Master Of None

Chapter 1094: 1094. Match Made?

Due to the pace that Midnight set, they were all forced to move faster. She was the worst at holding back her excitement but no one had any issue with it. There was a lot of curiosity that the king of the deep caves and Alice had. They wanted to see what Walker was thinking and what he had in mind since there was a lot of potential in an egg huntersʼ shop.

When the door opened, Walker was greeted by the chime of a bell. He also noticed that there was a slight smell of burning. The scent pierced his nose and was very potent. So much so that it burned a little. There was also the remains of the crate that he had seen before. It seemed to be melting a little from the inside now that the egg was gone.

”Now that smells like an acidic poison if I ever smelled it. I would stay away from whatever monster makes that.”

”Sorry, I was just transferring a certain egg. I take it you are the honorable king of the deep caves who happens to have tamed a silver skinned worm? I have been wanting to meet you ever since I heard the rumor.

I never had the chance to meet one and rarely encounter the monsters tamed by your people.” It was clear that the main reason that Ash wanted to meet the king was because he lacked the chance to study these kinds of eggs.

”Well, I do happen to have my Airgid right here.” The king pulled the mall worm from his pouch to show it off. The worm just moved around lazily in his hand as if it was trying to sleep. ” I can go in to more detail if you want but you will need to come by the caves with me. We already have a few miners with pets and partners working.” This proposition was exactly what Ash wanted.

”Perfect! I have to study more so I can identify more eggs. I assume you will have some eggs around as well since youʼre digging quite a bit?” Ash also had hope of seeing some new eggs.

”We have found some monster nests as we go. Even broke in to some small caves that didnʼt have proper air flow for monsters to hatch.” That was it, Ash was hooked and ready to leave.

”I brought someone that should be able to bond with the heavenly serpent egg. This is Alice, she is a songstress that controls light with her voice. I would say she is perfect for the heavenly serpent since they will share a very pure elemental affinity.” Walker was proud to introduce Alice and also saw that she was understanding the situation.

”I know you might not want to be partnered with a monster. But I could only think of you being qualified for this. If you donʼt want to then I will search for someone else, no questions asked.” This was the promise that Alice needed to hear. She would not want to be forced in to anything but felt that Walker was coming from a good place.

”Can I look?” Alice wanted to feel if the egg would actually be compatible with her. She was not sure if she could actually tame a monster. However, she had met a few healers with light elemental partners. One healer, in particular, was a traveling healer that partnered with white ermine which was very similar to a weasel.

But it had a very kind nature that came with its ability to heal small wounds and boost healing skills used by others.

”I want to see this little monster hatch one day. I have had this egg for about four years now. I didnʼt really know what it was and hate that it wouldnʼt have a home. It requires a hundred days of pure light elemental mana. That will cost a lot but between him and a few others, it should be possible.

I also know that it will need a lot of attention when growing, a place with a lot of light elemental mana is important while it grows.” Ash was much more serious than he had been before. Now that he was willing to give up this egg for a new business connection he had to be certain it would be safe.

Alice placed a hand on it and felt the draw of light elemental mana. She took off the bracelet that Walker had given her and handed it to him for the moment. She whispered to the gg and the light in the room pulled toward her. The reaction was simple, the egg absorbed it all. But what was even more interesting was that the ridges on the egg seemed to glow with light elemental mana.

She turned and looked at Walker, he handed the bracelet back to her and she started to try to think of what to say. ”You have to write a new song, donʼt you?” He understood that she was thinking about how she would contract this monster and make a proper bind. It was clear that she resonated with it when she whispered to it.

It was stronger than she had expected and she would be ready to give it whatever it needed to hatch.

”Take it and care for it. I want written logs of its growth and any signs of what it might need to hatch other than light elemental mana. Itʼs part of the price you will pay. It is valuable to my progress.” Alice nodded as soon as she heard this. Ash was being very professional and Alice understood the value of such an egg in her hands. The king of the deep cave showed respect as well.

He liked the professional attitude that Ash had and felt that they would work well together.
