434 I Want to Die in Battle (1/2)
”Haven't you tried to look for her reincarnated soul to kill her?”
Yale felt that even if the reincarnation was in an unknown place, that woman deserved to be pursued and killed at any cost.
”I have the duty of stand in this place, and even if I want to leave, I can't. I am also using this world as support for restraining the curse. If I leave, I won't survive for too long, so I can't look for her.”
Although the curse wouldn't disappear if that woman was killed and he would end up dying anyway, in his heart, he wanted to erase that woman from the universe.
”I see. If I meet her in the future, I will kill her for you, but it is a bit difficult without knowing where she is.”
The universe was enormous, so it was difficult to look for a single soul. If that weren't the case, Yale would have already managed to find Swordmad's soul.
”Thank you.”
The madman had confidence that Yale would be able to do it, or at very least, with the Battle God's support, the madman believed that it should be easy to deal with that treacherous woman.
”Given your situation, I will help you to fulfill your last wish.”
Yale couldn't help the other party and the time for the other party was limited. Moreover, if he died for the curse it would benefit the enemies of the universe, so Yale agreed to the madman's point of view, it was better to kill the madman before the curse did it.
”Let's go to the moon. It is still inside the effects of the world, so I will be alright as long I don't stay there for too long. I want to die in battle. Although it wouldn't be dying in an honorable battle against our enemies as I dreamed when I was young, at least it would be better than dying for my foolishness.”
In the battle between universes, an Essence God was just a normal pawn because those weaker than the Essence Gods weren't even considered adults yet, so an Essence God wasn't worthy of too much in front of the strongest experts.
He had determined that he would die in that battle at some moment taking with him several enemies, and he felt that would be a good way to repay the kindness that Yale's father showed to him.
However, he ended up provoking disaster, and his only way was to die provoking the less harm to the universe as possible.
Of course, Yale's father didn't like to use his disciples as pawns, so he didn't ask them to go to the frontlines of the war and instead assigned them different duties like the duty of the madman of staying in that world while looking for the solar system where Yale would be reincarnated.
”Then I will battle with you until your whole soul has been destroyed.”
Yale could understand that at least the madman wanted to die in battle instead of just offering his neck. Although it was just a selfish wish, Yale felt that the madman deserved to have it fulfilled.
”You all, wake up this new disciple of mine and look to our battle from here.”
Besides feeling that the madman deserved to die as he wanted, Yale also felt that he needed to do it alone.
The reason was that he had also suffered from a curse and he could empathize with the other party.
Yale had luck enough that his curse wasn't as bad as the madman's one, but Yale could imagine himself in the desperate situation of the madman with death as the only possible outcome and all the choices being related about how to die.
Moreover, that was true death, the death of the soul, so reincarnation would be impossible.
Lina, Shiba, and Eini nodded without saying anything. After all, they could also understand that the matter with the madman was something that Yale wanted to solve personally.
Yale and the madman went to one of the moons and prepared for their battle.
”Yale, try to devour any energy left from my soul, or else... I think that you can understand...”
Yale nodded because although he could destroy most of his opponent's soul, there would always be some energy that would remain and the one who set the curse would absorb it.
Moreover, Yale was immune to the curses on the soul since he became a Timeless Sovereign, so there was no way that the madman could use that as a trap to curse him.
After that, both of them started to battle.
Yale didn't use any sword and instead chose other weapons as that was a good way to practice, and he would feel bad if he killed the other party too quickly.
It wasn't that Yale was looking down on his opponent, but the Essence Slayer Sword was far too powerful, and Yale's swordsmanship was a deadly combination with it.
After all, Yale had trained with the Battle God, so he was very proficient with all weapons even disregarding the usage of Laws and Essences.
