Master Of None

Upon returning to the mansion, Walker spread everything out on the ground to perform a mental checklist. However, no matter how he focused, he was still caught on the upgrade to his high spatial storage skill.

’Due to the acclimation of space mana within the body, the addition of time mana within the body, and the advancement in understanding of the united existence requiring space and time mana, the high spatial storage skill has advanced.’

This notification had made Walker realize that he had, if even the tiniest bit, understood time mana and it had dwelled within his body more so than what would happen naturally. On top of this, space mana had allowed his body to adapt even more.

As an Origin race member, he could use all manas and let them dwell within his body. Even before he had the affinity for all manas, but this was entirely different since his body grew stronger by also having every mana present within him to a degree. His understanding of them greatly affected what he could do in terms of that as well.

’The skill of high spatial storage has advanced to multi dimensional storage.’

’The skill of multi dimensional storage is a skill that very few can learn due to the fact that high acclimation to space mana is required. There is also the innate requirement that time mana is present within the user at a higher degree than the average being.’

’Multi dimensional storage: space mana affinity, time mana affinity, appropriate understanding, mental archive skill requirement.

By utilizing space mana, the user can use larger amounts of mana to make specific storage spaces that can be affected by time. By doing so materials or items stored within will be able to be kept in perfect environments to maintain or even improve quality.

Small living beings such as plants, dormant beings, and otherwise will be able to be stored within them if there is appropriate mana and time mana present.

The storage is linked to the mental archive skill allowing for the storage to take on a mental form of a vault large enough to be expanded many times over based on the mana spent to improve it.

A normal high spatial storage within the effects of time can still be utilized.

More advanced forms of multi dimensional storage can be created through the mixing of various manas. Some of which can have an increased flow of time depending on the usage of time mana and understanding of time and space mana in unison.

There is a greater amount of ambient spatial mana left behind which will affect others in the area when creating a new multi dimensional storage space…’

There were other small facts about the skill being able to store more with better understanding and how the skill is dependent on the user as the anchor for the storage spaces created. Meaning that if Walker perished or released them then they would spill out everything regardless of location or time. Something that he would have to make note of if he was carrying something very dangerous and in a poor situation due to battle or otherwise.

The skill itself was amazing. The ability to create a new form of spatial storage that could be curated to perfectly store certain materials was impossible in his mind prior. Walker was sure that some may have the skills to do these things but this also felt like a higher skill more accustomed to the Origin race as a whole.

They were a race that could carry around the small elemental planes created out in chaotic space, they needed to be able to protect what they carried with them. Meaning that making a special storage space that would hold those elemental planes may not be as far fetched as it sounded.

He also considered how valuable this could be for many situations.

Walker would be able to maintain the perfect state of ores when they were mined. He could harvest monster parts and store them in a multi dimensional storage space that would allow them not to rot and also maintain the perfection of their mana within. Making them all the more valuable for sale or use elsewhere in crafting.

Besides this, he might even be able to have an entire greenhouse of herbs, no, multiple greenhouses of herbs of all different affinities with him. Making him able to maintain them with a few thoughts.

His mind ran wild with the ideas could bring in small elemental spirits which would naturally help acclimate manas for herbs and plants. If that was the case, he could have an entire small ecosystem growing in various multi dimensional storage areas. He could literally create smaller elemental planes within his very own skill. Something that would have been a magically impossible idea before.

This also raised the question and fear that there might be a multi dimensional storage space with the high enough requirements that the entire world could fit within. Yet, the mana that would take would be so insurmountable Walker couldn’t even perceive the true depth. Meaning that thought might just be a little too fantastical.

However, if the worst came to worst, it was an idea that may spur some valuable non traditional ways to save people. If Walker could store a small village or a few last remaining members of a race one day to save them, then advancing this skill even more was invaluable. Not just to his own uses but to the safety of others.

This also brought even more value to the portable forge skill. Being able to have a portable forge within one of these multi dimensional storage spaces meant he was carrying around a forge he could enter safely without worrying some monster might walk up to him when he had the skill out in the wilderness. That would be many times safer as long as he could fortify the position he had entered the skill.

Walker felt in his heart that he could not change the location he went in and out of the skill without being outside of it to move. Something about him being the anchor to the multi dimensional storage skill made him feel that was the case.

Overall this amount of potential within a skill would be enough to base several classes for others on. If people could spend more time around him and gain some affinity for spatial mana, then they might be able to do more.

A flame spatial storage skill could lead to someone having a fire and space related class. Potentially one that allowed the breeding of fire monsters, breeding of fire herbs, and storage of unique fire materials within a specific fire elemental storage space.

If this was said for any or every elemental mana then classes of various elemental storage abilities would change a great deal of Genesis. Even the exploration within the elemental planes would evolve due to their ability to store whatever possible from those elemental planes. It was a magnificent potential he wished to see.

For a moment, Walker caught the same sensation. Time mana had flowed through his body. The potential he saw in this new skill he was sure no one else had seen either was something the time mana had allowed him to see as a future that could happen.

With the right guidance, there would and should be new class holders with amazing potential. It just took the right amount of work to get to that place. If Walker could slow himself down once he returned from his exploration of the elemental planes… Well, he wouldn’t mind that. Some time to train young apprentices who might be able to act as the center of new explorations in the elemental planes felt nice.

His focus snapped to the idea that he could probably make a perfect space for Remey to work on alchemy too.

Yes, the multi dimensional storage meant he could have elemental storages, but he also knew of the portable forge. If he pushed further on that idea he could create a portable alchemy lab. A portable carpentry workshop. A portable everything!

His soft laughter surprised Alice who had managed to walk up behind him without notice. While she found it adorable that he would be so focused on his own thoughts she also worried about him. Walker always seemed to be running a million miles an hour learning more and more.

”Break time from all your thoughts.” She nudged him with a plate of food and a cup of fresh apple juice. She knew very well he wouldn’t have eaten anything until someone like her came along to push it in to his hands.

”Thank you, I didn’t even realize you came back to the mansion. Are you prepared?” The conversation quickly fell in to her preparations before the others slowly arrived as well.
