Chapter 301: Last Wish System Upgrade
In the top of a bed, Yale slowly opened his eyes disoriented and without knowing where he was.
There wasn’t anyone else in the room to explain the situation to him, so Yale needed a few minutes until he remembered everything on his own.
“That is right, this time I really died, but Origin Link activated and saved me…”
Yale remembered how his heart was pierced and his body sent to fly due to that shameless sneak attack.
Making an effort, Yale could also remember Liye’s actions while the Origin Link was active, but he couldn’t remember it everything as if there were parts that Liye didn’t want to let Yale see.
“Anyway, it seems that the True Empire is really finished, so it wasn’t a waste that Origin Link activated.”
Yale felt pain for the fact that his greatest trump card had been used, but he understood that he would have needed to use it later on against the True Empire or there was no way he could have won against them. Thus, Yale felt that the result would have been the same.
After Yale stopped thinking about that topic, Yale tried to check the Last Wish System, but instead of the usual reaction, the system sent him a notification.
“The Last Wish System has been upgraded.”
Yale was shocked after hearing that, but due to the fact that Yale knew that the Origin Link was Liye’s last chance to help Yale directly, he understood that the upgrade was something Liye did before the Origin Link ended.
After the notification, Yale finally accessed the system, and the first thing he did was checking the Stats Menu.
“Name: Yale | Age: 17 | Origin Level: 71 |Origin Points: 130M/13M”
“Vitality: 131M | Strength: 142M | Agility: 141M| Intelligence: 150M | Wisdom: 150M | Dexterity: 130M”
Yale couldn’t believe what he saw because the fact he had already turned seventeen meant that he spent a lot of time sleeping after the Origin Link’s effects disappeared.
The other shocking part was his level; he had skipped two whole ranks and entered directly into the Elder Rank. Although Yale was still at the 1-star Elder Rank, he was already half-way to the next one, but the difficulty to increase his level at that point wouldn’t be easily given the huge numbers he needed. The numbers of the stats had increased so much that the system started using an M to represent millions.
Although Yale didn’t dislike that huge increase in power, he felt that he cheated since he hadn’t put any effort in training and was unconscious the whole time.
What Yale didn’t know was that his increase in power was mostly due the fact that Liye fused the Condensed Essences with Yale’s body, so the potential of the physical body reached a whole new level and it would have been difficult for Yale’s level to advance less given that situation.
Yale didn’t find anything strange in his Skill Menu even though his swordsmanship had reached the level nine of the grandmaster stage despite being only at the level one before Origin Link activated. Of course, that increase was due to the fusion with the Condensed Sword Essence.
The menu that had changed a lot was the Quest Menu, it wasn’t subdivided into types like before, but it had only a list of quests listed as main quests.
Of course, all the quests Yale had from before the upgrade had been already completed making that the Storage Space improved and that information about the Condensed Essences appeared in his head, but Yale had yet to check that information.
As for the new Quest Menu, there was only a single line on it after the list of completed quests.
“Requirements not meet. The quest will appear once the user fulfills the conditions.”
That behavior was new to the Quest Menu, but Yale guessed that it was probably part of the upgrade of the Last Wish System as the other two menus he had already checked didn’t have any change in their functionality.
Yale also checked the Craft Menu, which he rarely used, but it was like the Stats Menu and the Skill Menu, it didn’t seem to have changed.
When Yale was already thinking about if the upgrade was only meant for the Quest Menu, he noticed that a new menu had appeared in the Last Wish System.
“So, that menu should be the main reason for the upgrade.”
That new menu was called Authority Menu.
“Current world: Second level World’s Authority.”
Yale remembered something about Liye using that World Authority before, but given the difficulty in using it, Yale knew that wouldn’t be useful for him in the near future.
However, that wasn’t the only thing displayed on the Authority Menu.
“Body Authority: The body is fused with Condensed Essences of Life, Death and Sword, the control over them increases disregarding everything else.”
Yale also remembered how Liye fused with those Condensed Essences and became a Fake Essence God, so that wasn’t anything relevant to Yale either.
However, the next part was the one that kept Yale’s interest because was labeled as Law Mastery.
“Sword Law: 0% understood.”
“Life Law: 0% understood.”
“Death Law: 0% understood.”
“Time Law: 0% understood.”
“Space Law: 0% understood.”
“Water Law: 0% understood.”
The only Laws that appeared in the list were those in which Yale obtained some insight or those in which his bloodlines gave him an affinity with, but Yale’s current mastery of the laws was far too shallow so no matter how it was rounded it could only appear as a zero.
Moreover, it was publicly said that was impossible to train in the Laws before reaching the Grandmaster Rank, so Yale didn’t feel weird that he was still in 0% of progression, it was already a feat that he understood a tiny bit.
Finally, there was the last part called Essence Mastery, but the lines in it were even less than in the Law Mastery section.
“Sword Essence: 0% understood.”
“Life Essence: 0% understood.”
“Death Essence: 0% understood.”
Of course, there was no way the numbers of progression in Essences were higher than in the Laws, and only the essences related to the three Condensed Essences fused with Yale’s body appeared there.
“Well, this new menu it is really useful for my future training.”
The menu was a great help for Yale as he didn’t have any way to measure his own control of the Laws and Essences previously. The main reason for that was that since Liye didn’t plan to seal his memories, he didn’t need such a function as he would have known very well his own progress without the need of any menu.
Yale stopped checking the Last Wish System, he didn’t know if there was any other improvement, but at least there wasn’t anything else that he could notice at first sight, so he chose to not waste more time and decided to leave the room.
After that, Yale got up of the bed, but something unexpected happened when he put his feet on the floor; the floor was broken instantaneously with numerous cracks appearing in the whole area that surrounded the place where he stepped on.
“What?”
Yale was surprised and fell to the bed due to the shock, which provoked that the bed also broke due to the impact.
“How can I break things so easily?”
Yale was shocked by how easily he broke the floor and the bed, but he calmed himself after a few seconds
“Relax, my power increased a lot, so maybe I only need to get used to it, and I will stop destroying everything.”
It was just as Yale said, due to the sudden increase of power in his body, it was difficult for him to measure his strength correctly just after awakening provoking that he unintentionally broke the floor and the bed.
Yale discarded the idea of going out on such uncontrolled state as there was the danger that he would clash against someone else and kill that person on the spot if that person level was lower than his own.
Slowly, Yale stood up again, concentrated in controlling his strength and managed to only create tiny cracks while walking.
“This is better than before, but I need so much concentration just to avoid destroying everything, so it isn’t efficient enough. I need to practice more before going out, or Revgen would laugh at me.”
Yale would really feel ashamed if someone else saw him in such state. Although those weaker than him, or even Swordmad, wouldn’t say anything despite his lack of control, Revgen would surely laugh about that for some thousands of years, which Yale didn’t want to happen.
In the end, Yale needed more than four hours until he was able to control his strength correctly. Although his self-control was lower than before using Origin Link, at least there wasn’t any danger of him breaking everything due to losing his concentration.
That time, Yale sighed in relief and finally left the room, he wanted to know everything that happened in the span of time he had been sleeping.
