Chapter 1172 – 1172. Strong Bonds

"Sister, are you really ready to go see adult dragons?" If Onyx said he was not worried about his big sister going to stand in front of dragons thought to be the strongest in the world, then it would be a blatant lie. He knew that Midnight was still less than a child compared to the royal dragons that had lived for so long. They had incomparable mastery over their elemental mana and were working toward purity in them. He knew well from his recent training how tough elemental purity was. 

The reaction Midnight had to this was a soft growl. She would have scoffed and turned away from anyone else if they asked this. She was a dragon too. She could stand above everyone else. Even Walker would get the hottie attitude in response. But Onyx was her first and only little brother. She could show just a little more to him. 

"Even if they will look down on you, I know you will stand taller than them. I just wonder what they will think when you and Brother use natural mana. They might lose their minds. Especially when Su shows off her beginning mastery of two elemental shield skills." The training to create a light shield and the earth fortress were just two elemental skills for Su. But when it came to guardians they trumped what the others would know. There was no singular focus on elemental mana for Su. Walker, Su, and Midnight could use all the elemental manas and push toward natural mana skills. That meant that Su would always be able to counter elemental mana with the opposite. Midnight would breathe the optimal elemental breath attacks. Walker would combine elemental manas to change the world. The dragons would be unable to look away from them. 

Midnight looked at Onyx carefully. She had trained with him to make sure that she would be able to grasp the light elemental breath attack she wanted to be able to use in some form. She had managed to train the fire elemental breath attack when she trained with the wandering blacksmith. She had also added the other elemental breath attacks. However weak they were, to the forging process of the bracelets. The elves had helped in getting spirits to assist in the spirit forging process for the bracelets as well. Overall, Midnight had been able to train her flying, and elemental breath attacks much more than expected. 

"Sister, just because I have trained my light and darkness control does not mean I am able to combine them yet. They are opposing forces. Brother managed to do it but I am still learning. By the time you get back, I will have mastered more though." Midnight had challenged Onyx to combine his elemental manas too. His natural affinity to lighter because he consumed it was well beyond Midnights at the moment. That gave him the ability to help her train along with Alice and Su. But he also had the affinity for darkness. It was his main elemental affinity. He could also guide Midnight with that. But when it came to fusing the two he was at a loss. He had tried to do so in different forms but always ended up with separate results. 

Walker had managed to combine them but he had the assistance of his unique system. Onyx needed to take more time to learn and felt that the purity of each element needed to match before he was able to fuse them. But this was what Midnight would use to push her little brother further. She knew that he had more to him and that his goals were not small. If he could manage to do this he would be able to better reach the lofty goals he had set. 

"We will miss you." Alice came back from checking on the heavenly serpent egg. She knew that Onyx was worried about Midnight leaving. Therefore, she wanted to make sure she gave her full support too. She had also managed to get a lot closer to Midnight and Onyx in the recent weeks. They had come to the cathedral and Onyx, in particular, had been training alongside Alice. She felt like a much closer member of the family now compared to before the move to Genesis. 

The unexpected reaction from midnight was enough to make Alice completely stunned. Before she could move, Midnight had jumped up and pounced on Alice. She rubbed her head to Alice's face with a soft growl. She had felt the same closeness to Alice lately and was very glad to see her more often. It helped that Midnight and Onyx could feel the emotions that Walker had for Alice but it was more than that. Alice was quiet still but showed a deep care for everyone around her. If Alice had never been left as a baby on the steps of the cathedral, it was a sure bet that she would have still found her way there to help others. 

"Sister, you are squishing Alice!" Onyx did his best to try and pull Midnight away but it was all for naught. 

"And here Su and I were worried that we would be late to meet up with you. But you three are just having a grand old time." It was easy for Walker and Su to find the three in the cathedral. They had their spot to train and work on elemental control right by the heavenly serpent's room. If they weren't there then they would be in the back courtyard training more. 

"Brother, Alice and I were just making sure that sister was going to be safe on the trip!" Midnight got away from Alice and she waited for Walker and Su to say their own goodbyes. It was not supposed to be a long trip but it would be a very important one. They wanted to send the three off with all the support they needed.
