Master Of None

Chapter 2260: 2260. Prove Your Words

”It was the silence in response to what Su had said that made everyone start to feel uneasy. The water wyvern with a mouth of condensed water mana and salt water was still staring her down. ”I tried to be polite, but if you are not going to respond...”

Su slammed the twin shields together causing an ear shocking sound to echo through the air. This was a skill she had learned to use in tandem with some wind mana. While simple in the grand scheme of things, it used her taunt skill and wind mana to make a shield ring skill.

The sound could echo through a large area and force attention on her. ”My name is Su. I am a true draconic guardian. I expect your leader, whether it be queens or kings, to come and meet me. If not, we will assume hostility and block off any other race from ever nearing these islands.”

This wasn’t a threat that the wyverns would be cut off. Instead, it was a warning that all the races of Genesis would not be allowed to come near. The safety that Su and all the leaders wished for their people was more important than exploring these odd islands made of crystalized stone different in co,lor due to various light manas affecting them.

If the wyverns were not allowing themselves to communicate in any way shape or form, then they could attack the others that came to explore. They were also the biggest risk to the angel’s village on the shore. Just a short flight away and the wyverns could attack them for food or just to expand territory.

The sudden churning of water and then the buffetign of wind made su brace herself, but she didn’t feel ill will behind them. She watched as a large wyvern with purer white scales landed on the nearby purple crystal peak. Beside it, a larger water wyvern with deeper blue scales climbed up on to the cliffside and watched Su carefully.

”Our children and elders have yet to grasp language. We were recently blessed by existence.” The large amount of wind mana that moved around the wyvern made it very clear that she was a sky queen wyvern. But from the closer inspection with Su’s draconic eyes, she could tell that her scales were dainty. No, they were weak.

”Your illness, we have many healers, alchemists to make potions, and even unique class users who may be able to alleviate the symptoms. Scale rot is not uncommon for many of those that live within our home.”

”Luring us with false promises will lead to war between us. Do not mock us. We have carved our homes here to survive the constant hunting from other monsters. From the angels. From the flame wyverns who believe themselves to be greater than dragons.” anger and rage was all that could be felt from the water wyvern king’s words.

His piercing blue eyes did not leave Su. They were looking at her for any hint that she was lying to them. For any small proof that she was looking to kill them off. ”Do you know why we came here?”

As Su looked at all the the elder wyverns who had slowly moved in to defensive positions after the sky wyvern queen and the water wyvern king had appeared. They were not going to attack, but if they saw that they needed to, they would surely throw themselves in the way of any attack.

”Recently, we were not considering the earth wyverns a race. We actually helped the angels pursue an enemy causing trouble along with controlling the earth wyverns as monsters. Their queen was smart enough to be able to communicate with us once we, and the dragons, entered their nests.”

”After removing the monster trying to keep a collar on them, we managed to reach an understanding. When the world was returned to flow and existence was able to reach it, they became a race officially. They gained intelligence in a clever way overall with that. Now, they are members of the Genesis alliance boasting tens of races together as one.”

”Whether you have fought with the earth wyverns before, they are a branch of the wyvern race. As the dragons stand as representatives of each elemental aspect of their races, the wyverns will be welcomed to do so as well. In return, we would ask you to help Genesis grow along with your own people.”

”We came looking for the sky wyverns, because we heard that in the distant past, your young consumed the earth eater’s tough body. Their parasitism of stone and metal will cause many deaths if not kept in check. It would be the best and safest way to both allow for the sky wyverns to eat more and also to help Genesis.”

”You wish to use us! As pest control no less!” The water wyvern king tensed his muscles to leap at the boats and attack Su. However, the wind slammed him off the cliffside and in to the water.

”My children have suffered. My elders have been unable to properly feed their children. The only solution was to mix our sky wyvern blood and the water wyvern blood together in this safe haven. Years of cooling the stones of this island and creating fogs to hide us. Moving nests and eggs every single day. Hunting only enough when the food returns after the what for the day ends.”

The sky queen wyvern looked at the few sky wyverns left. She also looked at the mixed colored wyverns who were clearly the youngest amongst every wyvern there. ”Pledge to all that is. On your life itself that you will bring us prosperity.”

”Do you think I would hesitate?” Su laughed. She felt her heart beating with strength. This was what it was meant to be like. Nothing should be easy. She had put her heart and soul in to her actions.

Every single thing that she did was not just for her, but for others. That was what a guardian was. And the dragon aspect of who she was now only went to reinforce that. Her whole life she had the goal to cure her mother’s illness and take weight from her father’s shoulders. Then she had the desire to defend the people and solve the problems of the world.

After that, she found places that needed support. Even if she lacked the skills, she did what she could. Right this second, she had been entrusted by her family who had fought beside her to grow and unite the races to grow in peace. It was who she would be and who she was now.

”I, Su, as both a hero and as a member of Genesis, pledge that the water and sky wyverns that choose to join Genesis will be safe and have a future to grow as they see fit. The knowledge of Genesis will be free to you. The path to live as equals will be open to you. If these are lies, then let existence itself strip away my power and life!”

Mana in the form of a dragon’s roar echoed out with her pledge to the wyverns here. The pure strength behind it stunned the water wyvern king who had recovered from being knocked aside by the sky wyvern queen.

While the king was a powerful force, a wyvern queen was the strongest of their kind. The only reason that the king of the water wyverns was their leader was due to missing a water wyvern queen. He had taken a potent defensive position since his water wyverns needed it. And he has extended his protection to the sky wyverns in their time of need too.

Yet, he was watching something against his understanding and beliefs.

”Then as queen, I welcome you to set foot upon the crystal islands.” The sky wyvern queen pulled back her wind mana and stepped slowly down to the broken crystal beach. The sands were these broken crystal pieces mixed from the constant buffering of the water on the

islands.

While the islands themselves were leather than expected, they were going to be broken by the waves eventually, that was not something missed by the wyverns with their boosted intelligence after existence recognized them. They knew that their home now would not last for hundreds of years as a main land would.

”Healers, meet the sky wyvern queen and look at her injuries. Mages, remain here and do not think for a second that you are allowed to walk on the island. Their nests are to be respected and we will not risk harming them with any magic, even if it is controlled very closely.” Su’s orders were both to allow the wyverns more comfort but also to show the water wyvern king that they would not even dare to bring battle ready forces near their young.

”I will begin the planning for movement and organizing the wyverns alongside their king and queen.”
