Last Wish System Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Roanmad Clan’s Gathering

Usually, after Yale finished the class, Swordmad gave him so advice and Yale returned to his room. However, the sa day Yale finished the fourth Dynamic Quest, Swordmad said sothing else.

“You have been training with for so ti, in the next month’s Clan’s Gathering you should do an exhibition battle and show your progress to the everyone.”

The Clan’s Gathering was sothing that happened once per year, and it was normal for so youngsters to show their abilities in exhibition battles. However, Yale didn’t expect that Swordmad wanted him to show off.

“All right, I won’t disappoint master.”

Yale didn’t have any reasons to refuse; he also wanted to test himself against others.

Yale continued training until the day of the Clan’s Gathering, but his stats and skills remained the sa.

Yale went to the Clan’s Gathering in a very good mood, not because of the exhibition battle but because his big sister would co back.

The Clan’s Gathering was considered quite simple there was a lot of food and alcohol for the adults, the only exciting part was the younger generations exhibition battles.

Yale took a wooden sword with him to use in the exhibition battle; real weapons were of course forbidden, the objective wasn’t to harm the opponent both participants should stop just before actually hitting the other.

Yale didn’t eat anything and went to a corner; he didn’t like being surrounded by a lot of people.

“Yale!”

A cute voice said while Yale suddenly got hugged. That person was Ange, Yale’s big sister.

She was almost twelve years old, her face was very gentle and had a long dark brown hair which matched with her dark brown eyes.

When she was beside Yale it was easy to tell that they were siblings, Yale’s hair was short and disordered but the color was the sa, and their facial features were also similar, Yale could be considered a pretty boy.

Ange was sure that if Yale interacted more with the world outside the clan, he would beco popular with girls, a pretty boy with a well-trained body was sothing that a lot of girls liked. Of course, Yale was still a kid and wasn’t interested in those things yet, but Ange liked to tease him.

“You have beco more handso after training your body, would you like big sister to introduce you to my friend’s little sister? I’m sure you would like her.”

Yale quickly disapproved with his head, he wanted to focus on training, and as he didn’t understand those matters, he didn’t want to think about them.

Yale spoke with his sister until the exhibition battles begun, Yale’s turn was the last, so he had a lot of ti to see the other battles while waiting.

Yale had quite a good eye for battles after training with Swordmad for more than a half year, so he analyzed the battles carefully, and he felt confident to win against all of them in a one versus one battle, although not all the battles would be easy, in the end, Yale would win.

However, Yale’s opponent was the only one Yale didn’t feel confident to win against. Although Yale never saw him battling, the opponent was soone considered highly talented within the clan and was almost ten years old.

The others didn’t dare to battle with him, but Swordmad wanted Yale to battle with the strongest among the younger generation.

That guy was nad Blackor and was a recognized illegitimate son of the clan. Furthermore, he always disliked Yale and beco very upset when Yale beco an apprentice of Swordmad. It was important to say that Blackor and Yale never interacted before, Blackor’s hate was only because of what he heard of Yale.

Blackor was quite tall for his age and had bulky muscles; he was a standard for a talented warrior, sothing that the clan valued a lot. Yale looked weaker than Blackor, but since he trained with Swordmad, everyone knew that they couldn’t judge Yale by his looks.

Both entered the stage with wooden swords in hand, that battle was a battle of swordsn.

“Lucky kid, after you lose today even your master would despise you.”

Blackor was a bully who looked down on everyone else and given his current status he didn’t fear Yale.

“I’m not here to talk.”

Yale was unmoved by Blackor words; his only interest was to win the battle.

The battle started with both charging forward. Blackor had a better body build, but Yale’s ability with the sword was greater than Blackor’s.

Both exchanged blows without stop, but each ti the swords clashed with each other, so the battle continued. Usually, the exhibition battles were quite quick, so this kind of battle was a rare sight.

The battle seed balanced but Yale was in a disadvantage, his body couldn’t compare with Blackor’s body, and he couldn’t go easy with such an opponent, Yale was getting exhausted.

Yale didn’t want to lose, but he knew the condition of his own body. He had to bet the battle on a faint; he decided to deceive Blackor to land a hit.

Yale suddenly changed his direction startling Blackor and pointed the sword towards Blackor’s neck. Feint successful.

“I win.”

After Yale stated his victory, he went back to his sister’s side, without giving the fight any importance.

Fortunately, Blackor was a muscle brain and only knew to be straightforward in battle; he was very weak at feints and Yale could exploit his weakness.

