Last Wish System

"Interesting. Really interesting."

Great God Kroh smiled while observing how Yale changed the past after successfully obtaining the Minor Time Divinity.

"I never expected that this workaround was possible, but I doubt that someone besides him can do it in this way."

Great God Kroh was really impressed about how Yale lowered the conditions for the breakthrough, but since it was only useful if one achieved the False Time Divinity and also became a False God, the method seemed to be something exclusive from Yale.

After all, no one else even reached that level between immortality and godship, it was an irregularity that Great God Kroh doubted that would happen again.

Great God Kroh saw Yale returning to his time but decided to continue seeing what happened in the changed past.

The young man rushed to speak with his father, and remembering Yale's words about his death, if he rushed, he cast Absolute Protection immediately.

From the young man's room to the place where his father was, there was quite a distance, so he needed about an hour. If he had gone to the trial, he would have reached it almost at the same time.

He was weak compared to his father and Yale, but the young man wasn't stupid and deduced that since he would die if he went to speak with his father, the time he would reach the place should be almost the same his father would be attacked, and thus, he didn't hesitate in using the trump card Yale gave him.

As expected, at the moment his father welcomed him and asked him what he needed, a guard attacked the Emperor killing him on the spot.

Or that should have happened, but the young man jumped between the guard and the Emperor receiving the attack.

Even trusting Yale's words, he was unable to see his father die in front of him. If everything would be nullified afterward, he believed that nothing would happen even if he died.

The Absolute Protection ended soon afterward, but the Emperor had already confirmed his son's death and stole the weapon the guard used.

"This poison is too strange. It could have killed me. However, it seems to be of one use only."

All the guards in the room were unable to move after the Emperor released all his strength to suppress them.

Only one attacked, but the Emperor didn't trust them after what happened.

"I will need to search through your souls. Everyone involved with this matter will die."

The Emperor was very serious since that betrayal could have killed him and ended up killing his son.

"Don't worry father, I will tell you who the traitors are."

Since Absolute Protection ended, the young man was conscious again.

"What? You were dead a moment ago. What happened?"

The Emperor couldn't believe what he was seeing. He knew that even his son's soul was destroyed by that poison.

"It is all thanks to the trump card my master gave me. He told me that this would happen, so I came to tell you, but that bastard was already ready to attack."

The Emperor didn't know that his son had a master. Everyone in that universe was weaker than him, the Emperor, so he didn't believe that his son accepted to be someone else's disciple.

However, he had seen how his son resurrected just a moment ago, and he knew very well that he couldn't do that.

"Who is your master?"

Regardless of who that unknown master was, he had done a great favor to the universe by preventing that murder attempt, so the Emperor was very curious about his identity.

"I don't know too much about Master Liye. He just sent a bit of consciousness to materialize in front of me, explained what would happen, and gave the trump card I used. He also told me that his subordinate was somewhat related to my mother."

The Emperor's face changed when he heard those words because he knew that his deceased wife hadn't gone to other universes before ascending, so most likely those she knew had a strength comparable to hers, and if that person was just a subordinate of Master Liye, it was difficult to measure how strong that person was.

Anyway, he was sure that Master Liye came from a higher universe.

His deductions were pretty bad, but there was no way he could guess the truth with just the information he had.

"I see. Is he also who told you who are the traitors?"

The young man shook his head.

"No, he didn't, but when I was killed, I had a strange dream. A dream about a future where I didn't meet my master, and this plan succeeded. The whole universe fell into the hands of my big brother, and everyone supporting you was killed."

Those were the memories of the other timeline that Yale gave him at the same time as Absolute Protection, but they could only appear as dreams and were vague. However, that was enough to identify the traitors.

"Maybe you really saw the future. The skill you used is undoubtedly related to the control of time, so this may be a side effect. No one in our universe has even managed to learn a skill that could affect the time itself. If it weren't for the information that I received from your mother a bit before she was killed, I wouldn't even know."

That was the only way the Emperor could explain what he saw.

"Time... Resurrection... That time I heard from your mother that someone called Great God Kroh could do something like that. Are you sure this Master Liye isn't just an alias of Great God Kroh?"

The Emperor just heard a fragment of the rumor, so he didn't even know about the resurrection conditions.

"No, in my dream also heard something about this topic, but I can't remember properly. Something about two persons in the multiverse being able to resurrect others. I believe that my master is the other one."

The Emperor didn't have too much knowledge about the topic either, so he didn't think that it was impossible that two persons were able to do it.

If at that time, he told that to anyone in a higher universe, they would have been extremely surprised, but they would have known that something like Absolute Protection wasn't resurrecting someone.

"Interesting. Didn't he give you a way to contact him? I want to give him my thanks personally."

It didn't matter if Master Liye was comparable to Great God Kroh or not because he was still strong enough to win the Emperor's respect.

"It was something like keep looking about the information of ascending universes."

The Emperor nodded. He didn't understand the reason for that condition, but he didn't think that he could comprehend someone that powerful.

"Then, let's do it. Anyway, now we need to focus on those traitors."

After that, the son of the Emperor started to point all the traitors, and when scanning their memories, the Emperor discovered that they were all guilty.

The other son of the Emperor discovered that his plan failed and tried to flee, but he had the worst luck of the universe, literally.

Everything he didn't want to happen happened, no matter how improbable it was.

It seemed as if the fate itself wanted to get rid of him, and indeed that was the case.

Without knowing it, Yale had overwritten the fate of the universe with his own will, so his hate for the person who was the Emperor in the time he was before going to the past provoked that the universe itself turned against that man.

That man couldn't go against fate, so despite all his plans, he ended up being caught by his father and executed publicly as a traitor.

Meanwhile, the other son of the Emperor successfully completed the trial and became the Emperor's successor.

The day he became a ninth level immortal, he became the new Emperor while his father retired to train alone, trying to reach godship.

He wasn't just a ninth level immortal; he studied Absolute Protection until he started to obtain knowledge about the time itself.

Some years before Yale and Tofesh would reach his universe, he managed to reach the bottleneck before the Minor Time Divinity.

Great God Kroh couldn't believe that Yale's interference created someone else at the bottleneck.

"This guy is really lucky. To think that on his first big interference, he would create someone with an unknown fate. This is the quickest but most difficult way of obtaining Divine Accomplishment."

Divine Accomplishment was something that could be obtained by acting in a way that aligned perfectly with the Divinities, but the quantity obtained was almost negligible, and unless spending at least several millions of years, it was impossible to obtain great improvements.

The effects of Divine Accomplishment were increasing the power regardless of the level. Moreover, reaching a certain quantity of Divine Accomplishment was the only requirement for surpassing Great God.

The rumors were true, Great Gods weren't the strongest ones, but they all hid it from others. Great God Kroh was the first surpassing Great God, but several other old members of the Council of Gods did it too.

"A good start, but he isn't even a Great God yet, and although this is worthy of millions of years of great effort for those with other divinities, it is still far from enough to fulfill the conditions to surpass Great God. Interesting anyway."
