"Let me use my high earth sculpting on that. I should be able to fix it." Walker placed his hands over the scratches dug in to the stone floor and slowly used mana to make them close up and smooth to match the rest of the floor. 

"Hmm good, now no more testing your upgrades and new skills in my room. I plan to get some real sleep after checking on  the healers from the military academy. Alice you better be off to sleep too. You have stayed up all day and night waiting for them." The high priest took a strict tone, this was the same time Walker's father used on him. 

"Let me carry the books for you, I will come back after stopping at the adventurers guild and home to explain what happened. Knowing Gil he is going to find his father and rush off without telling his mother." Su nodded her head agreeing that this was exactly what Gil would do. 

The high priest checked the door making sure that the old alchemist had not damaged it in his worry. Seeing that it was fine she moved forward glancing at all of them to make sure they were following. He was wary of them scraping up the floor more.

Alice grabbed the edge of Walkers cloak and pulled him down a side halfway. Su saw this, "I will wait outside with Midnight, we can all go to report this together." 

Alice pulled him down hallway after hallway and out a back door. This was not her room at all but a large back garden. There were many yellow flowers starting to bloom in the warming spring air. She kept pulling Walker farther to a small gazebo by a tall white tree. She patted the table in the gazebo showing him the place for the books. 

"Don't tell me you are going to start reading now?" she nodded in response. "Well, I won't tell you not to but just get some rest too." He knew that Alice had also felt the motivation Remey had sparked in Gil. She had seen just how far away from her her new friends were. She needed to get stronger as well. 

Walker pulled the books from his storage and placed them on the table. Alice looked at the, approvingly. "I should head back. I can't leave them waiting all day, I've already rested long enough." He turned to leave and head around the cathedral when he felt tow arms wrap around him from the back. 

"I am sorry if I worried you...I will be better about that in the future…" Walker felt Alice tighten her grip before she eventually released him. "I will be back to see you again soon, Don't let the high priest catch you reading instead of sleeping." Walker gave her his best smile and headed around the cathedral. Before he had even gotten halfway to the front Alice had already fallen asleep cuddling a book she had just opened to the first page.

The high priest had followed the pair out and walked to stand next to Alice. "I swear no matter how many times I tell you not to sleep out here, this is the only place I find you." He grabbed a book from the stack and started to read himself. He had not had a new book himself for quite some time. 

"Hey, sorry I took so long!" Walker spotted Midnight and Su standing at the bottom of the steps to the cathedral. 

"It's fine, Midnight was just practicing her flapping. It looks like she can extend them more easily now. I bet she will have a growth spurt like Onyx will too." Walker recoiled at this.

"Midnight, what will we do if you can't fit in the house?" Su made a surprised oh face at this realization as well.

"Sister says that you can build a new house that she can fit in." Walker almost tripped while walking hearing this. She wanted him to build a whole new mansion if she grew too big for it.

"Maybe we should look in to a way for you to get a skill that makes you smaller instead. I have read some story books about ancient dragons using a transformation ability to look human when they go traveling. They were just story books but maybe they hold some truth." This brought a hop to Midnight step. She pranced along imagining herself on the move just like the others in her party.

"I think more and more that we should go looking for an ancient dragon's village in the mountains. I never know enough about dragons to give any firm answers." Walker lamented his lack of knowledge. He hated not being able to help in this way. 

"Well first we need to get through the sun hollow forest and investigate those purple slime's rotting away the forest." Su was logical as ever and made sure Walker remembered their current goal. 

"If Remey can learn some rot and poison antidote potions we will have a better chance of defeating and gaining more knowledge. That would be plenty of stress off our backs." Walker had made the connection that with Remey's new upgraded system she would be their best chance to stay poison free. The only one that had poison resistance was Su. 

This fact was one they needed to figure out sooner or later and having such a perfect solution all of the sudden was a blessing. They would just need to gather the power herbs  for Remey before they left and let her have the time she needed. The old master alchemist was sure to have some very effective antidote potion formulas he would share with them. 

"You know, I don't think I will need to try to hard to learn alchemy now. Remey will most likely take over that role in the party completely." Walker said this more stating a fact than really worrying about it. 

"Leader, you know Remey will find a way to force you to learn the skills. She will want to show off everything she can do and since you will actually be able to learn the skills it is expected that she will drag you in to is." Su's logic was true but Walker was no a little afraid of the alchemy lab and the future tortures learning from Remey may bring.

When they started to see the Guild building Midnight stopped looking at the entrance. "What's wrong?" Walker saw her stop and followed her gaze. Clara was standing with her arms crossed in front of the entrance glaring the three of them, down. "Is it just me or does she look really really angry?' Walker shivered knowing that they may be getting the talk of their life from Clara. He wished that Gil and Remey had come too so that they would get the same treatment. Even Onyx would miss it because he had long since turned back in to his tattoo form to rest. 

The three of them approached Clara slowly, "Guild master's office, now." This was all that Clara said and the tone she used caused the, all to feel more shivers. 

They followed the same steps that they were used to towards the guild master's office, however Su was having some trouble getting up the steps easily. Her new vision passive skill was causing her trouble. The details in the wood were messing with her perception and she was either lifting her foot too high or not high enough making her stumble slightly. Walker slowed himself so that if she started to fall he was there to be someone to hold on to for support. 

Clara saw this but still said nothing more. She was just as curious about why this was happening but her anger was not letting her ask at the moment. Walker saw the constant glances she gave them, and each tie he felt that there was more ice crawling up his spine. He had not expected this reaction from Clara. 

When they reached the office spaces they found that every single employees was missing from the floor. It was dead silent and the guild office door was already open. Ibis was standing instead of sitting at his desk. Instead of Barry like they had expected the only other person in the room was someone they did not expect to see at all. 

The queen sat in Ibis's chair looking rather pleased while she drank tea from one of the finest tea cups the guild had in possession. There was a single guard who wore red and white armor. This was a style of armor not a single one  of them had ever seen. The guard was covering their face with a similar help and had blades all over them ready to be pulled from their sheaths at any second. 

Upon seeing the three come upstairs the queen placed her tea cup down and motioned for them to come in. "Well I have heard your party caused quite the commotion the last day or so. Why do you think I am here?"
