《Last Wish System 》Chapter 262: Are you being serious?
Advertisement
Nurvey’s face turned a bit red while seeing that plush with Yale’s shape; she was doing her best to remain calm, but given that Yale was just behind her, it was a bit difficult even for her.
Revgen looked to the plush and then to Yale; he would have never imagined that his granddaughter would buy a plush of his old friend.
“Nurvey, I didn’t expect that you thought in that way about my old friend. He is too old for you. Wait, if I consider his current age after reincarnation you two are a good match. If he is also interested in you, I will approve your relationship.”
Revgen laughed while speaking because he found amusing that his cold granddaughter had developed such feelings for Yale.
Nurvey quickly shook her head; she wanted to explain that she didn’t request the elder to buy that plush, but she was unable to find the correct words quickly to say it. Moreover, she feared that Yale or Revgen would destroy that plush if she said that she didn’t want it.
It was true that such plush wasn’t on her request or she would have never opened it in front of Yale, but she couldn’t say that she didn’t like it. She needed to admit that Wyba looked too cute on Yale’s head.
“Revgen! If it weren’t because now I can’t beat you, I would teach you a good lesson. I already have enough problems with Lar and Aizu, don’t put more problems on myself!”
Yale cursed him in his mind, but he didn’t dare to say it loud. It wasn’t that he hated Nurvey, but Yale didn’t plan to have any romance at that moment, no matter who was the other party, so increasing the girls pursuing him wasn’t something good for him at that moment.
“I didn’t know about that plush.”
Nurvey finally spoke, and Revgen sighed because he already expected something like that. He truly hoped that Yale and Nurvey were together because he thought that they were a good match and couldn’t think of anyone more reliable than Yale for entrusting his granddaughter.
However, since Nurvey said that she didn’t know about that plush, Revgen stopped thinking about that because he wanted Nurvey to choose her loved one, he didn’t plan to choose it for her.
“Then, what do you plan to do with that plush?”

Yale asked that with a warm smile on his face, the same smile that had made that those wolves called him Demon Lord; it looked warm on the outside, but there was a threat hidden behind that smile.
Nurvey hesitated a bit before answering because she wanted to keep that plush but without angering Yale.
“This is the plush of the ruler of the continent. Everyone should have one.”
Revgen’s eyes shined when he heard Nurvey wanting to keep that plush of Yale; he could still see hopes that Nurvey was interested in Yale.
“So, you say that everyone should have one of those because I am the ruler of the continent. I suppose that it is to pay respects to me at any moment, right?”
Nurvey nodded; that was what she wanted to say with her previous words. She thought that as long her reason for keeping it was a righteous one, they would let her conserve that plush.
“Very well. Now, I think that it is a good idea to have a plush version of important people after hearing Nurvey speak about that plush with my shape.”
Nurvey was happy hearing that, but Yale hadn’t finished speaking.
“Revgen, order some skilled people in craftsmanship to make a lot of plush versions of yourself and Nurvey to sell in the whole empire. It is a must that people have a plush of their emperor and princess; they need to pay respects to both of you at any moment, and nothing better than a real scale plush. Am I wrong Nurvey?”
Yale had a bright smile on his face when he said those words.
Revgen and Nurvey were startled by Yale’s words. However, Nurvey couldn’t reject, or her reason for keeping that plush would disappear, and Revgen didn’t want to disappoint her granddaughter by refusing Yale’s order because that would be same that disregarding Nurvey’s words from before.
Yale knew that he couldn’t do anything for the plush versions of him that had been sold by the Thousand Frost Wolves Company, but he decided to drag Revgen and Nurvey with him as retaliation.
In fact, Yale hoped to do the same to Julie and Oscro, but he was sure that an Oscro-shaped plush wouldn’t sell and that if a Julie-shaped plush had chances to sell, Julie would have already made that plush and would be in the catalog of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company. Yale believed that probably it was even already on sale.

