Last Wish System Chapter 12

Advertisement

[Absolute Protection: Creates a 5-meter field that lasts for 5 seconds. Nothing can interfere with the inside of the field until it disappears. This Legacy Skill can only be used once per month. It doesn't use the user's energy.]

"This skill is a real Absolute Protection."

Absolute Protection could protect Yale and everything around him from any damage. Even though it only lasted for five seconds and could only be used once per month, if Yale were again in the same situation as in the Clan's Gathering, at least, he would be able to protect himself and his sister for five seconds.

If he had lasted five seconds in the Clan Gathering, Swordmad would have been able to save him and Ange, so Yale wouldn't have needed to receive the hit in the place of his sister.

"Can I improve this Legacy Skill?"

That was something very important. If the area and duration could increase, then it would be awesome.

[The Legacy Skill is a special type of skill that directly use the Laws of the world to work; it can only improve if the user gains an understanding of the Law that the Legacy Skill is using.]

Yale was slightly disappointed, gaining some understanding of the Laws of the world was something that usually only powerful experts could do. However, having that Legacy Skill implied that his past life understood at least some of that Law, so Yale should also be capable of doing it someday.

"What law does it use?"

Laws were very closely related to elements, having a better elemental affinity also made it easier to understand the Law later on.

[Absolute Protection relies on the Time Law.]

Yale was shocked. Space and Time were special elements like healing, but they were much more difficult to train and even rarer to have as elemental affinities.

The fact that the Legacy Skill used the Time Law implied that Yale would have a very difficult time improving it, but at the same time, the system didn't lie in that it was an Absolute Protection.

A defense that manipulated time was unbreakable unless one had an even better understanding of the Time Law. A Time-related defense didn't block the incoming attacks; instead, the attacks couldn't exist in the time flux inside the Absolute Protection.

The Absolute Protection became Yale's greatest trump card, a true life-saving skill, and one that could also save others.

"Is there any way to get more Legacy Skills?"

Yale wanted to see if he could obtain more life-saving skills.

[Legacy Skills can only become unlocked by fulfilling hidden requirements. Until fulfilling them, the user won't get any more information.]

Yale expected something like that, yet he still tried to ask.

However, he didn't understand why the system put up those many difficulties when helping him instead of giving him the full legacy from his past life. He had only survived by luck last time, but with the Absolute Protection, he could have avoided those heavy injuries.

Yale didn't understand his own past life, but he couldn't do anything about that, so he chose to rest as he couldn't train at that moment.

In the following days, the healers and Swordmad fully checked Yale's body, until the day that they permitted Yale continued with his training.

Yale started to train without rest like before, and he realized that with his vitality maxed and the Auto-regeneration skill, his stamina was far greater than before.

He didn't have to rely on medicinal pills like before because his body's recovery was even better than them.

The effects of Auto-regeneration were more powerful when it came to restoring Yale's stamina compared to its ability to actually heal his wounds, as restoring stamina was far easier than recovering an injured body.

Two months later, Yale increased his Agility to eight, and after another month, his Strength reached nine points.

However, Yale was unable to increase his Dexterity to nine points until the week before his ninth birthday.

Yale also upgraded his Magical Talent to mid-high grade and got the next Skill Quest in which he needed to upgrade each of the mind-related stats to ten points.

In those months, Swordmad was very pleased with Yale because he trained even harder than before.

After having a near-death experience at such a young age, it wouldn't be strange to negatively affect the mind of a child and turn him into a coward.

However, Yale was the opposite as he became even more hard-working than before. Swordmad considered that this kind of mindset was the best one to practice any Path.

On the other hand, Yale felt that his training was becoming less effective and didn't feel confident to reach the ten points in all of his stats in little more than one year.

"The system only gave me a ten percent chance of success, and now I see that it wasn't exaggerating. The last points are truly difficult to obtain."

Ten points were the natural limit for a mortal like him, and his body was near that state. Reaching the limit would be a perfect state for a mortal, and reaching perfection was always difficult.

Yale knew that he wouldn't be able to succeed by normal means. Normal training wouldn't let his body reach perfection. Yale needed practical experience.

Moreover, he knew how to undergo some practical and dangerous training.

However, one should be at least nine years old and younger than ten years old. Yale only missed a week to his ninth birthday, so he can wait a bit. The problem was the other condition.

A recommendation from someone of the older generation of the clan and that member of the older generation would need a very good status in the clan.

Usually, a kid who wanted to undergo such training would ask his father, and if his father couldn't make the recommendation, he would at least ask some others to help the kid.

Yale's father could emit that kind of recommendation, but he was someone that didn't even visit Yale once when he was badly wounded before.

Yale didn't even think about asking him. His first option was to ask his master. He only feared that Swordmad wouldn't want to recommend him because, after all, that practical training was far too dangerous.

That practical training was called Beast Trial.

In a secret and isolated area of the clan, the clan's older generation had put a lot of Mortal Rank beasts to serve as a trial for the younger generation.

Those who survived the Beast Trial became strong, but almost all who tried became corpses.

Yale asked his master the next day, hoping to convince him.

"Master, I want to undergo the Beast Trial."

Swordmad didn't expect such a request from his disciple.

"Why? You are already very strong for your age, and you don't have any need to undergo such a dangerous trial."

Yale expected such an answer, any other kid with his stats would be already very happy and wouldn't take risks to simply improve a bit more before starting the practice of a Path.

However, Yale's situation was different as he needed to reach ten points in each stat to practice the Origin Path.

"I want to become stronger, and I feel that normal training doesn't work as well as before. I need practical experience, and the Beast Trial is a very good practical experience."

Swordmad sighed, remembering the stubbornness of his disciple.

"With your current Strength and swordsmanship as long as you are careful, you shouldn't die in the Beast Trial. All right, I will recommend you, but you must be careful."

Yale's Sword Mastery had already reached the Apprentice Level 7, and with his Auto-regeneration and Absolute Protection, he could avoid being badly wounded or instantly killed, so he didn't fear the Beast Trial.

"Thank you, master. I will start the Beast Trial on my ninth birthday."

On the following days, Yale prepared himself for the Beast Trial. He obtained a real sword from his master and also managed to obtain a bow with some real arrows. His sister sent him some healing medicinal pills. The grade of those was much higher than the grade first ones she sent to him.

As for food, the Beast Trial challenger would need to obtain it right there. That was part of the trial itself.

Finally, his ninth birthday came, and Yale followed his master to the restricted area where the Beast Trial would take place.

Yale and Swordmad were the only ones in the area, the Beast Trial wasn't very popular, and only Swordmad went to send Yale off.

That day, Yale said farewell to his master and entered the Beast Trial.
