novelConvergence of Fate

"You did well, but this is the last chance. If you offend me once more, I will directly wipe out your whole tribe."
The lizardman chief didn't reply, but he swore in his mind that he wouldn't dare to do something like that.
"You should know that even if I don't act there are some Law Gods backing that group, so your tribe didn't even stand a chance if you still dare to harm them. For example, Sebe is the great-grandson of my disciple, the Demon Lord."
Sebe wasn't literally the great-grandson of the Demon Lord, but Anpaes received the Demon Lord's bloodline, so it could be considered something like that since as far as Yale remembered the Demon Lord never got married.
After hearing Yale, the chief understood that he was still underestimating Yale's group and that they were far more fearsome than they seemed at first sight.
The chief returned to his house in silence while thinking how to explain the situation to the others. He needed to ensure that no one had any thought about harming Yale's group like had done those fools of the Lizardman God Cult, or the chief was sure that they would be exterminated.
Yale went to rest to the Storage Space since he wanted to inform about the situation to the others. In the end, Yale felt that making everyone hide from the moment they reached the western continent had been a wise choice since the poison would have been lethal to someone weak even if the objective of the poison wasn't killing.
The next day, Yale went out the Storage Space, but he hid until seeing the reaction of the lizardman tribe to the news of the chief regarding the Lizardman God Cult.
As Yale expected the first reaction of the lizardman tribe wasn't very good after hearing that their own chief had killed some of the strongest members of the tribe because they offended outsiders.
They didn't feel that the Lizardman God Cult had acted well, but they thought that death was an extremely hard punishment given the status of the members killed by the chief.
However, everyone fell silent when the chief spoke about the presence of the man who put an end to the invasion of the eastern continent. After all, everyone knew that the chief was alive at that time and if he was ensuring that it was the same person, they could only say that believe it even if they didn't want to say it.
"They are accepting it on the outside, but most still doubt about my presence here, maybe I need to trust in my mysterious backer again..."
Yale could just leave the lizardman tribe and stop bothering by the opinions of the others, but he remembered that Shirk wanted a girlfriend and it was difficult that he could find one if it weren't on a lizardman tribe.
Of course, Shirk had no time for that the previous night, and maybe he wouldn't like any female of the tribe, but Yale felt a bit of pity on him because he noticed how jealous he was of the relationship between Mercer and Merumi, and the one between Serka and Kermu.
"Expecting my help again? You don't need it this time. The convergence of fate will happen soon. No matter how the fate is distorted, this is something that was destined to happen from the start."
The Mysterious Expert spoke words that no one would hear like usual, but his tone was more serious than usual when speaking.
Soon after the Mysterious Expert finish to speak, Yale felt a huge headache like if something inside of him was about to burst but his body was blocking it.
"Resonance impossible to block. The Last Wish System would be impossible to use until the resonance ended."
Just after Yale heard that notification from the system, he felt as is something appeared inside his soul and a powerful aura spread from his body.
Yale wanted to cry due to the pain he was suffering while the aura was leaking from his body, but he couldn't control his body even to do that.
Moreover, at the same moment that the aura started to leak, Yale advanced to the Grandmaster Rank. Yale still needed to train some more time to advance, but the aura forced his breakthrough due to his previous level being too weak to endure it.
The leaking aura reached the lizardmen hearing the chief and all of them fell to their knees without any strength left to move. Even the chief was unable to do anything, and he was sure that the aura he was feeling was several times stronger than the one he felt the previous day.
At that moment, no one dared to doubt about the words said by the chief because it was clear that there was something extremely powerful near their tribe.
"As expected, not even the improved Last Wish System can block this resonance. In the end, the resonance has been provoked because the real bodies of three of the inheritors are near each other."
The Mysterious Expert was serious while speaking, but then suddenly smiled.
"This fate is unavoidable, but none of you really understands about it. You all should understand more about it when the five pieces of the legacy are reunited once more."
A minute before the aura leaked from Yale's body, at another part of the western continent, a man was walking by the road like a normal traveler.
"That ocean wasn't that much interesting after all, only at the start, but later on it was quite boring."
There were some men with weapons on their hands in front of the man, but he seemed to be ignoring them.
"We told you to give us all your belongings, or we will kill you!"
The man didn't bother about that as he continued walking, but the men who threatened him turned into stone and broke in small pieces some seconds after that.
"Why are all the weaklings so blind? I am just restraining myself to avoid provoking a ruckus not because I am weak..."
He had met a lot of bandits since he reached the western continent, but all of them met the same fate as the ones that had just assaulted him.
At that moment a mighty aura leaked out from that man's body. As an Essence God, there wasn't any pain for him even though the aura he was emanating was far stronger than his own aura.
"This... it is that piece of legacy, and it seems to be resonating... I know that my master also has one, but there shouldn't be any reaction by just being the two of us in the same world..."
Due to the resonance, he easily understood where his master was, so he felt that his journey to find his master just by fate was wasted.
"Well, this can also be considered fate, but it had been triggered because they followed me here..."
He could easily detect the two other persons with a piece of the legacy, and after sensing the one who was outside the world, he knew that he had been followed.
Moments before the resonance happened two women were outside the world looking into it.
"He seems to have come here to find his master relying on fate instead than on his own power. He is as foolish as always..."
The woman with a cold face said that while looking to the world near her.
"Sister, don't say such things from him... I feel that relying on fate is a very good method."
The other woman who had a childish expression on her face replied instantly.
"You and he are really similar in those matters. You are still a child even after more than thirty thousand years and becoming a Law God..."
When the oldest of the sisters said those words, the other seemed wronged and replied while pouting.
"I am not a child. Don't underestimate me only because you are already an Essence God."
The elder sister sighed when hearing her little sister.
"You were the one who rushed behind that fellow and almost fell in the same trap as him. If it weren't because he suddenly felt the presence of his master and changed his direction, you two would have faced a lot of trouble."
She was still quite angry for how her little sister ran off from home without saying anything to meet with her boyfriend. Although she had accepted the relationship between his little sister and that man, she didn't like that her little sister was so reckless only to meet him as soon as possible.
"I already said that I am sorry for that..."
She was stopped by her sister when it had passed quite a bit of time after her boyfriend had changed directions, so she understood that her sister wouldn't have stopped her in time if it wasn't because her boyfriend sensed the presence of his master and decided to change his plans.
Before they could speak any more, a powerful aura surrounded the elder sister.
"A resonance of the pieces of the legacy? It seems that it was true that the master of that guy was here."
She could also clearly feel the positions of the other two owners of the legacy after the resonance started.
"Sadly, it seems that he has yet to recover his power."
Sensing that one of the auras was being leaked by someone at the Grandmaster Rank, the girl could only shake her head.
