Master Of None

Chapter 1455: 1455. Running Around

The flurry of people in and out of the cathedral was a lot to handle. Many messengers were sent and the city began to awaken earlier than expected. The crafting guild called in many crafters to begin preparations. They were already receiving last minute orders.

The alchemy guild had long been awakened by Remey. She was personally overseeing the new alchemists preparing large batches of low tier potions to be sent away since the potions in their storage would be exhausted.

Walker found himself resting next to Aliceʼs bed. She had fallen asleep after drinking a partially frozen health potion. The technique was to mix it while an ice mage used magic on the potion. The result was a colder potion that helped heal wounds in the throat while also reducing any irritation.

From what the other healers had said, they had not made it even close to the border. Their journey had made it to the first farming village where they had needed to help some of the farmers during their busy season. From there they traveled dealing with a few monsters until they spotted some flames nearby.

With Aliceʼs songs, they had managed to stop the fires and discover the source. ”Iʼm not happy with this at all.” Walker sighed. He had made sure he spent time with Alice as she fell asleep. She would need time to heal and rest her mind.

”I feel the same as you do. This was a bog journey meant to bring Alice experience and personal growth. Yet…there are more people hurt than before. She canʼt travel as I did when I was her age.” The high priest felt that the entire group of healers had lost out on something very important to any healer looking to grow stronger.

”I want to tell her not to come to the border. I want to leave as soon as possible. Even without an army. But if she comes she will be pushing herself too much.” Walker was not going to hide how he felt. He would have the same conversation with Alice when she woke up.

”You know my daughter well enough by now. She will go with you whether you or I tell her not to or threaten the worst. She knows there are people in need there.” The high priest didnʼt sound saddened by this. Instead, he smiled. This was a quality that Alice had developed over many years within the cathedral. She represented the core value of helping others that the cathedral stood for.

”I know she will. She wouldnʼt let me run away after the demons causing problems. So when I leave, I will make sure she can rest on the way.” Since Walker had listened to the healers that gave Alice medicines and orders, he knew what she needed to do to recover her voice without permanent damage. She would have to remain perfectly silent for days until all the damage was healed.

”Stop making that face and go speak with your party. You already know Alice will be with you. Now you need to prepare for the others.” The high priest wanted to sit with his daughter alone. It was clear that he was worried about her leaving for a dangerous place. A place even more dangerous than it was before.

”Walker? Is Alice finally resting?” Su was worried that Walker was going to be more on edge with Alice returned in bad shape.

”Yes, she had lost her voice for a little while but it should be fine. I know you ran off to tell the rest of the family about whatʼs going on. Thank you.” Su had taken the duty of letting their parents know what was happening. it made sense that someone would go and tell them.

The more information they had the more they could prepare themselves for the party leaving and their businesses to be even busier.

”Gil is already prepared to go. Alma made him start making extra arrows since she will have to leave to go and recruit more elves. Remey sent over all the crates for you to bring first. You are basically the goods transportation to the border walls. Then Midnight and Onyx are preparing the hatchlings. Onyx might come with us when we leave.

He seemed pretty adamant about staying close. I think he is more worried than he looks.”

Su was very on top of everything. She was sure that the party would be away for much longer than they wanted to be, Genesis was their home now. They loved being there and watching it grow by the day. ”I feel like everyone is already prepared. I canʼt really do much.” Walker felt a little useless in the grand scheme of things.

”You can go and talk to Scylla. She is going a little mad.” Su had seen Scylla storm off angrily toward the coliseum. She wanted to lead her army in to battle. This was what she lived for, a good fight against powerful opponents. However, this had all come to be at a bad time. The coliseum was in the middle of the busiest unveiling it could ever have.

”I will head that way then.” Walker felt that this was an easier said than done task. If Scylla was fueled by her desire to fight he might get dragged in to a battle.

Su watched Walker leave the cathedral. She had been waiting for the chance to sit down herself. She had been running around a lot and just wanted a few moments to go over her armor and shields. She wanted to participate within the coliseum battles as well. Unfortunately, the trump cards she had been holding on to would not be shown off so soon.

She knew that Remey might feel the same way and they could bond a little over it while they head out to defend the border.
