Apparently, many of the guards on duty at the outside edges of Genesis lands had noticed a pillar of bright flames. This was an unintentional issue that came with Remey releasing the purest fire mana within miles. Naturally, It caused some issues.
The party had found at least sixty guards ready to march toward the issues that they believed the party had just left to handle. However, when they heard that it was a small ritual to help one of their members prepare for the upcoming battle, they were slightly embarrassed.
Walker had spent an hour approving of their actions. Protecting Genesis was their job. It was exactly what they needed to do. Especially since he had grown up with a guard as a father. Therefore, he was able to show them the right words to encourage them to be on their toes and move as quickly as they had this time no matter what.
Regardless of this little incident, the party had gone their separate ways. Gil's focus was with the elves. He had volunteered the next two days to completely be used making arrows and preparing whatever they could.
The elves that could sneak through shadows and hide in plain sight were the ones that needed the most preparations. They would be hiding within the marsh lands while the party baited out Envy. they would end up having the deadliest weapons to combat the many slimes that would surely arrive to attack them.
The reason that Gil knew that help would be needed was that he had begun to realize a lot about the way that the elves made arrows.
Simply put, he could sense mana better now. He had been caught up in thinking about his past experiences making arrows. Every single interaction he had was great for his and their growth. Until now, he had not thought of it as poor or full of flaws, just lessons to learn from.
However, with his personal growth, he realized that there was a lot that needed to be improved. The general channeling of manas in to an arrow could be enhanced. Runes used on arrows could be altered. Even the general materials might be better changed.
Ince example was using the spongy willow, a tree known to grow near small brooks because it needed the open air and the water to grow. This wood would never be used for arrows. However, he was foolish to think that.
Now that he could look back at his past experiences where he had ignored it as a material, he felt dumb. His mind now focused on the fact that it had excellent wind and water conductivity when related to those manas. Specifically, they could be used to make an arrow that would increase the mist in an area. An ideal arrow to use when trying to create a place for many soldiers to hide.
They could make many of these arrows, sneakily fire them while Gil partners with the brilliant slime to fight monsters. That way, he could better bait Envy in to a place where they could defeat him. Plain and simple.
Su's focus went to the focus on her body. But also the mana manipulation that she had with it. She had accepted a lot of herself and become a powerful half dragon. She had so much focus on earth and light mana, that she could tell she was unbalanced. Yet, she knew skills that used other manas now. She had to change that.
Simply put, she took a note from Walker's book. She was going to the mage tower to meditate. She would meditate for two straight days while switching elemental floors. This way, she could focus herself and ensure that she could both resist and use manas within her skills better.
Midnight followed suit with Su. Walker had expected that Midnight would stay with him to train with the wandering blacksmith. Learn more about unique flames. Learn more about other manas that she could not catch a hold of just yet.
Where he had been foolish in his thinking was simple, Midnight did not want to learn about space mana or time mana or death mana or even life mana. She wanted to grasp natural mana just like Walker. She wanted to be able to bring the elemental manas together within herself to be able to use them in one attack or just to generally strengthen her body as a whole.
Where Walker had been blind, was that he had believed that Midnight was focused on just getting stronger by learning the same things as him. Not grasping the depths. He had missed that she was behind in the focus on natural mana. She could grasp it, because she had a bond with him closer than many others did. Therefore, she knew she could learn it. She just needed more work to do so.
This left Walker with a small idea of what powers Midnight might show. Using natural mana to boost the strength of attacks and draw more individual mana sin to focus was ideal for Midnight. her dragon breath attacks would massively improve. Even the skeletal armor skill might be altered to reflect elemental properties. All things that would make Midnight much more powerful.
It was already expected that Remey would be recovering. All the royal dragons had decided to do the same. Gather as much mana as possible within themselves to be able to unleash larger attacks.
The only set back to that, was that Remey was the only one other than Mordant that would actually be able to come near where the baiting was happening. Morant could hide in the shadows. He could hide some people, but not every dragon. That would drain his mana too much and leave them all exposed. What if it took days to bait envy?
This meant that the dragons would need to be in full battle ready shape further away. Then they could rush over when the fighting started. They would be a little late to the event, but that was fine. It was enough to have them as back up for when the real fighting began to happen.
It put Walker's mind at ease that Remey would be beside Ignus gathering fire energy. He had some worries that she would not be able to adjust to her very unique new form. Yes, she was still Remey and just looked slightly different. However, she had changed at a very deep level because of her unique path. It meant it would still be a large adjustment.
Onyx was different though. He had already called every single young serpent together at the cathedral. He had specifically done so when he returned and the day had already ended.
This was not some small family meeting or meeting of a serpent race. It was a meeting to be able to explain that he was going to fight a massive battle.
The serpents were still young. They learned at a very fast rate because that was just what they needed to know. None of them learned as fast as Onyx had. He was special in that respect. The reason that they had to understand was that this was the beginning of many battles. At least a few larger battles to handle the remaining two demons that needed to be fought.
He explained this hard topic to them and opened up the chance to join the battle at their own risk. They were young. Some would not be able to fight at all. However, he was shocked and brought to emotional moments when he noticed that many heavenly serpents had already volunteered to join partners with light affinity healers.
lightsΝοvel.cοm That many of the abyssal serpents were training with those that had darkness affinity to help them hide in the shadows. When Alice joined in on their meeting with healers and some guards behind her, Onyx realized that many people had already come together to support the young serpent's desires. Not just the serpents supporting them. It was a very good moment that brought the cathedral in to full swing on preparations.
More healers on hand with partners just made things easier to fathom and prepare for.
Knowing that the party was prepared, Walker found himself working on armor and focusing on the manas within the runes being used. He also took the time to meditate around the unique flames. Even the smallest boost in understanding of all of them would help. Especially since he had just laid a finger on space mana. If he could grasp more, he might be able to use it.
Right now though, he was focused on the armor for Midnight and the armor of the other party members. He wanted to ensure that the entire party would be as best protected as possible. That way he could push away a little worry here and there from his mind. It would easily take the full two days too.
