Master Of None



Using wind mana to push him faster while also using a little earth mana to make the ground start to change ti sand, Walker pushed forward. He knew that he had much more speed than what Su could keep up with. His agility had almost always been faster. 

Yet, he found that Su was now keeping up with him. She had lighter armor. She had better shields. She had more strength as a half dragon than before. Her entire journey had strengthened her and allowed for her to accept herself. To awaken what was held back. 

She easily drew her shields up to deflect not one, but both of the blades coming from opposite sides. Walker had first started to make Su move and get her off set. He wanted to see her pushed to the point of her fastest speed before he let himself off the hook. That was why he held back his body and focused on using wind to push himself faster. He was clearly baiting her. 

Unfortunately for him, Walker had still underestimated Su. she saw through this trick and managed to attack back. He used the end of one twin shield to slash at him while using the other as a brace to allow her to kick upwards with balance. 

This ingenious addition to her fighting style was what would allow her to keep opponents questioning what she could do. She clearly surprised Walker with a solid kick to the chest. However, she had not realized that he was also playing his own tricks with ideas he had come up with while they fight. 

Walker had willed the eternal codex to take the shape of twin swords, not because they matched what Su was using as twin shields, but because he knew that the eternal codex, just as it had before modification, would keep the swords attached to one another in some form. It was just easier to transfer mana that way and helped him. 

When he had done this, he had the idea that he might be able to use his agility and that fact to his advantage to trip Su up and catch her off guard. He was right. 

Wahne Walker landed, he rolled on to his feet using his natural strength at full speed. He burst forward. He also had a gust of wind push against Su to make her think that he was using wind alone just like last time. But his change in speed shocked her slightly but did not stop her from reacting. 

Yet, when she went to block the similar attack she expected, she found that a sword was spinning upwards at her attached to the chain of starving steel. This had been what attacked the two swords together and what Walker used to lengthen his attacking abilities. 

Going with the flow, Walker spun the swords again with his arm between the two and putting force on the chain. He had witnessed someone use a weapon with a sickle at the end in a similar way. While risky to use it here, this was a sparring match and he wanted to diversify his abilities. 

'The user has replicated a unique style of fighting used by a smaller margin of people than many other weapons. Due to the visualization and usage of such technique, the skill, beginner chain manipulation has been learned.

Beginner chain manipulation- passive and active. Mana depends on usage of the skill. 

Using mana or using physical strength, the style of using chains attached to weapons or not is very rare. It could take many years to manipulate and use chains. Even as whips, chains are radically different. 

By using this skill, the learning ability when fighting with chains will be faster. It will be smoother. And the strength of attacks will be better. Using mana may allow the user of this skill to manipulate chains using just their mana to awaken specific technique based skills or more…'

Walker noticed the system mentioning this. He had seen multiple skills like this as he shifted weapons but he mostly ignored them. He didn't even bother to mention them or read them sometimes. But right this second, his brain was running in overdrive to face Su's newfound strength. He did not wish to just test her. He was testing himself and the eternal codex as well. 

When the eternal codex changed again, Su took it as an opening. She charged forward slamming the twin shields together to cause a devastating attack. One that would not allow Walker any room to dodge or attack. It was just another unfortunate event that Walker had actually read one of the minor skill gains from his system for the first time in a while. 

Walker saw the twin shields expand but didn't sweat it in the least. He just smirked through a serious expression as the eternal codex shifted and followed his mana. With his stronger control and better ability to draw manas to him, the chain room of the eternal codex was devastating. 

The chain wrapped Su around her legs completely bypassing the twin shields as they burst aflame. This caused Su to react in an attempt to break them. She wanted to force her way out but found that her mana was being drawn away. He attempted to pull on the earth mana to boost her body more. She tried even more with light mana to heal her and create a better shield without needing to hold on to the twin shields that had slipped from her grasp. But Walker just tightened the chains before releasing them and offering a hand. 

"You made change the way I was thinking before. Your entire being is better than before. Stronger, tougher, and definitely faster, I had to hold back so that it tricked you, but you didn't fall for it. That's why I had to use an unconventional weapon. The starving steel also steals away mana that you try to use. It's way better than I gave it credit for." Walker had been sure that this played a major role in the entire match. 

"So that's why it was hard for me to use other skills. I managed to learn a few different elemental skills since I have the same affinities as Midnight due to our ritual. But I tried to use the light to blind you and make you lose concentration before I made a shield. It didn't work so I had to resort to a shield like before. But that failed too!" 

There was a lot that Su was shocked by, but before the two could keep raving about their new items. The armor and the eternal codex, the wandering blacksmith moved and began adjusting the armor. He also looked at Walker and made him stand still since he would be crafting new armor for him too. Ti was clear that he could use the eternal codex more as a weapon than armor. Therefore, he would need improved armor more than anything in the future. 

Alice and Midnight quietly enjoyed their own talks about the sparring match. Alice wished to train against both of them while Midnight was nearly shaking with excitement. She wanted to see how much stronger Su really was when she fought against her in her dragonkin form. But Alcie also wanted to challenge Su since she had been her most recent training partner. The person that had allowed her to alter her own thinking when it came to how she shaped light in her songs. 

But none of them managed to do this any time soon. The wandering blacksmith clearly was going to keep them busy for some time. Alice had not realized it, but the wandering blacksmith had created armor for her again too. She had to be protected as one of the best large area healers. If she didn't have the best armor she could, then she might not be able to be safe enough to heal anyone. 

Then it switched to Midnight who now needed two different armors. He was even theorizing that he could make armors that might shift with her to her two different forms. Such a thing might be possible using the rune formations and the space runes that had been discovered. But it would take a lot of time and effort. Not that this was new for him or anyone else around him. 

Things only grew more in depth as they started to talk about new skills and how they could adjust themselves to use them in battle. It just added fuel to the wandering blacksmith's imaginative flames. He was constantly changing and editing the blueprints he had in his mind. On top of that, he was digging out new materials he had not had a chance to work with. It was like watching a wild experiment becoming a masterpiece. Well worth a sleepless night…or two.
