Master of none - Chapter 2204: An Honest Future

“So, now that Midnight has broken records when it comes to how fast dragons can grow, do we need to start teaching her other things?” Walker was very worried that some of the

Younger dragons would start to take notice of Midnight. As her older brother, he was ready to beat those dragons down in to paste.

‘Walker, the next time you think of those things, remember that Midnight would literally shred anyone that dared to insult her or act poorly. She has a lot of good role models.”

Su’s words were very clear that if Walker continued to pursue these thoughts, she would take it as an insult and reason to scold him.

Naturally, Su was also thinking that she would keep things on track.

She was Midnight’s draconic guardian. A true draconic guardian would not allow anything untoward to happen to the dragon that they guarded.

Especially someone like Midnight who was pure and innocent.

“Look at us too though, we all grew a lot faster than we should.

We would still be considered kids if we were not as strong as we were. Plus with all of us changing literal races through the insane events, well, we might as well have aged fifty years each.

”

This was a little of an understatement. With the strength that they had, some of those most powerful within the world couldn’t even hold a candle to them now.

Especially with the fact that Walker himself was able to literally bring mana to do as he wished just with a few thoughts. Basic magic skills were just a formality in a way.

That aside, Walker thought about how it was very interesting to wonder what they all had the potential for now. They had outgrown any childishness in their actions.

Especially with the fact thatv they were some of the strongest leaders within genesis.

The best part about that, was that the party were not some hidden rulers or figures steeped in shadow and unknown mysteries.

They were out in the open. Standing and growing with everyone else.

They popped up here and there working on larger problems for the people. This was where the ideals of who and what leaders should be were growing from.

Many kingdoms had become used to the kings or rulers standing on high mountains looking down. The humans were certainly like that.

The very same could be said about the demi- humans who rarely had the chance to see their generals and kings outside of their places within the coliseum.

However, as Genesis set a new precedent, those kingdoms would be changing ever so slightly every day.

Those kings and rulers would eventually find that they were thought of as do nothing rulers. But the humans had already started to adapt to such things.

They had been some of the strongest to support and begun creating roads themselves towards Genesis for trade. Hence how they also began making their nobles travel those roads and move around to establish better conditions.

All of that alone had begun making the nobles seem more approachable.

It also helped weed out those with inflated egos and classist attitudes.

A good way for the changes to begin.

But back to the reality they faced, Midnight was standing much taller while the four moved back in to Genesis.

It was a very short while before they found that Mordant had taken up a walking pace next to them. He had effortlessly slipped through the shadows to wait and hear what had happened.

His eyes barely settling on Midnight before he focused on Walker. He had gotten used to Midnight not saying much.

“Midnight went through a large growth spurt. She’s not as large as one of the elder dragons.

But she is close. And I would bet that she can use natural mana as she wishes now.

Not to mention a little boost to life and death mana. Not that it’s usable.

More like they both revolve around her since she is focusing on becoming a force of the world still.”

“I can sense that.

She was asking a lot about how my dark mana works when I fight alongside the others. How to mix my mana with theirs.”

Mordant had not hidden that he taught Midnight a few things here and there. She had gone to them asking after all.

“It will be interesting to see what happens now.” It was clear that Midnight had already grown more than what anyone expected.

But Mordant didn’t show much worry.

“Young ones will go through a few growth spurts.

One day they are just eating and absorbing manas like they are starving, the next day they fall asleep and they are double their size. She takes that to another level, only sleeping for a few hours at the most.

Very impressive. I assume it’s the purity of manas that she received through bonds with you.

You are well above that of any other taming that could be.”

It seemed that Mordant had thought about the uniqueness of the skills that Walker used.

In essence, the way he was viewing the bonds were not as a tamer to a monster but instead as a clear channel between family bloodlines and even more. Or closer to the soul itself.

Able to share everything and anything with one another. A new form of bond that could potentially be passed down through generations as the dragons did with language and instincts.

“I think I know what you are thinking, and I would assume you are right with that. Midnight is a true dragon champion, but she changed the rare golden dragon heart she had.

Instead, it’s a world dragon heart or more now. She’s fused her affinities that she has as a true dragon champion and also with her bind with me.

Now she has a natural mana affinity along with the lingering death and life mana affinity which are deeply part of natural mana.”

The explanation was a lot to take in.

It was a lot for Walker to say. If Mordant didn’t have Walker to explain this, he wouldn’t have the senses to touch upon the intricacies of natural mana and the way they interact with life and death manas.

He was a darkness dominator dragon, not anything other or more.

“You know that this will cause problems one day.

Manipulating life mana within oneself to ensure that they can change things about themselves. Even their race.

We will have to make laws. Rules to follow.

Limits to prevent becoming an immortal chasing race.”

The topic shifted to a very heavy one, luckily, Su expected this would appear one day.

“We will set rules for a thousand years at least. We will make sure that no one forgets what happened to break the balance of the world.

So much more can come of uplifting one another than using each other as tools. We just have to show it.

”

“And If Su can’t ensure that they follow a good example with eveyrones’ help, we will dole out appropriate punishment as the elemental planes do. They have the strength and ability to ensure that thousands of years of imprisonment can be done.

Then an entire return of a soul to natural flow. Impossible things to us as we are now, but in the future…” Walker trailed off thinking about the potentials still yet to be realized.

There was a long road still to go.

“Looks like I will head out for now.

I just wanted to keep us all honest about the future.” Mordant smiled a little toward Midnight before he stepped in to his own shadow and moved

Away.

But in the next moment, a burst of heat welcomed Remey who landed on Midnight with a bear hug. Ignus just flapped his wings and landed next to them.

“He ran away because he can’t handle speaking with me. How dull.”

Ignus had been trying to get Mordant to speak with everyone lately, but Mordant had avoided everyone while focusing on a few of his elder dragons learning to take a dragonkin form.

“It’s Midnight’s growth spurt! We need to celebrate! She’s going to get new clothes and we are going to throw a party! I even have some new teas we can make too!” Midnight didn’t shy away from Remey’s excitement.

She had understood what happened as soon as she saw

Midnight.

“Then I guess I should go get Gil and Alma.

they will be pretty happy to have a little celebration. Especially since they have been way too focused on melding the historical elven documents.

Plenty of reading to melt their brains.” Walker laughed a little as he stepped in to the air moving ahead of the others.

He felt like this would be a fun night.
