《Last Wish System 》Chapter 15: VS Fire-wood Tiger
Advertisement
After standing in front of the Fire-wood Tiger, Yale also identified the species of the big white wolf.
It was of rare species called Frost Wolf, that species was similar to the common Snow Wolf, but a Frost Wolf had better Innate Talents than an ordinary Snow Wolf.
However, the main elements of a Frost Wolf were ice and darkness, and in the current environment, those elements weren’t in any advantage.
Ice was a subcategory of the water element and only having the affinity for ice would give one only the talent to practice the ice section of the water element.
At midday inside a forest, the ice element couldn’t be used at its maximum efficiency, and on the other hand, the fire element from the Fire-wood Tiger got boosted, and the current location was the most advantageous for it.
Furthermore, with the Frost Wolf’s weakened state the battle against the Fire-wood tiger was a completely disadvantageous one for the Frost Wolf, the only reason the battle continued until now was that the Frost Wolf was a 3-star monster and the Fire-wood tiger only a 2-star monster.
Yale sighed as he started attacking the Fire-wood Tiger with the sword as well.
Yale’s attacks were even less effective than the Frost Wolf’s, but at least they divided a little of the Fire-wood Tiger’s attention.
While the Fire-wood Tiger attacked Yale, the Frost Wolf had a chance to attack.
Yale was quickly injured, and Auto-regeneration kicked in, Yale wouldn’t be able to battle for long without Auto-regeneration.
After some time, all of them sustained injuries with Yale being in the worst state followed by the Fire-wood Tiger who resisted attacks from both Yale and the Frost Wolf.
In the battle, Yale’s Auto-regeneration reached level two improving his regeneration speed a bit, and Yale even found his battle prowess enhancing due to the experience of a battle risking his own life.
The Fire-wood Tiger was enraged as it found it difficult to eat the delicious young wolf cub due to the Frost Wolf’s and Yale’s combination of attacks. The Fire-wood Tiger thought that he could kill Yale easily, but the Frost Wolf attacked viciously every time the Fire-wood Tiger got distracted by attacking Yale.

That was the main reason Yale survived until now, his injuries weren’t from direct hits, and even in that situation, he was the most injured from the battle. A 2-star monster wasn’t something that Yale could battle straightforward as he did.
Yale got very scared when the Fire-wood Tiger sent the Frost Wolf flying and charged towards him right after. However, he never reached Yale as the Fire-wood Tiger changed directions and shoot toward the small wolf cub who was near Yale.
Yale was near enough to reach the small wolf cub, but with his power he couldn’t block such an attack while protecting the small wolf, to save the little wolf he only had one choice.
Yale quickly reached the small wolf before the Fire-wood Tiger and without hesitation used his trump card, Absolute Protection.
Everything in five meters around Yale became static, even the drops of blood stopped in mid-air.
That was the first time Yale used Absolute Protection, and he became absorbed in the effects of the Legacy Skill.
While Yale became lost in his thoughts, the Fire-wood Tiger attack reached him destroying his body and also killing the small wolf cub.
However, Yale and the little cub were still well after that as if that vicious attack never happened, that attack became no more than a mere illusion as it never happened in the flow of time.
That happened in the blink of an eye, the Fire-wood Tiger sensed that it killed both of them, but they were perfectly fine. Even the Frost Wolf didn’t understand the situation as it had also seen that scene. However, the Frost Wolf didn’t hesitate as it attacked the shocked Fire-wood Tiger.
Before the Absolute Protection ended the Fire-wood Tiger got badly injured, but Yale wasn’t aware of that since he felt enlightened, Yale sensed the attack hit him, but it didn’t hurt and didn’t harm him.
Yale wasn’t able to completely understand the Legacy Skill, and he only was a bit enlightened as he experienced the power of the Time law. However, for a kid like him, that bit of enlightenment was something heaven’s defying.

