Master Of None Chapter 276

Gil stood himself and sat behind Remey leaning his back up against her, "Give that old alchemist a run for his money now alright?" He was still stunned by the change within his own system but it was plain to see just how greatly this affected Remey.
Midnight was even taking notice and stuck her head near Remey's lap. While Walker started to stand Remey was able to calm herself again. Her blurry eyes glanced at Midnight and Onyx. "Walker...I will find the ingredients to that potion we talked about before...it might take a year or two but I will make it as may times as we need."
This caught Walker off guard again, it was true he had been angry with Remey when she hadn't told him about potions that could increase the strength of a dragon or serpents scales. But he had been able to move away from it knowing that Remey had not spoken of it since pursuing it would take them far from their party goals. "I would appreciate that, But take your time, our adventures won't be ending any time soon. I won't hold anything like that against you…" Walker was having a hard time looking Remey in her eyes.
It was clear as day that this had been eating at her silently. She thought that she had let them down and now with such an amazing thing happening it gave her the power to make up for it with her own two hands. Walker may be unable to prevent her from doing this but with her new personal goal established he could tell she would be stronger than ever.
Su calmed Remey down significantly while looking at everything around her in awe. "I just didn't realize how much I was missing. I can tell by the way your jaw clenches when you will take a step with your right foot. The tiny muscle movements are amazing." Su was watching Walker stand and walk to them, she had already picked up on the different muscle twitches connecting to each other.
"I think the best way to describe how i feel now is that I have a flame burning in my chest. There is mana being pulled directly through my heart and flowing in my body. I wonder how many wind elemental arrows I can let fly now…" The two were having these new sensations while Midnight had moved on to flexing her wings.

She was able to extend them just slightly farther, and when she gave a soft flap it looked to create more wind beneath her. "Midnight, if I were to guess you would be flying around in a month or so. By the time we return from the deep sun hollow forest you might be an expert in the sky like Stella." The encouragement was not missed and Midnight nearly tackled Walker in glee.
Onyx was still seated with Alice, he had been catching her and the High priest up on the specifics to a small degree so they could understand all the things that had just happened at one. The two of them were looking at the party like they were completely different people.
"You kids really are put to give all of us old folks a heart attack. You might just send the king for a ride too." The high priest was still unsure of everything but he had recovered enough of his mentality to joke around.
Alice stood up and reached out a finger hesitantly poking Walker in the face. "Hey, Alice I am still me. My system stayed the same I just have an upgraded title." He tried to poke her back but she swiftly dodged his slow attack. Onyx took the opportunity to slither up to Walker's shoulders and get comfortable. "Onyx I swear you got heavier. You are level nine now, and I am pretty sure you will have a growth spurt coming so relish this while you can." Onyx tightend himself a bit in protest.
Alice switched her target and poked Onyx who joined in the small battle with the end of his tail. He was moving faster than Walker but still letting Alice dodge the attacks.
Loud footsteps started to resound outside the door to the high priests quarters. BANG!!! The door flew open presenting the old man was standing there sweating with an empty bag in his hands. "I'm out of potions but when I woke up they to-..." He looked at them surrounding Remey who had obviously been crying. "Who do I force to drink purple toad poison?" The death glare on his face was full of evil promises.
Walker was about to explain but Remey broke Su's grip and stood in front of the old man. "How about I make you drink it when I extract my own from the bones of a purple bog toad." She didn't even flinch saying this. Her tear stained face holding no room for argument.

"Oh really, and you think your party leader can do that with just your advice?" The old man looked at her knowing that this was not a joke but had been a serious accusation.
"No, with my skills and two hands I will do it. My Alchemical Brawler system will let me do anything you can do. So don't think for a second that you won't be guiding me through every single skill you've ever used or seen when it comes to alchemy." Remey stood as tall as possible and held a clenched hand up to the old man.
"You're actually serious.." he could see in her eyes that she wasn't playing with him at all and that Remey was seriously saying she would learn his skills. In all his years he had only ever seen her act this way when one of her siblings was sick and she wanted medicine for them. He would ignore her sometimes and she would leave but when it was dire she would strike this same pose and face. "How?"
Without any reason to doubt her he asked the simple question. Remet grabbed his hand and dragged him off. "I will be back. I have a lot to learn before we go to the sun hollow forest. I will be living in the alchemy lab so I can keep you all healed on our journey." Not a single one of them could argue this. She had pure flame in her eyes and it spoke of future strength. This inspired them beyond what they had expected.
"Walker" Gil looked at where Remey was running off to and then at Walker.
" Go on a hunting trip Gil. Your father said he wanted to go after some wild boar right? Take some time to figure things out." Gil nodded and ran off out the door as well. He did not want to be left behind. Remey could now do a much larger part in the party and even made promises to create things with her own two hands. How could he let her get ahead. He was technically the second in command for the party after all.
"Leader, Is it really OK to let them go off on their own right now?" Su was worried that Remey would have a hard time adjusting no matter how much she pushed. She had finally realized a lifelong dream but it was not going to be as easy as she hoped. Not to mention Gil would need to relearn how to use his mana, with the absorption coming in he would need to learn the usage balance.
"Yes, I think this is best for them. They are the main rivals in our party. If Remey learns how to make even low tier potions with skills then she will be a huge asset to us. Not to mention she is still our main close combat roll. Gil now has full access to the attack that he has been limited by. Plus as much as he denies it, he feels weak. You have seen him practicing all this time, he is just like me that way. We both feel the need to get stronger."
Su understood where Walker was coming from but she still worried that if they all split up they would lose their ability to work as a team. "Also they will be back to get fitted for their new gear so then we can drag them in to some real training. I'm also not going to make you train with a group until you are used to your new vision skill." Walker's point was logical. Su could have a ton of accidents while adjusting to this new way of sight. Whether someone's vision improved or worsened they would need to adjust.
Walker and Su looked at Midnight who was bugging the high priest who had noticed the floor she had started to accidentally tear up while flexing and getting used to her body starting to change. "Hey Alice, is there any way we won't need to fix that?" Walker looked at her and felt his heart fall. She was shaking her head no.
