《Last Wish System 》Chapter 584: Enraged Howl
Advertisement
"Tofesh, I was just joking. There is no way that eating or not eating can influence this."
Yale noticed that Tofesh started to believe in his joke, which Yale never expected.
He believed that the Lie Divinity would only work with lies, but it seemed that it could also make jokes more believable, which was a problem.
Usually, Yale wasn't someone who would tell so many jokes, he mainly told them when he was only with Tofesh, but he still felt bad if Tofesh would take seriously any joke.
He wished that the Lie Divinity had the capability of turning it off or something like that, but it wasn't so convenient.
From the start, he never wanted that kind of Divinity and even less when it worked automatically, but he needed to admit that it had been useful to fake being more powerful than he really was.
"Is that so? I think it is possible to be related. Well, I am not proficient in this matter, so better if I don't worry about it."
Tofesh was just curious about the Minor Time Divinity, but he never planned to try to get it himself.
Yale sighed in relief when Tofesh forgot about the topic. He didn't want to see anyone preaching that eating was the key to get the Minor Time Divinity.
As for the real method, Yale wouldn't speak about it to anyone due to involving the change of the past.
The main problem with it was that everyone's memories were overwritten with the new timeline, so except Great God Kroh and Yale, no one remembered it.
Someone with the power to change the memories of everyone was too scary even in the case that someone believed it instead of thinking that it was a lie.
Too many bad things could be done with such power, so everyone would fear someone with that power.
Some paranoids would even start to blame all the bad things to the one who could change the past freely, and it wouldn't be long since those thoughts spread and the one controlling the time became the most hated person of the multiverse.
It was too scary for others not being able to remember anything before the changes, so not even Great God Kroh told that it was possible.
People thought that only the immediate past could be altered and that the changes couldn't be too significative, at most like Yale did his first time in the Timeless Border.

However, changing millions of years of story of a universe or making that a Great God of the Council of Gods ceased to exist by killing him in the past were things that no one believed possible.
Great God Kroh and Yale had the same idea about concealing that part of the Time Divinity, but that same part also made them feel disconnected from others.
Since no one else remembered the changes, the feeling of loneliness after the change was a huge issue even after being able to obtain the memories of the new timeline.
That sensation was something that only those who experienced it could describe properly.
"Master, do you want something to drink. I made it myself."
While Yale was lost in his thoughts, Tawa appeared with a drink on her hands.
She had just followed the other maids to see the battle, but she was impressed by her master's prowess.
"Those will take a while to return. More due to their pride than anything else, but a while is still a while. Drinking while waiting isn't bad. Thank you."
Yale picked the drink and drank it.
It was extremely sweet, probably made by mixing some sweet fruits of that universe that he had tasted before.
"Not bad."
Yale wasn't too picky, so he didn't dislike it, but he couldn't be considered to be someone who loved extremely sweet things either.
However, Tawa was a bit dejected by those words because he expected Yale to love the drink.
"Why that face? This is a very simple drink, so getting a not bad from me is already a big praise. Anyway, being this sweet, I bet that Wyba and the other girls on the family would love it more than me."
Wyba definitely loved sweet things, and Aiwai was the same.
In fact, although Lina tried to not show it on the outside because she felt that it would be too out of character, she also liked them a lot.
One day, Yale wondered why Lina left the room at night and used his stealth capabilities to follow her, so he discovered a secret meeting to eat and rate sweets, which was presided by Lina herself although she was hiding her face like everyone else in the secret meeting. Ange was still young and that time, but she was also present there.
Of course, although they were using their best skills to hide their identities, there was no way Yale didn't recognize them.

