12 Legacy Skill (1/2)

”Absolute Protection: Creates a 5-meter field that lasts for 5 seconds. Nothing can interfere with the inside of the field until it disappears. This Legacy Skill can only be used once per month; it doesn't use the user's energy.”

”This skill is a real Absolute Protection.”

Absolute Protection can protect Yale and everything around him from any damage. Even if it only lasts for five seconds and can only be used once per month, if Yale were again in the same situation as in the Clan's Gathering, at least, he would be able to protect himself and his sister for five seconds.

”Can I improve this Legacy Skill?”

That was something very important; if the area and duration could increase, then it would be awesome.

”The Legacy Skill is a special type of skill that directly use the laws of the world to work; it can only improve if the user gains an understanding of the law the Legacy Skill is using.”

Yale was slightly disappointed, gaining understanding in the laws of the world was something that usually only powerful experts could do. However, having this Legacy Skill implies that his past life understood at least some of that law, then Yale should also be capable of doing it someday.

”What law does it use?”

Laws were very closely related to elements, having a better elemental affinity also makes it easier to understand the law later on.

”Absolute Protection relies on the Time Law.”

Yale was shocked, Space and Time were special elements like healing, but much more difficult to train and even rarer to have elemental affinities in.

This Legacy Skill using the Time Law implied that Yale would have a very difficult time improving it, but at the same time, the system didn't lie in that it was absolute.

A defense that manipulates time was unbreakable unless one had an even better understanding of the Time Law, a Time-type defense didn't block the incoming attacks, the attacks couldn't exist in the time flux inside the protection.

The Absolute Protection became Yale's greatest trump card, a true life-saving skill and one that can also save others.

”Is there any way to get more Legacy Skills?”

Yale wanted to see if he could obtain more life-saving skills.

”The Legacy Skills can only become unlocked by fulfilling hidden requirements. Until fulfilling them, the user wouldn't get any more information.”

Yale expected something like that, yet he still tried to ask.

However, he didn't understand why the system put up those many difficulties when helping him instead of giving him the full legacy from his past life, he only survived by luck last time, but with the Absolute Protection, he could have avoided that heavy injury.

Yale didn't understand his own past life, but he couldn't do anything about that, so he chose to rest as he couldn't train now.

In the following days, the healers and Swordmad fully checked Yale's body, until they permitted Yale to continue his training.

Yale started to train without rest like before, and he realized that with his vitality maxed and the Auto-regeneration skill his stamina was far greater than before.

Yale didn't have to rely on medicinal pills like before as his body's recovery was even better than them.

The effects of Auto-regeneration were more powerful when it came to restoring Yale's stamina compared to its ability to actually heal his wounds, as restoring stamina was far easier than recovering an injured body.

Two months later Yale increased his Agility to eight, and after another month his Strength reached nine points.

However, Yale was unable to increase his Dexterity to nine points until the week before his ninth birthday.

Yale also upgraded his Magical Talent to mid-high grade and got the next Skill Quest in which he needed to upgrade each of the mind stats to ten points.

In those months, Swordmad was very pleased with Yale as he trained even harder than before.

After having a near-death experience at such young age, it wouldn't be strange to negatively affect a child's mind and turn them into cowards.

However, Yale was the opposite as he became even more hard-working than before. Swordmad considered that this kind of mindset was the best one to practice any Path.
