Chapter 278 - Kurk Clan



At that time, Kermu reported everything to his grandfather, including how Kreg and his group had tried to kill him and how Yale remained behind to help them to escape.

Moreover, since he also told that Yale was Serka’s cousin, the impression of the Kurk Clan towards him improved a lot because of the close relationship between Kermu and Serka.

In fact, if the Larken Clan hadn’t stepped out when the Zhan Clan issued the bounty to catch Yale, the Kurk Clan would have done it.

The Zhan Clan and the Kurk Clan always possessed a good relationship, but in the last years with the growth of the power of the radical faction that opposed to Serka’s faction, the relationship between the two noble clans had deteriorated a lot.

The increase of influence of that radical faction, which internally called themselves the True Zhan Clan, provoked that Serka married Kermu before than they had originally planned because, in that way, she could seek protection in the Kurk Clan. She almost died a few times since she returned from the Special Realm, and all these so-called accidents weren’t accidents at all.

However, Serka didn’t have proofs to incriminate the culprits, so she could just flee to the Kurk Clan to avoid losing her life.

Thus, Serka ended marrying Kermu when both of them were just thirteen; marrying at that age wasn’t something unheard in the noble families, but it wasn’t common either. However, since both parties wanted to marry and Serka’s life was in danger in the Zhan Clan, no one bothered about their ages.

There were also members of the True Empire in the Kurk Clan even if the others hadn’t noticed about them yet. However, their strength inside the clan was too low due to the management of the current clan head of the Kurk Clan.

Kermu was the grandson of one of the strongest elders of the clan, who was at the Grandmaster Rank, which give him a lot of status given that he was also extremely talented.

Moreover, after returning from the Special Realm and showing his talent, the Clan Head himself had taken Kermu as a disciple. The clan head was at the peak of the Sage Rank, so his help had been extremely important to Kermu’s training.

After those six years, Kermu was already an 8-star Apprentice while Serka had just barely reached the 1-star Apprentice. In fact, if it weren’t because Serka was Kermu’s wife and thanks to that she had obtained some pointers from Kermu’s master, she wouldn’t have reached the Apprentice Rank yet.

The talent was important when training, but the resources and a good teacher were also important. That was why people were able to turn mad for a chance to become a disciple of powerful experts that were good at teaching.

Although officially the marriage of Kermu and Serka was a political one, everyone knew that both loved each other, so the clan head of the Kermu Clan decided to help Serka a bit as a gift to his disciple.

The help hadn’t been a lot, but even the members of the Kurk Clan would dream with that bit of help from their clan head, so it was a precious gift.

Kermu and Seka lived together since their wedding, and both were quite happy with their lives. However, they were a bit worried by the state of the noble clans lately.

“The Larken Clan have already closed his doors for a lot of time. I wonder if something happened to them. I heard that they had lost a lot of people on a mission recently. Almost all the men of their outer clan died, and only one person returned, something seems off.”

Kermu spoke to Serka who was leaning on Kermu’s shoulder. Both of them had grown up, Kermu was a handsome man and Serka a beautiful woman, both were considered a perfect match by the people of the noble clans.

“I don’t know. They are quite peculiar with their customs, so I doubt that we should worry if they are only isolated from the outside. Those deaths are indeed strange, but probably is the same case as with my accidents and there isn’t any proof of anything, thinking about that topic, it is losing time. I am more worried by Hyrk because he hasn’t contacted us lately.”

Hyrk was one of their friends, and they maintain the contact quite frequently, but the Hyeran Clan sometimes made the things difficult to Hyrk and his sister making that he wouldn’t have any time to spare to contact them.

“The Hyeran Clan treat him quite badly, but there is nothing we can do to solve that. After all, he is a member of the Hyeran Clan, and as members of the noble families, we shouldn’t interfere with the private affairs of other noble clans. If we try to help him, we will only end making it everything more difficult for him.”

Kermu was also worried by Hyrk, but he understood very well how the noble clans worked and if he tried to help Hyrk the relationship between the Kurk Clan and the Hyeran Clan would worsen and Hyrk’s problems would only increase in the long term.

Serka was the wife of the disciple of the head of the Kurk Clan, so it was normal if the Kurk Clan protected her from the acts of the radical faction of the Zhan Clan, but there was no way that the Kurk Clan would help Hyrk despite being Kermu’s friend.

Before being able to say anything else, a token on Kermu’s pocket reacted.

“It seems that Nurvey is here. We shall go to receive her to the portal.”

Nurvey used a lot that portal to go to the Kurk Clan to meet with Kermu and Serka because someone of her position couldn’t go by the streets like the rest of the people because it would be dangerous for her. After all, she was the princess of the Imperial Family and had been appointed to be the successor of Revgen; the Imperial Family wouldn’t risk putting her in any kind of danger.

Thus, that token was created to notify Kermu and Serka when someone appeared in the portal because it was almost sure that when someone appeared, it would be Nurvey; in the last thousand years, every time the portal activated one of the people appearing was Nurvey.

After all, despite the Imperial Clan having portals to all the noble clans, they couldn’t use it without the permission of Revgen, and Nurvey was only allowed to use due to her position and the fact she had a close relationship with Kermu.

A token like that already existed in every noble clan to detect when someone appeared from the portal, but the token was in possession of the Clan Head. The one Kermu had in his pocket was a copy created by his master.

“It had also been a long time since Nurvey came to visit us. Let’s go!”

Serka was extremely happy to hear that Nurvey had come to visit them because Nurvey was her best friend and they had been together since they were little.

Kermu and Serka stood up and went to the place where the portal was situated.

Their mansion in Kurk City was near the hidden portal; that as the housing that was the closest to the clan head’s mansion, and the portal was in the area belonging to the clan head’s mansion.

They ran towards the portal because they didn’t want to make Nurvey wait for them, so they reached the portal very quickly.

When they appeared in front of the portal, they saw Nurvey, but she was together with a man and a woman.

It wasn’t strange that someone appeared with Nurvey, but Kermu and Serka stared at the man who was at Nurvey’s side with disbelief in their eyes.

Yale had grown up, but they could easily recognize him after looking at him; Yale was the person who had made them worry the most in the last six years since he disappeared to allow them to flee from the Special Realm.

“Yale, you…”

Kermu was without words when he saw his friend appearing from the portal, that was a great surprise.

On the other hand, Serka who originally planned to run to hug Nurvey decided to change her plan and ran to hug Yale. After all, Yale was her cousin, and she even considered him like a little brother since she had no siblings.

“Kermu, Serka, both of you look very well. I know that I am a bit late, but congratulations on your wedding.”
