Last Wish System-Chapter 578: Yale's Crazy Plan
The Emperor was speechless when he heard those words. He was unable to process that information.
Given how many universes existed, it was unbelievable that he just picked the universe from someone that even the Smuggler Association feared.
Moreover, it was even more unbelievable that the people he chose to catch were the family of that person that he couldn't offend.
"You don't believe it? By the way, Aiwai is my big sister."
Yale immediately changed to his half-beast form.
Seeing Yale's transformation, the Emperor finally noticed that Yale wasn't joking, so everything was true.
Moreover, moments ago, he spoke about Aiwai in a way that he was sure that had angered Yale a lot.
"I... I didn't know! Had I known about this, I would have never ever tried to invade that universe or harm your family. I haven't done anything yet, please forgive me!"
The Emperor discarded the thought of battling against Yale and kneeled immediately.
Moreover, he told the truth. Given his personality, he would have never dared to provoke someone that he couldn't kill, so he wouldn't have targeted Yale's universe if he had known that they were related to someone that even the Smuggler Association feared.
In fact, not even the Smuggler Association knew that Yale belonged to that universe.
If they had known, they would have sold that information to some Great Gods that would gladly destroy all the universes planning to invade Alrein's universe to win Yale's favor.
"So, what if you didn't know? If you accidentally kill my family, do you think I would forgive you because you just didn't know? However, it is true that you haven't done it yet, so I will just punish you, but you won't die today."
The Emperor sighed in relief. He feared the punishment, but as long as he wasn't killed and never dared to target Yale's family, he believed that he still had chances to fulfill his plans with some other universe.
Of course, Yale was planning to do something far worse than killing the Emperor.
It was a crazy idea, but he believed that even if it didn't work, it wouldn't matter. After all, he didn't care about what would happen to that universe, so he didn't worry about the potential aftereffects his plan could have.
"I will accept any punishment."
The Emperor wanted to add: as long as it doesn't kill me. However, he didn't have the guts to say it.
"Your will doesn't matter. I want to punish you, and you will be punished. You can't even die without my permission, so don't try to avoid punishment by committing suicide."
The Emperor was scared to death when thinking about the punishment, but he decided to endure no matter what kind of wicked punishment Yale was planning to impart on him.
Just when Yale was about to speak, a spear pierced thought the old man's head, which seemed to shock everyone except Yale.
The Emperor saw the subordinate who did it and decided that if he managed to survive, he would kill him, but he thought that no one would survive after that.
He didn't understand why his subordinated were so foolish, but the truth was that it was the Emperor's fault for making them believe that the Emperor was invincible.
The Emperor expected Yale to be angry, but instead of that, Yale just smiled, and the dead old man at his side resurrected as if he was never pierced by that spear.
Yale's incarnation had been tracking all the people on the area, so Yale put Absolute Protection before the attack happened, so everything was nullified.
Absolute Protection was just a basic application of time control, a skill developed by Yale far before reincarnating, but for someone who didn't know anything about time control, it seemed like a miracle.
"You don't need to worry, no one can die here without my permission. Haven't I said it just a moment ago?"
Yale knew that his words would affect the mindset of the Emperor greatly. Making the Emperor feel absolute despair in front of Yale's power was a crucial part of the plan.
At the same time, Yale turned the man who attacked into an ice statue. A single ninth level immortal couldn't stop Yale's power. If it weren't because of the vast numbers of ninth level immortals on that universe, Yale wouldn't need so much planning to wipe out all his enemies there.
The Emperor was really scared after seeing Yale resurrecting a dead person. That surpassed by far the Emperor's knowledge of Gods.
That spear had even destroyed the old man's soul, so it should have been a permanent death that not even Gods should be able to resurrect or reincarnate, but Yale did it, which made the Emperor start to understand why even Great god wanted to win Yale's favor.
"You can resurrect the dead..."
The Emperor muttered unconsciously, which made Yale grin.
"Of course, it is pretty easy if they die in front of me. For those dead long ago, it is a bit harder but not impossible. In all the universes, there are only two persons capable of doing this."
Yale was lying because he couldn't resurrect people with his power, but he didn't care since he was just scaring the Emperor and wasn't planning to try to resurrect someone in front of him.
The old man who died inside the Absolute Protection to return unharmed was also shocked by what happened to him, but he decided to remain in silence.
"In fact, there is a little exception in this place that makes it even easier, do you want to hear it? Hearing it will be the start of your punishment. What is what you fear more? Death? Having your existence erased? Losing all the people important to you? No, what you fear more is that everything you accomplished disappeared in an instant."
Even if he died or was erased, the Emperor believed that what he had done was important enough that at least everyone would remember that some did it.
"All the living beings of this universe, listen to my words!"
Yale's voice appeared in heads of all living beings of the universe.
"This universe doesn't exist; it has never existed. This is just a dreamland based on a real universe! A dreamland created to show a future that never happened. I came from the outside to wake up the person who is having this nightmare. Thus, this universe will cease to exist."
The face of the Emperor changed when he heard that.
"You listened to it, fake Emperor. Why do you think I am taking everything with so much calm? This universe doesn't' exist. It has never been a threat to my family. I won't kill you today because you died long ago. Your plan to kill your father and take his position failed, and you died instead. That is the real story of this universe."
The body of the Emperor started to fade while Yale spoke, but that was just an illusion that Yale was casting because everything he said was just a big lie.
[Congratulations on obtaining: Lie Divinity.]
Yale's Minor Lie Divinity was upgraded by how he managed to cheat a whole universe to think that they really didn't exist. After all, Yale's illusion was also covering the whole universe, and everyone felt as if they were really disappearing.
[Congratulations on obtaining: Illusion Divinity.]
The Minor Illusion Divinity was upgraded after a few seconds of casting the illusion that covered the whole universe.
Although it was an illusion, the Emperor never thought about that possibility because he had awakened the Celestial Knowledge, so he was immune to illusions.
However, the truth was that only applied to illusions, the Minor Illusion Divinity, and superior worked differently.
It was impossible to become a Minor God without having awakener Celestial Knowledge first, so no one should be able to fall into illusions, which would make the Illusion Divinity worthless for them.
However, the reality was different. The Minor Illusion Divinity could only be countered by another Minor Illusion Divinity or stronger, and the same applied to the next levels.
Normal illusions just put the person who received them into a trance while experimenting fake things, but illusions cast with the Minor Illusion divinity made the illusions appear in the real world, although they were still just illusion.
However, the Illusion Divinity could make the illusions affect their surroundings as if they were real, and things that happened inside the illusion could have some effect on the reality. As for the Great Illusion Divinity, it could even create a fake reality where everything happening there would reflect into reality.
If Yale's plan were executed by someone with Great Lie Divinity and Great Illusion Divinity, maybe everyone in the universe would just self-erase by believing that they didn't exist.
However, that wasn't Yale's plan, nor he knew about that method.
The old man was also shocked by Yale's words, but he didn't see his body disappear like the rest of the people.
Yale and Tofesh came from outside, so it was normal, but he didn't understand why it was the same.
"It is time to wake up."
Yale touched the old man's forehead and copied his memories since he planned to use them to turn them into a nightmare that served to temple that old man and prevent him from going from the wrong path.
Yale closed his eyes before his consciousness crossed the spacetime, and the system notified him.
[Congratulations on obtaining: Minor Time Divinity.]
