Master Of None

Chapter 1092: 1092. A Perfect Partner

Walker was on the way out of Ashʼs egg shop in a matter of seconds. He had the perfect person in mind so all he would need to do is worry about the hatching conditions and getting the king of the deep caves to come with him to Ashʼs shop.

”Brother, are we really going to find a home for the heavenly serpent egg?” Onyx was worried that Walker might be unable to do so at such a short notice.

”Donʼt worry. I have the perfect [person in mind. I think you will like it too since you have worked with her.” Walker was being careful with what he said so that he could tease Onyx and Midnight a little. They were driving him to make this decision so he felt it was only fair to have a little fun with it. Not that he wouldnʼt have done something to help the egg find a home anyways.

He was even brainstorming about the mud skinned alligator egg.

There was still the curiosity about the other egg that Ash had refused to show him. For whatever reason, there was a lot of negative feeling around it along with some strange mana flow. It reminded Walker about how it felt when Scylla was using her mana. It was related to her ancient bloodline which made sense since Ash had mentioned the egg was ancient as well.

He would be sure to ask for details when he returned.

”Midnight, if you rush too fast I will have to run behind you.” Midnight had noticed where they were going and was very excited to get there. The way the city was progressing showed that there had barely been any interruption in the days that greedʼs curse affected them.

The streets were more and more full every second while there seemed to be new construction on every corner. The buildings were coming up with speed and efficiency that every dwarf boasted about at any chance. What was even more impressive were the shops. The elves had sped up their transportation of goods since some of their younger generations were jumping at the chance to travel the world.

There were even a few walking around with adventurerʼs guild plaques already.

”Brother! You are going to ask Alice!?” Onyx saw the cathedral in the distance and put the pieces together.

”I thought Midnight would have told you first. Yes, I am going to ask Alice. She has a much higher light elemental affinity than most people. Plus, she can help provide the pure light elemental mana that it needs. I can also see if the church will provide some of the light elemental mana crystals needed.

If the heavenly serpent is light affinity then I trust it should have some healing abilities as well. But that will depend on it. I donʼt know if I can find any more information on it. It could be harder than finding information about you.”

The last sentence seemed to make Onyx quiet down. He had thought that he would have a friend in the world like him. But now he could tell that the heavenly serpent may feel even more isolated since its race was known to have left the plane completely for another more suited to their lives. ”I wonʼt let it feel alone and neither would Alice.

She has a good heart.” Onyx had a very high opinion of Alice after partnering with her lately. He believed in her strength and was ready to back her up.

”Good, now letʼs see if she is up for a little adventure.” The cathedral was slightly busy since many people were coming to pay respects before they went about their business in the city. It was a common respect for some merchants that had relationships with the church. Therefore, when the high priest saw Walker he gave an apologetic wave.

He and three of the potential high priests were swarmed by a crowd of merchants and other higher ranked individuals meeting with them.

”Midnight?” Walker had lost Midnight the moment they entered the door. But when he heard a surprised squeal he found that Midnight had nearly pounced on Alice. It was clear that Midnight had been worried about Aliceʼs wellbeing too and that Walker should have headed to the cathedral earlier.

”Iʼm glad you are energetic enough to fend off this vicious dragon.” Walker was met with a giggle from Alice and a dramatic fake growl from Midnight for his joke.

”Sheʼs too kind.” Alice was happy that Midnight has come to greet her in such a way. The feeling she felt from Midnight made her happier.

”So, do you have time for a little adventure? I met a new friend from the tamerʼs guild and have a proposition for you. It might not work but I think it could be very valuable to you and your future. It will also help another find a home.” This caught Alice off guard. She had expected Walker to just be coming to check on her and the cathedral.

But having him suggest a little outing was exciting, even more so that he was saying that he found something that might help her become stronger.

”Of course.” The response was instant and Onyx decided to take Aliceʼs shoulders over Walkers as his resting spot. He also wanted to help Alice keep her mana in check since she might need a lot to bond with the egg. He didnʼt give anything away though. He wanted to see Aliceʼs genuine reaction when she found out. He took it as his responsibility as a fellow serpent type monster.

”Then we need to go and find the king of the deep caves next. I think he should be at that new bank worksite. The Genesis building would get too crowded if it managed all the finds so we decided to split things in to the Genesis building and a bank that manages all the transactions in the city.

Itʼs safe to say it will need a lot of underground vaults.” Walker took Aliceʼs hand and headed out the door. A few healers watched with small smirks.
