Last Wish System

The golems were troublesome opponents as they didn't feel pain and could restore themselves automatically. Battling with them was even more exasperating than fighting with Yale as his regenerative speed was slower Than the golems', and his tolerance to pain couldn't compare with theirs either.

Furthermore, their defenses were extremely strong, weak attacks had no effect on them.

Battling with swords alone wasn't enough to destroy them, everyone needed to use their best Combined Skills, and even using them, it was still difficult to damage the golems.

There were two ways to create a golem; one was with the caster supplying him with magic directly, the golem would be eternal as long as the magic provided by the caster didn't stop.

The first type main weakness was that the caster didn't have an unlimited supply of magic and could get exhausted. Furthermore, if the caster died the golem would also disappear.

The other type didn't require the caster's magic energy, that type of golems obtained their energy from a core which could absorb energy from the world. The rate of the absorption would be weaker in an environment with little earth, but inside a mountain, the chances of the core exhausting its power were zero.

The second type would only stop once they core had been broken. If the core were just exhausted, at most the golem would stop its actions until absorbing a bit more energy.

Yale and the others were battling was the core-powered type, they needed to destroy their cores to end them, but reach the cores wasn't an easy task as their external defense was extremely hard.

The only ones who could damage them enough to reach the cores were Yale, Kermu, and Durgan because they were at the expert stage and their attacks with the swords were far stronger than the attacks of the others.

However, even being at the expert stage, they only managed to reach the cores using their best skills, Yale was using the Water Battle Armor and Kermu his sword skill which used the space element.

Durgan was using a rapid skill related to the thunder element, but even being of the thunder element that skill was able to affect the stone golems.

Durgan's slashes were all quick and sharp, Yale wasn't able to determine the true nature of the skill as it was more complicated than what appeared at first sight. Durgan was worth of the title of a sword genius in a sword-focused noble clan.

While they dealt with six golems each one, the others were trying to fight with the other golems, but even with the help of Aizu's magic as support, the battle was a hard one. Their only chance was winning enough time to let the three expert stage swordsmen finish their golems first and come to aid them.

Hyrk alone was also fighting with six golems, but he was only defending, there were too many to win against them with his abilities, but he could endure a lot of time battling with them due to his high defenses.

Yale wasn't restraining himself to hide his real power from the Larken Clan, the situation was dangerous enough that didn't let him hide anything, he was even using Bloodline Force to be able to battle at the same level as Durgan who didn't even have the boost that Nurvey cast into him.

Without Nurvey's boost or without Bloodline Force, Yale wouldn't be able to damage the golems.

Durgan's battle prowess was the highest Yale had seen in someone at the 3-star mortal realm, Yale didn't know what kind of boost skills he had, but his physical strength and agility surpassed by far the limits of his realm.

Durgen smiled after seeing Yale's prowess, he felt that his previous decision wasn't wrong as Yale was able to battle at the same level as him; Durgan didn't know about Nurvey's spell, so he overestimated Yale's power a bit.

Yale didn't use the Minor Boost he learned before because the cost couldn't compensate for its effects as the level was still too low. If he had used it his prowess without Nurvey's boost would increase, but he wouldn't last for too long with that consumption rate, and he would still be weaker than with Nurvey's boost.

Fortunately, Yale didn't need to use Time Healing or Absolute Protection, so no time ripples appeared that could give clues about his secret identity.

The other four members of the Larken Clan suffered a lot of injuries before Yale, Kermu, and Durgan finished all the golems.

Even if they were able to finish all of them, they didn't do it quickly, and the members of the Durgan Clan didn't have Hyrk's strong defense which was even boosted by Nurvey's spell.

Serka had a rough time healing them all even if Aizu helped her with the wounds that could be treated with Basic Healing.

Hyrk was injured, but as Serka focused on healing him in the battle his state was far better than the Larken Clan members. They had high offensive power, but their defenses had room to improve. In a situation that their offensive power became useless, their value in battle dropped a lot.

Serka didn't dare to ask Yale for help as that would reveal his identity, and she also didn't want that the Larken Clan had more interest in him, she feared that his prowess in battle plus his healing powers would be too dazzling.

Aizu didn't know about Yale's true identity, but she didn't want that Yale caught more attention from the Larken Clan, so she didn't ask him to help in the healing process.

Furthermore, as Yale was one of three most valuable fighters in the battle, no one dared to disturb him when he started to learn the legacy skill with Durgan and Kermu. They had made the greatest contribution in the fight, so there was nothing wrong in them being the first in learning the legacy from the wall while the others were being treated.

The three of them weren't too skilled in the earth element so even if they started to learn before the others, the first in finishing learning the spell was Hyrk, who was extremely happy as he liked that kind of spell.

Yale needed half a day before he managed to use the spell for the first time.

"The user successfully created the Magic Skill [Stone Golem]"

"Stone Golem Level 1: Create a stone golem, the golem would be stronger at a higher level. It requires 5 Origin Points per minute, can be cast more than one time simultaneously. Mastery at level 100."

Spells for creating golems were challenging to learn and even difficult to obtain. Being able to learn a spell that let the user creating a golem even being in the mortal realm was something that could only be found in places like the special realm.

That kind of spell might seem something that the Larken Clan would dislike, but that wasn't the case.

They didn't want the golems to use them in battle, they wanted to use them as opponents for sparring as the golems were resistant enough and even if they break there wouldn't be any problem.

Even if such spell wasn't focused on creating golems with cores, with enough mastery it would make it easier to learn afterward.

Yale was interested in the golems with a core as he could use them to protect his sister who even being at higher realm than him had no battle prowess and as she disliked any type of fight she probably would remain without having any. A golem with a core and high defense would be an excellent guardian to her. Sadly, Yale had a long way ahead if he wanted to create something like that.

Even if learning the spell was difficult, the wall also had an enhancing effect in the learning speed, so everyone disregarding the talent, managed to learn it in at most two days.

"We shall depart now. If we have enough luck, then we can meet again in this special realm. Yale, I will look for you after we exit the realm."

With those words Durgan bid farewell and left with his fellow clan members, they could collaborate with other groups to obtain a legacy, but they wouldn't join with other groups after that, even of their clan wouldn't know if they did, their honor didn't let them disobey the clan orders.

"I will flee when I get out, good luck looking for me."

Yale thought that after hearing Durgan's words, he wouldn't dislike having a spar with him given his ability with the sword, but Yale didn't have any intention to join the Larken Clan or marry anyone.

"We should also return to the tunnel. If Yale's theory is correct, we should meet again with them at the center of the realm."

When Kermu said those words everyone turned serious, they didn't mind about meeting the Larken Clan again, but that time would also be when they resolved their differences with the shameless group.
