Master Of None

The air of the entire city seemed sweeter. The sun seemed brighter. Everyone in all of Genesis felt that everything had been made right. They had not been sure what was wrong but they knew it had been solved. As they saw the system notifications and the words of the world, many children were rushing to their parents or even the nearest person.

The shouts of them being able to follow quests that guided them toward their best possible skills or even toward their best possible system were unbelievable. However, everyone felt that this was the way it was meant to be. That all of history had been waiting for the moment that this would be the way of life.

There was an even larger commotion going on when people encountered the harpies and the grey haired spider. Instead of being unable to understand the chittering or high pitched words, they understood exactly what was being said.

Their minds seemed to have been unlocked and a something that had always been there was free to be used. The languages were still different but the understanding of each word bloomed within them. This was another major event that caused many people to rush around the city in joy.

As much as the guards believed things would become chaotic, they were wrong. Every time someone rushed to them, it was a joyful celebratory report. Instead of being told that something bad was happening or a riot had broken out, they were told that they were invited to a tavern or to drink in someone’s home. It was a beautiful display of Genesis and how it was growing.

This supportive atmosphere didn’t just stay in Genesis, however, it had reached out to other cities. The dwarven city being one due to the recent bonding of elves and grey haired spiders.

The grey haired spiders had found some comfort in the underground of the dwarven city. Some had split from Genesis and traveled there after deciding that they did not wish to remain in the forests. This decision had proven to be a great boon for them and the dwarves when it came to the many different ways that their silk was used in crafting.

The language barrier was all that stopped them. They had trouble making things understandable when it came to what they were trying to accomplish. Even then they needed food, it had been a tough thing. Now, it was perfect. Things could evolve in their bond by leaps and bounds.

But nothing could prepare Walker for what he would be handling once he returned to the mansion.

The guards had reported to guard Sandman where he rested. Luna, in her dormant form, had been taken to the water elves’ living area. This was because they were preparing a specific place for her to absorb mana. It was decided that the mage tower would not be able to keep her in touch with the flow of nature. It was also very clear that Current wanted to rest nearby.

The flow that Luna had described was a level of understanding in water that he had never grasped. That he could wish to learn but never had a teacher for. He understood water, the mana, and how it worked in the world. But he did not understand what the flow of the world was. How water was more than just mana and an element.

Naturally, Gil took the lead to bring both Luna and Current there. He said he had to find Alma and explain that the illness would fade. He also had to explain everything that had happened here and how it would influence Genesis in the future. Walker was sure that Gil also wanted to ask some of the enforcers to keep an eye on Sandman since he was still a sin title holder that had attacked many cities.

The other royal dragons, Su, and Onyx made their way toward the cathedral. They understood that Walker would be dragged away at any moment by one of the other representatives or even Clara. The adventurers were definitely going to be finding that they could speak to some of the other races of the world clearly without assistance.

It wasn’t that many other taxes spoke different languages, but with the addition of goblins, grey haired spiders, and harpies, many of the adventurers had chosen to accept them in to their groups or taken quests regarding them. This was tough because of the language barriers. With them suddenly gone, Clara would surely have more work to deal with.

Leaving just Remey and Waller together, Remey decided that heading to the mansion was the only choice to make. She knew that Midnight had wandered off and had long been missing for the time being. It was pretty clear that she might have gone after the dragon hatchlings somewhere so she wanted to make sure they didn’t need potions.

”You really need to keep an eye on kids. They can get themselves in to trouble. Midnight has to already realize this. They will rush away, get in trouble then cause more trouble while trying to hide it.” This was the rant that Walker had begun to listen to as Remey charged towards the mansion.

”Then when they get somewhere more comfortable like the mansion, they will try to hide their issues. I was the same way you know. I am sure you would rush to your bed if you were in trouble too.” Remey’s words stopped when she realized the commotion coming from inside. She turned back to Walker who was a little out of breath having to keep up with her., ”See? There is already a bunch of trouble since Midnight was caught up in other things.”

”Wait, Remey, those sound like child’s voices. Or in my head it does…” Walker grasped what he was hearing. This made him move ahead of Remey and grab the door to open it.

When he revealed the hatchlings and Midnight rushing around the entrance hall, he noticed that there was not a saddened face to be seen. None of the little hatchlings seemed upset at all. Instead, they see me overjoyed. They were running around with Midnight who was desperately trying to chase them. Even Walker’s mother and little sister had joined the fun.

”Brother!!!!!!” The roar that came out from Midnight in her dragon form was more than what had met the eye. It wasn’t a greeting that got her attention. It was a shout for Walker to come to her and greet her as well.

”Midnight! We can talk! We can talk normally. You just started to learn the human language too and now this. It’s amazing. We should talk all night!” He easily gave in to what had been feeling for so long. All the worries of not being able to properly communicate had washed away in to nothing.

”You would not believe how she and all the other little ones have been saying that they are waiting to see their friends. They want to go to the auction house, the crafting guild, and Even the adventurers guild. All sorts of places so that they can be able to see everyone they have been meeting. If they had any more energy they might just start a fire beneath their heels.” The glee in Hilda’s voice was the same that she held every time she saw a toddler running through the streets. They all reminded her of her own children.

”Midnight has been telling me all about how she is going to be stronger than you. She said that she’s going to be the strongest sister!” Lisa rushed up to Walker. She had definitely taken the day off from her work to be here. As much as he wanted to reprimand her, he knew that she was still much younger and deserved to be a kid a little more than she had been. He did still admire that Lisa had taken so much on to herself so that she could follow her dreams even though she was little. It was something he hoped she had gained by watching him through the years.

”Let’s see what everyone has to say.” Walker stood up as tall as he could and looked at all the hatchlings who were still making small growls and hisses that didn’t equal any real words. ”As you know, I am Walker. The royal nature dragon that has opened the city to you and all dragons. It is nice to meet you again. Especially now that we can speak and understand each other.”

The roars that responded to his greeting were a mix of yeses, hoorays, and even a few I am the strongest dragons. Naturally, those shouting about being the strongest were the fire dragon hatchlings. The two that showed off the fire of fire dragons best.
