Master Of None

Chapter 1736 1736. Three Hours

The short timeline seemed to be a lot shorter than the Rize or Fel archangel expected. However, they did not say anything in argument against that. Walker had already shown some of his steel and they didn't want to see what else he was capable of.

"You are using your authority better and better you know." Mordant laughed a little before sending off his dragonkin to help the others prepare. "Most at your age would be unable to use any form of intimidation that didn't rely on their blood."

The only skill that came to mind was the dragon's intimidation. "I thought that the dragon's intimidation skill was only used with a roar?" The fact that Walker had not realized he was using some skills instinctually or just out of situation made the other dragons smirk. They had all seen a newborn dragon make this mistake. They just didn't expect that Walker had been doing it so often at such a level without even noticing it.

"You are not raised as a dragon so you should have missed it. Every hatchling will eventually start to let their power flow in to their words. It is similar to using your words for a spall like many have to do to use a mastery skill. But it is specific to certain races. The high elves used to speak to plants or the every mana they used to enhance their understanding. Dragons use this to deter and create an intimidating feeling. Just having the dragon's intimidation skill is enough to start using this form of force."

Ventus explained it calmly. Knowing that she was a mother to three dragons currently made Walker understand that she had this exact conversation before. But now that it was him she was reminiscing on it with her own children.

"So I have been using a skill without realizing it. And since I use the skill at a lower level that's not trying to create a massive roar that forces my will on others, I use significantly less mana. Not to mention replenish that mana faster than I use it?" Walker saw a few nods of approval. He felt that his eyes had been opened a lot.

"I wonder what other skills I might use without realizing it." Walker started to ponder this while he casually gave orders here and there. It was mostly to a smaller group of soldiers that should be able to handle the battle with the wyverns. Mostly because having a larger force would draw more enemies and also because some of the soldiers needed to stay at the embassy to keep Genesis representation there.

"So you really just went and started telling everyone to get ready without telling Alice and I why you put us in charge?" Su knew exactly why she and Alice had been put in charge of light and healing mages.

"Who else would I want to keep my back covered? Alice can make the light bend to her will. That means that she can adapt to whatever drama occurs. It's the perfect ability to use against the Fel and Rize archangels who are not familiar with her. Then you have healing knowledge along with massive defensive potential. You can keep them safe while also keeping them in line if you go on the offensive. Not to mention that you are a mystery to the angels as well. You are part dragon now." Walker smiled softly while looking at Alice and Su. he knew they just wanted to hear some praise.

"Gil and Remey will be with me too though. They are going to handle some of the stronger wyverns. Gil can distract them with elemental arrows while Remey will easily keep them uncomfortable with her potions and different elemental knuckles. The biggest attempt will be around distraction and maybe some chaos."

''So that should mean that Elise and I will remain here? I would be representing Genesis as a whole. Correct?" Alma had already guessed Walker's next move. He wanted to make sure that someone that was already used to leading was at the embassy to collect any information that came regarding demons, wyverns, and the undead.

"Exactly. Both of you can act as the base of Genesis in the embassy. I will keep Onyx with me. He should be able to bind some wyverns if he had to with his size. It will be a good hidden trump card. Then Midnight is a dragon so I expect that she will come to face the queen with us. I have no idea what that will be like though." This was the truth. Walker had no idea what the wyvern queen could be doing or what her personality may be.

"Understood brother." Onyx shrank his size and returned to the tattoo form on Walker's body for the first time in a very long time. It was less of his favorite thing since he didn't require as much sleep as he used to compared to when he was younger. But he also liked to be ready to strike out at anything with his attacks on Walker's shoulder. But staying that way would give up his presence to an enemy.

"I am the first life mage reporting under the grand Fel empire. Please pardon me for my slow movements. I was preparing my robes." The angel that had just landed had unique robes. They were all stitched together with what seemed to be plant material. They also had very carefully stitched patterns depicting the entire cycle of death and birth of a tree across them.

"You are here faster than I believed. We have some time for you to tell me about what you do as a life mage." Walker was very glad that this life mage had already been here. It meant that he could have the chance to poke and prod the mind of someone that might be using life mana.

"Of course, I was told to fully cooperate with you as long as my commanding archangel does not give other orders. My main position will be to heal." It appeared that some very strict words had been used by the way that the life mage acted. But seeing that Walker was about to take some time to get some knowledge, everyone had left to prepare themselves. They also knew that Walker was not in need of much preparation himself.

"Tell me, what kind of mana do you use?" Walker looked at the angel. He saw that the tips of his feathers were a mix of brown and blue meaning he most likely had a water and earth affinity. But there were also little strands of a unique green. The same that appeared when healing magic was used.

"I have an ability to manipulate earth and water. From that I was able to stumble upon the growth skill set along with a regeneration skill that I can buff others with. That was what led me to research what that meant. I have touched the life mana and begun to find it within my body. Just by doing so I can use my skills at double the efficiency when growing plants, healing, and even improving the buffs I give to others. That is also how I was able to undergo a quest to leave behind my path as a forest mage to become a life mage."

"A forest mage, that sounds very unique. Wouldn't you have preferred to stay a forest mage?" Walker was curious. He knew that forest mage could one day control an entire forest. That alone was very powerful.

"I understand why you may think that. But as a forest mage, I would be limited. I was one of five within the same forest and only one of us would have become the true caretaker of that forest. I chose researching life itself and found that I could study it forever and still be in awe." This was a good answer that also seemed to make the life mage relax.

"And for now you can't control life so much as help it along? That sounds good to me. If you can help people heal and grow uniquely, I will not stop you from your work. I would like to see you gather some life mana though." Walker was sure that by witnessing it he would have some sort of epiphany or he would be able to remember the feeling.

"It's more of something in you than around you. Life is small and hidden to the eyes. In plants and little animals it is smaller. The more powerful the being the stronger it is within them. so, " The angel touched Walker and he felt something in his stir. "When a being is full of life, they can find that center and be able to manipulate it or grow it one day. It just depends on your affinities and how you find the life within you and the world around you. But even that is hard to explain. I need about another eighty years and I might have a guide for you."
