Chapter 2189: 2189. Fooling Around


    There was a lot of thinking that needed to be done. A vacation was great, but what did that really mean after all this.


    They had just gone through things that they could not normally understand. Just the situational thinking of this doesn''t matter right now, let''s keep pushing, mentality was how they had managed to get through the elemental nes.


    They had focused on getting the immortal king and technically, they had not even done that. They had been told the immortal king would be imprisoned for ten thousand years. But that was that. There was still no chance that they would be able to brung the immortal king to an end.


    however, they had all learned a lot about the way that the world worked and what the elemental manas really did. Especially how they had mostly false impressions and understanding of manas.


    Since the world was a mix of manas alling together to create a very unique situation, there was a great difference between the manas. They worked together and often fused in to unique forms that were not even noticed because those inhabiting the world did not have the senses to find those smaller density unique manas.


    In the elemental nes, those smaller density manas rarely appeared. The mana''s purity and density was much greater. That allowed even those with lower senses to be able to sense the manas being created between boudaries. However, this also showed off the real aspects of each individual mana.


    They had very specific characteristics that changed the way that they functioned. The differences between different forms that earth mana could take on was radically different than most. On top of that, there was a lot to do with how earth mana worked overall.


    That was just part of what they had found different. Especially since there were plenty of different beings that relied on those different forms of earth mana. So the same species of monster could bepletely different because they rely on earth mana that makes crystals and thenpared to earth mana thates together to make iron.


    It was hard to pick up on how those manas were different. Especially for Walker who was finding that he was sensing manas in a different way as time went on. The development of his body and his senses were a lot to handle. But when it came to those manas, he was able to feel that there were small differences in the purity and density of that mana.


    Everyone had experienced these things within the elemental nes. The entire party was going to be stuck on plenty of different thoughts about how and what they had used mana. What manas that they had used so that they could better understand how to use their own skills.


    Their reliance on the system itself was much lower than it had been when the world was isted. Most of the time, Walker found himself not even looking at the system of existence at all. Mostly because it had be something more instinctual. Part of who he was and who everyone was. Less of a separate entity that assisted them in learning and moving forward through their growth.


    That alone was a major effect of existence over the isted world. Just with that, the world was growing much faster. Now that the elemental nes were connected better, therefore making the purity of manas grow. That meant that the world would change a lot over the next few years.


    While the party did not believe this would make the world more like the elemental nes in other than mana density, they knew that it would make it easier to travel between the elemental nes and the world. As that happened, there would be a potential for more battles between the monsters and races within.


    That meant that the party would eventually be the peacekeepers for those races reaching out to the world and vice versa. If they were to do so, they could be pulled too far off elemental nes along with needed to maintain some positions nearby the bridges between the world and the elemental nes.


    And bridges was the proper term. Not just bridge singr.


    It was certainly going to be haarder. The bridges used to be the connection to the world. But they were developing. They were not something simple and they were not somethingpletely established. Hence how the vampire race had spent a great deal of time researching the pure elemental shards.


    That also meant there might be more of those that the party could find to repair other bridges.


    Just making it a goal to better rebuild the bridges would be major. It would decide on how the world were to advance along with the elemental nes. Not that some of the bridges would be repaired naturally as that was just the flow of the world and all of existence. The bridges were part of how everything worked together.


    While it was always a philosophical question of why the world was what the world was, why the elemental nes rotated around it. Why there was chaotic manas around everything? All of that and more was out there to question. If they spent all their time thinking about those kinds of whys, they would never make more progress.


    "Walker, stop sitting there like that. You are always thinking and I know it was a lot. But live in the now for a second please." Su''s was polite but Walker still felt like he was being reprimanded. To be fair, he did space out like that a lot.


    "We managed to live. The immortal king is paying for his crimes. And we know that there is plenty to learn about races. The elemental nes are toorge to even explore. They are growing too. So, let''s see how things go."


    With Su''s approach, they would have a better mind set when it came to the changing world. She also knew that Walker was stuck thinking about what might happen and what else might be. Especially since they would be taking such arge role in all of it.


    "Sorry, I keep thinking about how manas are different than what we knew and how we are going to watch so many people change as they discover new aspects of mana and everything else about it. We even have to bring races that diverged from each other over time together


    again."


    "The dragons will be fine." Midnight didn''t hesitate to state that she believed the dragon race would be fine. To be fair, the dragons of the elemental nes and the world would have to take their own risks to venture close to one another. But the dragons of the world were not forced to follow the flow of the elemental nes.


    That alone gave them more ability to move freely. Especially since all the dominator dragons were stuck where they were in the elemental nes. As the devouring dragon had said, the dominator dragons acted as anchors for certain elemental nes. A Part of the reason they stayed in a bnce. Therefore, the devouring dragons would be the direct interaction with the royal dragons.


    "I think it''s weird that we didn''t really see any elves. I thought they would be in the elemental nes."


    "Gil, they have to be since they are argely known race. I wouldn''t doubt that there are elves just hidden in the elemental nes. You said you learned why the elves split up in the long run. So, why wouldn''t they be around? They definitely were closer to mana in the past so they definitely moved in to the elemental nes." Remey spoken to Gil like he wa just benign


    dumb.


    But that was just what it was. They were all in their own heads. So why wouldn''t they be pushing one another to get out of their own heads. It was what they did. And Remey messing with Gil was just part of her job.


    "Says the girl who is sitting here wondering about what herbs from the elemental nes that we didn''t get to bring back." Gil immediately earned himself a punch to the shoulder. But he


    also jumped to try and get Remey back.


    Plenty of odd reasons to argue and mess around, but it was mostly because they had lost the pressure on their shoulders from chasing the immortal king. They could finally rx while they rested. They didn''t have the energy to move back through the bridge yet. Not that they couldn''t take a leisurely walk through.


    "Brother, I am excited to show the others what i learned. We have a lot to show to them."


    "We do have, plenty more than what we knew before." Walker found that Onyx couldn''t think


    of anything else. He waspletely focused what he would teach the young serpents.
