Last Wish System Chapter 316 - Departure From the Continent

Chapter 316: Departure From the Continent

Yale stepped again on the ship, but this time Julie was walking behind him.
“How much time we need to depart?”
Yale knew that the ship didn’t need almost any help to move thanks to the formations as long as one could control them, so the moment to sail of was just determined by Julie’s speed on activating all.
“About ten minutes because I need to dispel the locking formation that fixed to the port.”
Before Julie bought the ship, there weren’t any guards to avoid someone from stepping on the ship, but that was because with the formation no one could use it unless Tar told them the method to unlock it. Of course, it was impossible for anyone in the Zuatania Republic breaking a formation made by someone like Tar who was at the Sage Rank and setting formations was one of Tar’s main strengths.
There had always been elders in the port looking at the ship, but that was their hobby and not their work. Moreover, stepping on the ship for taking a look it wasn’t forbidden, although making small damage to the ship would be equivalent to a death penalty, so very few people dared to take the risk even if the chances of damaging it were almost inexistent.
The ship was resistant and wouldn’t be easily damaged, but it wasn’t like if damaging it was impossible; for example, with enough fire, the ship would be damaged to the point of needing reparations to sail.
“Start the preparations I will go to call the others.”
Saying those words, Yale entered the Storage Space and went to notify everyone that they could already leave since they were about to sail.
Sebe had explained their current situation to the others, so they shock for being already in the other extreme of the continent had already ended when Yale told them to go out.
Of course, there wasn’t anyone who knew how Yale managed to travel so quickly, but they didn’t plan to bother thinking in unveiling a mystery regarding Yale.
Yale didn’t lose time with empty words and left the Storage Space with all the people that could leave.
Except for Sebe and Shirk that had gone previously to see the ship since they had been quite bored while waiting for the day of Yale’s arrival to Trade City, the others were shocked after seeing such a big ship.
Moreover, people like Aizu, George, and Zack that had never seen the sea with their own eyes, were lost in their thought when seeing the seemingly infinite mass of water in front of their eyes.
Of course, they were also shocked after seeing the high buildings of Trade City, especially the headquarters of the Thousand Frost Wolves Company because since their position they saw partially, the Frost Wolves painting and partially Yale’s painting.
They never expected that Yale was so important in Trade City to have his painting in a building
“Everyone, choose a room to stay, I have already chosen mine.”
Yale’s room was the room that was designed for the captain of the ship because since he was the one who organized the travel, he thought that he deserved that room. It wasn’t because he had read so many books of travels across the seas when he was little and wanted to use the chance to feel like the captain of the ship.
Yale repeated that in his mind, but he couldn’t restrain the desire of acting as the captain because that was something he truly wanted to do when he was little before the Last Wish System reacted for the first time.
It was just a childish dream created by the lonely feeling he had every day on the Roanmad Clan in which he spent his days reading books. At that time, he wanted the freedom of the people in those books going to every place they wanted without needing to care about the clan rules or the hate of the other members.
Yale had stopped thinking in those stories after he heard that he had the Last Wish System, and then he focused on turning strong because in the reality that was the only way he could truly be free and without worries about the clan or suffering another painful death.
However, even though he discarded that dream because it wasn’t realistic, and the reality wasn’t like in those old books, the ship was pretty similar on the outside to the ship he always imagined when he was a little kid, and he felt that it wasn’t bad to fulfill that innocent wish of that time.
The others went to choose rooms, but Julie had already picked the second biggest one that was also the closest to Yale’s room, but since she was in charge of controlling the formation on the ship, no one could complain about that.
There were other three big rooms, but those weren’t meant for a single person because those rooms had three beds; Sebe and Shirk picked one of them, and the second one by Nurvey, Ange and Wyba, although no one asked Wyba about it and she would likely remain most of her time with Yale.
Given the position that they had, no one dared to object even though one of the rooms still had a vacant space, but there was quite a conflict between Aizu and Lar about the third one. Aizu tried to say that she would be in that room with Mercer because Mercer was still a kid and as fellow disciples, it was her duty to help him. However, Lar said the same because time ago Yale entrusted Mercer to her.
Mercer wasn’t there as he went alone to explore the ship, but he became the focus of the argument. In the end, since the room was for three and neither planned to concede, they ended deciding that the three would be in that room.
Of course, they didn’t want to leave Mercer alone because both felt that Yale entrusted Mercer to them and thought that Yale would get angry if they didn’t take good care of him.
Swordmad chose to reside alone in a small room. George and Zack decided to share one of the double rooms, and then, the married couple, Kermu and Serka, also chose a double bedroom for themselves.
As for the two wolves, they choose a beautiful garden on the back of the ship. The wolves were there mainly for detecting enemies, so it was better than they weren’t inside the Storage Space.
After everyone chose a room, Julie’s voice appeared in all parts of the ship due to the effects of a formation.
“We are about to sail.”
Hearing Julie’s message, everyone left their rooms because they wanted to see the ship sail and take a last look to Trade City and the continent before departing.
Yale didn’t leave the deck since the moment when the others left the Storage Space. He saw that Tar led a group with the most influent people of Trade City to see them off. That was Oscro’s work; he rushed with all his strength to spread the news in the short span of ten minutes. Fortunately, Oscro found the elderly man sent by Tar, so with communication through tokens it was possible to organize it quickly.
When all the people on the ship reached the deck, the locking formation disappeared, and the ship started to slowly move.
“Good luck!”
Shouts started to sound from the group of people seeing them sail off.
“We all have put our blood and tears in making that ship. We leave to you the duty of letting the ship fulfill its fate!”
The elder who said that was the same one who taught the basics of forging to Yale years ago. At that time, he couldn’t truly believe that Yale would end up being the one who would use that ship to reach the other continent.
“Yale! I know that you are the only one capable of reestablishing the connections between continents. My master always wanted that the relationships between the continents were reestablished one day. I leave that unfulfilled wish to you!”
Tar said those words while thinking about how Zuatania would be happy seeing that Yale was the one who finally took the first step in fulfilling that wish of hers.
“I wonder if that person would also be going.”
Tar remembered about the Mysterious Expert who appeared back then when Yale was advancing to the Novice Rank.
“Of course, I am also going.”
At that moment Tar had the sensation of having heard the Mysterious Expert’s voice, but he wasn’t unable to see the Mysterious Expert, so he thought that he imagined it.
“I have been following Yale since even before he was born, the is no way that would I stop now that he is finally leaving the content.”
The Mysterious Expert had always been following Yale without him noticing about it. Even that night in the library when Yale activated the Last Wish System for the first time, the Mysterious Expert was also in the library, merged in the shadows while hearing how the young Yale shouted carelessly about starting the tutorial.
While the ship started to separate from the shore with all the people wishing good luck to the people leaving the continent, the Mysterious Expert followed them, hiding in the sky.
