Master Of None

Chapter 2251: 2251. Curses And Arrows

Walker did feel bad that Ventus was being tested so much, however, as he looked at the people that had gathered because she asked, he wondered why else she had looked in to those who could use curses.

There werenʼt just a few, Walker had managed to find ten. Apparently the wind dragonkin had been researching this for her. It proved that there were multiple classes that could use some form of curses that were not as simple as debuffs. On top of this, they were also of multiple races.

The demons could be understood since they had both caused curses and also been under curses. As they were from a race that had been tortured by itself for some time. Not to mention being known for this even though it was not actually as common as the fears of others had been.

What Walker rested easy on was that all the people he saw appeared somewhat bright and not what you would expect from the negative tones of curses or curse users. As such, he was able to relax and open his mind a little more while deciding if he would have to start pushing for some laws about classes that used curses or even more potent debuffs.

”As you all know, Ventus has been working to meet you and bring you together. Right now, she is with the true wind sage, however, later, you will be cursing her.” They wwe all shocked at this. Being told they would be cursing a dragon who was not cruel or known for evil deeds was not normal.

”There are other dragons within the wind elemental planes. If she goes there with her full strength, they will be threatened causing a potential battle or war. She is acting as a mediator to prevent that possibility while learning about the dragons there. So, she will weaken herself as to not be a threat in a show of sincerity.”

”But you should all wonder why I called you here for other reasons, though, right?” Walker had seen them grasp what he was saying and saw their respect for Ventus grow significantly. However, they were now looking at him with a little curiosity and loss.

”Sir hero, we were working on how to use curses in every day life. People see them as evil just by being there, but they can prevent many issues. Ventus told us about the demi-human history with cursed potions and objects, she wanted to make sure that all forms of magic were accepted, because they could help.”

One demon girl wearing large dark robes spoke up. She was confident in her words and so were the others who nodded along. Even a demi-human who would have been oppressed by their own people because of the fact that they could use curses. They were a curse mage, already being a mage was rare for most demi-humans. But a curse mage? Even more shocking and out of the norm.

”I understand why you are all working so hard.” Walker started off simply. He knew that it would be important to ensure that he made it clear he was not devaluing them in any shape or form. They were part of Genesis and deserved the respect that every citizen should have regardless of the class they had.

”If you can all make curses help people, it will improve Genesis and also show people a way to handle certain situations that might seem impossible. You can also change the perspective of curses which is overall negative at first thought. That is quite the goal.” It was a large wall to overcome for certain. There were very few people who viewed curses like this.

”Lady Ventus told us that she would help change that too. We cursed one of the dragonkin and it helped them!” Now Walker was hearing why Ventus had known this. She couldnʼt have thought that she would need to be cursed to go to the wind elemental planes before the true wind sage had gotten here.

Seeing that they had Walkerʼs express attention, another of those brought together by Ventus spoke up. ”I am a curse rune maker. I make marks similar to runes that curse people while they are fueled by mana. My curse on the dragonkin helped combat the scale rot disease by forcing the dragonkinʼs body to shed scale more often.”

The wide smile on the dark elfʼs face proved that this was more than just a victory to him. It was a clear example that proved everything he had thought when he got this cursed rune maker class.

”I see, so you used a curse that would have been very annoying if this dragonkin was healthy. And Ventus realized that the problem would not be solved through alchemy or healers. So, I wonder what other things this can be done for?” Walker realized that the young age of most of these curse related class users was simply because of the fact that classes were still new to the world right now.

”I cursed my neighbor to help him quit drinking. Every time he drinks anything he starts doing the demi-human belly dance that the serpentine swordsman uses.” a much younger girl than the others jumped forward to proudly explain her cursed witch class and how she had been cursing those who had drinking problems.

The best part, that they had asked her for such things. Both were funny events which forced them to put down their drinks and embarrassed them. Their friends and families were finding it hysterical, but it also forced them to stop drinking every time they took a sip. To be honest, Walker was very impressed.

”I encountered some situations related to curses and they werenʼt good. But I think all of you have a very good chance to fix that. We normally use small curses and other techniques for prisoners, but you can all help people in other ways.” Besides cursing people to be unable to use their skills in prison, Walker realized some issues could be fixed with curses. Specifically, mental issues.

The addictions to drinking or other things could be solved this way. Or, a curse to train a certain way to fix a bad habit could save a life. But there were lines not to cross and contracts needed. He knew very well that approval from all individuals for a curse to be paced should be the main focus in all this.

Regardless, he would work on the laws and regulations later. ”I wanted to meet all of you because you will be cursing Ventus. She is going to go through a harsh trial that will test her will in many ways. So, she is sealing away her strength to undergo that trial. I was hoping you could explain how it will all work?”

As Walker became immersed in this, Gil was facing a new issue of his own.

”Pretty ordinary. Nothing special for a human. Well, high elf? Or is he a natural half elf now? Or half this half that.” the true wind sage laughed to himself as Zephyr showed up and the wind mana around became slightly more chaotic.

Gil on the other hand was looking at the arrow he had just cracked after being distracted. His face showed calmness but his mana was showing clear anger. ”You made me break an arrow. This arrow could have been used to make a small earthquake. The materials are valuable.”

Kmwojng Gil, Zephyr tried to get in his way. She could tell that he was very angry right now. The arrow experiments were a massive method of bonding for him and the elves. He made new arrows in competition and to help them keep their imaginations flowing. But she didnʼt want him to pick a fight with the true wind sage who could crush him.

”Itʼs just an arrow. Just use mana to make them out of wind like the gale elves do. Or even better, do what the shadow wreath elves do, use your own shadow to make arrows of decaying dark mana.” The true wind sage really didnʼt see the value in physical arrows like this when mana arrows were easier to make while in battle.

”Donʼt care if he is some important wind sage. Heʼs getting his butt kicked from here to the opposite end of Genesis. You know what, Iʼll send him right back home. Who cares about being nice.” a larger arrow began to notch in to his bow.

”He seems pretty bland. Just gets angry about little things and isnʼt even using the wind mana you bragged he could use.” The shaking of the true wind sageʼs head suddenly stopped as Gil focused and released the arrow.

The true wind sage had just dodged.
