Chapter 187: Where Is Big Sis?

“Big bro, Wyba doesn’t feel the tail, and the ears feel weird too.”

Wyba was scared after feeling the changes in her body.

“You are now in a human form, so it is normal that you don’t have a tail and your ears are now human-like instead of wolf-like.”

Wyba didn’t seem to understand it very well, but although she couldn’t see her own ears or her back where the tail was situated before, she could see her hair.

“Wyba’s hair changed!”

Wyba’s hair was originally silvery white, but in her human form it was dark brown like Yale’s hair; that change was enough to make her look extremely different.

The color of her eyes had also changed from blue to dark brown. With those colors on the hair and eyes, she would be considered just a cute human girl and no one would think that there was something strange about her.

Although Yale liked more the Wyba with her original hair and eye color than her new look, he had to admit that for traveling that look was better as would catch less attention.

“Wyba, do you feel anything else wrong?”

Physical changes were one thing, and Yale could see the changes himself, but he was more worried about how Wyba feels internally as the Appraisal had shown too many changes compared to last time he appraised her.

“Wyba feels very weak.”

She had that weakness feeling from the moment she awakened, but she had been more surprised by the changes in her body, so she almost forgot it.

“Try to punch the air a few times.”

Wyba nodded, but when she was to start walking, she fell to the ground and started crying.

“It hurts!”

Yale didn’t expect that situation, even with Wyba’s previous level, just falling to the ground wouldn’t hurt that much. Yale could understand some loss of balance due to not being used to lack a tail, or due to some other difference in the body that could make her feel weird with her body, but he didn’t expect that her defenses were so low, she was even injured due to falling to the ground.

“Big bro, Wyba is unable to use healing.”

Wyba knew Water Healing, but she only had used it on herself in the past when she hurt herself playing or training. Yale would understand if she failed in healing others due to lacking experience, but failing to heal herself was too serious as she already knew how to do it.

“Don’t worry; I will heal you.”

For such scratches Yale needed less than a second to heal her, that type of wound was extremely easy to heal.

“Thank you, big bro.”

Wyba said that with teary eyes, she didn’t like her current state.

When Wyba started to punch the air, Yale didn’t need to focus too much to notice her strength; her strength was just comparable to a normal mortal. Although she was at the peak of power a normal mortal could have, compared with her power in her half-beats form, she was indeed too weak.

“It seems that all your power disappeared.”

Wyba started to cry and ran towards Yale, but she fell again to the floor.

“You shouldn’t try to run until being used to your current body.”

Yale healed her again, he didn’t mind healing her a lot of times, but he didn’t want to see Wyba suffering pain. He hugged Wyba after healing her until she stopped crying after a few minutes.

“What can Wyba do? Wyba doesn’t want to be like this forever.”

After calming down a bit, she thought that her big brother could have some kind of solution.

Yale wasn’t sure of how to answer her, so he decided to try luck with a guess he had.

“Wyba, can you try to transform into your half-beast form?”

Yale remembered that Wyba had two different levels, but the human one was the only one sealed, so he hoped that Wyba could recover her strength if she returned to her half-beast form.

Wyba didn’t even think about that because she couldn’t use Shape Shift in her current state. However, when she thought about to changing to her half-beast form, it worked immediately; she could feel her tail and her ears like she had felt before awakening that day, she could also see that her hair returned to be silvery white.

Wyba liked her hair, although the dark brown color made it seem more similar to Yale’s normal hair, she would rather have Yale change his hair color to be like her than changing her own hair color.

Aiwai was the main reason for Wyba to have such attachment to her hair, Aiwai was always praising it, and Wyba loved to be praised, so she ended up developing a huge attachment to her hair.

“Wyba is feeling very well now!”

Wyba started to run around, but without falling, it was obvious that her previous body was the reason for that lack of balance.

Yale sighed in relief. Although he didn’t plan to make Wyba fight against enemies, if she were defenseless, he would be uneasy in front of a dangerous situation.

After all, if Wyba couldn’t change to her half-beast form, she wouldn’t even be able to fly to escape, and the defenses of a normal mortal would support a hit from someone who dared to attack Yale who was already at the Apprentice Rank.

The return in Wyba’s strength also confirmed to Yale, that the problem was with that sealing in her human form’s level. However, although humans couldn’t train before having ten, that restriction only applied to those born as humans.

Moreover, the description on Appraisal was different than what the system had shown to Yale when he was less than ten, so her restriction wasn’t due to the World Law’s that didn’t let humans train and instead protect them until they were ten.

The most logical option was that the sealing was created by his own past life, the one who called himself Liye in front of Aiwai. After all, a kid like Wyba in human form being at the Apprentice Rank would catch too much attention as that was an impossible feat for humans; problems would come for sure if that were discovered.

“Wyba, listen to me.”

Wyba stopped running and stopped in front of Yale. Although she was excited by the recovery of her strength, she was still obedient to anything her big brother said to her.

“You need to try to get used to that human form even if you feel weak. The area we are now is probably full of humans, and I don’t know how they treat half-beasts. You can choose between your human form or your wolf form, but the half-beast form will be dangerous right now.”

The wolf form can also have problems, but Yale didn’t want to force Wyba to that form either, so after seeing Wyba’s face when he said the first sentence he added the wolf form as an option.

Wyba truly didn’t like any of the two options because although the wolf form was her true body, nobody treated her like Yale’s little sister if she was in that form. The time she liked the most was when both of them were in a half-beast form, and no one doubted about their relationship.

“Maybe if you use Shape Shift to look older you won’t be restrained in your human form. Humans can’t train before turning ten, so probably your weakness is because you are less than ten.”

Wyba tried to change her form to a ten years old girl, and then she changed to her human form, but the seal didn’t disappear.

Yale sighed as he thought that besides the fact that seal was a good camouflage for Wyba’s true form, there was some other reason he couldn’t understand and she would need to truly turn ten before getting rid of that seal.

Wyba returned to her half-beast form disappointed.

“It didn’t work. Should Wyba try to look older than now and try again? Maybe Wyba would look like big sis after growing up? Uh, where is big sis?”

Wyba finally noticed that Aiwai wasn’t with them, she had been so focused on her own problems that she hadn’t thought about her.

“She isn’t here. We won’t be able to see her again before I reach the Practitioner Rank. Thus, I must train hard from now on.”

Wyba returned to her normal size and looked to Yale with confusion; she didn’t understand the situation.

“It is too difficult to explain, but big sis was sent to another place due to a special type of curse she received, and the only method to see her right now is reaching the Rank 3, the Practitioner Rank.”

Yale remembered the conversation about souls, but that part was hard to explain in front of a kid, so he created a simplified version hoping Wyba would have enough with that.
