Master Of None

Chapter 1147 – 1147. Thrilling

There was just enough time to convince the two owners of the ranch to send over five mountain eagles to help bring the water elves to Genesis. They had taken some convincing because they were not sure that the group was telling the truth. They had long known that the water elf territory was off limits and now being told that it was opening and would be rebuilding was an insane idea. 

Yet, After Walker had explained the story clearly along with the fact that he would be telling Elise to come back to them a visit, they agreed. There were also some of the first people to know of this change in territory people could travel so they were looking forward to the business it would bring. They planned to also send one of their ranch hands to negotiate some material transportation for the water elves to build back up. The water elves may have lost some things but they still had the wealth that they had accrued through many years. Lust hadn't so much as care for it since she was just raising an army to follow her every command. 

Midnight had been more caring of the journey while they were in the air on the mountain eagles. She wanted to try and jump down and fly herself. The only thing that stopped her was Walker who had a firm grip on her feelings. He could tell that she was even more motivated than usual after the talk of the royal dragon court. 

As they flew, Walker thought of the gifts he was bringing. He had the indigo pearl which he would be giving to Current since he had a relationship with him as another royal dragon. Now that brought the question of what else he should bring. He knew that if Adair came he was not supposed to give her a gift of the same quality since she was not a royal and only an elder. But he also knew that bringing things might be something that interests the other royals. He made a mental note to ask the wandering blacksmith to make a few elemental weapons. If possible he would ask for different elemental weapons or armors. They would be able to show that Walker cared about every elemental royal dragon and that he wanted to start a connection with them. 

However, Walker knew that this would be nothing in the grand scheme of things. He would need to show off his dominance over natural mana compared to the other dragons. He knew he would be weaker than them. That was not something he could avoid. But he would need to be able to show off the power he had so that they knew who he was and that he would not just bend to anything pushed on him. 

"Walker! We are descending!" Alma managed to shout over the wind as they started to head toward the ground. 

"Midnight, let loose!" Walker had held her back the entire time. He trusted that she would be able to glide down without issue since she had more than mastered that. The training she needed was in the fact that she could not flap her wings with enough strength to consistently take off and fly. But watching the excitement spark in Midnight's eyes as she unfurled her wings and the air took her was something Walker wanted to feel. 

Without even thinking, Walker looked within himself for his mana, which was completely full. He had been resting after their easy journey and the flight in the mountain eagles had not taxed his mana at all. He jumped off the back of the mountain eagle to its surprise and used his wind ripple skill. The sight of Walker stepping through the air next to Midnight was more than enough to shock her. "Come on! Can't you keep up?!" He nearly laughed himself silly while taking in deep breaths and large steps down through the air. 

Any idea that he may fear the heights was gone. He was full of exhilaration and joy. Midnight felt the same. He could feel their connection becoming stronger while the others looked at him as if he had gone inside. But Neil knew. He was a dragonkin. He had always had the feeling that he was meant to fly and wanted to explore the sky. That's why every breed of dragon and dragonkin lived in the mountains. It was where they were at home. 

This sight did not go unnoticed. Many of those out and about in the city doing their work saw Walker and Midnight moving through the air toward the ground. It didn't help that they chose the open square in front of the Genesis building as their landing space. This forced the mountain eagles to land there as well and the harpies nearby to rush away since they knew the mountain eagles were temperamental with other avian monsters. But nothing happened due to how strictly the mountain eagles were trained for their deliveries. That didn't mean they wouldn't try anything on their way out of the city though because they knew their job was done. 

"Perfect timing! I was just heading inside. Come with me you can report on the matters. The only member missing is Scylla." Clara happened to be just about to walk in to the Genesis building. She had Barry behind her and between them, no one could argue with the sudden change of direction. 

Walker couldn't help but think that it was strange how busy the city seemed while he was pulled away. But he was still catching his breath and sharing mischievous glances with Midnight. They were high on their little gliding trip and could not fully contain themselves. They didn't even notice the fliers that Gil, Neil, Alma, and Leon had pulled off the walls as they entered.
