Chapter 2361: 2361. Meeting Before
?
"You need a healer to go with you." Walker had barely made it to therge room where the group of adventurers and the team following him were meeting. It had only been a few hours and that was enough to get everyone and everythinging together. Efficiency was always on the rise.
However, that efficiency meant thatmunication was happening much faster. Specifically, gossip in some i not many ways too.
"Alice? I thought you were busy right now?" Walker had made things clear with Alice after the events with the bridge to the elemental nes. She had been somewhat unhappy that Onyx and Aurora had gotten in to such a risky situation.
As much as Walker had reprimanded the two of them, or at least nned to since he could only tell Alice what he would be saying, she had still made her own points clear. She had made sure to add to the reprimand and punishments for being so at risking to the pair when they woke up from their rest.
That was not the most important part though. She had made it very clear that she was also not happy with Walker. She had yelled at him a little about him also taking these risks. He had been rushing off to everyrge problem like this in the past month at least.
Whether it had been rted to the intense amount of manas from the elements nes, or the risky ancient ruins. He had been part of it in some shape, wary, or form. Not to mention the recent events within the poison jungle dungeon where even he had been at risk whether that risk was a poison or the fact that he had to hold himself back leaving himself somewhat vulnerable while battling there.
As this had been the case, she let him have an earful about what she thought when it came to the way he had been acting. It was why he had been stuck at the desk for the past few days as well. Not just the fact that he had a lot of work he could help with there. Alice had made sure that he felt enough guilt to tie him down for a while.
That was until she heard he would be rushing off to a previously dangerous ce that he had been to and always found his life in peril. She had no good words to be said about this being the case too. She knew very well that she would rather make sure he was safe herself then just trust others right now.
"I thought you would be working with the new healers again? You were working with a dragon hatchling too. Shouldn''t you be-"
"Busy? No. I am going with you." The light shifted slightly showing that Allice was just stubborn enough that she could not and would not bridge on this.
"Then we will have a great small vacation to scout out the area around the undead ruins. I have a feeling that the healing skills you can use with light mana will put everyone at ease. You should know, a young healer is also part of the adventurer group that caught my eye."
This made Alice rx a little since she knew she had won. She also wanted to have more time with just Walker and her since the pair had been running around like crazytely. That was just the life as leaders which they had epted. But that didn''t mean finding an excuse to head off on a small adventure was not against their choices to make too.
So far, Walker saw the group of soldiers and a few adventurers who had volunteered to join him. They were familiar and they had been through different events with him. He knew they had the skills to defend themselves and also follow research. Their main duty would be to protect the smaller team making the map and recording the known changes to the area.
After a few moments of Alice giving Walker a few more looks to make sure he wouldn''t say anything else ridiculous about her noting for her having some restrictions since it might be dangerous, there was a small knock on the door.
Walker knew that as the door opened, it was the group of five young adventurers that had taken the job request to explore the area around the undead ruins and also the ruins themselves. They were waiting outside the door for a little while and Walke had sensed them. But they had been a little afraid toe inside, wouldn''t anyone though?
Walker had been worried that this would make them not want toe at all. They had been able to ept a quest that was very important to a few people. Therefore, they would be able to take arge lead in their adventuring lifepared to others when they seeded. No one else had been able to get an approval to go towards the undead city ruins.
"d you could alle so quickly. I know that this may change your ns. This isn''t to limit you or to say that you are not trusted. I just wish to see the changes that may havee because of the world returning to the proper flow and certain monsters being removed from the area in thest events near and within the undead ruins."n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
While this was mostly true, Walker also understood that after Ignus had battled the former body of the immortal king, no one else had gone in to the undead city. He had caused a lot of damage and very many undead had been defeated. But to say the entire undead city was cleared out was a foolish action.
The amounts of thesaurus there alone would still be major because of how many copsed tunnels and underground buildings there might still be. This was also putting aside the fact that the immortal king had researched undead and how to alter them in an untold number of ways while he had been trapped for more years than many could count.
"We are honored to be able to work in any form with you. We wanted to go to the undead city because we have heard the stories about it being one of the first major challenges your party faced. Our goals were to be able to test our training from sses and attempt to learn what you learned from going to the undead city." A tall stocky boy spoke up. His armor was a little rough around the edges, but he appeared very honest.
To his right there was a robed healer, instead of a normal staff, she was wielding what was more like a longer spiked white club. Walker could tell she might be something called a battle healer who could enhance a weapon with light mana while healing those around her.
There was also a pair of shorter boys who had shields and short swords. Clearly they were twins who were prepared for meleebat. While their sses were a mystery to Walker for the moment, he knew that they should be somewhat unique since they both moved in tandem. They might as well be a perfect pair trying to ensure that they continued their path to perfect teamwork.
Thest member was another girl who wore very bright red leather armor and had multiple rune carved wands on her belt. They were all radiating some fire magic and her clothing was gathering the ambient fire mana in to them. Walker had learned that some mages were struggling and had found new paths to use their spells in special ways because the mana in the air was denser.
That''s how he picked her out as the quick fire mage capable of using certain spells very quickly by storing mana within wands that she could use as soon as she touched them. It was limited in the strength and the variety of spells, but allowed for much faster attacking without loss of motion or time in battle.
"We will be allowing your group to move without any direction from us. This is still your quest. Do not forget that. However, when ites to any major danger, you will listen to our orders. You will also be allowed to ask any questions and concerns you may have when we rest. That will be decided by your team. You five are the lowest level and require rest more often. Is
that clear?"
Hearing that their hero was leaving things to them was a bit shocking. Yet, they also understood that this was just their safeguard. A chance to take a quest while also needing to show their own levels of education and preparedness. Beyond that, they were not being carried anywhere with no risk. They had to handle themselves appropriately.
