Master Of None

Chapter 2396: 2396. World Of Black And White



The young serpents didn't seem to be afraid as Walker and the others set foot. They also didn't mind the sudden addition of the soldiers coming behind carried by Mordant who had just joined them.

Many of them had been around Mordant at various times since he was able to have a high

control over dark mana. It was one person who had gone out of their way to help both Midnight and Onyx.

Naturally, they trusted that he would be welcoming to them and also to the new chances that they had here. Especially since this area was also very valuable to them as a race. The dark dragons would be able to venture here.

"Rise would have been very interested in this place." Mordant mumble was soft but clear. He knew that she had to remain resting to handle the stress of the last even with a higher amount of light mana. That was why she was still holed up where she could do so.

This hadn't stopped her from making sure that her light dragons were working well. She had been giving orders and gathering information. But Mordant and the others had made sure that she would not leave to come here.

As much as she would be upset with them, the dragons had begun to take one another in to account much more than what they had in the past. Therefore, they cared for the injuries and hardships they went through. Right now they were a united race able to help one another, having the royal dragons lean in to that heavily would just help them all grow.

"I can see why this area is so unique. If you had not allowed me to come here with my dragonkin soldiers, they would lose the chance to grow as well." mordant had focused again and was now seeing that his dragonkin were able to use a little more of their natural skills.

They were all dark affinity and that was just the connection and reason they followed Mordant. Therefore, this area was very valuable to them. But he had also managed to take quite a few of the light affinity dragonkin with him as well since they had been doing other tasks that were able to be finished and leave them free without Rise worrying.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"I know that their camp is in a perfect spot and that the dungeon is right there. I can also feel the natural dark and light mana moving around this whole area. A smaller magic tower there would be a perfect way to ensure we can move to this area and also to potentially boost the natural effects without changing anything." Walker knew that this project was still ongoing.

Right this moment, a new magic tower had begun to be built in a small state as he had just mentioned on the Sigil continent. There was also a few leads on new places or places that already showed development.

The starting aspects of their plans had been to plant unique herbs that enhanced the draw of natural manas in areas already dense with them. This was working in a handful of places which was allowing for the chances of naturally forming runes. Some of these areas were the dragon territories since they were already attracting large amounts of these manas with the rune formations made there.

While it was seemingly successful so far, time was still needed for all of this to even be a potential.

"We are going in the dungeon now." Alice didn't even leave the rest of them to begin to check in with the young serpents and their camp. They had cleared the area pretty well and made it a decent place to rest. Most of the soldiers that came could rest here without needing to worry about clearing more plants from around them. But more so, they could see that various monsters had been sneakily taken down by the younger serpents.

Whether it was the two different types of needle cluster plant monsters or even a few of the predators that Walker had pointed out to Gil, they had defeated them. This also saved the issues that Waler had when he had thought that they needed to defeat or capture some of these monsters.

He even spotted an odd form that was clear, it used light mana to hide itself and its body was mostly clear like glass or the wings of a dragonfly. It was a monster that he believed he had read about or potentially seen before but this was a much clearer one that he could tell had a much higher affinity for light mana. Something that drew his attention.

Regardless, he had no choice, Gil gave Walker a nudge to keep moving because he noticed that Walker hadn't started to move. The alla round appraisal habit that Walker had was still there but if Gil held back he knew they would both get yelled at. Alice was already humming a song to buff them as well.

The boost from her songs would let them handle whatever they found within this dungeon. The light and dark manas that they felt the moment they stepped through was shocking. Alice could feel the light mana latch on to her immediately.

As it always did, the light mana moved around her. The simple hum of her words drew it in let alone actually speaking. But here, the light mana was denser and also was calmer. It was more welcoming and moldable to her natural affinity and ability to use it. Therefore, it felt like she was almost working with an elemental spirit or a spirit race rather than using her skills to manipulate it.

When she stopped humming for a moment, Walker knew she was overwhelmed. Not necessarily in a bad way, but trying to handle the mana. Alice had struggled with her own mana take away when she spoke and also sang. That was a rough childhood and a harsh Learning curve.

Now, she had control of it but when the light mana was this close and this attached to her, she needed to sue her utmost care.

It wasn't just that she could be influenced and even potentially harmed by the light mana, but because it was also balanced with dark mana.

Alice didn't have the affinity for dark mana.

If she were were to absorb it by accident, then there would be some issues. She would need to focus on purifying her body and also focus on removing that dark mana. Beyond that, she would have to consider the fact that she couldn't control a large amount of light mana when it surged toward her.

"I can make the mana keep away. It's calm now, it won't be harmful just by coming closer. But I know it's closer than normal and stronger. So I can manipulate it to slow around you." While this would take significant focus for Walker since the manas were so balanced and in their own flow, he could do it.

When Alice grabbed his arm though, he knew she didn't want him to make a move. She wanted to rely on her own strength and walk right up to Onyx and Aurora to make sure they knew how worried she was. To make sure they heard about what they had done wrong and how they can

fix it later.

After a few deep breaths, the humming was switched to a slow song. The manas moved slower. Even with the light mana slowing, the dark mana did as well. A show of their balance and also of how Alice understood the ways that light mana interacted with other manas

around it.

"I can sense them ahead. I would say there's a larger gathering of dark and light mana in perfect balance ahead. We should be wary."

It wasn't Gil or Walker who said this. It was Mordant. For him to feel uncomfortable it was a very big deal. He could sense a threat to him which was very bad.

"Then we will live as carefully as possible." The serious change in all of them was clear. They weren't just worried now, they were ready to fight as hard as they needed to survive.

Even paying more attention, Walker could feel that a naturally forking rune within this dungeon was clear. The perfect balance of light and dark manas feeding the dungeon was perfect for it to form.

However, that instinctual flinch that he had. That was something strong enough to challenge his ability to manipulate manas as a whole. Specifically, he could feel that he would be unable to fully stop the usage of the dark or light mana by whatever was ahead.

Where Onyx and Aurora were, they were witnessing the first naturally formed dual elemental rune. They could feel every bit of awe that came with it. But they couldn't remain focused in it because they knew there was something else watching their arrival.
