Chapter 183: Lukra
“How long has it been? About ten years now?”
Ten years ago, Sian was dragged into Apental. If Lagaope had found him then it would have been ten years. Lagaope shook his head.
“Huh? Then how did you know about me when I was in Lagran? Or Con-Tian?”
Rumors of Sian had spread at the time so it could have been within that time frame. Lagaope’s organization had a network of people working for them throughout the continent so it was possible.
But he still shook his head.
“Then when?”
“Huh?”
Sian was dumbfounded by the unexpected words. Lagaope smiled.
“Uh… I heard that it’s to measure the Bander Rating and see how talented the baby is…”
“…”
“Hmph.”
Stiel answered instead.
“It’s to calculate the blood ratio between a human’s and a monkey’s.”
“And they were all reported to you, I a.s.sume.”
Lagaope grinned.
“So, that’s how you found those who would be your people.”
Lagaope nodded.
“So… you were protecting me then?”
“So, you must have been watching me too.”
“I think it was 82. My jealous brother and sister almost killed me because of it.”
Stiel frowned as she spoke. Lagaope then turned to Sian.
“Hmm. I think Sian would have gotten at least 99 or 100?”
Stiel guessed as the number was a percentage so she thought 100 would be the maximum. But Lagaope shook his head again.
Stiel was shocked. “Huh? Didn’t you say it was a percentage?”
“Then what about 497? It’s not like I should have 5 times the blood of others or anything. Or am I like descendant of the War G.o.d or Sun G.o.d? Or a hidden son?” Sian asked, but Lagaope laughed.
“…”
“Yeah.”
“Huh? Didn’t you just use yours?”
Lagaope shook his head.
“But what?” Stiel asked.
“What do you mean?”
“What… oh, right. Why are you still alive?”
“I heard that people with the seal die when the Divine Blood leader dies. Why are you still alive?”
Sian never thought about Lagaope’s age as people with the seal could gain immortality as long as the Divine Blood leader lived. But this would mean Lagaope had lied. It was either Lorvall was not the last of the Divine Blood or the people with the seal didn’t die.
Lagaope laughed.
Lagaope answered.
“Isn’t that the same thing?”
Stiel wasn’t familiar with either concept so she thought it was the same thing.
“…”
“Huh? You don’t mean…”
Sian began to realize what Lagaope was saying.
Lagaope continued his story.
Lagaope tried going to the forbidden land after he gave all the information he had about becoming an Alpha to Lorvall. But he didn’t expect much as he didn’t have much time left to live. 1000 years had pa.s.sed outside but he only had been in for 150 years. Yet, he only managed to become a Baron which did not grant him a longer life span. It seemed like he only had about 10 years left at most.
It would’ve been good if he had received the seal from Lorvall, but Lorvall was using his entire seal to control the situation at hand so Lagaope descended south without it as an adventurer. He did not have that much time left so he thought it would be nice to go on an adventure through the forbidden lands before he died.
That was when he was kidnapped.
Lagaope was pa.s.sing by the roads that went around the Mountain of Extreme when he was kidnapped and dragged into the mountain. Luckily, the power of the kidnappers allowed Lagaope to withstand the effect of the mountain. After the higher rank of kidnappers read through Lagaope’s memories, they moaned. They were using different words, but one word came through Lagaope’s head through a telepathic power.
and all…>

Lagaope couldn’t understand what they were saying so he began asking questions.
Lukras, the followers of Gran-Ra, began explaining their side of history.
