Chapter 2281: 2281. All Wrapped Up...
Walker's time with the royal dragon did not last very long within the Genesis building. They were all busy, as was he.
Whoever, he was interested to hear that more hatchlings had been advancing faster than before. It wasn't just the gathered mana being denser or the mana being of a higher purity. It was the knowledge that they were gaining from various sources.
The elders who supported these changes and helped the hatchlings explore the city since those elders could take dragonkin forms were amazed. They witnessed hatchlings with affinities for certain classes that the dragons had never seen.
Whether it was alchemy, forging, or even healing all of those were new to the dragon race. They had relied on strength, leadership, and territory. They rarely had to deal with other classes since they worried about their bodies. The draconic runes were even less researched as well because of that.
Now, Genesi was advancing more than just one race. All knowledge is being traded freely and for all. This allowed the dragonkin and the younger dragons to take chances in their lives. To find ways to walk a path which never would have been walked by them if they remained in their isolated villages without other races to meet with.
Hence why there were now hatchlings taking the lead in that respect. They were young and adaptable. They were able to listen to their dragon history which was being organized properly for the first time in many generations. Learn from it, while also learning about other histories.
That alone gave them the knowledge needed to be able to develop different ways of living in general. Whether it was learning to communicate at a younger age. Whether it was manipulating manas at a younger age. Or taking on a class entirely, which a few had already done.
Their growth would lead to them furthering the mark that the dragons had on history overall. Especially since the history of Genesis as a whole was going to be something more than what many had ever expected. Just looking at things as they were now, well, it was something spectacular.
Regardless, once he had managed to speak with the dragons, Walker was glad to hear about the gale horn ogres. They were a very interesting race which exceeded the ogres known to the world.
The fact that they had significantly high intelligence which allowed them to survive within the wind elemental planes was a key factor of how they would be able to fit in to Genesis overall. Not because they were able to manipulate wind mana, but because they were very different from the ogres of the world.
The current monsters known as ogres were tough to deal with and brutal. They used physical force without magic at all. They also healed fairly quickly and could cause massive damage to a small village or population of other monsters. They also rarely lived together.
The gale horn ogres were smaller and had sacrificed strength to gain intellect and mana control. Wind mana control allowed them to use their natural affinities to fight and survive. Here in Genesis, they would not need to worry about being hunted down to be consumed for the pure wind mana gathering within their horns and their bodies.
long term.
"Brother."
"Onyx, you could have waited for me at home. I was heading there now. I even ignored the temptation to stay at the alchemy and crafting guild meeting and learn about some new materials." Walker's laughter at that was hiding his temptation to turn around and do so. He knew full well that he could be pulled back there.
"You can't go back home yet. Brother, we have an issue to handle." for Onyx to come looking for Walker as soon as he returned meant that this was not something small. It also meant that Onyx wanted to make sure that it was handled properly and was not just here to get Walker, but wanted to help with it as well.
"What's going on? You are acting a little too serious for this to be something small." Walker knew that this had to be handled carefully. He trusted Onyx and Onyx trusted him. He had grown up fast and well, so Onyx knew that Walker would match his focused and serious
attitude.
"We found another ruin. It has more eggs from when the ancient angels hid underground. They are different than the race I lead." This was more than enough to make Walker understand why Onyx needed him right now.
