Master of none

It wasn't just the fact that the arrow had suddenly burst with wind mana to cause its speed to move three times faster than what the true wind sage had expected. It was the fact that the mana had gathered in a single breath from Gil.

That sort of skill and focus was too great for what he would expect from someone in the world.

The world's mana was thinner and less pure than what was within the elemental planes.

There was no way that Gil should have been able to be so precise with his control over the wind mana he used in the arrow. Let alone around the arrow to boost its speed.

"I can fire another one." Gil was already grabbing an arrow with a slight red color on the arrow shaft.

His eyes were focused again, this time though, the true wind sage was actually focusing

Too.

He had been surprised.

He had not expected that Gil would be weaker than what he had been talked up to be. Not just because of the lacking mana within the world but simply because they had come to the elemental planes and worked together to get through them.

They were not individually strong, just as a party.

However, that was feeling very wrong right now.

Gil had just gathered extra wind mana in a single breath to speed up an arrow. Something that takes a lot of precision ad training.

Meaning that Gil was much stronger than he looked. Also that he had a lot of experience hinting in this fashion.

Predators were the ones that would learn to hide themselves until the last second without releasing a single shred of mana like that. ηovel.

"You might be better than what i thought." The true wind sage laughed a little, but it didn't feel like a happy laugh.

More of an annoyed laugh. Not that Gil realized the annoyance was from the fact that the true wind sage had underestimated someone.

Zephyr on the other hand, was having a complete freak out. She was watching the two get in to a fight and she knew the dangers of that.

The true wind sage was powerful. He could cause a lot of damage.

But Gil, he was using more dangerous arrows now. He had a fire arrow which was familiar to her since she had watched him make it.

"I wonder how much that body will be burned up by flames." Gil's soft mumble still reached the true wind sage.

He could watch it travel through the wind mana to him before the soft twang of a bow releasing an arrow was heard.

This time, Gil hadn't released a single hit of wind mana before he fired.

The level of control that this took proved that Gil was not as weak as the true wind sage had originally believed. Regardless of the true wind sage's belief that Gil had been talked up too much by Zephyr, he was somehow feeling foolish now.

The true wind sage had gone and believed that all the talk was way over the top. Not at all that this was actually being humble on Zephyr's part and was allowing the true wind sage the mistake of underestimating the skills that Gil had developed overall.

Before the arrow went any further past the true wind sage, it burst in to a ball of flames which rapidly consumed the air around it. The wind mana was forced to become bonded with it before a large plume of flames erupted upwards.

The force was a shocking but no one else was around since Gil trained himself in privacy. This was all due to the dangers of creating arrows.

Gil managed to make some of the strongest arrows to match the arcane archer class he possessed. This was leaving a risk that if the process failed mana could chaotically harm others.

Let alone the chance that he tested an arrow and caused damage.

The true wind sage had not expected that Gil was actually trying to cause this explosion of fire and consume the wind mana as well.

It forced the true wind sage to use even more mana than what he would have expected to use in a situation while within Genesis.

"You aren't that strong at all for a true sage of any kind.

My arrows can handle you." Gil's tone was devoid of anything.

It was simply because of hsi level of intense focus when it came to using true archery skills which he had honed beyond that of any other elf right now.

"Ha! You managed to burn up part of the body I condensed to come here.

I nearly lost control of this wind. That was impressive.

You should come to the wind elemental planes too. I have plenty to show you that you can learn from.

What do you say!?"

Now this unexpected change was something that made Gil break from his focussed state. He was still very angry about the arrow which had broken due to the true wind sage's unexpected appearance, but right now he was wondering just why he would go to the wind elemental planes right now.

"I have plenty of things to do here. And I thought that Zephyr would have already gone there to gain strength."

he looked at Zephyr who was clearly worrying over him. Gil knew that this was her trying to make sure that nothing bad happened since she knew exactly the level of strength that the true wind sage had.

"I am sure you do. That young one told me plenty about how you are always active in your small gathering here.

But what if you studied the denser wind manas which could create entirely new areas of the elemental planes. Changing the very flow of wind as it was.

Would you like that? You can focus your affinities and heighten a natural affinity." The true wind sage clearly was interested in what made Gil able to use arrows in the ways he did.

But it was more than that. The way that Gil moved wind mana and used it had been taught to him by Zephyr.

Not in words, but by feeling. They had bonded before Gil even knew that there was a thinking wind spirit within the bow he had used.

As such, their bonding was above and beyond a level of proper understanding.

They had not needed speech to understand the flow of one another's manas.

As such, they were able to manipulate wind mana slightly different from those that learned through traditional training. Even more so, they could use it to a better speed and potency than most people.

"Zephyr, even if it is because of the wind mana and the way that mana is used by me and you, I am not just abandoning things to go there for days on end. What if I am away for months or a year?" Zephyr had clearly not realized that the leave could be for months and years.

She did not intend for that length of time to pass.

"Time is just a slight issue for people who gain strength in this way.

If you come to meet elves within the elemental planes, you will understand that lifespan for your race is much greater than what any of you realize."

"What do you mean by lifespan?" Gil knew that the elven race lived very long.

That was expected to increase with the magic tower, rune formations, and various other aspects related to health within genesis. That was the same for other races as well as the elves.

"Well, the elven race when focused properly and provided with the right kind of mana within the elemental planes can live for over a thousand years. They can even grow to rival dragons.

While that is the smaller number of them, it is possible."

"And If I come, can you share knowledge like that with me so I can return within a single month? Things change very quickly here.

If I am gone for longer than that, I will miss too much. I also have family here.

More than just what you have met. I will have a future here."

Gil was referring to alma who he had noticed had appeared on a nearby tree with various elven guards. She was staying away but when Gil spoke he made sure she could hear him.

"Then you will be showing more of the way you use wind mana to me. You will not get to rest.

You will then be responsible for guiding the races that I deem fit to come to this city. This dragon will also be your focus.

You will be responsible for guarding her." The true wind sage had set up his game board.
