Master Of None

Traveling had been a fairly easy event so far. The healers had stocked up on herbs that could keep monsters away. They had followed strict rules to ensure that they were not leaving a trail that pack type monsters could follow them. And they had rested well to maintain their strength at all times.

Alice had been leading this effort to a greater degree than the other healers had expected. They knew that the high priest had approved for Alice to leave the cathedral in this way so that she could grow as a person. However, they had not realized how much Alice had learned when she had left on adventures with Walker’s party.

When she would sing, they were not used to seeing her battle the few horned rabbits they had passed by. Most of them had techniques to avoid the few monsters they may run in to. Some had even purchased special dwarven and elven items that could create a smokescreen to hide them in for an easy escape.

”According to the map and route we are taking, the first village near the borders should only have about ten buildings and fifteen families. They are mostly farmers that harvest produce that can not grow near large populations.” The healer that had come with Alice was a unique case. She had been given the wandering healer system by the world.

This meant that she had skills that were strictly made to help her wander about and heal others. For the first five years, she had remained within the cathedral to learn the knowledge necessary to live life on the move. After that, she had waited for the right chance to leave and begin her travels.

The chance to move to Genesis was perfect because she could help create a new cathedral before wandering toward the demon lands where healers were needed. Whether it was soldiers, merchants, or just small villages, she was ready to help them. She had been inspired by the dreams to help those who were hurt by the corrupted demons in charge of the demon lands.

Hearing this put Alice in an even brighter mood. She was glad that they were making good time. She had been walking carefully the last few hours because one of the elven healers that had come with her had some tracking abilities and found some monster tracks. Alma had asked the healer to join them because it would expand the bind between the elves and the church. They had different beliefs but similar practices.

The last three of their group were not specified in any position. They were basic healers that had been in the cathedral for some time. They were very skilled since there had been many things that happened which allowed them to grow their skills. As far as Alice was concerned, they could stand at the top of any cathedral.

”We will make it there by the end of the day.” The decoration brought them all more energy. Hearing Alice speak had become much less rare since she had been able to control her skills. Now she didn’t have to worry about using all of her mana when she was speaking or singing, this allowed her to communicate better.

Arora had been enjoying the journey as well. She had been wrapped around Alic’s arm the entire time. Alice had tried to leave Arora behind with Onyx and Ibus, unfortunately, Arora had become smarter than any of them knew.

When Alice had left early in the morning while Walker had been away, Arora had snuck in to the simple bag she was carrying. After an hour of travel, Alice had opened the bag to get some water only to find that the metal bottle created for her to carry water in, had Arora wrapped around it. There had been a moment of disbelief before she had outright accepted it. She would be traveling with her new partner regardless now since they couldn’t just turn around.

The skies had been clear proving to be ideal for Arora to keep absorbing the light elemental mana. The positive was that she had absorbed plenty from Ibis’s summons before they left so Arora actually had a great deal of stored light elemental mana. She wouldn’t need to worry about being out of pure light mana for some weeks.

”Wait, is that another one of those rabbit monsters?” The healer that called out was a rather young boy who had a unique affinity for healing. He was from a merchant family who had given him the choice of traveling or joining the cathedral in Genesis where their new shop was opened.

Looking ahead, Alice saw what the healer had seen. It was a horned rabbit that had managed to completely miss them even though the group had become very close to it. ”What should we do? We are too close to risk backing away or using the smoke to keep it at bay. We might need to use the smoke bomb or the smoke potion we have.” The healers didn’t want to lose these things since they were very important resources.

”No, I will handle it. We can use it as a greeting for the village.” Alice became much more serious upon saying this. She had made the call and would begin attacking.

The song that started was hard to understand, but the air felt like it was becoming heavy. The swords that Alice had condensed would normally be multiple so that she could go after the target if it moved. Yet she had developed a new way of using the condensed light elemental sword that she would make. She had begun to add more and more elemental mana to it in a way that it would dissipate layer by layer. That way it would move faster.

Alice looked at the horned rabbit ahead of them and started to move side to side so that she would be hard to lock on to as a target. Her singing had just started to announce her presence to the horned rabbit.
