Master Of None-Chapter 1660 1660. Covered In Shadows

Blocking the sun? That was a common dream of some monsters or people. They would think that was a massive goal that no one had before. But blocking the moon? That was a first for Mordant. He was perfectly set on it. The darkness mana was already stronger around them. The added bonus that the ocean held a very dark atmosphere already helped too.

"Just try to make a ball of shadows. I will try to flatten it like a disk in the air. It should be possible. I don't think it will be stationary either, it would move with us since it would be attached to us." Walker knew it would have a high mana cost to do this, but it would be worth it.

"Shadow covering?" the familiar elder voice of Shade made both Mordant and Walker smirk. "And interesting thing to be doing without the most powerful dark spirit here, don't you think?" this slightly arrogant attitude was not poor. It was clearly the show that Shade wanted to put on instead of being silent and continuing to rest.

The situation wasn't so dangerous that Shade felt he had to protect them. He was just interested and acting on a whim. He was still different since he had fused with Mordant's partner. He had accepted that he was not just Shade but more than that. He had the memories and feelings of care for mordant. He also had an interest in the world more so than before.

The reclusive attitude he had had before was completely tossed aside. He would not just run about speaking and acting around as the other grand elemental spirits did. But he was still interested to see what would happen when Walker and Fleur added natural mana to something he helped with. Any elemental spirit would want to be part of that. A rising natural spirit was going to use natural mana, wasn't that tempting?

"We will make it happen then." the surge of darkness elemental mana around them grew instantly. Mordant mobilized his full strength to pull at the shadows. Even the ocean's dark mana rose quickly to gather around them.

It only took a quick look for even more to appear as Shade melded back in to the spirit marks on Mordant body. Walker was shocked. He did not feel that Mordant had such a masterful control of the mana before. It had seemingly jumped to do as he commanded. Especially with Shade's minimal addition to the cause. 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m

"I will get to work too." Walker couldn't slack off. He felt Fleur stirring in the spirit mark after she heard the conversation. She would gladly help by using some natural mana with Walker. But they had to work hard and together, just because Mordant and Shade had the skills and knowledge to easily manipulate their elemental mana did not mean it would be a simple thing for Walker. He was still younger and had split himself between many manas.

The natural mana seemed to be a little slow but the moment that it mixed with the darkness elemental mana that Mordant was pulling toward the ships, the darkness flared up. No one knew what was going on until they looked over to see that Mordant and Walker were pushing mana toward each other.

The sudden rise in shadows and twisting darkness would have shocked anyone if they were not aware that there were people that could manipulate the shadows around. But the sudden change was still awe inspiring. It was changing the way that many people were able to do since the light around them seemed to be dimmer. The lanterns burning had to be stocked by those that noticed the lesser line of sight they had.

Before everyone's eyes, a ball of darkness began to take shape. The shadows and the darkness mana were condensed in one place. The natural mana had begun to mix and show what it could do. The rate of the condensing darkness mana was faster. Other elemental manas were forced away. This was the strength of using the natural mana over other manas to help. Light elemental mana could not have been used at all.

As the ball of darkness began to flatten out with Walker and Mordant's will, the moonlight above the single ship was blocked out easily. However, this was not the goal. They wanted to spread the mana in a wide disk to cover the entire fleet of ships.

Soon, there was a collective acceptance that the sailors needed to begin working together even more. The ships that the algae touched were an issue but the moonlight was blocked out. That stopped the lunar algae from growing any more. It was like a fire that had been doused by water, it was an instant change.

Without the light from the mood, many people were able to understand the overall purpose. They hurriedly scraped away the lunar algae that was built up on the hull. The golems even began scraping themselves while there was a chance. It was like a spot of darkness on the glowing pale moonlit sea. A sight that was equally amazing compared to the light that had blossomed as the sun fell below the waves.

As more mana gathered and the darkness disk formed, it was made thinner. But the moonlight was weak and had no way to penetrate the darkness. It had been boosted greatly by natural mana and had radically taken over the sky above the ships. The pure darkness was barely able to be illuminated by the lights around.

The lunar algae started to suffer immediately. Besides being scraped away at a fast speed by everyone working together, it was also losing its vitality. It needed the light of the moon to even grow. Otherwise, the lunar algae was supposed to be small and dormant. Now it could only die off.

The full speed of the ships made their way to the unlit areas of ocean nearby. No one dared to move forward without any approval. Ceasing their movement, all eyes fell on Mordant and Walker we were now back to back. Mordant was grinning like a child that had just been handed a key to a candy store. He had not expected that being bolstered by natural mana would feel so amazing. pan(da-n0vel.c)om

The boost he had was much greater than when he had experienced the affinity potions. He believed that every part of his body was awakening to a full understanding of his own abilities. This was enlightening. Even Shade was feeling the closer connection to the mana he had made his body from. the mana that he had originated from. It was a moment that neither could have imagined before now.

When they saw that there was no more need to force the darkness mana to spread above their heads, the two released it. This sudden pulse of darkness mana caused the shadows to warp again before dissolving in a black fog. It was an unexpected outcome but also another enlightening experience.

'The user has manipulated darkness mana at a higher level in tandem with an experienced being. The results have classified the user to gain two skills from the shadow wizard system.

Shadow cover- 4 mana cost a minute

The user is able to condense their own shadow and cover themselves with it. They can block out the light of the sun and protect their body with it. This skill is very advantageous depending on the race of the user. Some vampires that acquire this skill and known as daywalkers.

Shadow fog- 10 mana cost

The user can condense a ball of shadow then force it to disperse in a wave of dark fog. This fog has a slight decaying effect that is easily resisted. However, this skill is perfect for blinding others while also warping shadows. It is partially an illusion skill that is more powerful at night than in the day.'

The system reported this to Walker but it was not what he was focused on. Instead he was focused on the tired and heavily breathing sailors and soldiers. They had given their all to peel away the lunar algae while the two had the shadows protecting them. It was hard work and had massively paid off.

"Everyone should rest!" Walker gathered his voice and shouted as loud as he could. He wanted everyone to know that they were safe for now. That they had done well. That the danger had passed.

"It was perfect. The natural mana…I will be below deck." Mordant did not hold back. He went to meditate on his new understandings. The other royal dragons saw this and looked at Walker. They too would need to experience this. They could also be enlightened by natural mana.
