Master Of None-Chapter 2779. Some Room To Grow

"He shouldn't come and explore with us, right?" It was a while before Walker could take the chance to actually think about all of this. He had been teased for a while since he had entirely missed all the hints that the girls had given him.

Even when Onyx had arrived, Onyx had guessed this in just a few moments of the others dropping small hints. It was even more embarrassing since that started a whole new round of teasing for Walker.

"If you tell Gil that he might fight you to the death. He is going to come on this expedition with everyone because he has to. It's not going to be about just one adventure before he is busy with family matters, it will be about establishing a potential future for everyone who relied on him to grow here."

While the words Su said were sweet, they also had a backbone to them that told Walker she understood what Gil would feel. She clearly felt the same when she was looking to teach more guards to be stronger to protect people. Yet, she also knew very well that she would have to go out and explore herself so that those guards could face new challenges. If she stopped exploring and working toward new lands, then she wouldn't be teaching anyone at all any more.

While the ideals were different, they mirrored the same feelings of desire for the future and the present. Gil needed to be out there because that was how he would establish more for the future. That was just the fact of the matter.

"I don't want to stop him, I just want to make sure that we are doing the right thing." Walker looked at the various nutrient potions and other items before storing them away in his high spatial storage. He knew that the multi dimensional storage skills were progressing and he could do more with it, but just having a basic storage was nice. If he delved too deeply in to space mana and the new skill he felt he might lose something here.

That was why he was worried for Gil. If Gil headed to a new land with them, then what if he realized he was going to be missing too much? What if he realized his true passion was out there in the unknown and would struggle to show Genesis and his family what they needed from himself?

While the worries were not in line with who Walker believed Gil to be, that didn't mean there wasn't potential for everything. There was always the chance that something more could happen and that would need to be established.

"There are many who will support Gil and Alma in the future. So Gil should find the adventure he needs to have stories for the elves he is going to teach and raise." The perspective that Alice had was always bright. She gave so much to everyone that in her mind, this expedition was a new gift to the future.

If Walker and the others with hero titles led everyone to explore the state of this untouched continent, then there would be a lot of potential for exploration in the future. Some people were born and raised with the heart of an explorer. Right now, those with such feelings were focused on the elemental planes. A place that was exceptionally dangerous and might not be possible for everyone to venture in to if they lacked the resistance to certain manas.

However, this continent was supposed to be larger and partially underwater. That meant there was an exceptionally large amount of land and water to explore for everyone who wished to take that chance. It could be explored by those who were unable to venture in to the elemental planes.

And even better, a hero like Gil would come home to share the stories to inspire the next generation while assisting those who wish to take that journey in the coming years. It was a brilliant tinder for the spark of hope and excitement for others to have.

"I guess we can force Gil to be in charge of the explorers heading there after. He could organize groups and teach them the newest information before they take a flying ship, ocean ship, or teleportation formation." Walker was liking this more and more.

"Walker! I was sent to three different forges and a training field before I found you!" The slightly out of breath appearance of Gil in the doorways to Remey's alchemy workshop proved to be enough of a surprise to make everyone wonder why he would be rushing around like this.

"I managed to get seventy members of the elf guard and even a few extra adventurers who want to join your exploration. I will go too since it's a big deal but I wanted you to help me tell them how to train for it." With how serious Gil appeared, everyone knew exactly why, but their smirks and slightly knowing faces proved to be an oddity to Gil.

"We heard that there is some news you want to tell us, Gil. something about the forest elf queen sensing a little more life than there was before." Now it was Gil's turn to appear bullied and teased. The others hadn't shown this much focus on Walker but he knew what Gil was in for.

"I should have known that Su and Midnight would catch on to all this since they were around me enough. But it's still not going to be made easy, is it?" with a large sight he sat down. "I need to speak to my parents so don't go bothering them about all this. But apparently the connection to generations and generations of elves helps tell when there might be a new elf born. There are signs that appear not everyone can see."

There was a bit of an exhausted look now that Gil understood everyone had already reached the same conclusion and had been waiting to tease him. "Actually, Alice, can you help me with the best healers for her? I know there are ways that the elves do things, but I would feel more comfortable knowing that at least one expert healer could remain near Alma for a while. I don't want to risk anything in the next month or year."

"I was planning to as soon as I finished here." Her bright smile lingered before she gave a glance to Walker and turned away. Now Walker really felt like he was in trouble since he hadn't spent a lot of time with Alice lately. Her duties and his had kept them very busy, but it seemed he had to make sure another duty took the front and top of his lists.

"Thank you, I have already guessed that things might move a little faster than normal with Alma." Now it was everyone else's turn to be confused.

"Have none of you heard anything?" It wasn't abnormal that this wasn't something that everyone would have caught on to, but it was clear they needed to hear it out loud.

"Well, with all the mana, better food, safe living arrangements, and no issues in terms of war or slavery that some had been through, birth rates are climbing. Even the dragons are saying that they are expecting the highest safe birth of eggs in their nests in the last fifty or more years. The demon race is saying that mothers are healthy and safe which is different from the last years they know of. And the elves are saying that they are no longer expecting women to carry a child for over a year since they can gain better nutrients and mana flow to the child before birth." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

This was a lot to take in. if all the changes in the world came together and the growth of Genesis came together… "You're saying that everything returning to flow and the races coming together means that there will be more mouths to feed and a need for more people to buy and build homes sooner than later."

"This is all why the dragon territories are so empty right now, plenty of room for the dragons to expand and other races to expand too. We also have a second city getting residents and now an entirely new third continent to explore. Perfect for expanding and growing even more." Gil sighed and realized that everyone had been too focused on their own paths that they had missed one of the big overall pictures.

"He's really all grown up. Like a real adult."

"Remey's right. Gil has made a lot of advanced decisions and is acting like a king now."

"Elf king Gil!"

"Oh come on, even Midnight is joining in on this?"

"Brother Gil, we know you are ready for this step. I understand the challenges you may face and will be beside you if you need me." With Onyx being heartfelt, Gil knew he wouldn't have much trouble. He just needed to what some support with his emotions and mind in a mess.

"Don't worry about it, the family is growing and we are all excited. We will make everything perfect. So let's make sure whoever your first child wants to be has that room to grow in to." Walker slapped Gil on the shoulder before they all stood to refocus on their hard work.
