Master Of None

2172 2172. Dark Directions

Venturing in to the dark plane is not something that I have the right to do. Instead, I will call out to one who can easily traverse it. I can no longer sense the travels of your criminal." Walker was somewhat worried about the darkness elemental plane that they had neared. Right now, they had a large number of light dragonoids with them. Then the light devouring dragon. They would naturally be weaker within the dark elemental planes because it resisted them. The light mana would not be great enough to overpower the dark mana at such a higher density and purity. For these beings that relied on light mana, they would perish or suffer immensely. Therefore, Walker wondered if they would even be able to come with the party. The light devouring dragon and sworn to help them, it was a large bonus to have them along. Especially with the number of undead increasing. With the strength of them rising too. The light devouring dragon roared out making slight bits of light mana to flow from his body. He was not just using his roar, but mana to resonate with it so that a message was portrayed. Walker could sense it and understand that it was a call to other devouring dragons. They worked together as this was one thing that they had to do to protect balance. It was only a few moments later before a few shadows moved out of the darkness that was the dark elemental plane. A place where sight was impossible due to the entire lack of light. Walker could rely on his mana sense, but the others were more limited right now. They couldn't sense manas in the same way that he did. Part of Walker wanted to find a skill that allowed him to share his mana sense skill with others, but his focus was taken away by the dark dragonoids that had appeared. They radiated more dark mana than the light dragonoids radiated light mana. Not because they were trying to intimidate them, but because they just naturally released it since they were so in tune with the dark mana that they always remained within. This was the same as the rare few mages who meditated within denser mana filled areas to be able to better understand that mana. They would be known for being unable to keep their mana in control after only focusing on it for days, if not weeks on end. "Our lord has sent us with a message." one dark dragonoid stood in front of the others. It was clear that the light dragonoids already had an idea of what they were going to say. "After gathering a large amount of pure dark mana, the one you seek traveled away. They left the remnants of over a hundred skeletons. We have eliminated those that survived after being manipulated in some ways." This meant that the immortal king had either moved very quickly, or he was beginning to grow in strength by altering his own body and the undead with him. Both were not good things to know that were happening. The experimentation and also not stopped at all. The dark dragonoids had just proved that the immortal king had created some form of dark infused experimental skeletons. The same thing that the immortal king had been doing within every elemental plane. It made it clear that the immortal king was influencing the skeletons to learn a certain way to add manas to his own weaker body. If anyone were to start over, it was a surety that they would do a great deal differently. Right now, that was what the immortal king was doing. He was rebuilding his body with better everything this time around. If they were too slow, then it would be more dangerous. "Follow the boundary in to the broken planes. We will travel with you to ensure that all undead hordes are handled. Our lord requires it." The dark dragonoids were all seriousness and that was all. They didn't even ask about the sorry with the light dragonoids. Not that they asked anything. Right this second, the party had the clear examples of what other dragonoids appeared as. The dark scales on the dark dragonoids' bodies were the same as if they had not been near the light of even the moon before. They would completely disappear within shadows too, from what the party saw, they had the ability to travel within shadows if they desired to do so. Moving with so many dragonoids also had an interesting effect. Walker could tell that they naturally made the elemental manas within the boundaries move. The same for any monsters ahead. It appeared that the unique aura of a dragonoid and mana devouring dragon would scare them away since they knew the consequences of crossing their paths. The party did begin seeing small bone pieces here and there. Slowly decaying away or purifying due to the clashing dark and light manas. They were only overshadowed by more dark dragonoids which had been waiting where they defeated the undead. A sign that they were also now invested within the battle happening. They had been ordered by their dark devouring dragon though, they were leading the group of light affinity dragonoids and dragon because they had been told to, not because they had a deal with Walker to visit the world. "You are here. I pursued them to this point. I can not leave the plane right now. We have balance to uphold while another is away." The dark mana shifted as another dragonoid like figure appeared, but it was more developed in the same exact way that the light devouring dragon was in his dragonoid form. This was a dark devouring dragon through and through. "Yes, you are defending this entire area of your plane while the other darkness dragonoid is away to bring another dark plane in to balance with this one. We appreciate the defense here." The light devouring dragonoid had information that the party did not. Clearly, he also knew this dark devouring dragon. "Know that for your assistance, we also appreciate it. When you are free to do so, you should visit the world as well. We will welcome you as long as it is safe." Walker was not going to play games. He saw the many skeleton pieces breaking down in the darkness. He could sense it. This dark devouring dragon had just defeated many undead left behind. The immortal king had nearly been in a worse fight than before with the space elemental plane. A low appreciative growl vibrated the dark mana. "And to you from the world, welcome to the balance. Good luck hunting. The undead may have already reached the nearby imbalance planes." Walker and the party all gave a nod at this. From what he could tell, the dark devouring dragon had learned more from the mana sent between the light devouring dragon and it than what he had expected. This meant that the manas used to convey words were even more complicated than what all of them had grasped before. Even with his mana sense, Walker had not realized that the entire situation was so clear to the newly informed dark devouring dragon.

It was a good thing though. The dragon could visit the world safely now that he had met them. Something that would protect the people of Genesis. Another skeleton warrior moved in the distance but a spear of light and darkness pierced through the air. Destroying it in the blink of an eye. Only shards of degrading bones were left behind.

It gave them all a clear direction to move. "Stronger. Getting stronger." Walker could sense the ease behind what Midnight had said. She still maintained her habit of rarely speaking. It was just how she was, more observant than anything. But she could sense more clearly that the skeleton warriors had been stronger than the first they saw. "That's because the undead left behind are skeleton knights, and that one is a death knight." Heavily armored skeletons were right in front of them. They wore slightly degraded armor. Their swords and shields were solid metal. But their broken wings on their backs proved these skeletons came from the bodies of ancient angels.

The death knight was the same, however, its body was coated in dark mana. It had an affinity with dark mana and was carrying a sword that gave Walker the impression it had control over a slight amount of death mana.

"So the immortal king has brought out his best now? He's close to what he wants." There was a slight crack and Remey stretched her neck and arm before darting forward to punch a hole in the first skeleton knight's body.

It crumpled in like soft tin, but the sword it held still arced down to strike at her. They weren't easy to defeat in one move, even for Remey. These were tougher skeletons than the party had fought before. Hand crafted skeleton knights. !
