After an hour of battle, Lar fell to the ground exhausted; she surpassed her limits thinking only to continue the fight to help Yale. The Sword Bloodline was powerful, but overusing it could be harmful.
"You don't need to overwork yourself that much."
Yale used a bit of Time Healing on Lar to help her to recover, but he didn't plan to continue the battle at that moment. After all, the Sword Bloodline was undoubtedly related to the Sword Essence, so even if his guess about the other legacy bloodlines were wrong, it was still dangerous to overuse the Sword Bloodline.
Time Healing was strong, but Yale feared that if Lar over exhausted herself too much for using the Sword Bloodline and ended up harming herself, he would be unable to heal her completely.
Of course, that was also just his guess, but he didn't dare to let Lar try the outcome because he didn't want to sacrifice Lar to be a bit faster in meeting Aiwai again; if he wanted to sacrifice her, Yale would have just used the first method and killed her directly.
Although Yale seemed to be quite cold towards her on the outside most of the time, he cared about her. At least, she had turned into someone who Yale didn't want to be harmed after being together for such a long time.
"Your healing is perfect. I can continue the battle now!"
Yale patted Lar's head which made her stop as she blushed; Yale already knew that it was one of the best methods to made Lar stop, and Lar liked it, so he didn't need to think too much before doing it.
"Stop, it is enough for today. Trying to rush the recreation of the Sword Bloodline won't help me to improve faster, this is a slow process. If you want to battle a bit more, the battle should be without using your bloodline. We can battle again like we usually do after I meditate a bit about our previous battle."
Lar nodded, she didn't mind suffering for helping Yale, but if Yale didn't need it, she didn't like to suffer without reason.
Yale sat and started to control a bit of blood and tried to use his recently acquired understanding to make it work like the Sword Bloodline.
Yale's meditation lasted three hours, and the result was a failure, but Yale already expected that. The first try helped him to obtain experience; it couldn't be considered a slow method if he had managed to accomplish it on the first day.
"As expected this method is so slow. Well, Lar, if you want some normal spar, we can have it now."
Lar was extremely happy to battle again, but she didn't use her bloodline just as Yale requested. Yale used his comprehended Sword Essence in that battle hoping to help Lar to grasp something, but her realm was still too low and comprehending something was difficult to her even with some guidance.
Yale's comprehension of the Sword Essence wasn't too high. Thus, the guidance couldn't be compared with the one Liye gave to that guy in that fragment of memory.
That training routine repeated every day, but every time, Yale just let Lar use her bloodline one time until getting exhausted; afterward, she only battled normally.
It wasn't until a month and a half later when Yale finally started to have a bit of success; he had a long way to recreate the Sword Bloodline completely, but at least he had taken the first step.
In that time, Yale had also improved his overall power thanks to the comprehension he had obtained of the Sword Essence which was used in his battles against Lar, but as he expected, he improved a bit more, but that was at slower speed and ended up stopping completely after some time. He would need to obtain some more understanding to obtain another huge boost in strength.
"Name: Yale
Age: 15
Origin Level: 27
Origin Points: 6546/6546"
"Vitality: 6612
Strength: 6757
Agility: 6729
Intelligence: 7000
Wisdom: 7000
Dexterity: 6598"
Yale stopped to try improving his stats after he exhausted the effects of his comprehended Sword Essence because his tiny bit improvements meant nothing compared with those boosts, so he preferred to spend time trying to comprehend some more Sword Essence.
Moreover, he also felt that understanding a bit more of Sword Essence would also help him in recreating the Sword Bloodline, so there was even more motivation in doing it.
However, understanding some more Sword Essence wasn't easier with his current strength even having the Condensed Sword Essence.
Yale's fame had skyrocketed in Sword City in that time thanks to his victory against Selenia; his fame even began to spread in the surrounding towns. He even obtained a nickname due to his display of flying swords using his Spiritual Sense, and his miracles battling against someone who was more than one rank stronger than him.
The nickname he obtained was Sword Mage, and there were already more people who called him by that name instead of Liye which was the name he told in Sword City.
Yale personally liked the nickname because he liked to combine magic with swordsmanship although that wasn't the reason for the nickname because Spiritual Sense wasn't magic. However, most people related Spiritual Sense to the Magus Path, so they ended creating that nickname.
