Last Wish System Chapter 36
Advertisement
Yale spent some time with Wyba and Ange before starting his night practice.
Wyba missed him a lot and didn't want to separate from him once they reunited. If Ange didn't hug her tight, Wyba would have rushed towards Yale the moment she saw him.
Ange also had a lot of things to speak with Yale, especially after she received a visit from her master, Yale's healing class teacher.
Thus, she knew about Yale's enlightenment about Time Healing.
Ange never told anything about Time Healing to Yale, as that secret could have more dangers than benefits.
However, after she discovered that Yale could also practice it, she wanted to explain her own experiences to Yale since that would be a lot of help to him.
Yale managed to get new insights thanks to his sister's experiences, he still never used the spell consciously, but thanks to Ange, at the moment he decided to use it for the first time it would be easier than with only his own enlightenment.
After that, Ange teased him because of the rumors about how Yale saved Aizu in the Fire Elemental Class.
Yale couldn't do anything when his sister started to talk about that topic because he needed to tell her that Aizu would come the next morning to train with him, and Ange would need to give her permission or Aizu wouldn't be able to enter.
As expected, when he told that matter to her, Ange's teasing increased. She was delighted that her little brother managed to get one girl to come to the house after only one day.
It wasn't strange for the kids in Nacesai City to be engaged from a young age or at least being close to a potential partner.
Ange feared that with Yale's lack of experience in social relationships, he would be unable to get a girl, and then he would be single for the whole life as his master.
Of course, she didn't know about Swordmad's past nor his tragic love, no one in the younger generation knew about those things.
Ange herself had zero romantic experience and didn't have any interest in having it, but she didn't want her brother to end up single.
In the end, Yale escaped saying that he needed to train and then went to his room and started his night practice.
Neither of them knew where Swordmad went after the lesson.
The answer was to Sainac's office, which was situated at the highest tower of the academy's central building.

When the lesson finished, Swordmad had received a telepathy message from Sainac telling him to go immediately to his office.
Sainac couldn't give orders to Swordmad, but Swordmad sensed the urgency in the message. If Sainac was contacting him that way, there should be an important reason.
When Swordmad arrived at Sainac's office, he saw that there was someone else in the room.
It had the shape of a person, but it was covered in a black cloak, making it impossible to recognize its gender.
Furthermore, that wasn't a real person and not even a clone, that was only an incarnation, which had taken the shape of the one who cast it.
However, the pressure it emanated was enough to scare Swordmad; that incarnation alone would be able to kill him even if he joined hands with Sainac.
Fortunately, that person didn't come to murder them.
Swordmad was sure of that because that wasn't the first time he met with the black-cloaked expert's incarnation.
"I pay my respects to senior; it's my pleasure to meet your excellence again."
Swordmad being that respectful to someone would have shocked anyone who had met him before.
The Mysterious Expert nodded and replied with a distorted voice, which didn't seem to be its real voice.
"It has been more than ten years; it seems that you didn't break the promise you made me at that time."
"I wouldn't dare."
Swordmad was really scared when he met the Mysterious Expert the first time; such a powerful expert didn't exist in Nacesai City nor in the surrounding cities.
It was the most powerful expert that Swordmad had met in his life, and that was only an incarnation. He didn't dare to imagine the true power of its main body.
That time, the Mysterious Expert had said to him that he visited only four people in its previous visit to the Roanmad clan, being Swordmad one of them.
Swordmad didn't know who were the other three, nor what did happen when the Mysterious Expert visited them, but he didn't dare to ask.
Swordmad only knew what he promised to the Mysterious Expert, although at that time, he didn't think that the situation the Mysterious Expert said would really happen, and he would need to fulfill the promise.
However, it happened.
The exact situation depicted by the Mysterious Expert happened to Swordmad some years ago.
Swordmad had promised to accept a disciple who would have some unusual circumstances around him.

