Last Wish System-Chapter 555: Yale's Newest and Most Powerful Skill
The skies were still dark when Yale appeared outside.
There were still several hours until the morning, but Yale didn't know if the Sacred Kingdom would attack at night or wait until daylight.
Although it was a better strategy attack when most people were resting, Tenir had told him that the Sacred Kingdom liked to see the fear in those they kill, so it was possible that they waited until the morning to see the expression of the people in the city before they disappeared.
However, Yale didn't want to bet that the Sacred Kingdom would act like that, so he rushed to Yale's Kingdom at his best speed.
Yale had never been there, so he wasn't able to teleport directly, which provoked that even with his control of space, he still needed several hours to reach the place.
It might have been different if Yale was as proficient controlling the space as Tofesh, but that wasn't a breakthrough that could be attained training in seclusion.
The portal was the closest one to Yale's Kingdom, but even the closest was far enough to make that when Yale saw Yale's Kingdom, the sun was already starting to rise.
The city was surrounded by the Sacred Empire's army, but they were maintaining some distance from it, like if they feared to step on.
Seeing the scene from some distance, Yale looked upwards and saw that high on the sky, a colossal bomb was starting to fall to the city.
"Good and last morning, filthy beasts. Now disappear forever!"
A man in the army, who seemed to have an important position, exclaimed when the bomb started to fall.
Although the bomb had been controlled to fly the highest possible, the fall would just be a matter of seconds, and they ensured that no one could flee from the city.
Yale knew that there was no way he could reach the city and find Wyba before the bomb did it due to the barrier cast by the Sacred Kingdom army, so he flew directly towards the bomb.
"What is that fool doing?"
The man commanding the army saw a person flying towards the bomb and wondered if someone was trying to die without reason.
Of course, they didn't believe that the person doing it would be immune to the Existence Eraser Bomb.
Yale stored Lar on the Storage Space before punting the bomb and forcing it to explode.
The range of the explosion was enough to cover the whole city, but it was high enough on the sky to prevent that the city was affected.
After the explosion, Yale was fine, but he was unable to move. The quantity of Existence Eraser was so big that it made him unable to move for some minutes, but that was all.
"Liye, did you stop it yourself? I didn't know that you were immune to it."
After the explosion ended, Tofesh appeared there. He teleported there as fast as he could when he noticed that something strange was happening on Yale's Kingdom.
Tofesh and Yale hadn't met for a lot of time, but that wasn't time to speak about the old times.
Yale couldn't speak nor send a divine sense message, so he was unable to tell Tofesh to look back.
The army was already in the city, but until the first shouts, Tofesh didn't notice it since he had been too focused on Yale's state after receiving the full impact of the bomb.
The army had an arsenal of Existence Eraser weapons that made the one used by the Supreme Garbage look like a toy.
After obtaining the support of the Goddess, they didn't just focus on crafting the Existence Eraser Bomb, they also developed a lot of weapons for their troops.
The beast girls were disappearing without stop, but since the weapons could only affect living beings, the city wasn't being destructed.
However, that also let that the attacks crossed walls and erased people in their houses.
Once the army saw someone interfering with the bomb and confirmed that the city wouldn't be affected by the explosion, they rushed to the city and started their attack.
Tofesh turned back and went to the city, but he fell to the ground once he crossed the boundary due to a barrier restricting flight. Usually, he would have noticed it, but he was too worried about the people in the city to think about it.
"Oh, the famous inferior human, the so-called Blacksmith Prince. Disappear!"
A soldier saw Tofesh fall and triggered his Existence Eraser Weapon with a huge smile on his face. He was sure that he would receive bountiful rewards for erasing the Blacksmith Prince. Of course, no one would remember the Blacksmith Prince, so he wouldn't be rewarded for it, but he wasn't too smart.
Tofesh had just fallen to the ground and was unable to avoid the attack at such short distance, so he prepared for the worst.
However, the attack never reached him because someone received it on his behalf, someone he knew.
"Clair, why?"
The chief of the royal guard serving Wyba was the one who sacrificed herself when she saw Tofesh in danger. She was near there by coincidence, and her body moved before she could think.
There wasn't any reply because Clair disappeared, but the next second the man who erased her was smashed to death by Tofesh's hammer.
"Sacred Kingdom, huh? I guess that you are doomed to die."
Tofesh was extremely angry at that moment that he swallowed his pride.
"Announce it to the world. The Sacred Kingdom is my enemy. For any member of the sacred kingdom killed, I will give ten seventh level immortal weapons. For each eighth level, immortal killed, I will add to that an eighth level immortal weapon, and for each ninth level immortal a ninth level immortal weapon. For those who kill one of the strongest, I also promise one of my masterpieces."
The communication to the outside was cut, but Tofesh had an emergency contact method that couldn't be blocked by a mere barrier.
Tofesh started to retreat after sending a message. He wanted to kill them all, but he knew that if he were erased, the plan to eradicate the Sacred Kingdom would fail since no one would be mobilized.
While Tofesh opened his path, killing any member of the Sacred Kingdom in his way, the beast girls were also trying to flee.
Those that had wings started to fly, but they were being shot down by the army.
Wyba was also trying to flee, and she was avoiding all the Existence Erasers, but she stopped for a moment when Clair was hit.
Clair was the member of the country closest to Wyba, so she couldn't avoid stopping to look at her disappear when she noticed it.
However, an instant later, she was also hit.
"Big brother, I am sorry."
Wyba saw that Yale appeared and blocked the bomb, so she muttered those words at the end, which Yale understood by reading her lips.
However, Yale was strangely calm. Although he couldn't move and saw that scene, he didn't look angry or sad.
A minute later, Yale recovered the capacity to move and just sighed.
"As expected, this has been a failure. Fortunately, I am not the same as before."
Yale closed his eyes for an instant before opening them again and started to speak.
"Sacred Kingdom! You don't know who you have offended today! You will never taste victory because victory will never exist for you. You aren't allowed to win in any timeline. Your fate in any possible timeline is disappearing forever. This is my curse for you all, although you won't be able to remember it."
Yale wasn't cursing them literally, but he knew that the effects wouldn't be much different in the end because he was ready to use his newest skill, which was also the most powerful one he had.
Without that skill, he wouldn't have dared to take the bet given the high chances of failure.
"Time Leap."
Only two words went out from Yale's mouth, but the world stopped, or more exactly, ceased to exist.
Yale was at the same point where he appeared after leaving the passageway from Tenir's castle, and it was still night.
The time he had just experienced had been undone, it had never existed. Thus, those erased by the army had never been erased.
That was the skill that Yale developed after studying the curses. Strictly speaking, he wasn't powerful enough to use it, but he managed to decrypt part of the curse he had and use its power at will to supply the difference.
He could only leap a week at most, but he could control the moment perfectly as long as it was within that week. He wasn't being forced back in time by a curse, he was moving through time at will and without negative repercussions, which until that moment was something that only Great God Kroh did.
Of course, Great God Kroh wasn't limited to just moving its mind through time, nor had a limit of a week.
Alrein and Tenir managed to decipher the rules of the curses so they could force them to activate, but they couldn't control them at will nor set the destination place since it was decided by the curse. They could sue experience to make a guess, but it was definitely something inferior to what Yale developed.
At that moment, Great God Kroh was laughing without stopping due to the happiness it was feeling.
