Chapter 1960 1960. Greater Adventures

"I take it that you found a little more than what you are letting on?" Walker could tell that Ventus was holding a few things back. But that didn't mean that he was going to just jump right in to following her lead and listening to her stories. He was enjoying the view from the air where a few more of the younger citizens had begun racing again.

"I did find some interesting things. Especially about the monsters nearby the ruins that i was hunting." Ventus smiled seeing that Walker didn't want to move from the air. She too enjoyed the view from where she was. It reminded her when her children were younger. She could only find herself hoping that they would remain safe and sound guarding the demon villages for the time being.

"We were a little bored and Midnight was annoyed that I hadn't come to see what she was doing lately. So, instead of her worrying about the hatchlings that seem to be more and more every day, she and I started a little training race. Go figure, it became all of this." Walker's explanation was enough for Ventus to grasp the feelings that they had over such a situation.

"Well, I see that you attracted more than just a few of the young. I can tell that a few more came along to add to the fun." Seeing that Scylla had drifted off to give some advice and scout out talents, Ventus understood that there was a lot more happening than what she had first seen.

The fact that they were all preparing for a battle against the demon lord and a literal floating city was enough to explain why Scylla was so animated when she spoke to the many that could still fly even when Ventus arrived. Furthermore, there was the added fact that a few of those were very young. They needed the right guidance to be able to grow strong enough to protect Genesis in the future. Regardless of the current standing of this alliance.

"I take it that you discovered a few corrupted monsters?" Walker moved the conversation towards what he had believed that Ventus had discovered. Why else would she have brought focus to the monsters that she had encountered. It just made sense.

"On the contrary." this immediate response brought surprise to Walker's eyes. That's exactly what Ventus expected. She gave a slight laugh before proceeding with even more details.

"I found a species of bat. They are called cloud bats. The ruins were in a particular location that collapsed over time. This allowed only a small space for the bats to enter and absorb some ambient wind mana left behind."

"When I found them, they did not fear me at all. They had adapted to the dense wind mana that a dragon surrounded themselves with, therefore, i invited them here. About five hundred are currently flying in the clouds waiting for my permission to come and enjoy this place as well."

"Wait… what?" Walker was unsure if Ventus was serious. Five hundred cloud bats were just casually brought over from the Sigil continent.

"I know, they couldn't use the teleportation rune formations so they had to come in the air currents with me. We lost about thirty of the weak and old on the journey. But that is nature and that is just the fate of those in time." Since Ventus just kept talking like this was normal, Walker could only feel even more defeated.

"But five hundred monsters here is too many. How will we handle them here? Especially if they aren't as intelligent or able to become a monster race?" Walker knew that it could be some detail he was missing or another aspect that was lost on him. Maybe they were more intelligent than he knew. Maybe they could become a monster race soon?

"They are here to live alongside my wind dragons. They will be part of my village. Terron is already moving towards us and waiting to speak with me. My voice was carried by the wind that I would like his help making a space for them to live within the ground in my own wind dragon village." Walker felt even more defeated. Ventus could even send messages nearby with the wind which demonstrated her much higher control now.

"I still don't think-"

"Because they are peaceful creatures that only need the clouds and the wind to live, we should be able to use them well. They can maintain the skies as watchers. They can warn us of monsters migrating or anything else happening that the average person on land will miss. They also like eating insect monsters. They may help farmers for free."

With a sigh, Walker just nodded along. He was sure that he had lost this battle before he even knew he was fighting it. "There were a few that had appeared to be unsettled. Their fluffy fir turning red instead of white. But when they returned to the ruins where purer wind mana was, they lost that. I believe they had some corrupted mana in their bodies. Dense mana may counter it if it is too little corrupted mana."

Now this was what Walker somewhat expected. A reason that Ventus took note of monsters in the first place. If they had not been some form of corrupted monster, then it would have made more sense that there was an issue in the way that the monsters were acting. And acting as potentially corrupted before purified definitely met those standards.

"So you think that if we can keep the mana density higher, we can deter the corrupted mana even more. I agree. We have some instances where we tested this. But the corrupted mana is also part of existence. It's not really corrupted. It is just mana without guidance. Or at least that's how I explain it."

"All that mana is out between the elemental planes and here. It is also outside of what we even know of the world and those elemental planes. So, I expect that it serves a purpose that I can't grasp. For now, the corrupted monsters can't be saved. But if it is caught fast enough, we can manage. You proved that so the theories can be applied more so than before."

With Walker's backing, Ventus would be able to share this with others and smooth out a few things making people hesitate. The corrupted plants, herbs, mana, and otherwise, were causing a lot of stress right now for the average person. Let alone the leaders of Genesis.

"Then I am not telling you anything you don't know already. That means we can rest a little easier. That the corrupted mana is meant to be, it is just a little lost." Ventus looked at it in a new light. But the way that she saw the world was different. Even from the other dragons. She had learned her values in a different way along with changed her ways to make them more open and upright.

"Otherwise, how was the wind dominator dragon knowledge? Was it all intact?" Walker did worry that some ruins might have been broken or damaged as time had gone on. Especially since nature was still shifting over time.

"It was clear as it could be. A gust of wind turning on itself that only a dragoon of my strength could have called on. A very interesting way to create knowledge. But there were some important records left behind on stone. They were cut using draconic runes with wind. I expected it to be destroyed, but I learned that the past wind dragons used to remain in the sky and never land. Traveling grand wind currents that caused storms over the entire world."

"You mean that wind dragon used to travel beyond continents?" Walker was impressed. The wind dragons and the dragon race had been weakened significantly over the generations.

"You are correct. The strength I will reclaim for the wind dragons and the dragon race is a lot to live up to. I expect a lot of help." Ventus hummed a little after she said this. She could see that Walker was more than willing to offer a helping hand to all of them. She believed that even just as a human, Walker would have offered help. Without a single title, he would have done so.

"Then I look forward to the other places you discover when you are able to fly over the oceans easily." Walker was actually somewhat excited to think of what else might be out there. The Sigil continents and their home on Genesis alliance territory might be just small pieces of the greater world. The world could be full of more mystery and adventure than he could even imagine.
