Chapter 2116. Mage Tower Improved · Oct 27, 2026

”What brought you here?” Walker found Remey for all people with some of the fire mages. She was standing around handing out potions, so it was easy to guess what had been happening. ”Ignus said that the fire mages had to learn a lot more to be able to help him. So, fire affinity potions. You should have seen how much gold Ignus brought over from his village. You know the rumors about dragons hoarding things?” Remey smirked as she thought abt it. This was something that they had heard from many people. Dragons were known to hoard things here and there. Naturally, they would also do so with gold ores, coins, and gems when they found them. But since the royal dragons were more intelligent, the entire party had thought that this was something for younger dragons. Not them. Yet, here Remey was backing up the rumor. And from the number of high fire affinity potions she had already handed out and still had with her to hand out, well, it was clear that Ignus had brought a decent amount of gold. Not that Remey wouldn’t have made him potions if he had just asked. This just went to show that the dragons understood how the city would work. The way that their economy needed to be fueled to run. The herbalists needed to be paid for their hard work preparing herbs. The alchemists that made the potions. Tune those that delivered them. All of this was very important and needed to be kept running. If people didn’t have the gold coins to feed their families, why would they do something for free? This also showed a lot more of the depth that genesis was capable of . Remey had a crate in her hands that held at least forty vials of potions. Nearby, there were alchemists of the alchemy guild handing out from similar, if not larger crates, the same potions. Therefore, it was to say that genesis alchemy guild and herb fields had already managed to be able to produce enough to create these potions. The higher quality and number of herbs needed was not something to scoff at. This was an accomplishment within itself. What Walker saw in this was a comfort. He saw that genesis was able to feed themselves since the herbalists and the farms were hand in hand. They relied on much the same things just a little more specific for herbs compared to the food side of things. This also meant that there would be a continuous growth from inside Genesis toward outside. But regardless, of all this, something else topped what Walker was seeing when it came to the number of fire mages outside the mage tower. From What he could see, there were over a hundred of the fire mages, magma mages, and earth mages that had gathered here together. They had been prepared to take turns within the mage tower to use these potions as they could so that they might have a chance to grasp a better skill or understanding of fire mana before they were to help. The earth mages were also holding the earth affinity potions. Yet, the magma mages had one of each. A show of how certain dual affinity individuals or classes would make it harder in life. Not that it was an issue. There was a greater strength in fused manas than what could be found in a singular mana or affinity. Therefore, it made a lot of sense that it would cost more. Take more resources to ensure that the dual affinity person or class grew. But when it did, they would become a force to be reckoned with. The mage tower itself had also changed. When the world had adjusted to the proper flow, every rune on the mage tower had been enhanced in a way by the purer manas moving through it. While this did not mean that the tower had grown much. It meant that the tower was working as efficiently as possible. In turn, that meant that Genesis received the greatest possible boost from it. People were able to grasp mana much better in general. They also gained the health boosts that came with this. Beyond this, many of the mages within had mentioned that the books were easier to understand because of the purer and denser manas. That was also just second fiddle to the fact that the mage tower had begun sending out quests of its own violation. The mentality left behind within the mage tower had once told Walker that it was looking for a grand mage or an arch mage. Some form of great mage that was well above another to take over as the head of the tower. Due to this, the tower clearly had the right abilities to be able to cause quests to appear. It was just a after of time before it did so. With the world changing, it had the ability to take advantage more easily of those that wished to come. It could push for the only goal it had within the runes and mentality left behind by those that once created it. That left many mages working toward various goals. Some worked to become the masters of an elemental floor within the mage tower. This would mean that they were a master within that mana and could teach, share, and do many more things with the specific elemental floor of the tower. Especially when it came to the highest quality books stored within the tower. This included the bringing of new magic books in to the mage tower. That master mage would be able to bring knowledge that the tower lacked and expand it. Eventually, the tower would be able to expand as well. Especially since was an elemental magic tower, it lacked certain manas, That was all after there was a tower master mage of some sort. That all to the side, Fluer and Walker made their move to leave Remey to her tasks. She was not very keen on talking since she wanted to do the job she had right now. Naturally, Walker and Fleur would not push her on that. She would just get angry and try to punch them. In natural Remey style. As Fluew and Walker moved through the mage tower toward the top area where he could use all manas, he was able to feel the deeper manas that were at work. The purer elemental manas on each floor were much more powerful. So much so that they would rival the pure manas that the dominator dragons were able to sue. That was due to the sheer number of runes used. Since the runes were always bringing in, purifying, and then condensing the elemental manas within the tower, they made this all possible. But since the manas were so potent, they were able to show off that in natural fashion. Some of the denser areas with manas had naturally occurring elemental runes. These were studied by the rune carvers who moved around the floors with mages to guide them. They were doing so, recording what they could comprehend, then rushing to the next spot that a natural rune would pop up. This was entirely unexpected for Walker since he had not been thinking that the rune carvers would come up here at all. Yet, here they were. Learning about the manas that their runes were able to guide. Even some forgemasters were here trying to do the exact same thing. To bring them both even more surprise, when the pair reached their training area, they found that there were three people meditating here already. Two of them were demons who naturally had a high affinity toward mana and magic in general. This was just surprising because they had not had the chance to grow much due to the state of the demon lands and the oppression of demons.
