Chapter 1218 - 1218. Sluggish



Chapter 1218 – 1218. Sluggish

"I think you have been getting plenty strong lately. Last I heard you managed to do almost all of the healing in the cathedral last week." Gil wasn\'t joking. He had heard this from one of the nuns passing by while he walked to his archery academy. The entirety of Genesis had started to talk about those who were standing out. And Alice was one of them. 

"It\'s not enough." Alice was determined. She had helped Su improve and found ways to make her skills and songs work better. Her words would no longer give away the effects of her songs. She had shortened some in to verses that would take effect quicker. She had found multiple minstrels or other singers that traveled through the city to listen and learn. There was no effort spared in her training and gathering of knowledge. Now she needed real battle experience to refine the skills she had learned. 

"I will get stronger too. I can not allow myself to fall behind. Brother and sister will be stronger when they get back. Even if they did not fight a single monster, they will be enlightened. We all know Su will be able to block any attack from us too." The truth was plain as day. Onyx was partially driven to keep up with those he always felt were miles ahead. Even Remey and Gil saw the looks he was giving them. 

"Then we can all train together tomorrow. I know that it will be better for us to mix things up and put ourselves in uncomfortable positions. I will train early with the merfolk and try to connect the dots with the new dagger techniques and maybe learn the skills if they are compatible with my system. Then we can meet and see what we can learn together." The opportunities would not get away from Gil. He also knew that he needed to get everything settled at the archery academy if he was planning to leave and help with Onyx\'s quests. 

"Fine by me. I could use a little chaos. I will see how well I can move around with my training armor on. I don\'t think I will last long without some potions to help me recover a bit faster…" Remey had already planned on using some healing potions and salves to help. But in the early morning, she would be rushing to find better ones to heal her muscles while she trained. They were hard to make but worth it with the kind of training she was doing. 

The four affirmed their training plans and finished their meal. They would be meeting the following day after the morning. Meanwhile, Walker, Midnight, and Su had found themselves looking at something rather odd. 

\'Rattle tail snake (sluggish)

The rattle tail snake is commonly found in the dry grasses of fields or the mountains. They love to prey on small rodents and are often ignored by farmers due to the benefits they bring to the farms by hunting vermin. They were not considered native to this continent until a snake tamer brought them and lost a clutch of eggs. However, they perfectly fit in to the natural ecosystem with their mild poison. Many are found sluggish and tired when they first awaken as the season warms.\'

Midnight had found ten of them sprawled on the ground trying to slowly slither toward the grasses. It appeared that they had come out of small tunnels that had finally been unblocked as snow and ice melted. She had first through to check the area because they might be victims of other monsters. But then Walker managed to notice them moving slightly. 

"So they are just tired and need to get back in to sync with the environment? How interesting. Should we help?" Su didn\'t want to see the snakes get hurt since they were a beneficial monster to farms. Genesis would be growing plenty of crops and need such monsters. 

"I can warm up the air around here. They are cold, right? That makes anyone sluggish." The idea seemed right and after Midnight unleashed a breath of flames, Walker manipulated them to move in the air causing the entire spot to become warmer. The result was instantaneous. The rattle tail snakes started to speed up and even looked over at the odd trio before them. They had long grown accustomed to humans due to their relationship on farms. 

"Look, they are even heading the same way as us." Su felt this was a good sign for their travels ahead. 

Midnight even took the lead and pretended to be leading them to Genesis. Walker and Su did not have the heart to tell her it was the flames that burst from her mouth every so often that caused them to follow her. They needed the warmth and she had it.
