458 Problems of Mind and Soul (1/2)

”Terug are you the one who helped them to train their souls and minds?”

Yale could barely notice some changes from the last time he saw them thanks to the divine eyes, so he guessed that they had undergone some kind of training.

”Yes. If they follow this training, I think that in about a million years they would be able to become World Gods given how talented they are. As for your sisters, I think that except Ange, the other two should be able to become Law Gods in about a thousand years.”

Terug noticed Ange's problems, but he didn't feel that was okay speaking of that in public.

Yale just sighed after hearing that. The time for Wyba and Aiwai with that method wasn't that bad and showed how effective the method was, but the times for the others to become World Gods was far too long.

Usually, needing only a million years to become a World God giving their ages would be already something to celebrate, but Yale didn't think that they could waste a million years just for that.

Of their group, only Yale and Lina could advance without worries, but the rest needed to follow harsh training before being able to advance successfully.

Yale and Lina were both far under the mark to advance in terms of age, but their experiences were vast, and the age wasn't a problem at all.

”A million years is too much. I can't wait for that much time. I have a method to hasten the progress, but the chances of failure are high. Lina and I faced that method in the past and completed it successfully. I bet that you already guessed about what I am speaking.”

After hearing Yale's words, Shiba was the first to reply.

”The Life and Death Trials.”

Yale nodded. After Lina and Yale, Shiba was the one nearer to advance, and his progress given his age was admirable, but it wasn't enough.

”You are right. That is undoubtedly the fastest method, but how effective it will be to you will depend on your performance there. I understand that you all want to turn stronger, so I will allow you to face the Life and Death Trials if you want, but don't do it if you aren't confident on your results.”

Yale felt that it would be good for his group to turn stronger, but he would rather battle alone than force them to increase their strength just to help him.

”I will face them.”

As Yale expected, Shiba replied. Shiba was the one with the highest chances of succeeding as he was already quite strong-willed.

”I...”

Aiwai opened her mouth, but she didn't continue.

”You are hesitating, so you can't do it. That hesitation can be lethal in the trial. In my opinion, you and Wyba aren't suited to do the Life and Death Trials right now. Terug's method should be enough for you two to become Law Gods quite quickly.”

Wyba was happy of not being forced to do a training that seemed even more troublesome than usual, and Aiwai could just accept Yale's words.

Terug gathered a lot of knowledge. As long as it wasn't something that only Origin Gods knew, it would be difficult that Terug hadn't gathered information about it, and that included methods to train the mind and the soul.

Of course, Lina's father also had such methods, and even slightly better ones, but his daughters hadn't needed them before. After all, usually the problem was that one hadn't been able to learn the Essences properly rather than having a weak soul and mind when one tried to advance being young.

The current situation only happened because the pure energy had hastened their advancements too much. Under normal situations, Shiba and Eini would have needed far more time to reach that level, and they shouldn't be facing those problems.

Even if they faced some problems, they would be something easy to solve like in the cases of Wyba and Aiwai.

”I will pass. I advanced too quickly recently, and I think it is better for me to train slowly from now on.”

Eini didn't feel confident in her results on the Life and Death Trials. If she felt like being capable of surpassing them, she would have asked Lina or her father to do them before.

No one opposed to Eini's words, Lina even sighed of relief. After all, she was the one who knew better than anyone else her sister's flaws in mind and soul, and her chances of succeeding were negligible.

”Only Shiba then. Come. I am still your teacher, so I should be the one helping you to do the Life and Death Trials and rescue you in case something goes wrong.”

Ange was naturally discarded to participate in the trials, and she didn't complain about that.

”Yale, you shall be tired since you have just left from your training seclusion. How about if I am the one supervising him? I am not as strong as you, but I have plenty of experiences in supervising the Life and Death Trials.”

Terug had several subordinates over the course of years that wanted to do the Life and Death Trials. The price for it was quite expensive as it was time-consuming even with the difference in the flow of time, but for someone who lived millions of years, he still accepted several times and even cleared the life and Death Trials himself when he was younger by paying a hefty price to a World God.
