Last Wish System

When Yale had heard that the association had been waiting for him, he instantly thought in the item his past life wanted to obtain in the Zuatania Merchant Association after reincarnation.

"Nice to meet you again. You should have been waiting for me because you have something to give me, right?"

Yale was sure that the only reason the Zuatania Merchant Association could have waited for him was to give him the item he was looking for since he reached the Zuatania Republic.

Yale guessed that as he had used the Space-time Judgment Sword in the battle, the elders discovered his identity. Based on the elder's words, the first time they had met, he didn't identify him as the one they were waiting.

The elder smiled as Yale didn't turn arrogant after his importance to the association was revealed.

"So, you knew about it. This makes the things easy. Come with me, let's go to retrieve your item."

The elder was happy to have taught Yale before, due to it when one of the present elders needed to interact with Yale; he had a solid reason to do it instead of the other elders.

The elders didn't know who exactly Yale was, but the association's founder had ordered to the future generations that the one who appeared with that sword must be treated with the same respect than an elder, and anyone who disrespected him shall be instantly killed.

"Oh right, I almost forget. Since the Frost Wolf Company has absorbed half the wealth of a gold rank company, and you are one of its founders, your company will rank up to gold rank instead of bronze rank, as one gold rank company had just been disbanded there shouldn't be any problem."

The other gold company wasn't comparable to the Thousand Roses Company that was average among the gold rank; the disbanded company were almost ready to rank up again, the half of their wealth could just compete with the newest gold rank companies.

Oscro almost fainted from happiness when he heard the elder's words. Even in his wildest dreams, he had never thought of reaching the gold rank in less than two months, because by ordinary means that was impossible.

All the elders wanted to be on good terms with Yale; there were a lot of guesses about who would be the one with the sword that has to receive such an important treatment, some people said that it would be the founder's descendant or a legacy apprentice.

Furthermore, the founder was almost a deity to them, and anything or anyone related to the founder was worthy of respect. Thus, even if the relation Yale had with the founder was unknown since Yale was the person the founder ordered to wait for generations, his status turned extremely high in the eyes of those elders.

Yale left the arena with the elder after putting Wyba again on his head, any other matter related to the Frost Wolf Company was left to Oscro who would have a lot of work due to the sudden increase in the company's size.

They went to the Zuatania Merchant Association's building, but they entered by a different door, one that was restricted, and only those with some authority could use.

After that door there was only a room with a teleportation portal inside, the real core of the merchant association could only be accessed using that portal.

Yale wasn't affected by that teleportation portal, compared to the ones he had used before that portal was easy to cross. Of course, it was only easy to Yale who had an affinity to both space and time and had experience in crossing portals.

The elder didn't pay attention to the fact Yale wasn't affected by the teleportation portal. That was a daily routine for the elder, so he forgot to take in consideration Yale's age and realm.

Yale followed the elder into a huge room with a big artifact in the middle. Other elders were also present, and they were looking at them, the notices about the sword wielder having appeared in the arena had spread at high speed among the elders.

"You should be Yale, also known as the Silent Healer by common people. We have been waiting for you. I am Tar, the current chief elder of the Zuatania Merchant Association. In the past, I was one of the founder's disciples; it is a pleasure to meet someone else who had a connection with my deceased master."

A middle-aged man appeared from nowhere to greet Yale, even if he looked younger than the other elders, he was far stronger and older than them.

"Nice to meet you, chief elder. I have been looking for this item for some time, even if I have forgotten the reasons, thank you for safekeeping it for such a long time."

The chief elder looked at Yale with disbelief.

"You forgot the reasons?"

Yale nodded.

"I have amnesia, so I am unable to remember some things."

Tar didn't expect that explanation, but in that case, the fact Yale didn't look for the item in their custody immediately and instead went to create a company with another youngster had sense.

"Well, I hope you recover those memories someday. However, do you remember anything from the founder?"

The chief elder knew that Yale had talent as a healer, so if he didn't try to heal himself or to ask other healers to treat him, it should be because his amnesia wasn't something that could be simply healed using healing magic.

Moreover, the most important fact to Tar was if Yale knew anything about the founder as that would also clarify his relation. Even if he had amnesia since he managed to reach Trade City, Tar thought that Yale should remember a bit of his relationship with the founder.

Yale didn't know what to reply, he guessed that his past life had some relationship with that founder, but he didn't know anything about it.

Yale was about to say that he reached Trade City relying upon his instinct when a vision appeared inside his head.

"So, will you really die?"

A beautiful woman asked to the man in front of her.

"My soul is already starting to dissipate, my death is unavoidable, but I have methods to ensure my reincarnation."

Yale was looking at the scene from the man's point of view, but he was a mere spectator he couldn't control the man's body or mouth.

"You didn't come to my recently founded city only to say that, right?"

The man nodded.

"I want you to safeguard something for me. I will need it after reincarnation. Can I entrust it to you?"

The woman blushed a bit before replying.

"So, you only appeared in front of me to ask something after all. Alright, I owe you too many favors, and you saved my life in the continental war. I must repay you those favors or my merchant's soul would be let my sleep in peace."

The man smiled.

"Thank you, Zuatania."

At that moment, the sound of something hitting the floor sounded outside the room.

Zuatania opened the door and saw a little kid who appeared to have three or four years old, with his face into the floor.

"Tar, were you spying us?"

The kid quickly tried to stand up, but he was nervous and fell again.

"I wasn't spying you because my senior brothers asked me or something like that. I was only strolling here and fell to the ground."

Zuatania laughed as the kid was too bad lying. She had known that the kid was spying on them since the start, there was no way she didn't notice.

"So, it was an order from your senior brothers."

The kid was scared at Zuatania's smile, that smile indicated that some punishment would befall in his senior brothers and they would be angry with him later.

"This is my ninety-sixth disciple; I gave the name Tar to him. He is an orphan, so I picked him up as my new disciple. He is still too young to practice, but I have high expectations of him."

The kid's face turned red at Zuatania's praise and then ran off embarrassed.

"What an amusing kid. Right, take the item. I should leave now; my time is limited, and I still have to settle a lot of matters."

The man was about to take off the item when the vision ended.

***

Less than one second had passed in the real world since the vision started until it ended, but to Yale, that span of time was extremely important as he managed to see some consistent memories of his past life, he had never seen any memories from his past life that clear.

Furthermore, the trigger for that vision was obvious and right in front of him. Zuatania's ninety-sixth disciple, the orphan kid in his vision who was named Tar and at the same time the chief elder in Yale's current time.

That was the first time Yale met someone who had met his past life, even if he had only seen Tar once and didn't even speak to him.

However, Tar was indeed in his past life's memories and meeting him personally produced a resonance in Yale's soul.
