Master Of None

Chapter 1193 – 1193. Dragon Rivalry

"Jealousy does not look good on you in the least. If you had taken the time to visit the small city they are building you might be able to get a gift. It seems that the earth dragons are losing some of their pride." Current was happy to shoot a shot at the earth dragons. It was a small rivalry that they had since the water elemental dragons were known to cause trouble for the hard headed earth dragon that preferred the dry earth over the sky or rivers.

"Children, I expect you to be pleasant to each other when I arrive. I come from my seclusion to hear such rough words. We are meeting another. Be respectful." The last of the dragons walked in. There were glistening horns of light elemental mana and scales that shined through the shadows from the darkness dragon. The female dragonkin figure showed a firm but brilliant smile while rising up on t her throne. She exuded an air of purity that was well beyond Current and the earth royal dragon. "Do not allow little Current and little Terron to cause you any trouble. While I, Rise, am here they will not cause you any trouble. Welcome to the court." 

The other dragons seemed to shift slightly in their seats. Walker was sure this was because out of all of them, the light elemental mana was the purest of them. But it was not a harsh purity. The feeling was warm and healing. "I am glad to meet you as well. I am Walker. This is my champion Midnight and her Guardian Su. I can see that you do not have your guardian or champion around. Could you please point mine in the proper direction? I hope that they are able to properly meet all that came." Walker was exceptionally kind to Rise. she seemed to be the reason that most held themselves back at the moment from any further antics. The dragons may seem held back but they were at odds with each other when it came to their elemental mana, therefore, pushing them to have prideful rivalries. Walker should have expected this. 

"Of course. They are on the side room being acquainted. I have to say, golden flame heart is very rare. Little Midnight will make quick acquaintances. And the look in her guardian's eyes is splendid. I dare say that she would smash anyone to pieces with those shields. Human or not, it is impressive." Su and Midnight both gave a slight nod before Walker gave them a look to let them leave. It was his turn to act strong while they made their own connections. 

"So, you two got those pearls together? Didn't you Current? You are sneaky as always but I don't think that will be enough to prove a thing here." The fire dragon was smoking a little more and the air seemed to rise in temperature. He detested sneaky plans to build relationships outside of the dragon villages. 

"Ignus, do you really believe so little of us? We are family now you know." Current looked ready to go in to battle in a second since he felt his gift was being tossed aside. 

"If you are jealous then I can mend that. From what I understand, this is a meeting to understand one another and bring villages together. Isn't that why the two of you are related? And as the youngest member of this court, I think it best that I come showing what MY city of Genesis is capable of." Walker looked at the royal dragons who all focused on him. The shadows shifted for a moment before stabilizing and revealing a dark scaled dragonkin form. 

"You call yourself royal. You made yourself a throne. Yet I did not say you were…" The darkness dragon began to speak but fell silent seeing the darkness dwelling circlet. "How interesting. I can sense those runes from here. They are old and new. Welcome." It was simple as that to win over the darkness elemental royal dragon. He seemed easily convinced after seeing such a quality item as a welcome from Walker. "I am Mordant. I will see that village of yours in the next few years if it lasts." This was not a threat, just a relation to how long dragons lived. 

"I have one for every elemental mana here. They are not just simple circlets. As you all may know, the elemental spirits play a major role in some societies. By bringing the dwarves, elves, and humans together, we have managed to reach the true spirit crafting arts and also better rune studies. If you are able to find a spirit that can partner with you they can dwell within these bracelets and assist in purifying elemental mana." The silence in the room was louder than Walker felt it had been when he was peaking. The blood pounded in his ears even though he held himself calm. 

"Purify my mana faster? You mean that the skies will know faster speeds and stranger winds? I can flow with the currents even better? I like you. You have my vote if you can hand that treasure to me. But your small village can not stay the way it is. You will need to change it to follow the proper rules of this court." 

"Ventus, are you going to force your control on to them and try to take this away?" Current felt that the wind elemental royal dragon was making a move. 

"No. None of you will have control over the people of Genesis. No one has control over them. They are all equal. Do not make me show you the power of the mana I wield." Walker knew well he shouldn't be on the same strength level as the royal dragons. But when Fleur reacted to Walker's serious words, the natural mana pulled the royal dragon's pure mana from them. This alone was enough for them all to glare at Walker and pressure to fall on him.
