novelGeorge's Plan
| ← Ch.242 | Ch.244 → |
Yale looked towards the man who spoke moments ago; he was a tall man with an arm that seemed that of a metal golem.
"George?"
George had changed a lot, but there wasn't anyone else who Yale had saved and had some similarity to that man with the metal arm.
In fact, George had changed a lot before even returning to Nacesai City; the noble clans had expended a lot of resources to help him back then, making that his body matured a lot faster. After that, he needed five years to reach the Novice Rank, but only one additional year to reach the Apprentice Rank.
He reached the Novice Rank at the same moment that he managed to create his metal golem arm and turning his weakness into strength; since that moment there was also a huge change in his training speed.
"Correct, I am George. I thought that you would be shocked by my level when we meet again, but it seems that I have greatly underestimated you."
George's level was indeed shocking for being a normal guy without an overly strong background; his progress was comparable to the members of the noble clans, but he didn't have the same resources as them.
However, Yale's level was abnormal, so George felt that he was still unable to beat Yale in terms of talent.
In fact, it would be weird if a normal guy without background trained more quickly that Yale because Yale had two Condensed Essences, three divine legacy bloodlines, and a divine beast bloodline; his foundation was in a level that would be impossible for others to reach. Thus, even though training the Origin path was slower than the other paths, Yale's speed was still extremely quick.
Moreover, Yale was a reincarnated expert despite having a lack of memories, so beating a normal guy in training speed wasn't something that he could be proud.
"Don't try to compare with me; I have some special circumstances. Your progression would be great even among the younger generation of the noble clans; you can be proud of that."
George smiled wryly; he also considered that his sudden increase of speed after creating his metal golem arm was rather a special circumstance, but it seemed that it wasn't too special compared to Yale's experiences in those six years.
"We can talk later. Now, I need to go to save Ange."
Yale was happy to have met George again after so much time, but he didn't have time to chitchat at that moment.
"Let me help you! In terms of creating golems, I am the best in Nacesai City."
Swordmad nodded to George's words because he acknowledged the ability of George with the golems. Yale had guessed that George had some high attainment in golems when he saw the metal golem arm, but he didn't expect that even Swordmad acknowledged that George was the best in Nacesai City in that area.
Studying golems was something slow, and ultimately golems are an external aid, so usually, no one liked to spend too much time on them. However, George spent a lot of time researching them while he was still in the Mortal Rank, but his objective was to turn those golems into his own strength, and he managed to do it.
In fact, George's feat was far more impressive than it seemed; integrating elemental parts like a golem arm in a body and merging perfectly with it was something that would be difficult for even some Law Masters. To be able to blend freely with an element, one needed to surpass the Law Master level in the law related to that element.
Of course, George's level of integration was extremely far from the one that could obtain someone at such a high level, for them switching elemental parts to organic part was something that needed just a thought. George managed to use the arm like his own and had his power increased thanks to that, but ultimately the arm was still something external to his body that would need to be repaired if broken; it couldn't be just healed like a normal arm because it wasn't a true part of his body.
Despite that, the fact he managed to create that arm and use it as his own at his level indicated that George had an incredible potential to train the Earth Law in the future and with a good teacher, he would be able to reach at least the Law Master level without too many difficulties in the future.
Of course, without a teacher George's progress would only depend on his own effort and insights, so his chances of turning a Law Master someday would be far lower than they would be with a teacher.
Sadly, there wasn't any decent teacher to help George to progress. Even Liye hadn't been specialized in that area and wouldn't be able to give him the best training. Although the general knowledge would still be awesome, Liye had never put a lot of efforts in the Earth Law, so he wouldn't be able to extract all the potential from George's talent.
Moreover, no one in Nacesai City including Yale had knowledge about the Earth Law, nor about merging body and elements, so they were underestimating the talent George developed thanks to his stubbornness and couldn't help him either.
"How can you help me with your golems?"
Yale had no idea of George's thoughts, but if that helped Ange's rescue, he was open to any idea.
"We can disguise golems as normal people to create a fake army. While those bastards are distracted dealing with the fake army made by golems, you can infiltrate to save Ange. Swordmad and I are too well-known in the other city, so it is better if we appear among the army to distract them."
Swordmad was one of the strongest in Nacesai City, so it was normal that the other party knew about him. As for George, he was an extremely rare talent in creating golems, so he had also been thoroughly investigated.
"Moreover, you are the only one who can fly; you shall use that advantage to infiltrate the city; if someone else goes with you, your movements would be limited."
George had turned smarter in those six years; his ability with the golems couldn't be obtained just being a muscle-head.
"That is indeed a good idea. Thank you."
Yale knew that George didn't have any reason to risk his life to help Ange after just having survived a disaster.
"I will be angry if you thank me for this. You saved my life six years ago, and you just saved me again when you killed those bastards. If I don't help you now that I can do it, I will be unable to train at peace."
George always considered Yale as his rival, so there was no way he would always be accepting his help and refuse to help him when Yale needed some help.
Yale didn't reply to that, but he was pleased with George's behavior.
"How much time do you need? The plan is good, but I can't wait, who knows what those bastards are doing to her right now."
Yale had heard that they were still unable to enslave Ange, but he didn't know if he could believe those words and even if they were true, he didn't know if she would be enslaved at any moment while they were speaking.
"Don't worry. We used a lot of golems to create that golem wall; we can use them to create the fake army. You can start to make your preparations, I just need an hour, and the army will be ready."
George ran towards the golem wall and started to instruct all the people under his orders; he knew that he couldn't lose time, so he said one hour when usually that would need far more time. However, everyone was ready to overwork for the person who had just saved their lives.
"Master, I will return after a while, don't worry for me."
Saying those words, Yale disappeared as he entered into the Storage Space.
Swordmad was shocked by Yale's sudden disappearance, but he believed in his words and decided to go to speak with Sainac about George's plan.
Yale appeared inside the Storage Space and went to speak with Aiwai about their current situation; she couldn't get out the Storage Space, but her help from the inside was still very important.
At that moment he was also regretting hadn't asked someone of the Larken Clan to accompany him, but if they couldn't fly, they would have turned into a burden in the previous attack and Yale hadn't even thought about asking for help back then.
That was the first time that Yale mentioned Ange's existence to Aiwai, although he didn't mention that Ange didn't have a beast bloodline.
"So, I am not your only big sister. Well, even if she is your big sister she is still younger than me, so I am still the big sister. Returning to the important topic, I have a lot of armors and weapons ready just as you requested before. The armors cover the full body; it would be difficult to know if there were people of golems hidden by them just by the looks."
Originally, Yale had requested those armors for the Larken Clan, but he needed to use them at that moment; those at the Larken Clan would need to wait until Aiwai finished more armors.
"Big brother, I also want to help!"
