Master Of None

Manipulating the mana around him proved to be a tougher task for Walker. He was trying to pull at the natural mana around him and found that it was not allowing him easy control. Since Fleur had gone in to rest, he was completely alone with this. It would have been nice if she was awake, however, Walker had felt her begin to slowly absorb natural mana.

This alone meant that Walker would be having a harder time with this. But it was also good. The natural mana that Fleur needed was much higher than the other elemental spirits. That was because she needed the mana of all elements formed together to create natural mana. There was rarely dense natural mana around.

The storm was different though. The changing of manas left a lot of dense natural mana. Therefore, Walker could sense the manas changing and moving around him. The water elemental man was the most prevalent. That was followed by wind. They were both being pushed up, down, left, right, and any other possible direction. Every time the water sprayed in is face, it was blown away by the wind.

There was also the fire elemental mana. That was the surprise. Walker had always wondered how storms were made. He had forcefully mixed the manas before and even found that when he used a lot of his mana to use the lightning sword styles, he was creating small arcs and sparks. But that was just it, that was not real lightning, it was just a mana reaction to his actions. He could not control that.

This meant that Walker was seeing the natural creation of lightning for the first time. It was a perfect storm for him to learn. Unfortunately, this was not the place to learn. Not that he would miss the chance to learn something. Just by extending his senses he was learning.

The fire elemental mana was coming from the top of the clouds. But reaching out with his mind, Walker could feel that the fire mana was built up from the sun hitting the dense dark clouds. The wind generated was making the wind react and in turn the wind made the water react. All of these reactions mixed the two and made lightning form. It was a wondrous feeling.

Just understanding this movement all around them made Walker better able to grasp some mana as it came by him. If he couldn't mobilize all of the natural mana, he would mobilize parts as the mana shift around him. He wouldn't be in complete control, but he would be able to change the course of things.

"Are you ready?" Alma felt Walker place a hand on her shoulder. He was starting to pull mana toward him and make it condense around them. The contact with Alma allowed him to sense her mana flow so that he could add the natural mana behind her skills.

Since Alma had consumed a few low tier mana potions. She was looking a lot better. The mental stress was being ignored for the time being. The water elves had also moved around them to prevent any accidents. It was a collective feeling that they were needed at the moment while the two prepared their skills.

"Make a cage to redirect the lighting. We can take the secondary arcs, but not the strikes." Walker made sure that Alma heard him over everything. She had already figured this out though. If she were to make a complete dome over every ship, then there would be a major issue. It would burn her mana and fall right apart. It would not be maintained.

"I am going to channel my mana in to these seeds. I will send people to place them around all the ships!" This was the small caveat to the entire plan. It depended on everyone moving ship to shop through the storm. Not many people were able to do that.

The harder grasp on both Alma's and Walker's arms made them look over. They found Scylla who had Leon right with her. She had seen Walker moving and knew that he was working on a plan. Without a single second of hesitation, she had grabbed the strongest to help too. Behind her were Terron, Mordant, Ignus, and Rise. It was completely unexpected.

"Take the seeds. Alma has added her mana to them. We will make them grow. Just spread them ahead of us. We are making a cage!" That was all they needed to hear as each took a handful of wild bull kelp seeds. They had no intention of letting these ships sink.

Other than the fact that the dragonkin that followed them were on these ships, the dragons were prideful. How could they fail to defend against a simple storm? How could they be so weak that a storm at sea would defeat them completely? That would make them the lowest of the low when it came to dragon history. That would make them just pathetic worms in comparison of the greatness left behind for them to follow.

The royal dragons were tough enough to fly no matter the wind. Even if they pushed themselves a little, they could tough out the hardest gusts and the larger waves. Even Terron knew that he could fly through it all. He was a dragon, even though his affinity was earth, flying was a natural aspect for them. His wings had formed before he could even understand what they were!

The seeds left Alma and Walker in their hands. But through the connection of her mana, Alma could sense them all. It was like they were an extension of herself. But that was the nature of her skill at the end of the day. She could mix her mana with the plant she chose and make it grow rapidly. That wasn't just temporary though, she could leave them living in the state the altered them as she wanted. She was truly part of nature herself.

"Walker, they all just hit the water. As long as the ships stay in formation I can keep the kelp here." Alma felt a reassuring squeeze. Walker had no mind to speak right now. Before he had been training, he had been able to split his attention. That was all and good, but now, he had to focus everything he had on the mass of natural mana he had gathered.

The storm seemed to be trying to tear away the natural mana again. It was still changing the manas around them. The water, fire, and wind manas were pulling at his attention but completely blocked every time they tried to break up the natural mana. The major effect that Walker had over everything was purely from his training and skills. If he lacked a single one he would be lost here in the ocean.

"Guided overgrowth!" Alma shouted the skill she was about to use. She wanted every single person around her to be warned that she was using a skill that would have a large effect. It was a warning so that they avoided any issues that came with it. To make sure that they avoided the lightning that might come off the wild bull kelp.

Feeling the influx of natural mana around her made Alma grind her teeth. The seeds soaked up every bit of mana that suddenly hit her as if they were endless voids. The skill would normally be used as a last result since she knew that overgrowing a plant was risky to its life. Yet, what was the point of holding a trump card here? Never using it to protect others meant that it was a waste to have.

The waters churned in the waves around the ships as they reached the locations of the wild bull kelp seeds. There were tendrils of watery roots that snaked out away from the ships to direct the lightning toward the outer ocean around them. The long and large wild bull kelp stalks shot up with unparalleled strength. Normally they would flop over, however, they were braiding around each other forming a massive framework cage. It covered the entire area of the ships' formation.

Everyone knew who was using this skill. There was only one person that could manipulate plants like this on any ship. Their respect for Alma had always been there, unfortunately, Alma had never used her skills like this in front of so many. She had always used smaller scale skills and kept herself with some mana to ensure that she was able to give orders after.

"You have all the mana you need! Don't stop!" Walker roared out and forced more control over the natural mana. He would not let the skill drop until the storm blew over. Even with the rumbling from the sky, he didn't blink. Even seeing the first flash of lightning getting closer, he did not hesitate.
