Chapter 186: Wyba’s Changes
Yale opened his eyes lying on a prairie; his memories were fuzzy.
He remembered that he had met with the will of Anpaes and that his past life appeared due to the Death Bloodline, but he couldn’t remember very well after that moment.
“Ugh, my head hurts.”
After a while, Yale managed to clear his mind a bit and looked at the surrounding searching for Wyba and Aiwai.
“Is she Wyba?”
Yale found that near him was a little girl lying on the floor, but although the size of the girl matched with Wyba’s size, that girl didn’t have wolf ears or tail.
“Maybe my past life did something to her? I feel my bloodlines active, but there is no fever on her body.”
Yale touched her forehead, but as he had thought, she was just sleeping, and there were no problems with her body.
“Let’s try to use Appraisal on her.”
Yale knew that the little girl in front of him was Wyba because of their contract, but he was curious about what had happened to her and hoped that Appraisal would give him a clue.
“Name: Wyba | Age: 5 | Origin Monster Level: 20 | Human Level: 0 (Sealed)” “Synchronized Bloodlines: Time Freezing Wolf Bloodline, Time Bloodline, Death Bloodline.”
“Life-bound contract with the user | Potential bound to user’s realm | Bloodline always equal to the user.”
“Vitality: 1000 | Strength: 1000 | Agility: 1000 | Intelligence: 1000 | Wisdom: 1000 | Dexterity: 1000”
“Skills: Frost Claw, Ice Spear, Bloodline Force, Body Illusion, Shape Shift, Water Healing, Time Healing, Poison Claw.”
Yale was shocked for the information Appraisal displayed for Wyba because she was already at the Apprentice Rank which should be impossible as she couldn’t surpass Yale’s level. Moreover, she had a new sealed parameter for the level in which Yale didn’t know its meaning.
He also noticed that Wyba had two new skills which he guessed that were related to her new bloodlines. However, speaking of bloodlines, what Yale didn’t expect was that Wyba’s Frost Winged Wolf Bloodline had changed into the Time Freezing Wolf Bloodline, but after thinking about how his past life was the one who gave the divine beats bloodline to Anpaes, it wasn’t that strange.
“Name: Yale | Age: 15 | Origin Level: 20 |Origin Points: 1000/1000”
“Vitality: 1000 | Strength: 1000 | Agility: 1000 | Intelligence: 1000 | Wisdom: 1000 | Dexterity: 1000”
Yale had also reached the Apprentice Rank without knowing it; that was something logical after having seen Wyba’s level. Moreover, he was at the peak of the starless stage, he just needed to train a bit, and he would reach the 1-star Apprentice.
The reason for that power-up was the modifications Liye made on Wyba, although his intention wasn’t helping them increase their power directly, Wyba needed to reach the Apprentice Rank to support those modifications and stop suffering due to the bloodlines, so Yale ended being also powered-up a bit as Wyba couldn’t surpass him in power level.
Checking the Last Wish System, Yale noticed that his beast bloodline had changed like Wyba’s; their synchronization was still working well.
“Time Freezing Wolf Bloodline: Complete. Bloodline of the Time Freezing Wolf divine beast, let the user use Time Freezing Wolf Techniques. It gives the capacity to communicate with wolves. Laws involved in the bloodline: Water, Time, Death. Synchronized with Wyba.”
He had faked having such bloodline before, but he didn’t expect to obtain the real one that easily.
The Frost Winged Wolves were related to the Time Freezing Wolves as the rumors said, so Liye had just needed to help Wyba’s bloodline to transform into it. Moreover, as two of the three laws related to such divine beast were already on obtained bloodlines, the upgrade was easy for someone like Liye.
Each divine beast was related to a different number of laws and having three like the Time Freezing Wolves was very good. Two of the laws were already laws contained in the legacy bloodlines, but the Water Law in the Time Freezing Wolf bloodline was still a good addition to Yale’s potential.
After that, Yale checked the Death Bloodline he obtained from Anpaes.
