Midnight had a questioning expression. She had never roared while in the dragonkin form so she had been unsure how it would work. But she could feel that she was able to still breathe mes if she wanted. She could even tell that the wings she had would allow her to jump and glide in the air, so why wouldn''t she be able to roar?
The air Midnight sucked in to her lungs was under great pressure. Walker could feel that she was using a decent amount of mana to rival the roar she had heard before. She couldn''t be outdone in her very home territory. She needed to be the loudest and toughest dragon in Genesis.
"I would cover your ears. It seems that Midnight is trying to outdo your champion instead of just sending a message." Walker sighed a little and waved a hand to make the wind pick up around them a little. He knew that messing around with the wind would dampen the roar directly next to them.
Midnight''s body reared up and she jumped in to the air. The ear splitting roar that came out had too much force. Everyone in the entirety of Genesis heard it. Whether they were awake or deep underground, they heard it. The very air seemed to ripple slightly, but luckily, Midnight had not added any elemental mana to the roar. Just her own mana had been mixed in to enhance the loudness of her roar.
"And that was what I was afraid of." Everyone in the streets had frozen with looks of terror or awe. Midnight had roared loud enough to make their ears ring. Some were even holding their heads for fear that the dragons would be fighting in the streets.
<o>,m "That was very good. I would say you have raised a decent champion. That roar held a lot of demand for attention. You are a very promising champion. I will allow you to train personally with my champion if you so desire." Mordant would not have stopped the two from training in the first ce. However, saying that he would allow it made it show his respect for her and the strength she would grow in to. He was willing to step aside from the difference in age to push Midnight to be a better champion for Walker. Some dragons would attempt to weaken another''s champion to assert their dominance.</o>
Midnight gave a slight smirk before sighing and rxing her muscles. Her wings had red out behind her and made her much more imposing. Those on the street were still staring but now they were looking at the fast moving procession of dragonkin warriors led by a shy dragon champion in all ck armor and a draconic guardian in a matching set of armor with slight silver daggers on their hips.
"Fellow royal dragon Walker. Allow me to greet you as the royal darkness dragon Mordant. I have brought this gift to you. It shall show others the respect we carry for each other." Mordant changed to a very high and mighty tone. It was time for him to be serious and follow traditions more. The gift he spoke of was inside a wooden box.
''Grey rot tree ornamental box
This is a box carved from grey rot wood. It is incredibly challenging to harvest due to the darkness elemental mana causing it to rot. If preserved using darkness elemental dragon breath, it can be made in to a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. This box is ideal for storing things with high amounts of darkness elemental mana.''
Walker was oppressed. He had thought that the grey rot tree was a tree that could not grow really anywhere. Its rarity was something that many craftsmen spoke of since they would need a lot of help from mages to even work with it if it was found. It appeared that Mordant had a decent supply of this wood near his viges.<sub> </sub>
"This is the purest darkness gem created by my best dragonkin craftsmen. It is refined by myself and my champion to hold purer darkness elemental man than one can find anywhere else around. It should be very beneficial while you understand the darkness elemental mana in nature." Mordant had truly given a wise gift. Weapons? Walker didn''t need them. Monster materials? Walker could most likely find them elsewhere. But the purest darkness elemental mana? That was a hard find.
"This should be ideal for me to enhance my personal unique weapon. This gift is well met. I hope to see you and your warriors learn a great deal from Genesis while here. If you do not mind. Allow me to exin the rules of this city?" Walker knew that Mordant had most likely told them what he knew already but Walker wanted to reinforce it.
"Naturally. if it is your vige so thews you enforce will be followed within reason." Mordant couldn''t openly say he would bend to them. He had his pride, but he could ensure that his warriors did.
"Wee to Genesis! Here every race is equal. Every race has knowledge to help others and grow! I expect the same from you! We will allow you to learn as long as you do not cause trouble. If you dare cause a single problem while here…" Walker released a small burst of natural mana from the eternal orb. It was nothingrge and couldn''t harm a fly. Yet, it demonstrated Walker''s bond with a form of mana that none could go against him, if he had used darkness elemental mana then Mordant would be above him, but natural mana? Not a single person could rival Walker.
The onlookers in therge street were amazed. They were witnessing an important event while going through their daily tasks. Naturally, the gossip had already begun to spread.
