Chapter 1026 - 1026. The Cause

"Walker, what's next?" Remey was the only one that was left to help Walker. She had already done her work with the potions and had been teamed up with a few dragonkin warriors until the battle had ended. 

"I would say we should help with the wounded, but it looks like the healers and Alice have that covered. The merfolk are busy cleaning up their city, and the rest are already going through their weaponry and clean up. I would say we should see what started all of this." The small cave that was at the center of the nest was still sending our high amounts of water elemental mana. 

"That works. I think keeping this problem solved longer is better. But we should also look in to how the city will recover. There are a lot of homes I can see damage from here." As much as Remey was focused on potions and fighting, she knew what it was like to worry about a home. She had grown up in the orphanage and never had a place other than that to call home until she got to the party. She didn't want to see others having to share a home with many people or missing their families. It was part of her job to help those people. Her love of potions wasn't just for show, she could use them to heal and help people. 

"We will go there next…" Walker was examining the mana that was coming from the small cave. The size of the cave could definitely be for a single kraken egg. The real question was what would be able to provide enough water elemental mana through the years for it to survive and still hatch safely. 

"Let's dig this out." Re ey started first but soon found that Fleur was right with her looking in to the cave. There was enough mana that she found it interesting. That and she had finally left the eternal orb to see the world again. She could tell the threat was over and was incredibly curious about where they were going to go next. 

The sand that they were pulling from around the small cave was much finer than the sand around. There were even small shards of water elemental crystals from what Walker could see. He didn't hesitate to store them away so he could inspect them later. 

"I think there is something glowing in there." Remey reached a hand in to find an icy cold and smooth rock. She pulled and revealed a glowing blue stone with a smoothness unlike they had expected. There were also portions of it that were clearly fused with water elemental crystals. "Check it with your appraisal. This thing is weird." 

Walker didn't hesitate to heed Remey's words. He too was extremely curious what this odd object was. 

'Water crystal geode 

This is a perfectly smoother water crystal geode. Over hundreds of years, a large stone with high water elemental mana has been beaten by the waves. The smooth shape has taken a great deal of time to properly show. This battering by waves has infused the crystal within the rock with extremely potent water elemental mana. It is similar to a water rune used by many people of the world. This is an item that can be used to craft various things but shines when it comes to promoting the growth of water affinity beings.'

"This think definitely attributed to the kraken mother growing so fast and large…I think the dragons will want to see this." Walker stored it away so that he could hold on to it. Part of him thought to give it to Current now, but he realized that it would be even better to make a statement at the royal court. "Actually, I think I will give this as a gift when we got to the royal dragon court. Current said that I need to show that I have a relationship with the water dragons. This will make that very clear." 

"Agreed. I just wonder how this was missed. Maybe it was caught up in the waves for so long that no one noticed it roll through where. But if that's the case, should we look for more?" Remey wanted to be sure that nothing like this would happen again. 

"Fleur, is there another like this around that you can sense?" Walker knew that Fleur was the best to rely on. Her senses of mana were much bater than anyone else in the entirety of the Genesis force. She could sense the way nature flowed to such a degree that Walker could only hope he would learn from her in the future. 

Fleur floated around in the water turning here and there. She eventually pulled on Walker's floating hair toward a large cropping of coral and rock. "There's more in this rock? I will mark it then." Walker used his high earth sculpting skill to make the rock in to a flag shape. It was perfect to show that they would need to go back to it and clear it. Preventing another possible monster was very important. 

"My lord wishes to speak with you." Ciel had swum over in such silence while in his dragonkin form that Walker nearly jumped out of his skin. However, he had Fleur and Remey with him so he was able to bite his tongue and hold himself still. 

"I was going to wait until he had recovered. But I won't delay anything. I want to tell him we will need help bringing this rock to the merfolk city. It's part of what caused the mother to grow larger. It can also help them rebuild." Ciel looked curious but turned away to swim back to Current. 

"You go, I will check with Su to see what needs to be done. Well, maybe I will check on Gil first." Remey didn't even make a joke since Gil was so seriously worried. She knew that she might be able to help a little calm him down.
