Last Wish System

"I am."

Yale just said two words in reply as he didn't know how to react against the sparkling eyes of the kid who asked him. He didn't know how to reach in such situations with unknown people looking with awe at him, so he was bad dealing with such situations.

"Don't be disrespectful with him. You can't start asking important people without permission. Say sorry."

Birgh quickly reprimanded the kid who spoke with Yale, but it wasn't like if Yale was angry by the words of the kid. The kid was only admiring him, and there wasn't anything bad on it, the problem was just Yale's lack of enough social capabilities to deal with the situation.

"Don't be too hard on him; he was just too excited to control himself. I don't need him to apologize."

Birgh didn't seem happy when Yale rested importance to the matter, but the kid looked towards Yale with even more admiration after seeing how open-minded Yale was. After all, even the kid noticed that he shouldn't have spoken without permission and just as Yale said, he lost the control of himself.

"Yale, don't blame her, she seems to have developed some maternal love for the kids in charge of her and sometimes I don't know if she is their teacher or their mother. I won't be surprised if she adopts some of them."

Birgh turned red when Durgan spoke because she knew that she had been acting like that for a long time despite never having shown such interest on kids before. She had only offered to help them as a method to honor Hyrk's sacrifice, not because she was someone who liked kids, but in the end, she ended attached to them to the point that she didn't want to part with them.

However, she was angry with Durgan for saying that in public.

"Well, it isn't like if I don't have any attachment to them. Some of them are really good with the sword, and I want them to follow me to the Larken Clan as my disciples, ha, ha, ha."

Seeing that Birgh was angry, Durgan tried to rest importance to his previous words; since the day he discovered that Birgh was like a demon when she was angry, he didn't dare to angry her no matter what, but he seemed to have a predisposition to angry her unconsciously. Of course, Durgan really planned to bring some talented kids in the sword to the Larken Clan if they didn't have any other place to return, but he didn't feel an attachment for all of them like Birgh.

"I am sure that the kids that don't have any place to return will be happy with any of you, they all seem pretty attached to both of you, I am sure that both of you have been really good teachers to them. Well, I still have some matters to attend, contact me if something important happens."

Without losing any more time, Yale disappeared and reappeared beside Revgen. Yale didn't know about the situations of the families of those kids, nor anything about their current situation, so giving any advice would have been bad; given Yale's prestige, it wouldn't have been strange if they followed his advice blindly even if it wasn't the best choice. Thus, he only spoke some generic words that the other two already knew. After all, there was no way Durgan and Birgh failed to recognize how attached were those kids to them.

"Are you worried for those kids?"

Revgen asked Yale at the same moment the later appeared.

"I am worried, but to be more exact, after seeing those kids I am worried about the current situation of the Empire after the destruction of the True Empire."

Since Hyrk died for those kids, Yale was truly a bit worried about their fates, but he didn't plan to admit it in front of Revgen, so he only said that he was worried by the Revgen Empire. Moreover, it was also true that Yale worried about the state of the Revgen Empire because there were a lot of cities and towns destroyed by the True Empire before the war with Nacesai City being one of them, only the Nacesai Academy survived and because Yale acted to save them.

"Most cities and towns had been in reconstruction the last year, and those with survivors are already looking to recover their kids. Although the parents of most of them are dead, most of them also had some family left."

Although that wasn't Yale's question, Revgen didn't fail to notice that Yale also wanted to hear that last part about the kids.

"That is good. I don't care about the fates of the people in the Revgen Empire, but at least I care for the after effects of the True Empire. The fact that the people are reconstructing everything after the war is good."

Although Yale's words were rude, they were the truth. Revgen was an Emperor and worried about his subjects, but Yale didn't worry about them unless they were related to him. However, since the True Empire came derived from the continental war, Yale didn't want the people of the Revgen Empire to suffer more due to them.

"You are as cold as always. By the way, I was wondering if you would let me see my granddaughter. Don't misunderstand me, if you like her, I have no problems in both of you being together, but you had her for such a long time in that dimension of yours…"

Yale didn't expect that they were still inside the Storage Space, but Liye had never taken them out, so it was logical that they were still inside. Since Yale didn't remember everything of the time the Origin Link was active, he thought that they had been freed in one of those moments.

"That is my wrong. Don't resist."

At that moment Yale entered to the Storage Space followed by Revgen.

Both of them appeared on the area Nurvey's group had been living the last year after Liye left the Special Realm.

"Look, Yale returned, and there is someone with him."

Everyone rushed towards the place where Yale and Revgen where, and the first in recognizing Revgen was Nurvey.

"Grandfather…"

Nurvey felt wrong for having disappeared one year without notifying her grandfather about it, but she had no way to exit nor communicate with the outside.

"Little lass, I know that you wanted to go to live to the world of your beloved, but you should at least tell me about it before."

Revgen truly felt that Lar and his old friend were really compatible, so he didn't cease his intents of putting both of them together.

"It isn't like that…"

Nurvey hadn't seen Yale the whole time, so it was illogical saying that she was there due to Yale. However, she couldn't truly deny that there was something she loves in the Storage Space.

"Respects to Emperor Revgen"

The others bowed to Revgen once he saw them.

"Where is Ange?"

Yale noticed that in front of him there were only Nurvey, Kermu, and Serka.

"She is now with our neighbors. You should have told us, specially Nurvey, that Wyba is also here."

In the year they spend there, they discovered Aiwai's house and met her and Wyba because Aiwai decided to let them enter. Of course, that was an extremely happy moment to Nurvey who hugged Wyba in her beast form or her half-beast form equally.

Aiwai introduced herself as Yale's big sister despite being a half-beast, but when they saw her taking human form plus the fact that she was at the Sage Rank, made that no one dared to object. As for Aiwai's beast form, she decided to avoid showing it to outsiders due to her master pointing out the dangers of it; the fewer people knew about that, the better.

"I see that all of you improved quite a bit in this time."

Revgen didn't fail to notice the level of those three, and he was greatly surprised. Nurvey and Kermu were still at the same level as when Liye left, but they reached it in both paths at that moment, and their power was already stabilized; both of them benefitted enormously of Liye's guidance.

Serka had reached the 2-star Practitioner Rank in the Magus Path, which was a great progress thanks to Ange's teachings, but although her Warrior Path also improved, it still lacked as was only at the 4-star Apprentice, and that was only because Kermu taught her.

"It is only because we received some guidance."

Kermu knew that the one who taught them was Yale's past life so unconsciously looked toward him while speaking.

"Oh, so you also taught my granddaughter. I know that you like talents like her."

Yale didn't bother to reply Revgen's words that had a double meaning.

"Let's go to see the others."

Everyone nodded to Yale's words as it was obvious that after such a long time, Yale also wanted to see his sisters.

Yale didn't dare to teleport so many people for fear of the Storage Space destabilizing, so they went walking, both places weren't exactly near, but they weren't that far either for Yale's group.

While walking, Yale checked his newly acquired menu, wondering if he could obtain anything else from it, but the moment he opened it he saw something that made him have a revelation.

"So, it was like this. I am a fool for not noticing it earlier."
