Yale felt like if he had taken out a burden of his mind.
As long as Lar was happy, he would consider that he paid his debt, it didn't matter if she could remember her previous life or not.
Anyway, Yale didn't believe that it was impossible to recover Lar's memories even if she awakened as a sword spirit.
If after recovering her memories, Lar asked to become a human again, Yale would then look for a method, but it was useless to worry more about that matter since it was a fact that Lar would awaken as a sword spirit.
"Well, let's put aside the matter of this sword. You are also interested in learning how to make weapons, right?"
Yale nodded before replying.
"Indeed, I am also very interested since Tofesh taught me a bit."
The chief knew that Tofesh taught the basics to Yale, but that was all. The basics were just the basics, and those weren't important in the chief's eyes.
"Very well. You passed the test, so you will be able to learn all our secrets to make weapons, but remember, it is impossible to explain this to others no matter if you want. Well, maybe if you become a God first, it wouldn't be impossible."
The Weapon Spirit Tribe was very serious about protecting their knowledge, but they knew that their methods might not work for a God.
"What was the test? I didn't notice anything."
Yale knew that he had passed it, but he still didn't exactly what the test was.
"It was an illusion, but I guess that you already know that. You want to know the content of the illusion, right?"
Yale nodded.
"In that illusion, you experience the life of a weapon. The good parts and the bad ones. Those with Celestial Knowledge have a free pass, but those without needed to endure that illusion without losing themselves. Those who fail are turned into real weapons, turning that illusion into something real, although they won't remember anything about their lives even if they manage to awaken."
Yale felt his scalp numb after hearing about the trial because it was really scary.
Although he couldn't be affected, he was sure that a lot of people failed to overcome that illusion and were turned into weapons.
"Enough from this. Show me something you have created."
The chief was impatient to see how much skilled Yale was because he had impressed him a lot, and thus, the chief had high expectations.
"This sword was originally made by Tofesh with my help, but I forged it again more than once afterward."
The only weapon that Yale felt that was worthy enough to show to the chief was the Essence Slayer Sword.
"Your friend told me about this weapon, but you changed it a lot. Very interesting, it is easy to see why Awat went to receive you personally. I admit that shapeshifting weapons with this versatility are very rare."
In the whole tribe, the only one who had an original form similar to the Essence Slayer Sword was the butler that received Yale.
"Really? I thought it was just a normal step to follow."
Only someone like Yale who was proficient using a lot of different weapons would have that kind of thought. Anyone else would just be happy with the weapon they liked.
"Not normal at all. The versatility of this kind of weapon is excellent, but it is extremely hard upgrading it and letting it develop a spirit. It is already impressive that you managed to upgrade this weapon to its current state."
The chief was pleased with the weapon that Yale had shown to him.
It was an unorthodox weapon, but for someone as experienced as the chief, it was more interesting in that way.
"Alright, I will ask Awat to help you improve it. You already know him, and he seems to accept you. I am the best in the tribe, but he is only second to me, and regarding this kind of versatile weapon, he is definitely the best."
Although almost everyone in the Weapon Spirit Tribe was proficient in creating weapons, not everyone had the same level of skill.
The chief only taught those with a lot of talent like Tofesh.
Yale also fell in that category, but the chief felt that Awat was better to teach him.
Awat had never even spoken with someone who wasn't from the Weapon Spirit Tribe until Yale appeared, so there wasn't anyone who had had the chance to learn from him.
In fact, not even inside the tribe, Awat had taught something to others.
Although he looked like a butler, he was aloof and didn't like to serve others unless he approved them. The only person in the whole tribe that Awat respected was the chief.
"Awat, come here."
At the moment that the chief spoke, Awat appeared.
"Look at this weapon."
Awat smiled when seeing the Essence Slayer Sword.
"Great! I knew that you were like my master. Come with me, I will share with you everything. I am sure that my master would have taught you everything if you had met him before he died."
Even the chief had difficulties to hide his shock after seeing how Awat was acting. If he hadn't known from before that Awat seemed to have taken a liking for Yale, he would have thought that he fell into an illusion.
"Thank you for your help."
Yale didn't know how strange it was for Awat to act so friendly because he had seen him acting like that from the start.
"Also thank you to you, chief. If someday you need my help for something, just ask. I don't think I can help you a lot with my current power, but as long as it is possible, I will help."
Yale let go a huge burden thanks to the chief, so he wanted to repay that favor someday. Moreover, he also got to learn how to improve the Essence Slayer Sword thanks to him, so Yale felt grateful towards the chief.
There was no doubt that the chief was merciless and used evil ways on his enemies, but he was a great guy as long as you weren't his enemy.
Yale started to walk through the Weapon Spirit Tribe following Awat, whose smile was leaving everyone in the tribe baffled.
Awat was famous for being serious and antisocial, so it was really a baffling scene for those who knew him.
"This is my house. You can live here, there is more than enough space. I know that you are talented, but you will need several years if you want to reach my master's level."
Saying that Yale would just need several years was already being extremely optimistic, but Awat had high hopes on Yale's performance.
"If I will need several years, may the two wolves that came with me also live here? They are too young, and I can't leave them alone."
Usually, that request would be rejected immediately by anyone else, but Awat wasn't anyone, and his mood was great.
"You are right. I will ask someone to put an illusion protect spell on them and let them enter. The illusion spell activated automatically each time someone new enters our tribe, and I doubt that they could endure it."
For Awat, Yale was someone like his master's little brother given how similar he felt that they were.
Everyone in the tribe missed their masters, so it wasn't strange that they acted friendly to those similar to their masters, but Awat's master was just too peculiar, so it was strange that someone was like him.
With Awat's helps, Jika and Dan entered the tribe without problems, but since they hadn't entered by the proper way, they could only move inside the house belonging to Awat, which wouldn't be a problem since Awat had modified the space inside, so despite the house's looks, inside the size was so big that Yale wondered if Awat really needed so much space just for himself.
The space inside the house was like an independent world, but although Awat was the one who moved it inside the house, it had been created by his master. That was the only thing that Awat managed to keep when his master threw him away at the last moment to save him.
Fortunately, he had been in charge of the entrance of that dimension, so when he was thrown away, he kept with himself.
Everyone in the tribe would be considered a valuable weapon by almost anyone in that universe, so they all had been thrown away by their masters before their deaths to prevent that their enemies could steal them.
The dimension had open spaces, so it was good enough for the young wolves. Of course, it was fully equipped to create weapons, and training there wasn't an issue either.
OF course, Yale could enter or leave at will just crossing the door, so he didn't plan to be there all the time.
After all, he was very curious about the lifestyle of the members of that tribe.
That same day, Yale started to learn about how to improve his weapon thanks to Awat's detailed explanations, but he didn't know that at the same time, the tribe disappeared from the world.
They were a nomad tribe, but they didn't move themselves, they displaced the whole tribe through space-time, so they were impossible to find unless they wanted to be discovered or the other party had an incredible control of space and time.
