Chapter 1937 1937. Finding Water



"I might be falling behind now." Current looked up at the sky. It wasn't that he had seen or understood what had happened. It was a slight sensation. Just a tickle in the back of his mind that spread a shiver through his whole body. But it was a weaker feeling that he got when he sensed Ignus step forward on his own path to becoming a dominator dragon.

"What's wrong? Should we be preparing more? I know that this new lake and the canals will be harder to manage project, but we have the workers. Both the water elves, and aquatic demi-humans agreed to work with my merfolk builders to create this. We even have more earth mages." Leon found himself wondering what had changed all of a sudden.

"No, I just got the feeling that I was falling beyond. I have to return my focus to other important things." Current was a little short, but it wasn't out of rudeness or cruelty. He was just feeling slow.

"I know that feeling. When I saw how strong Scylla was when fighting on the water...well, I felt like I wasn't really born in the water. She has the blood of ancient monsters in her, but that shouldn't make me any less strong, right?" this was similar but a bit different.

"It's nothing of that sort. I am a royal dragon. You are working with my dragonkin and stand equal to us as a representative on the Genesis council. You know of our attempts to learn of a large part of our history." Current had a somewhat of a stronger bond with leon due to the fact that they shared water affinity.

There was also the simple fact that Leon was not compromising when it came to becoming a better leader. He was a representative for all merfolk in Genesis. He wanted to be the next merfolk king, but now, he looked at the larger picture. The fact that he had to be stronger than any king of the merfolk ever to be able to maintain balance.

"The dominator dragons. You are still missing any evidence of where that might be. The ruins that hold your history." Leon seemed a bit downtrodden hearing this. It must be hard not to know where he came from.

The merfolk had revered the water elves since their history and the water elves helping them before they left the oceans. Not the water elves were lost in their own ways. They had been manipulated by Lust. That demon had ruined their home and burned away their history.

That left the water elves with fewer surviving records. The records that were left which told of how they helped the merfolk many years ago were gone. This was disheartening, but because the merfolk remembered, it had allowed for the water elves to more easily recover their pride.

"Why don't you take some of the water mages? I'm not talking about the elves, but the merfolk. They are more unique to the awkward currents in streams, lakes, rivers, you name it. You might be used to this continent after more years than any of us, but the merfolk water mages are more adaptable because they are younger. Use that to get information for Genesis and to find your path."

It wasn't that Leon felt bad. He wanted to see Genesis gain strength. While he was a spearman and focused on unique forms of spear arts that are deeply connected to his race. But sending mages, that could allow the mages to get stronger, information about Sigil continent water ways would be valuable, and the general bonds between dragons and merfolk may grow.

"I will take that offer. I wish to find anything related to what I need to gain the proper strength to combat threats. If it means I must adapt myself by learning from the young, then I will flow with that. Water is not stubborn. It flows together." this was something Current had said more and more.

While he had originally been the frost royal dragon to make a relationship with Walker, he had shown that it wasn't just the heroes he spent time with. Even a few people walking in the street had learned that Current was willing to speak with anyone. Willing to listen to new or old knowledge from any race.

That was the adaptability that came with water. Current was the royal water dragon. A pure water dragon that was able to control water and even make ice if necessary. Not that he made ice for any reason since he was more focused on water than ice at all.

The fact that he opened his heart and mind so easily was part of his character and the beliefs that water dragons learned. They learned through the flow of water. Water becoming clouds, water becoming storms. water running down mountains. Water becomes lakes and oceans. It was all water but it traveled everywhere and every way. Just understanding it wasn't enough. Current believed that he too had to be open to the new flows of water mana itself.

That was how he found himself walking toward the very place he knew that the grand water spirit was slumbering. Leon had to remain with those working, but Current didn't mind being alone. He understood that it was very strictly guarded since the grand water spirit had bonded with the previous sin demon title holder.

While this space had been made in to a garden kept free of anyone so that the beings living there could remain in slumber while serving a sentence for the evil that they did while under the effects of the sin title that they could not control, Current knew that there was something to be learned here.

The idea that Leon had was one he planned to take Leon up on. Current understood the lengthy process that was ahead of him though. A grand water spirit might just have the key to the knowledge that was needed so that he was able to make a change to his plans.

Upon walking past the guards, Current felt himself losing some control over water mana. The small beads of water floating around the slumbering figure was enough to show the connection to the grand water spirit. Yet, there was more to it.

The water was controlled by the grand water spirit in the peace of this separated garden. Many within genesis feared coming near since they had seen what happened when all the mana was stolen from others. The risks that came of a rampage. However, they had slowly heard the history uncovered.

They had also understood how the grand water spirit had been attracted here by a being that had greedily stolen mana for its own use. It had been a flow of odd changes that anyone that truly followed water would be interested in. to an elemental spirit, it was something to examine and understand just like their strong connection with nature.

"You are not the usual guards. You are more powerful. Your water affinity is more." The words the grand water spirit spoke were not simple. The world acted as a translator now of all languages. That benefit came some time ago, but was still considered an massive blessing to all.

" I am looking for assistance. In the new continent found, there should be ruins left by ancient dragons. Water mana more pure than anything I can currently use. I look to you for help. You understand water mana better than anything I can understand since I am not yet ready."

There were more water balls floating around before the shape for the grand water spirit showed itself. It was for only a moment, but Current could sense that out of all the grand elemental spirits, the water spirit was one that stood out as powerful and just generally different. That was the nature of, nature.

"Take one of the high water spirits with you. It was looking for a home and came to me. But it needs to explore. You will find that it is very much unique." a smaller ball of water took a somewhat humanoid form. It appeared that the high water spirit was trying to copy Current.

"Thank you very much. I hope to return and show you the next steps fo what a dragon can become." there wasn't a response, but the high water spirit attached itself to Current's back like an odd water back pack. Anyone who saw this while on their travels would wonder what the royal water dragon was doing. But those with sharper eyes, would understand.

This was just another step for a powerful dragon to be taking towards their future. Current hadn't noticed that the high water spirit was watching him. Learning about him. And would be doing its best to take everything it witnessed in.