When the Absolute Protection effect faded, a notification sounded in Yale’s mind.
“After obtaining a bit of enlightenment regarding the Time, the user’s body generated [Time Elemental Affinity: Lowest grade].”
That wasn’t a reward from the system, Yale himself obtained the affinity from his enlightenment.
Of course, without being able to execute such a powerful time-based technique like Absolute Protection experiencing by himself the power of the Time Law such enlightenment wasn’t possible.
However, even in that situation gaining a bit of enlightenment would be a joyous matter even for experts as time was one of the most mysterious laws in the world.
Yale was shocked, but he still attacked the Fire-wood Tiger without stopping to think anymore, Yale only had one chance to use Absolute Protection, now that the Fire-wood Tiger was badly injured the best course of action was to finish it quickly.
The Fire-wood Tiger quickly descended into a disadvantageous position, Yale turned the tables when he used Absolute Protection, and left the Wood-tiger without means to gain the upper-hand again.
Since using Absolute Protection, Yale always stood near the little wolf as he feared that the Fire-wood Tiger would attack it again. Yale couldn’t use Absolute Protection again; he could only trust that the Fire-wood Tiger wouldn’t attack him based on its previous results.
Yale prediction was correct as the Fire-wood Tiger avoid attacking the little wolf while Yale stood near it, the Fire-wood Tiger would die if it was attacked like before by the Forest Wolf and as long it had a chance to survive, it wouldn’t seek death.
However, the Fire-wood Tiger reached a point in which it felt without a chance to survive and chose the desperate method of igniting itself in flames almost killing itself.
The Fire-wood Tiger hoped to kill his opponents and then slowly recuperate afterward, so he chose a method that would leave it half-dead as its last bet.
Yale could evade such an attack, but if he did so, the wolf cub would die for sure. Yale decided to remain still and resist the attack; he didn’t want to flee like that cowardly black wolf.
Yale shuddered when he sensed the power of the incoming attack, he didn’t know if he would survive, but he remained motionless.
When the attack finally reached Yale, it was much less powerful than Yale expected.
It wasn’t that the attack wasn’t powerful, the reason was that the Frost Wolf blocked it with its own body.
Yale, the Frost Wolf, and the little wolf were sent flying away, and the only one who remained unharmed was the little wolf cub which was protected by both the Frost Wolf and Yale.
Yale opened his eyes and sighed with relief when he saw the little wolf unharmed, and after that, his Pain Tolerance reached level three directly from level one.
The attack completely burnt Yale’s upper-half body provoking inflicting an indescribable pain to him. Furthermore, his appearance was a hideous one.
Yale’s legs were still in a rather good state because that area was the most well protected by the Frost Wolf as the little wolf was on the floor.
Yale stood up and picked up his sword, it was rather damaged, but it was still usable.
The Fire-wood Tiger was still alive, but it would die from even the weakest attack, Yale approached it with all his efforts and stabbed the sword in its head, killing the 2-star Fire-wood Tiger.
Yale left his sword stabbed in the Fire-wood Tiger as he fell back exhausted, and a notification told him that his Auto-regeneration reached level three.
Yale didn’t fell onto the floor because the injured Frost Wolf stopped his fall with its body, Yale smiled as he lost his consciousness, after the battle he developed some trust to that Frost Wolf and believed that it wouldn’t harm him.

Elania, Arachne in a different world
Does have GL subplot later on. Warning: Since some people do not seem to get the slice of life idea, this story is SLOW. There is action and I intend to write more of it but don't come here expecting it to be the focus 24/7. A young woman from Earth wakes up in a cave, disoriented, confused, amnesic and with her lower body replaced by that of a giant spider. She has no idea what she stumbled into and all the extra sensations were definitely not helping. "Did I get reincarnated into a fantasy world?" She's not quite sure. But, the goblin, the troll and (soon enough) the hot elf all suggest "yes." As much as it creeps her out, her new body is powerful and flexible in some very interesting 'spidery' ways as she slowly learns to live with it. Combined with what modern knowledge she can still remember, the newly christened Elania soon finds herself building a new life as an adventurer among the elves. Who knows what awaits her? Maybe, just maybe, she might even find happiness along the way. There will be a fair amount of errors in writing up until chapter 43 (where I got a proper proofreader/editor to help me out.) Chapters 1-20 or so will at some point receive partial rewriting because I don't quite like the flow and feel there are some parts that don't make as much sense as they should. Please don't suggest edits for chapters up until 43, anything after that, feel free to in case we missed anything. Find me on discord at : https://discord.gg/TqFjdv8uaE
