Chapter 2286: 2286. Wilderness Explorers
"You just got back from those islands and you want to go out again?" Remey was sure that Su was acting a little crazy with this. She deserves a break after working away from Genesis, but instead, Su was saying that she was going back out again.
"I know it sounds like I am trying to work myself to death, but if I go out I can find more to help Genesis. Midnight has never needed me in the sense of an actual draconic guardian. It is very different from the times the dragons needed their guardians and champions to battle against another village. Even the royal dragons have mentioned that."
"I should take advantage of that reality and make sure that I am pushing forward the entirety of the alliance as much as possible." From the way that Su spoke, Remey knew that the small break for snacks and tea was proving to be more of a conversation about the future. Not that this was a bad thing.
"The world expanded and a lot of things are changing. The routes between the different kingdoms are also rougher because they need to be built. If I go out with the exploratory groups, then I will be able to make a larger impact on all of it. Safer travel, more trade goods, and even more information sharing since we will be able to keep building the magic tower expansions."
Su was making a lot of good points. But watching Su leave would be hard for everyone. Especially Remey since Su was able to easily snap her out of her hyper focus to take breaks. Just today Remey had been able to focus in on a task related to the new herbs brought by Su and Walker recently. Yet, she hadn't stopped for the entire day and remained focused until Su broke her out of that flow to eat and drink something.
"It will also bring in plenty of new herbs. I have already heard that entire new forests, cave systems, and places that look like ruins but might not be are being found." Since Su was pushing so hard, Remey was ready just to accept it, but something caught her attention. "Ruins that aren't ruins?" That was weird to her. To be fair, it was very weird to all of the representatives on the Genesis council who had heard it. However, it was not something they had more information about. No one had been able to easily spot and begin to explore the areas which were seen from high above the ground by exploring harpies.
"Yes, you missed that meeting, but it was more of a report about the exploration of wilderness between the kingdoms. It's far from being completed and plenty of dragons and harpies are working on it. The map makers that went with them have also found that they can't even record certain areas due to the way that manas are gathered there."
Su was suddenly a lot more energetic. So much so that Remey realized there was more than just a desire to help Genesis. Instead, it was a desire to roam and freely explore. Something that dragons would surely relate to since they had the desires to fly freely in the open sky or travel through endless caves.
Regardless of the type of dragon, they would revel in their element and feel at home. Right now, it appeared that Su was feeling the very same thing as a half dragon. Not to mention that most of her life had been spent helping her ill mother and always working father. Once those issues had been solved, she had dedicated to becoming an adventurer.
"If it's a water and wind mix of mana making that mist, then you might need to wear clothing that blocks out the mist from calling you while travelling. And those monsters might not have attacked yet, but they have the potential. You will have to have strong allies to explore that area."
Su nodded, "My thoughts exactly. The world changed a lot so the stronger demi-humans have been pushing to join the adventurers' guild causing a great stir in the rankings made as the kingdoms were more united. Basically, they are all striving to get stronger so they can make more money and leave a legendary mark. Partially our fault."
Remey sighed. She had heard this before. Their party had made a big mark on things, rightfully so. Regardless, this inspired a lot of groups to get together and push to make the same marks. Especially when it came to those who were lower in class and needed money
more.
"So you will be making a good group to work under you. Maybe ask Barry for help? I heard he brought a lot of promising students from the Sigil continent recently." Reney had heard that rumor while she collected some materials from a delivery. Barry had been away from some time because of this. So if he was back it was best to take advantage.
"Good idea. He would be very helpful since I heard he is taking a month long break. He might even want to come with me." If Barry went with Su, it could be even better. He was incredibly strong and would be a great body guard. Remey immediately began pushing this idea toward Su as they started to talk more in depth about other small discoveries in the wilderness
nearby.
