Last Wish System

It had been some time since Jika and Dan managed to take half-beast form, so Yale started to teach them how to use a sword, but their progress didn’t match Yale’s expectations.

The one sparring with them wasn’t Yale himself, but Lar in human form wielding a sword that looked like her sword form.

Lar’s progress had been incredibly quick after she returned to human form, and her own swordsmanship was at a very high level, although she was still far behind Yale.

"Yale, you are too harsh with them. They are still kids."

Awat spoke after witnessing the scene.

"With their current age, I don’t consider them kids despite their looks."

Yale had been surprised about how slowly Dan and Jika were growing. Moreover, they were also slow to train, so they weren’t immortals yet.

"It seems a strange reaction between their bloodline and this world. However, you can’t blame them. Even their minds are maturing at such a slow speed."

Awat and Mojo had been looking for the reason for the slow growth, and finally determined that the bloodline was the reason.

It gave them an incredible potential, but it also made them grow incredibly slowly. Fortunately, they also had a lifespan that seemed to grow while they trained, so they didn’t have to worry about it.

Such a thing didn’t happen to other beasts. They had a longer lifespan than humans from the start, but it didn’t grow while training.

"I know, but they keep making such basic mistakes that made me wonder if they are really trying to learn."

Jika and Dan lowered their heads in shame while Lar looked happy since Yale wasn’t displeased with her.

"Dad, we just want to improve."

Jika spoke, but her voice was low.

"If you want to improve just follow what I say. Those strange invented moves are useless and even dangerous for yourselves."

Jika and Dan tried to be cool using the sword, which always ended up with Yale’s scolding.

"But dad, you were so cool battling against Uncle Awat. You used a lot of unexpected moves..."

Yale sighed after hearing that.

"Listen. They might seem unexpected for inexperienced kids like you, but Awat blocked them all. I wasn’t using the sword randomly. All my moves were carefully controlled. However, you are just fooling around without even knowing what you are doing. If you want to develop your own moves, first you need to master the basic swordsmanship."

Yale had covered the whole area with his Absolute protection, so even if they harmed themselves, nothing bad would happen in the end. However, Yale didn’t want that they had bad habits using the sword or one day it might cost their lives.

"Understood."

Dan and Jika replied, but it wasn’t the first time that they had that conversation, so Yale was quite skeptical if they really understood.

"Master, wait!"

Seeing that Yale was about to leave, Lar rushed towards him.

"Your progress is great. You are a good girl."

Yale patted Lar’s head before she jumped to his back and returned to her sword form.

"I will finish upgrading my sword soon. After that, we will leave. I hope that at least you master the basics before that."

Yale had been working on the Essence Slayer Sword for a lot of years, so the sword was finally near to reach its peak, which would mark the end of Yale’s stay in the Weapon Spirit Tribe.

Awat and Mojo were both very pleased with Yale’s progress. Although he couldn’t compare to Tofesh, he was still among the best.

The next day, Jika and Dan stopped fooling around and just followed Yale’s instructions, which made them progress more in a day than in ten years.

"See. You just needed to listen properly to me, and you can progress smoothly. Continue like this."

Yale patted their head while praising them, which didn’t happen too frequently.

Anyway, Yale left the room with Awat and Lar, leaving Jika and Dan behind.

They were going to Mojo’s house, so Jika and Dan couldn’t follow.

Mojo, as the chief, had the best environment to upgrade weapons to their peak, so Yale had been going there each day to continue the upgrading progress.

"If you have luck, you might finish today. At worse, in three days."

Yale was told that versatile weapons couldn’t be upgraded without stop or it would harm them, so he only spent a bit of time every day.

"You will leave after three days at most, huh... I am already used to have you living in my house. It will be strange not seeing your daily training of those two cubs."

Awat knew the rules, but he still felt sad knowing that Yale would leave since Yale was similar to his master, and after their battle, he was grateful to him.

"Enough. He must also follow his travel. He won’t be able to improve to reach further heights hidden in this tribe."

They knew that Yale lacked a proper method to reach ninth level immortal, but even after giving him some methods that they had collected, it hadn’t been enough for Yale to make one that suited him properly.

After all, the methods collected were mostly from the owners of those in the village, so there weren’t too many.

"Alright, alright."

Awat stopped talking about the topic while Yale continued the upgrading progress, but the daily season finished before he was done.

The training with Jika and Dan went well the next day since they already started to follow Yale’s instructions without trying to use what they called cool moves.

"It is finished."

That day, Yale finally managed to upgrade his weapon. At that moment, without taking into account that the weapon lacked a spirit, it was the best kind of weapon that could be created by someone that wasn’t at least a Minor God.

After finishing to upgrade the sword, Yale also obtained the Minor Crafting Divinity, which was something that he suspected that would happen.

"Congratulations."

The chief looked happy when Yale finished.

"Yeah, congratulations. By the way, how are you planning to name it? The previous name didn’t suit it too much. What do you think about Tawa? It matches well with my name."

When Awat spoke, Mojo felt like wanting to punch him. Naming swords was something that the owner should do.

"Isn’t it just your name in reverse?"

Yale felt that he should change the weapons name to give it a more proper one in the case it developed a spirit someday, but he didn’t understand why it should be so similar to Awat’s name.

"Of course. After she develops a spirit, she will be like my younger sister. You spoke so much about your cute younger sister that I also want one."

Awat started to laugh, which made that Mojo finally punched him.

"Shameless."

That was the only word that Mojo said.

"What if it didn’t look like a girl? Weapon spirits are genderless... Moreover, can’t you just make a weapon and made it develop spirit if you want a sister?"

From the start, the chances of a versatile weapon developing a spirit were too low, so Yale understood that Awat wanted to use every chance, but he didn’t mention it to Awat to see how he reacted.

"If I make it, it would be like my daughter instead than my sister. It won’t work. I am sure that with my luck, Tawa will look like a girl, don’t worry!"

Yale didn’t know if Awat was just too confident or he was just speaking nonsense.

"Well, let’s call her Tawa then. Not like if I have any other name in mind. Happy?"

After Yale spoke, Awat nodded.

"Very happy. Take good care of my future sister."

Mojo was quite angry with Awat, but since Yale agreed, he stopped caring about the matter. It was strange for Awat to be so friendly towards anyone to joke like that, so Mojo decided to endure it a bit more.

"Of course. Now, I will go to tell Jika and Dan that we are leaving. After we are ready and bid farewell of everyone, we will leave."

Yale was about to leave after speaking, but Mojo interrupted him.

"Wait. If you are going to leave, I know a place that might help you to develop the next step of your training method."

Since Awat had been unpolite enough to name Yale’s weapon and call it his sister, Mojo decided to aid help a bit more as compensation despite their rules forbidding it in normal situations.

"Where?"

Yale was very interested in such a place.

"It is also on a separate space-time like us, but there, only one person lives. He has a lot of experience, so he might be able to help you. He also trained here, so if we send you there, he should agree without problems. Oh, right, his name is Tenir."

Yale had never heard that name, but since it seemed that the person liked to be secluded from the outside world, it wasn’t strange.

"Then I will go there. Send the two cubs and me there directly."

After speaking, Yale left the room to inform Jika and Dan.

"Why haven’t you told him about Tenir’s curse? Aren’t both of them in similar situations?"

Awat spoke once Yale left.

"Tenir made a contract to curse himself, it was his choice. It isn’t the same case."
