Master Of None

Chapter 544: 544. Trench

Walker was stumbling here and there with his eyes closed but he couldnʼt properly grasp the earth elemental mana without doing so. He struggled on and felt a soft nudge from Midnghtsʼ nose here and there to keep him from going astray. His feeling of safety increased all the while knowing that his party was always doing their best to protect him.

He knew that he would need to focus more on the earth elemental mana but was having trouble letting the feeling and worry of falling. The fact that he was keeping his eyes close was not helping this and he felt that every time his foot would lift it might become caught or he could end up playing it improperly on a stone or root.

However, Walker was not one to give up. He persisted to take a step over and over and soon found that he was noticing the nudges from Midnight less and less. He wasnʼt sure if this was because he was staying on the path much better or if he was not noticing the feeling any longer.

He also could feel the earth elemental mana beneath his feet had some form of vibration every time he took a step. It was as if it was reacting to his own bodyʼs mana when it came in contact with the earth.

Realizing that this was how everything world work Walker began to try and feel the same in the air. This was much like sensing the natural mana but instead, he was seeing the specific elemental manas and their movement around his own mana as a human being influencing it.

Stretching himself even more he could feel the elemental manas being pushed or shift to fill spaces that his party members were previously in or just entering. The earth would slightly vibrate with each of their steps while the wind would shift to fill the spot they had once been.

This was bringing many ideas and thoughts to his mind as he realized that he had been neglecting this form of training lately.

Walker had been focusing on all natural mana changing and flowing instead of each specific element. Knowing how they each specifically changed when another mana source was added or when they were manipulated by an outside force would serve to heighten his own understanding.

The more he felt the earth vibrate the more he began to understand the rare time the earth would quake under food. He could tell that the entire world must shift here and there when other events happened. It was only normal that there were times that those on the ground would feel this quaking.

ʼThe skill trench has been taken from the earth battle mage system. The user has understood the shifting of the earth and automatically learned the low tier skill trench.

Trench- 2 mana cost

The user influences the earth elemental mana to shift the earth to a different location. This creates a small trench in the userʼs desired sight line. This skill can be used in cooperation with other skills to change the depth and size.

The user has the skill high earth sculpting which easily influences the low class skill trench. The user has not perceived the earth elemental mana enough to upgrade the trench skill to the high tier skill fissure.ʼ

Walker was stunned at the feeling he had. It was like a damn had just been removed and a flood of information came crashing in. He was understanding that there was a way to shift the earth which would cause a natural trench or crack. He wanted to use the skill immediately but when he went to try he could feel that there was more knowledge hiding in the darkness of the earth.

He wanted to pry at this feeling more and more but it was tough and he was losing his focus for some reason. Before he knew what was wrong he stumbles heavily and forcefully opened his eyes to a world of darkness. ”Umm, where…?”

”We have been walking for hours. We already left the forest and made it in to some of the tall grass of the fields. You didnʼt stop walking when we said anything so we kept up. Finally! We can rest!” Remey was the most annoyed but Walker saw the looks of worry she shot at him. It was clear he had caused trouble for the party for hours.

”Oh, holy lord. My legs feel like they are fire!” Walker noticed that his legs were burning in pain from walking constantly without a single second of rest. He quickly used his healing skill to mitigate some of the small damage but knew that most of it was going to need to heal naturally because it was muscle soreness.

”Thatʼs what you get for having us walk in to the night. Look, the moon is halfway over head and we are in the fields. The forest is almost out of sight.” Gil was fair in his annoyance but he also was saying this out of sheer amazement that Walker had somehow meditated so well while walking.

”Sorry… I did learn how to do this though.” Walker tapped his foot on the ground using his mana to activate the trench skill. The entire party felt a slight shake as the ground shifted and a trench of about seven feet deep and ten long appeared before them. ”With my earth sculpting skill I can make it bigger but it will cost me a lot of mana.

If I can understand the earth elemental mana I might be able to learn a skill called fissure. But there is a lot to learn.” The party just looked at Walker with a hopeful expression. They wanted him to push even farther but were too tired to express it at the moment. It was time to rest and Walker was saddled with the first watch.
