Master Of None

1259 1259. Remey's Bond

The change in their walking while training was completely unexpected. It was just a perfect moment before they got to their destination. A moment that they could have to bring each other closer and make each other stronger.

Remey's fist slammed down on to the burning stone puppet. A burst of deep red alchemy fire burst out and the alchemy fire spirit rushed to land on Remey's fists. It was no longer content with just watching and helping to control the flames. It wanted to be part of this battle. It wanted to grow with its partner.

The next punch came after Remey ducked under the puppets arms yet again. The puppet had been unable to land a single blow while Remey had caused parts of its body to shear off with her attacks. The next one was no outlier. The strike came down and a devastating crack echoed through the fields. A single arm of the burning stone puppet fell off in pieces releasing a stream of fire.

Before any of them could react, Walker was falling to his knees due to the strain that came with trying to contain the flames he no longer could manipulate properly. Midnight burst forward releasing her gathered breath. Her attack had fused the water and earth elemental mana inside her. This combination caused cold mud to cover the puppet. Sizzling mud began to dry on it while the steam speedily cooled the stone. Midnight was only able to use it for a single breath but the combination was powerful. Even though the time to gather the mana and mix it had taken her a longer duration it proved perfect for the situation.

The flame strings that Walker had made to connect himself to the puppet dissipated and the stone golem collapsed in to pieces while still cooling. The flames had been quenched and the mud was keeping everything from shattering due to the difference in temperature.

"That was amazing. What was that skill!? And Remey, how did you and the fire spirit work together like that!? Gil was full of energy. His dagger training while walking was nothing compared to the two breakthroughs he had just seen. Walker's burning stone puppet and flame strings were spectacular in his eyes. Then adding in the visible learning, improvement, and adjustment they had witnessed to Remey's elemental defense breaking fist was too much to handle.

"Burning stone puppet…I wanted to use the flame doll but tougher so I mixed it with…earth. Gah! I'm tired." Walker fell back on to the damp grass trying to cool down and catch his breath. Alice started to sing while he lay down. But her song was not for him.

"Your hands are burned pretty badly, Remey, you need to learn to hold back." Su was helping Remey with a health potion since Remey couldn't easily uncover the top of the vial.

"I did hold back. We held back a lot. We just need to fine tune the flow of the flames. We learned a new skill too, you know. I combined skills and we found a skill to use together." Remey winced in pain while she felt the skin begin to heal on her hands. They were burned much more than she should have allowed.

"Well, your new skill came at a cost. I don't want to see you pay this price again." Su was still not having it. But Gil was right there to ask Remey what the skill was.

"And the skill is?" His expectant tone made Remey a little more arrogant. But the alchemy fire spirit had already melted in to the spirit mark to rest. It had used a lot of its stored elemental mana to push itself and Remey further.

"Alchemy fire gauntlets. I can only use it with my partner. It wraps itself around my fists while I use skills. It's perfect. We fight together causing more fire damage and stealing flames from what we stroke. It was amazing. I could feel our manas mixing toget-" She flinched again while Su wrapped her hands in healing potion soaked bandages.

"Yes yes, skills and fire. Now just sit still and let Alice and I heal you. Gil, stop encouraging her and go check on Walker. Then tell Midnight she did a good job. That puppet was going to shatter if she didn't do something." Su was fairly impressed as well, but if she showed it then she would undermine her reprimands. They were out in the wild and they had managed to do this. She could only shake her head.

"I know I should have stopped them, but they seemed like they needed this," Onyx spoke only to Su and knew that she was not going to openly reprimand him. He had made a good decision to let everyone stretch their legs and burn off energy. Now they would be able to focus on the task at hand.

"We won't do any more training today. When we reach the ravine we will settle in for a rest before we go in to it in the morning tomorrow." This final order from Onyx was not unheard. they nodded in agreement and decided that they would start to teach and shop each other their thoughts as they had gone through their progression. Walker knew that Midnight and Su would be able to understand the mana he used better while the combination of skills that Remey used could open their minds to inspiration. The more that they improved and put together theories to make combination skills, the stronger they would get. One could only become so powerful alone. If two or three skills came together then there was no way to know what they could do. This was the path to becoming a truly powerful hero without forcing their levels higher and higher to build up stat points.
