Master Of None

Latching on to the water elemental mana was the easiest part. Walker had the knowledge and the strength to do that at any time. The very reason was the seemingly endless water all around them. That meant that there would be a very powerful source of water elemental mana wrapped around whatever Walker wanted it to latch on to until he was done with what he needed to do.

The tough part was that walker had to hold the natural mana between himself and the small amount of earth mana that he had already gathered from Terron and Su's training. Even though there was not much of it to spare, Terron had used some to demonstrate the skills that he wanted Su to strive after.

She had seen the stone skin skill and noted that it made the scales on Terron seemed to be covered in a hardened clay type stone. It would definitely reduce any damage taken while also making it harder to break defenses overall.

The iron and steel skin skills were much tougher. Su had seen these two used by the dragonkin warriors. She had felt her shields bounce off them and have to work triple as hard to cut through them. Deflecting and straight out blocking skills using these two skills was exactly what Su thought would be best.

That was until Su saw Terron use the diamond skin skill. It was the highest skill that he had been able to reach as the royal earth ancient dragon. He had worked years to perfect it when he was younger. Now he was willing to show it to Su.

Terron's scales had become reflective and clear like diamonds. Every single little facet appeared to be able to block and deflect anything that was thrown at him. Su knew that diamonds could break under the right conditions, all gems could. However, she had a feeling that the diamond skin skill was remarkably different. There was an entire aura of unbreakable strength that appeared around Terron when he used the skill.

Furthermore, the earth elemental mana that was used when Terron showed off the skill was surprisingly low. Because of Su's relationship to earth and her spirit marks, it made her able to sense the usage of earth mana much better. Add on the fact that Terron was willingly letting her see the entire process and Su was able to feel how well trained Terron truly was. Every little bit of mana made the skill work perfectly without any flaws. It was a true pinnacle of the skill at the moment.

With all of this, Su would be able to try and reach a level that would make her defenses nearly impossible to damage. That would make her the real draconic guardian she wanted to be. Not to mention the additional skills that she would be able to use from other elemental manas. Those would just keep healing, defending, and even replenishing mana if she continued to study different defensive skills from other elemental dragons and dragonkin.

The moment that Walker started to pull on the natural mana between the earth and water elemental manas, Terron and Su were hyper focused on him. They could feel their own manas reacting to this.

Not many people were able to grasp natural mana in general. That alone made them a focal point in many places and normally noted down in history. At this moment, the reason was clear, because they could grasp all mana and cause it to react in calm or violence.

Not that they didn't know this. However, they could both feel the violence that the natural mana was causing. The fire elemental mana and the light elemental mana that broke free first was causing a lot of heat and blinding light in the darker depths of the ship that Terron had been calling home.

This change in the air was enough to cause even more mana to start reacting. The wind and the darkness mana broke free causing torrents of damaging mana to surround Terron and Su. these violent manas would normally not be around. It was intense and forced both Terron and Su to actively resist them.

Terron had a lot of natural defenses. He was an earth dragon. They represented the hardest to harm and the toughest dragons overall. This alone was why he had resistances to almost every elemental mana there was. Magical attacks were hard to damage him with. Physical attacks were even harder to damage him with.

But with the natural mana being torn out of balance right beside him, Terron felt that he was being challenged by the world itself. Every single little bit of violent mana that touched him made his body feel like it was being bombarded. That was perfect, he grinned like a wild beast. "I will become much stronger now!"

Gaining training in his elemental resistances was unexpected. He believed that just Su would gain this benefit. Especially since she was so weak at the moment compared to other draconic guardians or dragons in general. What Terron did not expect was that Su would be sitting in the middle of it all with her eyes closed. She was taking every wave of mana and every bit of pain it might cause without even flinching. She was a monster among guardians.

If Terron knew that Su was in much more pain and turmoil than she looked, he might not believe it. Down at the deepest levels of her being, Su felt that she was being attacked. The manas were sweeping through her body in ways that she had never imagined. But she could feel her blood boiling again. It was just what she needed to bring about the changes that had been slowly accumulating.

The dragon blood was glad to have this. To have the manas stressing the body it lived in. to feel the changes that could come upon the body it existed in. Su could sense this. She could tell that she would be much stronger just by sitting there.

Walker, on the other hand, felt mental stress like no other. The manas were under his control to a degree. He could feel that they were not going to harm him. Some of the manas even wrapped around him as if they were blocking the other waves of mana from touching his skin. The only manas that didn't do anything were the earth and water manas.

As the earth was pulled and gathered on one side of Walker, he could feel the water elemental mana gathering as well. It was dense and gathered much faster. Especially since the other elemental manas had been made violent out of unbalanced natural mana breaking down around them.

All the natural mana that Walker had gathered was suddenly broken. The violent manas reacted all around. Darkness, wind, fire, and light were all out of balance. Water and earth were the only two under control. The only two that had been forced to gather and sit calmly within their own bubble of Walker's mana from his body. The rest of the elemental manas had to be dissipated. And the only way to do that was by traveling through Su, Teron, and Walker outside the ship.

The runes on the ship seemed to work as a catalyst for this. They trapped the manas and used them as fuel. It was an unexpected benefit to the entire situation. Walker had not expected that the manas would act as fuel and also train Terrona and Su. But after remaining in the same position for over an hour he managed to open his eyes and look at the two.

"I have some earth elemental mana here for you." Walker's breathing was heavy and his head felt like he had just been hit over and over with a club.

"And I will be taking the water elemental mana there from you. It might be all around us, but that is very concentrated." Current couldn't let the water elemental mana get away. He had sensed all the elemental mana reacting around Walker and noticed that there was condensed water elemental mana just here on the ship waiting for him.

"Take it and leave, you are in the way of training a guardian. Unless you have some skills you wish to impart too?" Terron had thought this would push Current away from interrupting them. However, it seemed Current had actually wanted this attention.

"In that case, I will join you. This little guardian has lacked a true skill from the water elemental side of life for a while. Walker has one and his champion has one. How could I be so cruel as to let the guardian miss out?" Current was clearly messing with Terron but the stubbornness Terron had was not shaken in the least.

"Can you both take the mana? I need to stop this." Walker released control of the two manas and immediately fell back flat on the ground. He was done with everything for the moment. Breaking natural mana apart was much tougher than making it. He had been a fool to think it would be doable at such a large scale.