“Letting this matter aside. I have something important to speak, so we should leave all trivial matters for later and do to the main topic.”
Nurvey and Revgen nodded. They hoped that Yale would forget about everything related to his real size plush after the conversation and they wouldn’t need to follow his previous order.
The three of them sat, and Yale started to explain the whole situation with the True Empire, including the part of what had happened in the Anpaes Kingdom.
Lashar had already been sent with some elders to explain her version of everything, but Yale’s information was a first-hand one obtained directly from the memories of a lot of members of the True Empire.
“As I expected, those bastards have been acting since a long time ago. I started to have some suspicions after my son died in that mission. He was already at the Sage Rank and had the potential to turn into a Law Master after a few years; it was weird how he died. There is no doubt that the True Empire planned his death to prevent that another Law Master appeared in our family.”
Yale searched on the memories of those members of the True Empire that were stored on the Last Wish System and found some information that matched with the situation of Nurvey’s father.
“Indeed, in the memories of the True Larken Clan’s leader, there is some information about the plan to kill a talented Sage Rank expert from the Imperial family fourteen years ago. There is no doubt they are the culprits, but that traitor wasn’t the one in charge of it, so I haven’t any more information. Even with his status, he didn’t know too much about the most secretive matters.”
Yale could perceive an intense hatred in the eyes of Revgen and Nurvey, but their faces didn’t change. It was clear that they had already guessed that part and Yale had just confirmed it.
Nurvey was also on the list of targets to kill as soon as possible, but she had always been into tight guard with powerful elders at the Sage Rank near her, so the True Empire had no chance to act against her. The only moment she was without protection was in the special realm, but there everyone was restricted in level, so it was difficult to plot against her as they had done against her father.
That shameless group in the special realm tried to kill Nurvey and her group because they knew that killing them would be good for their True Empire. However, they didn’t have that as their objective because they knew that killing all of them would be difficult.
After all, Nurvey was still young, even if she had a lot of potential the True Empire didn’t believe that wouldn’t be a chance before she reached a fearsome level. Moreover, they weren’t planning to wait too much time before starting their plans in a big scale, so Nurvey wasn’t a big threat that should be killed at any cost, trying to do it as long as it was possible was enough.
After that, Yale explained about the matters in Nacesai City and the plan to use those Soul Enslaving Altars to enslave all the people of the Revgen Empire.
“My sister had been put in a Soul Enslaving Altar, but her soul and body were protected, so there wasn’t harm before I saved her. However, the energy that was attacking is still inside her body, and that energy will turn berserk after being separated from the Soul Enslaving Altar. I have her in a space with the time stopped for now, but to remove that danger I need your help, Revgen.”
Nurvey finally understood why Yale seemed to be in such a hurry to speak with Revgen, and she felt ashamed for making them lose time before, although the biggest fault was from Revgen because he suggested it.
Revgen didn’t understand why Yale put so much effort for a sister in his family after reincarnation, but he didn’t feel that saving her was something wrong, so he agreed.
“Follow me, don’t resist.”
At that moment Yale and Revgen disappeared of Nurvey’s bedroom and reappeared in the Storage Space, just in front of the area where Ange was resting with the time stopped.
“Is she your sister?”
Yale nodded when Revgen asked, but he could detect that Revgen had a strange face.
“Are you being serious? Don’t you recognize her?”

Dreamer/Leveler
Zachary Trenner is a freshman at Burlington High School. Despite his mundane appearance and advanced course curriculum, something strange is happening to him. Every time he goes to sleep he switches worlds. Portals are popping up everywhere, allowing access between Earth and the world of Vera. Now he must spend every waking and sleeping moment getting stronger to fight off the [Instance Dungeons] opening on both Vera, and Earth. Prepare for an RPG fiction full of magic, action, a touch of romance, and the author's own dry humor. When the modern technology of Earth meets the medieval magic of Vera, which culture will invade the other world first? When the army rangers of the United States collide with the members of the Hunter's Guild, who will win? Updates on Wednesdays/Thursdays Cover is my own creation. Tips to reading: This is my first book, so cliches and tropes are used as the base and then expanded upon. My intention is to make it a casual read but deep if you decide to look closer. I'm not a people person, so my focus and purpose for writing this is to explore the world building and magic system, not necessarily the characters. There won't be a villian until the postgame ;) Author's philosophy: I took an professional personality inventory (through a community college back in 2018) and was categorized as a "double-checker." I'm never satisfied with the work that I complete, and never want to share it with anyone. But this book is a challenge to myself! As a rule of thumb, I will only add to the story. I can't remove elements I've already included (unless absolutely, absolutely necessary). PS, I'm a native English speaker.

Apollyon's Curse
Within the pages of folklore and fantasy, tales of people who chase after the dream of eternity, of living forever, rarely find a happy ending. They are either struck by the grim truth of reality, give up, and return to mortality or face a ghastly realization of their wishes. The latter often the worse fate, as they come to realize, only far too late, that what they sacrificed was worth far more than the time they gained. Ultimately, the common thread in these stories is that “immortality is as much a curse as it is a blessing”. People either realize it early and give up or are doomed to inevitably face its consequences. In the world Enrich lives in, that saying does hold merit. Every pathway towards eternal life has shackles of its own. They bring those high above down to the ground, evening the playing field. It is thanks to these fundamental laws that ambitious mortals are able to defy the heavens and achieve immortality themselves. The variety of methods result in each of these bindings varying in intensity and degree of freedom. Enrich’s path doesn't break this trend. Though, after what he did to himself, most wouldn’t even consider him a living thing anymore. On the day of his ascension, a world’s worth of souls were melted and recast. On that day, the human’s path had reached its conclusion, recast into Apollyon. An artifact, a weapon, is eternal, after all. As for the curse? The payment will be made, as it must. So why not offload the curse to someone else? Mortals throw their lives away for all manner of petty reasons, noble or otherwise, especially in desperation. Eventually, someone will be willing to foot the bill. Most will if given the chance. The bait is far too tempting, after all. Power, status, knowledge. All at their fingertips. If only they say “yes”. And Apollyon is very willing to help any lost souls. If they give up everything in return, of course.
