Master Of None

Chapter 1050: 1050. Some Future Thinking

”You understand I was digging the vaults for the important buildings just now right? You could have waited a few weeks to ask me back here.” The king of the deep caves was still around as the representative of the dwarves. He had made the decision to connect the dwarven city and Genesis through an underground route.

It would take a long time to accomplish since he was more than likely to run in to unexplored caves. However, it was a project that would make him and all the dwarves happy. No one could oppose.

”I would like to hear the results of the expedition. If the merfolk have been rescued or if they will be seeking shelter here is very important information.” The king was still here and had not traveled back to his wife in Diamond. As much as he wanted t rush back he knew that he needed to ensure that Genesis was on the rise.

He also knew that he would need to prepare a proper representative before he left.

”I also worry. Alma is still not back yet you are.” The tense atmosphere that the enforcers and forest elf queen gave off was enough to make everyone silent.

”If they werenʼt on their way back then my general would have sent an urgent communication. The odds are that they tried to travel a different route and will return in a day or so are high. I can feel your anger from here and I am all the way across the table.” King Rorik had also remained behind.

He had sent Scylla out and did not wish to see anything happen to the city without a powerful demi-human there. As tough as he acted, he was too easy to read when it came to the things he cared for.

”Well, they will all return soon. Iʼm not sure about Scylla though. She said that she wanted to do some extra training. I will let her report that to you though. The merfolks will be sending a representative soon but need to heal their broken city. The kraken mother was defeated and most of the kraken spawn.

There are more spawn that should be hunted and killed on sight. The tamers are on thin ice though. They ignored their orders and looked for kraken eggs to take with them so that they could be tamed beasts. I hope that you can have a word with the guild master in my place.” Walker knew well that he would be unable to get to the demi-human city anytime soon.

”That can be arranged. I know that his aquatic tamers are a little more egotistical than they should be.” King Rorik seemed to have had past problems with them as well. This was easy to see since the demi-humans with aquatic traits might butt heads with the aquatic tamers.

Walker proceeded to go in to more details about travel and how the dragons had already left. He also explained that he would have to leave in a few months to the royal dragon court to meet the other royal dragons. This prompted a short conversation on gifts of multiple elemental affinities to send with Walker from their kingdoms. Naturally, it would be more than Walker was expecting.

”Then all is well. Iʼm glad to hear that they will be able to bring some rare ores and help us explore underwater caves.” The king of the deep caves knew that the merfolk might be able to partner with them. It was ideal since the dwarven golems would take much longer to explore than merfolk.

”Hmm, before this comes to a close, there is a strange happening that my enforcers noticed. We are very in tune with mana but since this morning and even around the outskirts of the city, the mana has been weak. Itʼs as if someone is pulling the mana and even more towards them. I have yet to receive any hard set information but it is notable.

I have my enforcers looking more in to it but they find that the more they search the more tired they feel.” The forest elf queen was calm but showed a little worry in her eyes.

”Thatʼs odd. I would say it might be the number of skills and mana used in the area for the construction of the city. But that wouldnʼt explain them being more tired. It could be nothing but if you find it odd I will rely on you for more information.” King August was sure that the elves had a better handle on this than the humans would. He fully trusted them.

His opinion was met with agreement from everyone else.

”Now that you say it, Fleur seems a little slower too. Usually, she is able to absorb more natural mana. But even I feel like the mana is fighting me a little.” Walker tried to pull on the natural mana in the room and felt as if something else was interrupting him.

”Then we will have our mages search as well.” That was settled. The forest elf mages would be fully investigating the strange occurrences when it came to the mana in the area. This seemed to be the best solution.

After this conversation ended, the representatives bounced small issues and ideas off of each other. There didnʼt seem to be many issues or shortfalls as of yet. This was all because of the major care taken in creating the laws and regulations. Having the guilds take off some regulatory stress was also a major factor.

”From here I think we should look in to other methods of expansion. I know there have been ideas on what else the city needs. If we are going to build major facilities then this is the time. Soon homes and more shops will take up available space.” Walker suggested this as they ended the meeting. He knew it would be wise to brainstorm this for a few days.
