543 Training, Ascension, Transformation (1/2)
Yale didn't know how much time passed since he entered into the Weapon Spirit Tribe, which was very strange for him given his control over time.
The time had its own flow, separated from the rest of the universe, and it was fully controlled by the chief and Awat, the only two in the tribe who could control space and time.
Thus, Yale had difficulties measuring it. He wasn't worse than them controlling the flow of time, but since they had been in control from the start, he hadn't tried to obtain its control.
However, regardless of how much time he spent, he knew that his progress had been incredible.
The Essence Slayer Sword had been upgraded to eighth level immortal successfully thanks to Awat's guidance, and even Yale made a breakthrough to eighth level immortal at the same time.
That wasn't a coincidence because the method to improve the sword matched perfectly with his training method, so he killed two bird with one stone.
Yale was satisfied with that, but he was worried because Lar had yet to awaken as a Weapon Spirit despite the chief words that she should awaken in a short time.
He had been worried that something bad happened to her, but the chief just told him to wait patiently.
Jika and Dan had also grown, but they were still far from being adult wolves, and despite Yale trying to teach them, they hadn't been able to take human form.
However, their intelligence improved quite a bit, although it was still at a child's level, at least it was at a human's child level, so it was quite higher than before.
Yale was already quite famous in the tribe. Just being in good terms with Awat was already enough for making him famous, but the skill he showed at crafting weapons made his fame even higher.
Although he was still far from the level of proficiency of Awat or the chief, he could already be considered above average in the Weapon Spirit Tribe, which for a foreigner was quite strange.
For what Yale heard, only a few managed to reach that level. In fact, he had been among the fastest ones because the only one who reached that level faster than Yale had been Tofesh.
While Yale was in the tribe, the battle he had with that criminal started to become something of the past. The people hadn't forgotten about him, but he wasn't the hot topic anymore.
At the start, the people found strange that Master Liye disappeared completely, but they had also heard rumors that Master Liye liked calm, so he went far from populated areas to train his disciples peacefully.
Moreover, a certain country spread the news that Master Liye was under their protection and that anyone who harmed him would become their enemy, so the people thought that it was better to avoid involving themselves with Master Liye for fear to offend him.
After all, they knew that Master Liye was awesome, but he was only a seventh level immortal capable of killing and eighth level immortal. There were stronger people than him in the world, so it wouldn't be impossible to survive after offending him if they played well their cards, but the country that backed Master Liye was at another level.
After all, the father of the king was a servant of a member of the Council of Gods, which gave him a status that was far higher than others at the same level.
Moreover, the king himself was still among the strongest experts in the world, even without relying on his father.
Of course, if there was no other way, there were people willing to offend that country, but the price would be too high to do it without a proper reason, and no one had reasons to antagonize such a powerful expert just to harm Master Liye.
Although Yale would be happy to know that his fame faded a bit, if he knew about something else that also happened, he would have wished that his fame persisted a bit more.
The other thing happened while Yale was still isolated in the tribe, not too long after he advanced to eighth level immortal.
A young girl with wolf ears appeared in the same place where Yale entered the Weapon Spirit Tribe, but at that moment, there wasn't a tribe nor anything else there.
That girl was a seventh level immortal, so despite her looks, she was someone very powerful.
She had just ascended from a lower universe to find someone who had ascended before her.
”Big brother, where are you?”
Her question wasn't heard by anyone, and no one replied it.
She couldn't sense where her brother was, so she started to travel without a fixed destination in hopes of hearing something about her brother.
While Wyba left the area where the Spirit Weapon Tribe could appear, Yale was thinking about her while teaching Jika and Dan.
”Have I told you about my sister?”
When Yale said that, Jika and Dan replied at unison.
”Yes! A thousand times!”
