Chapter 992 - 992. Nature's Peace

Once everyone had gone their own way to rest, Walker took the chance to meditate a little. He knew that Fleur had been resting in the spirit mark for some time and it was because of the natural mana she needed. There was also the eternal orb that had filled itself with natural mana and was resting as part of Walker's chest piece. 

A short glance around landed on Onyx and Midnight who and curled up in the sun by the fire. Onyx was wrapped around Midnight to protect her since he knew how tired she still was. Walker had decided not to have Midnight and Su act as a look out while they rested. The two needed more rest so that they could get through the swamp lands and all the way to the harbor towns on the water. 

As excited as Gil was to use the ice claw owl feathers for the arrow, he did not jump in to it. He wanted to use the time to rest so he could properly look out and craft a new arrow. He may have made some arrows to fight the kraken swarm but it was not enough in his mind, Having a water and wind elemental arrow would potentially give him an added strength. But he also wanted to preserve his own mana. Zephyr was also resting in the bow so that she could have a higher reserve of elemental mana. This was the same with the alchemy fire spirit with Remey and the earth spirit with Su. 

The only spirit that had not joined them was the fire spirit that paired with the dragon style golem. It was not suited to underwater battle and instead had made itself useful around Genesis city doing patrols to keep monsters that got too close at bay. Walker hadn't even asked it to do such a thing. Instead, Midnight had used her bond with it to encourage it to do such a thing. This was just another boon for the city and the party. Having the dragon style golem around put people at ease and also showed the strength that the city had to defend the people that lived there. 

While Walker sat and controlled his breathing, he knew that the natural mana around was stronger here than in other places. This was the simple fact that the elemental spirits had helped to rehabilitate the land and bring it back to life. Their mana was mixing and creating more natural mana. It was a benefit to healing the area but also for attracting more elemental spirits. This alone would make the human kingdom adapt to elemental spirits and facilitate the return of elemental spirits to every day life as they had been part of many years again. There would also be the connection with the forest elves which would increase due to the elemental spirits knowledge they could share. 

Therefore, the pull of natural mana flowed through his body and Walker could feel his breath lighten. His body had been processing the natural mana when he learned the dance of seasons and natural regeneration. Both were causing natural mana to always flow through him and mix with his own mana. It felt right to him and he could tell that the young sage title reacted with this process. 

There was natural mana getting denser around him and he could tell that the earth below him was reacting. The plants that had hidden under the small layer of snow were reaching up and the light was getting brighter. Overall the air felt fresher and the world just a little more peaceful. 

'The skill meditation has been affected by high natural mana density. The skill meditation has been changed in to the skill nature's peace taken from the pure sage system. 

Nature's peace- passive ( requires natural mana)

The user is able to allow their consciousness to reach a peaceful state with high density natural mana. The user is able to better sense the flow of nature and also see around them at the same time. The mana around them will affect the world and cause higher growth for plants and animals. Rot and poison near the user will lessen in strength. The user will be able to calm themselves easily and clearly work through many trains of thought. The speed of gathering natural mana and separate elemental mana will increase. There are other benefits gained due to the high density natural mana.' 

Walker wasn't sure what the other benefits would be but he just relaxed and kept watch while meditating. He could tell that everyone else was relaxing more and resting better the more natural mana he brought to him. But he could also tell that Midnight and Su had absorbed a lot of the natural mana. Their bodies had been through an ordeal when the ritual happened. Since Su had a large change in her body that now led her to gain a fire breathing skill it was clear that she would need to recuperate. 

Since Midnight had gained the skill to shift in to a dragonkin form she also needed to recuperate her body. The changes that occurred were well ahead of what she would normally be able to do at her age. Knowing that the two were benefiting from his meditation was bringing a deeper peace to Walkers' mind and body. However, he was soon looking at the sun rising higher than he had wanted it to. He still had to rest himself and he stood up feeling calmer than before. 

Gil had no issue getting up and looked more refreshed than usual. The high natural mana had truly aided his rest as he got up and prepared some of his arrows to be adjusted with the ice claw owl feathers. The last thing Walker saw as he lay down to sleep for some time was Gil stretching and starting to cut the owl feathers for the fins of his arrows.
