Chapter 2099. Sleep And Rest
The explanations of how Genesis projects were moving forward brought everyone through the night. Walker and the others wanted to rest, but they could manage. Walker himself felt that the fatigue was greater than what he had been used to, but that didn't mean he didn't have the strong mind to handle it. While his body had lost a lot of the strength he had possessed, his mind was still sharp. Eh easily resisted the desire to take a break and rest. Instead, he pushed forward on many of the proposed plans to expand Genesis and to set up more roads to smaller towns and even to bring the dragon territories up to a better state of building to help them meld better with the rest of Genesis. This surprised many who expected him to be unable to handle things right now. They didn't doubt him, but expected that he would need the chance to rest so that he could get back to hus prime. What they had missed though, was that when Walker explained the new race that he was, the origin race, that he was also partially feeding off of manas now. His body had accepted the aspects of dragon toughness and odd abyssal serpent mana consumption. Beyond that, the additions of natural mana and the more mysterious manas had allowed him to step in to a better standing of life in general. Things had only grown when he used his own life mana to spur a rebirth on the ocean. While he had become weaker due to using a mastery skill, he still felt the same spark of life energy burning brightly. He had a better potential than he had ever had before he had done all that. Therefore, he was riding on that feeling. Enjoying the fact that he would definitely be more powerful than he had been before he had regressed in strength. However, things could not keep going forever. Many other matters needed to be handled by the representatives of the races. The vampires needed to fit themselves in to a place where they could keep recovering and learning about the world. They had missed so much and even more on top of that when Genesis appeared. This was a massive hole that needed to be filled. History aside, they had to learn how the other races worked. What they were about. What their cultures were. The vampire culture would radically change as they learned more and more about the others. They could not maintain the culture that they had before. The many generations of fighting amongst themselves for power could not remain. Even with their unique species being dominated by the more potent bloodline, they could not focus on that. They had to remain strong in the sense that they had a unity of species. Not something that divided them. This was what they saw while seeing the demi-humans. So many tribes worked together to become a clear race. A clear kingdom. They worked despite their differences and maintained similar values. All things that they did better than the vampires even when the vampires were considered the top of the food chain in a way. That was pretty much the end all be all of where the vampires had begun to channel their focus. Remove the ill will between one another. Especially the memories of fighting in the past. They had to drop those aside so that they could move forward. This understandably went in an expected yet unexpected direction. Especially since Scylla became involved. She pushed the vampires to go to the coliseum. They could fight through their differences once and for all. After that, they would be forcefully bound to the laws of Genesis. No longer able to take any issue with what had happened in the past. While some people would think this brutish, it was a good way. Especially since this would show off that there were many ways to handle things within Genesis. They were not a one sided alliance that forced laws and conformity. They could be flexible in the ways that people wished to live and to grow. The angels also somewhat liked this since many held animosity toward their fellow angels. The disputes with them had not been missed. The guards had needed to handle some of the two different empire angels fighting here and there. Not that it had managed to last. That was another good thing that Walker and the party had learned very quickly. The guards had grown significantly. Especially while the majority of the Genesis forces were away. It wasn't that the guards had been out fighting monsters and managing their levels to grow higher. Instead, they had become smarter. New methods to apprehend law breakers. New ways to use runes and other creations to be able to halt someone in their tracks. Especially when it came to fights. Chains and ropes with unique materials along with runes to stop manas from flowing properly, were a major creation. The blacksmiths from the crafting guild and the rune carvers had worked very closely together for this. The moment that they had succeeded, they had made their way to the guards. Testing had taken place for only a week before they had a working item. Now with the changes within the world, they had become much better. They could almost entirely block out mana since the runes had developed even more. "You two are heading to the elven district, right? You need to let the elves know what's going on?" Remey saw that Gila and Alma were somewhat distracted. "No, we are going to the mansion. Everyone is eating together right?" Gil was sure that Remey was just messing with him at this point. "Then we will need a bigger table since I think everyone will be coming at that point." Remey gestured behind her. Everyone from the meeting was trailing behind. Speaking more relaxed than before. Especially those that had been on edge due to some of the more stressful plans for the future. Many of the assistants that had been waiting had taken their writings or words from them to head to their other attendants. It would allow them to communicate while they joined in the festivities. "I think you all should understand that the entire city is celebrating. The dragons haven't been roaring from time to time because they are fighting. They are praising their ancestors." Su shook her head at the pair while they kept annoying one another. Gil and Renmey had a knack for being troublesome that would always seem to exist. "I heard that my mother's restaurant sold out of food and couldn't even get more in." Walker smirked a little thinking about how far his family had come since they lived in the human city. No, lived in a smaller home where they had wished for more space. So much had changed so quickly. It felt like a blink of an eye. "Brother, we should move faster. We will miss the chance to enjoy the garden before eating." Onyx's excitement came with the simple desire to enjoy what the garden had become when they were away. He had a few favorite spots to rest and wanted to make sure that they were still there even with the garden growing more. "The fireplace." Midnight's immediate response was to make sure that Onyx knew where she would be napping later. "If we even make it to a bed tonight, then I will be surprised." Walker laughed. He was sure that they would all fall asleep in the chairs at the table or even just standing up. They had gone through so much paperwork. They had been too focused that mentally they would need to sleep more. "You should sleep earlier." Alice's worried expression made Walker smile softly. But he had no intention of missing the fun. He had not sat down for a proper meal with everyone. None of them had done so for a while. This would be a family meal, but also a meal for all of them to share a moment with those that had gathered under their shared values. 'Peaceful quest
Requirement: rest well and enjoy the world as it should be.
Reward: none'
Walker smiled even more when he saw that the world was sending them this quest. He felt that it was the best one they had ever received. "You got it too?" looking over at Walker, Gil held up a fist. Walker met it with his own fist and nodded. "It looks like the world gave us another quest. Time for us to have a banquet!" Walker gave a shout before dashing ahead of everyone while holding Alice's hand.. The two rushed back to the mansion with everyone else in tow. It was time to eat!
