Last Wish System-Chapter 552: Tenir's Highly Unstable Passageway
"Are you ready?"
Yale asked while looking to the two cubs that had returned to their beast form.
"Yes!"
Both replied at the same time.
"Very well. You will be on my shoulders, don't fall. Remember that the outside world is dangerous. With your power, death is just the best outcome if you aren't with me."
Since almost everyone was an immortal, a pair of cubs that weren't immortals could just die as a side effect of a battle that wasn't related to them.
Yale also asked them if they wanted to wait in the Storage Space, but they didn't want to be left alone there.
"Why not on your head?"
Jika asked since that had been her initial intention, but Yale didn't give her a chance.
"Because that is Wyba's place. No one else is allowed there."
Jika had prepared several replies in case that Yale said that both didn't fit there or that it would be unfair letting one there while the other couldn't, but she didn't expect Yale's reason.
"But..."
Jika tried to reply, but she didn't know what to say.
"Enough. There is no room for discussion. On my shoulders or in the Storage Space."
After Yale gave his ultimatum, Jika obediently jumped to Yale's shoulder.
Several minutes later, Yale and the two cubs were in the main plaza surrounded by all the members of the tribe. Usually, Jika and Dan weren't allowed there, but since they were leaving, the tribe made an exception.
"Farewell. Remember to take care of my sister."
Only Yale and Mojo understood Awat's meaning, but both ignored him.
"I hope that meeting Tenir will help you. Visit us again if Lar mature completely or another of your weapons awake a spirit."
The Weapon Spirit Tribe was considered the hometown of all weapon spirits, so they were all welcome. Moreover, since Lar had been awakened there, everyone considered her like a child of the tribe.
"Sure. Farewell, everyone."
Yale waved his hand and was about to jump into the portal.
"Remember that the portal is highly unstable. There is no problem for you, but don't let Lar or the cubs go away from you."
Those last words before Yale entered into the portal were only heard by Yale himself since the chief sent them to his mind.
He had already been adverted about that point, so he ensured that Lar in her sword form and the two cubs were unable to go away by casting a barrier around himself.
Any portal that was towards Tenir's place was highly unstable because Tenir did it on purpose. Anyone who couldn't cross safely wasn't worthy of his time, and he had been tired of having his enemies sending small fries again and again to test him.
The strong ones were too coward to battle in Tenir's territory since everything would be favorable to Tenir.
Although the passageway behind the portal was highly unstable, Yale's control of space and time were more than enough to ensure that his travel was safe as long as he was conscious.
If he wanted to remain safe there even unconscious, he guessed that he would need to reach the bottleneck with time and also reach the Minor Space Divinity.
The passageway was filled with traps that would disintegrate anyone who wasn't careful enough or powerful enough. Against instant complete disintegration of body and soul, not even Yale would be able to survive.
Those traps showed how powerful Tenir was. Even if it was impossible for him to set those traps in a real battle, just being able to set them was already a great feat.
Of course, with Yale's control of time and space, the traps couldn't affect him, but he knew that there weren't too many people that were at the same level as him on space and time.
The passageway was long, but since it only served to go to Tenir's place, it was empty, or at least, it should have been empty.
After traveling for some time, Yale saw a person in front of him as if that person had been waiting for someone to go for that passageway.
"Finally, some comes. An inferior human with two filthy beasts and a monster sword... Inferior human, become my slave, and swear loyalty to our Sacred Empire, and I will forgive your life. However, first, you need to kill those cubs and erase that sword's consciousness. I am already magnanimous for not killing you despite your connection with that winged aberration."
Before Yale could say a word, the other party spoke with a lofty tone.
At that moment, everyone on Yale's side could see that the person that had spoken was an ugly man.
Yale didn't care if the other party consider him an inferior human because he didn't mind how others thought about him. However, he couldn't ignore how that man called the two cubs and Lar.
That ugly man was a ninth level immortal, but Yale could see that he was far weaker than Awat and probably had advanced to that level not too long ago, so Yale felt that it wouldn't be a problem beating him.
However, that was in the outside world. Inside the passageway, Yale didn't dare to battle for fear that the instability would grow more and reach a point that his barrier couldn't resist.
"Come on. Quickly. I already spoke a lot to an inferior human in the presence of aberrations that shouldn't exist. I will count to ten. If you don't follow my orders, I will kill you all."
As Yale thought, that man had only advanced recently and wanted to obtain some merits for the Sacred Empire, so he went to the passageway hoping to kidnap someone related to Tenir.
That person would serve as a hostage to force Tenir to leave, and once he was on the outside world, the Sacred Empire wouldn't need to fear the traps.
"No need to count. I will never follow your orders."
As Yale spoke, he jumped into a nearby trap, which was unable to affect him thanks to the barrier.
"Slow. Too slow. You are also stupid, but what can be expected from an inferior human. Now die!"
The ugly man rushed to attack Yale, but once he was near to hit Yale, he died.
Both body and soul disintegrated completely without letting any trace of that ugly man.
"You are the only stupid here. Without any control of time and space, you tried to battle in this passageway. What a stupid idea."
Just as Yale planned, the ugly man killed himself when he tried to attack Yale.
"I need to admit that those traps are very useful. Maybe I can ask Tenir to teach me how to set them up."
While Yale was praising Tenir's traps, Jika and Dan were happy to see how their father killed that ugly man without needing to attack.
They had been both offended by how the ugly man called them, but they didn't dare to say anything since Yale warned them about how dangerous the outside world was.
Lar was also delighted by the outcome because she had the impulse to fly to that man and stab him to death, but Yale had restrained her before entering the passage so she couldn't move.
"Let's continue. After visiting Tenir, it seems that I need to visit that so-called Sacred Kingdom. That man's words seemed to be due to something cultural more than personal."
Yale might be strict when training with Lar, Jika, and Dan, but he would never let that something bad happened to them if he could prevent it.
Moreover, the words of that man would also target Wyba, Ange, and other family and friends that could ascend, so he needed to check that country and stop them if they were a real threat.
Of course, Yale didn't know that if it hadn't been for Tofesh, Wyba would have already been killed by the Sacred Kingdom, together with all the citizens of Yale's Kingdom.
The Sacred Kingdom wasn't just a potential threat, it was a real threat that was making plans to eradicate the country that Wyba created with Wyba included.
However, there was no way for Yale to obtain that information at that moment.
Anyway, the ten strongest of that country were really strong. Although no one was sure of their true power, the general guess was that the weakest of them wasn't too much weaker than Awat, the Weapon Demon.
The reason was that the Weapon Demon once battle to a tie with the third strongest of the Sacred Kingdom, and the ten strongest had similar powers except for the first one, who was as strong as Mojo.
Mojo and the old man who gave the orders to the Sacred Kingdom faced each other when both intervened Awat's battle.
The Weapon Spirit Tribe was known as neutral, but they hated the Sacred Kingdom for their discrimination.
However, the Sacred Kingdom couldn't reach the Weapon Spirit Tribe, and the Weapon Spirit Tribe couldn't win a war against the Sacred Kingdom, so nothing happened after that clash that was just considered a legend and most people just know that someone of the Sacred Kingdom battled against the Weapon Demon far in the past.
Of course, Awat and Mojo improved a lot since that battle, and there were several ninth level immortals on the Weapon Spirit Tribe, but it was unknown how much those of the Sacred Empire improved, so there wasn't any movement against them.
