Chapter 2059. Wider Perspective
"Let's get Gil first. He should be here in a minute since the dragons already came down." Su made it clear that she wanted everyone to hear this once. That made a lot of sense to Walker since she would need to be able to show that they were all on the same page better. Since they had all been waiting for Walker and taking turns arriving to watch him, it wa easily to grasp that nothing much has happened. There had not been any major battles that had threatened the forces as they had banded together on ships. The ships had encountered a few monsters, but no storms after leaving the beaches of the Sigil continent. Furthermore, there were amazing guides in the echidna. They felt the existence of the island in question. They also knew well that there was a lot that could be done to avoid massive dangers based on weather or the flow of elemental manas. This all added up to a surprisingly safe journey. It was also why they were able to maintain focus on the large number of Genesis forces that had been brought over through all of this. The cost of mana to bring them all here was massive. This was something that every kingdom of their alliance had voted on as the maximum priority as they had received the information from the party. The information that there was a potential that the demon lord could end the world, would have made them act anyways. They all supported the war against him and his singular evil focuses. But, when it was made known that the entire world could collapse in to chaotic manas because of the choices the demon lord made, that was where all best were called off. The joint kingdoms sent almost every possible troop that they did not need to maintain peace. The threats of corrupted monsters, plants, and otherwise could be handled with the bare minimum troops that they had within their borders. While putting additional stress on their people, this was not a bad thing. It was allowing them to focus on the young regeneration left behind. They could take the lead to protect their homes while learning new things at a faster rate. It would make their entire populations stronger than they had been before when the older generation returned. The young inexperienced forces would be ready to take over in the future while the knowledge from the more experienced veterans would return to nourish the young. It was all a good thing in the long term. That was if everything succeeded as it should though. If there was a failure from the hero's war… that wasn't worth thinking about. Only stress and fear could come of it. As the royal dragons landed in front of the party, Ventus had picked up Gil from another ship. She had seemingly grabbed him without saying much so he was a little out of sorts. But he was ready to listen when he saw Walker. When he felt that the manas around Walker were different. But not in a way that he could sense. "We heard that you woke up." Mordant was the first to speak. His eyes following the odd ways that Walker's shadow moved. Normally, Mordant felt he could grasp on to the darkness mana around Walker. He could manipulate it, specifically, the shadows which had innate amounts of darkness mana. But now, that sense of control or possible control was gone. "I learned about the echidna. By meditation. Well, I learned how they view the world and why they are so advanced. They were not only born that way, but they had the ability to look at the world as just a piece and not the manas as pieces of the world." Walker made them all look at him with the same expression. They wondered what in the world they could be saying. He laughed slightly. Especially seeing that everyone thought that he was speaking foolishly. "The world is just a part of what it should be. Imagine that you focus on your body. Your mind is your mind and has all the knowledge. But without a body, you wouldn't be doing anything really? Right?" There were nods all around, and a small tsk from Ignus who thoguhtbWalker was treated them as dumb. "So, the world is just one part. One mind. The elemental planes are the rest of it. It's all one large part of all of existence. We just aren't able to see it since it's all cut off. By understanding that and realizing that manas are all cut up from true mana, then we should understand more." "It might take some time to grasp all this, but I got a skill called true mana researcher. It's basically proof that I am studying the mana that should be, not the separate manas. It also allows me a little insight. Mentioning words like class and letting me comprehend a little more about the systems we have." "Ask yourself, why were the systems activated at certain ages? Why were they focused on certain jobs or professions? Why couldn't we learn skills outside that? Why are we limited so much but after the world started to return closer and closer to the proper flow, did the age limit for getting a system disappear?"
"Why did the system's start to advance to different systems. Like brawler to alchemical brawler…" Remey realized that she was an example of how the system had changed for her and she could do more. It made no sense if the systems were to be thought about as some solid things. 'The system is the system. It allows all of existence to see more and organize themselves. The world is just part of that and had to work without the rest of its parts. So, it was doing what it could while limited." Walker spoke with more pride and determination than before. He felt like he had peered in to an abyss of problems only to return with the solutions that had been scratching the sides of his mind for years. "You're saying that we are limited because the world is, limited. That the world's will is just a portion of the greater picture. We must examined our perceptions of what we think that we know?" Rise was raising her eyebrows at this. She had been wondering what the light elemental plane would be like, but she also felt that she had been missing a portion of what she needed to know if she desired to go there. "Purer manas were left to the elemental planes and corrupted mana between them and us. You said that. So, we can just fix that, right?" Gil was focused on solving the overall problem instead. He felt it was the better focus to have. "Does that mean all the world prompts from the systems were just it saying that we are working the right way? That everything it said was rewarding us for achieving what it needs to achieve to become whole?" Su felt that they had actually been doing more than a hero's work. "Hero for the world too. That's what we are." Onyx nearly whispered this out to everyone. It was a heavy sentence. It came with a lot more than just some pressure after all. "We can save it too." Midnight broke all their thoughts when she spoke up. From her perspective, they had already been working on helping the world too. No one just thought of it this way. They remained focused on the people. Not the entire world as one being. "We are. We are helping the will of the world and the world as a whole. When it all comes together, we might have classes. Basically, my master of none and jack of all trade system, will just be a class. Like a job. A mage could learn skills for survival, but focus on magic. Things like that. It would be different, but everyone would have more ability to learn more. To be what they wanted to be." Walker felt his body filled with energy. 'The world approves.' ???s ??????? ?s ?????? ??

There was a single announcement between all of them after Walker had spoken. It made a lot of sense. "And we also get fewer quests. I have barely looked at the system I have since all the skills have become smoother. It's more of a part of me now." Remey also brought up an important point. As the flow of nature and the world had improved, they had seen less and less of the systems showing quests or information. Not because it didn't need to, but because they had been changing more than what they had realized. "So before we get to this place of battle, we will need to change our perspectives more. I will do that." Current took the lead and leaped in to the waters to swim underneath the ships. He was going to work on his own perception of the world. The others sense that this was right. It quickly left Walker standing alone again. Only Alice by his side looking at him expectantly. "I guess you and I will have some time to spend with one another. Feel like a meal?" Walker smiled softly as Alice nodded in agreement to his idea. …
