Chapter 986 - 986. A Fathers' Love
"Remey…Remey!" After shaking her a little and increasing his volume, Walker managed to get Remey to begin to wake up. He wasn't sure how late she had actually been up but with the way she was acting, he knew that he needed to give her the coffee that Trish had made for her.
"Hmm? What?" The lost look was washed away by a face of understanding as Remey pushed herself from the work table and chair. She tried to stretch but managed to just somewhat move her arms then see that Walker was holding a cup. "Good…" She drank the whole thing in two gulps. "Elven reduced coffee. Not bad. You got the- yup. Let's go." Walker wasn't sure how Remey would be able to make it but he pulled some fruit from his storage and handed it to her.
The volunteers from the human kingdom would be on the move already. The king had sent his own communication forward and they should be setting off on their journey soon enough as well. The demi-human forces were being led by Scylla that had left as soon as the meetings were over to prepare. Apparently, they would be getting there through safe river passages that would allow them to swim the entire way. For an aquatic trait demi-human, it was much faster.
The dwarves already had most of their underwater golems marching. They had been set to obey orders of a select few elite guardsmen that the dwarves had sent. The three kings were not going themselves because of the massive undertaking in the city. If they were to leave then they would risk the future growth of the underground portions of Genesis city.
"Walker!" The high priest was waiting with Alice in front of the adventurers' guild. The rest of the party was already there. Walker was not surprised to see that Midnight was back to her normal dragon form. He had taken the time to speak with her carefully about the dangers of battling in the dragonkin form she was not used to. It was easy to make her understand and she willingly switched with a significant amount of mana spent. One thing that they had not expected to occur when the shift happened because the other dragons they had seen shift were unaffected in appearance when mana was concerned.
"Sorry for taking some time. I had to store a lot of potions that Remey made." Remey didn't even react when Walker blamed the massive number of potions that she had made for the issue that they had for not coming faster.
"That's fine. But you need to swear that you will be right there in front of my Alice." The worried look on the high priest was one only a loving parent could have. It was embarrassing for Alice but it also made her know that she was loved even more than she thought.
"You have my word that myself and the entire party will do our best to make sure that Alice is safe. I know that she had been training and is ready but I will still be there." Walker knew that he could use a lot of his mana to make the water around more dense if it came to it. This could act as an impromptu shield against attack. But it would be a worse case scenario since it would put Walker as a temporary sitting duck.
"Good. Then be safe." The high priest knew if he stayed even a second later he would not allow her to go. He turned quickly and walked back toward the cathedral. No one noticed the single tear making it down the side of his face as he realized that the little girl he had found on the cathedral steps had grown up before he even realized it.
"You look pretty amazing in that." Walker looked at the white rune sewn fabrics that held together thing metal plating. It was a mix of a priest's robe design and a so called paladin armor that was popular in the church during travels. The wandering blacksmith had also added light runes to the metal causing the light elemental mana in the air to be drawn to Alice and cause a slight glow.
She had what was seemingly an innocent wooden walking stick but as Walker examined it he noticed that it was more. He had to use his all around appraisal skill on it to sate his curiosity.
' Heartfelt Whitewood staff
Mana+8, Matk+6, Def+4, Light mana affinity
This is a special staff carved by a high priest. It is only able to be carved by someone able to manipulate light elemental mana for healing. This staff is made by a loving individual and added additional bonuses by infusing it with constant healing spells during the process, therefore, the white wood this staff is made out of is able to store light elemental mana to a small degree. This staff is ideal for anyone that required light elemental mana to perform their skills.'
Walker didn't say a word about the staff. It was too pure and he felt that if he were to even add a word about it he would devalue how pure it was. The high priest knew how to show his love for his adopted daughter in more ways than anyone would know. But this staff right here was proof of just how powerful it was.
"I have my arrows and the elf enforcers already left ahead of us. We should be the last leaving but that's not a problem. We are the only group that will cut through the swamplands so we will get their first." Gil had spent the morning mapping the route again. He wanted to travel with Alma but had the commitment to the party. He would be able to stand beside her again when they reached the harbor town.
"Then it sounds like we are ready to go." The party nodded and prepared to head off again.
