Last Wish System

Chapter 412

Although there weren't any corpses remaining in the palace when Yale, Lina, and the new king arrived, the smell of the death was still in the air .

"Everyone is dead . No, they supported my brother and harmed the kingdom; they deserved it . "

The new king knew that most of the people he knew were dead or in prison, but those who were killed by Yale had surrendered to the previous king and were accomplices of his wicked acts, so the new king felt that they deserved it .

"Harming those close to me has a price, and your Dwarf Kingdom already obtained a bargain, so you should be happy that there is a kingdom left . "

The new king nodded to Yale's words, and he didn't plan to complain . Fair or not, the strong was always the one setting the rules and Yale alone was enough to make his kingdom submit . Moreover, the new king knew that Lina was as fearsome as Yale and since they stated that they were a couple, messing with one of them was the same as messing with both .

Even a fool would understand that offending any of them was just asking for a calamity . Of course, those who usually did wicked acts had the chance of offending them without knowing like happened with the previous king .

The ones the former king offended weren't that important in his eyes, but they were backed by two powerful experts that shouldn't be offended .

"I know . Offending any of your friends would be punished with a death sentence from now on in this kingdom . "

The new king was serious about the matter since it could end attracting disaster to the whole kingdom .

Yale was quite happy with that statement as what he feared the most was that his friends would be harmed when he was unable to help them . After all, Yale wasn't omnipresent, so he couldn't be at all places at the same time .

That fact would be even more notorious after leaving the world as going back to help would be difficult, so Yale wanted to ensure that his authority was respected by everyone before leaving .

Yale was about to reply to the new king, but then the light disappeared from the new king's eyes, like if he had lost his soul .

However, before anyone had time to react, the light returned to the new king's eyes, but it looked quite different than before, like if he was another person .

The new king was about to speak, but Yale's intuition yelled him that he knew those eyes, and unconsciously spoke .

"Tofesh?"

The new king smiled before changing the words he was about to say .

"So, you can recognize me just by the gaze, as expected of my best and only friend . I came with just a bit of my consciousness and possessed this body, but you recognized me before I had the chance to explain . "

Tofesh was quite happy of seeing his friend again even though they could only meet for a short while .

"Anyway, there is no time to lose . I can't remain here for a lot of time and what I can say is limited . "

Yale had already guessed some of the truth behind Tofesh, and the way he appeared possessing the new Dwarf King just confirmed that his guess was correct . Thus, Yale didn't want to make things difficult for Tofesh by asking questions .

Lina didn't understand the situation, but she decided to not interfere since it wasn't related to her .

"Usually, it should be impossible for us to come in contact again after I died, but since I left an unsolved matter here, I can use a loophole in the rules to come . "

Tofesh was deliberately speaking like if he had returned from a world of the dead because saying that he came from a higher universe was forbidden .

However, Yale could understand correctly the situation, so there wasn't any need for them to clarify it .

"The sword I made for you is flawed . My pride won't let me forget about that matter, so I needed to return to solve that problem . However, right now it is impossible for me to improve it since I am just a strand of consciousness controlling this body . "

Tofesh smiled while saying that because he was leaving clues in his speech to say what he couldn't say, and he noticed that Yale understood .

For a mere trace of consciousness to control completely the body and soul of a Law God, the level of such an expert should be incredibly high .

"Then, my deceased friend, how can I help you to solve your last wish before returning to the place where you belong?"

Yale followed Tofesh's setting, but Tofesh understood that Yale was doing it on purpose .

"I can't improve it for you, and there isn't a single person in this universe capable of doing it . Thus, I will tell you the method, and you will be able to improve it yourself . The sword was created with your help, so we two are the only two people who can improve it, and since I can't do it anymore, you shall do it yourself!"

Tofesh waved his hand, and a stream of light flew towards Yale and fused with his soul .

"You will be able to obtain the knowledge after I disappear . Remember, I just gave you this knowledge to improve your sword and fulfill my last wish . This isn't for your benefit, understood?"

Yale understood those words perfectly . Tofesh was meaning the opposite of what he was saying . He was remarking that Yale could only improve the sword and that he didn't want to help Yale with it since it was just fulfilling the last wish .

Thus, Yale understood, that the knowledge should have other functions that Tofesh couldn't mention due to some rules, but that Yale should be able to deduce by himself .

Moreover, it was clear that Tofesh was doing it for Yale's sake, stating the opposite was just to mean that his previous sentence was the opposite to what he said .

There were too many rules when interfering with lower universes, but Tofesh was good seeking the loopholes . It was correct to interfere with a lower universe to solve a problem left behind like Tofesh was saying .

It wasn't something especially correct, but it wasn't forbidden either, so it was a gray zone .

However, helping people of a lower universe with knowledge of a superior universe was forbidden, but Tofesh was just solving the problem with the sword he created, and if Yale managed to extrapolate that knowledge to do something else, it wasn't his fault .

The loophole was simple, but without a great degree of understanding to each other, it would be difficult for both parties to understand each other without saying something that was forbidden .

Moreover, extrapolate the information wasn't easy at all, even using it normally would be almost impossible for others, so it also depended a lot of the one receiving it .

Tofesh trusted Yale and knew that he was able to understand it and even extrapolate the information to do other things .

The conditions were harsh, but the Celestial Knowledge was a huge cheat that could help Yale in that aspect; that was one of the motives for Tofesh being so excited when he saw that Yale could use the Divine Knowledge .

Moreover, the method he transferred to Yale didn't exist within the universe, and the difficulty would increase a lot for those who were tied to it, but those who broke free from the shackles of the time weren't truly bound, so the difficulty was far lower .

Yale just was a perfect match to that loophole and Tofesh was someone capable of exploiting that loophole to give Yale the best benefit without breaking the rules .

It was the same that when they forged the Space-time Judgement Sword if they hadn't been working together, they wouldn't have managed to craft it .

"Thank you Tofesh for entrusting me to fulfill your last wish . I will definitely fulfill it . "

Yale had yet to access that information and didn't know the information's true value, but he knew Tofesh, and if he went to give it to him, Yale would trust completely that information and use it to its fullest .

"My time is almost over . It has been a pleasure meeting you again, my friend . "

Tofesh knew that he didn't have any more time, but he knew that just that bit of time had been crucial as Yale obtained something that no one in their universe had .

"I am glad to have met you again . "

Yale showed his punch in front of Tofesh, and the latter did the same .

When their punched touched each other, both of them spoke at the same time .

"Goodbye, my friend . I hope to meet you even if it is on a different life . "

Those were the words they said to each other when Liye went to reincarnation, so it wasn't weird that they said it again when bidding farewell to each other .

However, for both of them, that was a promise that they would meet again . Yale still didn't know how to accomplish that, but he was confident in doing it someday .

Tofesh disappeared, and seconds later the king recovered the control of his body .

The king was about to ask what happened since he felt that he had passed away for a short while, but before he could ask, Yale shouted while the Celestial Knowledge activated on its own .
