To say that the group moved through the brooks and streams smoothly over the last few days was an understatement. They had not even come across a monster. Midnight had been actively training her roars and Neil was judging them to compare to the power of the royal dragons. Walker had been matching them when he had the chance and the mana to spare between training with water elemental mana.

Between the two, Midnight and Walker were evenly matched when it came to roaring like dragons. This wasn't a surprise for Midnight since she was a dragon. Yet, for Walker, it was a great surprise. He had been able to replicate the roar and even felt that his body had easily adapted to it. When he mentioned it to Neil he spoke on the matter slightly.

"Elder told me that you are very closely bonded with Champion Midnight. It would be understandable that through that connection your body would change. I am not well educated on this and can not speak as to how it will change…But I believe that you will be able to rival fellow royals in the future with ease.

" It felt that Neil might know a little more than he let on but Walker believed that Adair would only hold back for good reason.

Since he was going through a growth spurt for his age, Walker had carefully analyzed his own body. He did not specifically share blood with Midnight making him a dragon like being as Su had. But he did share mana and a bond of the soul. The same was true of Onyx. That had been able to share their life spans and extend Walkers' beyond normal humans'. That was already known.

However, when Walker examined the density of the muscles formed through his adventures and the skin on his body, he swore it was tougher. He also had the feeling that he was getting taller than someone for his age should be. It was just a thought but it did make him wonder if he was not just human any longer. Although, whenever he would think about this he would find his head starting to hurt. The unknown was too much to wrap a mind around. He was traversing a path no one had taken before and in doing so he would discover something new. This was the reason he started a new journal for his day to day happenings. He might just find a pattern.

"You keep worrying about these things and you will end up stuck in place and become a tree. And don't tell me you think I am joking. It has happened to elves that connect to the forest too deeply and give up their bodies to become something else. It's a mystery that we elves never solved and just let happen. It's not bad because it's their choice. But it is thought to be similar to being a sage.

" Alma casually dropped this on them making everyone wonder if there were other ways to ascend or change than what they knew. But it was quickly avoided since the world was still a mystery to all and having some positive mysteries were a good thing.

"I just wonder what will happen when you get to the royal dragon court. You said you would be going just you, Su, and Midnight, right? That will be a small but intense trip. Are you sure you don't want me to come?

" There was worry in Gil's vice. He knew that dragons were dangerous even though these were not wild dragons like the skeletal dragons that ignored and cast themselves from the dragon society.

"If he made that decision then it must be for good reason. I've learned that Walker thinks well with his mind. As long as someone snaps him back to reality.

" Leon had caught on to Walker's tendency to daydream. He had even begun to make the joke that Walker would invent a daydreaming skill at some point.

"I really only want to bring them because that is who should go. The dragonkin go because they are brought with the elders and royals. But the court is really for just dragons. If I bring other races it might be seen as trampling on their honor and culture. I need to slowly convince them that Genesis and the values we have are worth investing in.

" Midnight huffed slightly wanting to bring everyone with her. She wanted to see the wonder of the other dragons with her family.

"Lord Walker is wise indeed. If I were to see another race invade the royal court I would place my life down and defeat them. I would then have to give my own life if I survive as repentance for causing a disturbance. The royal dragon court is the most respected place for my race and the lords.

" Neil spoke as if he spoke of the very center of the world.

"Well…just make sure you are ready. I will wait for you to get back and share some stories. But I swear if you somehow start a war with dragons or make them our enemies I will shoot you out of the sky myself.

" Walker narrowly dodged a punch from Gil who was doing his best Remey impression. The group became much more animated while looking in the distance.

The same ranch for avian monsters was ahead of them and so were those that they could pay for a ride home along with a ride for the water elves that would come to Genesis. They would be home much sooner than they expected and the dragonkin would be on their way back to their village. They all had a lot to tell those back home in Genesis. But they had no idea what was waiting for them as well.
