Master Of None

Chapter 2746: 2746. Back To Busy Streets

”You two were sent away?” The laughter in Su’s voice was a thing to behold. She was trying her best not to show it but failing entirely. To be fair, it was an exceptionally comical thing to be told. That two of the heroes had been sent away while someone needed to work and experiment. Normally Walker would have been pulled right in to the center of everything to keep working and developing whatever he had been brought in on. Moments like this were rare.

Although, Midnight didn’t seem to care too much. She had been playing with mana for the entire time she was around Walker after they left. It appeared she had seen how he used his control of the eternal codex to easily take away mana from the rune formations with no issue afterwards.

She was trying to get the manas she absorbed to be calm and smooth like that, it was just a small struggle since she had to try and figure out how to do it with every single mana and they all had different nuances to make it possible.

As much as Walker wished to help her, Midnight had shaken her head to tell him she wanted to figure it out alone. Meaning that Walker was left feeling doubly lost as to what to do with himself. ”They need to grow on their own without your intervention. They can learn and you can go there if they need you.”

From the perspective that Alice had, it was the same with how she allowed the whalers to split up and go on their own trips to help villages, working camps, or other places within Genesis. They had to learn from real life experiences without a hand holding them from falling. If the healers did not, then they would find themselves lacking in times of need. It was tough to do, but Alice had learned this from her father so she would not fail to live the lesson she was taught.

”Then I guess we head back to Genesis and greet the leaders as they arrive?” Walker didn’t see what else they would do since the groups Su and Alice brought had been doing a spectacular job assisting in the monster clearing of the ruins. The little work that the group had done to clear and find some unique items within the ruins and also mapped enough for the teams to begin sending in researchers to check on their theories.

Everything with the project was on hold until more of the information was sorted through and studied along with the elemental domes for greenhouses and even cities or towns as well. It was all waiting on more knowledge and experimentation. If Walker wanted to push any of that forward, he would have to be the center of it all, and that wasn’t his job here. He had come to help and that was what he did. Now he would trust those who spent their lives learning it all.

Without holding off any longer, Alice and Su left orders for their groups. The elite guard trainees were to keep assisting until they were dismissed to return to Genesis by the captains in charge of them. This meant that they would most likely spend a few months here learning more and more each day. The same was for the healers, however, they were to remain until there was a well rested existing healer force here. Those who had been working were a little overworked due to the chaos of keeping camp, building, and clearing monsters. This break was enough to establish better formats for healing here in the long term.

”I will be excited to see how strong they are when they come back to me. Then we will be able to see what they can do on an expedition in to the wilderness.” Su was already planning how she would be bringing her trained elite guards in to the wilderness. It was somewhat terrifying since Walker knew just how intense this training would be once the trainees were experiencing it. She wasn’t going to let them be anything but great.

Getting back to a teleportian rune formation was as easy as breathing for them with Walker enhancing their movement through the sky. Alice hadn’t frowned a bit when Walker picked her up to carry. It seemed that the slight spark of happiness in her eyes had been waiting for gestures like that. Plus, he spent a decent amount of their time flying talking about their teamwork with her singing and using his light orbs to assist in purifying the ruins.

Walker greatly enjoyed that he knew their magic skills could overlap and complement one another like that. He wanted to work even more to see if she could make an illusory light field around him and he could use that mana to use stronger light oriented skills. Or even better, if he acted out the emotions and desires behind her songs if he would be buffed even more than normally. It was something he hoped they could practice and something Alice looked forward to since he was clearly using it as an excuse to spend more time alone. Something that hadn’t happened because they were so busy lately.

This would all wait for a bit though, as the group appeared, they found that Genesis was buzzing. Not simply busy, but crowded and busier than what they left it as.

”I would say that we already have our guests here.” While Su hummed, pointing out a few known nibbles from the human kingdom and high ranked soldiers from the demi-human kingdom, Walker and the others noticed that there was a great group of dwarven craftsmen standing in lines outside of the crafting guild. They were waiting to see the newer experimentation furnaces and techniques being done there.

This wasn’t to miss the smaller groups of older elves being escorted by younger elves who had spent more time within Genesis. It was all too clear that many had arrived for the conference, even if their leaders were not yet present. Two things were sure though, Walker sensed the demi-human king Rorick and the forest elf Queen’s vines keeping her anchored to the city for the time being and her safety. Two leaders had come here safely and it was a certainty that more would arrive sooner than later.

”Lord Walker, ladies Su, Alice, and Midnight. I have been waiting here with a letter for you.” it wasn’t a letter but a stack of papers handed right to Walker before the attendant rushed off. It seemed that they had been waiting there so that they could throw Walker and the others right in to the center of the chaos.

”Well, this scratchy note is from Gil, I know that.” Walker laughed as he read it, then he used wind magic to make the papers they had float around him. He could easily memorize them all and read them as needed. Then again, this also sorted out the actual important documents related to temporary housing, slightly marked up inn prices, and even the fact that new food vendors were allowed to place their stalls on temporary festival streets during the visits of their leaders.

All things that would help them, since they would not be able to assist anyone that was lost or in need of basic assistance on how to do things in the city. Besides this, Walker also saw the reports about the issue with the trees connecting roots for the forest elf queen. But when he noticed that Remey and Gil had worked together to fix the problem before it was actually an issue, he didn’t even have to say anything out loud. He was just silently proud that they worked without any arguing or fighting.

Then again, Walker was sure that the two would be bragging just a bit since they each did quite a bit in this event.

”I want to have a sparring match with some of the royal guards that came with King Rorick. I have a feeling that they might be able to help you see any issues in my style if I don’t use my full force or magical abilities.”

”I think that’s a good idea, you have been sharing your offensive shield style with many people and altering it a lot. If you find any basic issues you can make it even higher class. You might even help some people awaken classes related to it.” Since Walker knew that Midnight would tag along with Su, he quickly started them walking toward the Genesis building. His mind also focused on the grand mapping hall where he could see the progress made so far.

Odds were it would be a small bit of progress since it took time to get in depth mapping done, but even that alone would be amazing to see.
