Chapter 78: Desperate Decision
Tofesh disappeared after that and Yale’s mind returned to his body and took the sword from the altar wielding it.
The barrier surrounding the altar disappeared when the sword was removed as the sword was the true core of the barrier.
Yale didn’t wait for the shocked expressions of the others faded, he rushed towards Heruk and attacked with his recently acquired sword.
Heruk managed to evade Yale’s attack, but he wasn’t able to avoid having severe injuries like before. After all, Yale’s sword was the best weapon created the founder of the Tofesh Clan who had a reputation that even reached other worlds.
Even if the sword didn’t manage to hit Heruk directly, he couldn’t avoid being injured. A mere 3-star mortal realm wasn’t able to fight against that kind of sword.
Even if Yale had never wielded a sword before, using such powerful weapon he would still be able to beat Heruk. However, Yale didn’t only wield that sword; he was also at the expert stage in swordsmanship, so he turned into a fearsome existence.
Of course, that could only apply inside the special realm because the sword needed the power of the laws of time and space to be used in full power and Yale was only able to control them inside the special realm due to their density. Yale didn’t have affinity nor experience with the space element, but wielding the sword, he was able to barely use it, even if he relied mainly on the time law.
If anyone could use freely such powerful weapons, all the kids in the noble clans would have a top-rank weapon with them. Even if the actual top-rank weapons from the Tofesh Clan couldn’t compare to the best piece its founder made in his life, those weapons would be enough to boost the kids’ power a lot.
However, such weapons wouldn’t be correctly used by the kids and could become more burden than a help.
Furthermore, the best weapons had the right to choose their owners, the chances of a normal noble kid being selected by a weapon were scarce.
When Yale had crossed the barrier and wielded the altar’s sword, everyone thought that the sword had chosen Yale.
They didn’t know that Yale’s past life took part in the creation of the sword and that since the moment the sword was forged, the only one capable of use it was Yale’s soul. Anyone without Yale’s soul would be unable to use the sword; it wouldn’t cause only the loss of all the power the sword had, it would also become incredibly heavy.
Soul-bounded weapons could only be used by those who bound it in the moment of their creation. Of course, as long it was the same soul even after reincarnation the weapon would remember its owner and if the owner’s soul dissipated the weapon wouldn’t have another master in all the eternity.
The crafter of the sword would be the only one aside from the owner capable of carrying the sword without suffering the rebound, that was the main reason Tofesh was the best person to take care of the sword. However, even for the one who created it, wielding such weapon would be impossible.
Tofesh had thought of killing himself with it even if he hadn’t had enough resolution in the end, but he didn’t need to wield the sword for that purpose; the weapon was mighty enough to kill someone even if no one was wielding it.
Evidently, that was only under the premise that the one who would be killed stabbed himself without opposing resistance.
After Yale’s previous attack, Heruk was utterly scared of him.
Before, Yale was already capable of threatening his life, but after obtaining the altar’s sword, Yale seemed a death god in Heruk’s eyes.
At that moment, Heruk made a desperate decision; he decided to advance to the 4-star mortal realm even if that was forbidden inside the special realm.
He had been at the peak of both paths for a long time, but he wanted to focus more on all his skills before advancing to reach the realm’s perfection. However, in the face of sure death, he chose to advance his realm disregarding anything else.
Just as Heruk advanced towards the 4-star mortal, the special realm started to tremble. It had already lost its core when Yale obtained the altar’s sword, and after Heruk broke its laws, the special realm chose the roughest method of punishment, the special realm’s self-destruction killing everyone who was inside.
The realm’s real objective was to pass the altar’s sword to Yale; all the other things in the realm were only a cover to fool any third party.
As the primary objective had been accomplished and an unwanted intruder dared to broke the laws of the realm, there were no more reasons for the special realm’s existence and self-destructing was the best method to ensure the intruders died.
Because Yale was wielding the special realm’s core; he was able to sense that the self-destruction had started.
“System, is there a way to stop the realm’s self-destruction? Maybe by killing Heruk?”
His past life created the system, and his past life had a relationship with both the sword and the special realm. As he was already sure of that, he also believed that the system should have a solution to the current problem.
“As the owner of the realm’s core, the user won’t be affected by the self-destruction, but there isn’t any way to stop it until all the people the realm considered intruders were exterminated. Killing the one who has broken the laws, will only slow the process of self-destructing.”
Yale didn’t like that reply, he already felt that with the sword the realm stopped having any danger to him, but he wanted a method to save his friends.
“Die!”
Heruk attacked Yale madly; he thought that after advancing his power would be more than enough to deal with Yale with a sneak attack.
Yale sighed and swung his sword four times cutting Heruk’s four limbs in a second, that increase in rank didn’t mean anything to the vast difference in power they had after Yale recovered his past life’s sword.
Heruk fell to the ground powerless crying due to the pain. His attempts to sneak attacking Yale to kill him had only resulted in his own defeat losing all his limbs.
“You are the most despicable person I meet in my life. You can sacrifice your teammates without thinking, enjoying torturing your opponents and scheming to kill those you dislike instead of battling with your own power. Now you have provoked the realm’s self-destruction due to being unable to respect this place laws. Your chances of surviving are zero even if I don’t kill you and everyone would be glad to kill you before the realm did the work.”
Yale’s voice was infused with a cold murdering intent. Furthermore, it was true that even Heruk’s teammates wanted to kill him due to the disaster he provoked, no one felt pity when Yale cut all of his limbs.
“That’s good! I will die, but you all will die with me! So what if I die a little before you all? Less suffering to me!”
Heruk started to laugh like a madman; he really didn’t mind about anyone who wasn’t himself, even dying he still felt that his death would be better than the others death.
“You won’t simply die, your soul will be cursed for all the eternity. It would be a suffering without end until your soul dissipated forever.”
As Yale said those words, he cut Heruk’s head, without waiting for the latter’s reply.
Yale didn’t like torturing his opponents personally, enjoying others suffering wasn’t part of his personality. Knowing the fate that Heruk’s soul would have was enough revenge for him, that was the worst fate possible, Heruk wouldn’t rest in peace until his existence was entirely erased.
Furthermore, as killing Heruk would slow down the realm’s self-destruction he didn’t want to lose more time.
Yale could feel that the sword cursed Heruk even if he wasn’t able to see anything, he only knew that the sword should also have some relation with life and death due to its capabilities, but as those laws weren’t denser than in the outside world, Yale wasn’t able to sense them.
Even if his past life had the idea of creating such sword, Yale’s understanding of it was still too low; he didn’t even know the sword’s name.
Everyone saw how Yale killed Heruk as easy as killing a chicken; his allies were shocked but happy. However, those who chose to be his enemies were scared, but as they heard that the realm was self-destructing and the rumbles only increased, they had lost their hopes, they regretted letting a bastard like Heruk join their group because, in the end, he doomed all of them.
After killing Heruk, Yale continued trying to obtain a method to solve the situation asking the system. Yale’s life wasn’t at risk, but his friends would die if he didn’t find a way to save them.If you find any errors ( broken links, non-standard content, etc.. ), Please let us know < report chapter > so we can fix it as soon as possible.
