Master Of None Chapter 1464 1464. Burnt Out

"He's pretty much done. I haven't seen him work this hard on sothing that wasn't training magic for a long ti." Gil was pretty tired and dirty himself. He has taken as much of the work on as possible.

"I tried to tell him we could help after the soldiers had taken over the major healing effort. They bandaged and set everything up for when Onyx gets here with the healers. But Walker was in so sort of trance. He didn't talk, or even react." Rey hadn't been sure what to do with the situation and had just gone back to helping Su.

"That's just how he is. He saw a clear goal. Especially after what the soldiers said. It was a little much." Su smiled softly through her tiredness. She was looking at the still steaming pot of thin soup that had been made. Walker had used all of his mana to make everything perfect. She was sure he had gained so new skill sohow.

"Speaking of Onyx, I think I can see him." Gil had been taking careful lookout since Onyx had left. Even though he had given a lot of his effort to helping Walker, he had been able to keep his eyes open.

"I think Onyx did exactly what Walker did. Nonstop work until he was here. He didn't even let the healers that ca keep their carriage. He has them on his back." Su nearly laughed while Alice blatantly let out a very stifled laugh so as not to hurt her voice more.

The healers on Onyx's back were slightly green from the brisk movents. Yet, they were clearly focused on the people they could see ahead of them. "I will go and tell them what's going on. You two make sure that Midnight and Walker rest properly instead of by the fire like that." Gil jogged over toward Onyx.

"If this wasn't the situation that it was, I would say we are slowing ourselves down. But this is more important." Rey was sure that they would co across people like this again. The odds were too high. If there was soone or sothing leading the demons that made them run about in madness, there was only more chances that other demons would flee for their lives.

"I agree, we need to get there sooner. These demons didn't get hurt crossing the borders due to soldiers attacking them. They were hurt by magic and rough tools. I would be willing to bet that not all of them were affected by whatever skill causes them to go mad. They aren't like demonic monsters that lose their sanity easily." The stress Su had seed to be growing. She didn't want to get to the border and see losses.

They were on their way to prevent losses. If the party was delayed longer than the first batches of supplies would be delayed as well. Sothing that was absolutely important to the order's survival. Let alone all the demons like these ones here.

"Onyx says that the healers are coming behind us too. Another two groups and four adventurer parties joined together at the village since we left. They are like a line of help heading this way. The cathedral and Clara sent them in certain routes to cover more of the border evenly." Gil had managed to speak with Onyx who had been told this by the healers.

The farming village was being fortified by a few of the Genesis soldiers that could remain there. They partnered with healers so that the village could work as they should on their crops. It was a massive help since the pearl grape farm was appearing to be a highly traveled middle point in the current state of the war.

"Hmm?" Walker ca to a little when Rey had nudged him. She was going to try and pick him up to lay him down on one of the bed rolls they set up nearby. However, he was not yet sleeping soundly. The sa was with Midnight when Su and Gil tried to move her toward a place that was not the dirt ground.

"Onyx made it back with healers?" Walker saw the changes around him instantly. He had been waiting for it.

"Yes, he just got here. He will be in the sa shape as you after his adrenaline wears off. He moved at his fastest speed the entire ti to the village and back. There is a lot more help on the way that will be here halfway through the night." Gil didn't even cut corners. He gave it to Walker straight.

"Good, the more people we have here to get them moving the better. I think we can set up a secondary rest area in another half day of traveling." The idea was to make it easier for the refugees and soldiers to rest and heal. There were sure to be a lot more of them coming as soon as the armies gathered. There was also the benefit that they would be able to see the true colors of Genesis earlier to decide if they even wanted to live there.

"But you, Midnight, Onyx, and Gil are all resting. Su and I took out ti to rest as we went. You four have ignored resting and burnt yourselves out." Rey looked ready to continue yelling at them if Su hadn't given her a harsh look. She did have a point.

"If you are saying it then I guess you're right." Walker felt it was comical that Rey was the one telling them to rest. She was more well known for locking herself in the alchemy lab for days at a ti lately.

"Just go and rest so we can leave in four or five hours." Rey huffed a little and rushed off.

"I can not argue with that." Onyx slithered over and fell to sleep in an instant. No one hesitated to follow his lead.
