Master Of None

Chapter 733 - 733. Change Of Clothes

Walker was enjoying the teaching aspect of this situation. He rarely got to speak with anyone about meditating and sensing the elements to better understand them. None of the demons seemed to be able to sense the elemental they were trying to learn. But that was to be expected since they had just started trying to learn. Even for someone that had just received their system it would take some time to sense things.Â

Soon, Markus returned. "Let me guess, the king is ready to speak to us about everything that is going on?" Markus nodded. "Alright, I will get my party and head to the castle." Walker was about to head away when Markus spoke up.

"The king is here. He said he wanted to meet the demons. He said that he had not met one before and if he was going to be part of the Genesis alliance that he couldn't be ignorant about an entire race." This was very unexpected. The king was not supposed to just casually leave the castle.Â

Seeing the king walk in wearing clothing that the higher military official wore was shocking. They did not expect that he would be wearing anything other than the royal robes that he was shown in and wore when meeting guess.Â

"Do not bow to me or kneel. Please. I am here to welcome you to our kingdom." The king held up a hand. This was not a time for formalities and garnering favor. "I wish you had come to visit on better circumstances and apologize for the situation. I hope that the Genesis alliance can help you and your families in the future."

The demons were in awe to see a kind leader. They had never met one that actually would stand on the same level as they would. It was more common for the higher ranked demons to stand above or only step down to kick or kill another demon.Â

"I know you have already been offered a home with the Genesis city. I also know the heroes have opened their doors as well. You will be surprised that you are not the first demon they have rescued. They managed to find a little demon girl in the demi-human city under the control of a criminal. I hope she can guide you all to the ways of the city while you rest here." The king was playing bis cards well. By mentioning that the party had rescued a demon before he put them on a pedestal. The party would be much more revered by the demons now no matter what.Â

"I understand you have become shocked. The situation here has changed many things and the wheels of fate are moving. The world has changed from what we know and fighting the demons unfair treatment seems to be moving things for the better of every race. I have heard you all have been given quests to learn various basics. You are not the only ones. Humans here in the city have begun to reach out in this chaos. I even spoke with other rulers using a magic item to learn they have similar occurrences. You are not alone."Â

This was indeed shocking news. The party and every single demon was stunned. But this also brought a wave of calmness. Knowing that this was in theory, happening around their world was calming enough. "In the coming days, I will spare no effort to assist you with the staff and guards I have within my power. If you need food, ask. If you need guidance, ask. Anything, just ask. There will be other races right by your side learning as well. I will have my officials go around and issue an identification. You may sign up as a Genesis city citizen today if you desire."Â

The king backed away and many nobles and other higher ranked guards and military officials came forward to take over. It was an enlightening and pure encounter. Walker couldn't help but feel impressed. The king had really outdone himself and put his best foot forward with this incident.Â

"I know you may have questions, but I have little in the means of answers. The quests seem to be guided towards the freedom of the demon race. I feel that something has interfered in the world for many years and that is why there are age caps on the systems. Our oldest history books have pictures of children and elders dazzled in light that we assume is their system. We assume now that it was the world blessing them with their systems at any age. My scholars are reviewing the records with a new perspective. I mentioned this to other rulers and ancient records are not well kept. Even the elves struggle with the exact time this age cap became normal."Â

Walker spoke slowly in response, "So we may have been wrong for generations because the world has been fighting off corruption. Do you remember the story I reported about the immortal King? He told us of an experimental subject born with a hero system. That person rejected the will of the world and was cursed. Maybe it's related?" Walker didn't have evidence or even proof that could be possible. But his gut was telling him it was the right direction.Â

"In the least, it is pointing us to freeing the demon race. I have received a letter ahead of the merfolk representative. He will reach the location of the new city in three months. We have t think about the dragons too. Apparently, there has been smoke rising from the highest mountains." The king looked worried but steeled himself.Â

"I know you are going to want us to go to the city and be there for the summit. We will be. But we rushed back to be here for rest. Although, it seems like we will be out of food and will not be able to rest." Walker brought forth the main problem the kingdom faced.Â

"Do you think of me that poor a ruler? The harvest festival is barely upon us. I have already solved that small problem." The king had a sneaky smirk that Walker was about to inquire about before he heard a commotion at the cathedral entrance.
