424 Reuniting (2/2)
”Good to see you again. Sorry for interrupting you before. Oh right, since we are here this is a good chance. Lina, let my friends leave your world now, Julie included.”
Lina nodded and did as Yale instructed while Yale also made Wyba and the others appear outside the Storage Space.
”What happened to Julie?”
Seeing that Julie appeared lying down on a bed they were shocked, but since everyone reunited together after more than ten years, they had a lot to spoke, and those who were isolated with Shiba and Eni learned about what happened.
George, Zack, and Sammie also noticed about what happened after everyone appeared, so they joined them. Sammie couldn't remember the others since she was too young when the war happened, so they needed to introduce themselves again.
”George, I can heal your arm now. If you want, you don't need to continue using that golem arm anymore.”
Being a Life Essence God, there was no way that Yale couldn't heal George's arm, so he felt that was a good chance to heal him.
”No need. Sister Eni is a Law God in the Life Law and already offered to heal my arm, but I am ready used to my golem arm, and after Master, I mean Brother Shiba taught me a bit, I improved the golem arm a lot, so I doesn't feel worse than a real one.”
Shiba and Eni had forced George and Zack to call them Brother Shiba and Sister Eni. Originally, they wanted to acknowledge them as masters due to how much they taught them, but they refused because they were Yale's friends and would be improper taking them as disciples without asking Yale first.
Sebe, Serka, and Kermu didn't have any problem in calling Shiba and Eni like that from the start.
”Yale, why did you bring Julie outside? She isn't in a good state to be here.”
The one who said that was Aizu, who was feeling sick after seeing how Yale and Lina interacted with each other, so she decided to gather her courage and speak to Yale.
”It is the opposite. This is the best for her with all her friends gathered together. If I am not wrong, she must wake up soon.”
Just as Yale finished his words, Julie slowly opened her eyes. She was still confused, but she had already recovered her consciousness.
Since she had mainly a psychological problem, Yale felt that having her being together with her friends was the best option to help her even though it wasn't something that was ensured to work. She improved quite a bit while being in Lina's world, and Yale noticed that she was about to awake when Aizu spoke to him.
Everyone cheered when Julie woke up despite Julie herself being unable to understand well her situation.
Two hours later, Julie finally was able to process everything that had happened.
It was at that moment that Yale asked for everyone's attention.
”We are finally reunited here, but there is someone who sacrificed his life for making this possible.”
Everyone fell into silence after hearing those words.
”Swordmad didn't doubt to sacrifice himself for us, so we should at least pay respects for his sacrifice.”
Yale took out a normal chunk of iron and in an instant he crafter a sword that was identical to Swordmad's sword. After all, Swordmad's sword wasn't any special sword, so it wasn't hard to replicate given Yale's current proficiency in blacksmithing.
Yale stabbed the sword in the ground before speaking.
”Swordmad, when I lost my memories and was in my most vulnerable state, you taught me and protected me as my master. Even at your end, you sacrificed yourself to help me. You are a man who earned my respect. I promise that I will find your soul even if I need to travel through the whole universe... No, I will do it even if I need to go to another universe.”
After Yale's speech, everyone offered a minute of silence for Swordmad.
Most of them had met him and knew that he was quite a selfless person who cared more for Yale than for himself, so they respected him a lot.
In fact, although they didn't know, if it hadn't been for Swordmad, most of them would have died because Yale wouldn't have had the chance to change the past to save them.
”I won't disappoint you.”
Yale gave his back to the sword after creating a barrier that was a strong as the one separating the continents and walked toward the others.
