Master Of None

Chapter 1135 – 1135. Not Worthy

Midnight pulled at Walker's arm. He had sat down looking at the setting sun over the lakes. Somehow he found the sight to be calming even though he had just faced a devious demon. It was just more to the fact that he had pushed himself mentally and physically with stress. "Sorry about that, I hope I didn't make you worry." He gave Midnight a few pats on the head before she relaxed herself. 

"You know, that frost breath surprised me. You never showed off your progress. I thought you had been neglecting your elemental breath attacks training. But here you are freezing entire rooms with ice." The praise made Midnight happy enough to jump a little. She had wanted to train other elemental breath attacks but focused on the one so that she would be able to make more progress. She had fire, decaying breath, and now frost breath. The next goal she had was the wind elemental breath attack that might be able to slice through stone. 

"Do you know what happened to Gil and Alma?" Walker saw that Midnight looked back toward the castle. "I figured they would still be inside. I would assume that the water elf elders have been brought together and explained what happened?" 

"Yes, they have. Alma and Gil made sure they were seen to and they have been wrapping their heads around their current situation. It would be a good time for you to join us as the royal in charge of Genesis." Neil was waiting just by the door that Walker had gone out. He wanted to be patient since Walker was not like the dragons and dragonkin with intense stamina reserves. 

"I take it you explained the dragon relations to them?" Walker didn't think that Genesis should first be described as his city. However, he knew that for a dragonkin like Neil it was tradition. It would be incredibly hard for Neil to change the way he thought. It was impressive that Neil was even able to relax at all around Walker. The fact that they fought together was already part of the record books. 

"Of course. I could not allow them to potentially insult a lord. It would bring dishonor to all dragons and dragonkin. They were saved by a great royal who is changing the way the world turns. It is only right." Neil showed some of the reasons why he was acting in such a manner. This was not because Walker was just some royal. The attitude had been carved from the way Walker acted and worked. Now that Neil had seen him in action, he changed his mannerisms to reflect the newfound and powerful respect he had for Walker and his goals. 

"Thank you, Neil. I know it is hard to see someone go against some traditions. But right now you are with Midnight and I. You can stand beside us as the same representative. I want the dragons and dragonkin to be involved in Genesis as equals. If it takes hundreds of years to get there then I can handle that." Neil was speechless as Midnight led the way for Walker inside. He was having a hard time accepting how Walker saw the future because it was so different from what he knew. But it did make him smirk in the end. 

"Well look who it is. I thought you would look just as rough as I do." Leon had a few bandages from the razorwhip week and his body seemed to be pale compared to how it seemed before. The spear he had attached to his back was not resonating with water elemental mana as it had before. 

"I'm glad you look well enough. That was some move you used. I would like to train my spear skills with you some time." This was no lie. Walker knew that Leon was the best spear user he had ever met. If Leon trained with Walker then both could make improvements. 

"We can save that for when I have all these cuts and scrapes healed. After my skill, I may have lost some of my footing and was pulled on to the shore with a few of those…puddles? Melting demons? Puppets?" Leon had no idea what they had been but he had to fight a little more than he expected. 

"I'm just glad you didn't have to deal with those fish. Demonic hagfish looked brutal." 

"Oh, well…those were dealt with by the general. She swooped in and managed to pull three out of the water and drop them on to the beach for her troops to handle. It was impressive to see it happen all three in a row. The lake should be able to recover its normal ecosystem." Leon was glad to know that the natural fish and animals would be able to return to the lakes without worry from some evil monsters. 

"My cousin. I know we were wrong. But I cannot explain the actions of my fellow elders. We have decided to step away from leadership. Look at what we did to our own people! We are a shame and do not deserve to be elves. It would be better to return to the waters and feed the growing fish. Our nymphs and sprites are even afraid of us. We can not call on them." The voice came from not one but multiple water elves in a row. 

Walker stood just outside a large room with everyone looking at Gil, Scylla, and Alma. It was clear that Alma was at a loss. "You plan to run away and give up? How could elders do that? You may have been controlled by an evil being but you need to make that right. Stand for your people and show the world who the water elves should be. Genesis came to help you. Not to end you as well as that demon." Walker's entrance was timed perfectly. The water elves looked at him with wide eyes.
