Last Wish System Chapter 3
Advertisement
Once the Innate Talent Menu opened, Yale saw in the first line the words [Last Wish System] without any description more than [Special Innate Talent].
Of course, the Last Wish System counted as Yale's Innate Talent, he already predicted it. Yale felt that was the only explanation for the system's existence, the system was a special type of Innate Talent.
Special Innate Talents could be the worst or the best, any Innate Talent which had any functionality other than directly making practice easier was considered a special type. Thus, some were very useful while others were trash, but the good thing about all Special Innate Talents was that unless the user wanted to reveal them, no one would be able to know about the existence of the Special Innate Talent.
Under that, there was only one more line [Magic Latent Talent: Lowest grade] with a simple description [The lowest kind of talent to practice magic].
Seeing that, Yale sighed. It was still possible for him to practice magic, but his talent was the worst for practicing it. However, as he was still young, he tried to be optimistic about it, thinking about how he could improve it.
The only sad thing is that he didn't have any elemental affinity. With an elemental affinity, practicing elemental magic would become easier.
[The system can show information about how to improve an Innate Talent. Does the user want to update the Innate Talent Menu?]
Yale immediately accepted on his mind, pondering why the system hadn't shown it since the start.
A new line appeared below the description.
[Upgrade: Complete the related Quest to upgrade to Low grade.]
Yale inwardly sighed.
"This should be related to the other main function, that Quest Menu, I wonder how it works."
The system improved the auxiliary function as he needed, that flexibility was something Yale liked.
It seemed that as long as the information was in the database, it was possible to add it to an auxiliary function to make it easier to review the information. Then he tried to ask other information to see if it was added to the Innate Talent Menu.
"How many grades have the Innate Talents?"
Yale already knew it because he had read it in books, but he wanted to test the system.
[The grades of Innate Talents from lowest to highest are lowest, low, middle-low, middle, middle-high, high, and perfect.]
As the system replied, Yale was even surer that he was on the correct way to understand how the system worked. After asking, that information appeared in a sidebar of the Innate Talent Menu.

Yale smiled as he proceeded with the tutorial without saying anything more. He was curious about that Quest Menu. As Yale didn't ask any more questions and stopped paying attention to the Innate Talents, the system showed the next part of the tutorial.
[This is the Quest Menu. The user will obtain quests related to him and given proper rewards for completing them. The user needs to finish the Quest manually, once the requirements for completion were met to obtain the rewards. Right now, the user has two active quests, and one completed Quest.]
Yale didn't understand how he could have completed any quest but paid attention to the Quest Menu. All the Quests he had were under the tag [Skill Quest]. The first one was called [Magical Talent upgrade: Low] and was the one Yale had completed without knowing.
Then, Yale saw the already completed requirements for the Quest. Seeing them, he understood why he had already met the requirements without doing anything.
[Obtain 6 points in Intelligence, Wisdom, and Dexterity.]
Yale already had ten points in Intelligence and Wisdom, Dexterity was lower, being only at seven points, but it still surpassed the minimum required for the Quest. Yale only thought about finishing the Quest, and the Quest ended, rewarding him.
Yale's [Magic Latent Talent: Lowest grade] became [Magic Latent Talent: Low grade]. There wasn't any doubt about that as Yale revised the Innate Talent Menu to confirm it. He never thought that upgrading an Innate Talent would be that easy, even with his age it should be significantly more difficult than that.
Yale realized that the Quest Menu's nature was completely different from the other functions. The others gave him information, which was extracted from his body and soul or from the knowledge he recollected.
However, the Quest Menu improved Yale himself. The information was very good, Yale was already satisfied with that, but the Quest Menu made his Magic Talent immediately increase, which delighted him.
"Could it be that the legacy included methods to improve the latent talent quickly? But those were lost since the ancient era. I never cared too much about my past life, but now I'm truly becoming curious about who I was."
Yale went back to the Quest Menu, the condition to improve his [Magic Latent Talent: Low grade] was still the same as for improving the Lowest grade.
There was a new quest available, [Magical talent upgrade: Middle-low], and this new Quest already met the requirements for being finished.

