Master Of None

Since there was no movement in the area with the demon king and the floating corrupted city, this allowed everyone to begin moving sooner than later. 

Reports about the battle with Envy had already gone out to Genesis and the angel's leaders. This in turn had brought information back to the party. There were already celebrations and even some people saying that it would be best to push everyone back toward the floating city to eliminate it. 

What that would do, would surely be a failure. Those people were not those that were taking the front lines. They Were the inexperienced or the desk warriors. Those who just wanted to get rid of a problem on paper and had no idea how to handle the physical side of the issue. Let alone the magical side. 

Luckily, plenty of people were around to deal with those kinds of people. Many of the leaders of each race were already acting and explaining the future goals. 

It was definitely an issue that the corrupted mana was making more appearances. More monsters were appearing that were being pushed to the brink of running berzerk because of the corrupted mana. 

Worse yet, the elves within the forests had been exploring their territories yet again. This was the same as the other more distant elves who had been discovering mutated plants that had no real ability to help anyone due to the corrupted manas that made them that way. 

Just here alone, Walker had spotted places where the angels had been forced to burn up and dig out spots of the marsh lands as they had come to fight the slimes. This was due to the different plants that had been corrupted with manas running wild. It made him understand the growing severity of this issue. 

"Are we going to move right on, or can we take a break?" out of everyone to wonder this, it was Remey. From what Walker could see, the new state that her body was in was much more demanding than what any of them had realized. 

The royal dragons had been the ones to expend the majority of their manas. While the others had been more of a physical drawback. However, Remey relied on densely purified fire mana more than most people or even the spirit race did. This was to nourish her soul and body that were now on soul the same thing. 

Without the right sustenance, anyone or anything would suffer. To create the uniquely potent flames around her in battle, Remey had to focus on using a lot of the fire mana that lived within the core of her being now. In doing so, it left her weaker. 

Remey had trained her body alongside everyone. She had managed to become much stronger because of that. She was definitely one of the most powerful, physically that is, people in all of Genesis. But where Remey failed, was her mana and general ability to control and condense it. 

She ahd an extremely high ability to use it because of her alchemy side of things. But she had always had to focus on the physical side of her strength due to being a brawler and now an alchemical brawler. Fighting fist to face was her focus for a very long time. She ended to catch up to Walker in her understanding and gathering of manas. At the very least, just improve the way that she did. 

That also raised another question. Now that Remey was a unique form and race that didn't normally exist within the world where they were, how would that affect her. She would obviously need more condensed and unique fire manas like the elemental fire planes had. None of which were here. 

It was also a wonder of what else she might need in relation to that. She might have to do different things or need things that people couldn't even know here in the world that were cut off from the elemental planes due to not having proper balances in mana for so many years that it was impossible to count. 

"I will help you for the time being. My dragonkin soldiers are preparing for the battle ahead of us. They are on their way along with the elders that are not involved with creating our new village." Ignus spoke up before Walker could snap out of his own mind. His worries were similar to Walker's anyways, especially when he could understand the feeling of being low of manas right now. 

"I am surprised that you can stand. I fired plenty of arrows, but my mana is recovering naturally much faster now than it did before. But you channeled all of that mana and even used that nature dragon domain skill." From the way that Gil was speaking, there was a major question whether or not Walker should be awake now. 

"Fleur was helping me out, but I think that there is more to it. You all know that our bodies are altered by mana and too many other aspects to count, right? Well, Midnight and Onyx are bonded with me. And I am the nature dragon here, even if I am technically human. I also let various manas flow around and through me at all times. I really think that has a lot to do with it." 

Since Walker didn't actually have a better answer than this, he had to just say it. He knew well that everyone would understand this. But he also wanted to wonder a little longer what was going on with him.

Normally, he would feel tired or more strained. He had felt that way immediately after the nature dragon domain ended, but he also had a very quick recovery. The nature dragon domain skill had been focused on healing, balance of manas, and overall buffing. Therefore, it could have been the reason. But for him, he wondered if there was more to it. Things he didn't notice. 

"Before we move back to the angel's city, we should begin setting up a major base in the forest nearby. It will allow us more options than right here." Su was staying focused while the others appeared to be a little distracted. This also managed to get the rest of the royal dragon's attention since they were very focused on the fact that they were all low of manas. They couldn't do much but physically fight right now, not that it was anything to laugh at. 

As the order was passed around, many of the Genesis forces began to bring more information back to the party. They were realizing that the area that the slimes had spread was larger than they had expected. 

"We need to start sending out more forces to heal the land that was damaged. We can rely on the elves and some of the farmers that are helping the smaller angel villages. It will be temporary to take them from there, but we can save the marsh lands that were broken because of this attack." Walker made the executive call on this. It was the best shot they had. 

There was a fear that a more major battle would happen here. The floating corrupted city could be the center of a major battle that caused much more destruction. 

"That will be my goal then, I will let you set up the camp and I will start on that. I have a few elves that have been learning the high elven dagger skills with me. They might be able to learn a bit as I cut away the corrupted plants we find with the naturally attracted natural mana." Gil didn't even wait a moment for this. He was off. But that was the same for Alice who was off checking injuries right now. 

"Brother, sister and I will see what we can help with. The little serpents that came with us are joining in the search for damaged areas. They have been helping already and I just spoke with one that asked for more help organizing his siblings." Walker nodded as he watched Midnight and Onyx head away as well. 

It would have been a smooth process, if not for the fact that at that moment, a wave of corrupted mana left the corrupted floating city. This was matched by a guttural roar from the corrupted undead monster that was once parts of a dragon and a wyvern king. 

Every single person nearby saw the massive city begin to shift. The undead monster being the reason that it appeared to be pushing out in to the open ocean again. "They weren't moving because they were waiting for Envy, but I also think that they made their forces stronger." Walker spoke with grim tones. He could see different monsters now effected by corrupted mana. Undead monsters.
