268 Life and Death (1/2)
Yale was expecting that answer from Revgen's because despite being talented with the Life Law since the start, he had never had too much talent in the Death Law.
However, Yale saw how quickly he solved the problem of Ange, and since the solution was removing something that could harm a soul, even though the Life Law was useful, it couldn't compare with the Death Law that focused on souls.
Thus, Yale had the intuition that Revgen had trained the Death Law since the moment he had healed Ange, but it wasn't until Yale heard about the reincarnation method of a Law God of Life and Death that he understood his intentions.
”Don't force yourself too much; you know that the Death Law isn't easy.”
Yale said those words unconsciously, that was exactly what Liye would have said to Revgen in that situation. Liye had said almost the same words when Revgen started to train the Life Law, but Yale didn't remember about it.
The Death Law and the Life Law were among the most difficult laws to learn together with the Space Law and the Time Law, so unless one was talented in such laws, it was too strange focusing on them.
Liye was talented in the four most difficult laws and was considered a super genius even considering the geniuses of other worlds. In fact, although his talent with the sword was also exceptional, it paled against his talents in those four laws.
However, in the end, the sword ended in the highest level due to the huge difference in difficulty it had compared with those other four laws he trained. In fact, Liye had reached such a high level with the sword without focusing too much on it while training the other laws.
Liye used the sword as a medium to create attacks with the laws instead of using them directly because doing that was useful to learn them better.
If Liye hadn't focused in reaching the Law God level with the four most difficult laws, in the time he spent training in those laws, he would have been able to easily reach that level in eight or nine of the other laws despite having less talent for them.
”I know, that is why I waited until I first made a breakthrough with the Life Law to start practicing the other.”
Life and Death were opposite laws, training both at the same time could be beneficial for the overall training speed or turn the training almost impossible. If someone were to balance both laws correctly while training, the speed would be a few times faster than training both independently, but despite Liye managing to do that, he was still slow compared to other laws. However, the speed surpassed the one of the Time Law and the Space Law that were on a similar range of difficulty.
Revgen had known since the start that with his talent in the Death law he would never be able to balance both of them if he trained both at the same time, so Revgen first reached the Law God level in Life and then he started to practice the Death Law. Although he managed to reach the Law Master level in the Death law without too many difficulties, he was stopped at that point since then and was unable to improve.
”Anyway, let's forget your training speed in the Death Law. Even if you provoke a miracle and reach the Law God level in it, you need to forget about reincarnations before we deal with the True Empire.”
Yale understood that even with the special reincarnation of a Law God of Life and Death, Revgen would still need some time to recover and losing his strength when the continent was threatened, was something that Revgen couldn't afford, or there would be no continent to live in after his reincarnation.
”I know. With my talent, I will need a lot of time to reach the Law God level in the Death law. In fact, I never planned to reincarnate before you had recovered all your powers, only then will I be at ease. I am training Nurvey to be able to take my position in the time I will be weak, although if she likes it, I don't mind letting her hold the position for more time. I know that you hate that kind of bindings like managing an empire, so I can just join you and act only in the important moments.”
Liye might have been considered the ruler of the continent, but he didn't meddle with the affairs of the continent unless they were truly important.
Of course, the same applied to Yale; he didn't have any ambition to manage the empire. Yale had enough with the status as ruler of the continent because with it he could act as he wanted without being restricted but avoiding management duties.
Even Revgen, despite being the emperor wasn't active in managing the Empire, but he still had more work than Yale.
”Alright, we should stop speaking. I will break the time stopped area and bring out Ange over from this dimension. We are making Nurvey wait alone outside.”
Yale was a bit tired of speaking, he had learned a lot from Revgen, but so much information at once was difficult to assimilate in a short span of time, and Revgen probably would have continued speaking if Yale didn't stop him.
When the time stopped area disappeared, a notification appeared in Yale's head as he had finished that sub-quest without reward. Of course, Yale didn't mind about not obtaining any reward because that sub-quest objective was to save Ange, knowing that she was already safe was enough reward for Yale.
Yale was already at the peak of the Practitioner Rank, and the system was the only reason for him being unable to advance, but completing the previous quest seemed insufficient to break that barrier.
