Master Of None

"Well, it's a good thing you woke up. You should get back to your ship." Alma was awake before Walker. She had already found that he had fallen asleep meditating and was finally back up standing and moving around.

"I will if I can manage to walk after that. I fell asleep like that for like a million years." Walker was mostly joking but he really did feel like he had been in the same position for way too long. "What happened while I was resting?"

Walker had experienced a lot. So did Alma. However, he had needed the rest. The skills he used to channel large amounts of natural mana that was within the storm were too much on his mind. It wasn't the limits of mana or anything else that had burdened him. Just what his mind could handle.

It all reminded him that he had to keep working to improve himself. He had realized the strain on his mind and was training multiple magic skills at the same time to work on that issue. He needed to make it greater though. Walker knew they could face anything when they got to another continent with unknown races. For all he knew, they could be much more powerful than anything Genesis had faced before.

"Just a few small monsters along the boats. Mostly just the mages being exhausted like you. But you were the one that stole mana from a literal force of nature." Since Alma knew that Walker's role in defending against lightning was the largest, she didn't dance around it too much. He was surely still tired.

"I got two new skills from all that. But I would say what I learned is the most important. Fire, wind, and water making lightning is very hard to handle. I just wonder what things will be like when I can fully understand and control it." This was a small goal. Walker had already seen the danger of a triple elemental monster.

The forest elves had put him in a position to face a single monster capable of creating lightning. It had been tough and pushed Walker to develop better earth related skills. That alone should have been a bigger sign for him to improve his understanding of dangerous elemental fusions. Unfortunately, he had not been in any place to properly do that yet. Now was an ideal time.

The understandings of manas that Walker had were very stable. He had reached a good point that allowed him to more easily manipulate the natural mana around him. If he were to start making more and more fusions of elemental manas, then he would be able to expand his strength to protect others more easily.

"I learned a lot too. Especially when I forced the wild bull kelp to grow past its limits. I have a skill called plant mutation now. It can make one characteristic of a plant a focused point. Like how the wild bull kelp was recovering from the lightning that struck it. It sacrifices one aspect of the plant but it can really help. I just need to learn how to use this properly." Knowing that Ama also gained a lot from working with him made Walker very happy.

"By the way, how is Gil doing over there? A few archers were asking about him. They haven't been able to see what he's working on." Alma tried to be casual, unfortunately for her, Walker could see right through her.

"He has been doing the usual, making arrows and causing some trouble. He has actually been training with Remey a lot. Something about finalizing what he believes to be the high elven dagger techniques. He hasn't said it was right yet though. But I see him practicing while on look out. I think he might just need that little push to fully put it all together. When he has it, I think it will be a very big deal." There was a light in Alma's eyes as Walker said this.

"He also has a few arrows made lately. Something about how he needs to make sure that he has mages that can make arrows if they run out. Most of the time it's the archers that shoot the monsters on the top of the water approaching us. Not that many do, I just know that they do in general." This was less about Gil and more about the archers overall. Walker had seen them working hard to maintain a safety range around all the ships and the entire fleet.

"Ah…you say that the archers on the other ships are worried, mine are as well. The arrows we have seem to dwindle every day. I can have the mages rotate from shop to ship. Having arrows is the same as having an arm for an archer. If they don't have one then they will feel naked against the wolves." Alma had to understand and put her elven fighters first. The archers needed something, so she would act.

"I will tell Gil that you learned a lot. I am sure that he will find a reason to come over here and check on you. It's Gil you know." Walker stepped in to the air and headed for his ship. He could tell that the royal dragons had just been there but he didn't press on that. If he had been manipulating high amounts of natural mana he had surely attracted their attention.

"Oh, awake are we?" Scylla seemed to be laughing at Walker a little. She met him in the air with an open hand. It fell on his head making Walker wonder just what Scylla was doing. "Don't look at me like that. I am much older than you and I see a lot of the human soldiers praising their juniors like this." Walker had done the very same action to Midnight and Onyx and now understood how they felt.

"It's just weird to be in this position now. But, why did you meet me in the air? Do you need help with something?" Scylla shook her head at Walker's question. She didn't seem to have wanted anything other than to tell him he did well.

"That lightning was rough. We all worked to resist the wind and waves. Even the dragons rushed to your side after. I think they learned a little something after you used all those skills with Alma. make sure you speak with them. But until then, stop the two over there from yelling and making your siblings create darkness and fire balls." Scylla smiled sweetly and left Walker to it. He wasn't sure what was going on until he focused his senses.

Walker could sense the darkness and the fire elemental manas being manipulated. It was easy for him to find where Onyx and Midnight were training though. The explosive sounds of their attacks against the water gave him a direct line to the end of the ship. "So this is what Scylla was talking about."

"Good, you are here too. After we finished checking on you we have to come over here and fix these two. They wanted to go in to battle with these weak attacks. Have you not set a proper example for them? Is this how you will teach all the dragon hatchlings I bring to your village?"

Ignus was right in Walker's face. However, Walker could tell that Ignus was in good spirits.

"It isn't that their attacks are weak. They need to focus on their elemental control. They can start the process but not refine it. You should make both of these little ones focus on it. I believe they can create the skills at higher levels if they do." Mordant was right with Ignus. It was very odd seeing the two so perfectly in sync. Walker found himself at an immediate loss for words.

"Well, if they have made progress, they should reflect on it. They might have too much on their minds with what you have taught them." Walker felt the pleading gazes of Midnight and Onyx. he knew that they must have been trained to the end of their strength. It was also clear by their weakened appearances.

Onyx looked like he could curl up and sleep right there. Midnight was barely holding herself up. If they used another attack right there, Walker was sure the pair would be asleep for at least a full day. Even now, they most likely just needed rest and food. "Good idea, I will go to reflect as well. You showed a lot of things to us earlier." Mordant took the chance to head right out.

"And don't let them just sleep. They should reflect carefully. I never want to see such a cold fire ball ever again." Ignus growled this out as he made a direct route for the forge where the fire was strong.

"Alright, that's that. Let's get you two some food and sleep." Onyx and Midnight were immediately relieved of their stress. Walker just had to see what had been going on so far.