The Mysterious Expert said that his future disciple would be a kid who used to be a bookworm who never trained. However, he would suddenly become crazy at training and would ask Swordmad to be his master even though he never wielded a sword before.
Swordmad didn't believe that such a kid could appear, but he promised to take him as a disciple if someone like that appeared.
The kid who fulfilled all the conditions was Yale.
At the start, Swordmad became shocked when he heard about a kid who was almost like the one the Mysterious Expert depicted had appeared in the clan.
However, since Yale didn't go to ask Swordmad to become his master and instead went to practice archery, Swordmad thought that it was only a strange coincidence.
He only thought that until the moment Yale appeared in front of him, asking to become his apprentice.
All the questions Swordmad asked Yale were only a cover, he would have accepted him disregarding what Yale said.
Of course, even though he accepted him as disciple due to the promise to the Mysterious Expert, Swordmad ended up developing affection to his disciple afterward. Yale was the type of kid that was suited to be Swordmad's disciple.
Swordmad couldn't avoid thinking that the Mysterious Expert had an exceptional power of foresight. Yale wasn't even born at that time, and the Mysterious Expert already knew how he would be as if he could see the future.
He believed that the Mysterious Expert had an understanding of the Time Law and should have seen something about Yale that made him go to visit Swordmad.
When Swordmad sensed time ripples on Yale, he was only surprised at first.
However, on their way to the academy, Swordmad thought about the powerful expert he had met in the past and couldn't avoid thinking that maybe there was some relationship.
Ange also had some connection to time due to Time Healing, so there should be a reason for both siblings having such a strange relationship to the time element.
Finally, on his first day in the academy, Yale also showed talent in Time Healing, and then the Mysterious Expert appeared again. All of that couldn't be a coincidence.
Sainac also knew the Mysterious Expert from before because the Mysterious Expert was the one who told him about Ange's talents even before the Roanmad clan could test them.
Sainac was the one who personally tested Ange's talents, and very few people knew them in detail.
"You both should understand why I appeared today. I don't have any ill intention towards you two, the academy, or the city."
After a brief stop, the expert continued.
"However, if one of them dies or suffers an irreparable loss, I will personally exterminate the whole city and anyone who had any relation to the matter. I don't need to say anything about the people I am meaning, right?"
Sainac and Swordmad nodded, they were able to understand without difficulties the Mysterious Expert's intentions.
Furthermore, the Mysterious Expert's incarnation had enough strength to eradicate the city even if the whole city tried to resist.
"Then, I should leave. Remember, don't disappoint me."
After saying that, the expert disappeared from Sainac's office.
Swordmad and Sainac were relieved after the Mysterious Expert left the room, they felt too much pressure from him.
Neither of them knew that the other had met the expert before, but after that night, they didn't have any doubt about it.
Then, they looked at each other and then started to exchange information about what they knew from that expert based on their previous interactions and deductions.
The peak of the tower where Sainac's office was located was considered a restricted area for almost anyone.
However, at that moment, the Mysterious Expert was sat above the tower looking towards the house where Yale and Ange were.
"We shouldn't interact directly right now. That would only harm you at this moment."
After stopping for a moment, and even though no one heard those words, the expert continued.
"Yale Roanmad… Fate binds us together, but before meeting me, you first need to turn stronger and learn about the mystery of your past life."
Yale would be shocked if he heard the Mysterious Expert because he never told anything about his past life to anyone.
"No matter what life, you are still careless. The world's reaction for creating an ordinary skill and an Origin Skill have slight differences. You are lucky that I can suppress it, or you would have become the target of really fearsome people."
The Mysterious Expert knew about the Origin Path and even helped Yale to hide it from the external world.
"Don't die before you are qualified to meet with me. I still need to repay you for what I did in the past."
After taking a last look towards Yale, the Mysterious Expert vanished.

Debut: the day every young gentleperson of age gathers to receive their Spirit Blessing and shift for the first time into their second form. Except for those who don't. Beatrice's worst fear is to be one of the unlucky few trapped perpetually in a human body, cut off from the magic of the spirits and unfit for any respectable pack or pride. But when the time comes to face her fear, the outcome is one she never could have imagined. Be warned, this story is some highly experimental fluff—an unapologetically girly, unrelentingly bisexual, Regency/Victorian-ish fantasy mish-mash. It does have a dark side, though, so don’t come in expecting all sunshine and roses. Worthy of note, given the reputation of shifter stories: there will be no explicit sex in this tale. There will, however, be lots of polyamorous romance, necromancy, portal magic, capricious spirits, elemental mages, an unconventional take on shifters and a highly ordered society built around their existence.
