the current state of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company, but he knew that buying that ship shouldn't have been cheap.
Moreover, Yale liked the fact the company bought the ship because he would rather travel in a ship owned by himself than in a lent ship. After all, if a lent ship were to get damaged, he would feel bad for Tar, but he never hoped that the Zuatania Merchant Association was willing to sell that ship.
As for the losses of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company, if the ship got damaged, Yale didn't care at all. He still didn't forgive them for selling those plushies of himself without authorization.
"That is also good, I am going to see them. Are the company still situated in the same place?"
Tar shook his head after hearing Yale's question.
"They ordered to construct a new building, but it is easy to detect, it is the tallest building of the Trade City."
Tar was still in awe of how much the Thousand Frost Wolves Company improved in the last years. At that point, even the Zuatania Merchant's Association didn't have any authority on them. Tar had never seen someone so good in business since his master.
"Oh, it seems that those two are doing it better than I expected."
That was the only part that Yale said in a loud voice, but he continued inside his mind.
"It is clear that they turned very rich selling those plushies. My shame turned into money for them, I need to teach those two a lesson before departing."
Then, Yale bid farewell to Tar and left the building. Yale didn't even need two seconds to know where the building constructed by the Thousand Frost Wolves Association was situated, it was impossible to fail to see it.
Moreover, it was possible to read the name of the company put in the building even since Yale's position, they were advertising the company in a very huge way, literally.
Moreover, in each of the sides of the building, there was a huge picture, the one in front of Yale was a Wyba's picture with enough size to being clearly seen even from outside the city.
Yale could only see that face of the building and a bit of another one, which seemed to depict a person and a wolf, which made Yale have a bad premonition.
After nearing the building, he confirmed that the other picture was of him with Wyba in the head, like in the plushie bought by Nurvey.
"I need to increase the beating by a fold."
Yale didn't know what was in the other two faces of the building, but he chose to not investigate it, or he would maybe end killing those two while beating them.
Yale continued advancing until entering the building, he let Wyba remain in the Storage Space for fear of people jumping at him at first sight. However, Yale himself was already well-known enough, so even without Wyba, he was recognized.
"The Silent Healer!"
"If the Silent Healer is here, Wyba should be near!"
"Where is Wyba? I need to hug the real one!"
"Fool, it is better to hug the Silent Healer and Wyba at the same time."
"You two are not aiming high enough. Silent healer, do you need a girlfriend? If you don't need it, I can also be your maid!"
"Shameless! But if you are interested, I am also willing to be your girlfriend or your maid!"
Those shouts only intensified as the seconds passed and there was already uncountable woman rushing towards him without control. None of those women were strong enough to harm Yale even if all of them clashed against him at the same time, but Yale feared to hurt them, so he teleported to the next floor.
That kind of blind and rash teleportation was dangerous, but fortunately, Yale had the system's aid and the luck that the next floor didn't have too many things on the area he appeared.
"I was popular before, but this had reached another level despite not being here."
The lower floors were for customers, the one in which Yale had appeared was a floor reserved for events, making that there wasn't a lot of people there at that moment.
Yale activated Stealth and continued his way to the upper floors where he hoped to find Julie or Oscro.
There was an automatic elevator made with complex formations that should have also need an insane amount of money to make, but Yale only walked through the stairs because he would be discovered and trapped if he used the elevator.
After the fiftieth floor, the customers couldn't enter as that area was for storage and offices. There was some security on the fiftieth floor, but Yale's Stealth worked perfectly, and even if he was discovered, with his identity there was no way someone would block him. He feared more his fans than the security guards.
Yale continued checking the next floors, but he still didn't find Julie or Oscro. After a while, Yale finally reached the last floor, the hundredth floor.
In that floor, Yale finally sensed the presence of Julie and Oscro. That room was perfectly isolated with formations, so not even Yale was able to sense their presence until he entered into the hundredth floor.
Before going to meet those two, Yale made Wyba leave the Storage Space and put her on his head and stopped to use Stealth.
"You two really made a tall building."
Yale spoke in a loud voice while entering the room where Oscro and Julie were speaking.
Both of them were utterly shocked when they saw Yale, but the reasons for their shock wasn't because he appeared suddenly, but because someone had just told them that Yale would arrive at Trade City soon.
"Yale, you seem well..."
Oscro had difficulties to say those words because he was feeling that something bad was about to happen. Yale saw that Oscro had fattened quite a bit in those years, making him look uglier than before.
"Don't be so scared, I don't bite."
After noticing how scared Oscro was and then also thought.
"However, I will beat you. Maybe you are developing some kind of affinity to the Time Law, or maybe you just developed a good intuition for danger. It should be the latter, Oscro has just reached the 2-star Apprentice Rank, without a bloodline, a master, or a legacy there is no way he had something to do with the Time Law."
With Oscro's talent having reached that level with his age was something that he had accomplished thanks to eating countless resources. As for Julie who had better talent and a legacy, she had reached the 6-star Practitioner Rank in both paths, despite nor training too much.
"Yale, you really surprised me. When we were told that you will come soon, we didn't expect it to be with so much accuracy."
Julie stood up with a smile on his face while seeing Yale instead of fearing him like Oscro. It wasn't that she couldn't predict Yale's anger, but she had her own plans.
"Someone told you that I was coming? That doesn't matter now. I believe that two of you know about what I want to talk."
Yale had a smile as bright as Julie's, but for Oscro, Yale seemed a devil.
"I can explain everything about those plushies, it was for your sake."
Yale didn't know what kind of excuse Julie thought had, but he decided to hear it.
"Most of the money obtained from those plushies was used to kill the members of an Organization called True Empire and to buy that ship for you. We did it to help you."
Julie's words were true but not sincere. It was true that the amount of money expended on those two things was comparable to the net earnings of Yale's plushies, but the plushies were made before they knew anything about the True Empire or that Yale would need that ship in the future.
"Oh, did you already know that I needed a ship? Probably the same person who said that I was coming was the one who told you about that. However, there is something weird in your explanation."
At that moment, Julie decided to play her trump card.
"Indeed, we used some money in something completely wasteful, I tried to stop Oscro, but he insisted. He... tried to sell some plushies of himself, that provoked a lot of loses to the company, the number of sold ones until now is still zero."
Yale looked towards Oscro, who felt sold by Julie. However, Julie's words were also true even if that didn't have any relationship with Yale's plushies. Moreover, as Yale though when he saw his own plushie in Nurvey's room, there were also Julie's plushies on the lower floors, so she didn't discriminate against anyone when making them and were just made for profit.
"Oscro, do you have any explication to waste so much money earned of selling my image without my permission?"
Oscro trembled.
"No... I... it isn't like that... I mean..."
Oscro was unable to complete any sentence, and Yale only widened his smile.
"You need some beating."
