Chapter 363 - 363. Demons
The party was soon left alone. Midnight looked like she was about to fall asleep on her feet. She had run around a lot while distracting the minimized slime.
"If you want to go to sleep first you can. There is plenty of room for everyone to spread out. But I think we should all talk a little first.
" Midnight gave Walker a little huff, she wanted to sleep but knew that she would miss some important things.
"So should we talk about the fact that the elves are going to let and even help the goblins grow? Should we talk about the new training avenues we have here in the elf city? The adventurers guild expanding? The king visiting? The fact that we just backed up the future queen of the elf kingdom and somehow changed the entire way of life for a race? Oh, and the fact that they aren't going to lock me away due to my system!?
" Gil said these things getting more and more dramatic.
"We are all trying to process it. The best part of all this is that It appears the elves and our kingdoms are safe.
" Su could think for hours about what had happened, but the current result of everything was too great to beat out everything else.
"I just want to go and learn new potions from this elf alchemist master. The old man would kill to be here right now.
" Remey was giggling to herself while laying on her back trying to stay awake.
"Speaking of potions, they said Midnight and Onyx would be allowed to go meet unicorns right?
" Gil had caught on to this.
"I thought they were extinct because of over hunting?
"
"As far as I know they are extinct, but they must have been hidden here. The real question is how in the world did the elves manage to keep them alive in captivity. From the books I have read they die when in captivity since there is a lack of natural mana.
" Walker had skimmed over the part of the books on unicorns due to the fact that they were considered extinct.
"Remember hearing the stories when I was little. When my mother was feeling well she would tell me about the pure white light element unicorns that would grow a horn of rainbow light. It was considered one of the most valuable monster materials in the country. The horn could be ground in to a powder that when consumed would permanently increase the mana pool of the one that consumed it. The problem was that a unicorn would take ten years to grow a horn, then shed it and start growing another.
"
"I remember this too, gatherers used to go out and look for the horns during the breeding season. But then they started to go after the unicorns themselves. When the horns were cut the unicorns would lose the ability to use mana and pass away. Many kingdoms banned the hunting of unicorns but in the end, they were too late.
"
Walker was thinking about how this would be possible but realized the answer was all around them,
"They elves are the perfect race to protect the unicorns. They can thrive in natural mana and some even cause it to condense. We saw the queen do it earlier, if they have mages who can keep the natural mana around them then they won't have a problem raising unicorns.
"
The party had solved the little mystery of the formerly extinct to them, unicorns. Midnight and Onyx were both listening intently. They were both even more interested to meet them now.
"I'm curious what else they have hidden away.
" Remey was yawning more every minute as she contemplated the herbs she had heard only grew in the forest or were considered rumors and didn't really exist.
"Well between all of us we are sure to learn a lot. If you manage to get any seeds maybe you can bring some herbs to grow at the mansion.
" Walker couldn't help but imagine the garden becoming even more brilliant.
"Mom would really like that.
" Gil pushed a little to encourage Remey as well. She just smiled more to herself while she lay there. Her excitement could keep her up for hours and hours if she wasn't careful.
"Leader, did you forget that when everyone gets here we have been asked to act as mediators? We will be involved in long political talks. Don't forget that the demi-humans are the opposite of the elves. They are physical and brutal. But they do have a knack for farming so we might be able to build on that.
"
Walker saw this too and fully agreed.
"They will be the perfect partners of they can get along. The only problem I see is that they both hate demons. If they hit it off over that then we will have a lot of racial hate. We should start to make a seed of possibility when it comes to that. We need them to be able to put aside the demon issue and even think about making peace with them. The problem will be if the demons want peace and are in fact the ones who caused this.
"
"I have a bad feeling about that…
" Gil looked liken his gut was telling him the demons were in fact the cause.
"We met two demons and it appears that the ones that follow their normal hierarchy are brutal and dominating. But the ones that live under them want to escape and be free of the hierarchy. If we do this right we might be able to change their culture and rescue those who want peace.
" Gil was trying to look in to the future, however, the system seemed to see this as well.

"Why did I need to say that?...
" Gil saw the quest just like everyone else and felt he had jinxed them. This quest was a very heavy and difficult undertaking.
"Su and I will try and speak about it when they all meet. But this will take a lot of time. It might be better to speak with other kingdoms first.
" Walker tried his best to make it seem like this was something that could wait. However, he knew that it was most likely a fast approaching problem they would have received a quest for anyways.
Remey had already drifted off to sleep and wasn't awoken by the quest, Walker knew she was going to freak out over it in the morning but he would deal with it when she woke up.
"I think we should talk about the slime breeder too,
" Su remembered the things Walker found out from the slime core Onyx had procured.
"That has been nagging at me too. That slime breeder was able to communicate and order the purple slimes from who knows where, and even more most likely did the same to the yellow slimes in the dwarven kingdom.
" Gil was worried over this.
"We still don't know what is going on in the dwarven kingdom after all. If we can head there we could gather more evidence.
" Walker didn't want to change their party's travel plans, but if the dwarves were in a similar position as the elves, then the party should travel to help them as well.
"How much would you all hate it if we gave the king and Ibis the information on the purple slimes then directly left to go to the mountains? We would pass home but then go right to the dwarven kingdom. We wouldn't have time to stop at home. It would be a long grueling journey.
"
"I don't think we can avoid it. As far as we know, we have the most information on what is causing the slimes to attack and show up out of nowhere.
" Gil saw this as an inevitable event.
"Leader, we should go and help them as well. We can become stronger and protect more people.
" Su only saw this as a way to protect more. This was her goal now when getting stronger. The more people she could protect them better.
"Then when Remey and..well Midnight and Onyx wake up. We can tell them the plans.
" Walker looked at Midnight and Onyx who had also fallen asleep together.
