Chapter 17: Origin Path Training Method
The next sub-quest in the Main Chain Quest was as depressing as the previous one to Yale.
“Reach 1-star in the Origin Path. Reward: Battle Skill and Magic Skill.”
Yale already expected that kind of quest, in normal circumstances reaching the ten points in each stat just before his tenth birthday would already be very good, so it was normal that the next sub-quest was to reach the 1-star realm.
Yale closed the Quest Menu and focused on revising the Origin Path Training Method he obtained as a reward from the previous sub-quest.
The Origin Path Training method was way more difficult than a training method from the Magus Path or the Warrior Path.
Yale obtained training methods to become a Magus or a Warrior from his sister, they were the top quality training methods in the Nacesai Academy, and since Yale saved Ange’s life, the Academy approved of letting him have a copy of those to study.
Of course, Yale didn’t need them as he would be practicing the Origin Path so the method to use would be the Origin Path Training Method.
However, those top-quality methods were a good cover for the Origin Path. Officially Yale would be dual training those methods, after all, anything related to the Origin Path shouldn’t be made public.
The training method for the Warrior Path focused on stimulating the physical body to generate Inner Qi and use it to enhance the body and use Battle Skills.
On the other hand, the training method for the Magus Path focused on absorbing the energy from the world, refining it and then use it as one’s magical energy to cast Magic Skills, in popular words, spells.
However, the Origin Path worked in a different way.
Once he had fully memorized the training method and had turned ten, then Yale’s body would automatically create a strand of Origin Qi. That strand should be circulated in his body, enhancing it, and at the same time, that strand would merge with the world’s energy and slowly transform it into another strand of Origin Qi.
The Origin Path had factors from the other two paths, but the difficulty was much higher, transforming the world’s energy into Origin Qi was more difficult than simply turning it into magic energy. And simply enhancing the body wouldn’t increase the strength of the Origin Qi like the Inner Qi.
However, the quality of the Origin Qi was much higher, even if Yale had less Origin Qi than the opponent’s Inner Qi or magical energy it wouldn’t matter.
Furthermore, the same Origin Qi could be used for both Magic Skills or Battle Skills, making it easier to use combined techniques.
Dual practitioners tend to combine Battle Skills with spells to increase their battle prowess, but combining two different kinds of energy was hard. On the other hand, with the Origin Qi, it would be easy to combine them.
Yale postponed studying the Origin path Training Method as he first wanted to do a proper burial for the Frost Wolf, he wanted to avoid attracting other beasts and letting them feast on the Frost Wolf corpse.
Yale started to dig, and at some point, the small wolf started to help him, they wanted to dig a deep hole, so they needed a lot of time to do it.
Some beasts tried to attack them at that time, but all of them ended a meal to Yale, and the little wolf, the most powerful ones were only 1-star monsters, and they couldn’t evade Yale’s deadly arrows.
After offering a proper burial for the Frost Wolf and covering the hole, Yale bowed again to the already deceased Frost Wolf.
After that, Yale started to study the Origin Path Training Method next to the tomb and the little cub. Memorizing that training method was difficult to even a bookworm like Yale, but it was nothing that he couldn’t do, especially with all the time he had before his birthday.
Living was easy those days as there was no need to go hunting, the beasts who tried to attack them were enough to eat, and Yale didn’t feel like going to hunt for the Dynamic Quest as he put all his concentration in memorizing the Origin Path Training Method.
Yale needed about two weeks to memorize it fully. And after that, he couldn’t do anything more until his birthday regarding the Origin Path.
Yale decided to go hunting to get better rewards from the Dynamic Quest. After all, he couldn’t just remain seated in the same spot until his birthday.
When Yale went hunting the little cub followed, and Yale did nothing to stop it, the little cub wouldn’t survive without Yale so taking it with him while going to hunt was the best option.
Since he obtained the Frost Wolf’s Legacy, Yale tried to communicate with the little wolf, due to Yale’s recently obtained bloodline he should be able to, but the little wolf was still too small.
