Master Of None

Chapter 622: 622. Fire Breathing

When Midnight released the built up flames the entire furnace area came back to life. The darkness that came with the fire she breathed changed the color of all the flames within the single furnace. There were many surprised to see the flames become a mix of black and orange along with many who kept their distance even more.

”Ha! That is spectacular. Decaying flames? I havenʼt seen these since I was a child. No dwarf could ever breathe these. I love when dragons come and show off their flames.” The fire breather was ecstatic to see the decaying flames.

”Let the testing forge know they will be making darkness element resistant armor and weapons. We can fill an order for the swamps.”

The fire breather knew that the poisons and decay in the swamps would be a massive danger to most. This was why there was also an outstanding order for any armor or weapons made that could resist some of these things. The adventurers and travelers that needed to go through the swamps would pay a hefty price for them.

Midnight had breathed a full breath of flame out and stepped back as the furnace was closed. She was very proud to see that the dwarves were all in awe of the flames she added to the forge. However, she was still a little annoyed that the fire breather was not as amazed as the others. She could tell he was more stubborn and wanted to show off too.

With a huff and a simple nod to the furnace, Midnight showed a look of challenge to the fire breather. ”You want to see what I can do? Are you sure you are ready to see another race breathe flames? I bet you wonʼt even know what hit you.”

The dwarf pulled a large canteen from his hip and took a deep sip. The liquid he had consumed puffed in his cheeks and the furnace was opened to show the brilliant black and orange flames. The fire breather lifted a small stick like object with a red fire elemental mana crystal on the end.

Without any warning the dwarf breathed out, spitting the liquid he had drunk a moment ago. The mist caught fire with the help of the fire elemental mana crystal and caused a brilliant yellow and orange flame to spread out and in to the furnace.

The flames danced and mixed becoming brighter and increasing in temperature. The flames escaped the dwarfsʼ lips for a solid minute before he ended them and the furnace closed again. ”What did you think of that? Dwarves can breath some pretty interesting flames huh?”

Midnight had to admit that the dwarf had just breathed some brilliant flames. Luckily for her, no dwarf could hear her thoughts without Onyx there to speak for her. She was able to keep this to herself and act indifferent.

”Us fire breathers use our highly concentrated alcohol brewed in some unique caves to make our own flames. The mana we add to them pushes the temperature many times hotter and is perfect for forging. There are even fire breathers that can add other elements to their flames. We once had a frozen flame breather system. That was wild.”

Midnight was intrigued by the idea of breathing icy flames. This would be incredibly useful when she fought since she would be able to use them more easily around her party members. She could also use them to stop an opponent in their tracks or change the terrain. If she did this with the decaying flames then she would cause massive damage to the area around her along with the party.

Seeing that Midnight began to become interested, the fire breather knew it was because he had mentioned different kinds of flames and continued, ”We have had dwarves with elemental affinities that changed their flames. The earth fire breath that one dwarf had was incredibly strange, it was silver like metal and caused things to rust faster. Even organic materials seemed to become slightly rusty.”

The dwarf thought harder for what he knew of the breathed flames, ”There were light elemental flames that gave armors the ability to flash with light and blind opponent. Oh, the wind flames were interesting because they were a combination of two manas. The fire elemental mana was pushed to a higher temperature due to the wind elemental mana added. That was a sight to see.”

Midnight was soaking all of this up. She had only learned the decaying flames and was sure she could learn more. She was a dragon champion and there was no elemental mana crystal she could not consume. It only went to say that if she trained she would be able to breathe every kind of elemental flame. Thinking of this she made note to ask Walker about this kind of training when she was able to do so.

She fell in to a rhythm with the fire breather and ended up competing for a little while to see who could breathe a flame the longest. Midnight was taking it as training since she had not used her flames that much due to the dangers. However, here she could use them as much as she wanted without any worry.

”Miss Midnight, you have been requested in the forge. Could you please come with me?” The royal guard appeared yet again only two or three hours after she had come down. She was a little unhappy to be taken from the fire but she also saw that the royal guard came with the ice jade pendants and was able to forgive him in a second.

”What? The work day isnʼt over. We need her for more flames.” The fire breather didnʼt want to see her go.

”I see the flames have been added and are mixed well. You should be able to keep those black flames burning for another ten hours with the right care. Continue your work.” The royal guard shot down the fire breather and began to guide Midnight again. The work continued without any delay, there was too much to focus on, and arguing would only interrupt the process.
