Master Of None

Walker immediately felt embarrassed.

But not because of the odd way he had caught the joke with the earth king. Instead, it was because the true earth sage had a name and he had yet it bother to ask it.

.

"Earth king, this is a young sage that became a member of the origin.

He is here from the world to hunt the one that brings dead around with him." The true earth sage spoke calmly and with a friendly tone.

He showed a bit more energy too. It made the part feel that there was a darker side to the earth king if they didn't follow proper procedure.

Acting accordingly.

The earth was tough, solid.

And could easily crush or bury something. Therefore, if one were to think of it this way.

"I sensed them. I worried that another had somehow come from the outer planes to the central planes.

But it was not from outside. The world has returned to the flow.

"

The way the earth king spoke now and the way that it was still altering its form through different crystals made the group wonder if the Earth King and any other elemental king did not have set forms. They represented all that their elemental affinity was, therefore, it made sense that they would just change what kind of that elemental variant they were.

"We could tell you a lot about the world and how it has grown while being cut off from the natural flow of manas. But for now, we have to hunt down the immortal king.

He is trying to experiment with manas while traveling through some elemental planes. But he is also trying to find a death elemental plane.

He wants power."

Siucbe Walker had taken the lead of the conversation and the rest of the party had become less awestruck and more serious, the earth king also became a darker more serious shade for crystal.

"If you are just here to hunt it, then you should proceed. However, I will not assist.

I am not moving against another. It will cause a change in manas.

The change in the elemental planes nearby. It could recreate another war with fire or another war with the wind.

"

As the earth king realized that the party did not fully understand why this was the case, he felt as a kin and someone of the elemental planes, that this was the difference between someone who did not live here and was cut off from the pure manas of his home.

"You should understand, when the world was cut off in the time of settling manas, we were forced to rise.

The kings of each elemental mana, like myself, became the central points for our planes. We embody all that is the element we are.

The only time we meet is once every ten years to handle business of those young foolish beings within our plane causing trouble."

"We used our strength to solidify our plane.

When we move, it will shift. When we act at all, it will grow or shrink.

There are lines that will not be crossed. Or else the unsettled manas will cause more than just trouble here.

It will bleed in to your world. Bring more of the chaos through the bridge.

"

The earth king had been there when the manas were in a more chaotic state. Hence he was there for when the world had been initially forming.

During the time of the ancient monsters. That meant that the earth king knew well that there had been an order establishing before the bonds were broken between the world and the elemental planes.

If those had not been broken, it was sure that there would be a different outcome to the current situation. This current situation might never have happened in the forest place.

Regardless, they were here now and this was the reality of it all. So they had to make do with what was happening.

"You and the elemental kings are all bound by your position. Can you help us follow the immortal king then? You are the earth.

That means you can sense where the immortal king is, but you just can not act."

Since Gil decided to jump in due to his ability to sense the nature aspect that came with earth much more clearly, the earth king had also started paying a little more attention to the guests here.

The earth king could easily sense what was going on around those in front of him. Could sense that there was a powerful and pure fire elemental mana that came from Remey.

That she would be more comfortable in the fire planes, but had decided to travel here instead of following any instinct to go there.

The same could be said for the abyssal serpent he saw.

It could go to the elemental plane of light where it would be comfortable. Onyx had no idea that the earth king was wondering why he resisted this urge, the abyssal and heavenly serpents should rush there to keep growing.

To the earth king, this was an oddity as well.

Besides this, he sensed the grand earth spirit playing around Su, he sensed the bond they had.

A spirit mark and her. But he was still shocked that within the world awesome elemental spirits had become more than spirits.

They had become known as a spirit race. Entirely held within view of all existence.

Considering Midnight was an even greater draw on the heart king's mental power. The dragons were beings that rarely left their homes.

They were territorial and reclusive compared to the other beings within each elemental plane. Especially since they would either need to absorb large amounts of mana or learn to master larger amounts of mana.

However, this one was more than just one, it was multiple manas. The rumors of a potential true dragon being born might be correct this time.

The dragons would stop at nothing to find this young dragon. But they might not be able to handle it, there was much more strength here than what should be from the the world cut off from pure manas for so long.

Glancing at Gil, an odd form of earth mana was reflected back at the earth king. One that was calm and sure.

Like the soil that held the roots of a tree. It took a second to recall it, but the earth king remembered the earth elves that had developed and grown.

How they had changed their forms and become an entirely different race within the earth elemental plane. How they would not be considered an elf any longer.

Knowing that some of the extinct, or the previous forms of a race were still in existence could change a lot. Especially the hierarchy of some beings.

Not just those of the world, but those that expected more from the elemental planes for their people.

Then there was the major curiosity.

Walker. The origin race that had once been human.

But tapped in to the key of all races and manas.

Even the elemental kings could not explain the origin race.

A group of beings that had managed to tap in to the origin or mana. The essence of all manas combined in their purest form.

Achieving pretty in what a singular mana was and represented was enough to make one an elemental king. An incredibly powerful being when it came to that mana.

However, with all manas that they understood being so pure, the origin race was powerful. Many times over.

Just as powerful as they were, they were mysterious.

Seeking out unique aspects of obscure manas.

Putting order to the chaos of the outer manas. Finding entirely new aspects of the elemental planes or new manas completely.

They were rarely seen, rarely interacted with, and rarely sought out. The odds that they would help someone were slim too.

Not due to their superiority, it is their detachment from other aspects of social situations. They focused on mana and existence as a whole.

In the laws of existence.

All this went through the earth king's mind.

There could be more peace with this new origin race child. One that resided within the world and brought more balance to the elemental planes.

A deterring force to stop any wars from breaking out again.

"I will give you information where the one you hunt travels.

While you are in my plane you will have this information. Otherwise, I will not act.

When those I send to the work go, take care of them." The earth king melded back in to the crystal throne.

Various pieces of earth mana moved and formed a map of the earth plane showing them their location. The size only showed a small piece of the extremely large earth elemental plane.

Many times larger than what they had imagined. But it also clearly showed where their target was.