“Death Bloodline: Complete. Bloodline containing the power of the Death Law, allows the user to use easily soul-related skills and poison-related skills. Improves the understanding of the Death Law. Synchronized with Wyba.”
The Death Bloodline was similar to the Time Bloodline, but Yale didn’t expect that it also had an effect on poison-related skills. The bloodline had even changed Yale’s talent in the Poison Element from low grade to perfect grade.
The Death Law had a close relationship with the soul and poisons, so the only boost in elements was to the poison element because although soul-related skills existed, the soul wasn’t an element.
Yale also obtained the same new skill as Wyba, Poison Claw, it was a skill inherent on Time Freezing Wolfs although one of the most basic ones; a lot of beasts had skills similar to that one.
“Poison Claw Level 1: Covers the user’s hand with poison. Poison Element. It requires 1 Origin Point. Mastery at level 20.”
Yale didn’t like a skill like that, he would rather end his opponents directly than poison them, but he thought that it could be useful for punishments if he managed to understand the strength of the poison. In any case, he obtained that skill without looking for it, so he didn’t mind too much if it was useful or not.
He also discovered another new skill that was under a different group than the others, it was Soul-search and was classified as a Soul Skill.
“Soul-search: Extracts all the information from the target’s soul, high possibility of damaging the target’s soul in case of the target not collaborating. It will fail if the target opposes too much resistance.”
Usually, using something like Soul-search will be impossible without controlling the Death Law a bit or using a formation to support the skill, but the Death Bloodline alone was more than enough to let Yale use it. However, due to Yale’s low power, he wouldn’t be able to use it as freely as true experts who learned it from understanding the Death Law.
In the Quest Menu, Yale had completed the second Main Chain Quest after having reached the Apprentice Rank, and his Storage Space increased tenfold due to the reward of the Skill Quest he had completed due to it.
There was a new Skill Quest that followed the previous one, but after reading it, he started to feel his head aching.
“System special function improvement: Storage. Complete the third Main Chain Quest. Reward: The system will increase hundredfold the size of [Storage Space]. Time will be able to flow inside the [Storage Space] making possible to live in the areas with the time flowing.”
Scenes from Liye’s conversation with Aiwai started to flow in his mind and tears appeared on his eyes.
“So, this is the truth…”
After a while, Yale had recovered the memories of everything happened after Liye’s awakening until he stored their house, but he was unable to remember anything else; there wasn’t any trace of the Mysterious Expert existence on those memories.
“I need to train faster to be able to see sis again. She believed in me; I can’t disappoint her.”
Yale knew that he would need to reach the Practitioner Rank and complete his new Main Chain Quest to be able to create a place where Aiwai could live inside the Storage Space. That turned into his first objective at that moment because he felt guilty for Aiwai’s situation as he was the one who had wanted to go to the capital.
Of course, without Yale’s help, Aiwai would have ended enslaved by the Bear Overlord, but that couldn’t ease Yale’s conscience.
“Master the use of Spiritual Sense (Rank 2). Reward: Stats and Origin Points increase.”
The first sub-quest was almost the same as the first in the previous Main Chain Quest, and the reward was just a power-up in stats and Origin Points, but that was just what he needed.
Yale sat beside Wyba and started to train his improved Spiritual Sense. He didn’t know where he was, but he felt the presence of those with the same bloodline as him nearer than before, so he guessed that he should be nearer than the Revgen Empire than before or he was already in the Revgen Empire.
However, he didn’t mind about that, returning to Nacesai City wasn’t his priority anymore; he would return, but he wanted to focus all his attention on training.
Yale didn’t move for the next days because Wyba continued sleeping until the fourth day.
Although Yale, didn’t understand all the changes on Wyba, he knew that she wasn’t in danger, so he just trained patiently beside her waiting for her awakening.
When Wyba opened her eyes, she looked at her surroundings confused.
“Where is this place? Wyba’s body feels weird.”
At that moment, Yale stopped his training and patted Wyba’s head; he knew that explaining Aiwai’s situation to her would be difficult and he didn’t even know how to explain Wyba’s own changes to her.
