Master Of None

Walker could feel the mana that Miranda was adding stop pushing on the elemental mana for a moment. It instead started to spread itself thinly over the entire crystal sword. This slowed the rotation of the elemental mana as if it was being weighed on. Miranda had started to sweat a little but her face was less pale. The pressure on her had started to decrease after she started to focus on the crystal instead of the elemental mana. 

Her mana slowly became part of the crystal aspect of the sword and in less than ten minutes it had become bonded. This allowed Walker to be able to speed up the rotation and flow of the elemental mana.

Miranda flinched as the elemental mana pushed at her again but using her newly created bond with the crystal she was able to push back as an equal. The mana began to flow through the entire blade and even exchange with Miranda herself. She began to feel that she was a true elemental spell sword instead of just one that used the elements.

Walker took his hands away suddenly making Alma jump. She had not expected him to stop but he had felt it was the right moment. Miranda had no awareness of this and was struggling still. Walker saw that she was pushing more and more with her own mana as the elemental mana in the sword expanded. 

Within moments of Walker ending his influence, the perfect crystal magic sword changed appearance. It became full of more elemental mana than it had before by pulling it in from the air. The crystal resonated with Mirandas’ heart beat and she stood tall holding the sword in her hands. The blood on her hand melted in to the sword and her wound healed itself. 

With the training room returned to the natural order of calm everyone watched Miranda for her next move. Alma had also stepped back and was staring intently at Miranda, ”Have you finished the process of bonding?” Her voice held a pressure she had not exhibited before other than when she spoke in front of the queen. 

No sooner had she closed her mouth did the elemental mana from the sword begin to fluctuate and demonstrate its power. Mirandas’ eyes flashed open and a bright smile showed on her face, she almost looked hungry. ”I wish to demonstrate my mastery skill that I have learned. Or would you like me to wait?” She looked for Almas’ approval since it was a devastating attack. 

”I am here children.” The voice of the queen shocked the elves in the room and the vines began to form a dense wall. There was a large training dummy forming in the training room along with multiple enforcers entering. ”I must thank you all for your hard work, I was notified that a major breakthrough had occurred and I wished to see it.” The queen was again walking with the use of the vines. It was an extremely important appearance. 

”You have been a constant surprise since you entered the kingdom, your friends as well.” The queen was very impressed by Walker and his Party’s actions. Her gaze landed on Midnight who was close to Walker but then drifted to Onyx. It appeared that she was understanding something but didn’t speak.

The vines the queen had controlled had made the toughest looking training dummy yet. It had pieces of the other dummies held within and could take any hit from any mage present. ”I recommend all that are present retreat behind my commanding spell sword before she tests her new attack for the first time.” 

The mages scrambled to follow the queen’s words and Alma rushed to her side. With everyone out of the way, Miranda started to gather mana around her. ”This will take a little time and will be hard to use while in battle. But it will be the strongest attack I can use. I already know the requirements and draw backs.” 

The queen was listening intently as small vines rose around all those who were watching. Walker noticed that Onyx hadn’t moved and the queen was encasing him in vines as well. He wanted to shout out to him but the queen was giving him a reassuring smile. Walker decided to trust the queen and leave Onyx as is. 

”I can use this as long as I have the proper elemental mana built up. I will need a full day to replenish it and during that day I can not move a muscle and will require a guardian.” Miranda said this drawback and many of the mages started to whisper. This was very similar to the drawbacks they have heard about when a master elemental mage uses their skill. 

Walker was comparing this to the other mastery skills he had seen thus far and thought it was not a major drawback. She could be limited to the skill only being used once a month, but when he considered that Miranda was in essence completely vulnerable for a full day he realized it was very dangerous. Any enemy could pick her off in that time. 

”My young mages and spell swords. Please use any defensive skills in front of us so that we are sure to protect our guests and ourselves.” The enforcers that had come with the queen kneeled in front and presented their shields in a solid wall formation behind the vines. They were well prepared to defend against large magical attacks. 

”Let me help a little as well.” Walker used his multi buff spell on those watching which increased their abilities to defend. It made them all look over and relax more. They didn’t want to get injured from the testing of a new skill but knew they couldn’t be reckless. The change in mana signaled that it was time for Miranda to activate her skill.
