Master Of None

”So, we need to gather elemental mana for our partners?” Remey knew this was a possibility. She was used to the fact that her partner needed mana. But she had never had to exhaust both her and the alchemy fire spirit’s mana. Now that it had grown and was named Azar. ”Azar might need more rest. I still feel the new spirit marks are off.”

”I know. But we can help with that. The natural mana is what connected us. I can tell that with more natural mana I can help settle things. Gil should understand the feeling too. He should be able to guide you two a little more.”

”I had an idea that you wanted me for this.” Gil could tell that the spirit marks on his body were better settled than what Su and Remey had. Their spirit marks were still slightly visible whereas Gil’s spirit mark was invisible until in use. That was the difference that came with the advanced spirit mark for someone named as an avatar of a named grand elemental spirit.

”I can still feel the earth around me. The mana is everywhere. It’s just hard to grasp. I feel like it’s even harder to feel other elemental mana though. I know I can because of my bonds with my system and Midnight, but I’m not sure I will be able to grasp them as easily as earth.”

Walker had expected this struggle for Su. ”I have trouble grasping all elemental mana at the same time. Calling on natural mana is ten times harder for me. Natural mana is the combination of all mana. It’s not my affinity. You have earth affinity now. That’s what happens with your relationship with Alvaro. But you also have affinity for other elemental manas. You can learn them and by fusing them you will have better strength.”

The idea that Su would be able to use elemental mana in attacks other than small things was great. She wanted to try and do more with it but knew that her body would need to adjust first. ”So Su will be able to make lava shields and maybe even other cool things? Will she be able to use wind and sand to make shields against arrows?”

The points and ideas that Remey brought up were very inspiring. Su had just started to think about the future of her skills. With this, she would be able to plan out her growth better. ”I think I will be able to. I have seen the wind act that way for Gil and Walker to combine elemental manas. But I know I will never have the control over other elemental manas in comparison to my strength with earth.”

”That’s exactly it. When I gained my control of wind and my affinity enhanced, I felt that it was harder to make other elemental arrows. I even struggle with overcharging them to make more powerful attacks.” Gil pulled the arrows out one by one. The wither spike arrows were still his main choice. They had multiple elemental manas within.

”This is the wind arrow, see how it reacts to me just holding it?” The wind seemed to move around the arrow slightly. It was enough to move the grass in the ground where Gil was placing it. ”That doesn’t happen with the fire arrow unless I really focus. My mind needs to be clearer than with wind.” The fire wither spike arrow didn’t show any reaction until Gil had touched it for a few seconds. Then a small wisp of steam came off it where it burned grass.

”Midnight struggled with other elemental manas too. She had an affinity for darkness elemental mana at first. That was the easiest king of fire for her to use after we trained. The black flame breath was easily made in to the decaying flame breath. The other flame breath attacks are harder for her to use and not to the same strength. They have been catching up though. She doesn’t think I see her training them.” Walker knew that Midnight would secretly train these skills. Especially when she took the night watch with Gil.

”Now, focus on the elemental mana around you. I am going to try to pull natural mana around us so we can recover. Then I will need to rest myself.” Walker sat cross legged so that he could fall in to his perfect meditation.

The focus he had was only on the natural mana around. With the natural mana, he knew he could pull all elemental mana. Due to Gil, Remey, and Su being near him, the earth, wind, and fire elemental mana would be drawn more than others with the natural mana. It might even cause the natural mana to split in to the elemental manas that make it up.

”Alma, they have found three grand elemental spirits as their partners. Three. And a nature spirit. What are your thoughts?” Scylla had watched the four speak and begin to train. She had felt the elemental mana around them and know that they were recovering. But she was curious about the elves’ perspective.

”I think they are more than we understand. It’s odd. If anyone else were to come together like them, nothing would happen. They have some strange luck and mental drive to become more than they are. It’s natural that the elemental spirits are drawn to them. They would be idols in the elve population if they were elves.” Alma was very honest.

”They are missing darkness, light, water. That’s it. If they manage to get those grand elemental spirits on their side, I can imagine that they will be a team of creation. A team of sages. Even demi-humans have tales of sages.” Scylla looked at the four while wondering what the future held after this battle. She trusted it would be miraculous.