[Obtain 7 points in Intelligence, Wisdom, and Dexterity.]
Yale was shocked as he saw almost the same condition as the previous Quest, it only required one more point than the previous one.
"If this is a pattern, it means I can improve my talent to high grade with ten points?"
Yale was speaking to himself in his mind, but the system didn't reply to him. Then, he finished the Quest, and as he checked the Innate Talent Menu, he saw the words [Magic Latent Talent: Middle-low grade], the upgrade condition remained the same.
Yale changed to again the Quest Menu, and another quest was available under the Skill Quest tag, as expected, it was [Magical talent upgrade: Middle], but it wasn't ready for completion like the other two. However, the requirements followed Yale's guesses.
"Obtain 8 points in Intelligence, Wisdom, and Dexterity."
Yale was still missing one point in Dexterity so he couldn't complete the Quest, but he had a broad smile on his face as he confirmed his thoughts. Furthermore, having a talent at the middle-low grade, he would be considered below average, but it wasn't too bad. There were very few people with low grade talents who reached the Rank 1, Novice Magus, but with middle-low grade talents, there were a lot more.
A lot of people with the lowest or low Magical Talent chose to become archers, they would train until becoming Rank 1, Novice Warriors, and after that, they slowly train their mind until they become a 2-star mortal erudite. With their talent, they will never have a chance to become a Rank 1, Novice Magus, but their Dexterity would be much higher, and it was an important aspect to all archers.
Yale read some books speaking of a lost way to train the path of archery, which was a lot better than the present's limited mixing.
The archers were extremely popular in ancient times, their effectiveness in battle was a lot higher than normal warriors, and they were able to use simple spells, mostly to reinforce arrows or enhance movement.
Thus, even having less endurance than the warriors and less magic power than the magus, they were overall more balanced. Sadly, the training methods were lost, and the archers ended their golden age.
Yale ended his thoughts and focused on the second Quest, that was [Elemental affinity], and its requirements were quite simple, or at least simple for Yale.
[Obtain Magical Talent: Middle grade.]
Yale only had middle-low grade talent at that moment, but he only needed one more point in Dexterity to advance to middle grade, and thus also complete that Quest. However, the reward left Yale without words.
[Reward: Elemental affinity (Perfect grade).]
Even without knowing what kind of elemental affinity it was, only by being a perfect grade one it was enough to change someone's destiny, any magic related to that element would become extremely easy to practice.
Before, Yale hoped to have some elemental affinity, but he wasn't thinking of a perfect grade affinity. At that moment, he would have been very happy with a middle grade affinity.
That reward also increased the curiosity of Yale for his previous life and regretted his lack of consistent memories. The Last Wish System was a Special Innate Talent that could add and improve other innate talents, that was heaven-defying.
There was only one more Quest, and the name quickly caught the interest of Yale. [System special function: Storage], its definition was somewhat different from the previous one, but the words used were still only a few.
[Complete the first Main Chain Quest.]
[Reward: The system will add 'Storage Space' for the user to put physical objects inside.]
Yale's eyes became even more opened, storage space was a function usually found only in items, and not the cheap ones. Being able to store physical things in a separated space without any item was something only very powerful experts who understand the Space Laws could do.
Yale immediately said in his mind [Start the Main Chain Quest], based on the system's previous reactions, those words should have activated the Main Chain Quest, but the system's answer wasn't what Yale expected.
[The user doesn't meet the requirements to start the Main Chain Quest; it will start automatically when the conditions become fulfilled.]
In Yale's mind, the condition appeared just as he wanted. There was a new tag before the Skill Quest tag, the words there were [Main Chain Quest], and under them a short text explaining the conditions to unlock it.
[Complete 3 Skill Quests to unlock.]

The Crucible - (Terror Infinity Fanfic)
There has always been those that stood out from the crowd. Heroes of old, undefeated warriors and demigods battling beasts of myth. These stories are written off as fiction and folk stories of ignorant people long lost to time. Nothing to prove them true except old family stories but what if people just weren't looking in the right place. Old truths no longer apply to the modern age of science but that doesn't stop them. The system that protects and finds these great people still exists and asks the same question it always has. “Do you want more than this life? Want to live… a real life?” YES/NO Who hasn't read Terror Infinity and thought I wonder what upgrades I would choose. I love the Web Novel and Side B. I did change a lot but the basic premise is still the same. Feel free to leave thoughts and suggestions in the comments. This is my first attempt at writing and I haven't done much of it since I left University 13 years ago. This is also more of a hobby than trying to become an author but that doesn't mean I will drop it just don't expect fast releases. I will mainly work on an Arc and post the arc's chapters in groups when I finish a whole arc. Kinda like Side B used to be.
