"They deserved that, although the king could have used the same method as in the training camp to show everyone the process, I wanted to see how those two bastards were punished."

Aiwai was the one with the highest hatred for those two, she liked their punishment, but she would have preferred being present to laugh at their face or at least saw it.

Aiwai had heard about the inexistent expert who asked for a punishment for those two, but when she asked if the expert went in person, Sebe replied that the expert had sent only an incarnation. After hearing that, Aiwai assumed that Yale was using some skill inherited from his past life to create that incarnation and fool the king.

So, for Aiwai, Yale was the one who managed to punish those bastards while fooling the whole royal family, but she also thought that if Yale had said it to her beforehand, she would have been able to see the punishment in person.

Wyba hadn\'t understood the intentions of those two bastards, but she knew that they were bad people due to how Aiwai and Yale reacted towards them. Thus, although she also didn\'t understand the meanings of the punishment, she liked it because the others also liked it.

Even Shirk was happy about that; those two had also spoken bad words about him due to his beast-like appearance.

"Thank you. I know that they were punished due to their acts towards your family, but I also feel better after seeing them punished."

Shirk was respectful towards Yale as much as he was towards Sebe. After all, it was thanks to Yale\'s advice that he survived and managed to start working for Sebe. Moreover, he had no doubts that Yale had some powerful backer who could move even the royal family to be friendly with them.

"Shirk, you are my guard, and thus, I won\'t let others speak badly about you. Moreover, the Twin Eunuchs have offended a lot of people in the past; you aren\'t the only one. I am sure that they would have a rough time from now on. After all, having lost their status as princes, they couldn\'t act against someone who works for a prince without authorization."

In particular, Sebe\'s servants and friends were the ones who suffered the most by the words of the Twin Eunuchs because Sebe didn\'t mind too much about bloodlines as long as he liked the personality and strength of the other party. Sebe was sure that all his servants would make a party after knowing that punishment.

"Shirk, are you bothered that much by your bloodline? If you become strong enough, others wouldn\'t dare to laugh even if your bloodline purity is low."

Yale didn\'t have a bad impression of Shirk, and as Shirk worked for Sebe, he thought that giving some encouraging words was alright.

"Even if I become strong in rank thanks to the resources of prince Sebe, I will still lose to those at the same rank with higher purity than me. Prince Sebe is kind enough to hire me as his guard, but for most people I am useless."

Shirk knew very well that without any support he was already at his limit, he surpassed the limits of his bloodline time ago.

"Maybe this can work... Shirk, I am planning to start some bloodline research, but I haven\'t decided the objective yet. If you and Sebe are willing, I can focus my research on improving your bloodline. Although I can\'t ensure success."

The sub-quest was too vague about obtaining knowledge about bloodlines and Yale didn\'t know how to start, but helping Shirk seemed a good option. Altering bloodlines was always risky, and the methods differ for everyone, a method to help Shirk wouldn\'t need to be useful for others with similar bloodlines. Thus, there wasn\'t any sure method to improve the bloodline quality, there was always a risk, but for someone like Shirk who had such a big complex about his bloodline, those risks weren\'t important.

Failures in improving the bloodline quality were the reasons for a lot of clans to end with useless bloodlines, increasing the power could be done with resources, but the quality is always more difficult to improve, even clans who had some standardized methods found that the method didn\'t have the same effect on everyone inside the clan.

"Yale, are you really planning to start a research about bloodlines?"

Sebe didn\'t expect that Yale was planning something like that. Bloodline research was something done by old people with a lot of free time in order to help their children or people who did it to improve their own bloodlines. However, Yale didn\'t have clear where to start, so it wasn\'t that his objective was different than the usual ones, his objective was undefined from the start. In Sebe\'s eyes, Yale wanted to do a research for the research itself and not for any objective.

"Yes, I need to do a research about bloodlines. Although I can\'t tell you the reasons."

Yale wouldn\'t say anything about the quests to Sebe, but he knew that Sebe would misunderstand it for some orders of that inexistent but still existed expert behind him. That expert, disregarding who was in reality, had turned into a great scapegoat to anything Yale couldn\'t explain.

"I understand, you don\'t need to explain anything. If Shirk wants to participate in your research, I don\'t have any problem with it. Shirk, what do you want to do? That is your bloodline; you have the right to choose freely."

Sebe could have forced Shirk, but he wasn\'t that type of person. If Shirk accepted, Sebe would lose Shirk\'s help for the time the research, but to Sebe, using one of his guards to please that expert behind Yale was worth of it, and Shirk also had a lot of possibilities of being benefitted from it.

From the start, Sebe didn\'t need any personal guards; he was stronger than all of them, he just created that group of guards because he wanted to give a chance to those people who he recruited as his guards.

Moreover, Sebe thought that although Yale would be the one doing the research, that expert should help him a bit, so even if failure, there shouldn\'t be too many problems for Shirk.

"I will be honored to be able to help in your research."

Shirk kneeled in front of Yale, although Yale had said that he couldn\'t ensure success, just the chance was enough for Shirk.

"Perfect, I will ask Sebe for calling you when I start the research."

Shirk was only a servant of Sebe, so if Yale managed to help him that was good, but if he failed and Shirk\'s bloodline worsened, he wouldn\'t feel guilty either as Shirk himself chose to participate in the research knowing that failure was a possibility.

"Don\'t need to ask me. The identification tokens had a call function although the range is quite short. Usually, you can only contact me, but with my authorization, you can also contact other people who obtained the token from me. Thus, just contact Shirk whenever you need him."

Sebe didn\'t have any problem allowing Yale to contact Shirk directly; he also allowed the tokens to be able to communicate among Yale\'s family.

That function was originally made for the people related to a member of a royal family to be able to contact them in case of necessity. The members of the royal family also had a token capable of communicating with all their servants and people under their protection.

However, sometimes a coordination between servants was needed, so the possibility of communicating with others with the same kind of token was added under the restriction of needing the authorization of the one who gave them the token to use it.

Sebe was interested in that research Yale was planning because there were only benefits for himself. If Yale was successful, Sebe would have a better guard and would have pleased the expert behind Yale, but in case of failure, Shirk\'s bloodline was already extremely bad even it turned worse the difference would be difficult to see. There wasn\'t a real impact for Sebe having a guard with a bit worse bloodline because he didn\'t need any guard from the start.

"Oh, that is pretty useful. Then I will contact him directly. Thank you, Sebe."

Being able to contact Shirk directly would make everything easier to Yale, having to contact Sebe every time would be bothersome.

"You don\'t need to thank me. If you need anything else just tell me."

Sebe was always ready to help his friends and especially to help Yale who was his friend but also someone who even the king wanted Sebe to be friendly with.

"Then, I will need a lot of bloodline samples from different types; don\'t bother about quality, for now, I will focus more on quantity."

Yale knew that with Sebe\'s help obtaining the samples would be easier, so he didn\'t hesitate in accepting the help, and Sebe nodded because that was easy to do.

After that, Sebe left the Bloodline Fruit Tree in the inner garden as Yale had told him and then he left accompanied with Shirk. Sebe still needed to explain a lot of things to Shirk as his new personal guard. Thus, he couldn\'t remain with Yale\'s family for more time.
