Master Of None

"Do you really think that the albino glowing mole egg will be able to find a safe home?" Su was worried that it could end up like Onyx's egg which had been forced to stay dormant for years and years due to the fact that it had not received the proper light elemental mana to hatch. 

"Yes. We are heroes and if we need to can use all of our power to make sure it gets the best family we can find." Walker was sure that using their titles this way was in no way selfish. If they had the title and used it to gain fame and fortune while not helping others it would go against not only the title but their morals. 

On the other hand, using their titles to help a creature find a safe family where it would not struggle to survive in an environment that it was not perfectly suited for was better. With their backing, it would be able to not only find the elemental mana it needed to thrive but also a partner that could stand beside it for its' entire life. This was just like the party with Midnight and Onyx. 

"Brother, are you sure that it can not be our sibling?" Onyx tried again. He and Midnight wanted to be the older sister and older brother to yet another monster. But if Walker was to use the blood contract with this egg things would get much more complicated. 

"If I use my skill on it then yes you would be an older brother and Midnight would have another little sibling. I know that's exciting. But look at the place we are in our journey. We will be going somewhere that this little mole would be able to thrive in. The dwarven kingdom relies on rare ores and crystals to make their world shaking gear." 

Midnight and Onyx were listening intently to Walker speak, thewy hung on every word he spoke. "They will not only have a constant need for a mole that can search out rare ores but also be able to provide fresh and new food for it. It would be a beneficial relationship. Not only this but they would both be able to see the value in each other making their bind stronger. If they stay with us we will not be able to give it the proper attention at all times because of our travels." 

Midnight and Onyx both started to think about the situation in this way and came to their own conclusion. "You are saying that if we were to act on a whim and gain a sibling that it could feel unloved?" Onyx said this as the culmination of his and Midnight's thoughts. 

"That is one possibility, another is that the little mole could not grow to its full potential and always feel like it is weaker. I know you feel this way at times onyx and it makes me feel poorly as well." Walker was right out and open with them. Onyx still felt weak compared to Midnight and the others due to him being younger and less experience in battle. He had been able to help recently but he was not sure that he was doing enough. 

"Sister says she is alright with having a good person raise the little mole. But she says they will still need to call us big brother and big sister." Onyx had made the deal with Midnight that they would still be considered the siblings of the mole and would make Walker visit the future family no matter what.

"Of course. Did you two think that we all wouldn't be friends with someone who could be good enough to properly raise a soon to be family member? Even though they may be part of a different family they are just an extension of our family tree." Walker placed a hand each on Onyx and Midnight's heads to show them that they had perfectly understood. 

' The skill soothing touch has been taken from the family head system. The skill soothing touch has been learned through user actions. 

Soothing touch- 1 mana cost

The mana gathers on the hands of the user causing them to have a perfectly even mana flow covering their hands. This mana flow resonates with the target's mana and causes it to calm as well. Skills trained after the target has been affected by this skill will be easier to use along with strengthened understanding.'

Walker blinked in surprise. He had never heard of a skill like this but felt it was one of the best he could have gotten. At first glance, it was not much of a skill at all. If it just calmed mana within someone it would just have a comforting effect. But with the fact that it made skills easier to use in training and even had the chance to help someone understand the skills they used, made this skill priceless. 

"You gained another skill again, didn't you?" Remey said this with a flat tone recognizing Walker's face. 

"He definitely did. He only smiles like that when he gets a good skill or reads a good appraisal. He just had it when he looked at that mole egg." Gil was also seeing the same thing as Remey and didn't even hesitate to speak as if he wasn't able to hear them. 

"Please, you two should be more respectful to the leader. He also looks this way when he sees his bed at the end of the day." Walker had not expected teasing from Su as well. He was completely defeated. 

Walker glared at the three teasing him, "If you three are going to be mean I will only tell Midnight and Onyx the awesome skill I gained. They will appreciate it." Walker ignore the three and proceeded to do just that as he started to seal up the hole to the natural cave they had just come from.
