Chapter 1194 - 1194. Standing Up

"Do not interfere with my mana. If we wished to crush you then-" 

"You will not erase me and do not even believe you have a chance. You once had a dragon capable of manipulating natural mana and it has been quite a long time since then. Without one the dragons are weaker. You should have a true dragon champion among your champions but you do not. Look at me, human! Yet I have the skills to bond with a nature spurt, manipulate natural mana, bond with a true dragon champion and share the bloodline between my champion and guardian. If you dare look down on myself or my family I will ensure a new royal takes your place." 

There was a cold violent mana within Walker's words. He glared at every single royal dragon. He had not raised his voice by much but Fleur had changed her slight aloof expression to one twisted in anger. She may have been young in this world but she understood enough. The one she had bonded with felt threatened. The one that had built a place just for her and let her experience more than just mana needed her to show her strength. 

"This child is just like Ignus as a hatchling. Domineering and defensive of their family. Come and see me after you are acquainted with your fellow royals. I wish to hear about you and how you stand here today." The rumbling deep voice shook the entire building causing every single royal dragon to contract their mana. Even Fleur pulled back which made Walker know that it was no small matter to be spoken to from what seemed to be nowhere. 

Walker knew that this was a big deal. Just looking at the royal dragon's forced calm faces made him understand. " The eldest keeper has not spoken in many years. I can not say if it is a blessing for them to place their gaze upon you." Rise spoke slowly and carefully knowing that this keeper was watching and listening from elsewhere. 

"There can't be any comparison to my flames and his." Ignus seemed a little thrown off his comparison but knew better than to refute it outright. The keeper had known Ignus for the entropy of his life and even those before Ignus.

"I would like to see that circlet. I still find it interesting." Mordant willed shadows to reach up and grasp the box holding the circlet. He felt it was fine to let Walker's threats roll off since no one was actually planning to make a move. "My dragonkin have talent but they lack runes of this fusion. Ancient and new. I do have a dark spirit with me. I have met many and bonded with one over my seclusion."

The circlet appeared to fit perfectly as Mordent examined it. The spirit he spoke of rose from his shadows and prodded the circlet. After some examination, it melted in to it comfortably causing Fleur to move from Walker and check as well.

Every single royal focused on Fleur. Nature spirits were exceedingly rare no matter where someone went. "Appreciate you checking my seclusion partner. I can tell they are comfortable." Mordant spoke with warmth making Fleur nod in approval before she floated back to Walker. 

"And does his gift work?" Terron spoke much more calmly than before. He had genuine curiosity now that the keeper had spoken. To him, that meant that the person in front of them had more than just a little credibility. 

"Yes. The mana flow is exceptional. I would recommend any who opposed our new fellow royal shows some repentance. They may still get one of these and have the chance to see more in the years to come." Mordant took the chance to hold it above the others since he rarely had the chance to do so in the court. 

" I hope that you can share on with me. I can promise to share with you some times about light elemental mana. I have a feeling you may need them." Rise reached out and light condensed in to a small book that moved in the air toward Walker. 

"I had them specially made for each of you. How could I refuse to give them? Knowledge is incredibly valuable however, I hope you would allow me to welcome some of your dragonkin one day. They may find Genesis interesting."

"He does not lie. One of my elders sent a group of dragonkin to his village. They returned with brilliant new insights derived from multiple sources. One also assisted their city in exterminating a rather annoying demon. That's a tale for another day. I would like to investigate these circlets as well." Current had lost patience and found the perfect time to interject in the conversation. 

The box got Current was caught by a tendril of water controlled by Current. "This does seem rather good. My blacksmiths could learn a thing or two."

"Well, a crafting guild has been formed in Genesis. Skills and knowledge are shared freely. It's the same with the alchemy guild, adventurers guild, tamers guild, and some academies attached to them. A very good place for every race to come together and grow." Walker was sure to make this clear while he looked at the royals yet to take these circlets. 

"Fine. I shall properly test this fire dwelling circlet. If it does not store my mana and melts I will not send a soul to see your small village." Ignus held his head high and stepped down from his throne. He preferred to be right in front of Walker when this circlet would melt under his heat. 

While the circlet was placed on and the fire elemental mana increased, Walker smirked. "What do you think? My champion used her flames to help forge it. Can it resist your flames?"
