Chapter 2667: Chapter 2667

"They can use decay to heal too." Remey didn't say this out of surprise, it was just a general fact. She was just making sure that the idea itself was said out loud since it was something that anyone else would cite as very odd.

There was also the fact that Alice and Su would be the ones who were most focussed on the forms of healing that the obsidian slime race were capable of. Especially since there were many back in Genesis focusing on the fact that there were either forms of elemental healing other than light or life mana based healing.

"They are the ones that use the decaying dark mana in just about everything. They seem to be a race entirely focused on the magical aspect of dark mana and how it works in nature. I have a feeling they can travel the world without much issue." With the way that Gil was taking this, he felt that the obsidian slime race could easily visit Genesis without losing too much or being too much at risk.

"I agree with that, their bodies are made of dark mana primarily and their cores are protected by the slime that makes up their bodies. They need nutrients from dark affinity plants but that's not bad. They can easily replenish it with lower quality herbs or less dense foods with star mana within it." Walker had also been studying these possibilities mentally.

The idea that they would be able to safely transport a dormant obsidian slime race member and help them awaken again was also on his mind. That would mean they could bring a larger number of obsidian slime race members to Genesis to meet and to share culture than what would be possible for many other races.

That would also mean that they could be more easily protected by others while they made their way to the world or even other elemental planes. Walker found himself sitting next to the resting cleric of decay and asked clearly. "Does your race travel through the other elemental planes and would you want to visit the world?"

The cleric looked over and seemed that they were ready for such a question. Like the true dark sage had been ready to ask of them to visit the world at some point already. "Yes, we can travel to other elemental planes but our bodies degrade and we fall dormant very easily. We would prefer to be close or within our dark elemental territory at all times."

The idea that the obsidian slime race felt the same ways as any slime didn't made any negative sounding consequences. Of course they would feel informative to be out of their elemental affinity and that their slime body would degrade. That was just the nature of the purer side of the elemental lanes. They were not there to mix, they remained balanced and properly separated because that was just the way that the balance was maintained.

"We would hope that when the ambassadors from Genesis arrive within the dark elemental plane that there would be a group of your people who wish to travel to Genesis. They do not need to be focused on decay or on anything in particular. Just to ensure that we can form a proper bond and also share our cultures. The world has all manas balanced everywhere. We do have some territories and lands where some elemental manas are denser through."

Walker felt that there were a lot of chances for this race and the other races within Genesis to bind. Especially when it came to the echidna race who put a massive focus on natural mana and the natural balance of the world.

They would be able to understand the ways that the obsidian slime race focused on the natural balance that came with the decaying dark mana. How they would focus on that decay and how it would both break apart aspects of existence and then allow for new aspects to be born. The idea was not simple but it was easy to grasp a piece of it and see the benefits. To be honest, Walker even contemplated pushing them toward the farmers since the farmers required such things to bring crops to a better and stronger form for the people.

"When the group of emissaries reach your home, please tell them that Walker and the party are ready for them to guide some of your people back. I can tell that we won't be staying within the dark elemental plane that long. The true dark sage is already here to lead us ahead." Walker looked up and the rest of the party did as well.

"Too soon!" Midnight was a little annoyed that they had shown up, been guided, and then had to face a monster where they all couldn't actually fight it. Instead, they were now being led away and couldn't learn more about the obsidian slime race. She also had it in her head that they might be able to help her improve her skills.

The shadow wrapping skill was one that she used for stealth and was a hallmark for her. She would use it every so often to get sneak attacks or to scout, it was one of the skills she had learned easily and utilized enough that no other had reached the same level of understanding. While she could use other manas, the effects were not stealth and worked differently.

"You have another race to meet on our way. You must still make it to the earth elemental plane I believe and the true earth sage is waiting for me to pass you to them." The true dark sage spoke, breaking away some of the attention that the party had divided in to the obsidian slime race members who were looking much healthier now that the party had assisted them in resisting and recovering a lot of dark mana.

"You mean that we have to meet the true earth sage too right away? What is wrong there?" Su didn't mince words. It would be all well and good to meet another race that lived within the dark elemental planes but also focusing on the fact that the true earth sage was positing meant something had to be wrong. That was just the trend of things since they arrived within the elemental planes.

"There is a small matter of seeds that the true earth sage wishes to ask of you. Apparently some extinct herbs may be in your care and he wishes to trade with you personally." Now this caught Remey's attention very much. She was about to leap back up and ask for information before Walker gave her a shake of the head. If they got too in to this right now then they would not know about the race that they would need to meet.

"I hope that we can make that trade after we have met this race you wish us to meet. If you are bringing us to them then I assume they have a special reason to be within your scope of focus?" Adding in this little bit, Walker saw the true dark sage nodding. It seemed that the true dark sage was acting very humble, something to show respect since the party was assisting without argument or questioning. They were just ready to help in the places that were needed and it was more than fair to offer more for it. A very amicable way to go about things that was earning even more respect.

"There is a race of small lizards, they are not what you would call a race if you did not know of their very high intelligence. They also have a habit of rushing off and making shadow golems that are a bit mischievous since they have nothing much else to do. They do not maintain the balance but they are excellent at handling rogue monsters or border breaks since they enjoy creating battle strategies."

Now that was something different and unique that made everyone wonder what would come of it. "How small are they?" Onyx made it clear that he was curious about them. The intelligence that these small lizards might have would be important if they formed an alliance with Genesis, but they were another race with scales and Onyx was more inclined to befriend them.

"The ink lizards are smaller than a finger, but they can speak loudly. They can create much more than you may imagine. They are one of the stronger races and the most solitary at times. Often, they are considered a race that no other race would even encounter unless they wished to be encountered." The true dark sage appeared to wish for them to meet them more so now than before. A good sign.
