Master Of None

Chapter 2169 2169. Dragonoid Forces

The change in tone and seriousness could have thrown anyone for a loop. Walker and the party remained calm though. They had been in situations that had been kept more tense. The battles they had were often life and death. What shocked Walker, was that the mana around was clearly influenced by the way that the light devouring dragon moved. It was much clearer to sense them since they radiated manas that influenced the elemental planes. Therefore, he could imagine that when they were in the world, the same thing might happen. Some monsters and people often radiated manas. But what if they had never kept their mana in check? What if their affinities were so high that there were certain aspects that leaked out and potentially harmed others?

For example, if someone with a very high affinity for water mana constantly gathered water mana around them to the point that it became ice, then what would happen? Frost and ice would always be around them. The very air might be cooler when they were around. It could cause some issues. Multiply that by someone who had always been in pure mana of some form. Along with dense mana of some form. Well, it would not end up as the safest area to be. It was something that Walker would have to consider. He also recalled the light griffin that had been summoned once upon a time. It was a very dangerous monster that had a greater light affinity. Just being around it meant that there was pressure and power. An oppressive area that could scare those at lower levels and worst case, harm people too. If this was multiplied by ten, then that was the danger that would be around if this light devouring dragon came to the world without methods to perfectly control their aura. Something that had not needed to be considered before. From what Walker knew though, he was also becoming this way. A reason he needed to focus on mana control now as well. That way if he became that powerful he would not harm anyone based on emotions. Many people could have issues if that were to happen. Being able to protect people, sometimes meant from the hero themself. This aside, it only took a few minutes for there to be signs that other light dragonoids were appearing. They had rushed over as soon as they had been notified that they were needed in force. An oppressive force of light mana which formed in to weapons in their hands proved that their control over their affinities was greater than a dragonkin. The differences were not just there, they had much more agility from what Walker could see. They also exhibited more control in their emotions. Their loyalty was the same as dragonkin though. Walker could tell that they were acting with the utmost seriousness toward the orders of their leading dragon. "This is so much more than what we thought. We have barely seen anything compared to what we have been told is in the light elemental plane." From Su's point of view, everything had gotten larger and larger as they moved through the elemental planes in chase. They had barely even touched some of the elemental planes to be fair. Yet here they were making more bonds with dragons and another form of dragonkin.

"Much more? It's like ten whole worlds more. We keep ending up in these positions with someone else trusting us. Now this dragon just accepted a mana contract which we didn't know worked like that?" to be fair, Remey had not expected any of this. She was still on edge about how the light devouring dragon had so easily seen through their races and ended up trusting them. That was most likely due to their connection to dragons and clear honesty. Many people would be able to sense the truth and lie in their words. Not just because they would see the ways that the party acted. No, it would mostly be how their mana changed when they lied or told the truth. Not many people could stop their mana from moving slightly with a lie.

"It's because brother was honest with them through and through. He does not just ignore the cultures and shows what he should to bond with them." While Onyx had not begun to meditate again, he could still take his opinion clearly. Especially with how he could sense the dense light mana which was very nourishing to him. The more that all these dragonoids released along with the light devouring dragon the better for him. He was taking advantage of it. The importance of truth did make a lot of difference. "They already gathered together and have a plan to march." Gil's focus went on the light devouring dragon preparing to cover them all in a larger amount of light mana. He could tell it was a method of travel and also a method of sensing changes in the nearby light elemental plane. The more light mana that the light devouring dragon had, the clearer it was that he could utilize it for various things. It was more reminiscent of how Walker uses elemental manas. Or at least that was the thought that Gil had. "I am prepared to take you all with us. Please do not shake away the light mana which I am controlling." The light devouring dragon did not fail to warn them as a dense light spread over the now sixty light dragonoids and the party. The mana swept over the party and they felt their bodies lighten. With light mana in general, there was often a purifying or a buffing effect when skills were used. Some were more defensive or offensive, but the common buff skills proved to be the most used. "It's called light speed buff, we aren't teleporting or moving with space mana too. Instead, we are just going to be moving much faster. Stay focused and expect to feel a bit off." From what Walker sensed and understood, this light speed buff was one of the highest light mana buffs there was.

The step he took was nearly enough to cover triple the distance as a normal step. All because his momentum was visited by light itself.

Many people used light affinity buffs for defense, but trying to move as fast as light itself? Now that was something which could be called impossible. Now, Walker understood it was a matter of purity and density in light mana which held those with light affinity back from greater speed buffs.

As time went on, those in Genesis would surely be able to use this skill or similar skills. The manas were becoming denser there, so it made sense that they could and would achieve this level of strength.

From Midnight's growls, Walker could tell she was enjoying this high class buff. She was moving much faster while also using it as a chance to grasp more light mana. She could easily use a much more potent light dragon breath right now if she needed to.

"You said this area is full of boundaries. That is why the manas are thinner. But does that mean we are close to the chaotic manas outside what is balanced?" Walker food. It was easy to come in line with the light devouring dragon. He had remained in his dragonoid form to stay friendlier with the party right now. He had a deal with them so that was the least he could do to show continued respect. "We are not close to the dangers of those places. We are near it enough though. We must patrol this area since it is where planes mix. Where the new planes begin to become one with the purer elemental planes or become planes within the boundaries."

This put Walker at ease. It meant that the death elemental plane which the immortal king was after couldn't be nearby nor could it be strong enough for him to gain much power if it was somehow nearby.

"More undead." Walker and the light devouring dragon sensed it immediately. The larger number of undead had literally displaced manas nearby while preparing attacks. "More elder elemental skeleton mages. They are being released with skeleton warriors. No, those are another kind of undead similar to skeleton warriors." With Walker's frustration growing, they all stopped moving only to find the wall of undead left to block them. The immortal king had been sensing them in his tail. They would need to handle this road block if they wanted to move forward. "My soldiers, purify the stain on the elemental planes. Your fight is here. Mine is ahead." A mentality that the light devouring dragon possessed was that he would take the most dangerous opponents. Right now, he was leaving the dragon lids to fight the skeletons and skeleton mages. Not because he thought them weak, but because he and the party sensed a more powerful undead just ahead of them.
