Last Wish System 493 Fifteen Years of Research

Yale didn't have any doubt that the cloak was crafted by someone like Tofesh, but if that person had sold his crafting, he would have been quite famous, and that wasn't the case.
Tofesh wasn't very famous, but for someone who had yet to become a Law Master, his works were of too high quality, so it wasn't difficult to find some information about him.
On the other hand, there had never been someone similar to him in making clothes like that cloak.
The person who crafted that cloak should have done it to use it himself or to give it to his descendants.
Yale guessed that probably the person who gave the legacy to Gerken was one of that person descendants, or he was a friend of those descendants.
That cloak had protection, only people acknowledged by the previous owner could use it.
Gerken became acknowledged because he obtained the legacy, but for the person who left it to him being acknowledged by the previous one, he should have had some kind of relationship with the crafter although it was probably an indirect one.
"Thank you. This should be enough for now. If my main body is still unable to succeed, I will ask you to lend it to me again to investigate it more."
Although Yale had several ideas after investigating it, without testing them, he couldn't know if he could succeed or not.
Moreover, gaining more understanding without trying to craft it first would be very difficult.
Gerken received back the cloak and smiled.
"You can come to see me at any time."
Gerken liked having someone to speak who wasn't weaker than him. Yale was the first person who was stronger than him that had spoken with him like that.
"I will do it if I have time. Farewell."
Yale's incarnation disappeared after finishing to speak.
Gerken continued to observe Ange and Lily while they practiced in order to improve their prowess using their wings.
After his incarnation disappeared, Yale started to work immediately on replicating eh effects of that cloak.
Fifteen years later, Yale succeeded for the first time in making a set of clothes with similar effects. However, those clothes, instead of hiding the presence replicated the presence of the surrounding making that the person wearing them would be easily be ignored.
It wasn't as good as erasing the presence completely, but it was still better than nothing.
In those fifteen years, Ange had almost mastered all the Laws despite not putting too much effort on her training.
Instead, she had been focusing on helping Lily to train because she quickly discovered that Lily's talent for training was incredibly low even with the help of the bloodline.
All wolves with a divine beast bloodline would directly obtain a Path that wasn't any worse than a Fake Origin Path thanks to the Wolf God's blessing, and Lily also obtained that Path after her bloodline became that of a divine beast.
Moreover, since she was counted as a beast due to the Path she was following, she was able to start training directly instead of waiting until turning ten.

However, she barely managed to reach the Novice Rank the day before her sixteenth birthday, and that was only because Ange put all her effort into helping her or else, she would have failed.
Lily was ashamed for her own lack of talent, but Ange never gave up on helping her to become successful.
Ange didn't mind slowing her training if it was to help Lily. When she decided to adopt her as her little sister, she did it seriously and was ready to put all her effort into helping her.
Lily had been unable to change to human form, and since trying to learn would have been a waste of time given the time limit to reach the Novice Rank, Ange decided to put that matter aside.
In fact, Ange decided to remain in her half-beast form to prevent that Lily thought about changing to human form.
After fifteen years, Ange hadn't changed the least, but Lily already looked of a similar age to her, but if it weren't because she managed to reach the Novice Rank some years before, she would have already looked older than Ange.
Despite her looks, she still acted like a kid around Ange, and Ange always treated her like a little girl.
Lily grew completely attached to Ange and was always at her side.
After so much time, Lily was already used to her wings, and she flew like if she had always done it.
As for Ange, he didn't feel anything strange from her wolf parts after spending so much time in her half-beast form.
There had been people who turned aggressive towards them for their looks, but anyone who dared to attack them turned into a statue of ice.
Ange developed the habit of turning the bodies of the offenders into pure ice while leaving the soul unaffected, which provoked that people died without pain just feeling cold at the moment they lost their bodies.
As for the souls, they were punished in the same way as those in Lily's town.
Ange had never initiated a conflict. She only showed her power when people tried to harm them.
Of course, not everyone hated them for their looks. There were a lot of people who just were curious and some women who loved to touch their tails and ears.
There were also some men who seemed to have a fetish with wolf ears and tails, but there weren't any men who managed to touch them.
Several men tried to declare their love to them, but they were always rejected.
The one who received more confessions was Lily because the men could sense that she wasn't strong while they were unable to notice Ange's level and they didn't believe that she was a mere mortal.
Lily was seriously annoyed by those men.
"Why are they always like that. They have only eyes for my ears and my tail. At most, some of them look at my chest before changing the direction of their gazes, disappointed."
Although she wasn't completely flat, her chest was under average in size, and it wasn't as eye-catching as her wolf parts.
Lily was still a cute-type girl instead of an exuberant beauty despite her age, and she didn't have too much hope in changing in the future.
She was a head shorter than Ange, who was quite tall as a woman, and since her chest was small and her overall figure wasn't too curvaceous, when she acted with her childish personality, she didn't seem to be an adult woman at all.
The faces of Ange and Lina showed to be of the same age, but Ange had the body of a beauty, and always acted like a big sister, so she would attract gazes even if she didn't have her wolf parts.
Of course, Ange didn't care in the slightest about if she was popular or not, and Lily didn't mind either about being popular, it was just that she was disgusted by the disappointed gazes of those men.
Ange just didn't care about romantic relationships because she knew the rules of her family, and she was still considered a child until she became an Essence God.
However, Lily's case was different. She cared about romantic relationships, or more exactly about a single romantic relationship. She had been in love with Ange since the day she saved her, and she had loved her even more as they lived together those fifteen years.
Of course, Ange didn't know anything about that and considered that Lily just loved her as a sister.
Ange didn't notice it, but Lina who was observing them noticed it, and she truly didn't mind about it. Except for men of her family and Yale, Lina hated the rest of men. If it hadn't been for meeting Yale, she would have probably remained single or ended up with another woman.
Thus, she wasn't be angry by Lily's disposition. Ange hadn't shown any sign of loving Lily in a way that wasn't different from that of a sister, but Lina wouldn't really mind even if she did.
Most factions would be angry if that kind of relationship happened, but Lina cared more about Ange's happiness than the prosperity of the faction.
Thus, regardless of what happened at the end, Lina would support her daughter with all her strength, and she was sure that Yale would do the same.
When Yale left his seclusion after finishing his first set of clothes result of his research on hiding presence effects into clothing, Line told about Lily's matter to him, and Yale just replied a single sentence.
"Whatever makes Ange happy."
Yale rested for several days before starting to walk again to a secluded room to continue crafting clothes with hidden effects, but when he was about to reach the door, he stopped.
"Dead. The first death of those hundred souls. It has already gone o reincarnation, and the first set of life memories is ready to research."
Yale let the matter about the clothes for later and entered into the room to study the fate of that life.
The clothes were useful for the war, but the research about fate could help Yale to reach a higher level, which would also allow Lina and the other with the simplified version to reach a higher level, which was far more important.