He was curious and remained hidden hearing the whole secret meeting, discovering a new face of his wife.
Given what he heard that day, he could say that the drink made by Tawa would be a huge success.
"Really?"
Tawa seemed a normal kid when she asked that, but she tried to restore her calm afterward.
"Really. Get a huge amount of the ingredients to bring back home."
Yale had the feeling that Tawa tried to make a drink for herself, and after she loved it, she decided to make another for Yale.
Just as Yale thought, that was what happened. Although Tawa was trying to act like a maid, in the end, she was just a kid playing to be a maid with that behavior.
However, Yale wanted her to be a normal girl rather than a maid, so he wouldn't be worried even if he knew that his thoughts were true.
"Don't worry, I already stored a few tons on my private dimension."
Tawa was originally a sword with the Laws of Time, Space, Life, and Death, so it wasn't surprising that she could open a private dimension after being upgraded several times and awakening a spirit.
As for having stored several tons before Yale asked her, it just showed how much she had liked the drink made from them, so Yale wasn't angry.
"Very well. Make a one for Lar later. I don't know if she loves sweet drinks, but I doubt that she dislikes it."
Tawa nodded and rushed to prepare another drink for Lar.
An hour later, the Emperor and his father returned. Just as Yale guessed, they were delayed for their shame rather than the distance.
However, they knew that Yale's time in that universe was limited, so they decided to return quicker than they wanted.
They knew that they were going to lose, but the way their lost was too humiliating. One punch for one, one finger for the other.
Moreover, both were utter defeats without any chance to dress it up to make it more beautiful.
They didn't expect that even when restraining power to not ascend, a Great God would still be that powerful with just raw strength.
After they returned, before they had the chance to speak, Yale started lecturing them about their errors.
The Emperor's errors were still in the tolerable range, so he took the lecture as a chance to improve.
However, the errors of the previous Emperor were so shameful that he wanted to dig a hole and hide inside. All his dignity as Emperor had been erased after the punch and the lecture.
In fact, he needed to lose that dignity because it was his present need to look mighty to others, which hold his progress back.
Once he discarded things like the pride of the previous Emperor and the dignity of the imperial family, he shouldn't need to much time to become a Minor God, or at least to be able to try to breakthrough.
"Let's go back inside. We have nothing else to do here."
Yale said that and started to walk, but then he stopped suddenly.
His eyes weren't seeing what was in front of him; instead, he was seeing a different place in a different time.
With the Minor Time Divinity, he knew that he was seeing the future, and one that wasn't immediate but was still far, which was quite strange to happen.
The scenery in the vision was quite gory. Everyone was dead, and the corpses weren't in a state that made it possible to recognize them.
In the vision, Yale noticed that he was being followed by Tofesh and an army led by the Emperor, but they all looked as shocked as Yale in the vision.
The vision continued, and Yale reached some ruins he vaguely recognized as the place he lived after marrying Lina.
Although Yale knew that it was just a vision, so it didn't mean that it would really happen, his guess about what would happen in the next instants in the vision made his blood boil.
The ruins were also filled with corpses difficult to recognize, but some had the head intact enough to let Yale recognize them as servants he had met before.
He continued into the main hall, where the scene was even worse than outside. Although it was just a vision, Yale would have preferred to not see the next scene.
After all, as if it was a prank, among the corpses were just three that he could recognize, Ange, Aiwai, and Lina.
Yale howled in rage when the vision finished after that sight.

Essentia Animus
Second Book of the Soul - Celesi Veil Trilogy When the living essence of three girls are put at risk, giving room for a second essence within themselves, even their hyper developed fantasy world might not be enough to contain their new found ambitions. Another story of another world, these three girls must adapt to their new essence, all while each is left to question if they are truly still even alive. While this story is a sequel of the previous story in the trillogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, taking place in a distant corner of a Celese returning readers will be otherwise incapable of recognizing. However, the events of the story are a spoiler for the previous book, in case that matters to anyone. This story takes place over two centuries after the events of Vitae Memorandum, when Celese had developed into an advanced world, improved to a point that it is much like modern-day Earth while still using the gift instead of technology. The Aethyx languages are still present in this book, and even English still exists in the world after the events of the previous book, but are much less of a focus after the same closing events of the previous book. What is instead important is how the ending events of the previous book had resulted in the start of the Instrumentation Era, and exactly how the gift translates in a modern-day sense. While this book is still effectively a fantasy world of its own kind of magic, it isn’t the classical medieval scene that would be typical for such a story. The laws of science still do not exist in Celese, but that didn’t stop it from developing into something that looks similar enough. Earth itself still remains present on the other side of the veil, and its previous exposure continues to shape and advance Celese into the world it has become. This story contains scenes exibiting mania and similar dark themes, as it goes to great length to explore concepts of life and death. While the degree of such themes should not be considered to be as serious compared to matters such as actual horror, the psychological depth is still siginifcant enough to be potentially concerning for people sensitive to matters of this nature, such as any individuals with concerns questioning matters of suicide, mental harm, or a variety of emotional injuries. While none of these subjects actually occur in the story, readers who are currently troubled by such matters may find themselves considering old wounds if they are especially capable of empathy while reading, which could lead to furthered emotional or mental stress. Readers with a high capacity for empathy may find themselves troubled by concerns regarding any potential lack of mental/emotional control as well as considerations regarding the meaning of death. Readers who appreciate subtle dark themes in a story may instead find this to be an interesting twist of the same idea.