Yale hoped to be able to communicate with it before having to leave the Beast Trial, but he wasn’t an expert in the communication among beasts so he didn’t know how much time a cub would need to be able to communicate.
Yale and the little wolf hunted for some months, they hunted a lot of 1-star monsters and evaded the stronger ones.
Yale felt confident in killing a 2-star beast using the Bloodline Force, but he wasn’t confident to finish it without wounds while protecting the little wolf during the battle.
Yale wouldn’t be able to forgive himself if the little wolf died due to the battle or because another beast attacked it while Yale was battling.
The little wolf became stronger in those months, but it still hadn’t reached the 1-star realm. When it turned into a 1-star monster, the little wolf would be able to use the power from his bloodline to quickly increase in power until it could survive by itself.
One day Yale saw a 2-star black wolf, the same black wolf that fled from the Fire-wood Tiger. Yale was unable to see it well before, but the bloodline obtained from the Legacy burned with rage when he looked at it.
Besides protecting the little wolf, the last thing the Frost Wolf wished for, was for the black wolf who fled at the most important moment to be killed.
If the black wolf battled instead of running away, the Frost Wolf would probably still be alive. That black wolf was a Fire Wolf, a beast with some resistance to fire due to having it as the main element and it would have been far more useful than Yale in the battle against the Fire-wood Tiger.
That Fire Wolf was also the little wolf’s father, who was even less reliable than Yale’s father.
Yale usually evaded the 2-star monsters, but this time he had to finish it as this was one of the last wishes from the Frost Wolf and Yale himself despised the Fire Wolf’s actions.
Yale looked at the little wolf and saw the anger in its eyes; its bloodline couldn’t forgive the Fire Wolf.
Yale told the little wolf to stay behind as he shot an arrow toward the Fire Wolf and quickly wielded his damaged sword.
Yale also activated the Bloodline Force, and he ran towards the Fire Wolf slashing it.
The Fire Wolf became slightly injured as it retreated and looked with anger towards Yale.
“Damned human!”
Yale became slightly surprised as he understood the Fire Wolf, but he continued to attack.
“Why are you attacking me, I never did anything to anger you.”
The Fire Wolf sensed that Yale wasn’t weaker than him and with its cowardly character tried to avoid the battle. In fact, the wolf wasn’t speaking, his intellect wasn’t that high, but Yale understood its intentions as if it were speaking.
“You abandoned your daughter and your wife and ran away when you could have battled to save them.”
Yale said coldly. After living with the little wolf for that long, he already knew that it was a female.
“Of course, I did it a lot of times, but I have too many sons and daughters and also too many wives, I don’t even remember them all, how could I remember which one you are talking about?”
Yale was becoming angrier by the second but still replied.
“I’m talking about a 3-star Frost Wolf and its daughter.”
“Oh, that one. It was sad, with that power I could have profited a lot more, but it had bad luck. And you should also be happy with her death; I noticed that you have her bloodline on your body. That powerful bloodline should be helpful to you, why bother on revenging her? You should be thanking me.”
That Fire Wolf tried to convince Yale to stop battling. Its words would have served to calm any other human, but to Yale, the effect was the opposite.
Yale smiled and replied to it.
“If you see the things that way there’s nothing more to say.”
The Fire Wolf sighed as he avoided a tiresome battle and at the next second its head flew as Yale killed him.
“A father like you shouldn’t exist, there’s no reason to talk anymore with you. Without you, the world is a better place.”
A 2-star monster died because of its cowardice with its killer completely unharmed.
Yale wasn’t happy for this easy kill of a powerful monster, killing it in that way didn’t have any honor, but to Yale killing the Fire Wolf was something he needed to do. Yale didn’t bother about the means; he only wanted to do it quickly to avoid putting the little wolf in danger.If you find any errors ( broken links, non-standard content, etc.. ), Please let us know < report chapter > so we can fix it as soon as possible.
