36 Basics (2/2)
Hoemis nodded. He wanted to help the Ancient Ones, or at least tell them what is happening, but he understood what his master said. ”When is the Lord of the Skies attacking?”
”That I do not know. He plans to gather an army of dragons and when he has enough, he will attack.”
”How strong are these dragons?”
”Let me check.” Karl brought up a screen showing the details of dragons and read it. ”They have an average level of 150, but their numbers aren't as numerous as the other races.”
”I hope everything will be alright.”
Karl chuckled. ”You know, for a God of Destruction, you sure aren't happy about destruction.”
”I still enjoy destruction, but I enjoyed my time in the floating city, even if it was only for a few days.”
”Don't worry, I don't want the Ancient Ones going extinct, so if their numbers go below a certain number, I'll let you help them.”
Hoemis nodded. ”I understand. Is there anything else that has happened in the world?”
”Yeah. Remember chakra? A lot of people around the world are experimenting with this new energy, even humans.”
”Yes, that's what I would expect most people to do.”
”I know, but do you know that most shocking part? It isn't the Samians, Ancient Ones, Dwarves, Humans, or Lolleons that are having the most success with chakra, it's monsters.”
”That is interesting. Surely it must be intelligent monsters like dragons?”
”Well, surprisingly, it's monsters that are not as intelligent. You see, they rely more on their instincts, so chakra comes naturally to them, but intelligent beings will always be better.”
”I see. That does make sense. Master, did you know that Senior Adum has his own religion?”
Karl nodded. ”I have heard of that, I believe they're called the Cult of Adum.”
”I kind of want my own religion,” Hoemis said, slightly jealous of Adum. ”Thinking about it, I already do. Maybe I should teach my followers Destruction Magic?”
”Go for it, just make sure you choose someone good.”
”Yeah, I will, but it probably won't happen in a while. I have a student you see, and I need to make him strong.”
Karl already knew that Hoemis had a student from watching the kid training. ”Why don't you teach your student Destruction Magic?”
”Why didn't I think of that? Master, you are truly a genius.”
Karl slapped his forehead. ”I'm not a genius, I was just thinking logically. Now, shouldn't you head back down to your student?”
