Last Wish System Chapter 172
Advertisement
"Sir Yale, what can I do to change that future?"
Shirk didn't doubt the veracity of the prophecy, and he didn't want to let Sebe die. After all, Sebe and Yale were the main reasons for changing his life; he wouldn't let anything bad happen to them even if he had to die.
In Shirk's eyes, Yale was someone capable of turning a trash like him into someone with boundless potential, so if Yale had a method to save Sebe, he wouldn't hesitate in obey.
"You contact me immediately anytime Sebe asks you to rest, and then you must follow him in secret. If he is aware of your presence, he will insist on you going to rest, and that can end like in the prophecy. You should be ready to save him from a sneak attack; being beheaded isn't normal in a battle so it will be probably a sneak attack. Thus, even if you are weaker than Sebe, if you can save him from the sneak attack, Sebe should be able to deal with the attacker because someone powerful enough doesn't have any need to sneak attack him."
Shirk didn't know why Yale was that sure that it would be a sneak attack, maybe the opponent was that powerful that could kill Sebe with one hit without any sneak attack, but Shirk nodded because doing that was better than do nothing, and he had already decided to follow any plan Yale told him.
Shirk had only heard the prophecy, but Yale had seen the vision and Sebe's head relaxed expression wasn't from someone who had met an enemy, so he was almost sure that Sebe died without noticing anything. Moreover, based on that he also guessed that Sebe would die before that battle turned serious because there was no way he could have such a relaxed expression with the city in flames and hearing sounds of battle from the palace.
Yale also planned to track Sebe as he could save him with Absolute Protection and fake Sebe's death, but first Yale wanted to ensure that Wyba and Aiwai were safe as he didn't see them on the vision. Yale guessed that they could be in his Storage Space, but as he wasn't sure, he wouldn't go to help Sebe immediately.

Sebe was his friend, and Yale didn't want to see him dead, but he was less important than Wyba and Aiwai.
Yale stopped bothering about the future because he didn't know when it will happen, although the fact every vision happened within a short span of time had him worried.
Yale realized that he had a notification from when he was in the vision. After the experiment and the awakening of the Zhan Clan's bloodline, the sub-quest had been completed, and he received an additional function called Bloodline Radar.
Bloodline Radar was a function that let Yale know the direction of anyone who had any relationship with any of his bloodlines.
Wyba was the easiest to detect, but he could also feel Aiwai as both had a Frost Winged Wolf bloodline. There was also a vague feeling in the direction of the Revgen Empire, which Yale guessed was due to the members of the Zhan Clan and Ange, but as they were too far from Yale's location, Yale could just send that there was someone with his bloodline was in that direction, but he couldn't know the total number.
That new function was extremely useful in Yale's current situation because he would be able to know where his sisters were in case of danger.
After having tested the Bloodline Radar, Yale went to the Quest Menu to check the next sub-quest, those sub-quests were always helpful to Yale.
"Meet the remnant will of Anpaes. Reward: ???????"
Yale was shocked by that sub-quest. The problem wasn't because he needed to meet with the remnant will of Anpaes, but the fact that the system knew that Anpaes was dead and that there was a remnant will that he had left behind.
Yale was wondering if Anpaes died before him, his past life predicted his death or the system had a method to know if his past life friends were alive or not.
Yale couldn't believe that Anpaes died first because he knew that his soul was dissipating not too long after the creation of the Zuatania Republic. Although Yale didn't know how it was too long for an expert of his past life level, he knew that Anpaes governed for a long time and the Anpaes Kingdom and the Zuatania Republic were created at the same time. Thus, the chances of Anpaes dying before him were almost inexistent.

Thus, Yale didn't believe that Anpaes died before and the fact of predicting the deaths although it seemed possible, Yale doubted it, so he decided that the last option was the truth, the system had a way to verify in his past life friends were alive or not. Since tokens to verify if others were alive existed, Yale could believe that the Last Wish System was created with a similar function.
Finally, Yale went to check the description of his newly awakened bloodline. Although he was almost sure of what the description would say, he wanted to confirm in the case that the system had some extra information.
"Time Bloodline: Complete. Bloodline containing the power of the Time Law, allows the user to use easily time-related skills and improves the understanding of the Time Law. Failure in the synchronization with Wyba."
The description matched Yale's understanding of the bloodline, but he didn't know why there was a failure in the synchronization with Wyba.
"I will go to meet with my sisters. The experiments already ended; you can return to Sebe's side from now on. Remember, anything regarding my bloodline and the prophecy is an absolute secret. As for the experiments I did on you, I will report them personally to the king, so it is better to not spread it before hearing the king's opinion."
Shirk nodded, he didn't need a reminder to shut his mouth. Shirk wasn't very talkative and was very loyal to those who had shown kindness towards him.
Initially, Yale didn't have any intentions to report his research to the king even though he knew that there was no way the king knew nothing about it. However, the last sub-quest changed Yale's opinion because if there were some remnant will from Anpaes, the king was the best person to speak in order to obtain some information about Anpaes.
Yale didn't plan to expose his identity, but he thought that while speaking about the research, there was a chance to obtain some information from Anpaes.
Yale changed again to his half-beast form and restricted the Time Bloodline to avoid others noticing it. Although he could say that he was a divine beast, it was better to avoid attracting additional attention, especially when he knew that a conflict was going to start in the capital.
Yale left the room and went to meet with Aiwai and Wyba, it was already night, so Aiwai had returned from her work, and Yale felt with Bloodline Radar that both were together. In fact, he could have determined the same with mapping as beside Shirk and himself, they were the only ones at the house, but he wanted to use the newly acquired function.
When Yale reached the room, Aiwai rushed towards him being extremely nervous.
"Yale, I don't know what happened to Wyba, she was very well, but she suddenly started to have a lot of fever and lost her consciousness. The fever just faded as suddenly as it appeared just now, but she remains unconscious."
Aiwai was so much worried that he didn't mention the fact that Yale was still in his adult form. She was a healer, but her Water Healing didn't have any effect of Wyba's fever; Water Healing was the best type of healing to fevers, so Aiwai was unable to keep calm.
Yale would have been a moron if he didn't understand the reasons for that fever, the timing fitted with the time his Time Bloodline was active.
However, Yale couldn't understand why Wyba would suffer an intense fever instead of synchronizing correctly with the bloodline after the Time Bloodline activation, but he decided to investigate it later because it will be a problem if Wyba fell unconscious due to fever every time Yale activates his Time Bloodline.
Yale checked Wyba, but she was already well. She was just sleeping and would awaken soon without needing any healing.
"Sis, keep calm, she is just sleeping right now."
Although Yale knew the truth, he didn't plan to say anything to Aiwai; he didn't want to put more preoccupations on her.
