Master Of None

Chapter 2372: 2372. Spreading News

It was more than just Remeyʼs new experimentation to make an undead melting potion as she called it. Genesis had taken a turn with a new idea that an entire land was filled with an odd mana.

The theories about other forms of mana that could be appearing in the expanded ancient areas of the world had been born before this undead land was discovered to have grown from the undead ruins they already knew.

Since this was just enhancing those theories it put fuel on the fire.

Many people believed that the lava fields would hold a hidden area where there might be more manas mixing together. The fact that earth mana and metal were considered the same for such a long time had finally been broken as some believed that metal was a condensed form of earth mana with even more unique characteristics.

This idea came from the fact that metals had other affinities to them usually. They Were not always purely earth in nature other than the most basic of manas. One such was the white gold that had been discovered and hoarded by nobles.

While some nobles were pursuing this theory because they enjoyed the color and boasting rights if they had items made with white gold, there was more to it.

Light mana affinity was mixing with the earth mana in the metal. Making the white gold a dial elemental affinity material. Proving that they might be mixing well enough to be called more than just metal and more than just a light material.

If there was an area within the lava fields that gave birth to metals as the heat from magma cooled and shifted, then what if that area was shining with light from the sky? Could that make a pool of lava that constantly produced small pieces of white gold which could be harvested?

Or would it create a monster that had white gold as part of their bodies?

This was all a potential theory that some of the nobles passed around since they cared about the looks of white gold. However, the healers spoke about it for different reasons than that. They cared about it because it could help them.

While a magic a staff or some other magical focus for them to use healing magic skill through were important, white gold was not prevalent enough in nature that a large amount to make an entire staff was possible.

That didnʼt mean that something else couldnʼt be made.

Using it to make jewelry or adornments for clothing was perfect. It allowed for light mana to be channeled through them which could boost the effectiveness of light mana gathered and also the spells used by the healer. It was definitely worth preparing for the best healers or those that had unique skills based in light and healing.

Since this was something that both healers and the nobles of multiple kingdoms had begun to push forward, the gossip about the potential materials only became more and more prevalent. Even people who did not care about it had begun to mention it causally.

Walkerʼs mother had been one of the people that heard this the most. As she had a restaurant and expanded it in to one of the biggest establishments in the city og Genesis right now, she had a focal point for every tiny bit of gossip. That has attracted a new guild which had just been established.

The information guild, simple and blunt, was a guild that had availability for the librarians, scouts, and even for some of the news reporting groups to gather themselves in. While it was also for some of the independent scouts who traveled the world without being attached to anything, some people believed it was better that they established themselves than having some secret dark alley group doing this.

Whatever information they shared was guaranteed in magical contacts or would be given with full transparency that everything may not be accurate. When the Genesis representatives saw this application to make this guild, they pushed it through with the goal to have reliable information about hope to access certain class skills available to all.

They also had a major connection to the education system being built. Some of the smaller basic education courses were being created by the information guild and the Genesis representatives in tandem. Allowing for the smallest schools to be built which focused on the basic laws, mathematics, and even some cultural aspects that Genesis was developing. It even focused on the Genesis map which taught the young how to navigate the city better.

This wasnʼt the important thing here. Because there was so much gossip, this newly established information guild was giving out the location to find white gold most commonly. They were also recommending the ways of storage and constantly updating the price of this climbing in value metal.

The idea that other metals might be able to be found because of the growth in mana also came to be. The dwarven craftsmen had recently put in requests for any new metals and other higher quality metals. Even the Wandering blacksmith had taken a moment from his major projects to be present when the Genesis representatives began to consider whether they should place rules on the lava field explorations.

Ignus could have stopped many people from going to the lava fields. However, he had seen the draw of people wanting to go there. He also recognized it as one of his previous homes. He had even participated in the volcanic events there so he knew that it was changing and going to be different from now and in to the future than what he remembered.

When he saw the wandering blacksmith at the meeting, he convinced the other representatives to allow exploration but he would have some of his elder fire dragons patrol the lava fields in general. They could not cover the entire area, but they could be a small peace at mind group that could keep an eye out for any larger dangers. Specifically, if there were ancient monsters.

It was why there were also a large amount of fire affinity dragonkin who made it a goal to return to the lava fields and explore. They knew very well that there could be materials there from ancient time resurfacing. Materials that were helpful to the dragons and to them as those who followed the dragons.

If there had not been so much activity throughout the world, many people would have already been in the lava fields gathering materials. These rare metals had been sent all over the place due to the volcanic events with an ancient monster. Since that was the case, many unique materials were there for the taking if someone went looking.

Ideally, those materials could be brought back and sold or used. The Wandering blacksmith would easily pay a high price along with the other powerful craftsmen. The researchers would be willing to sponsor those who went out to explore. Even better, the Genesis council might even give awards to those who helped make large advancements. This didnʼt even consider those that were in guilds which could also give some awards.

After hearing all of this, there were two things that perfectly matched up.

First, that the lava fields had become a focus for the people regardless of the other talks about the land of the undead and about the cloud fairy race arriving in Genesis.

Second, that the floating ship was about to be tested and rise to the skies.

People trusted and believed that the floating ship first of its kind would be successful. They did not doubt it whatsoever. Everyone heard the details of how hard people had been working on it. The new classes that came to be because of it alone were miraculous.

So, why would anyone doubt that these two things could be put together?

”Today we announce that the first expedition and test flight for the floating ship will be to bring a total of one hundred people to the outer areas of the lava fields. They will be able to explore the lava fields while the floating ship has a five day test period of floating in place, traveling the open area, and other important resistance tests to various manas in the area.”

That announcement became the one and only talk of Genesis. The one hundred passengers would be elected by various guilds who each had a specific number of tickets. Otherwise, everyone would get news on the tests and findings using the communications crystals and the newly formed communication guild publishing the news and sending it out with the mail carriers and announcers.

Walker and the others had gotten the same announcements when they checked the communication crystals. Remey felt that she didnʼt need to bother, but Walker wondered if he should head there too since he could get Alice something she might need. Gil was ignoring it for other important things while Midnight and Onyx were the same. But Su, found it interesting.
