Master Of None

Chapter 2567: 2567. Shaking The World

Finding the other bridges did not present an issue whatsoever for Walker. He actually found that he could sense them much more clearly now than what he had been able to before.

The act of connecting a bridge properly back together had further pushed his senses. The spatial fluctuations of each bridge had their own unique feeling to him now. Partially due to what elemental planes the bridge was attached to and also the strength of the bridge itself.

While the remaining bridges were just waiting to be strengthened, they stood out as weaker. The space mana was naturally thinner and could be said to even be under more pressure there.

To his senses, Walker even felt that the last few bridges he had worked on were entirely different. While some seemed to be weaker, they were weaker in the sense of how much mana they could trade from the elemental planes and the world. Not that they could be broken partially or entirely as he had just dealt with in the last instance.

In terms of which elemental plane they were attached to, he was very interested. With his senses, he could tell which bridge might have which true sage visiting through them or where someone could travel if they wished to venture in to the elemental planes.

What he thought would be interesting was if he could potentially create or help entirely create was a magic item. Something that could take what he was sensing in the space manas and elemental manas to always have an accurate reading of what elemental plane was on the opposite end of which bridge.

If it could even tell which boundary between the elemental planes it was shifting in to, things would be even easier. There would be better preparations for anyone who wanted to travel and also for when manas would flood in to the world.

All of this was potentially a project that would need him no matter what. Heʼd yet to hear anything of mages or other classes that could sense the shifting of the elemental planes. It was something that would need to be figured out and developed over more time. Genesis I had that though. Time was what they knew many aspects of their growth needed.

Time was also what it was taking Walker to handle the last of the bridges. He wasnʼt surprised that once heʼd managed to sense them he managed to communicate enough so that the teams scouting locations had either returned or were focusing on other tasks.

Being able to have the scouts work on things like searching for chaotic mana outbreaks or exploring unknown territories was more important. If they managed to find a chaotic mana outbreak it could be handled by Walker, or if it was small handled by someone who could purify or utilize natural mana. Not that it was so simple and easy.

The new lands after the world expanded were still one of the largest focuses that Genesis and every single kingdom associated with their alliance were caring about. It was simply the unknown threat of monsters or other ancient aspects of the world returning or just being able to cause them trouble. Add on the ruins that held ancient knowledge, if even minimal, it was important to them.

When Walker sensed the last of the ten bridges he needed to enhance, he wasnʼt worried at all. He felt like this was part of him now.

For Walker, and maybe any origin being, heʼd come through some form of rite of passage by working in the ways he had. Heʼd dealt with chaotic manas which he needed strength and calm mind to handle while he had also managed to split his thoughts in to multistory paths to manipulate multiple manas more closely.

He had even managed to grasp aspects of life and death manas heʼd been blind to while adding to his spatial mana understanding as well. Even more shocking was that he had glimpsed for the smallest of seconds was time mana. The tiniest of progress on that was enough to tell anyone how amazing his growth had been.

The last bridge was surprisingly in a small clearing. A little field within a small grove of trees. It was calm and had gentle water mana flowing through it. The area was also calm, a few water spirits and a few random flying monsters who had made their nests nearby. Overall for a place far in to the wilderness which would be a brutal area in the colder months, it was safe. Peaceful.

The bridge seemed to be influenced the same as others had been by one another. The space mana that seemed to connect them in whatever balance was supposed to exist when they had first formed only grew stronger. Now, Walker felt that his efforts were taking another step beyond the stagnation the world and elemental planes had been in for years.

The feeling of being pulled in struck Walker as something unusual, but not at all in a bad way. He felt that the bridges and the space mana had just sunk in to a more solid foundation. A form that they had all been waiting to fall in to.

A shiver of mana moved through the world. Like a brick perfectly fitting in to its final spot to compete a bit wall, everything felt right. It felt perfect.

The mana of the entire world was shivering, no, it was shaking. The rumble of earth mana growing in purity with all the mana from the elemental planes which had been flowing in to the world was the first step. It solidified the earth itself and anchored the world in space.

The wind and water manas shook as well. The waves along rivers, lakes, and the ocean grew larger than average but the water mana was purer as chaotic mana was pushed out. The wind currents became more powerful causing some areas to be buffered by greater force than normal.

The sun seemed to shine brighter and the shadows strutted in to deeper darkness. Both the light and dark mana reacting was enough to shock everyone going about their day.

Blacksmiths in forges found they had suddenly faced greater flames than they intended. Some unfortunate crafters lost materials entirely. Yet, they couldnʼt frown at all seeing it. These flames were inspiring them.

Requirement:

Ten bridges have been strengthened, mana flow enhanced, and have become anchored in to flow with the world.

Large breaks in bridges, space, and elemental planes caused by chaotic mana have been remedied. The closed areas and grown lands are an intricate part of the world.

Utilized life mana, death mana, and natural mana to enhance the added lands due to closing the breaks made by chaotic mana

Reward:

A glimpse in to the potential future of the world will occur during deep meditation.

The second link in the chain quest will be released

The ability to grant quests in tune with the improvements of the world, the beings writhing, and the relationship with the elemental planes has been awakened.ʼ

ʼThe skill, quest granter, has been gained.

This skill does not at all require mana unless the reward given is utilizing your own insights about mana to bless or assist another.

The physical rewards must be something the user can give fairly.

Each quest will need an appropriate reward related to the difficulty of the quest.

Quests given using this skill will be similar to quests offered by the world and existence. They will not be the same as quests given due to guild affiliations or other factors.

Quests may be altered by the will of the world and existence.

This ability to grant quests can extend to beings within the greater elemental planes once the user has gained enough strength…ʼ

Something had touched Walkerʼs very existence. Even making him forget the bridges and the fact that the manas had all shaken the world as a whole. He felt as if this skill had become an intricate and immovable part of who and what he was.

Whether it would prove to be a good thing or not, it was part of him now. He could hand out quests with fair rewards and that could spur more growth through Genesis if he learned to use it wisely. Especially when it came to the adventurers who swore they would die if they didnʼt get the chance to explore the elemental planes.

While he also felt the deeper settling of space, life, death, and another more untouchable mana settling in to his body and soul, Walker could tell he had just scratched the top of all this. The bridges heʼd improved once had only been done halfway. Heʼd been too inexperienced to be able to take a full leap and cement them as they needed to be to flow with the world and overall elemental planes forever.

This wasnʼt a temporary measure, he had secured and protected the bridges to the elemental planes as a permanent fixture.

Forever.
