Last Wish System

"In the end, I have completely lost the control of the situation."

A sea monster sighed while waiting at the sidelines while other organized the army.

It was the one who started organizing everything and called all the sea monsters he knew to organize an attack, but coincidentally, one of them knew someone who had a grudge with Ronragruk and went to inform that person about the matter.

After that, it turned into an endless chain of grudges and favors, and no one cared about the sea monster who initiated everything.

Even the other sea monsters didn't have too many importance after the plan turned something big enough to shake the continent.

There were several Law Master between those who created the army and the members at the Grandmaster Rank and Sage Rank weren't low at all. Of course, those who were weaker than that were even more numerous.

The army had spent a lot of effort recruiting people while at the same time, they were trying to hide the true strength of their army to prevent the Dragon Race from having time to flee.

The greatest change to the army was when the ancestor of the Birdmen Kingdom left his seclusion after the plans for the war had already started.

The birdmen had a bad relationship with the Dragon Race because they were inferior to them in quality of bloodline, but since their numbers were far higher, both parties were equal in power each time they battled.

The same applied to the ancestor of the birdmen and Ronragruk, both of them were old enemies, and although Ronragruk always had the advantage, he had never managed to kill his opponent.

It was obvious that the birdmen would choose to join the army to attack the Dragon Race, but after the ancestor showed up after having turned a Law God, the whole management of the army fell on him, and no one dared to object.

The army grew nonstop after that moment. Although most people who joined didn't have any grudge with the Dragon Race, they wanted to help the Birdmen Kingdom to avoid that the next exterminated were them.

After all, a Law God was enough to provoke a huge change in the powers controlling the area.

In fact, the ancestor of the birdmen didn't want just to defeat and kill the members of the Dragon Race because he wanted to annihilate them overbearingly and humiliate them until he was tired of it.

"Ronragruk, bastard. You think that you are great for being a divine beast and having that bunch of members of an artificial race of people under your command, but this time I will show you who is the strongest! The preparation time ended, let's head to the Dragon Race!"

The loud shout of the birdman ancestor reached the sea monster eyes while he was sighing for the situation.

"Well, as long as that guy dies, I shouldn't have any problem, and I doubt that I would become the main target of hatred for that guy's background."

Diverting the attention away from itself was his intention from the start, but it turned completely irrelevant to the plan. There were a lot of sea monsters there with his same level of power so it couldn't be considered anything special.

"You really planned something big."

The sea monster's blood froze after hearing that voice that he couldn't forget because the scare he had more than one year for that mysterious man with red eyes still provoked nightmares every night for the sea monster.

"I am glad that your eminence is pleased with it."

The sea monster couldn't see the red-eyed man, but if he could reach the sea monster by Spiritual Sense, he could also kill it without any difficulty.

"You managed to form an army that would hide your implication into this matter completely. This is a great surprise because you are the only thing that relates me to this army."

The sea monster didn't understand the meaning of those words before his body and soul were destroyed simultaneously without leaving any traces behind.

"Now, no one would be able to say that this is my fault."

At the top of a near mountain, the man with red eyes laughed while observed the army that started to move.

Three months had passed since Shirk's bloodline was upgraded, and some of the lizardmen had started to apply for having their bloodlines upgrades.

After having done it once, Yale's speed increased a lot the second time as he only needed five days, and after that, the times continued to decrease to the point that he could apply all the procedures to the lizardmen directly and then they just needed to wait two days to see the effects.

Some of the strongest lizardmen like the chief had undergone the upgrade with hopes of becoming Law Masters, and the chief even managed to reach the 9-star Sage in those months after his upgrade, but the last barrier wasn't easy to break.

If he had been born as a member of the Dragon Race instead than being a lizardman, he would have become a Law Master time ago with his talent and comprehension. Sadly, even after the upgrade, it wasn't that easy make it up for all the time he lost.

All the lizardmen enjoyed some increase in power after the upgrade, but the differences were more pronounced on those older and stronger.

Ronragruk was quite pleased with the increase of strength of the Dragon Race and felt that Yale's methods had been correct to win the hearts of the lizardmen.

At that time, no one paid attention on the affairs of the war that was being planned on the outside after the reports stated that there was just one Law Master in the whole army, and that wasn't something that could bother the Dragon Race. Of course, their report was incorrect due to the fake news that had been spread by the army, but they had no way to know it.

The first time when they noticed about the incoming danger was during the marriage day of Shirk and Driwna, which was a big festivity in all the tribe despite the shock their relationship produced to everyone.

At the start, Ronragruk was quite angry when someone interrupted them to give a report of the situation in the middle of the party after the marriage ceremony.

However, when he heard the report, his face changed, and the rest of Law Masters plus Yale that were with Ronragruk at that moment had the same reaction.

A huge army was nearing them at top speed, and their forces seemed enough to threaten the Dragon Race since there were several Law Masters. Moreover, it appeared that a group of Sea Monsters was nearing from the coast, so they were suffering a pincer attack, and fleeing didn't seem possible at that point.

However, the news about a Law God leading the army didn't reach their ears, or they would have rather left the world immediately instead of trying to plan the defense.

Leaving the world implied abandoning most of the members of the tribe because they couldn't survive outside the world, and although Yale's Storage Space improved and could already fit fifty people at the same time, it was still insufficient to save everyone.

Thus, except if the situation was that of a sure defeat, the strongest members wouldn't rely on fleeing from the world to survive.

"Ronragruk, I will hide the most vulnerable and talented members of your tribe. However, I will leave enough space for all my friends, you, and me. In case of defeat, we would still have chances to survive and take revenge."

Yale wouldn't choose to flee just with his friends even in that situation because he didn't feel it correct, and the system had also reacted immediately creating a quest once Yale heard the report.

"Participate in the war and survive till the end."

The quest was direct, and as always after the upgrade, it didn't show the rewards.

In any case, Yale planned to hide all his friend in the Storage Space and activate the random teleportation in case of being unable to win.

Then, he would just need to hide inside the Storage Space with them for some time to let the army stop trying to look for them.

Of course, he would be abandoning all the rest of members of the Dragon Race with that act, but for him, the lives of his friends were still more valuable than the lives of others or even the quests from the system.

The festivities ended for the tribe and immediately started to work on the defenses of the tribe against the incoming army. At the same time, Yale made almost all his friends hide in the Storage Space with some talented kids of the Dragon Race.

Of Yale's group, the only ones who remained outside were Yale, Sebe, Swordmad, Lar, and Nurvey. Even Shirk had decided to hide together with his wife despite being at the Elder Rank.

Both had just married, and Yale didn't want that the couple was broken apart by the war, especially since both of them were the type of people who would sacrifice for others.

Nurvey had become a Grandmaster in the previous month, so even though she was still starless at that level, she was able to fly, and her support spells were far too useful in a war when defending. If that weren't the case, Yale would have forced her to hide.
