Chapter 1921. Wonderful Light
The smaller light dragon hatchling was clearly able to handle being outside the nest. But it was very timid. The strongest light dragon had taken it personally from its home and out in to the world. This alone was a big deal to any newly born being. But for a dragon, this hatchling was still considered prey to many things due to its age.
That was why they would stay in the dragon village with many powerful dragons to protect them. The dragonkin would even take their turns educating them through the years. Yet, here a young light dragon was without any way for it to protect itself.
This was just too surprising for Midnight who was wondering what such a dragon would be able to do. However, Rise just let the little hatchling walk over to Midnight and sniff her to memorize who she was and that she was the one that would guide her.
"You will show me what everyone else had been boasting. I expect that this one shall grow in the most unique and appropriate way." Rise turned and flapped her wings back in to the air. She would take her full dragon form and enjoy the sun way up in the sky. She had not been able to do so lately and wished to recover some of the light mana she could store in her body.
This left Midnight with the plain, bit confused face that anyone would catch on to if she sat there with it. But she had also become very curious as well. The little hatchling was very unique.
While Midnight had already felt the very unique light elements mana within the little hatchling, she had no idea why it was so pure. The pure light elemental mana was something that people would On top of this, even elemental mana crystals needed to be condensed and purified to be able to have purer mana of whatever have to work hard for. Mages, light swordsman, or healers all needed to work much harder to be able to gather such pure light mana.
On top of this, even elemental mana crystals needed to be condensed and purified to be able to have purer mana of whatever affinity they were. It was a process that many mages had to take to be able to study their affinity mana more carefully. Walker had purified multiple elemental manas where Midnight could watch. She knew the value of a purer mana.
This was just part of it though. She could see that the little hatchling had tougher scales as well. They glittered with a slightly translucent light. This showed that light mana was naturally being absorbed by them. It was a necessary ability for any elemental dragon to be able to bolster their defenses with the manas that they had an affinity with.
The translucent effect of this meant that the light was bending around the scales as they pulled in the light mana. Therefore, it would be defensive ability that might be able to deflect some magical attacks. The manas would be in interference with the light mana that already existed within the dragon's scales and body.
"Come with me." Midnight was in her dragonkin form and lifted the little dragon hatchling on to her shoulder where it dug its claws in to her and held on tightly. It was a little afraid of Midnight since it could sense that she was much more powerful than what she could ever be able to defend.
Midnight had grown a lot. The fact that she could take a dragonkin form was already a clear cut way to show that she was stronger than most. But furthermore, it showed that she was able to control her strength enough to be around other similar beings. This was something that every dragon had to learn.
Compared to the other monsters, especially the dragonkin that served them, the dragons were often stronger by large margin. If they could not control their strength then they could harm the ones that they were supposed to protect. This was not something that had never happened before. It was just a fact that every dragon had to face and focus on learning about at some point.
That was still not the only thing that the little light dragon hatchling could sense. She could feel that midnight was using more than just light elemental mana. The basic instincts that came to the little hatchling told her that she was not anywhere near the ability to counter Midnight if she were to use other elemental manas that were already contained within Midnight's body.
That was all just instinctual though. Many more aspects of how Midnight moved could show off to the hatchling that midnight was dangerous. The fact that the dragonkin and many others of Genesis waved or made actions to greet Midnight proved that she was held in high regard. Naturally, a dragon hatchling would see this as them recognizing Midnight's strength.
"The cathedral." Midnight pointed a single clawed finder at the larger stone structure that the little hatchling could vaguely sense. It was the light elemental mana within that she could tell was important. But even in the large square, her eyes were darting.
Multiple light affinity beings were moving through. A harpy was flying by with pure white feathers as little bits of light seemed to dance around her. It was a demonstration of how she used her skills related to light mana to move faster. But there were also light mages that moved.
Before the little hatchling could see more though, Midnight pushed forward and cut through the open square and up the stairs of the cathedral. The healers recognized her and were very happy to greet her. A few children even rushed up and inquired about the hatchling on her shoulder. But Midnight did not share much. Even with the ability to speak most human words, Midnight preferred to remain silent at most times. She liked the dragon growls or huff since it felt better to communicate that way still.
This was why Midnight could understand the short shy and slightly fearful huffs coming from the little hatchling. Midnight knew that this was a lot of activity and plenty more new things to see than what the hatchling would be able to handle most of the time. However, she was still not able to shake the feeling that the hatchling was more amazed than anything, even though it did not show.
The large amount of healing light skills and manas around were enough to show that this pace was an ideal home. But when Alice saw Midnight while speaking with a large group of healers, she made a move to separate herself and see what was going on.
"You brought a friend!" Alice noticed the little hatchling and held out a finger in greeting. Aurora slithered up Alice's arm and looked at the little dragon hatchling. A small bit of light mana escaping her and floating around the air.
This was a mix of Alice humming a little and Aurora using her ability as a heavenly serpent to be able to manipulate light elemental mana easily. The two actions surprised the little hatchling, but she raised her head and accepted the little bits of light mana greedily. She was very glad to see that some people were welcoming enough to give her what she needed to be able to grow stronger. Every hatchling knew that understanding the mana that they had an affinity for was very important.
"Training. That's what she needs." Midnight's blunt explanation was enough for enough for Alice to get a handle on what was happening. But Alice just shook her head and pointed to the side where multiple light affinity healers had gathered. Specifically, a multitude of those who could use music to heal.
"Learn and watch." Midnight could understand what Alice was thinking. Especially since multiple heavenly serpent hatchlings had taken up spots basking in the light elemental mana around the crystal and the stands where the healers were preparing for a performance.
This was a normal occurrence for the healers in the cathedral. It would both help heal those with smaller injuries but also help the elderly to regain a little more energy. This was a normal thing for any church or cathedral that wanted to help all the people around them.
Feeling that Alice had a great idea, Midnight took herself and the little hatchling closer. Just before the first sound of a soft piano began playing, the little dragon hatchling sensed the light mana react. It was because Alice had opened her mouth and begun to sing an equally soft and sweet song about the growth of spring.
The little light dragon hatchling watched as the light began taking shape. Forms of flowers and forests that she had never seen. Images of peaceful monsters living within the forest of light taking shape around the entire cathedral. The depths of this wonder etched their way in to the very core of the little dragon hatchling.
