“The conditions have been fulfilled; the Last Wish System is now unlocked.”

“Last Wish System is launching; please wait.”

At that moment a progress bar appeared in Yale’s mind, in two minutes it was complete.

“Last Wish System launch finished successfully; Yale Roanmad registered as the system’s user, you can start using the Last Wish System.”

Yale was excited, but before he could do anything, the system spoke again.

“Do you want to start the Last Wish System tutorial?”

Yale still didn’t know what functions exactly this system had, so he said in a loud voice.

“I want!”

But the system didn’t react; he tried again.

“I want to start the tutorial!”

The system remained unchanged; Yale stopped speaking as he noticed that it was already very dark, and no one else was in the library. He was lucky because if someone were here, he would be scolded and more important, the system’s existence could have been revealed to others.

He was sure the system was very precious, enough to awaken the greed of others, something that requires so much knowledge to unlock can’t be an ordinary thing, if the Last Wish system’s existence were made public he would have a rough time.

He swore in his mind that he wouldn’t make a mistake like that again, the Last Wish System should remain as his most valuable secret, Yale needed to ensure ways to hide it from others, or he would suffer.

“User didn’t need to worry; no one can detect the existence of the Last Wish System if you don’t reveal it.”

Yale was surprised; the system reacted to his thoughts, then he tried to say in his mind the same words he shouted before.

“Tutorial starting…”

Yale sighed in relief as it worked, he now understood that he only needs to think to use the system, before he has been too excited and didn’t think before shouting. Yale stopped pondering and paid attention to the system tutorial.

“The Last Wish System has two main functions, the Database Search, and the Quest Menu. The Database Search lets the user search any information stored in the database; the system has already scanned your body and soul, all the information is synchronized to the database, all the knowledge required to unlock the Last Wish System is also available to consult at any time.”

Yale was delighted hearing that, even if he had a very good memory, he couldn’t remember everything he read or saw in the past. He can retain the general information of most things, but he could not remember all the details, with this function he could obtain all the information he needed at any time!

But the thing that picked his attention was this scanning of body and soul; Yale pondered about what kind of information the system could get when the system stopped his thoughts.

“As the user is interested in it, the most relevant information extracted from body and soul will now be resumed in two new auxiliary functions. The Stats Menu and the Innate Talent Menu.”

As the system was speaking Yale was shocked, he was curious about that, and then the system generated two new functions, originally the system only had two functions, now the system functions have doubled.

He wasn’t sure about the Stats Menu, but the Innate Talent Menu is something that anyone would want, only by having the words Innate Talent would pick anyone’s attention. Innate Talents were something one is born with, and one can’t acquire more, although it’s possible to upgrade your existing talent, the difficulty becomes enormous as one grows up.

The tradition was to test the kids only on their tenth birthday when they lost the world’s protection and became able to begin training, testing it before could make the results inaccurate, Innate Talents are difficult to measure.

Yale suspected that this Innate Talent Menu would be able to show his Innate Talents at any moment, Innate Talents could be in the body and the soul, the Last Wish System should have the necessary data since it already scanned Yale. He read that some people become able to sense their Innate Talents, sensing oneself is always easier than sensing others, but only true geniuses or truly lucky ones could do it.

If Yale were able to know about his Innate Talents now, his possibilities of improving would be much higher than others because he only was six years old, these four years of difference are very important.

He was still lost in his thoughts when the system continued.

“The Stats Menu can show the user data in numeric value to make them simple to understand.”

Then the Stats Menu appeared in his mind.

“Name: Yale Roanmad | Age: 6 (World’s law protection) | Body Level: 0 | Mind Level: 0”

“Vitality: 3 | Strength: 1 | Agility: 1 | Intelligence: 10 | Wisdom: 10 | Dexterity: 7”

The system said that one point was the minimum value, Yale had a weird expression on his face as he murmured.

“What the… I know I don’t exercise very much, but having only one point of strength and agility…”

In truth, it was not weird for Yale to only have a single point in Strength unless he was born with some innately powerful body, that evaluation is normal at his age and lifestyle, but having the weakest strength isn’t something that Yale liked.

His vitality is rather average for his age. But having seven in dexterity is a lot. As for intelligence and wisdom, they were at the maximum value possible, at least without training his mind. At level zero no Stats can surpass ten, that’s the absolute limit, to exceed it the level should be two, in other words, one needed to become a 2-star mortal erudite.

There are two main ways to get strong in Yale’s world; the first is by practicing Inner Qi and becoming a Warrior, the other is training the mind and becoming a Magus. There are some other variations, most of them lost since ancient times or abandoned due to their inefficiency in front of the two main ways.

The system only showed information about the two main ways, the levels of both ways are independent, and they had different restrictions, the body leveling would allow the increase of vitality, strength, and agility. On the other hand, the mind leveling would allow the increase of intelligence, wisdom, and dexterity.

In the system being level zero in both is what is known simply as a mortal, normal people, at the moment one starts to practice training in Qi or magic would be automatically at level one, equivalent to a 1-star mortal fighter or a 1-star mortal erudite. That wouldn’t change the Stat limits but indicates that one had at least the talent to surpass ordinary people, a first step towards becoming an expert.

Of course, it was possible to train in both, a lot of people tried to do it, but in the end, almost all chose to focus only in one way as one needed to reach Rank 1 Novice Warrior or Novice Magus before the age of sixteen. After one turned sixteen, it would be impossible to surpass the 9-star mortal stage. Thus, in the end, focusing on one way leads to having a better chance of reaching at least rank 1 in one way.

Practicing internal Qi or magic can only be done after one became ten years old and lost the world’s protection, no one can succeed before, and one could even harm themselves trying.

Due to his age, Yale was still a mortal and based on his Stats; obviously, he was well suited to become a magus and had a very difficult path if he wanted to become a Warrior. But that wasn’t that important, Yale still had almost four years to train before he could start practicing, so improving his Stats would be very good preparation, and as intelligence and wisdom were already at his limits, he should focus on his other Stats.

Thus, what was important to Yale, more than the stats were his Latent Talents. One could still practice Inner Qi as long as one trains hard enough, even without related Latent Talents.

However, magic requires having at least a related Innate Talent; if one didn’t have at least the lowest grade of Magical Talent it didn’t matter if one is at the maximum Stats in intelligence and wisdom, there’s no way to become a Magus.

The system finally finished explaining everything about the Stats to Yale when it finally changed to the Innate Talent Menu; Yale was extremely nervous as it appeared in his mind.
