Master Of None

"I got it!" Remey felt the fire elemental mana. It had been tricky. She was used to the alchemy fire and not regular fire elemental mana. She knew that Azar was still an alchemy fire spirit while also being the grand fire elemental spirit named by the world. It was something she could tell.

Fire was not just one kind of fire. It was all fire. The alchemy fire was just a specific kind of fire that she and her partner had focused on creating a unique fire spirit. Now that the status of her partner had risen, Remey was able to grasp more. Feel more.

The fire elemental man that came through the spirit mark burned at first. It was the spirit mark fully settling in on Remey's body. However, she felt that she was feeling the completed version of her skills.

For a few months now, Remey had the goal of focusing on the elemental knuckles for combat. That being said, when she started finding that the fire elemental knuckles and her partner worked better together, she focused on them. That led to the creation of flame wrapping skills paired with fire based physical attacks.

This was a major breakthrough for anyone. A physical attack that also dealt magical damage even though Remey was not in any way a mage. She was a physical fighter that also used knowledge to follow alchemy. The world was opening up to her more and more as she focused her mind on bringing the fire elemental mana toward her.

Since Su was focusing more on the earth elemental mana, she was feeling the same. Yet, Su had already grasped the basics of earth. The toughness that could protect. Now she was seeing that she had a very narrow mind.

Su had seen Walker use his high earth sculpting skill before. It was a wonder that could create temporary structures that required careful attention. They were hard to use in a battle but worth it to use if he had time to prepare. Su had been unable to understand the intricacies of this skill.

Not only was earth the dirt beneath her feet. It was the stones, pebbles, gems, ores, everything below the softer soil that bred plant life. There was a lot of energy that was just waiting beneath her. Su was amazed by what she had been missing.

The defensive qualities of earth were much more than she had known. Earth had the training of pressure. Constant pressure from larger and larger amounts of earth on top of itself. This fact made Su realize that she needed to use the earth elemental mana to train herself.

What also crossed her mind was the loss of the earth dwelling shield. It had crumbled under the high intensity of mana that moved through it when Alvaro received his name. She wasn't sure if there would be sadness or if it was a necessary part of growing. A show of strength that one had outgrown the vessel they had before. These thoughts floated through Su's mind the more earth elemental man that came to her.

Since they were all trying to recover the elemental mana their partners needed, Gil was bringing in the wind elemental mana. However, he had a faster rate of doing so. He also could feel the Zephyr was already ready to roam about if she desired. But what she seemed to be telling him was that she would wait until the right moment to use all her strength.

This bond was a solid foundation for both Zephyr and Gi's strength. But Gil felt he was too weak still. He had seen the strength of more powerful soldiers, especially Scylla in the village takeover. He needed more.

The ideas that Remey had when talking about Su being able to fuse elemental manas too was where he thought he could find strength. Gil was not foolish enough to believe that he could develop affinities for all elemental mana somehow. That was something that his party members had through other means.

What Gil did think of though was simple. He had the ability to create elemental arrows of every elemental mana. What if he used the wind to increase flames or create sandstorms. He had not attempted to make a fused arrow with multiple arrow heads or storage points for different elemental manas. It was something that seemed too dangerous before. But why not try it with Walker as his safety? Someone that could manipulate all elemental mana to protect him in his experiments?

The feeling of mana around Walker made him realize that everyone had grasped their own elemental mana. Their focus had been achieved and if he didn't need to then he didn't need to keep pulling mana around them. Therefore, he gradually let up and started to focus on the natural mana he needed to provide to Fleur.

She had exhausted herself when she connected to the world and the natural mana flowing around them. Walker was not foolish. He could tell that he was sensing a minuscule amount of natural mana compared to what was actually around them. The ability to sense it had been rising but slowly.

This wasn't due to him being unable to train in it. But it came from the fact that natural mana was a fickle thing. It was everywhere within everything and connected to the core laws of the world. How could someone just understand something like that easily? It would be sheer luck to even have what Walker had now.

Fleur was different though, she was made of natural mana. She had a bond that held her to it no matter what. Through her, Walker could see the greater picture. The acceptance that he had a long way to go before he could say he was a real sage. Before he could say he and Fleur were in tune with the way of nature.
