Chapter 1415 1415. Failed Sneak

"Let's get a move on. We are going to get to the coliseum for the announcements!" Onyx was moving through the city streets faster and faster. He was challenging the hatchlings to use the shadows to maintain their spot behind him.

There were no worries that they would get lost since Onyx had been very careful with ensuring that they would memorize the city as it was built. This was the best way for them to become independent faster.

"You can move more flexibly to dodge through the crowds. Use your instincts more and flow with your current speed." Onyx was calling out advice while he watched the hatchlings move around the busy market. They were going the busiest route toward the coliseum for this reason.

When Onyx stopped, it wasn't because there was a problem. He had been surprised by the fact that Walker was out near the front of the coliseum with Su. "Gop and catch my big brother. Surprise him for me!' Onyx felt it would be a little funny to watch the hatchling surprise Walker. There was also the fact that Walker looked too serious and needed to lighten up.

"I just don't want there to be any trouble while the world works. I want to see who the next grand fire spirit is, but for another grand spirit to leave…" Walker had been voicing his worries to Su who had been sharing hers. She knew that her earth elemental spirit had been very focused on Ter when he had arrived. This could be good and bad for their relationship.

If Su's partner decided to pursue the potential to become a grand elemental spirit, she wasn't sure what that would mean. The grand spirits all seemed to rest and absorb great amounts of their elemental mana. If this happened to her partner she would feel that she was missing a part of herself for a long time.

On the other hand, if her partner became a grand earth elemental spirit then she would have a similar situation to Gil. She could become an avatar of the earth which would be amazing. Not that she wanted that specifically. There was mostly the potential to become stronger alongside her partner that attracted her. The pair had trained a lot together, and being more powerful was a focus.

"Sorry, one minute. There are some trouble makers that want to catch me off guard. Walker was not a fool. He had been even more fearful sensing the mana around him than usual due to the strange balance with the lack of a grand fire elemental spirit.

Su glanced around and saw the changes in the shadows just before the abyssal serpent hatchlings burst from the shadows. They were clearly looking to wrap around Walker using their bind skill. Unfortunately, he was prepared and used the shadows against him.

Walker had seen how Mordant had used the shadow elemental mana to create large attacks. It may have been a short exchange between Scylla and Mordant, but there was education in everything. Therefore, Walker used his grand elemental manipulation to pull on the coliseum's shadow. The simple goal was to make a shadow wall that the serpents had to phase in to or bounce off of.

Watching them closely, Onyx saw three of them seamlessly phase in to the shadows while the other two bounced off. Only one serpent managed to sense what Walker was doing and twist to get over the short wall of shadow. The serpent was rewarded with the fact that he fell directly on to Walker's arm and wrapped around him.

"Well, it looks like you are the winner today. The rest of you need to focus on your senses. The darkness elemental mana is yours. You have an affinity for it that is very strong, which means you can focus on it to feel what I would be doing. Later, you may or may not absorb enough light elemental mana to open your affinity for the light elemental mana as well."

Walker went in to full teacher mode. He was sure that all the abyssal serpents would eventually recognize their light elemental affinity. If Walker had a theory, he would say that the heavenly serpents had the same potential. They may have the chance to unlock a weak darkness elemental affinity as well. Mostly because there was always a little darkness in light and light within darkness. The two could only exist when the other did.

"Brother, look at your foot. That is a recently hatched student of mine. He has the best darkness affinity yet." Onyx was proudly slithering up to Walker whole Walker showed his surprise. The small abyssal serpent had been so sneaky that Walker had not even sensed him at all.

"That's great. Welcome to the family. You seem to have a pretty good talent for sneaking around. Don't go getting in to too much trouble." The soft pat on the head seemed to bring great joy to the little abyssal serpent. He could feel the praise even though he had not begun to understand language the same way as the other abyssal serpents had.

"We came to hear the announcement about the new potions that Remey and I worked on. Then we want to hear about the next competition beginning." Onyx seemed very excited for everyone to hear the fruits of his and Remey's labor. They had spent many hours to create the potions they had gathered the ingredients for. Now that they had a successful creation, Remey just needed to have the alchemy guild steadily gather more and more ingredients to produce them upon order.

"Well, I want to hear all about it. Who's coming with me?" Su outstretched a hand and watched as multiple abyssal serpent hatchlings decided to join her entering the coliseum.

"Sister, you can't sneak up on me either." Onyx caught Midnight just as she was about to pounce on him. Onyx had perfectly caught the change in the darkness elemental mana from her shadow wrapping skill.
