Chapter 393 Broken Cover
Last Wish System
"Those two were too reckless. Although everything in the area covered for the Absolute Protection will be nullified, if it weren't for my barrier even the area outside the barrier would have been damaged."
The Mysterious Expert was observing the damaged area where he noticed that Yale was reappearing.
It was more like an illusion materializing than a body regenerating because Yale's body was completely destroyed. As long as one was at least a Law God, regenerating the body was just a matter of time as long as the soul was still intact. A Law Master would also be able to do it, but the difficulty would be several times higher, and it was possible that the regeneration wasn't perfect.
However, Yale wasn't even a Law Master despite being able to use a power comparable with an Essence God by going all-out. Moreover, his soul was far more damaged than when he reincarnated in his past life since the damage neared that of his self-injury to destroy the curse.
The only reason for his soul and body reappearing in a perfect state before the effects of Absolute Protection activated and restored everything was that he was a Timeless Sovereign.
Yale's face was pale, and he was only in the sky because he materialized his wings. At that moment, he was extremely weak and couldn't fly with his own energy.
Yale's attack had been far too self-destructive, but he bet all his chances of victory to his regeneration as a Timeless Sovereign. If that were a real battle, he wouldn't have dared to take a bet like that since the chances of even his soul being completely destroyed were high and even surviving, it wouldn't be hard for someone else to kill him.
Lina also had her body completely destroyed by Yale's attack. She never expected that Yale would be so decisive in throwing his life even in a situation that the results of the battle would disappear.
However, Lina's soul was just as damaged ad Liye's soul before reincarnation. Although her soul was dissipating, she would still be able to reform her body and live for some time in that state.
"It seems that this is my victory."
That message was transmitted directly to Lina's soul, who wasn't capable of replying at that moment, but she felt that since Yale could still send messages, she had lost.
For an Essence God like her, there wasn't too much difference between the body and the soul, but after all her exhaustion, she wasn't even able to use the power of her soul to see and hear the surroundings.
If Yale's hadn't been a Timeless Sovereign, that battle would have been won by Lina, since her state was still far better than Yale's state after the clash but having incredible regeneration capabilities was still part of the factors that could decide the result of a battle.
Yale looked around while waiting for everything to restore, which would also improve his own state.
There were just some seconds left for that, but Yale noticed that there was a building intact even after the clash.
It was a building with the form of a box and was completely white.
As for its position, it was in a place that was covered by the mountain range before Yale and Lina destroyed it.
"Maybe, this area has such extreme weather conditions to protect that building?"
Yale was sure that the building was created by his father and was something important because anything built with materials capable of enduring that clash couldn't be something ordinary and Yale felt that only his father could have hidden that building inside the mountains because they existed from the time where the world was created.
However, Yale didn't have any time to investigate it because the mountain range restored at the same time that Yale and Lina restored their bodies and souls completely.
At that moment, both had mental exhaustion, but there wasn't any real problem with their bodies nor with their souls.
Lina was lying down in a nearby mountain while looking at Yale who was on the sky spreading his wings. He truly didn't need them after everything turned back, but he didn't bother to hide them.
"Don't be depressed. I won, but this isn't the end of the world."
Yale didn't feel haughty for that victory because he knew that he only won because of the situation and that it wouldn't work again.
Moreover, he didn't dare to be so crazy with the Celestial knowledge again because the level of the attack he did far surpass his own capabilities and the mental exhaustion was far too much.
"I know. You won because I never expected your actions, but that won't happen for a second time."
Yale had extended his hand to help Lina to stand up. Although they had a crazy battle, they weren't enemies.
Lina grabbed Yale's hand and stood up.
"When did you say that we will have the second round?"
Yale looked at Line with a shocked expression on his face.
"Second round?"
Yale spoke unconsciously because he was already at his limit and if possible, he didn't wasn't to have another battle against Lina.
After all, he was too weak at the moment, and it wasn't wise battling against an Essence God without reasons. If it weren't because Wyba and Aiwai were far too important for him, he wouldn't have accepted a duel against Lina.
"I am just joking."
Lina started to laugh after seeing Yale's face. At that moment, she didn't seem like her previous cold self.
"I am also mentally exhausted, and I know that you are in a weakened state."
Lina didn't like battling without reason, but she really enjoyed the battle against Yale because it had been different than usual battles. However, that didn't mean that she planned to battle again since she knew that Yale would be at a disadvantage due to his weakened state.
Defeating an opponent who couldn't battle properly wouldn't be gratifying, and since Yale wasn't her enemy, she didn't need to use all available methods to defeat him.
"To think that you can say jokes... Now, you seem more the lively girl of the Timeless Border instead of an icy woman."
Lina's personality was originally like that. She turned cold because of her past. Moreover, she needed to show authority and shoulder responsibilities, and others didn't take her seriously unless she acted like that.
"Eh... Forget about this immediately. I shouldn't have shown this part of myself. Well, at least Wyba and Aiwai aren't here to see it."
She had the rule of never showing that part of herself to others, but after that battle, she forgot about it for some moments.
"I doubt that I can forget it. Moreover, I put a screen in my dimension to Wyba and Aiwai. I wanted them to look at our battle, so they should have also seen you laughing without your icy cover."
The transmission stopped when Yale's body disappeared temporally, but it restarted later. Wyba and Aiwai had been worried to death when the transmission cut, but they also knew that if the Storage Space continued to exist, Yale was still alive.
"Really? Are you joking? This is a joke, right?"
At that moment, the one with a funny face was Lina. She felt that she worked so hard to obtain the respect of Aiwai and Wyba and that after seeing that scene both of them would have lost it.
"It isn't a joke, but I don't know why you worry so much about this."
Yale was unable to understand Lina's way of thought.
"They should be disappointed right now. I never made such a big mistake for a long time..."
She felt that since Yale appeared, her cover had been blown off far too quickly. Lina always tried to act like a perfect older sister to her sister and her brother-in-law, and the same applied to Wyba and Aiwai. Even in front of her father, she always acted like that, and she had forgotten when was the last time that she had shown that part of herself openly.
"I am sure that they aren't disappointed at all. You should have your reasons for this obsession of seeming someone cold, and I don't think that there is a problem with it, but I am sure that Wyba and Aiwai want to see that part of yourself."
Yale and Lina were mere acquaintances who had barely meet and battled against each other, but Aiwai and Wyba lived more than ten years with her, so Yale felt normal that Lina was worried about how they thought of her.
"I find it difficult to believe..."
Yale didn't know what kind of trauma Lina had to be so concerned about that topic, nor he was planning to ask Lina about her past, but there was something he could do.
"Come with me to my dimension. Ask them personally, and you will know the answer."
Yale was far too tired, so he wanted to take a good rest inside the Storage Space, but he also feared that Lina would flee and fail to fulfill her promise.
"Alright. The damage is done. It is better to face reality."
Lina sighed after recovering her calm and didn't resist Yale from moving both of them to the Storage Space.
