Last Wish System Chapter 4
Advertisement
As Yale read it, he understood that he was left with only one path to advance, he needed to increase at least one point in Dexterity.
"Increasing my Dexterity by one point shouldn't be difficult, I can think of several ways to do it, but I want to do it the most optimal way. If I can increase it to ten points instead and the Quests follow the same pattern, I can obtain a High-grade Magical Talent."
The system immediately replied.
[The most optimal way for the user to increase the Dexterity points would be to practice mortal's archery. At the same time, it will also increase the Strength points.]
Indeed, the traditional archery of mortals was very good to train Strength and Dexterity, and as he could only increase his Dexterity to continue using the Quest Menu, it was a very good option. Furthermore, he wanted to increase his Strength points because he felt ashamed of having only one point.
The system seemed to know that as it suggested the mortal's archery. Usually, only the ones who want to become archers trained mortal's archery as a foundation.
However, it wasn't unheard that some kids wanted to train it before knowing their Innate Talents as it was still good training for the body and less painful than other mortal's training like the sword or the spear, although it was looked down upon just because of that by the pure warriors.
"It seems that I need to start practicing archery, tomorrow I will ask the servants to apply for the clan's archery lessons."
After saying those words, Yale was determined. He stood up and finished paying attention to the Last Wish System, and at the same moment, the system reacted.
[The tutorial has finished. The user can repeat the tutorial at any moment.]
As Yale expected, the tutorial had already explained all the functions of the system, so the tutorial ended. He also suspected that when the system was to unlock more functions, there would be a proper explanation for them.
Yale didn't want to spend more time in the library and went back to his room. Sadly, one of the servants caught him, and Yale got scolded. Yale didn't mind because he was still processing the things that happened to him and making plans for the future.

The next morning, Yale told his servants that he wanted to practice archery. The servants were surprised, but they helped Yale to request to join the lessons without asking anything. That was the relationship between Yale and the servants, there was no affection between them. For the servants to attend Yale was only their work, nothing more.
Yale knew that even though he already requested it, he wouldn't be able to start right at that moment. His position wasn't good enough to directly enter some archery lesson without previous notice, it would take around a week for him to be able to start practicing archery.
However, even if he obtained immediate access to an archery class, he wouldn't be able to shoot an arrow with his puny strength, so he decided to use that time to exercise his body.
Yale tried to do some pushups in his room, but he wasn't even able to complete one before being exhausted.
"It seems that the system wasn't lying in the evaluation of my Strength points, I'm too weak. I always thought that doing pushups was an easy task when I read about it, but my body is completely unable to do even one..."
Of course, that wasn't enough to stop Yale. He didn't have any equipment to train, so he focused on basic exercises, even if they were extremely tiring for him.
On the second day, Yale asked the system to inform him when any of his stats changed. The system set a notification alert to stat changes, but at the end of the day, Yale's stats were still the same.
At the same time, there was an unstoppable gossip within the clan, the clan's bookworm had become crazy for physical training.
On the fifth day, Yale's training continued without results, so his stats remained the same.
Therefore, when the servants told him that he received a letter from his older sister, he stopped training. Yale's older sister was the only one in the whole clan that truly cared about Yale, and she also the only one Yale cared about within the clan.
Her name was Ange Roanmad, a truly dazzling figure even in the whole of Nacesai City. She was only five years older than Yale, but she already was a 4-star mortal erudite. Furthermore, she had a high-grade Magical Talent and a perfect grade healing elemental affinity.

Because of those astonishing Innate Talents, the Nacesai Academy had gone to recruit her. Usually, one needed to pay expensive fees and pass some tests before being able to enroll, but Ange's situation was extremely special.
In the last thousand years, Nacesai City didn't give birth to anyone with a perfect grade healing elemental affinity until Ange. Healing elemental affinity was a special type of elemental affinity, as it gave the talent to train any spell related to healing, disregarding the element it belonged to.
Healing spells were extremely difficult to master, especially the ones with the capacity to heal others, and also the healing elemental affinities were quite rare. Thus, there weren't many healers, and they were highly valued.
Because of that, Ange spent almost all of her time in the Nacesai Academy. The academy treated her very well, and she had all the resources she requested. However, she lacked the freedom to go back home; Yale had only seen her a few times since she went to the academy.
Yale and Ange communicated mainly by letters, and for Yale, reading his sister's letter was something even more important than training, as she was his only emotional support.
That time, the letter wasn't talking about her living in the academy as usual, but rather about Yale's sudden change of living habits as he started to train without stopping instead of passing his whole day reading books.
Indeed, the gossips about Yale reached his older sister. Ange was always inquiring about how her younger brother was doing, she was a very kind girl and very protective towards her younger brother.
They also had the same mother, so they were different than other brothers and sisters in the clan. Their relationship was very deep, and the death of their mother led to Ange always being very concerned about Yale, who didn't have anyone other than her.
Those circumstances also made Ange mature relatively faster than other girls of her age, and her father didn't ignore her as he did with Yale, so even before her Innate Talents shocked the city, she already had a good standing in the clan.
Of course, she tried to change her father's opinion about Yale, but that was the only topic that her father never gave her any room for discussion.
As her position in the city became higher, she thought about ways to help her little brother.
As Yale was a well-known bookworm, Ange prepared to look for some good books to give him when she reached the 5-star Mortal Rank, only then would she get access to more valuable books than the ones in the clan library.
Given her importance to the academy, if she wanted to give one or two books to her younger brother, the academy would accept it. However, as she heard about Yale's changes, she changed her mind and sent him some medicinal pills.
Those were of the lowest grade and only useful for restoring stamina. Someone that was only a mortal like Yale would recover all his stamina, but those who started practicing would have only some stamina restored.
Thus, those medicinal pills weren't that valuable, and Ange managed to get them without too much difficulty, but those medicinal pills were just what Yale needed the most at that moment.
In truth, Ange thought that Yale longed for parental love and started training his body to please their father, who valued physical strength the most, so she hurried to give some medicinal pills to Yale to help him with his training.
Yale was extremely grateful to his sister, even knowing that she probably misunderstood the reason for his training, as she always thought that Yale wanted to obtain the appreciation of his father.
No matter the reason, those medicinal pills were what he needed the most, and he wouldn't waste them. With them, Yale started training without stopping as he used those medicinal pills instead of resting.
Finally, the next morning, a notification appeared on his head.
[System alert: Strength points increased from 1 to 2.]
