Master Of None

Chapter 2356: 2356. Aspects Of Light



The large amount of mana changing flow around the world caused many mages to be broken from meditation. This wasn't the only thing though. Plenty of those with a greater sensitivity for mana in general sensed it all too clearly.

While this was nothing dangerous, it did cause the rune carvers worries. This was because the elemental rune formations were affected for a slight time. Proving that all the safeguards to protect their rune formations had been incredibly valuable. But the older rune formations were damaged causing many different reactions.

The break down fo the peddler runes forced Genesis and other kingdoms to begin their action plans for just this situation.

Within the Genesis building, it had been theorized that the changes in mana across the world might have various effects. Besides the chances that monsters, plants, and people would change, there was the fact that existing aspects of their kingdoms would be affected.

Thus many kingdoms had already been altering and updating things like rune formations. Especially on the guard armors and other important defensive aspects of their cities, towns, and villages. This had been the best move since this sudden shift in mana flow caused some damage that was mostly mitigated due to the already changed rune formations.

Those that had been damaged had been prepared to be replaced and now were being replaced fr shut down at a rapid rate. Many guards had mobilized to escort those with the expertise to handle these issues. The speed that it happened was immaculate.

Not that any of this was on Walker's mind after they had managed to break the blockage of manas. He was mostly focused on their situation.

After the light mana had flowed out, Rise and done a significant amount of effort to slow the light mana pouring out until it adjusted. While it had been only a short ten minutes, to her, it had felt like hours. That was just the result of pressure on her mind and the sheer amount of light mana that had flowed out.

For Onyx, he was forced in to a slumber. While he had not gathered all the light mana since that would have been impossible. He had absorbed so much that his body had been unable to handle it right now. Therefore, he needed to rest so that his body could properly process it and use it as nourishment.

Walker could sense the higher purity light mana that was within Onyx. It told him that Onyx would needed a lot longer to absorb it than what he had needed in the past. However, Walker also noticed that Onyx had not been alone at all. Instead of just Onyx, there had been another hiding in his shadow that had been pulled out when Onyx had taken his full form. Someone familiar.

"I still don't know what you were thinking. You came with Onyx and Alice knew it. That I understand. But you also put him and yourself at risk by taking in a lot more of that light mana too. That's why you need to rest. So sleep and I will have a word with Alice about whether or not you will be allowed to head out of the cathedral for some time."

Walker's words were out of worry. He knew that Aurora had been trying to grow stronger. She had been following the healing aspects of the cathedral and becoming a better heavenly serpent. However, she had become much more attached to Onyx since Onyx had shown the drive and model of someone who truly cared about their dual serpent race.

Since Walker knew there was certainly more to it than just what could be seen from the outside, he didn't have a chance to think about this. Aurora had learned to communicate in the same way that Onyx had. He she had learned to communicate mentally. But instead, she followed Alice's lead and did not speak much.

Regardless of that, she was following in Onyx's footsteps. She had been the first heavenly serpent to hatch and grow, proving that she had the chance to grow to lead the heavenly serpents too. But more than that, she was clearly trying to match Onyx. hence why she had come here too with the permission of Alice. And Alice would have supported Aurora no matter what, Walker knew this.

"I don't know what I would do if Aurora had been injured and I had to tell Onyx that or Alice that." He was stressed out and the slightly risky situation they had been in did not help. But Rise was still conscious even though she kept saying she would properly rest, so Walker was speaking with her and avoiding his own mental fatigue.

"You should understand it though. She wanted to grow stronger and be like him. Even if there was not more to their race, they both are the first to hatch of their aspects within their race. They are examples. I have seen it in the cathedral, you know. The two are followed around and reported to constantly."

For Walker to have missed that the youngest of the heavenly serpents reports and made a point to follow or see Aurora meant that he had not spent enough time visiting there lately. It was a failure for him with everything being so busy.

He knew that Onyx took the lead with the serpents, but he missed this aspect of their race? What kind of leader could he be? "I will have to look in to things better. It's my fault if they are not properly prepared to be leaders. I also should look in to this bridge sooner than later. The light mana is still a little odd. I think we have a visitor on the way."

"Visitor?" As Rise began to stand, Walker made a slight gesture. He made the light mana move around her and she barely reacted.

"You can barely sense the flow of light mana because you overexerted yourself. Rest for a while and you can meet them later. But until you can properly reclaim your own senses, rest just like those two." Walker knew that Rise might follow anyways. He couldn't win so he just had to make sure he gave his advice properly.

As Walker pushed his fatigue to the back of his mind, he saw the two elder light dragons who appeared more full of mana and even life than before. The burst of light mana had gone very far to nourish the small eggs they carried within their bodies. It made Walker think about all the progress that was happening.

The dragons had always been a race with fewer members because of their methods, strength, and long lifespans. Yet, since Genesis was founded and they had begun to live there, it was already predicted they would have a record breaking growth within their race. Many of the dragons failing to bring new life had reported the signs that new life was on the way.

Proof that all the efforts given to maintain and grow the manas in certain areas was having a brilliant effect. Another unforeseen solution to an issue that they had not even realized was happening because the world's mana had been improper for a length of time.

This positive reminder calmed Walker's worries about other races in the future. To know that there was already a major sign that things were improving made him happy. But the feeling of light mana he sensed coming from the newly formed bridge to the elemental planes, that worried him a little.

While the control of that light mana reminded him of the true sages, he knew that it was different. It was weaker. And it also did not show the same signs of when the true wind sage had visited. The false body he had created definitely did not show this sort of control over mana. Proving that it was another representative or being of similar strength but potentially not related to the true sage at all.

He had used mana to clear the area around the bridge to the elemental planes. The large pile of brittle light and heart mana crystals would be researched later. Walker had still not used his all around appraisal on them since he did not have the seconds to worry about their uses or

qualities.

Right now, he was focused on the fluctuations of light mana and the few light elemental spirits around. They were making way for a somewhat familiar, yet unfamiliar, scaled head breaking through the bridge to the elemental planes. One much larger than what Walker thought of as familiar.

"You are definitely not the heavenly serpent that I would expect to know. Not one that was raised here or one that has ever been to the world I would say." The white crystalline scales proved this while the nearly clear eyes were focusing on Walker. Dense light mana coursed through and around the body of the serpent that had just arrived.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
