Dan and Jika couldn't believe the scene in front of them.
Jika's uncle, who both of them considered incredibly strong, had been killed with one hit and without any effort.
"Now that I dealt with the garbage, you can start replying to my questions, right?"
Yale spoke smiling, but that didn't lessen the pressure that Dan and Jika felt from him.
Although Yale didn't have any ill intention towards them, just the difference of strength was enough to put a lot of pressure.
Moreover, they had been taught since infancy that strength was equal to status and status was everything, so it was difficult for them to face someone with higher status than them.
In fact, it was a miracle that they dared to defy the rules to flee when Jika was about to be converted into a slave.
Seeing that Jika and Dan didn't speak, Yale just decided to start asking.
"I want to know more about this area, this planet, and in general about every common knowledge you have."
Yale didn't know anything about that place except what he had heard from the previous conversation between those two and Jika's uncle.
Jika and Dan were shocked by such a general request, but even they could understand the meaning of that question. After all, only an ascender would ask something like that.
They knew that ascenders were legendary figures who were at least seventh level immortals and any of them was powerful enough to have become a legend before ascending. Moreover, all of them had enormous potential.
Although they had never met one, nor had one even appeared into their country before, those who had traveled outside had come back with stories about them.
After guessing Yale's identity as an ascender, they started to explain everything to Yale.
They weren't extremely knowledgeable, but since Yale didn't have any information, even a tiny was useful.
The wasteland where Yale had been traveling was a part of their country, a very small country with just a few thousand millions of inhabitants, which Yale didn't think that was a small number for a country, but a country with that number was considered small on that planet, which made Yale think about the true size of that planet.
However, Jika and Dan only knew about the neighboring countries, so they didn't know the true size of the planet either.
Moreover, they had never heard of someone leaving the planet, in fact, they thought that Yale was crazy when he asked, but they didn't dare to say it.
Of course, Yale wasn't expecting to obtain valuable information about that topic from people with the level of Jika and Dan.
There was something that Yale had guessed but didn't dare to believe until hearing it. Most of the people of that planet reached immortality before twenty, those who needed more time like Jika were the exception.
That was the reason that their country created that slavery rule. If a lot of people suffered from it, it wouldn't have been accepted that easily.
The differences in training speed between that planet and Yale's universe was just too big.
There wasn't any need for a training method, as long as one absorbed the energy from the world, they would increase their strength and eventually become immortals, it was rather an easy process for them compared to learning Laws.
However, for what Yale heard from Dan, that was different after becoming immortals. At that point, without a proper training method, it was just too difficult to progress.
Thus, although there were more immortals than mortals in that planet, there weren't so much high leveled immortals, being most of them as the lower levels.
Ordinary immortals like Dan were just common people on that planet.
Another big difference was that when a mortal trained to obtain immortality, the age speed didn't decrease. Only after becoming an immortal the aging speed was reduced, but unless one advanced to second level immortal or the looks were already like those of an old person, the aging wouldn't stop.
As for changing the appearance freely, Yale was surprised that until becoming fifth level immortals they couldn't do it.
However, what shocked Yale the most was that on that planet only after becoming a fourth level immortal one could fly without having wings.
Back in Yale's universe, even mortals could fly after having reached a certain level, so Yale had long ago assumed that it was normal for all immortals to fly.
However, he discovered that judging other universes with the standards of his own universe was wrong.
"Alright, this information about the world should be enough for now."
Several hours had passed since Jika and Dan started to explain things to Yale. Although a lot of them were just miscellaneous things that Yale didn't care, they were good for the system's database.
"Tell me about the skills you know and any problems with your training. As thanks for having told me this information, I will help you to improve."
Jika and Dan thought that the price had been killing Jika's uncle, but Yale killed him because he disliked him, not to help them.
For Yale, sealing Jika's uncle to stop him was something easy to do, so there was no need to kill him. It was just that Jika's uncle offended Yale and showed a behavior that Yale couldn't tolerate.
"Sir, I don't know any training method. My family has one, but for people with low talent like me, there is no way to learn it. As for skills, I have never learned one. I don't even know how to wield a weapon…"
Only those who became immortals and showed talent were allowed to learn skills and how to use weapons. That was meant to prevent that someone escaped thanks to pure battle prowess after being declared a slave.
After all, the level wasn't everything, with enough battle prowess it wouldn't be impossible that a mortal who was about to reach immortality beat a weak immortal.
"I don't even know why I can't become an immortal. I was always ahead of Dan, but someday I was unable to advance anymore…"
Yale felt pity for those two, but he was interested in what kind of thing could have prevented Jika from advancing.
"Regarding skills, just ask me for any type you want to learn. It doesn't matter if they are elemental skills or weapon skills, I am proficient in all of them. As for Jika's problem…"
Before Yale could continue, he was interrupted.
"Elemental skill? Is it possible for people like us to learn them? Aren't them only for Gods and extremely powerful immortals?"
Dan couldn't believe what he had heard or else he wouldn't have dared to interrupt Yale.
"Really? In my universe is strange if an immortal didn't know them. Even mortals can train the easiest ones."
Yale didn't mind about being interrupted because he didn't think that elemental skills would be so rare.
Of course, Yale didn't know that in most universes, that was the case. It was just that the Origin path and its derivations came from Alrein's inspiration, and due to the influence of the God's Punishment, he was mistakenly enlightened about how to become a God instead of how to become an immortal.
Thus, he made the Origin Path, which relied a lot on mastering elements, which originally was extremely hard even for powerful immortals.
Of course, all the elements were far weaker than those that a true God could control, but Alrein at that time didn't know about it, so he used the word God to name the levels.
It was only later when he noticed that he was wrong and those were just immortal levels and that a God and an immortal were different things.
The Origin Path made the training speed slower, but in exchange, those who trained it could control the elements, which was a great advantage later on.
Of course, a lot of people died practicing it due to being unable to become immortals.
Real Gods didn't rely on Laws or Essences, they themselves turned into an incarnation of their powers.
In fact, of all the elements that Yale controlled, only the Ice Element he created had reached the minimum threshold of a Minor God.
Although that wasn't a requirement to make a breakthrough, those who had an element at such level would have an easier time making a breakthrough to Minor God than someone who didn't.
Of course, anything could reach that level, not only the elements. Even a trait of a personality or an emotion could be used.
However, even having so many choices, only a minority managed to reach the minimum threshold to improve the chances of succeeding in the breakthrough.
After Yale spoke, he decided to create a small ice wolf to show it to Dan and Jika. Although Yale considered it small, it was still more than enough for having ten persons riding it.
"Incredible…"
Dan could only say that word while Jika couldn't even speak. They didn't believe that the person who had saved them was so impressive.
"Well, let's return to Jika's case."
Yale put his hand on Jika's forehead and closed his eyes. However, he opened them quickly.
"Strange. Let's test it in this way."
Yale activated the Celestial Knowledge, which shocked Dan and Jika again. Both of them had heard of Celestial Knowledge but just on legends.
However, before they could speak, Yale did it.
"Girl, you are cursed."
