Master Of None

Chapter 2158: 2158. Talking With Mana

The idea of trapping an undead using the very mana that it had been forcefully bonded with was already tough. But Walker was talking about using the elemental mana of the entire elemental light plane to be able to trap this radiant skeleton.

It meant that he would be moving much denser light mana with a much higher purity to create a trap of dense and pure light mana which would not allow the radiant skeleton the ability to move until they either degraded in to bone dust, or they gained understanding of their self.

Using his mana, Walker immediately began to pull on the light mana. Onyx saw that walker was focusing immensely on this while the radiant skeletons were approaching. Since he was the one with the greatest light affinity, he had no reason to ignore what was happening. He moved to defend Walker.

The others had not just sat around, Gil began using his daggers to swipe at one of the radiant skeletons. This caused it to become scratched and cut, the daggers that Gil wielded were easily tough enough to leave marks on bones. He could sense that he was able to cut through the bones of the radiant skeletons if he so desired.

That wasnʼt the goal here though. The attacks were distracting one of the radiant skeletons. Su and Remey were doing the same. Dealing enough damage to force the radiant skeletons to use light mana to be able to hold themselves together and regenerate their injuries. But not enough to completely defeat them.

The potential that they could gain their intelligence back was slim. Minute even. However, there was a chance and the party would not remove that hope from their minds.

It was why Onyx had wrapped his body around three radiant skeletons and kept them held in place. They were too weak to break through his tough scales, even without him using the light mana and dark mana he possessed to create an armor around him.

Midnight played a little more of a unique role. She was right next to Walker ensuring that none of the remaining few radiant skeletons approached. While she moved around Walker, she was able to distract their grasping hands. Their jaws slightly clacking with every dodged attack.

This made everyone wonder if the radiant skeletons had some form of intelligence above other skeletons right now. They were clacking their jaws more and more as they missed attacks or were hit. As if they were getting angry that they were being toyed with while Walker had the time to gather mana.

Regardless of them actually having emotions unlike most undead, these skeletons were still making attacks at them. The last order of the immortal king and their natural resistance to life being a clear reason why they were so tenacious.

Walker sensed the light mana reaching out to him. He could feel that the denser light mana reacted to his will in this way much better than the other manas had before. But he had already understood his grasp on manas was evolving as he lived and breathed in more manas within the elemental planes. All mana was reaching out to him in a way.

When lines of denser white light appeared around the area, Walker made a motion to the others to lead the skeletons in to them. Every single radiant skeleton that touched the white light bars caused a reaction. More light would flow out of the small bar in the air creating an entire pillar sealing the skeletons within.

The light itself had become their prison while they rotted away or gained back their intelligence.

As Walker had focused, he had recalled the ways that he had broken the immortal kingʼs sealed door before. How he had also seen beings sealed by him and also removed their seals. It was something that he had surprisingly seen enough. Especially with what and how magic scrolls were. They were being made and used more often after all. Genesis was always advancing.

As he left the denser light mana behind for each skeleton, he began to sweat slightly. It wasnʼt just that he was in tune with light mana at a much denser level than what he had ever done before. No, he was also sensing things he had never sensed before. He was struggling because it was a lot of information at once.

He had experienced many things. The elemental spirits spoke through their mana. The world had spoken through the system in a way. Races had different languages. Onyx used mental communication skills, and there were even people who spoke with gestures. Right now though, he was feeling a language he had never learned but was able to understand to a degree.

The light mana made him understand how to better move it to his will. Even his soul seemed to be resonating with the knowledge that Walker gained. Especially as he realized how to make the light prison pillars he had just used. Why he was able to make it happen so quickly? And why he was now able to use light runes to leave a message in case the pillars were ever broken.

Hence, Walker felt the last radiant skeleton get trapped and pulled away. Not very exhausted since his mana recovered at a rapid pace. Instead, he was tired because his head felt like it had just been forced full of too much right now. He literally could not handle the sudden mental stress from learning so much.

ʼLight prison- mana depending on the being trapped

This skill uses the purest and densest light mana to trap a being within a light pillar. The light pillar can be undone depending on inscribed circumstances. Hence why knowledge of lawful light runes are needed. They are the higher form of natural runes.

The trapped being will not be able to use their mana to break out due to the flood of dense light mana disrupting the flow of other manas. As long as enough light mana is nearby the pillars, they will remain functional. However, they can be weakened by dark mana to a greater degree due to opposition.

The sealing aspect of this skill can…ʼ

More details of this skill and how it worked made Walkerʼs head feel even heavier. He swore that he had learned more than what he was reading from the system and what he felt when he was surrounded by light mana right now. However, he couldnʼt properly comprehend it all. It was too hazy.

After a moment of standing with his eyes closed though, the headache subsided enough for him to realize that he had awakened some aspect of his new race. The closeness to mana literally shared information with him. Hence how those eternal giants could also do that. Remey had literally experienced that a short while ago. But Walker had done it very differently.

He had learned from the maa itself. Something that an elemental spirit or the spirit race would do. This put his mind to a different place. One that was akin to a spiritʼs better than a humans. Not that he was human technically.

After another moment, Walker let his thoughts drift away. He couldnʼt focus on this for too long. The real boon here was that he could now use manas much better. He would definitely have other experiences where he learned rapidly from the mana itself. He just needed to prepare his mind for that event.

”Come closer to me. I just learned a lot from the light mana and I can catch us up much faster.” Gis sudden focus made everyone prepare for a fight. They knew what Walker was like. And right now, his gaze was solid like steel. Everything around him, his entire aura, said that he was going to pursue the immortal king even more than before.

When he stepped forward, the entire section of light mana under them moved. The party didnʼt even need to step with him any more. It was like the light mana was a carriage now. Rushing them along at an incredible pace.

The reason that Walker sensed the location of the immortal king was simple. He was fighting something ahead which caused a greater change in the different light manas. Yet, he also sensed more manas ahead. While the fire elemental plane was still near, along with the water, he didnʼt understand what he sensed now.

He could sense a greater mixing of manas right now though, almost every mana had been pushed together in one spot ahead, but it was dissipating and changing in unique ways that made it completely fuzzy. But as they all got closer to the fighting and the odd mana, it became clear what it might be.
