Master Of None

Chapter 1149 – 1149. Worries

Once they had spoken about the plans that had already been made, Walker was more than impressed by what had been done. There had even been a plan formatted so that alchemy, battles, and crafting would be able to use the coliseum. It revolved around the dwarves taking the lead with their golems to change the venue through the week of competitions. It would be a lot of work but truly show off the strength and efficiency that the city could function after. 

The merchants were in an uproar. They were bulking up already and sending out new orders to get everything they needed ready as fast as possible. It would sound bad since they seemed to be rushed and ill tempered, yet, it was becoming positive. Many people found jobs and quests where there had not been some before. It was turning out to be a major benefit for the people coming to live. 

This was also something that spurred everyone to build more efficiently. Crafters were making large moves to create the parts and pieces they needed. This spawned even more orders for merchants along with quests for adventurers. It was also a major recruitment for the guard. They needed the new recruits and would be able to have the new members prepared to get experience when the events came around. It was just enough time to train them. 

The conversations had gone for some time and Walker had been sure to set up a few things for the water elves when they arrived. However, Alma and the forest elf queen took the lead letting him and the others take their leave. It was one thing that Walker found himself thankfully for. Unfortunately, Neil and the other two dragonkin had decided to leave Genesis immediately. They too had to report back and had stayed a little longer than they expected. 

Neil had left off saying that he would be reporting everything to Adair and Current. This was good since Walker was looking forward to seeing them again. He felt that the dragons so far had held to their traditions but would relax if given the chance. If they managed to embrace the ideals and values of Genesis then they just might be able to bond with every race. The only thing that Walker worried about was that the dragons may attempt to get involved with the demons. 

The possibility that this would occur was very small. Yet, if it did, then no one would be able to control the events that would occur. It was clear that this demon lord was powerful enough to do things that others could not. The sin title holders were not as powerful though. But that did not mean they were not dangerous. If Lust had managed to control a single dragon then that was more than a walking army by itself. So far they had been lucky not to face a sin title holder outright and always had some advantage in some way. 

These thoughts rushed through Walker's mind as he had fallen asleep. Some were worries he had and others were hopes. By the time he woke up, he had managed to dream of many things both good and bad. It appeared that Midnight had shared his feelings and dreams. They were both going to the royal dragon court and would need to show strength that they were not sure of yet. 

"You both seem like you should go back to bed. That is what happens when you go out and throw yourself in to yet another battle. You are both staying here and resting until I say we are ready to leave." The attitude Su had when she met the pair for breakfast was strong. She would not travel with them if they were distracted and tired. It would bring unnecessary risk and show of weakness. 

"I will be fine. There are some things we need to get done today anyways. I need to speak to the wandering blacksmith for gifts for the other royal dragons. I have the rouge pearl for Current but I want to bring something with each elemental affinity for the others. I was thinking of a true spirit forged bracelet." Walker had this idea while he was falling asleep and ran with it. 

"The royal dragon's value elemental purity right? If that's the case a dwelling item would be ideal. They could work to bond with an elemental spirit and increase their understanding of their elements that way. The spirit would also grow with them through the years since they have a very long lifetime." Su saw the benefits immediately and felt that Walker was on to something good. 

"We also have most of the elemental spirits around us to help. Plus, there are plenty running about the city that we can ask for assistance. I bet they will help if Fleur comes out." Walker knew that Fleur was awake and not resting after he had slept for so long himself. She seemed restless which meant that she was most likely bored or regaining her natural mana and wanted to see the hustle and bustle of the city's preparations. 

"Well, since you are doing that I will be at the cathedral. Alice and I have training that needs to be done. I hope to have another new skill soon." There was excitement on Su's face. She had been working hard and believed she was close to getting the skill she wanted. It made Walker feel that he had missed something interesting but he let Su hold on to the secret. It would be more fun for her to show it off when she had understood whatever the skill was. 

"I will need to stop by there and check on Onyx. I bet he has been working too hard." Su's face dropped and she decided to let Walker in on what Onyx had recently purchased.
