Master Of None

’The skill mana conversion is attempting to awaken.’

’The skill mana conversion has failed to awaken.’

The entire flow of mana was suddenly stopped as everything connected. Walker felt the manas flow as they should flow in their planned form. He also could feel that the runes of each locations where the dragon villages were being built had fallen in to a perfect rhythm.

The perfect balance of each elemental mana had been reached which wallowed a greater density and purity of all manas within Genesis territory. Even spreading purer manas outside in to the world as a whole.

The natural mana that formed caused plants and many people to become more lively. Even to feel healthier than what they had been. This was very clear in the herb fields where some of the struggling plants had begun to grow visibly back to their prime.

But what Walker had become focused on was that the system had shown him something. It had mentioned a skill trying to awaken. One that was not being just taken from another class.

While he knew that some races had naturally occurring skills, he had not expected that he would have one other than being able to consume mana as nutrients for his body. The dragons had their draconic language which would naturally come to them as they grew. The angels had the ability to absorb their affinity mana from the air and use that mana as their own.

There were other examples depending on the race that someone had, yet, the Origin race was unknown to the world. Or at least, to Walker and everyone here. He was still yet to find any information about it. But he had an inkling that it had been the race that created the temples to the elemental planes. That would make sense to him.

His mind was forced on to this subject as he wondered what the mana conversion skill was. How he could replicate what he was just doing so that he could awaken that skill. However, he felt that he had been missing something important.

The manas had locked in to their flow between rune formations, therefore, the manas had claimed themselves. He had no longer needed to be in a deep state where he focused on the flow of manas and only the flow of manas. He was not needing to bring the mana sin to him and allow every single one to flow in to his body as if he was one with it.

But that was the key. He had done just that. He had melded himself with the manas at an in depth level. That was where the manas had become closer to him than ever before. Naturally, that had to be some aspect of what had changed what he felt. Had tried to awaken the skill

Along with this, the purity and density of manas had to play a larger role as well. The manas were much more powerful than what they normally were as everyone worked to ensure that the runes were controlled. As they worked to ensure that the pure manas were moving as they planned so that the natural flow created would not become destructive.

Because they had done so, The manas had been available for Walker to manipulate. Been available to awaken the eternal codex which was still floating around Walker because it was so full of mana that it was able to function partially.

It was only functioning partially since it could not have the spatial mana, time mana, life mana, and death manas which Walker struggled to grasp on to. If he had better control of them, then it would be easier for him to make the eternal codex function at a level that no one had ever seen.

the sheer strength that it would possess would be something above what he and the wandering blacksmith had expected when they first forged it.

”I need to go somewhere with denser mana and much purer mana than here…” Walker knew that he would not be able to properly awaken this skill unless he made the journey in to the elemental planes.

The idea that they would be like the world was out of the question. He had already seen some books theorizing what they were like and had the ideas from those who had some connections with them. Mordant benign someone that had barely touched the rift between them.

The darkness elemental plane could be thought of as an endless darkness. Some place that took extremely high darkness affinity to comprehend if one wished to even view it. A terrain that was made of dark mana and also had dark mana affinity beings living within it. But that did not mean that it wasn’t physical.

The spirits were able to create bodies out of their manas. Naturally, the elemental planes were something similar. A terrain dictated by the pure and dense dark mana that made it up. Something harder to comprehend since Walker had yet to reach that depth of understanding when it came to dark mana. Yet, he believed that just going there at this point would bring him to that understanding.

When he came to the conclusion that he had no choice but to go to the elemental planes, he accepted it. He felt that Fleur was looking at him with worry, but as he felt her connection with him, he realized a little more there.

She wasn’t sharing feelings of worry or curiosity. Instead, it was a feeling of amazement. As Walker looked at himself and looked at the system, he realized why. he had leveled up significantly during this whole process. He had gained a lot of experience from manipulating manas while reaching out his senses. His true mana sense was very high since he was able to sense a much further range.

Even closing his eyes now, he could come up with the shapes of those in the light and dark dragon village areas checking the rune formations. Working to ensure mana flowed through them perfectly without any damage or issues to be seen. It was a wonder how his senses were so clear.

Beyond this, he could also feel that his strength had returned a lot more. The natural mana was being sent from the eternal codex to him. That Was the mana he felt first. The eternal codex was still bound to him. It was part of him. He was the only one that could use it.

Naturally, that connection was allowing him to transfer mana back and forth with it. But right this second, the eternal codex was allowing mana that was too dense within it to flow to him naturally.

It was boosting him up more. ”That’s what the mana conversion skill is. It makes mana my strength. Lets me get stronger just by existing in mana. That’s why I have been feeling better and my senses sharper. Fleur!

Since I am subconsciously consuming mana I have been getting more experience!”

This was a great realization to have. A worry that Walker had since he had used the one time true hero title holder mastery skill. He had lost his experience and so many skills were located because he was too weak to use them. But if he kept focus where he was and remained absorbing more manas, then he would get stronger.

This also raised a question. The Origin race, how powerful were they? This was something that he hadn’t even fully awakened. If he awakened the mana conversion skill, how powerful would he become? He would surely stand well over the others. Stand over all other races that is.

It would make him a lot more challenging to be around. He would need a lot more mana at all times. He would also have to remain within the elemental planes most likely. Or he would just feel significantly weaker if he was not within them.

But that was all theory. He had no proof of this. But he also knew that Remey needed to go to the fire elemental plane at some point because of her unique race. As a dragon soul, she needed the denser mana to nourish her body as it had changed greatly. Would he be the same? Would he have to leave everyone behind?

He also would need the other manas. Not just the elemental manas. How far would it take him? Would he go in to the chaotic manas in search of more? Would he have to travel outside of the elemental planes themselves?

It was an overwhelming thing to think about. Walker’s head started to hurt thinking about it which made Fleur pull him a little. She wanted to go back to the mansion. A place where everyone could be together and Walker could forget his stress.

”You’re right, let’s go home for now.”
