《Last Wish System 》Chapter 36: The Mysterious Expert
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 as 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 when he used 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.
When he told her, Ange’s teasing increased. She was delighted that his little brother managed to get one girl to come to the house after only one day.
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 like 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.
In the end, Yale escaped saying that he needed to train and then went to his room and started his night practice.
Both of them didn’t know 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 impossible recognize its gender.
Furthermore, that wasn’t a real person and not even a clone, that was only an incantation will, which had taken the shape of the one who cast it.
However, the pressure it emanated was enough to scare Swordmad; even that will 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 his first time meeting with the black cloaked expert’s will.
“I pay my respects to senior; it’s my pleasure 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 wasn’t its real voice.
“It had 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 incantation, 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 that he had made a promise to that expert, although at that time he didn’t think that the situation the 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 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 if he never wielded a sword before.

Swordmad didn’t believe that such kid could appear, but he promised to take him as disciple if someone like that appears.
The kid who fulfilled all the conditions was Yale.
At the start, Sowrdmad became shocked when he heard that a kid who was almost as the mysterious expert depicted appeared in the clan.
However, as Yale didn’t go to ask Swordmad to become his master and instead went to practice archery, Swordmad thought it was only a strange coincidence.
He only thought that until Yale appeared in front of him asking to become Swordmad’s apprentice.
All the questions Swordmad asked Yale were only a cover, he would accept him disregarding what Yale answered.
Of course, even if he accepted him as disciple due to the promise to the mysterious expert, Swordmad developed 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 has an exceptional power of foresight. Yale wasn’t even born at that time, and the expert already knew how he would be as if he could see the future.
Swordmad believed that the mysterious expert had an understanding of the Time Law and had should have seen something about Yale that made him went to visit Swordmad.
When Swordmad sensed time ripples about Yale, he was only surprised at first.
However, on their way to the academy, Swordmad reminded the powerful expert and couldn’t avoid thinking that there should be some relation.
Ange also had some connection to time due to Time Healing, so there should be a reason for both siblings having such strange relation to the time element.
Finally, in his first day in the academy, Yale also showed talent in Time Healing, and then the mysterious expert appeared again, that couldn’t be a coincidence.
Sainac also knew the mysterious expert from before, that 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 know them in totality.
“You both should understand why I appeared today. I haven’t any ill will towards you, the academy or the city.”
After a brief stop, the expert continued.
“However, if one of them dies or suffer an irreparable loss, I will personally exterminate the whole city and anyone who had any relation to it. I needn’t say anything about to who I mean, right?”
Sainac and Swordmad nodded, they were able to understand without difficulties the mysterious expert’s intentions.
Furthermore, that expert’s will 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 expert left the room, they felt too much pressure from him.
Both of them didn’t know 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 seated above the tower looking towards the house where Yale and Ange were.
“We shouldn’t interact directly, that would only harm you at this moment.”
After stopping for a moment and even if no one was hearing him, the expert continued.
“Yale Roanmad, the day you understand the mystery of your past life should be the day we meet again.”
Yale would be shocked if he heard the mysterious expert because he never told anything about his past life to anyone.
“No matter in what life, you are still careless as always. 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.”
That 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.

When Hod is invaded by the Empire, Andros Aeton is pressed into their service and his people are held hostage. Unbeknownst to him, factions within the Empire vie to use him to their own ends. He must claim his heritage if he has any hope of escaping the clutches of the forces that seek to use him." This is a work in progress.

Helena's Plane
Paul, a bored young man, wakes up in a white room. A young woman tells him he has died, that she is some kind of god who likes videogames and he will be reborn in an RPG-esque world so she and her fellow god-friends can watch him for entertainment.Unfortunately, the goddess forgot to give Paul most of the obligatory, obvious cheat-abilities to make him rush to power in easy mode. Paul embraces his new life full of clichés, perverts, magic, loot and action. And animal girls.18+ !CONTAINS GRAPHIC VIOLENCE AND SEXUAL CONTENT! (Actual sex is still hard to find, but you will get it. Eventually. Sporadically.) =================Author's note:So, this is my very first novel. It will be poorly written, has a huge info-dump disguised as a first chapter (to be rewritten. At some point in the future. I guess.), and may or may not offend everyone for different reasons. Perhaps you will just find it boring, which would be even worse. The description turned out a bit comedic, but the story isn't overly so.I have a rough idea of where this will be going, but expect some bumps on the road, as well as logic holes, flat characters and a lot of borderline copyright infringements from all the ideas I got reading other works. And did I mention I'm not a native speaker? No? Well, expect some embarrassing grammar and wording choices.The main character is a more or less normal guy, without high morals, martial arts skills or even a desirable goal in life. There is mature content, in terms of violence and sexual content. It won't become a full-blown erotic novel, and it may or may not be your cup of tea when it comes to the type of content.Critics welcome.

Tom Is Chill
An eye for an eye may make the whole world go blind but at least that f***er can't see either. The early bird gets the worm but I go to the grocery store so screw you. Technically humans don't need to breathe. If no one had any more children everyone would be dead in the next one hundred fifty years probably. Does this count as a synopsis? No? Okay. Tom murders a bunch of dudes. *Tom Dies*. Tom is reborn. Tom doesn't want to be reborn but no one really cares. Tom is born in a new world. He didn't really have to be though. Cause his old world had magic and all. I don't want to give anything away. I swear this fiction is more serious than I am I just find it hard to write a synopsis. Maybe I should write something like this. "Follow Earnheart Super Maximus on his gender-bender super adventures that are exciting and often humorous as he gathers a bunch of chicks for literally no reason." I mean that's what everyone else does and it seems to work.
