Master Of None

Chapter 1164: 1164. Sit Down Dinner

Stunned. That was the only thing that everyone was able to feel. The blackened chicken that Walker had bought already spiced had browned up and become crispy in the oven. The roasted vegetables and smashed golden root potatoes made their mouths water. The vibrant greens salad with mixed nuts and a giant green onion bulb vinaigrette made the room smell fresh and bright.

There was too much to love about a simple but elegant meal.

”Since when can my son cook like this?! I thought your mother was the baker here, but you suddenly can cook? Did you actually gain a cooking system and have been lying to us the entire time?ʼ Garret thought that Walker had really gone above and beyond. There was so much food to feed everyone that they wouldnʼt be able to handle everything without the high priest, Alice, and some of Remeyʼs siblings.

Even the old master Alchemist and the wandering blacksmith had managed to make it back to the mansion for the night.

”Heʼs your son too, you know. But he does take after me.” Hilda was full of joy seeing that Walker had taken the time to learn skills and show them off that were related to her system. She knew he had always tried to gain these skills growing up and now that he could he had made it happen.

Not only did she feel fulfilled but she knew that Walker had realized a goal he had had for his entire childhood.

”I wanted to make a good dinner for everyone. The high priest even reserved your peach pie. I heard it has become the cathedralsʼ favorite treat.”

”Heʼs right with that. My healers have been trying to hoard it for themselves. If I didnʼt reserve one I would completely miss out on the chance to eat it.” The high priest flattered Hilda who seemed happier to hear that her food was popular now that her bakery was fully open.

”Well, now that Walker has outdone himself, letʼs eat.” Hilda was not going to let everyone be held up by talking about food that was getting cold. She would want everyone to eat while it was at its best so that was what they were going to do.

There were many topics that floated around the table while they ate. Onyx was bragging about how he and Alice had managed to get the hatching time of the heavenly serpent down to less than a hundred days. But what went even further was the fact that Alice and Su shared their new skills.

Alice was able to directly show off her strange singing that could protect her in battle and Su showed a very small version of the light shield she was learning. Su was far from mastery over the skill but everyone could tell it was not some simple light. The shield could block something solid and it just needed the time to condense and block hard hits.

Eventually, Su would be able to use it to heal herself and others slightly as well. When that day came she would be able to focus on the other things she had been holding off on.

Alma and Gil had spent a lot of time together with some of the forest elves that had joined the archer academy. They had specifically sent for the younger elves back in the city to come to genesis and learn. Since the forest elves were so knowledgeable with archery, they were the perfect base for the academy.

This went even further since the adventurerʼs guild had called over many of the young archers. Gil was no longer in charge of five or so archers, he had an entire class of forty that were in various stages of learning and sharing information.

Somehow, Remey and the alchemy guild had found time to continue their research in affinity potions. The old master alchemist had shared a lot of his knowledge and between Trish and him, they were on their way to the first ever earth affinity potion being made. They just needed the herbalists to finish some of the herbs that needed warmer weather to grow.

When they managed it the dwarves were hoping that there would be some relations made with the rock elves in the mountains if they could be found. It could help them expand their caves faster.

”I plan to head to the royal dragon court in a few days. Midnight, Su, and I will leave together and head in to the mountains. It might be a longer trip than I expect but we should be back for any competitions and such.” This silenced the table. Even some of Remeyʼs bickering younger siblings knew that this was a big deal.

”How long could it last? A week or two?” The trip to the mountains was about this long and Alma wasnʼt sure what would take long at the court.

”Iʼm not sure. It could take some time to convince them to welcome us. I am a human and so is Su. We might not be the same as every human but that is what we were born as and we need to be ready for their reactions to that. But we all have natural mana and the ability to learn it over time. Even Su and Midnight should get there one day.

I just have Fleur helping me out.” Waker knew that natural mana would play a huge part in the dragons welcoming him.

”You will be back safe and sound. I donʼt doubt you in the least. Just make sure you come back with a good story to tell everyone in the cathedral.” The high priest had grown to respect and trust in Walker. His voice cut the tension and brought warmth back to the table. Everyone felt they could breathe easier hearing his words.
