Master of none

"There are eighteen demi-humans with the ability to manipulate plants in a similar way as you can. Just because they have similar skills does not at all mean that you are the one to lead them.

You should focus on the little extinct plant recovery project you boast so much about.

"Scylla knew that phishing this subject to the forefront of her argument with Alma was a win for her.

Everyone knew that Alma had always wished to recover the potentially extinct plants lost to the elven forest.

That desire had only grown as Alma had found that an entire continent existed that possessed some of those thought to be extinct plants.

Beyond that, some of the plants had just become dormant due to the low amount of certain manas within the world. They could be brought back!

"You would like that, then you could make another group in to a fighting force full of brutish idiocy.

But I won't let you just order the elves around and ruin their ability to commune with the land and the forests."

And this was what Gil was worried would happen.

Now Aklma was insulting the methods that Scylla used to train those soldiers under her and even that came asking for training. She had already trained multiple elves who had grown much more vicious in their styles of fighting.

However, this had been received by many elves as a bad thing since it went against some of their more elegant styles and general practices. Meaning, that the elves did not all enjoy the demi-human battle styles which were being mixed in with their own more tame styles.

This had been brought to Alma and she had begun to detest it to a degree.

Enough that she had learned that when insulting the new methods used by Scylla to alter other existing methods, Scylla would get high tempered.

"Oh, I forget that you would prefer that your precious elves would remain weak.

It's better to let them be the fodder for our forces rather than powerful protectors. Let's see how that goes."

Just as Scylla took a step forward and Alma reached in to a bag of seed on her waist, Gil stepped between them.

"Now that's why either of you are the wrong choice for being in charge of this group."

He looked at their glares now that he had made himself the focus of both of their attention. Giul cursed himself internally a little.

He knew that it was important to establish these groups of soldiers. Not just because they would be valuable to learn from as classes were developing in so many ways for every race that information was becoming valuable to everyone.

It was also because they would be groups rotating through all the lands of the Genesis alliance to protect the people.

Just a group of five could go to a single city and ensure that a whole wall of thorns or other plants acclimated to the environment would grow.

That would defend a large area and give the local soldiers and guards a better base of overall defenses. Always a benefit when it comes to the monsters within the wilderness that may not be known well enough yet.

"I will take the lead on selecting the team leaders for each of these groups we send out. The groups going to the larger cities will be less experienced with only an experienced team leader.

That way they can be safer while learning and growing their skills."

The decision made the most sense.

A few of the potential class holders were very young. That meant they would need to go with their families or even be unable to participate in much other than learning for a few years.

Choosing this solution could allow the younger members a chance to rapidly grow rather than be at risk all the time.

While being trained through hardship was often a good thing for someone, there was a line on where that hardship went from negative to positive.

"The older and more experienced class holders with the skills to better handle their mana, the overall wilderness situation, and also communicating with nearby kingdoms will go to smaller towns. They will be in pairs or groups of three depending on their strength and also on the size of the place they are defending.

"

As Gil said this, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Alma and Scylla. His intentions were not to intimidate them, but to show that he had already decided this.

Mostly because he knew that both were stubborn and would fight for their own beliefs to the edges of the world if they needed to.

"And Scylla, aren't you supposed to be focusing on the Sigil continent exploration? Walker will be going there to explore the unmoving clouds.

You can fly using their steps in the air. You are able to help fight head on if there is a battle in the sky.

The royal dragons do not have the ability to just leave right now. They are the best group to defend the other kingdoms with their speed and power.

"

This was just another important point to make. Since Gil had been busier than usual with all of the speculation about wilderness areas and more, he kept a close eye on who would and would not be leaving Genesis in the next days.

"Oh, and Alma, you mentioned that the alchemy guild had requested more herbs from the elven herbalism research. You even said that you would be visiting those treetop greenhouses to check on the progress for how many can be used to develop more antidote, healing, mana, and even light affinity potions.

All for the potential dangers that might be faced in the next focus on defensive building."

Gil had her there.

She wanted to argue with him, but this wasn't just an argument she could throw out because she didn't like what she was hearing. She had to remain focused since this situation required her to be a ruler and representative of the elves.

Not to be an emotional individual who wanted their way.

Both turned around and Gil swore he felt a future problem forming.

But if he had to take a small hit here or there, it would be fine. Instead, he could return to his thoughts about the various classes able to grow plants with speed like Alma could.

He had been able to learn a great deal from the elves and also from Alma. where things were changing were the other races gaining similar classes.

The dark mers from the demi-human lands in particular were getting the speed farmer class or the plant weaver class. These two classes had shown similar skills that Alma had but instead, they were more focused to places they deemed as farmland.

While this was a specific requirement to use some of their class skills, it also meant that there could be a more defined line of protection between these different classes.

If the class requirements were met by creating a strip of thin farmland right in front of the main walls, then the plants grown and weaved or controlled would be able to remain there without constantly drawing mana.

It also meant that with the right care, these walls of plants could become permanent fixtures of defense which would only grow and get stronger over a longer period of time.

There were other benefits depending on the selected plants, but those could be worried about when it came to a later date.

Especially if they had medicinal or edible qualities.

This left Gil with a few orders to give out and plans to make.

He just needed to get to work.

"I wonder if Remey is suddenly stuck with all these things too?" Gil laughed imagining that Remey had a desk full of paperwork waiting for her right now.

A slight sneeze surprised Remey while she looked at the crates left in the delivery area of the alchemy guild. She had wanted to go out in to the wilderness as well.

However, she had just managed to become more trapped within the alchemy guild since so many potions had been

Requested.

She had already developed ways to take the high tier potions created and water them down to make weaker versions better used for general healing.

However, the numbers were still too low for healing and mana potions. It was the ingredients though.

They needed the herbalists to push more plants to grow. No, they needed the herbalists to just grow even higher quality herbs which could be used to make grand health or grand mana potions.

If that happened, then there would be a very high chance that those grand health and mana potions could be watered down to create thousands of weaker potions.

"I have to go to the herb fields again after checking these crates."

Her mind was made up.
