Master Of None

Taking out the single handed elemental hammer from his storage, Walker started to slam the molds to force them the rest of the way together. The hotter the molds got the better it would go. The shaping of the mana gem could not have any air bubbles inside it at all. If it did, the mana entering it would cause it to immediately shatter. Being dangerous was just the start of this issue, it could cause an unfortunate elemental attack accidentally.

Walker had reached out to pull more of the light elemental mana toward the flames of the forge. The heat was increasing the more mana that he pushed in to the forge. The fire elemental mana in the forge of the ship had been dense already, now that it was being pulled toward one forge, it was even more intense.

The white flames that Walker was envisioning were not the same cleansing flames he had seen before. He was imagining the flames that held danger. The flames that were so hot that you wouldn't even feel the burns they gave you if you touched them.

The mixing of light elemental mana in to the fire elemental mana was increasing greatly. This was bringing out the dangers that light elemental mana possessed. Most people only saw light elemental mana as a safe and healing kind of power. But this was mainly because of the churches and healers that used it.

Yet, many had proven the dangers of light elemental mana. Alice was a living example of the things that she could create if she was able to create a song with her mana. The light could become anything that could defeat, cut, destroy, and so much more. There was power and respect that the light elemental mana needed to be faced with if someone wished to use it.

"Use more authority. The light must bend to your values. Your will. If you give it an inch you will lose all control." Rise spoke with firm intentions. Walker had been in his own focused world as he pushed for more of the light and fire elemental mana to mix.

He wasn't sure where she was around him but Rise's words were clear and concise. They told Walker exactly where he was failing in increasing the bonding of the two elemental manas. The fire elemental mana raged on while the light needed strict control. They were slightly opposing but they could also be one and the same. Roaming free and growing.

Understanding the very essence of a single elemental mana was what needed to be done so that one could grasp the best possible understanding. Walker was more familiar with the warm and loving glow that came from healing or buffs from light elemental skills. He was not as comfortable with the strict, sharp, and dangerous side of light elemental mana. But Rise was and she liked what she was seeing. The growth in front of her eyes was worthy of her guidance.

The simple thing that had come to Rise's attention was that she didn't need to just sit by. Walker was going to be and would remain the next natural dragon royal. She could do nothing about it. But where she could act was in how he grew. He was young. A fledgling in standards of dragons. Their lifespan could bridge thousands of years if they grow properly. Why could she not guide him?

The acceptance was not something Rise would ever speak out loud. She had resisted and even partially fought against the values that Walker and his family represented. They oppose many things she had trained herself to go against. However, she could do something here and there while maintaining her pride.

The small encouragement and advice was enough for Walker to stabilize his mana again. Using some of the natural mana within his body was all he had to do. The light elemental mana was forced to move better with what he intended. The natural mana was his way of holding other singular elemental manas accountable.

Within the natural mana was their opposite but also their match in perfect balances. The fact that this was the case made the elemental mana easier to tame. Adding on the degree of control that Walker already had, the flames began to brighten.

The dim forge that had been lit with orange and red flames soon began to brighten. So much so that some of the younger dwarves and blacksmiths that had yet to gain certain protective skills were forced to look away.

Walker's hammering on the molds increased. He was fully immersed in the forging of these mana gems. It was the same way that the wandering blacksmith acted when he found that he was interested in a new material or idea. Walker had nearly replicated the obsession that led to the wandering blacksmith becoming a great name for many who desired to even look at a forge.

'The skill white flame forging has been taken from the starlight forge master system. The user has learned the skill white flame forging automatically through guidance, prior knowledge, and intense focus bordering on obsession.

White flame forging- passive

The user of this skill is able to more easily meld light and fire elemental manas to create the white hot flames replicating stars. Those who forge in such flames can easily add light elemental affinities to the forged item. Along with this, the white flames can also force the fire elemental mana in to a purified state. This purified state allows them to burn incredibly hot.'

The skill notification was totally missed as Walker dropped the smaller molds in to buckets of tempered oil to cool them. If he had seen the skill, he would realize that this skill was not just something he could use for forging. He would increase the heat of any fire elemental skill he used by bringing the light elemental mana to match the fire elemental mana. Therefore, increasing his strength in fire magic overall.

"I need a silver ingot!" Walker was in the flow and had already made the gems. He was not even going to check them. Instead, he wanted a silver ingot to begin to forge a necklace. He had a blueprint memorized from the wandering blacksmith's workshop. It was nothing fancy but ideal for what he wanted to do.

If Walker had thought about it, he would have wondered why he said silver. But his instincts told him that silver would perfectly bond with his intended use of the light elemental nana. Silver was often used to face undead and darker species of monsters. It had a natural affinity for light elemental mana which could harm undead more easily.

The blacksmiths that had surrounded burst in to action. They knew the materials and intentions Walker had. They were going to help a creation by someone that had personally worked with the wandering blacksmith more than once. For them, this was the same as indirectly assisting a master. Walker could even be considered a partial student of the wandering blacksmith.

The silver was white hot in just a few breaths after being placed in the forge. Walker was easily able to hammer it and began shaping it. He had forged things before and was able to replicate some of the simple techniques when it came to creating the chain necklace with small inlays here and there for gems.

The skills he showed off were enough to make anyone jealous who had never forged before in their life. While his work was miles away from a master's work, Walker showed that the level he had was well above average just because of his mana control.

'Natural light gem

This natural light gem is the near perfect fusion of natural mana and light elemental mana affinity. Due to the high amount of light elemental mana used and natural mana used to pacify it, this gem can hold both light and natural mana. It can only ever hold the two manas in tandem and if exposed to too much of another elemental mana will risk breaking.'

The gems that Walker took out from the molds were perfect. He did not even need to worry about them as he fitted them in to the heated silver necklace. The metal was still soft so that he could form it to the gems without worry that he would ever have to reset them in the metal. He was going to make something that would last a lifetime and then some.

The process was lasting much longer than any of those watching realized. Alice had exhausted all of her mana and then some after drinking the mana potions handed to her. But Walker had also drunk some through the process. But what truly shined was the finished product as Walker began to polish the metal and the gems to remove small bits of ash from them.
