Master Of None

Walker had found himself leaving the gates to the mansion with a strange feeling eating at him. He was alone and about to walk off alone. This was the first time he had done so in a while. He rarely walked alone for long periods of time and now he was about to wander out in to the city just to walk about and explore. 

He pointed himself in the direction of the lower class area. He had made the decision to head to the adventurers guild to see how Clara was doing. He was sure she was in a mess of work because the farmers’ fields needed patrolling, cleaning, and homes rebuilt. It was only natural that the extra manpower would come from the guild. 

Walker himself was not planning to leave the city because he just wouldn’t feel comfortable without the party there. He also had the feeling that there would not be an exciting adventure without them. It was just not the way things were meant to be. 

”Get away from my stall! Demons’ like you are the reason children can’t sleep at night.. Don’t you know that we are just tolerating you? The sooner you leave the better!” Walker was frozen. He needed a moment to breathe and quell his immediate anger hearing this. 

When he looked up and saw the fruit vendor shouting at the demon man who looked to be much too thin, he knew that he could not keep walking leisurely.

”If what you say is true then every single human in this kingdom is cruel and mistreats other races. They can’t extend a hand to them and can not learn to live with those who have just escaped the tortures of a corrupted rule. Do you think that is accurate?” Walker released his voice and let the mana around him fluctuate with his words. He still has many skills that effected the mana and aura around him that he could use at once. 

The small group watching the stall owner became slightly fearful, ”Then there are the humans who can not even stand up for those races. How does it feel to know that every single person in the kingdom is the same? Even myself as a hero must be hateful to another race. Isn’t that what you are getting at.” This made the group watching and the stall owner begin to cower. 

”What did you need? Apples? Or did you want to ask the vendor a question? I can find you a better place I am sure.” Walker held out a hand to the frightened demon. 

The stall vendor was still shocked and stammering words in response to Walkers’ words. He couldn’t get a proper explanation out and no one witnessing all of this was able to step forward due to their shame. 

”I want to be a merchant. I want to travel and see different things. I want to fairly trade for things instead of getting nothing but stolen from.” The demon was obviously a victim of the hierarchy of the demon lands. They were not known for merchants but instead for taking what they wanted by force. This was the largest reason there were no merchants that would go there to trade. Any that had ever tried had been hunted and robbed. 

”Well, there are much better places than a single fruit vendor. I know an auction house that has deep connections with many merchants. Would you like me to introduce you?” The demon man nodded. He wasn’t sure what else to say since there were so many others’ watching him. 

”Was that encounter informational for everyone? These are citizens of the Genesis alliance and the Genesis city. They are equal to you now. If you wish to sit on your neighbor then don’t expect anyone to come running to your rescue. The demons are an intelligent race just like us. They had their troubles but I have found they are much kinder than you may believe.” Walker grabbed the demon by the arm and began to head toward the Garnet family auction house. 

Behind him, the conversation broke out instantly. For a moment everyone tried to blame the stall owner and then each other before realizing that they were just throwing around words. They began to feel sick. The hero himself had just told them that what they were doing was the same as spitting on each other. The hero had said that they were showing that every human was the same cruel creature looking down on another race, even the king was human too!

Those who had stopped watched as the stall owner closed shop and proceeded toward the cathedral. Without any words, they followed him. They had a lot to learn about and the church was the best place to begin.

Walker smiled as he pulled the demon along. ”Here’s something to snack on. We have a few minutes to walk before we get there.” Walker pulled a few strawberries from his storage and handed them to the demon. His plans had been changed but Walker felt it was for the best. He had made an impression on the people and hopefully, they would change their ways and accept demons more. However, he knew it would take time.
