Chapter 1883 1883. For Future Life



There was a surge of mana. Not just one kind of mana, but all the manas that Walker could sense. He had been able to feel the increased density of mana all around him since they got to the island. But this was on another level. 

All of the mist had disappeared, meaning that every skill that the echidna elder used had been taken back. That he was fully focusing his mana and any mana gathered within the altar on this very task. 

However, the others of the village readily gave over some mana. Even Walker sensed that this was the right move to make. He easily sent over some natural mana that he had gathered, but he felt that he was just adding a small drop to the bucket by comparison. 

The next thing that everyone knew, the entire island had started to shake as the elder started to be encased in a massive white mist. But it wasn\'t anything normal. This mist seemed to penetrate the ground causing the elder\'s body to evaporate with the mist. The shaking and rumbling of the earth elbow the island just shook more and more. 

Everyone felt the island moving. "He broke the supports below the island!" Current realized what was going on. The elder echidna had just forced the island to break away completely. 

The island was as good as gone if this did not work. It would sink below the depths of the salt water. It would be the end of the echidna race completely. Yet, there was not a single bit of stress within the air. Not a single echidna doubted that the elder was doing the best for the people. That they would somehow be safe and sound after this. 

While the mist seemed to disappear along with the elder, the intensity of the mana around the island only grew. It was the very will of the elder and the world seemingly coming together. A true unification of someone who had managed to follow the path before them to completion. Someone that had truly understood what they had been asked to do. 

While the movements of the island caused many to become unsteady, the echidna were still silent and sending additional mana that they could spare forward. The altar glowed with runes before it slowly started to evaporate in to mist as well. 

The ancient altar created by their ancestors was disappearing. It brought tears to some eyes of the older echidna. The feeling of losing something precious. However, they clearly understood that this was just a step on the road to the future they need to take. 

The party just watched with awe as all of this happened. They felt the harder rumble of earth and the massive shake of the island as it came to a sudden halt. It had been dramatic in a way. The changing of the mana around them, the feeling of an entire island being moved by mana that they could not understand. 

"May you find your paths…" the single soft voice of the elder echoes through the jungle. It was a farewell of sorts. 

"The elder just gave his life to move this island to safety. He didn\'t even need my help to do it…" Walker spoke at barely a loud enough voice to be heard by the party. It was more of something he was telling himself to make himself believe it had actually happened. He wasn\'t sure how the elder could have done something like this. 

It didn\'t make sense that the elder could do something like move an entire island to the shore of Sigil. It would require a unique system and much more. Yet, it had happened and taken the rest of his life as a cost. But was that really all? Had the elder really been stuck with one system? 

That was the thought that stuck in Walker\'s head. He had felt that things were different on the island. That the echidna had somehow managed to break through some invisible wall that Walker couldn\'t fully understand or see. They had definitely gone beyond what the current understanding of having a system or the world was. It was frustrating not to understand it yet. 

\'Quest- the lost race- completed 

The beginning discoveries of a lost history have been found. The dragon related lost race that fled their home for generations are finally being discovered. What evidence and proof of their current or past existence will be found?

Requirement: discover as much about the ancient race as possible.

Reward: 50000 exp., 100 heroic points, unique title.

The lost race, echidna has been discovered and ensured a future on the Sigil continent. 

The title, friend of the echidna has been gained. 

Friend of the echidna

Due to the close relationship with the echidna and their unique existence in the world, the holder of this title will be naturally closer with them. They will have a better relationship with every echidna while also being able to grasp certain concepts and learn more from them more easily.\'I think you should take a look at

Walker drew in a sharp breath. The quest finally became completed as soon as there was a suritty that the echidna would survive. Furthermore, there was the title that made them all a friend to the echidna. But Walker felt this was undeserved since they had not done much. 

\'The echidna race has returned to the world properly. The world will begin issuing more quests related to the flow of mana.\'

A single announcement went through the world. There had been many world announcements like this that the party had some hand in. It also was a major event since another race had been discovered and added to the long list of intelligent races. Especially since there were monster races that had already joined that list too. 

The flow of experience and heroic points hit the party quickly. They could feel themselves stronger than before due to the level ups. But this was still just pushed to the side. There was movement from the echidna around them. 

"The elder has moved on in life and death toward their great path."

"I shall take the lead as the elder wished and as the path guides."

"Join hands with those that wish to join the true flow of all things." 

The dual seer came to the center where the altar had been. They had become the new leader of the village. It was as if this was planned in some way. As if all the echidna felt this was the way of things. 

"Heroes, we will join you in ways that you might not understand. We have our quests and our purpose. Please look forward to the days our paths cross again." 

Walker couldn\'t even respond before a large mist covered everything around them. The echidna disappeared from in front of them. Only a few remaining that had clearly started walking off toward the Sigil continent. Even the monsters and monster eggs that Mordant and Current had gathered were mysteriously gone and returned to where they should be. 

The odd way that things had changed left the party completely unsure of what was happening. "So, I think that the systems we have are different from theirs. I think that the world got stuck for some reason and we are seeing things change." Su was the first to speak up and break the silence around them. 

"I would say you\'re right there. I heard them say things that didn\'t make sense while I asked questions or they taught me some things." Gil was racking his brain for a better answer but was stuck on it too. 

"Sister and I heard the children say things about their system. We watched them use manas that were not specific to one system." Onyx spoke up with a clear agreement from Midnight beside him. 

"This is what we believed as well. They say the flow of mana. I say that they are talking about something that could influence how everything exists here." Current\'s opinion was similar but even grander than just systems and the world. He meant everything. 

"They understood mana. Not natural mana or just elemental mana. Mana. the real source of mana and how mana was everything and nothing. I can still learn a lot more still to catch up to them, but they were able to choose their paths. It means that we might be living an older lifestyle. But I think that\'s fine. We will keep pushing ahead." Walker spoke with heavy confidence. He could feel that the world agreed with him. The mana seemed to pulse ever so slightly around him and his words. 

There was plenty that everyone wanted to say. However, they found themselves caught up by something they saw in the distant sky. Something that they knew they shouldn\'t see.
