Master Of None

Chapter 841: 841. The Falls

The cleanse skill was not something super flashy and amazing. It was a simple skill but a useful one. Walker couldnʼt count the many times he had wished he could bathe while they had been traveling or how often he had wanted to be able to get home and sit in a bath to scrub away every piece of dirt.

He even felt that he would be able to use the skill on the others which would be incredibly valuable for when they were adventuring and were about to walk in to a city. It would also save them some water that they had in his inventory for cleaning themselves before entering a city anyways.

”Midnight and I gave a check of the other walls again and it looks like there is nothing else here.” Gil was a little disappointed that they had come up short. He had grand ideas that they had come across a mine full of ores and valuable gems.

”I think we got more than enough. That last chunk of ore should be enough to make a whole ingot and then some.” The size of the last piece of cold iron ore had been the largest by far. However, with the amount in the rusted chest, they had enough to make a few sets of armor if needed.

Once Walker had stored the broken pickaxes to be melted down and reused, he looked at the wandering blacksmith who was standing waiting for the others happily. He had gained a lot here and wasnʼt even at the centennial ice that they planned to harvest as well.

”Leader, do we leave the cave as it is or will we close it up again?” When Su asked Walker, couldnʼt help but think there was no harm in just leaving the cave as it was. It would be a good resting spot for any future travelers.

”No, we can leave it. It will save us some time that way. I think we will get to icicle falls today. Then tomorrow we can get to the centennial ice. I would say we will get to both today but after fishing for a little while it should be dark.”

”Oh, good. I can look for more herbs that way too. I have an idea that there are more around the icicle falls than we think.” Remey knew that there were plenty of herbs that would grow around such cold places. The thought that all plants needed was sunlight and warmth to grow was a common misconception.  Lots of herbs needed the proper elemental mana to get the grow that they need.

Hearing the goals from the others, the wandering blacksmith tried to take the lead before Su jumped in front of him. They were out of the cave and back on their journey up the mountain. The rock slide had not held them up in the least, it was a small one and with minimal effort, the group had walked around it.

Midnight was fairly energized after she and Gil had scouted to find the cave. She had already tried to push Gil to go and scout again with her since she was feeling the need to explore more and more. It was a small addiction to the new things around them and the fact that the group seemed to be finding more and more new things at every turn.

”Alright, Midnight, I need your help.” Remey finally broke first and decided to tell Midnight about another herb she was on the look out for that she was sure that would be growing near the icicle falls which Walker had already said should be over the next ridge.

Midnight rushed over to Remey ready for her mission. The seriousness in her eyes was alight with fire. ”Ehrm, the herb we are looking for is blue and skinny. Itʼs called blue grass. The base is green like normal grass. It grows in small tufts here and there and only next to ice and snow patches.” Midnight used her shadow wrapping skill and was off ahead of them in a matter of seconds.

She had clear memories of what Remey had said and focused on the task.

”What is blue grass used for? More cold resistance?” Su thought there was a familiar sounding herb that she may have seen before.

”It is actually very common to grow in the winter. It helps prevent colds and can be made in to a small vitamin pill of dried and added to soups and teas. I want to have some around for exactly this reason. We can get some ahead of the real snow which will be nice.” Remey was trying to think ahead of what they would need for their trip to Genesis city as well.

More than likely the snow will fall during or before their trip.

”Thatʼs a good idea. None of us can afford to get sick with all other plans we have.” The entire group agreed with Walkersʼ statement. They had a lot of plans they were very excited about in the coming months. Being sick and missing something seemed to be a tragedy.

Like a ghost coming out of nowhere, Midnight padded up next to Su and was ready to pull her away. However, the group was about to clear the ridge and see what Midnight had already seen. She did not rush them since she wanted them all to experience the sight before them fully.

All of them knew that something great was ahead due to Midnightʼs excited actions. But they were not ready for the cold breeze to hit them and open up the area ahead of them. The icicle falls were coming from the next bit of steep cliffs ahead of them. The ice falling was adding to the crashing of water which the sun showed through making rainbow mists. It was elegant.
