Master Of None

Walker and Su chatted idly while they walked back to the mansion. Neither of them had realized how late it had gotten. The sun had long set. "I can't believe that healer Laura dragged me around all day. I have never been worked so hard when we came to the cathedral, I swear." The complaints weren't too real but Walker had decided to whine just a little. 

"The first time I met her she had been healing people for ten hours straight without any rest. She is very dedicated. But she told me she had the mana regeneration passive skill. Apparently, her family often has it and even used to have a flame wizard many years ago. Now she is a healer and the first to cast magic in some years. She takes a lot of pride in what she does." This was news to Walker but it truly explained where a deep drive would come from. 

"Oh holy lord, are they still forging?" Walker heard the forge hammer and Midnight growling slightly as soon as they went in the front gate of the mansion. 

"The alchemy lab is putting out smoke too. Did you expect anything different?" The small laugh from Su told Walker all he needed to know. She had completely expected the mansion to fully be awake. "You know Lisa is awake too making something for an order or display. She told me just the other day that she wants to have fifty finished dresses for her own store in Genesis." 

"I will have to make sure that actually gets built to her specifications then. Actually. I have been waiting to check these scrolls from that man named Alabastor. He said he gave them to us so that he won't need to be bothered again." Walker took the scrolls from his storage as they walked in to the mansion and went toward the dining room to eat something before heading off to rest. 

"I have been wondering. He gave you different versions when he threw them to you, right?" This was a very interesting topic since the scrolls influenced spatial magic that could teleport the party across distances. 

"Let me read the all around appraisals." Walker pulled three of them out that had different patterns on them. 

'Small space portal scroll- 1 mana activation cost

The user of this scroll activates the stored magic skill, small teleport. The user is solely teleported randomly ten miles away. This can only teleport the user and no one else. It is an extremely fast activation that creates a space portal in front of the user. 

High group teleport- 3 mana activation cost

The user and those directed by them are instantly teleported to a specified location. This can teleport up to ten living beings. The location must be known by the user or the user has to have traveled there before. There are exceptions depending on the user that activates the teleport. The restrictions are removed for the creator of the scroll.'

"The last one looks a lot larger. What does it say?" The excitement was all too plain in Su's voice. She had become a lot more interested than Walker had expected her to become. 

'Grand area teleport- 10 mana activation cost

The entire area around the user is teleported to the specified destination. The area must be marked with stones with the depicted rune carvings. The space inside these four runes will be teleported along with the space below and above them. The space will be teleported to a similarly marked out space. The skill is best used to teleport large items, homes, creatures, and even small mountains. This scroll requires a ten minute activation time to secure the locations for teleportation. Living beings within the space can also be teleported safely.'

There was a stunned silence after Walker read it out loud. "There's only one of these…" Walker could only mumble this while staring and rereading the all around appraisal in awe. He couldn't imagine they had something so spectacular in their hands. 

"Should we save this? Or should we use this for teleporting the mansion to Genesis?" Su had already spoken about what Walker was thinking. The party could teleport their mansion to Genesis and then add on to it, even more, to create a bigger forge and alchemy lab if they desired. It would also bring the entire garden with them so it would be even better to expand there since they could not here. 

"I will set up the runes but we don't need to use it if we decide not to. The picture of the runes are very simple and just need to be matched with mana from the one carving and using the scroll." Walker was not going to rush in to it but he had a feeling that the party would decide as a whole to teleport the mansion. Genesis would soon become the hub for multiple kingdoms and they would be very focused on developing it. They were hero title holders and fostering relations between other races was one of their focuses as such. 

There was the potential to use this to escape danger as well. But Walker knew that if there was danger he wouldn't flee for any reason. He and the party were not cowards that would run away and abandon those in need. It would not only insult their title but most likely lose their title forever. 

"I think moving the mansion will be a good idea. Lisa will have a shop near her home. The forge and the alchemy guild will be nearby. And even if he hasn't said it, Gil wants to start a hunters' club." Su made some good points but it was a decision that everyone needed to make together. The entire family would need to have time to discuss and vote.
