Yale started to pursue the matriarch, but his speed was far slower than a mermaid at the Sage Rank like her .
"Why is that kid is following me? It is a trap . "
The matriarch noticed that Yale was following her, but she didn't dare to lower her guard .
She didn't consider Yale as a threat, but she feared that he was just a bait to attract her and let Aiwai attack .
Yale guessed that the matriarch would think like that, but that was on Yale's benefit because even with the injuries of her body, the matriarch was still too strong for a frontal confrontation .
"Even if you run fast, you are slower than my attacks . "
The attack that Yale used was the spell Thunderbolt that was devastating in the water of the ocean, and the matriarch was unable to avoid .
However, the attack only stopped her a bit and didn't provoke any major injuries to her body .
"You are dreaming if you plan to kill me just with that!"
The matriarch was at the Sage Rank, so there was no way that just a bit of electricity would kill her even if that would be lethal for a mortal . However, what the matriarch didn't understand was how Yale managed to avoid getting harmed by his own thunderbolt since he was also in the water .
Moreover, both of them were separated by more than two hundred meters, and she didn't know how the thunderbolt managed to travel correctly towards her .
The reason was in how Yale was managing the water through Water Control . Yale had read a lot of books learning quite a few things from them, and he was applying something that he had read .
Usually, everyone thought that water was perfect for conducting electricity and using a thunder element spell inside the water was a suicide move as the caster would also get harmed once the electricity appeared .
However, in one of the books that Yale had read, the author said that not all the water conducted electricity, but that author was unable to identify the reasons for that as he only discovered it by coincidence .
In the end, it seemed that no one believed that author and he appeared in the recompilation of Stupid Affirmations of Weaklings that Yale read years ago in the Roanmad Clan's library; it was a book to mock about such people, but Yale didn't feel that those were stupid affirmations at all .
Yale was right in thinking like that because he had already confirmed that the theory about water and electricity was correct . If the water didn't have impurities it wouldn't conduct electricity, but that wasn't the normal state of the water on the environment, so it was usually mistaken as that water always conducted it; even the water created from water spells wasn't completely pure . Of course, anyone with enough understanding of the Water Law would also know about that .
However, with Water Control, Yale managed to remove all the impurities of the layer of water covering his body ensuring that he wouldn't be affected by his own attack because he wasn't sure if his attack method would work .
Yale wasn't trying to harm the matriarch with that attack because he was just trying to confirm if he could use that method for attacking .
The method Yale thought was about creating a path of pure water with normal water in the middle to use it to direct the attack towards the matriarch .
However, the matriarch was in constant movement, so the path of pure water would miss the target unless Yale predicted where the matriarch would be at the moment when he launched his attack .
Thus, Yale was trying to use the Time Law to look into some seconds in the future to aim correctly . At that start, he wasn't sure if he would be able to do it, but it turned out to be easier than he expected .
"Congratulations, the Time Law reached a new major threshold after enlightenment . Current understanding 1% . "
After attacking a few more times with that method until he got used to it, the system notified Yale that he had reached a threshold on the Time Law . However, Yale wasn't surprised at all by that because at that moment he was looking to some seconds into the future without any difficulty, and he had already guessed that since the Time Law was the first Law in which he obtained some insight, it was already near the threshold .
In fact, Yale wasn't looking at the present at all and moved just by looking the future .
A strategy like that would be dangerous in a normal battle because Yale was only aware of the future, but since he didn't need to worry for any melee battle at that moment, he focused on shooting his thunderbolts towards the matriarch .
"I got enough practice . Time to get serious . "
All those thunderbolts were just tests, so Yale wasn't shocked that those attacks didn't truly harm the matriarch, but those attacks also had the effect of making the matriarch used to them and didn't even bother when a thunderbolt hit her, so she didn't even stop when getting hit .
Yale had devised a new skill as his real attack towards the matriarch called Thunder Spear, that was formed from a million normal thunderbolts . Of course, the cost was also a million times higher, but a normal thunderbolt merely needed five Origin Points, so it wasn't a big problem .
Yale felt a strange sensation while preparing his new skill he felt that the skill would be far more powerful than he thought it would be .
However, he didn't get distracted by that and cast the Thunder Spear for the first time . Yale gave his all in that attack .
"Thunder Spear: Creates a giant spear of lightning . Thunder Law . Can be used by controlling the Thunder Law . The deficiency of control of the law can be substituted with Origin Points . A full power strike without relying upon any power of the Thunder Law will require 5M Origin Points . With the current understanding of the Law, the cost will be 5M Origin Points . "
The description of a new Law Skill appeared in Yale's mind, but he although he managed to sense a bit of the Thunder Law at that moment, the skill was powered purely by Origin Points .
In fact, Yale hadn't just used the new skill he had devised because he was combining it with Water Control and the Time Freeze to ensure that the attack would hit . Moreover, he was also using archery and swordsmanship, although he did it unconsciously .
That could be considered a combination of Yale's powers and the strongest attack he could use inside the ocean .
The attack hit the target in an instant which made it impossible to notice, but the Thunder Spear was covered with Archer Qi and Sword Qi . The capability of making the weapon qi appear at any place even if it didn't have any relation with that kind of weapon was the proof of having stepped in the sage stage; Yale advanced to the sage stage in Swordsmanship and Archery simultaneously when he launched that attack .
The matriarch who was already disregarding Yale's attacks was hit directly as the attack was far too quick and in the decisive moment, her body was affected by Time Freeze, which lasted less than a second, but that was more than enough .
The body of the matriarch was completely black, and her face was as scary as that of a monster because she had lost most of the skin and all her remaining black teeth could be easily seen .
Yale was completely exhausted since he gave his all in that attack . However, he took out the Space-time Judgment Sword and pointed it towards the matriarch, which seemed like a victory pose .
"I will kill you!"
The matriarch lost her temper completely at that moment because of the huge damage that she had received and how she saw Yale mocking off with that victory pose .
Although she could survive to that degree of injuries because she was a Sage Rank expert, it was difficult for her to ensure that she would be able to recover her body to her previous state .
At that moment, the matriarch didn't mind in Aiwai appeared to kill her, but she wanted to kill Yale first; her mind was clouded, and she attacked like a beast .
Yale didn't have any time to defend when the matriarch started to attack, and he remained in the same position when the matriarch reached him .
The matriarch used all her remaining strength to attack Yale, and her speed was truly fearsome, but her attack never reached Yale .
The matriarch thought in just breaking Yale's sword while attacking, so she didn't try to avoid it and face it head on, which wasn't a wise move, but the hatred clouded her mind .
The result was that although Yale had no strength left and there was no way he could beat the matriarch, the matriarch lost in comparing the toughness of her skull to the toughness of Yale's sword as Yale had planned .
The matriarch died impaling herself in the Space-time Judgement Sword . Any other weapon wouldn't be able to endure the matriarch's attack without Yale using his energy to reinforce it, but the Space-time Judgment Sword was a divine weapon, and there was no way someone at the Sage Rank could break it .
"Killing you with just my power it is impossible, but I can force you to kill yourself . "
