Master Of None

Chapter 1018: 10.18. Beauty Of Night

Not many of the forces that had come together under the Genesis name showed an ounce of tiredness. The only ones that appeared to be in need of a longer rest were the merchant guards. But they doubled down and took mana potions or health potions to continue on. They were all very motivated when they saw every single merfolk taking up weapons or rocks if need be to go and fight for their city.

No one wanted to see children fighting but they were not going to stay in this temporary and hard to defend city. Even the king of the merfolk had called it just a camp. That went far to say that the people were not going to let their city fall forever. ”Itʼs getting harder to see.” Su had decent night vision but the addition of the water was challenging.

She had made her way right in front of Walker while the merfolk began to lead the way in formations that Current had directed the in to.

”I was just starting to wonder how they were able to see in such dim lighting. It might be some merfolk sight that allows them to see in the dark better.” This was the only solution that Walke came up with. If the merfolk were used to this kind of change every single day then it was obvious they would develop better night vision.

”I wouldnʼt be so sure about that. I can feel the corals and other things getting more energetic. You should be able to feel it too if you focus on the natural mana.” Alma was still backed by Gil since he was worried she would push herself too hard. She did not shy away from the shoulder to lean on while Gil pulled her long in the swim.

However, it was easier for them to walk along the bottom where possible. But the coral was in the way of an easy and straight path.

Since Alma had told him to focus on it, Walker reached his senses out to the natural mana around the coral. He was not surprised that she had been right and that it was increasing slightly by the minute The darker the water seemed t get the more it seemed that the natural mana rose. But even more than that, the corals and underwater plants seemed to be unfurling completely.

”This is why I want to come back here and search for potion ingredients. Look at all the plants that show themselves at night. They even glow!” Remey saw the first of the corals starting to put off a soft glow. Many of them were showing this effect in multiple colors.

”Surprised I take it? The nights here are much more beautiful than the days. Once the ocean is dark you see the true beauty of what grows here. Thatʼs why my people strive to protect such things. Look at what those things have done.” Leon had been swimming beside them as their guide since his father had taken over the lead. Some parts of the coral had been torn to pieces and obviously eaten.

But worse off, the fish that emerged were few and far between.

The lack of fish was a huge negative for the environment. Many predators would be unable to feed which would cause them to die off as well. It was a flow that had been interrupted. ” A lot of the fish and the corals absorb light elemental mana just as plants do. Then at night, they release it to keep growing and breeding. Many of the fish are attracted by that and feed on each other and plants.

It all comes together to make this natural beauty that we take pride in. Our entire city looked like this.”

The idea that an entire city would take on this spectacular glow of colors and life made Walker want to see it in such glory. ”Brother, I have decided that I like the oceans. I can eat even when it is night.” This was much better for Onyx than the moonlight. He was able to easily swim in the cool waters and maintain his body heat due to the high amount of light elemental mana within it.

Walker didnʼt miss the sight of Alice giggling when she heard Onyx speak in their minds. She was the one attracting the most light elemental mana and Onyx was snacking like a glutton. It was adorable, to say the least.

”I wouldnʼt mind learning to control dome of these plants. But that might be better for the water elves. I think it will be good for us to reach out and reconnect with them.

They have moved to the lakes but who says they can not return to the oceans.” Since Alma had the information about other elf cities she knew that in the past there were water elves in the oceans who had left for the lakes once upon a time.

”I would not mind hearing more stories of water elves. I have been told my entire life that a lot of our underwater magic came from them and grew in to our own forms of magic.” Leon even supported it with his own history causing Walker to make a much more important mental note than he would have. Having more relations with people would be better for Genesis and the world as a whole.

”Look, thatʼs a light fin tuna. They have the best meat for any meal. And their fins gather light and water elemental mana so they make armor best for swimming in.” Leon pointed out the large fish that caught their attention.

”That is something to protect. This is all worth protecting. Having your beautiful home under attack is not acceptable. Donʼt worry. We will shield it from harm.” Midnight and Su stood together. Walker swore there was a slight growl in Suʼs voice.
