Master Of None

Chapter 2799: 27799. More Potential

As the different ships anchored in to the rocky bottom, a few of the dwarven golems returned to the ship to show their small mapping orbs. They had found outcropping under the water that had become coral covered hide aways for monsters. This was good for hunting and for exploring while the ships were here.

This would also allow for the experienced merfolk to come and look at these places. They could see what plants and monsters they were used to live there and if there was the potential to use this as a good place for their people to live.

It was hard to consider that these guards had partially come with this desire in mind. Walker hadnʼt put a greater amount of thought in to the moral examples of this. Yet, he also understood that some merfolk would never travel to Genesis because they would miss the water. They would want to feel the changing tides of the oceans around them at all times.

It was just what and who they were.

There was nothing wrong with it.

Otherwise, Walker also considered that the merfolk who had come here to explore were going to be doing an immense duty to the future of Genesis and the exploration this entire massive continent would have to offer the future generations.

While some people would not try and glimpse so far ahead, Walker had a familiar feeling while he and the party had watched the guards and supplies being swapped between flying and floating ships.

The continents that they lived were not necessarily the only or largest there could be. Once they were entirely mapped and people had settled in to researching ruins along with living on the land, the adventure would disappear in some ways.

New places untouched would be impossible to find.

Ruins yet to be exposed and shared wouldnʼt be seen any more.

Even the new monsters and herbs would become something experimented and grown to exist rather than a mystery of unknown out in the world somewhere.

Everything would shift to purely going in and out of the elemental planes. That would happen way too quickly making people focus less on the world where they came to unite even more closely with one another. Changes that would happen over many generations wouldnʼt occur because the flow of how the world and all that made up the world would lose its pacing causing no change.

People could potentially lean toward living in the elemental planes only and forgetting the world over the years instead of becoming more unified with it.

What Walker felt from the potential he saw with the time mana resonating with him, was a better course that might be slower but would allow for more. Allow for greater growth in everything the world had to offer.

Explore this new to them lost continent. Find all of the potential the world had to offer as it changed and became the flow it was meant to have.

Only in doing that could Walker find more of the potential he believed everyone to have as they unified even more.

”Hey boss!”

Snapping out of his thoughts, Walker realized that he had allowed himself to meditate while considering exactly what he had begun to believe that time mana was. He was resonating with it while considering the potential of this new continent and how it could help everyone, not just everyone, but the growth of the world itself too.

”Yes Mela?” Walker didnʼt have much to say, the arcane puppeteer mela was brash and had been isolating herself the entire time since they had gotten on to the flying ships. The entire expedition for her had been one where she was just focusing on her puppets.

”I have some testing to do. You said you had some summing puppet skills or doll making skills too, show me.” With a new train of thought in curiosity, Walker was wondering why she would want to see his skills when they were temporary and not as unique or advanced as her own since she could make puppets she controlled and were physical.

Regardless, Walker used some burnable straw and for the first time used it as fuel to create a flame doll. The moving doll of flames only drifts in the air in a vague humanoid form. It was only unique to the fact that it had no thought and could only follow orders Walker offered.

”I can do the same with earth using more mana, I assume water and wind too, but I do not use skills like this often. They cost materials to work and they drain mana. They also canʼt fight as intelligently as I can.”

It was why Walker didnʼt even go looking in to magic like this. The dwarven golems were entering a huge prospect of growth too. There would surely be golems made by all races much better than if he focused on skills like this.

”Itʼs not the same, you arenʼt connecting mana to it and you to make it hold still. You should just make a straw doll.” Mela huffed, obviously not seeing everything she wished to learn from the skill that Walker displayed.

”Itʼs good for seeing how manas move. Useful at least. So I can do this better.” She rolled her eyes and made the familiar puppet he had already seen move. He had seen the small threads she wove with her hair and her mana move to connect to a shield wielding puppet.

However, when she moved her fingers, the thread absorbed her mana and so did the puppet holding twin shields. In that moment, rune formations burst to life and the two shields became covered in ice for a few breaths. Just enough to strengthen defenses.

”A bit better.”

”So thatʼs why you wanted to see how I did it. You wanted to know how to smooth the mana out as it activates the rune formations and changes from your mana to elemental mana being manipulated.” Grasping a little more of what Mela could do in terms of her puppets also helped Walker. She had some good defensive abilities in terms of the puppets. Meaning that her skill could allow her to travel and always have bodyguards even without other people being with her.

It also would allow for her to be her own adventuring party if she made more offensive puppets. ”You made that puppet styled after Su because of her shields and defensive abilities. You should speak with her about training some time. She would certainly help you learn more about defending yourself and how the puppet should move.”

Walker wasnʼt just saying this since he was still considering potential. He was doing this because Mela had been a demon freed from the demons who had enslaved their own people. Pushing Mela to have more strength and self security would lead to her being able to face the worse life she used to have and grow now.

”If thatʼs an order sure.” The annoyed tone didnʼt leave but Walker felt that there was some happiness in her tone too.

”I have seen you with a few designs when I first scouted you out. Those small bird puppets, are they ready to scout and start sensing the wind currents better?” Walker knew that this doll had been made so that the win could be sensed better and recorded through her mana threads to other mages. It was a very good idea for a doll and creation of a skill.

”That was a project. I have a hundred carved up. They are easy to make. Small things.” Walker waved for a few mages he had seen watching the changes in the wind as their duties. ”Work with these two. I want to see your skill now.” He smirked because he knew that Mela came out here to test exactly this out.

Despite the rough personality, Mela adored the hero party who helped her. She wanted to show them all at some point that they had saved someone worth saving. While she would never say it out loud, Walker understood.

He too saw debts in everyone who offered to teach him when he had first been searching for his system. Now, he was uniting and pushing for all people to have a better future. He was paying off debts too.

Small birds, dolls made to mimic humming birds, flashed out of some hidden space. Mela didnʼt have to say she had a spatial skill, Walker already sensed it when they had met. The dolls hidden away started moving with brilliant wind green rune formations flashing on their bodies. They recorded the flow of wind as the ships moved in the clouds. Sharing everything the wind mages needed to research the area.