However, Yale lacked the speed to do such a feint in front of Blackor at the start of the battle.

Yale had the feeling that he was almost at the point of increasing his agility and put his hopes in increasing it in the battle.

Yale was at six points of Agility quite so ti already, he was hoping to reach the seventh point before the Clan’s Gathering, but in the end, he only reached it in the middle of the battle and managed to win thanks to that extra point of Agility.

Blackor didn’t want to accept that he lost the battle, but he couldn’t go against the elders of the clan, so he could only go back in silence.

A lot of clan mbers congratulated Yale including Ange, who was very happy for Yale’s victory.

However, Yale wasn’t interested in that as he went to check the newly acquired Elental Affinity in the Innate Talent nu, he completed the second sub-quest when he obtained the seventh Agility point.

“Light Elental Affinity: Perfect grade. The best affinity to practice light magic.”

Yale didn’t know how to react; he got perfect grade Elental Affinity for two of the most difficult to train normal elents. He was betting that if he got a third, with his luck, it would be darkness.

“Why that face, you won the battle.”

Ange said when she saw Yale’s facial expression.

“I won, but it was because Blackor was overconfident and a bit stupid, in a battle of pure strength I’m not his match.”

Yale quickly give a motive to his facial expression when he saw the new Elental Affinity, what he said was true but it wasn’t the reason for the weird expression on his face.

Yale continued chatting about the battle with his sister while checking the new sub-quest in the Quest nu.

“Sub-quest: All stats maxed as a mortal. Ti limit: Before reaching ten-years-old. Reward: Origin Path training thod.”

Seeing the new sub-quest Yale beco quite depressed, it seed that until maxing all of his stats he can’t get any more benefits from the Main Chain Quest.

“Roanmad clansn, I’m glad to have you all here again this year, I’m...”

The Clan Chief’s speech started, he was Yale and Ange great-grandfather, but he had too many descendants there was no way he could know all of them.

However, the Clan Chief knew about Ange and Yale; the first was soone very valued by the Nacesai Academy, the academy even sent so bodyguards to protect her from the shadows. And Yale was the disciple of Swordmad, soone who was even older than the Clan Chief.

However, with his position, knowing about Yale and Ange was already very good, there was no chance he would interact with the younger generation without important reasons. He only talked to Ange once never to Yale.

Suddenly the speech was interrupted, everyone fell silent with their eyes out of focus as if they were in a trance.

“What happened.”

Yale was startled, he didn’t know why everyone beca absent-minded at the sa ti, but the system replied to him.

“A powerful Illusion had been cast in the area.”

Yale then understood why he was unaffected; he had the Illusion Immunity Passive Skill.

However, Yale didn’t understand who or why would cast such illusion in the Roanmad Clan’s Gathering as it wasn’t the best ti to attack the clan, the illusion will only be effective for so seconds to the powerful mbers of the clan.

If the attackers wanted to go out alive they could kill at most one or two weak clansn; there was no need to wait until the day all of the clan gathered. Unless the target was soone that only ca to the clan on that day.

Yale face changed as he looked at his sister, she was soone that was usually never in the clan and killing her in the Nacesai Academy is almost impossible. Furthermore, her status as a healer was important to the whole city.

Yale thoughts were right; there was a shadow with a long spear rushing towards his sister.

Yale tried to move his sister to evade the incoming attack.

However, Yale could only move his sister’s body, after doing so his own body was in the attack’s trajectory.

Yale used his sword to try to block so of the incoming attack power, but the attack easily destroyed the sword, and the spear stabbed at Yale’s chest sending him flying.

Yale was under the world’s protection, and he didn’t provoke the other party, so the attacker beca heavily injured by the world’s laws, losing any chance to run away or anyone else.

“You dared to stab your spear into my disciple, you and your whole lineage are dead.”

That angry voice was from Swordmad, he didn’t co to the gathering, but he rushed there when he sensed sothing amiss.

However, he was too late, Yale managed to save Ange but got fatally injured in return.

Swordmad’s voice awakened the clan mbers who could only stare at the scene with confused eyes as Swordmad picked up Yale’s body in mid-air.

“All healers co quickly, or he will die!”

Ange who recently awakened cried as she ran to help Yale. All the other healers present, even those who only know so simple healing spells and couldn’t be considered healers did the sa. There was no ti for questions, saving a life was more important and the one asking for it was Swordmad, a very powerful figure in the clan.

The last thing Yale rembered before losing his consciousness was his sister crying his na.
