Master Of None

Chapter 630: 630. Speak

Walker was surprised to hear that the elder had already received a chain quest. It was more than the kings had received from his knowledge. ”We came to not only help with the yellow acidic slimes but also find a way to bring the elves and the dwarves together. That is the goal of the Genesis alliance. The demi-humans, humans, and elves are already preparing to build a united capital city.”

Walker looked at the elder who didnʼt even flinch as he spoke, ”There have been monsters discovered who are slowly gaining their sentient species status and we are helping them as well. One being the goblins who have once in their history almost reached this point.

They are coming back from near extinction and will be a sentient race alongside the grey haired spiders that have pushed past their monster instincts.”

The elder finally reacted slightly. His face was stiff but the mechanical arms twitch a little and he stopped working on the wire. Before he could even speak Walker continued since he knew that holding back was not the best move to make. Grey had warned him not to anger the elder and if Walker held back he knew that it would anger anyone.

”The elves are very close with natural mana and that means they are very close to elemental spirits as well. Since this is the case, it is an offense to them that dwarves craft weapons out of elemental spirits which traps them in the weapons. One of which Gil wields.” Walker took a deep breath and Gil showed the bow off properly.

Walker could feel the fluctuation of mana as the elder used some form of appraisal skill.

”I believe that there is a way to properly work with the elemental spirits to create a sentient weapon. The elves can speak to them and dwarves can not. The dwarves have the forging skill and knowledge but elves do not. There is a partnership just waiting to be formed. However, I know that you will need proof to convince your people and the elves.

So, I can speak to the spirits on your behalf and we can see what happens.”

The elder released a breath through clenched teeth. ”You believe the elves can actually speak to elemental spirits? And you say you can speak to them? I want proof of this first.” The elder stood and walked to a large cabinet made of metal and runes against the wall. ”I have a few s[irits here.

One of which is an awakened high earth spirit I plan to use to create a weapon out of when I am about to perish.”

Walker held himself strong while the dwarf elder said this. He knew that they would burn their souls to create a masterpiece in this way before they were going to die. Yet, knowing this didnʼt make hearing it any easier. Walker detested the loss of life for anything. He would rather see every monster gain intelligence than need to fight them. But for some, it would always be impossible.

”This cage is rune forged and can trap spirits of any element. Letʼs see what it has to say.” The elder uncovered a small cage that housed what looked to be a small fairy made out of clay.

”Hello, my name is Walker. I came to speak to you about a proposition.” Walker was soft toned and slow with his words. He knew that the mana fluctuating from him would be hard to understand. In contrast, however, the earth elemental spirit began to move erratically in the cage. It was shocked that someone was actually speaking to it. Never in itsʼ existence had someone spoken to it properly.

”You talk! You talk! How! Elf? No, God? No, Human!

Wait! Water spirit with you!” The flurry of exclamations and mana came at Walker in mass. The earth elemental spirit had been alone whispering to the other dormant elemental spirits for a while. This was like a dream come true.

”Yes, I have a water elemental spirit with me. I was entrusted with it in the forest elf city and plan to bring it back to my kingdom and home. If it wishes to awaken other spirits there I will allow it and if it wishes to stay with me it can. But for now, it will sleep a while longer.” Walker pulled the dormant water elemental spirit from his cloak.

He had kept it close and safe the entire time and no one was the wiser but the party.

The earth elemental spirit calmed down and looked at Walker carefully. ”Proposition? Take me away? I donʼt want to be trapped.” The mana was somehow sad. The feeling in the entire room became heavy with slow earth elemental mana.

”What did you just do? It has never caused something like this before.” The elder was showing some surprise at this. He had never seen an elemental spirit act this way in his life.

”It doesnʼt want to be trapped. It asked about my proposition for it and if it can leave. However, ”Walker sent the mana to the earth elemental spirit while speaking to the elder, ”I hope that you two can work together to craft a weapon. Spirit forging has always been forceful. My question is, what would happen if you two worked together to create something?

The strength of an earth elemental spirit to call upon the earth elemental mana to assist the forger. And the spirit forger who would normally need to burn their soul to create something so magnificent?”

Walker let the two think for a moment before adding this, ”Also, what would it be like if a spirit created a weapon or armor? Would they have control over it to some degree since they helped shape it? I doubt they would be forcefully attached to it like the older spirit forged weapons.” Walker pushed even more leaving the earth elemental spirit and the elder staring at each other silently.
