? "If you bring them in to this they will have forces within the empire." The Rize archangel was sure that Genesis was telling him that they were already taking the side of the Fel empire.
"Why would you turn them away? They could be of help and you are not at war. Not to mention the fact that you will be invited to bring more light mages to their desert to help with undead. It just makes sense. The Fel empire has unique mages that can trap powerful wyverns so that we have a chance to get things straight. And you have powerful light mages that can stop the undead. Both of you need each other. Do you really believe that opposites exist to fight one another? Or do they exist to complement and complete one another?"
Walker's words sounded like he had been alive much longer. However, it was because he was young that he had learned this lesson. Besides the fact that he had many opportunities and experiences that the others had not had, Walker was able to imagine differently because of his age.
The young always were the ones that would try things differently. Even when they often would fail, the young made those failures constantly to find ways to get what they wanted. Therefore, it made sense that Walker would see the world differently. A world that was better united because every difference was something that was intentionally there to complement the other.
"You already have plans to let them bring their light mages and other soldiers with light affinity n to your desert. Across the lands that we have valuable research ongoing that can not be moved under any circumstance?" The Fel empire archangel took their turn to shake their head. But the archangels were both on the same page. They were both stubborn but also had hard why Walker wanted this.
"Then I guess Genesis will no longer be helping. We can handle the issues of the undead and wyverns after they take more control. The three demons we search for might make them their army before that anyways." Walker knew this would be the worst case. If the demon king had wyverns and undead at his command.
"EWe will not let such a thing happen. The lives lost and the facilities destroyed would be something neither of us would survive. I will not allow you to recall on your agreement so easily." The Rize empire archangel showed his distaste. His clear anger and distaste. It was the first time that Walker had broken through the shell kept up to keep emotions in check by the angels that had been trained so carefully to be logical and calm.
"You think we would just sit by the side as our people were turned in to mindless undead? Rotting corpses that were used as pawns without any desires. Research would be lost. Growth that could be achieved in any field of research lost. It would be a loss for the entire world and all people!" The Fel empire archangel broke as well. He showed his true feelings.
"So research at your core, could you accept the Rize empire archangel and his belief that he cares for his people over the values of an elemental cycle? Or would you rather toss aside all the lives and research they have done with their own beliefs? Angels are one race, not multiple. Regardless of your beliefs, you should stand as a race united." Walker looked like a king that had just played a trump card in their game of war. He was smiling softly while every dragon and party member behind them raised their heads slightly higher.
"They will be allowed to bring five of their best whaling mages. I expect them to be the best of their crop of researchers or whatever their terms. But I will not allow them to bring any other. No map makers, no scouts, and especially no combat oriented mages that could assassinate anyone if they escaped." The Rize archangel was gritting his teeth. He was very unhappy that he had broken his calm attitude but even more unhappy that he was faced with logic.
"That means you will only send five as well. Of the best holy light mages you have. They will only be able to come if they are monitored by us at every single turn. If they harm our research then they will forfeit their rights. They will be locked away in prisons for the remainder of their lives along with whoever helped them cause trouble." The Fel empire archangel also showed that he was able to negotiate here.
"Ten, from both. That will be the start. Five will be too few. The wyverns are massive compared to the size of an angel. There will be many hurt and the more healers we have working under Alice and Su, the better. They are our best when it comes to healing methods and how healers should act. Alice will handle anyone that steps out of line. Her partner Horizon, the grand light elemental spirit could cease their grasp on certain elemental manas. Or boost Alice's."
Walker didn't say what Su could do. They had already felt her strength but Alice having the power to stop mana to a degree or boost hers was a deterrent for both the Rize and Fel empires. "And she will remain in charge of light mages when they come to the Fel empire. That way you can be sure that she is able to hold both accountable."
There was also the fact that Walker had chosen Alice because she was a healer. Having a healer that was seen as weak, take control, and show off power was a shocking thing to anyone. That would show that the entirety of Genesis was stronger than the two angels believed. Furthermore, it would highlight the fact that Walker was giving them a fair chance. They could heal with them or they could be punished by them. A firm line that was accepted more easily than just letting the empires clash.
"Accepted." The two agreed and began to write up the agreement there and then. It would allow for proof if anything was broken in the agreement so that they could get justice against it.
"Now that you have all shown off your strength and been tested a little, can we prepare to leave? I want to solve the problems that may threaten my children sooner than later. It would be better that they do not handle wyverns in the time that we waste here. I sent them to learn for a reason. Not to be sitting prey for lesser beings." Ventus exerted some force causing the air to move slightly around her. She was done with being patient here.
"You are very right. I am also tired of waiting. I would like to make progress. The talking had all been out of respect for what walker had given us. He may have welcomed us in to Genesis but he is not our controller. Each royal dragon has our own power to move." Current even reinforced this. But they all knew that keeping the wyverns away from them to deal with the wyvern queen was advantageous to them.
"We will have our preparations within one day. You and your forces may leave when you desire. We can meet at the locations already agreed upon. But there are important sets of reading that should be done about the young wyverns that can not fly." The Rize archangel was a little pushed off because of the strength that Ventus and Current showed. Yet, this was the best move to progress past the fact that they had just been angry.
"We can have our mages here in less than a day. We have kept many prepared for whatever was to happen since these meetings began. We are not going to risk anything that we do not need to." The Fel archangel was more confident but that was all due to planning. It was very clear that he was certain why would be able to remain safe during the travel but not during the battle as seen in how he acted before.
"Good, we will leave in three hours. That would work for everyone. Alice and Su will be waiting for your mages to catch up and then we will divide you in to your healing groups. If you send life mages, which I expect, then I will speak with them a little." Walker was sure that there would be some powerful life mages. To him that meant he could learn a lot more. But also the fact that they might have more knowledge about what life was and how he might be able to grasp that in his meditation.
