Master Of None

Seeing the changes in Su made every single dragonkin watching want to kneel down. They weren't sure since only a few had seen the draconic battle form, however, they could feel it. This form was higher than them. It was much closer to a dragon than they were and it had power.

Unfortunately, after just a few seconds, the dragonkin fighting Su had been radically slammed back. Her mana had been burned up and Su had started to return to her normal state. The only issue was that she was barely conscious and was close to being completely unconscious.

Scylla jumped in between where the three dragonkin had landed and Su with a gust of wind. Her face was much more serious than before. She had seen the strength that came with Su under pressure. It was incredible. But the reason she had jumped in between the two parties was that Su had managed to deal damage through the dragonkin's metal skin.

They had been pushed farther back than anyone had expected and the metal layer of scales was cut apart. While the dragonkin were still breathing and conscious, they were injured much worse than one would have expected from a shield. That was what the incredible burst of strength had done. That was what just having a toe across the line to using the draconic battle form was.

To a draconic guardian, this was their most powerful trump skill. Their last ditch effort to protect their dragon champion. For Su, the only reason that she had just stuck a  single toe over that line was her inexperience. She was too far from being able to understand and master the elemental affinities that she now had. She needed to find more skills and more ways to train them. Eventually, her body would catch up and she could truly start to use the skill when in need.

"The winner today is the indomitable Su. An intense performance showing the polishing of a mighty diamond! The top of the food chain! The sole human draconic guardian known to man that brings comfort to all that need protection!" Scylla spoke and there was a collective cheer. Everyone that had watched could only agree they had witnessed something amazing.

Meanwhile, there were already healers helping the dragonkin that were injured. They had enough strength to bounce back from such an injury. However, that didn't mean Su hadn't realized that she had managed to cut right through their metal skin skill. She had felt it. The feeling of her pointed shields hitting them.

"What abou…are they…"

"Sister, you are strong. They are safe." Midnight leaned on Su. she had felt everything from their unique bond. Every small desire to get stronger. It had made her blood boil. It had made Midnight rush to Su and be there as her support.

The relationship between a draconic guardian and a dragon champion were not so small that they were just one way. This was their closest bond other than the dragon champion to the royal dragon. They were linked closer than siblings would be. That was why Su could also feel how proud Midnight was. How happy Midnight was to have a sister that was so strong and could easily protect everyone around her naturally.

"That's more than enough. I will show you a thing or two when you can stand. I will share it with your champion as well. I don't want to see such a young dragon harmed." Terron made the excuse to also show Midnight, he had silently arrived without anyone else noticing. It was a surprise since he had done so in his dragonkin form. Not many people would expect the earth royal dragon to be stealthy.

"Perfect." Su heard what she had desired and fell heavily on to Midnight who was more than happy to help carry her to bed.

"So you felt that too. A draconic guardian for less than fifty years just started to use the draconic battle form. We have never had such a true born guardian for a champion before." Rise was high with praise. She had never seen nor read of such a thing. How could she not give credit where credit was due? Especially after history was clearly made.

"You are correct about that. I did not expect to see such a thing in such a place. Especially with the storm brewing like this. Maybe that was a reason. The stress of an incoming storm affects everyone at every level." Ventus looked in to the dark clouds that had begun to roll in with the wind and the waves.

"You both should mind your own business. This was a challenge issued by me. I was testing her to see if she would be worthy of learning the skill I use to defend myself. The metallic skin skill is nice. But that is a child that could learn the diamond skin skill." Terron said that before returning below deck. He only needed a look for his dragonkin to know that they needed to go with him and a few needed to remain with their brethren who had been injured.

"Since you are here, Is it possible to use your wind to block the winds against us?" Scylla knew that this would be tough, but if anyone could do it, it would be Ventus.

"This storm is not large. I can not change nature though. I can only block some of it from the ships. Remain on course and take measures to prevent the worst." Ventus saw that Scylla was being honest with her and could only say she would help. There was the added bonus that a lot of mana would be around them during a storm. It was one reason that Su had reacted the way that she did. Higher mana in a chaotic state would always affect someone with multiple affinities.

"Are all of you prepared?" Leon ran up to them he had seen the battle but had focused on getting the merfolk out of the waters. He had also told the dwarves that it was best to keep the golems out of the waters under any circumstance possible. They could easily be swept away from the ships and be lost forever.

"Yes, we are preparing some maneuvers. I have asked Lady Ventus to help us prevent the wind from throwing us off course. I was going to ask you to organize the water mages." Scylla was already working well with all of them. She had taken the lead against the storm even during the battle that Su had been doing. No one had noticed the demi-human soldiers moving around to alert and awaken anyone that needed to be woken.

The change in the ship were also clear. There had been things set up for the ships to battle against storms. The runes were activating at higher levels since they had been set up to use the manas around for this instance. There were also preparations to keep the sails from getting torn in the storms. The sails were partially there to help the ships move, but right now they were going to be harmful to the course and making it through the storms.

The issue that they all encountered was the fact that the waves were growing. The water mages would be key in this. Naturally, it had already started to alert Walker, Current, and Mordant. They felt that changes around and had started to join in the preparation themselves. Mordant had specifically set his dragonkin to be on watch for the rails. He trusted that they could use the shadows to react fast enough to capture anyone falling over the railings.

Current was in a different position. Just like Ventus, he had been asked to help. Walker had started to ask right away as soon as he felt the changes in nature. He wanted to make sure that there would be someone with very powerful water magic skills to save them if a major wave came at them.

The large waves were the true tests that would potentially flip the ships or sink them. The ships had not been tested in storms yet, they had been designed by the best of the best. However, the ships were still the top of the line. Those that had worked on them had a lot of knowledge and had contributed everything they had to offer to them.

There was also the issue that the storm clouds brought themselves. Mainly lightning. No one knew better that there was always one thing that lightning liked to strike the most. It would go for the heist point. But it also liked to strike metal. People knew not to walk through fields during lightning with metal on their bodies. They would be a target. Right now, the ships were metal in an open space. Only water was around them.
