Chapter 1930 1930. Pure Bond
Remey and Ignus slowly opened their eyes staring right at one another. There was a clear difference in the way that they looked at one another and even the way that they breathed. It was very surprising to see that their clothing and the runes on their body had somehow managed to stay.
The runes had become similar to tattoos. They were bright red as if they were flames still, but they were different. The runes were hard to understand even when Walker tried to use the all around appraisal on them. This was just part of it though, the fire mana around them that still lingered was drawn in by the runes.
This led Walker to understand that he could not beat either of them in any attempts to control fire elemental mana. Just as Ignus took a deep breath, the fire mana revolved around him and was drawn in. it was also being purified with every following breath. Walker could sense the higher quality of mana because of his true mana sense skill.
It was clear that the mana had been focused on their bodies and soul. Not on their clothing or anything else in the room. There were not even scorch marks below them where the egg shaped flames had encapsulated them. This alone was something that meant the mana had been acting with incredible control that outdid everything else that people were capable of.
The things that the dominator dragons had left were methods to become stronger that not every dragon could do. The higher level of understanding of elemental manas was so high that it had been something that others would not be replicated or even able to understand without also have the same level or higher level of understanding.
It was also known that these were records passed down to the dominator dragons from an originator dragon. One that created and shared all the knowledge to the weaker dragons. This meant that it was knowledge that superseded what anyone else had or could understand. Just the fact that both Remey and Ignus had managed to use this knowledge was an entirely unprecedented event.
In his dragonkin form, Ignus showed many differences. His eyes appeared sharper but also a brighter red eris. The scales on his body appeared a deeper red and had the rune designs in a brighter red. Not to mention their sharper and more abrasive shapes that appear to relax after he had realized this new ability to control them.
He also flexed his claws before allowing them to retract and be more human like in his hands. The same for his mouth as well. It appeared that he had learned to better control the way his form existed in dragonkin form. Able to make it appear to be more human like or more dragonkin like.
It was something that Walker believed had become part of this because of his relationship to more humanoid races. It tied him closer to them since he had said he would protect them.
On the other side of things, Remey also had some changes. Her hair had changed color to a very bright red. Streaks of orange ran through them which made Walker wonder if her hair would burst aflame at any moment.
Her eyes were also the same red as Ignus now. But what surprised Walker were the small scales made of condensed flames. They were dissipating as Remey stored the purer fire mana within her body for later use. Something that was also new.
Being able to condense flames as scale was a new skill that definitely came with the bonding between Ignus and her. However, it also signified that the control over purer fire was very forward in the skills and methods that Remey had learned and deeply understood due to this process.
"You did well. I do not see damage." Ignus spoke, but his voice was smoother than before. It was like he had cleared away everything within his body that had been impure for fire to reside. It had seemingly made him healthier and more eloquent.
"There was a lot of fire. Especially in the end. I had to bring in some water to help." Walker was slightly bashful since he was still worried that something bad would happen. But he looked around again and found the entire massive basement of the alchemy guild to be safe.
"No, I can feel it, nothing bad happened and there isn't any lingering fire mana around. It is all taken care of." Remey flexed her body as the runes lit up slightly. Her eyes focused on Walker for a moment and he could see that she had overlapping pupils. Dragon and human. Both seemingly working together to be able to see more than what was there for Walker to see.
"I take it everything worked out well?" Walker held his breath while looking at the two.
"Yes. I have gained the blessing of pure fire and the original dragon. I am now able to begin the next steps and become a proper dominator dragon. I will be unable to take a dragon form for a period of time. I must maintain my control over the pure flame that is becoming one with my being." Ignus spoke carefully. It was clear that this control was taking up a lot of his focus and effort.
"I am the same. We split the pure mana that we gathered. We used all of our mana and replaced it with that before we will gain mana back. I have the blessing of true flames and I received a title too." Remey was abnormally calm as she also was slowly controlling the pure flames.
" True fire dragon blessed is my title. It means that I am recognized as a fire dragon and treated as one. I can learn to use some skills related to them. I also can create a style related to that. Pure dragon flame alchemy. Pure dragon brawling." Remey spoke and a little excitement leaked out. But she quickly refocused and kept her control.
What Walker understood from all this was better than what he had just looking at them. Having the two new skills for Remey meant that she now could create dragon flames. PURE dragon flames. Flames that could not be rivaled by even the grand elemental spirit slumbering within the spirit marks. But what would that mean?
This mystery could be figured out later. For the moment, Walker wondered what would happen. Was the better or worse than natural alchemy? Would Remey be limited by certain things now? Could she follow Ignus and gain control and strength? Or would she be carving her own path?
"Stop that. You worry enough to make us angry. Accept that this is what the first steps appear to be. You have helped us as we asked and trusted. But you might have seen more than we like for now. Just leave us to gain control. It will be a few days." Ignus was still remaining calm.
Walker understood that the figures taking shape within the flames were memories that the two had shared. It was private and very deep. Therefore, they would feel some type of way about it. But when Ignus looked at Walker, it was more of a glance that told Walker he did not wish to speak about it all. That instead, he wanted to time to process everything now.
As Walker left, he had his own flurry of thoughts about the future and what a dominator dragon really meant. On the other hand, Remey and Ignus had returned their attention to one another.
"Half and half. That was your plan?" Remey wasn't sure if this was good enough for Ignus.
"Yes. it will take time to gain enough power to break through to the next step. But you are the only equal I saw." these words were not filled with any negativity or anything that could be seen as bad. Instead, it held a pride and respect greater than what Remey and Ignus had used with one another before.
"You saw it all."
"I did. And so did you."
The two understood how they had grown. Their lives to this point. Childhood, adolescence, and even the smallest details before they met and fought with one another. It was enlightening. Remey and seen years go by as if they were the blink of an eye. Ignus had seen the purely human emotions he never experienced before due to his own upbringing.
The two could understand their differences and also their similarities. But when the two moved, they could sense one another. This was the purity of the fire they could manipulate. It was the link they had created through sharing the purest of flames. Something that was beyond what would normally exist where they were. This was only something that could form within the deepest of the plane of fire.
