Temperature surely dropped and the air itself seemed to get a little cooler.
Gil had understood that Rmeey had been very busy with Su for some time now, but they all were busy in their own ways. Especially with so many new things happening.
It was only a matter of time before Walker came to drag Gil off somewhere again. He just had that feeling.
But Ignus being cold about the facts that Remey had been focused elsewhere? Now that was something Gil hadn't expected to be like that. Mostly because his heated temper was similar to Remey's and the two of them would definitely never act cold compared to their natural states.
"I'm sure she will be finished with whatever it is they are working on together soon." Gil's attempt to smooth it just made Ignus growl slightly again.
Luckily, they could focus on the actions before them.
The gale horn ogres had been greatly enhancing the flames from the dragonkin fire mages.These actions had cause a wind wall of flames to bathe the herbs within the field causing them to begin to burn easily. The temperature did not destroy the seeds within the rolling pea herbs.
It proved their impeccable control over both manas between the two.
This also showed that their timing was ideal as well, the timing needed to create a wall of flames from a fire ball rather than some form of fire magic without wind at all.
On top of it, the other dragonkin with shields and the gale horn ogres who could also use wind based shield skills were trapping the flames. Not a single bit of fire or sparks were moving outside of the field.
"Preparing more high fire affinity potions for my dragons has been put on hold. I am no alchemist, I am a royal fire dragon."
This sounded more like an excuse of why Ignus was annoyed rather than the actual reason.
"Then why not hunt her down and talk with her? It's way easier than sitting here unhappy while watching your dragonkin and another race who recently arrived become instant partners.
Not that you seem to unhappy about that, just in general." Giving advice, in any form.
To Ignus was not something Gil would have ever imagined himself doing. He felt like he was having an out of body experience right now.
"I do not need another fight right now. I have just repaired the damage done when flames became too great for the last alchemy lab."
Now this raised Gil's eyebrows. He had not expected that the pair would fight enough to release flames which could burn up a strongly reinforced alchemy lab.
"Then don't fight and just say whatever it is you need to say. If you think you will fight, then say you won't and hold yourself back.
You're a fire dragon with a ton of power. You should be able to hold yourself back a little."
Gil was sure that it was more amazing to see Remey and Ignus actually fighting at the end of the day rather than speak normally.
But then he wondered if Remey could even go a few minutes without fighting in general.
She always punched him in the arm whenever he joked around. So wouldn't she always be fighting? It was too much to compare right now.
"Things would be easier if she was born a dragon." To Ignus, this would make the best sense.
Then he could go about things more naturally.
"Remey might have been a fire dragon in another life.
She started raising her siblings in the orphanage and always fought with them. Then she started adventuring and beating monsters to a pulp.
And now she focuses on alchemy but she basically just learned about the fire she could control over other elemental manas she manipulates using fire and other means. So, for all purposes, she somewhat followed the life of a fire dragon.
"
From what Gil could see, Ignus was considering this much deeper than what Gil expected.
"Hm, I can try that."
Ignus nodded at the dragonkin making them all somewhat more serious. Whether it was because they were joyful or if they felt that their hard work was seen, was unclear.
Regardless, Ignus had left Gil to handle the rest of this entirely.
As Gil began taking a more vocal role in praising the gale horn ogres and fire mage dragonkin, Ignus had moved off toward where he could sense Remey.
They had bonded close enough to have a sense of where the other was. Just part of Ignus sharing his mana and more with her.
"They will be fine there. The control of wind mana from living within the wind elemental planes is greater than many others.
Their wind sword and more bestial fighting styles using their horns and condensing wind mana on their body was very high class. My dragonkin have grown many times more than they did within the village.
They were challenged and their blood set aflame."
The out loud thinking that Ignus was doing was something he had done before when left entirely alone.
Even though he was a fire dragon through and through, they were not always chaotic or in a rage. He was a royal dragon and had to learn to hold back to think of his elders and the dragonkin living within their villages.
It would be foolish to believe he was only even ranting or running wild. He wouldn't even be able to meet with the other royal dragons let alone join the Genesis alliance and represent the dragons together with the others.
"Ignus?" Remey was ready to wind up and give him a punch, but she had thought better of it when she realized that he was just standing there.
"I have to meet with a small group of soldiers who wish to participate.
I have to evaluate their strength and whether or not they will be able to handle setting up an outside base camp for us. Remey, don't worry about helping and take a break.
"
The way that Su looked at Ignus as she had partially helped snap him out of things. But he was internally questioning why she was grinning so widely at him as he had appeared there without much thought.
"Really? What did you come find us for? We were busy." Remey's response was annoyed, but clearly she was more cautious and a bit worried than anything.
"When will you be back in your lab?"
"That's all? I will be in another week or two. Whenever Su is ready to leave."
This was even more annoying and Remey was following her normal Remey style of communicating.
"When are we going to make more potions?" Ignus changed the question leaving Remey a little more silent than usual.
Her voice lost its annoyed tone as she managed to notice something else in Ignus's tone as well.
"You can help me after Su and I finish for the day.
She is training tomorrow so she can train with Alice as she planned. She knows the healers she will ask to go with her better than I do since she spends all the time there anyways."
"Sounds perfect to me."
Su hummed to herself enjoying the last bit of conversation she heard from a distance before fully leaving the northern soldier barracks.
The group she planned to meet with would be reporting to the training field nearby within the hour so she had time to clear a space and prepare to test their skills and interview them fully.
But she had worried that Remey was worrying way too much.
Clearly, someone else had also been worried about not seeing her in the past few days.
While Su could feel the difference between her and Ignus at a dragon level, she also knew she could fight Ignus head on. Besides that, she looked at Ignus in a different light since she knew very well how much he risked and sacrificed to allow Remey a path of her own.
"Now, I see you are all training. I need some room for an evaluation of a few fellow soldiers.
How about I teach you all a thing or two while we wait for that time?" Su stepped on the large soldier and guard training field neary. Her words echoed a little as she had announced them so that every soldier heard her.
Recognizing her, multiple instructors and multiple high ranked guard captains stopped their training and brought everyone in line to Su. Having training with one of the heroes who could fight with dragons, even if she was younger than them, was a true honor.
They could learn to better lead and protect Genesis.
This was one of the atmospheres that the party raised and boasted about.
