Master Of None

Chapter 2312: 2312. All Cleaned Up



Walker used some mana to forcefully cool an area of the lava fields. It wasn't perfect, but it was enough to manage. Enough to rest. Especially with three dragons in their full dominator dragon form.

"That was a good catch back there, Ventus." out of everyone, it was Ignus who said this. He was impressed with her speed and usage of wind mana. She has really improved within the wind elemental planes. It wasn't normal for her to be able to control wind to pull along or even catch a fully grown dragon.

"The exhaustion will only be temporary. The battle here will be forever." Her pride was shining through, however, she was looking at Rise who had gone well beyond her own limits. It was something that ventus had felt instinctively and respected immensely.

None of them had expected Rise was ready to go this far. She had used almost every ounce of her own light mana to purify the lands here. Especially in the end when the largest plume of smoke erupted due to pressure.

"She will be fine. The amount of light mana that she used and absorbed just to throw it in to a purification magic skill completely exhausted her mind and body. I can tell you one thing, she just took a major step in to getting stronger."

Walker could sense it. Cruise had somehow managed to expand the amount of light mana that she could condense and store within her body through all of this. It might have just been what she could do naturally as a light dominator dragoon. Awakening some form of what she was as a whole.

Regardless, this level of growth had more than led to her needing more rest. Simply put, her body was also growing and adjusting. She needed to take the time to be able to acclimate to this new aspect of herself and through slumber she could manage that.

"You too Ventus. You will need a significant amount of rest. You called on the wind spirits and even a few wind spirit race members who were within the skies naturally. That was exceptional. I did not imagine you had learned to commune with the spirit race and the wind spirits in the same way that they are able to commune through wind mana."

"I did nothing unexpected of myself as a royal dragon. I learned this from an older wind dominator dragon. No, a wiser wind dominator dragon. Many things of what we know of ourselves were lost and I am beginning to find some of them."

With her words, a flash of curiosity and jealousy came through Ignus's eyes. Clearly, he also felt that he should be able to make some changes. Also be able to learn some of these things as he grew. But he had yet to do so. That meant he might be behind? Something like that felt impossible.

"We should focus on that monster. It's not dead." Ignus growled out trying to change the subject. But to be fair, Walker's mind was also on the volcanic horror.

"You're right, it's walking towards us right now. I thought that the pressure of that magma would have killed it. But it only lost five of its legs and shattered some of that magma carapace. I doubt it has much fighting ability, and it might die soon. But it still sees us as enemies and knows that we attacked its nest."

As much as Walker wanted to call this ancient monster a true monster, he also understood that it was just following its instincts. Its natural instincts told it where to go to create its nest. How to protect its nest. What to do when it was attacked. These were things ingrained within what it was.

While it did not have the intelligence to become a race, it should still be respected for what it

was.

"Don't think about stopping me. I will handle this with one attack now that we are able to use water mana away from the volcano." The rumbling of the erupting volcano was already out of Walker's focus.

The pressure had been relieved and the volcano would calm down for the next few weeks. The toxic ash and smoke would also change in to a more natural flow which the land could handle. As time went on, the lava fields would return to what they should be but not grow any more than what they were. Everything could properly flow as it should be within the world here.

Ignus stepped back as he sensed Walker pulling water mana from around them. He could tell that Walker was channeling a significantly larger amount of mana than what he would normally use. But it was also clear that Walker had held back out of fear he would do more damage to the land and the volcano while fighting.

The careful control of how Walker had influenced the earth mana within the stone that the volcanic horror had created. The careful control of wind mana to buff everyone. The careful control to use spatial mana to move everyone further and faster. All of that careful control had been because he knew he could react and cause harm in this delicate situation. The volcano was delicate.

Right now though, that delicate thing was gone. That hurdle was no longer in front of him. So why would he hold back.

The water started to take the shape of an arrow, but the wind also started to condense. The form of a bow made of wind mana took shape allowing for the water arrow condensing in to dense ice was something that Ventus and Ignus both held their breath looking at.

The density of mana, even with the fact that fire mana and earth mana were the most prevalent here, was shocking. They had not grasped just how much more in tune with manas that walker had gotten as of late. They knew he was still growing rapidly, but this was more than what they had even begun to expect.

"I will not allow you to suffer. I will put you down and bring your body back to nourish Genesis. Your young will only be hunted when they could cause the destruction of the land and harm to others. That is why I am using a form of the ancient elf magic that Gil showed me in one of their records."

The dense ice arrow was propelled at the hobbling along volcanic horror. The moment that it pierced the damaged carapace, the ice was heated causing the steam and water mana to erupt outwards. The shattered remains defeated the weakened volcanic horror in less than a few blinks of an eye. And even that was still not enough for Walker.

His mind was on the fact that he had been unable to use any attacks which could have finished the battle faster. What if they had not been able to use the pressure from the volcano as an attack? If he was in a similar situation in the future he might not be able to do anything. He could have to choose between leaving a dangerous situation causing much more damage or cause more damage for the long term good.

Both would be bad choices, but what would the right one be? He couldn't be sure that this would not happen again.

"That was an ancient elf magic?" Ventus was tired, but she was still fairly amazed. She had heard that the ancient elves, the high elves, had been powerful in their historical records. So much so that any elf weaker than them in bloodline basically worshiped the ground they walked on. But this? It made sense now.

"Their records only describe the way they used their magic. To me, that was a dual elemental attack using wind as a propelling force mimicking a bow of the hearts and an arrow of water made copying the desire to pierce the sky from blue ocean to blue sky. It was hard to

understand."

As much as he wanted to say that he might not have gotten it right, Walker knew that the elves were quickly learning how to use such skills. Sooner rather than later, this might be a commonplace event to witness. Well, not fighting an ancient monster, but using spells like

this.

"This should solve the problems here. Won't it?" Ignus felt that they had been lucky not to have any real issues other than the awakening of another ancient monster. This one could fit in to the ecosystem of the lands, but others might not. Compared to their last threat, this has just been an issue they could fix with some effort and teamwork.

"I would say it is. We can go back to Genesis and focus on the Sigil continent's issue. That unmoving cloud might be something worse."
