Master Of None



When the dark wave of mana hit Midnight and Remey, the two had taken their best defensive positions, but the force had still landed cleanly. The force had been enough to send the two tumbling and leave clear bruises all over Remey's arms. If Mndight had not deflected some of the attack, then Remey would easily have a broken arm. 

Midnight wasn't looking well either. The attacks had cracked the skeletal armor skill and some of her scales. Her higher resistance and tough scales had taken the attack and lowered the damage. However, she felt every bit of what had affected her. The slight decaying aura that had come with the attack was more potent. 

This affects was because of the death mana mixed in to the attack. It was what left damage that was not being healed as Walker reached out with the heal skill. Therefore, Walker realized that the only way he could erase it was with direct healing using life mana or by using more natural mana to boost his healing. 

Not that this was what Walker was allowed to focus on now. He saw Remey standing up to prepare for another round of attack. Walker himself though, had pushed forward and sent multiple light spikes toward the mummified pharaoh. He had used the light mana that had been relieved by Rise and Alice as fuel since the area was slowly becoming more abundant with such mana as they fought the royal mummies. 

The pharaoh didn't wait for them though. It was already taking a step forward in clear annoyance. The attack from Remey had sent light elemental mana right inside it. This might not have actually affected it, but it had irritated it. The gold bones shined as runes were made clear on them. This was how it had managed to remain full of mana. The throne it had sat on and the bones in its body were carved with the very same runes allowing for the pharaoh to more easily heal itself when attack. 

Without saying a word, Midnight and Remey grasped what Walker's glance told them. He was going to take a direct battle with the mummified pharaoh while they attempted to get to the throne. The issue was, that the partially mummified dragon was fighting Gil and Mordant right around the thrown. It was the guard that the mummified pharaoh had created to guard the throne that held all connection to mana in the entire city. 

"Alice, use your swords to pierce the ground around those mummies." Su's shout to Alice drew a little attention from Walker. He had not realized that they had been fighting so closely next to him. But when he saw Su take a stance and ASlice send two light swords in to the ground, he was impressed. The runes that Alice had slashed by doing so had completely severed the connection that the royal mummy had with the pharaoh.

| The runes along the floor had been the flow of mana allowing for the royal mummies to be able to regenerate. Rise had been making small spikes of light mana while pushing the light mana toward Alice and Su to boost them. When she had managed to sever a lot of them, the strength of the royal mummies had begun to fade. However, now that the fading strength of the runes was evident, Su had told Alice to directly attack the runes. 

This had worked perfectly. It created small spaces where the royal mummies were lured to that didn't allow them to regenerate. Therefore, when Su slammed down with the pointed ends of the shields, they shattered the royal mummy. It fell and began breaking in to smaller and smaller pieces with each strike. It was unable to regenerate right away without the linked mana that it had the entire battle so far. 

The change in how fast the royal mummies were regenerating was noticed by the pharaoh in an instant. It turned toward the three fighting them with darkness mana fluctuating around its hands. Unfortunately, Walker had already stepped in to the air with his staff raised. The eternal orb staff had a heavy amount of natural mana wrapped around it. This might not be an attacking skill, but Walker knew that some of the natural mana would certainly make contact. 

As if to mock him, the mummified pharaoh opened its skeletal wrapped mouth and tried to catch the eternal orb staff form with its teeth. Vicious gold teeth wrapped with liquid like darkness mana seemed to have been created so that the teeth could bite though the hardest of defenses. A way of the mummified pharaoh to attack even stranger opponents. Even more alterations to its own body before it had become what it was today. 

It did not realize that the natural mana would hold its darkness mana off though. The teeth stopped the attack but it also put the mummified pharaoh in a terrible position where it could not stop the royal mummies from being stopped one after the other. It did leave Walker right in the line of attack though. A close range that could not be stopped. 

When the pharaoh realized it had a chance to attack, it raised the odd staff of its own and channeled darkness mana around it. The wrappings on its body also moved to form a sharp black point of mana that could stab in to Walker's body. Something that seemed like it could pierce through dragon's scales as well. 

Feeling the threat, Walker called on the light mana to also attack, but he was also focused on the natural mana he was pushing in to the eternal orb staff form. The natural mana was causing the pharaohs sharpened gold teeth to degrade. As if it was trying to force the entire existence of the mummified pharaoh to return to the natural flow with force now. 

That was important though, Walker could sense the fact that all the manas that made up natural mana were acting to return to the flow. It felt the blockage that was there. In that respect, he knew that natural mana was doing its job. He just had to get the mana in to the pharaoh better than he was now. But that would come at a cost. 

Mordant and Gil couldn't do anything with their position to help walker. They both saw that he was in a stalemate for the moment against it. The battle between the two was enough to make them want to abandon the dragon and fight more. However, they saw Midnight and Remey joining them. If the throne was destroyed, then the pharaoh would be weakened greatly as well. They just had to handle the dragon. 

With their trust in walker taking the lead, Gil and Mordant began adding even more mana to their attacks. However, the results of Gil's constant light elemental arrows entering in to the partially mummified dragon had already shown some results. 

Due to the fact that the wrappings held the smaller bones in place, the partially mummified dragon had relied on them a lot. It needed those bones to move around and also to channel mana. The light elemental arrows had put enough mana inside it that the flow was being interrupted. Small bones were falling off its body because there was not a perfect link between them. They weren't dragon bones so why would dragon bones adhere to them? 

That left one thing for them to do, to attack now or else the light mana would be filtered outside the partially mummified dragon's body and it would regenerate properly. 

Mordant made his move to push close. His claws growing with darkness mana much more condensed than before. Every tendril of shadow or darkness that mordant had used to halt the dragon a moment ago absorbed back to him. 

Gil also dashed forward. His bow exchanged for his daggers as he decided to use as much mana in the high elven dagger technique as possible. They had to halt this dragon permanently so that Remey and Midnight could make their move. 

Both Remey and Midnight hard noticed this ,move too. They ignored the dragon that had turned to look at them and was about to release a darkness breath attack. They trusted that Mordant and Gil had the strength to keep that from happening. Even with their bodies injured, Remey was certain that she and Midnight would crush some black gold throne covered in runes. It would just take the right punch. 

"Attack it now!" Rise growled out as she sent a large amount of light elemental mana to cover Remey's fists. The light affinity knuckles even started to crack under the large force of light mana that it could not handle. The royal mummies were more or less handled, the partially mummified dragon was about to be slashed by Gil and Mordant's powerful moves, and the mummified pharaoh was stuck with Walker who was trying to figure out how to inject natural mana in to its body. Nothing was looking to be perfect, but it was moving.
