454 Happiness from Breakthoughs (2/2)

After all, the increases in the power of someone who practiced the Magus Path, and those who practiced it together with the Warrior Path was very different, and the effort needed to increase one Tier was also very different.

The difference between training those two Paths or the Fake Origin Path wasn't that big, but there were still some differences in efficiency when training and in the power wielded at the same Tier.

”Terug, you seem to be very happy today.”

Yale was unable to sense the exact level of power of a World God, but he could guess by Terug's face that he advances quite a bit.

”I reached Tier 8 after so much time. How can't I be happy?”

Terug wanted to celebrate his breakthrough, but he didn't have any friends until Yale gave him that axe, so he could only find Yale to celebrate his breakthrough.

Of course, Terug's subordinates would have been happy to celebrate with him, but friends and subordinates weren't the same.

Of course, Terug wouldn't admit that he didn't have any other friends in front of Yale because it would make him seem too pitiful.

”We also made quite a few breakthroughs on our crafting, so we are also in a good mood. Let's celebrate it.”

Terug didn't think that the breakthroughs in crafting could have been too huge in about three months, but even a small breakthrough was worthy of celebrating when one reach those levels.

”Of course! I already ordered my chefs to prepare a banquet. Don't worry there will be dishes to your sisters too. By the way, can you show me what you crafted? I am quite experienced and can give you my impression of it.”

Although Terug hadn't trained in any crafting-related Essence, he had subordinates with expertise in all the areas, and he learned how to distinguish the quality of their works with great precision.

Of course, it couldn't be compared with Yale's Divine Eyes that could obtain perfect accuracy when appraising something, but since Terug spoke out of goodwill, Yale showed a potion he made when he advanced to Essence God in alchemy.

”This is what I made for my breakthrough in Alchemy to Essence God.”

Terug checked the potion and smelled it before nodding.

”You are really talented in Alchemy. It can't be said to be at the pinnacle of the Essence God level, but at least is still far above average. To craft something like this for your breakthrough, I admire you.”

Usually, when advancing to Essence God it was typical to create something that barely reached the mark an after that there would be time to improve more, but there were a few talented individuals that skipped that and went to produce good stuff from the start.

However, those who did that had all great innate talents, and Yale didn't have any innate talent in Alchemy, but Yale wasn't planning to tell that to Terug.

”I still need to improve a lot. Right, since you checked my crafting, I also want to check your increase of strength. Let's spar. I will cast a barrier to nullify the effects of the battle, so don't restrain yourself.”

Yale wanted to test his strength, and Terug just happened to be a good point of reference.

After all, Yale already knew very well Lina and Shiba, and battle against them wasn't the same as battling against someone he hadn't battled before.

Terug was a bit shocked, but since Yale said that he would cast a barrier, he nodded to Yale's suggestion.

Battling against stronger opponents was good to temple one's mind, so Terug thought that Yale was planning to use the pressure on that battle to do it.

After all, in Terug's opinion, it was for the weakness of mind or soul that Yale hadn't advanced to World God, so he was willing to assist him in fixing that flaw.

Yale only wanted to know how he would perform in front of a World God in battle. He didn't need to temple his mind because if it wasn't for creating a new Path, he could have advanced without problems.

Yale's mental strength was extraordinary due to his experiences in his lives and the Timeless Border, and his soul had been nourished nonstop by the pure energy, so he didn't think that he would face any problem due to the weakness of mind or soul.

”Let's spar right now while the chefs prepare the food. If you have checked the house, you should know that there is a training ground here.”

Yale nodded, and Lina sighed while being a bit depressed because she also wanted to battle against Terug to test her strength, but Yale had been faster in asking for it.
