Last Wish System

The people that were watching Yale's battle felt like if they were seeing a ninth level immortal punish an eighth level immortal instead of a seventh level immortal battling an eighth level immortal.

They could only sense awe and fear in front of their Governor's master because they thought that no one in their country would be able to resist in front of him. Especially that last attack, which seemed unavoidable.

Almost everyone was speechless while the criminal's body broke after being frozen and the sword that killed him returned to Yale's hands.

"As expected of my master, he is as unfathomable as always."

The Governor was the only one who could speak in front of that scene. He knew very well that he wouldn't end up better than that criminal if he needed to battle against his master. Fortunately, he never had that kind of intention because he valued his master a lot.

Although he could feel that Yale lacked in pure power, his control of elements and weapons was more than enough to cover the gap and even obtain an absolute advantage.

In that universe, there weren't Laws or Essences that people could learn, so everyone needed to learn from scratch or obtain a master who was extremely proficient in teaching the topic they wanted to learn.

The only thing that Yale developed by himself was the ice element, but he had a lot of knowledge to back it up, it was vastly different from starting from zero.

The Governor managed to become strong thanks to his experiences in Yale's universe. Although he never managed to learn how to control elements to the point that he didn't need the support of Laws or Essences, the experience he obtained in swordsmanship was more than enough to make him more powerful than other at his same level.

Moreover, he obtained a lot of mental resilience thanks to his experiences there and that maturity had also been important when he trained.

It wasn't for nothing that ascenders were considered to be always strong. Although training in lower universes was extremely more difficult, those who despite that reached the top were far more experienced than others who didn't have those hardships.

As for the universes with special properties to learn elements and such at lower levels, there were too few, and they were usually related somehow with a Great God, so most people wouldn't dare to attack before confirming that universe's background.

A Great God mustn't be enraged, or a universe could disappear suddenly. Of course, there were also people who were willing to take risks or just ignored them.

Powerful families usually tried to send their children to lower universes to train, but only the souls could be sent, and it was difficult to know exactly the destination unless someone had used that same method before.

However, most of the times, the destination didn't matter since the travel was mostly to harden the minds of the ones sent.

The Governor didn't have a background, but he managed to obtain information about how to do it and recklessly tried it, which made him lose his memories while in Yale's universe.

In fact, he was lucky, using such an incomplete method he had managed to survive and bring back his experiences in the lower universe.

The Governor had yet to tell Yale how he managed to do that travel, but he would rather not tell it because it was too shameful. Thus, if Yale didn't ask, he didn't plan to embarrass himself.

At that moment, Yale returned to the place where his disciples were. He ignored the reactions of others.

On the other hand, he was more interested because Lar's sword seemed to be unable to consume the soul of that criminal in one go, but it was still consuming it slowly after erasing that souls' consciousness.

Yale felt that eating that soul would be enough to boost Lar's sword level until at least seventh level immortal.

"Master, you are incredible."

Jika's eyes were sparkling with joy after Yale killed that criminal. After all, she had heard the word of that criminal and knew that he was the one who provoked that she was born fated to become a slave.

Dan was also excited because he saw with his own eyes that his master wasn't just proficient in using ice to create ice wolves. The battle prowess that Yale displayed showed that his words about his own skills were true.

The control of ice that Yale had shown was enough to provoke that everyone in the city wanted to become his disciple, but after that battle, everyone was already crazy thinking if there was any way to turn into Yale's disciple.

However, no one managed to think a method that wouldn't enrage Yale. They all knew that powerful experts wouldn't pick a disciple just because others asked it; pestering an expert with that would just enrage the expert.

"Alright, Jika. I will now tell you the two options to deal with the curse, but I need to tell you that neither of them is an easy solution without aftereffects."

That curse was extremely difficult to heal, and it was already great that Yale could manage to find two methods.

The problem was that the curse was tricky and had traps to activate if it was broken.

"The first one is the simplest method. I will destroy the curse of your soul, which will make you reach immortality immediately. However, if I do this, you will never be able to train again."

That option was straightforward, and if the other party didn't have any ambition to continue training, it wasn't bad, but Yale knew that Jika wouldn't like it.

"What is the other option? I want to turn strong and beat those in my country as revenge, I don't want to lose that goal..."

Just as Yale expected, Jika didn't like that option.

"The second option won't limit your training, and in fact, your potential will be even higher than the one you would have had naturally without the curse. However, the process will be long and hard. Even Dan will suffer if you choose this method."

Jika and Dan couldn't understand why Dan would be harmed by that method.

"This method requires reincarnation. I will control the cycle of reincarnation to make you reincarnate in a new body. Moreover, for this method, I need to seal your memories, so you won't remember anything until reaching immortality."

After that explanation, they understood why Dan would suffer. It would be psychological suffering due to seeing his beloved become a different person. In fact, it was difficult to say if their relationship would be the same after Jika recovered her memories.

That made Jika hesitate. She didn't want to renounce to her future, but she didn't want to harm Dan either.

Moreover, she didn't want to remain weak while Dan turned strong because that would make her feel as if she was useless.

"I also need to tell you that you won't be a human. This curse wants to deny that you are a human, so reincarnating as a human won't harm it at all. If you choose this option, you will reincarnate as a wolf. Although later you will be able to take partial human form and a complete human form, I can't ensure that it won't affect the way you think."

That was an experiment that Yale had never made, so he wasn't sure of how much it would affect her. When Aiwai was transformed, she already had a wolf bloodline form the start, so it wasn't the same. Moreover, Aiwai hadn't been reincarnated, nor had her memories sealed.

Any beast would have worked. Yale just chose a wolf because he had an affinity with them and could create a wolf body that had the Wolf God bloodline, which would benefit her a lot. At least, Yale felt that it would be weird if she didn't learn how to control ice naturally.

After hearing Yale's words, Jika's hesitation just increased. She never thought that one day, she would have to choose between giving up her future or her humanity.

She could understand that in the end if she took human form, she wouldn't look different than a human, but she felt that probably she wouldn't be able to see Dan with the same eyes since probably Dan would take care of her.

She feared that she would see Dan as her owner, and he would see her as his pet.

Although she wanted to believe that Dan wouldn't treat her different, it was difficult for her to see Dan treating a wolf in the same way as he treated a girlfriend. Especially when she wouldn't have her memories, so her mind wouldn't be different from that of a normal wolf.

"Jika, don't worry about me and choose what you really want. Master, if Jika chooses to reincarnate. Can I also reincarnate? We have been childhood friends this life, so I also want to be with her in the next."

Dan was resolute. For him a life without Jika would be a torture, he would rather reincarnate with her and share her fate.

"Reincarnating into a beast also implies that your soul will be transformed into the soul of a beast, Jika needs it to heal her curse, but to you, that would just forbid you to become human again no matter how many times you reincarnate, are you sure?"

Dan smiled.

"If it is for Jika's sake, I don't care."
