Master Of None

A glance back showed Walker the round patch of sand and coral that had been taken over by writhing razor whip weed. Alma floated in the water above it with her eyes closed. Three enforcers constantly shot arrows at nearby groups of kraken luring them in to their doom. The kraken spawn were not smart to say the least. The annoyance of an arrow harming one of them made the harmed one charge at the source. The others would chance the one that was harmed for food causing groups to rush in to the razor whip weed Alma controlled to flail about and slice them up. 

Midnight Was easily tearing one of the kraken apart with her claws. Walker saw her use her wings to push herself forward much faster before she folded them and extended her claws to a finishing move. She had already developed a sound strategy in just a few moments of battle. Adding that to her swimming ability that had shown itself by copying the water dragons, she had become a force to be reckoned with. 

”I am with you.” One dragonkin larger than some of the other growled slightly and a team of six other dragonkin warriors backed Walker as he swam forward. The seven of them slashed out at nearby kraken. The eternal orb had mimicked the twin blitz swords but with a twist. 

The sight of Leon using the water as a thrown blade had made him jealous. Therefore, when the eternal orb changed form, Walker channeled the water elemental mana in to each slash while he swam. The result was a powerful attack that easily cut through the kraken. But it was not the same. He was not like Leon who could cut through groups in one slash with his spear. 

The problem that Walker realized was that he was using the basic thrown blade skill he had learned much earlier. He needed to condense the water elemental mana just like Leon’s spear did. ”Stop!” Walker caught himself and the dragonkin formed up on him right before a slightly larger kraken spawn whipped out a barbed tentacle at them. 

”Ohh, we have a fat one. That’s some good feasting meat there.” The dragonkin were fired up and let out a chorus of growls. Walker couldn’t lie and say that he wasn’t feeling the energy end instinctual force. He knew that if he used the dance of the wild rabbit here he would end up in the dance or the rabid rabbit easily, Yet, this was the water. His movement techniques wouldn’t work. He couldn’t even fathom whether the dance of seasons would work here. 

The thought barely crossed Walker’s mind as he stepped forward after sinking to the sand. He pushed off and condensed the water elemental mana around the eternal or blades. He raised the blades above his head and slashed down in an arc. The water elemental mana left the blade causing the water around all of them to become turbulent for just a moment. 

”One hit one kill! Follow the royals to battle!” The shout from the dragonkin riled more up nearby until shrowls and shouts of victory were echoing around the nest. Walker had just cleaved the larger kraken spawn in two with a single blow. He had felt the water elemental mana flow beneath his feet to be similar to a stepping stone. He had felt the water elemental mana condense on the blades. He had felt it all work to flow properly. 

’The skill blade stream has been taken from the One with water system. The skill blade stream has been partially learned due to unique skill restrictions.

Blade stream- 1-500 mana cost

The one with water system allows one being to reach a perfect balance with water. Most beings with this system remain within the spiritual water domain. The user is able to manipulate water using varying amounts of mana. The blade stream skill allows multiple moves to be learned that mimic the flow of water and its cycles. The user can only use the skill at its lowest level. Mastery of this skill is impossible for the current user. The skill cost more mana depending on the move used.’ 

There was what Walker would describe as an impenetrable wall that blocked his mind from understanding the all and what it meant. As much as he wanted to know it, this was not the time or the place to understand it. Instead, Walker took it for what it was and focused on the kraken spawn around him. This skill could wait until he was able to look in to what being one with water and the spiritual water domain meant. 

”Push forward! The nest is ours to take!” Walker shouted then roared with all his might. The skill dragons’ intimidation did not consume a great amount of mana but had a wide effect. His actions caused the warriors around to freeze ever so slightly. But the greatest reaction came front he kraken spawn which became erratic and fearful. 

The translucent eggs that lay around the nest were the same size as Walker’s chest. They pulsed slightly with the kraken spawn waiting to escape and destroy the oceans. The mana around the nest seemed to be denser and coming from the small cave at the very center. Walker wanted to investigate but the sight of hundreds, maybe even thousands of kraken eggs was making him focus more. 

The dragonkin warriors spread out and were viciously destroying the eggs as fast as possible. These actions attracted the kraken spawn nearby to try and eat the broken eggs, but the other forces had been working toward the nest as well and they were close enough to keep the kraken spawn at bay. 

”We are going to pick up the pace no-” Walker’s voice was drowned out by a screech that vibrated the water and his very bones. The mother kraken was back and she was livid.
