Master Of None

Chapter 1617 1617. Perfect For You

Walker was sitting back on a chair that one of the dwarves had brought over to his work table. The necklace he had just made was resting on a clean black cloth to show it off. This was the best way that any jeweler would polish something. They would put it on an opposing color fabric to ensure that it was absolutely perfect all the way around.

"I would like to say this is the best possible thing I have ever made, but It might be better than that. I was really in the flow to get this done. I tried my best to copy everything that the wandering blacksmith does when he makes something with my help." Walker knew that this necklace was very good.

The small shimmers of light within the mana gems proved that there was a perfect mix of light elemental mana that would always be there. He could even sense the natural mana that had taken up a home within the mana gems while he had worked on it. This was a surprising event. He had not intentionally stored any but the gems had done so from the ambient mana.

It wasn't the same as a mana gem or set of equipment that could store mana through a rune carved on it. This was simply because this mana had been trapped there while it was being made. Although, this clearly made the necklace come out better.

There were also the white flames that had purified the metals with light elemental mana. The heat that it brought was intense enough that even the forge looked like it had worn away a year's worth of tough built on slag. Furthermore, the silver metal ingot used had also been very close to the light elemental mana while forging because of the white flames. It had taken on more light elemental affinity than it had naturally.

'Natural light gem necklace

Def +1, Condensed Light elemental mana +30, condensed natural mana +30

Natural mana and light elemental mana were extremely important to the forging of this accessory. While sacrificing any other boost in defense or magical strength, the mana storage ability is one above the rest.

While the storage does not seem large at first, it is for condensed light and natural mana. This is due to the multiple natural light gems within the necklace. Because of this, the mana s can be stored with higher purity making them last longer for the wearer.'

"Overall, I would say it's a success." Walker read out the all around appraisal. He had a soft smile because he could feel his aching arms. The surrounding blacksmiths felt that they had just watched an amazing show. They had not seen the white flames used by just anyone. White flames were usually due to purely heat.

However, as professional blacksmiths that had learned this for generations, they knew that the white flames were more unique. They could never use the light elemental mana to forcefully boost the heat due to natural mana control. It was something that only Walker or another could do. It was something spectacular and if they could manage it, they would be deemed a genius among geniuses.

"I wish to have one of those like it. If you say that natural mana can increase my abilities, then I will want the natural light gems added. I expect that you will be able to assist the blacksmiths creating this since there are some that are still learning from your wandering blacksmith." Rise just looked at Walker calmly. She had to take advantage of something that would allow her to get stronger faster.

The ability for a dragon to increase the strength of their attacks or just their usage of their specific elemental man was a great boon. Rise could only see that the addition of natural mana in the same way Walker did here was ideal. She could use it to draw in condensed light elemental mana that would be usable by her. How could that be bad? But she was not going to take from Alice in front of her. She may be a dragon but taking from a weaker being like it was nothing was an insult to life itself and a stain on her pride.

"I will help out when I can. I am sure that a few rumors will spread. I can't escape the fact that I will have to make more natural mana gems." Walker knew that it would be a lot of hard work in the future. Yet, he felt it was a very good thing. If people relied on the natural mana that he put in to mana gems, then they would slowly adapt to higher amounts of natural mana. From there, even more system users of natural mana may be born. A great thing indeed.

"Alice, what do you think? You are so quiet?" As much as Walker wanted to place it directly on Alice's neck, she was frozen, staring at the necklace. It seemed that she was completely stuck.

"She is just stunned that you would be able to make something so beautiful and useful. Her heart is beating too fast for her to speak. You have effectively stunned my new saintess." Horizon seemed to have left Alice's spirit mark at some point and was looking down from above Walker. No one had even noticed him doing so, even Rise was surprised that he managed to sneak past her.

"But that's a good thing. Almost as good as this necklace. It's ideal for some small reforging in to those spirit forged things I have been told about. It can be my resting place in the future. Just learn to carve some runes and I will take it." Horizon just floated lazily around the forge after speaking. There was a slight mischievous aura around him.

"It's too good…How can I wear it?" Alice finally spoke up with her voice barely louder than a mousse could be. She didn't feel that she should be able to take something made with so much effort. She may have helped to a degree but when she looked at the necklace she was too stunned. It was just too perfect.

The silver glint of light affinity metal was perfect for anyone to wear. It would naturally pair with light elemental mana. The natural light gems were something that Alice knew did not exist anywhere else. They were too precious. A perfect gem that would help her in everything that he did that revolved around her light elemental mana controlling abilities. Too perfect.

"I doubt you can't take it. I made it for you and you will have it as long as you want it." Walker didn't hesitate to stand up. He could ignore some soreness to clean his hands in a nearby bucket of water before grabbing the necklace.

Alice didn't even have the will to resist as Walker moved a little closer to her and clasped the natural light gem necklace around her neck. He could feel her breath on him as he did so making his face turn a brilliant shade of red. However, he was calm as could be even though at this distance he could hear the pounding of Alice's heart.

Walker knew that he and Alice had not been able to spend a lot of time alone together. They had been too busy. But somehow, Walker felt that this had increased the strength of their relationship. They had been proud to see the other getting stronger while busy. Something that could only be said by people that had strong feelings.

"It also looks perfect on you. Like it was made for you or something." Walker saw Alice's face begin to light up as he said this. She didn't let Walker pull away and instead, she grabbed him and squeezed him in to a hug with all her might. If Walker was not stronger than Alice he was sure that he might pop from the pure happiness within her hug.

"This is a normal human thing. Very odd that wrapping your arms around one another has been considered a show of affection. I can understand the touching of lips since that shows weakness and openings as a sign of trust. But this is just different." Rise was mumbling to herself. She still did not grasp why other races do the things they do. But most dragons and dragonkin would find themselves wondering the same things having lived more isolated lives.

The fact that many people were still around dawned on Alice and Walker before they separated from each other and tried to pretend that they were acting normally. It seemed that this was what the dwarves were waiting for. The flood of questions came like a broken dam.
