Master Of None-Chapter 1686 1686. Why Not Join The Training?

"Su did what?" Walker had made sure that Midnight and Onyx were well fed and somewhere comfortable to sleep. However, he had not expected to overhear a few of the dragonkin discussing the fight that Su had while Walker was occupied earlier. He had gone right in to the storm and had not seen what happened with Su at all.

"We are literally on the same ship, how did I miss this." Part of Walker felt bad that he wasn't there, yet, he also knew that it was better that he wasn't there. If he had been he might have altered the results. It could have also taken away from the newfound fame that Su had with the dragonkin.

Since Su was a draconic guardian, it was ideal that the dragonkin had a high evaluation of her. This alone would help her and everything she did when it came to them. She was a draconic guardian, but Su was also human. That had to be a big reason why Su and the dragonkin might not immediately get along even though she was changing more and more every day after the ritual with Midnight.

Having the peace of mind to know that Su was able to learn more skills from the dragonkin while also letting her instincts take over and teach her was good too. It meant that Su had accepted her role a lot more clearly. It also made Walker understand that Su was letting go of burdens on her mind and heart.

What did surprise him though was that Su had used the pointed ends of the shield made to help her dig in to the ground. Since Su had gone that far, it meant that she had been dedicated enough to learning a new skill. So much so that she was going to stop the perfect defending that she always did and begin using a more offensive style of combat new to her but definitely more like a dragonkin's battle style.

With these things on his mind, Walker made his way to where Terron was staying. He had apparently been around when he was meditating, however, that was not something he could have paid a single second of attention to. Walker's meditation had been on the changes in natural mana and the natural changes in mana during a harsh storm. Not that it was the worst storm that the ocean could conjure, Walker was sure that it hadn't been nearly as bad as it could have been.

"Armor is for the weak! If you can not block that attack with your true body then you do not deserve to be related to a dragon in any way!" The shout was from Terron. Walker hadn't heard him so harsh before. But he knew what was going on already.

As Walker entered the large room that Terron had claimed as his own, he saw that Su was training directly with Terron. Terron was in his dragonkin form and had managed to find some wrapped pieces of wood. They were like clubs but with padding on them. It appeared that layers were being removed the more that Su used skills to learn.

"Don't come to interrupt me. I am teaching the dragonkin guardian that you have not spent time with how to truly defend herself. You will owe me for this." Terron's glare made Walker want to turn around and walk right back out. Unfortunately, he needed to learn some defensive skills too. And he knew just how to do it.

"And will you still make me leave even if I start to break apart some natural mana to create earth mana around you?" This stopped Terron in his tracks.

"What do you want then? I am already helping you here."

"Walker, please leave me to train. I need to learn this skill better than anyone else does. It is mandatory." Even Su seemed like she didn't want to stop at all. She knew that if Terron got ahold of any earth mana at all that he would stop and meditate. He would be looking at every new understanding or theory that he had gained while looking at natural mana.

"Oh, no, I will be joining you. That's why I want to break down the natural mana to make earth mana. The other manas will also make it rough in here so that will be a nice challenge." Walker didn't have much experience breaking down natural mana since he was more focused on making it. That was another reason he wanted to do this.

He could both learn a new skill and also see the reactions of natural mana being split. On top of that, he would also be training his mind to be able to do multiple things at once again. That would strengthen his mentality for the next time he burdened himself with a big task. He hated that he was not able to easily use multiple skills constantly. Just for a shorter while even though he did have multi tasking skills.

"Fine, then do it. Put your champion's guardian through tougher training. She might need the resistance to activate a real metal or diamond skin skill." Terron had not managed to get Su to use the earth elemental mana provided to her by her partner well enough yet. Su had enough mana in her body because of her spirit mark. That was clear, unfortunately, she had been unable to awaken the skill metal skin or anything like it.

That being said, Su had grown just as frustrated as Terron. He had expected that she would be able to awaken the skill much faster after she had shown so much prowess in battle and other aspects. It was a disappointment that this was not the case. But Terron knew that with Walker offering more mana then it would be more likely. He could also take advantage of whatever Walker was doing. Having earth mana created in a place that shouldn't have any would be a massive boon.

"Just hang on a few minutes, I haven't done this before so it might be a little rough." Walker knew that Su was watching him carefully. She clearly had a few thoughts of her own when it came to Walker's addition to training. But with what she had already been through, she knew that there would be a definite change in her progress.

The bruises and scrapes from defending against Terron's attacks had built up. Walker hadn't hesitated to use a healing skill on Su before he sat down. But it was very clear that the steel skin skill could only be gained through harsh training.

This was another reason that Terron was annoyed with the progress. Normally the dragonkin under him had to train against each other and take many hits in training battles. This was how they would awaken their skills. Some were less talented and gained the stone skin skill but that was rare. Normally all of dragonkin would awaken the steel skin skill which was very powerful for them. Especially against the monsters that lived underground in caves.

Sensing the natural mana was the easy part now. Walker was more easily able to grasp it and draw a small amount toward him from the air. A lot of the natural mana still resided around the ocean after the storms. It seemed to have settled on the top of the ocean waiting for the next change in the weather.

Breaking it down seemed harder though. Walker could sense the individual elemental manas that came together to make the natural mana one mana. If he added fire to it, then the natural mana would enhance the flames using natural force. That was why Walker was able to help others boost or alter their skills to some degree. It wasn't just because of the way that he used his skills in tandem.

The pulling of the elemental manas seemed to want to stay in balance. It was a direct opposite from what Walker had experienced when he first combined elemental manas to create natural mana. Now that they were locked in to a balance, they don't want to leave. It just proved that mana was a stubborn thing all around.

Using his pull on the earth mana proved to just make the mana agitated. Especially since there was a high amount of water and wind elemental mana around them due to the ocean. Yet, this seemed to be the way that it would work for Walker. It would help him. The water elemental mana and the natural elemental mana were already close, why not use the denser water elemental mana to help him break apart the natural mana.

This would require using the water elemental mana to pull from one end and pull the earth elemental mana with his own mana. It would be stressful to use two elemental manipulations in different directions. But possible. Now there was just the fact that he had to do it.
