Master Of None

Chapter 2378: 2378. Floating

”Ugh, hey! Stop, I am already awake!” Walker tried to get himself up but found that Midnight had jumped on him in her dragonkin form. She was trying to wake him up but instead had managed to trap him in his blankets.

”Don’t laugh at me! I know you are doing this on purpose!” The next moment, a small thud came with Midngoth being swept off the bed and tangled in Onyx’s tail. He had returned with many others to witness the floating ship.

”Sister, you can not trap brother there or else you and he will be late to the unveiling of the floating ship.” This prompted a flailing escape from Midnight and Onyx’s attempt to catch her again. Walker just shook his head because he knew that the two would be messing around like this whether he wanted them to or not. It was a good start to the day, the energetic

atmosphere was healthy.

As Walker found that he was actually the last one awake, he realized that it had to be because he had focused so much on his meditation the last few days that his mind had needed a proper rest to reset itself. This was the case for many when they focused on mana too much, while they might be physically ready for anything, their minds were slow and tired.

His mind instantly snapped to the fact that there would be so many people who also went to the floating ship and stood on top of it. Walker knew that Su had plans to go out exploring to gather materials.she wanted to solve the issues she saw with the armor and weapons the guards and soldiers had.

He knew that there would be a rougher time for the production of these things. Right now so many projects had every crafter working harder than ever. While this was good because it made more experienced and stronger craftsmen overall, it was also very bad.

The inexperienced craftsman made works that still got sold and those who could not afford anything better would take them. Lowering the quality of their protections and also lowering the average quality of everyone’s protection.

The gear needed to be better for the fact that there were tougher opponents that could harm them. That is a fact and would have to be remembered as everyone moved forward. The larger projects like the floating ship had taken a greater deal of resources than what anyone else could imagine.

This was just one project. Many other places had to be rebuilt, improved, or entirely built from scratch when it came to new places entirely. So much has happened and will continue to happen. The cost of resources was beyond what genesis had saved for any emergency now. Walker knew that and so did every single Genesis representative.

As Walker met the others, he was glad to see that everyone was ready to head to the floating ship together. ”I know you and Su are going so that’s why Alma and I are staying here. No issue in that, right?’ Gil knew that he and Alma had every ability and right to go with them to the lava fields while twisting the floating ship.

”You are working on more of those arrows than you are working on anything else. Maybe you should go with them to the lava fields.” Alma gave a slight glare to back her words up. Clearly, Gil had been missing in action for some other important events that pushed Alma to want to make sure he was present and working somewhere.

”Oh, I have had him making things for me. He has been my errand boy in the alchemy lab making sure that I gave what I needed. He wanted me to make sleeping potions and poisons for his arrows but he had other things to work on.” Remey sneaked a smirk and Alma gave a little nod. She knew that the undead dissolving potions being made were something valuable. It was an idea that was becoming true and Remey had halted her plans to produce them since the experiments had not been completed yet. It proved to be much harder than she originally planned since the purification aspects of what she ended were temperamental.

The potion needed a lot more care and easily broke down. She had to find the right herbs to make sure it stabilized and could last for more than just a few hours in a potion vial.

It made her focus shift to her ideal but Remey was fully trying to focus on the event they were going to. She made it clear that she wasn’t going anywhere either. Leaving it to Walker and Su was a show of trust for them.

”I am staying as well brother. It is not time for me to go on another expedition. I have spent a lot of time in ruins and would like to rest more.” Onyx has somewhat forced himself here.

After absorbing so much light mana, he had rested and processed it. While he had grown because of it, the strain on his body was still there. He needed more time which did not involve fighting or a long adventure.

He also had his own thoughts about aurora who had also absorbed a lot of light mana. He couldn’t really hide his worry for her nor could he hide the fact that he wanted to work with her more.

It was a high probability that Rise would stop either of them from going to the lava fields too. She knew the strain in their bodies because she was a light dominator regain and the light mana they had absorbed had affected her very much. She knew the rest needed.

This west Alice who Walker already knew would stay behind. She had her own projects with young healers and also teaching classes at the adventurers guild after their recent expedition. She could easily make a difference when it came to the future and safety of young healers or adventurers in general.

”Midnight, are you too busy with the young hatchlings? Or are you trying to come with me and Su?” Knowing that Su planned on venturing out alone, Walker had a feeling that he would be dragged in to his own random event. It was his luck after all.

”Going out to stretch.” Her simple comment gave Walker what he needed.

Since Midnight had focused and trained with the other dragons along with teaching the hatchlings, she had not properly been out and about. Yes some events had happened that pulled her away here and there but not fully.

This was a chance to get out and properly take her dragon form for a while. It would allow her to test her actual strength while pushing her to get out any pent up desires to fight or explore. Especially since she knew she was strong enough to handle the larger dangers within the lava fields.

”Then we will have a good time getting out and about for a while. I feel like the floating ship will be fun.” As Walker said this they arrived at the crowded storage where the floating ship

was.

The carved metals protecting the outside were coursing with manas. Making the colors change when some exposed mana gems were filled and processed the manas to live elsewhere. The larger pieces that facilitated floating were pulsing slightly and making sure that people kept well back for safety.

Walker, Su, and Midnight stepped forward after saying their goodbyes in excitement for the coming moments. Their feelings were the same as the large crowd looking at the magical metal creation made for sailing the skies with magic and advanced rune technology.

No one group had made this. Every bit of knowledge had been used and new geniuses had appeared because of it.

As Walker listened to announcements of who had worked and their innovative achievements, he also noted that many new people had arisen during this time. Even mages who had been focused on magic had found ways to change their classes through quests to take up new

mantels.

As the mana built suddenly, Walker stood with steady feet. He could feel the mana flow through thousands of mana formations. The anyone’s mana held in over seven massive mana gems created just for this was immense.

The elemental spirits working inside those gems regulated everything. The spirit race guided them to perfection. Dwarven craftsmen monitored the moving parts. Every single position and piece worked perfectly.

The hundreds of tests for this moment as thousands watched while holding their breath. The excitement only grew before sudden shouts erupted.

They had managed to raise a full foot of the ground. Entirely stable. Perfectly balanced. Mana flowing smoothly. No grinding parts. Everything was as it should be. Perfectly made.
