Master Of None



To their surprise, the wandering blacksmith took the twin shield right from Su. They witnessed him begin to work. The actions he had taken to prepare the materials were seamless. It only took him two hours to reshape and attach the new materials and parts of the twin shields. 

Now Su could tell that these twin shields would seamlessly adjoin with her armor. The gauntletts had been styled after claws. But those claws also had attaching rune formations on them. Therefore, that was how the manas flowed better throughout her armor and shields. 

From there, Su was amazed. The scale pattern had been added to the existing twin shields with even more details. It also kept the weight and added more functions. Specifically, when she slammed them together, two outer sides would expand to make the shield even larger. This meant that she would be able to protect more. 

There was a also a retracting feature that could be activated with earth mana and Su's mana. This would allow them to more easily attach to the armor and be used as a weapon. Su needed such a thing for her style. She was immensely impressed when it came to the wandering blacksmith's foresight in this matter. Especially since she had barely mentioned details about her fighting style changing. 

Neither Su nor the wandering blacksmith asked Walker for the all around appraisal. Alcie and Midnight just watched in interest while having a snack in the background. They were enjoying this experience as a way to see the amazing things that had been going on while their attention as elsewhere. Not to mention that itn appeared Alice and Midnight had found themselves a new favorite snack. 

When Walker had asked, he found that they had managed to find a new fruit from the elven forest, apparently they were called moon blessed grapes. It sounded like some magical process, but apparently they were grapes that were covered and only allowed to get moonlight during the night. 

Thies led to them having a very unique sweet taste that was very different from the deeper brighter flavor that they normally had. It became a very popular seasonal fruit for many people when the elves began to sell it in the market. So much sop that some dwarves had reached out to begin making unique wines and alcohols with them. A very large event for some. 

Regardless, when Su saw the twin shield next to the armor, she did not hesitate to put them all on and have the wandering blacksmith make small adjustments here and there. She was enjoying the lighter feeling and how the wandering blacksmith was able to make the adjustments for her slightly larger muscles and wings. Becoming a full fledged half dragon had changed some things. 

"Need to see it in battle." without another word, everyone looked at Su then to Walker. They all wanted to see what new tricks that Su had and they knew very well that walker was the best opponent. 

While Alcie and Midnight could fight Su, she could take Alice down faster than would be expected to truly test things. Midnight was also too vicious and might not control her strength causing too much damage to the new armor or shields. This wasn't because Midnight could not control her strength, but because she was trying to adapt to the dragonkin from battle styles still and it was a little risky to train all out as they needed. 

Without even being able to say anything, Walker made a move. He glanced at the forge furnaces and wanted to meditate, however, when he reached out a hand, the eternal codex shifted. 

Instead of the normal staff form, it altered itself and became a staff with a shield on it. A smaller shield that was made from the starving steel. A perfect way to block and take away mana from incoming attacks while dishing out magical attacks. "This might be a mage weapon you should make for each elemental mana. Just saying." 

"Don't need money. Blueprints though." the wandering blacksmith nodded a little realizing that it could be an interesting thing to do. The magical staffs were something that he normally did not focus on. However, he might be able to learn some other technique to create them at a higher level. A potential way to learn about other manas rather than elemental. Especially when life mages came asking for healing gear. 

This aside, Walker was surprised to find that he wasn't being led outside. When they had been away, the wandering blacksmith had a larger training and testing area built underground! 

This idea was excellent. Anyone that had ordered something could test it all right there underneath the shop. The dwarves that had been hired even reinforced it with many layers of rune formation carved metals. Furthermore, some magical skills had been used on it as well. So many layers that even Walker would struggle to easily cut through it all and cause a collapse. But they were still reminded to hold back in their fight. This was to force Su to understand her improved shield and new armor. 

With their awe of a brand new testing area out of the way, Walker called the manas toward him. He felt that he was in touch with mana much more closely. The eternal codex was assisting him, but also still absorbing the additional mana that Walker could not control. He was not wasting any mana whatsoever any more in his mana manipulation. The eternal orb could use it!

Yet, when he noticed Su stretching a little, Walker realized she would be moving much more differently than what he remembered her battle style to be. Even though he had witnessed her being more aggressive and forward in battle before. This was because he noticed her flexibility had increased much more compared to her before she fully accepted the dragon blood that was part of her. 

Before they faced off, Walker saw that Su was in a defensive stance. The first attack would allow him to see just what she had changed when it came to her strength. Therefore, he stopped preparing himself to fight as a mage. Instead, he focused on the eternal codex and chose to use a two handed ax. A heavier weapon that would test her defenses and strength. 

Using wind mana, the ax spun upwards as Walker took preparation to swing it down. Earth mana gathered on the way down with walker's leap forward being enhanced by the wind as well. He felt that the mana was acting much faster to his mental manipulation than ever before. It didn't throw him off, but actually made him feel even more comfortable. 

The weight of the eternal codex two handed ax form made the entire place ring with the sound of metal. The mana around Su was drawn in to it, but there was now reaction otherwise. Su's feet were pressed in to the stone floor slightly, but that was it. "Oh." 

Walker felt himself slammed back to where he had started his attack. Su had only used one arm to both block and retaliate. She didn't even appear to feel the shock. "You will need more than that to affect me now." Walker grimaced as Su taunted him. He would not normally feel her taunts, but now, he could feel what their opponents always felt when facing her. 

She stomped on the ground causing it to slightly shake. This would have made Walker lose his footing, but he stepped right in to the air. He did not let Su keep pushing forward. He had to keep her on her toes instead of setting up an attack on him. 

However, Su jumped upwards and threw one of the twin shields at him. The result was Walker needing to use a lot of wind mana to force it to slow down while he dodged. This left him open to Su kicking upwards. Walker had not realized that Su could use her newly grown wings already to push herself upwards faster than before. It was a surprise of many emotions. 

When her other twin shield hit him, Walker had used mana to boost his defenses. A small bubble of water had formed around him a second before she attacked and it froze solid. This bubble shattered and left Walker with ammunition to attack. The shards of ice attacked her causing Su to be buffeted but not damaged. Her armor vibrated with mana before some of the ice was shot back at her. 

'Then speed." Walker changed the eternal codex in to twin swords. But he attacked them with a  chain of metal to one another. His mind was trying to think of ways to stress Su and her new battle styles. Any trick and unconventional means he could think of would be used.
