Master Of None

Walker could tell that Su training right near them by dodging and rolling while letting the earth spirit create the earth fortress was very distracting to Midnight. But this was even better. The training required her to have focus and having a distraction would help her sharpen this focus. It also helped Walker divide his attention and learn how to better focus on two different activities at once.Â

Midnight had started to breathe in small amounts of earth elemental mana now. It was not a major amount that was able to affect her breath but it was enough for her to adapt to the feeling. Her mana was being circulated to protect her throat and her golden flame heart was starting to show its effects.Â

The golden flame heart was able to better allow Midnight to learn and use the elemental flame breaths. This simple fact was why Midnight was able to breathe in the earth elemental mana and use it. There was also the fact that she had the dragon champion bloodline in her body which allowed her to use all of the elemental attacks anyways. But the time to learn it all was massively reduced with the golden flame heart.Â

That all came together to show Walker that Midnight had begun to learn the earth attack in just an hour of slow adjustment. This may have been missed by Midnight but the sand he had made was not to be breathed in. It was made so that it would react more easily to Midnight while she was breathing the earth elemental mana. Therefore, after this hour when Walker saw the sand start to shift he knew that Midnight had begun to grasp the concept.Â

The earth spirit was getting more creative in how it created the earth fortress around Su as well. At one point Walker noticed a very smart tactic. Instead of creating the earth fortress around Su, it left a space for the shield to act as a wall. This meant that Su could walk out of the earth leaving the rest of the walls to attack. Therefore, the spirit didn't need to use any additional mana to change the wall to let Su escape. Overall, it was more mana efficient.Â

Walker did not say anything to Su when he saw this since she was so focused on being able to burst from the fortress without any trouble. So far it appeared that she had combined this with her shield bash skill so that she could bash and knock away whatever was attacking them. It was a sound strategy that he was looking forward to seeing in the future.Â

With his attention focused on the two, he did not realize that he himself was still using the earth elemental mana to tell how Midnight was doing. His senses were sharpening and he subconsciously started to move some of the sand himself to the rhythm of Midnights' breathing. While he did this he ideally moved it and began to push some sand in the air until he noticed his fidgeting.Â

Once he had realized his fidgeting, Walker started to train himself a little more. This may have divided his attention more but ut served as better mental training. The sand he was playing with easily rose in the air and combated the wind elemental mana. But when he started to mix the two it worked much better than he expected.Â

The sand and the air were very cooperative with how Walker manipulated them now that he had the young sage title. It felt natural that they would combine. The only place he could think where these two elements would naturally combine was the dessert, or so he expected from the books he had read. Walker, or any of the party, had never been to a desert. However, they had read that there were large sand storms that could be said to be very similar to the sand that Walker was now mixing with the wind elemental mana.Â

'The skill dust blind has been taken from the dirty fighter system. The skill dust blind has been automatically learned due to user actions.Â

Dust blind- 2 mana cost

The user must be in a dry environment with dry earth around. The user uses their mana to kick up a breeze that causes the dirt to become dust. This dust will billow up in an area blinding all of those present for a short time.'

Walker was going to think this skill was a good one. Blinding a dangerous opponent would give the party a chance to attack or even just get in position. Unfortunately, the skill was not as good as it sounded. "Useless!" Walker explained when he saw the system. He would blind even his party members using this skill.Â

His sudden outburst of surprise caught Midnight in exactly that; surprise. She breathed out sharper than before due to Walkers' exclamation and forced the earth elemental mana to be pushed in a more direct manner than before.

"Sorr-" Before Walker could apologize he suddenly rolled back to avoid the small needle like spike of sand directly in front of him. They were not large nor could they defeat a real opponent. But they would have cut his leg at least if he had remained in his sitting position in front of Midnight. "That was my fault for surprising you. But that was great!" Walker praised Midnight to make sure she knew he was happy to see her progress.Â

This was enough of an accident for Midnight to know it was not entirely her fault. Yet, she had the feeling memorized now and she knew she could replicate it. She could breathe earth elemental mana and cause the sand to become little spikes. With further training, she should be able to create large earth spikes from any dirt they traveled through. It was a major success.Â
