Master Of None

Chapter 1641: 1641. Teasing Arrival

”I would say we are not the only ones that found sand jacks or jungle dogs.” Walker pointed out the other teams that were returning from the patrols. Walker also saw some of them had maps they had made or notes they had taken. It was a good idea for those without memorization skills or the skills to accurately draw.

”More snacks!” Midnight saw only one thing in the monsters that had been caught. Snacks.

”Yes yes, I will cook the sand jack when we get back to the ship. But I think we are going to have to welcome the next ship first.” As much as Walker didnʼt want to point this out. He saw Current landing on their ship which had to be a signal that the second ship was only a short while away from coming out to anchor at the river mouth.

Without hesitation, the group boarded a one of the small boats and headed back out in to the water. With Walkerʼs help, he was able to store away all the monster bodies that had been hunted. It was ideal for them since it shortened the time it took for everyone to get back to the ship.

But more so, it meant that all of the dragonkin that had left could pay respects to another royal dragon as they were expected to do as dragonkin warriors under a royal dragon.

”Took your time paddling across the water?” Before Walker had even managed to get to the top deck from the rope he climbed up, he heard Leon teasing him. When Walker did get to the top of the ship from where he had been, he couldnʼt even rebut against Leon.

From what Leon had been doing, spear fishing, he had amassed over forty of his prey. The monsters varied in size and shape but more than just the salmon were there now. He had even managed to secure a few other smaller monster fish that Walker had never seen before. Unfortunately, before he could start the all around appraisal of them, he was caught by another person walking over.

”This is a very good start to a food stockpile. Have you been working on this all day or just now?” Current was bright and energetic. It seemed that he was more excited to see the first ship than anyone had expected.

”Walker, have someone deliver the herbs to me later. I will begin making a few things with what I have. It might take some time.” Since the second ship was coming, Remey wanted to prepare the alchemy lab to teach anything necessary or learn anything new. The other ships might have found different herbs than she had. Or even made additional potions for antidotes and poisons.

”Sure thing, I will. Gil, I know that you want to take the bow to get tuned up. Head out too.” Walker saw that Gil was trying not to be impolite but he wanted to leave.

”Youʼre right. If I donʼt go right away I might forget some of the small changes it needs before it can be used by more dragonkin.” The dragonkin warrior that had the bow stopped in front of Current and gave a quick salute before showing the bow to him. Current only gave a nod which allowed the dragonkin to move on. But he had a clear expression of curiosity.

”Gil was with us when Mordant and Rise asked Walker and the others to assist in making a new mana gem that they will be using for their new armors.” Su went out and said it right away. It was enough to make Walker know that he would be trapped in the forge again.

”A new bow and a new mana gem? Is this normal for your time on a ship? If it is, you may have to spend some time showing me these new things.” At this rate, all the dragons would end up joining the same ship because they wanted to have things forged. It would consolidate the strength at once palace instead of all around every ship.

”It was to help in training too. Su had the chance to resist the heat, light, and darkness energies. I would say she would have some training resisting water elemental mana too but I a not sure how that would go.

It would take a better blacksmith than myself for us to create a water natural mana gem.” Walker had a few ideas on how it might work but he was not about to spend the entire trip across the ocean trying to make them a reality.

”I will have to ask your friend the wandering blacksmith then. If he sees your work I am sure that he will be impressed. It appeared he cares for all of you a great deal.” Current had not forgotten the way that the wandering blacksmith had treated those he cared for and also his work.

If he were to see something interesting like a natural mana gem, then it was a sure thing that the experimentation would happen in the new mana gem theory.

”Midnight, if you want to take Onyx and find Scylla too. We can start getting ready for the other ship to link up with us.” Leon asked this to Midnight while he cleaned the last harpoon he had used while spear fishing.

The sudden request made Midnight pretty happy. She also wanted to keep showing off her hunted sand jack. Scylla would appreciate it since she was also someone who appreciated hunting. But it was also a good way for her to speed up the time for it to be cooked for her. Not to mention. The more people that came when the other ship arrived, the more fun it would be.

”Oh, I would say you have about an hour before they arrive. The water ways you helped carve out were very good. We have a few of your merfolk soldiers that swam under the water of our ship. They are very efficient.” Having the praise of a royal dragon was all that Leon needed. It was great to hear this and great that his soldiers were doing exactly what they needed to do.

”Trying to steal away someone from the ship Rise and I are on? First, it was the mana gems and now it will be one of the generals?” Mordant showed himself from the shadows. He had been listening for a short while before showing himself.

”And where is Rise? Is she going to join us or remain in the sky?” Current wanted to fly up there to see if he could get Rise to join them but Mordant shook his head at him.

”She is preparing for the journey. The more mana that she has, the better it will be for the night. Due to Walker and the others of his group, Rise has already said that she will be lighting the entire area at night for the ships. A very important role if you understand?” Mordantʼs words seemed a little mocking but also impressed.

He was glad that Rise had decided to do this since he was not of much help in the deeper dark waters of the ocean. Shadows were not that important when it came to the ability to see in the water.

”That is a very good assurance to have. I am wondering just what we will need to handle when we are out in the ocean. I assume there will not be many threats that can resist a dragon under the water and above the water.” Since Current was set on going across the ocean, he was also set on defeating anything that dared threaten them.

Having a royal water dragon to take the protection underneath the water was even better than having the merfolk and the aquatic demi-humans. They could handle the small monsters that attacked them. Current and his dragonkin could handle the larger and more dangerous monsters that set their sights on the ships as their targets.

”Before we keep this up, letʼs move to the stern of the ship. We should be able to see the mouth of the river better and when Almaʼs ship makes it to the ocean.” Walker decided to take a little more control of this conversation. He also knew that the faster they moved from this side of the ship, then the easier it was for the other warriors to handle the prey they had hunted.

Before Leaving, Walker dropped all the jungle dogs and sand jacks along with a few other monsters that had been hunted. The octopus was the only one of the kind hunted that he had seen but it was clear that it would be a commodity in the future.
