Master Of None

Chapter 1137 – 1137. See The World

Debris was everywhere. The results of Leon's skill had brought a lot of wood and other items in to the water which resurfaced After Walker had used the purifying pulse skill. Things may have been cleaned and safe but they were not cleared. "I knew there would be a lot but this is more than I expected." Gil pulled a large piece of what had been a boat on to the shore. 

"But it's a good chance to make everything right. The water elves had a big job of demolishing and cleaning before Leon's skill. Now they just have to rebuild and help with the clean up. I can also use my skills to push everything toward the far shore." Walker was planning to do two sweeps on each lake with the help of some water mages. 

They could ban together and use their ability to manipulate the water. This would push the floating debris and that which fell to the bottom of the lake to one shore. The job was easy. Just pull everything out and sort through to take what is usable. Whatever was not usable could be dried in the sun as the season warmed and used for fires or other things. It was a sure thing that someone would have a great idea to reuse a lot of what was broken. 

"Well, if you two will be cleaning up I might as well join too." Leon caught up with Gil and Walker before they went under the water to find the water mages. "I think it's only right that I help clean up my mess. Although, I might not be able to do much when it comes to magic. I'm all physical. My magic skills are only related to my spear." Part of Leon had always felt sad that he did not have the magic ability. Water magic in the water was very powerful. Unfortunately, not everyone was born with it even if they had an affinity for water. Leon had been blessed with the knack for spear arts and that was what he fell back on. 

"I don't think they will be upset with the mess. They would have to see everything in a broken state. It should be better that they see everything cleaned and waiting for a new generation of buildings. It's almost inspiring." Gil clapped Leon on the shoulder trying to cheer him up. The three laughed though when Leon realized that Gil had accidentally hit a bruised part of his shoulder. 

As Walker did this, Alma had just managed to get away from the elders who were understandably excited now that they had their free will back. "They look to have run you a little ragged. A lot of pressure, but it is for the best." Scylla was a little worried about Alma. The more that they spoke to the elders the more worried that Alma seemed to be. Luckily, the water elf elders didn't seem to notice. 

"Oh, it's just that so many elves were taken advantage of. They did not deserve to be used as fodder for an army. This is the forced grouping of races. How could it not mess with someone?"

 Alma spoke this and walked away as if she was looking for someone. Scylla just let her be but wondered what was really going on. 

"I would say she is distracted. Her mana is not the same as it was before this trip. She seemed to carry more pressure with her. It is similar to a newborn royal." Neil was not missing this fact. He felt that Scylla could beat him and was willing to speak his thoughts to her openly. It was just respectable not to hide such things from a potential ally that could have his back. 

"I noticed that too. But I compared it to the feeling Walker has. If I know right, he has a skill called royal aura or something. Many royals and leaders get such skills that have the same effects but are named slightly differently. She is supposed to be the next queen of the forest elves…I just can't help but think that she has a stronger aura than that of the current forest elf queen." Scylla and Neil fell in to thought as they started to move toward those who needed help. 

This left Midnight alone with a group of half demons and half elves. They were interested in the dragon they had watched tear open the bars holding them. "You ask her if she can speak."

"Dragons can't talk! Mom said they are monsters!"

"No, they aren't. My dad told me stories of water dragons that made these lakes before the elders even came here." 

The three argued. It was understandable. They had been born with resistance to Lust's poisons and illusions and thrown in to the dungeons with their parents. They were also half elf and half demon making them feel less comfortable around either. Now they were only able to compare what they had been told. 

In a few blinks of an eye, Midnight found a shabby curtain and wrapped herself in it. The changing of shapes made the three fearful until Midnight popped out her dragonkin looking head. "The dragon changed! Look! Look!"

"We see it. She's like me! Look, she has horns and ears!" 

They were enamored by the similarities in features. One of the half demon and half elves shared the fact that they had a tail with Midnight. It was a great change in atmosphere. "Can…Can you take us outside? We want to see the lakes..for the first time." Midnight tied the curtain around her like a dress the way that Lisa had shown her and grabbed the hand of the girl that had asked. She would gladly escort them to see the world for the first time in their lives, even if she couldn't yet speak with them.
