Last Wish System

Gerken was shocked, but he still gave his scythe to Yale without hesitation.

He knew that if the wolf God wanted to rob him, it would be an easy matter, so there was no need to resort in trickery.

Moreover, Gerken felt that Yale wasn't the kind of person who liked to con others.

Yale liked the decisiveness of Gerken. As for the scythe, he teleported it to his main body. After all, with just a normal incarnation it wouldn't be wise trying to upgrade a weapon made by Tofesh.

"My main body should be able to improve it in a while. Until then, take this. Consider it a gift."

After speaking, Yale sent the simplified version of his Path towards Gerken.

"Thank you very much for this kindness!"

After noticing about the Path that Yale had sent him, Gerken immediately bowed towards Yale.

He knew that the simplified version of the Wolf God's Path was several times more valuable than an Origin Path.

After all, although none of the people with that Path reached the level of Origin Gods, they were still comparable to them in battle prowess.

That Path was the only one besides the Origin Path that was possible to practice by other people than the one who created it, so a lot of people wanted to be in good terms with the Wolf God to obtain one.

Of course, Yale wasn't someone who could be bought with flattery, and very few people had even the chance to speak with him.

Moreover, the Path was only possible to train by Essence Gods with at least a Fake Origin Path. Those at higher levels would be unable to change their Path to Yale's Path.

Thus, most factions wanted to obtain that Path to gift it to their Essence God descendants, but there was no way that Yale would gift his Path to others without knowing them.

Gerken was Ange's master, so Yale felt that was proper give the simplified Path to him.

"You are welcome. Regardless of your decision, the more strength you obtain, the better."

Gerken understood those words. Power had always been the most important factor to be successful in life.

"If this isn't too presumptuous from my part. Can you tell me your reasons to participate in this war? Is just for the sake of the universe, or because you have to fulfill some personal revenge?"

Gerken knew that there were both kinds of people, and he didn't consider that one was better than the other.

It was natural wanting revenge if you have suffered at their hands, and the universe was where everyone lives, so those with strength wouldn't doubt it give their all to protect it.

"Both. I want to protect this universe, but I have a personal matter with them. They cursed me before I was born. I suffered a lot because of that curse until I got rid of it, and their allies had also been provoking problems to me for a lot of time. I can't forgive them, and I can't allow more unborn kids to be cursed before even having the chance to be born. In fact, we sealed our planet while my wife was pregnant with Ange to prevent that from happening to her."

Gerken had expected that the Wolf God had some grievances with the other universe because of his faction, but he never expected that he was implicated in that war even without being born.

In fact, Gerken always thought that implicating young children in wars was already the worst. He had never thought that someone could be so evil to curse and unborn child.

"By the way, very few people knew about this, keep it as a secret."

Although Yale didn't mind telling those matters to Ange's master, he didn't want that everyone learned about them.

"Don't worry. My lips are sealed."

Gerken wasn't a man with a lot of friends, and he didn't like to spread the secrets of others, so he never thought of telling about Yale's curse to others even if Yale hadn't asked him to not speak about it.

While Yale's incarnation and Gerken were speaking, Ange and Lily were starting to get used to their wings. They were far from dominating them, but at least they didn't fall each time they tried to fly using them.

Yale felt like teaching them how to fly or sending someone to teach them, but he knew that it would be bad for Lily if he did something, so he restrained himself.

"I guess that you can also transform right?"

Gerken was also observing Ange and Lily, so he asked Yale about that matter.

"I can, but this is something I obtained through my journey when I had my memories sealed, not something I was born with. It is quite difficult at the start getting used to things like wings, which aren't originally part of your body. However, when I learned to use them, I was far weaker than Ange and the person who taught me despite being used to them, was also far weaker than her, so I doubt that they would need too much time to be able to fly with the wings."

Wings weren't too useful for experts that could fly relying on their own power, but it wasn't impossible to find a place where flying was restricted, and only those who could do it naturally were able to fly, so Yale hoped that Ange would master the usage of wings quickly.

While Yale's incarnation was speaking, his main body was already working on improving Gerken's scythe.

That weapon was created by Tofesh and had incredible potential, but without Yale, that potential wouldn't turn into power.

After some hours, the scythe teleported from Yale's main body to the incarnation that was speaking with Gerken.

"Take it. With that scythe and your Scythe Essence, not even a World God would dare to underestimate you at your current level."

The scythe reached a level that far surpassed the level of the Essence Slayer Sword before Yale created the Ice Essence, but he had long since improved his weapons to a higher level.

All of them were at a level that transcended the limits for weapons in that universe, and Yale was the only native of the universe capable of doing something like that.

As for the Essence Slayer Sword and Lar's Sword, they were still the strongest, and even a mortal would be able to slay and Origin God wielding them. However, Yale was the only person who could use them.

Gerken's scythe was slightly better than the normal weapons crafted by Yale, but it was still far weaker than those two swords.

The Essence Slayer Sword was Tofesh's best weapon, and its potential had been far superior to that of the scythe.

As for Lar's Sword, after eating the souls of all the traitors, it was by far Yale's strongest weapon.

Yale was sure that if Lar managed to recover her human form, she would instantly become comparable to an Origin God, and not an ordinary one. She would be one of the most powerful Origin Gods.

However, Yale was completely unable to discover even from where he could start to investigate to restore Lar to her human form.

Gerken was shocked after wielding his scythe because he never imagined that it could become so powerful.

"If you are so good at crafting... Maybe you should be able to replicate this cloak? I obtained it from an inheritance, but even the person who left that legacy wasn't sure of its origins. This cloak can only hide one person, but If you can produce several of them, your mission in the war should be far easier."

That cloak had always been his most valuable possession and had never let anyone else investigate it, but he felt that if Yale managed to duplicate it, it would be of great use on the war, and after receiving that Path and the upgraded Scythe, Gerken felt that Yale was worthy of his trust.

"I mainly specialize in weapons because I have never seen some clothes that surpassed the limitations of this universe and I lacked references, but if you let me investigate that cloak, there is a chance I can replicate it even if the result is a bit inferior to the original."

Yale would lie if he said that he wasn't interested in that cloak because he had been interested in it from the start, but he wasn't someone who would covet the belongings of others and less if that someone was the master of his daughter.

"Then check it."

Gerken took the cloak and gave it to Yale's incarnation who started to study it.

He didn't send it to his main body, nor had any intention to do it. After all, if some mishap happened, Yale wouldn't be able to make it up for the loss.

If something had happened to the scythe, Yale had several scythes that were better than the one of Gerken before he improved it. Gerken would have accepted one of those as an apology since he didn't know how much his scythe could be improved.

However, Yale didn't have anything with an effect similar to that cloak, and if something happened to it, Yale was sure that there wasn't a second cloak like that in the whole universe.
