Master Of None

Chapter 1900 1900. Rune Focus

"That has to be it! There is a connection between the flames and the balance in the rune by breaking this section and carving a water rune here." Ezra had been rambling for some time as Walker and he carved runs. 

They had Gil standing prepared to fire whenever they made these runes. The papers used were made from special trees that allowed a better conductivity of most manas. Gil had been sent to run from side to side placing these papers with rune experiments on them. 

From these, Gil was in charge of firing arrow after arrow with different patterns carved on them. The goal was to allow the runes to take in his mana as he would let any magical arrow do when he fire it. From there, the rune would react to its copy and teleport from the air where Gil fired it to the target. 

This fairly simple endeavor had proved a failure the last forty six times. Specifically because when the runes would absorb the mana, they would break. The result was whatever elemental rune section of rune was used would cause a reaction with that elemental mana. 

This test was one that had taken some time. Adding in runes to just one section of the broken space rune had proved that making itn a flowing formation was impossible. The different manas being attached to the rune made it unbalanced. 

Now that the water and fire had been balanced, there was a flow of balanced mana s moving though the central space section of the rune. It was more of a confused rune to be clearer since it was not necessarily one rune anymore. 

This also flowed with the idea that they would need to allow all elemental manas to flow through the space rune. The reason for this was that those manas existed within a person. A living person. 

"I was wondering, what would happen if we made this rune activated by life mana? Every living thing has it in it, that way, the elemental manas will also be balanced by it." Walker was thinking of used the runes that the life mages used. 

These runes were not very developed or used by anyone else. Even the life mages from the Fel empire said that they had a very minimal study and very minimal usage since they did not have much effect. But in Walker's opinions, they were just not used properly with the right knowledge. 

"I think that if the life runes are researched more along with space runes, then there could be a healing formation. It's the same as jin cathedrals where they make items that use light elemental mana to heal. So why not add in that with the life mana rune that is known. It can be improved later." 

This idea was more than what Ezra was thinking. Gil had just been about to take the rune arrow and fire it before Walker snatched it away and Ezra began creating yet another paper. This time though, the pair had grabbed the paper and more tools. There were also a whole new set of inks made with different materials to represent different elemental manas. 

The process was becoming more in depth and Gil watched in awe. The formats of the runes copied some of the patterns of runes that Walker's younger sister had sewn in to their underclothes beneath their armor. It helped them naturally recover mana better but it was also a very stable rune. This rune was also taken from the origin runes and the elemental mage tower runes. all were working well together. 

While it was a surety that the runes would be even better studied by the time that the party returned to Genesis, this was still way above what the angels knew. They had lost some of their knowledge due to their own wars. This was what the knowledge in the Riuze empire was so closely guarded. Due to their elemental focus and the loss of knowledge, they had become too strict with their knowledge. 

The records according to some of the Rize people were too slim pickings. They lacked important documents that explained some runes while some of their books were written by those that believed it too important and they coded it. These codes were hard to follow since they used broken language instead of completed language. 

This left Walker with a mystery in what had been brought about when it was found that the Fel empire side was contributing more than the Rize empire side. They both still had the mentality that they wanted to be somewhat equal in all of this. Regardless, it had helped them look at more runes that Walker understood better than most people. 

'Due to the constant consecutive study of the runes and other manas, the skill rune speech has been learned. The skill rune speech is a skill used by a variety of races on the elemental planes due to their abilities to use elemental manas naturally. It is also a language that some must learn to ascend higher in their existence. 

Rune speech- passive

Using the elemental manas, carving runes becomes easier. It also helps the user to translate what the meanings behind certain more advanced runes, rune formations, and the study of runes is. 

There is a higher chance of creating new runes, rebuilding runes, and understanding rune mana flow when this skill is learned. The more information about runes that the user learns, the more useful this skill will be. The better the user knows certain forms of mana, the better this skill will be used.

This skill is not an enlightenment and will not instantly increase anything. It is all based on the user's knowledge.'

While Walker was surprised to see the specifics of this skill and how it was entirely based on multiple factors, he also felt that he had broken some unseen barrier. Like he had been forcing his mind full of rune theories and ideas for hours and it all suddenly started to fall in to place. 

It wasn't that Walker had suddenly become enlightened. It was more that someone had been stopping him from the next step. That his attempts to carve runes the same ways that he had seen had been held back because he had been shaky. Now it was like someone had removed his nerves and allowed him to be more open minded. 

This clarity was what he needed. "Stop what you're doing. I have an idea." Walker took a fresh arrow and some of the metal tools. His hands started mocking in unique patterns replicating some of the harder to carve runes he had seen and watched carved before. 

While his hands flowed much more smoothly than before, Gil recognized the runes. "Those are some of the runes that are on the outside of the mage tower. They help gather manas from the air and bring them inside the tower. It's why Genesis has more mana and increases the understandings of elemental mana for everyone living within the city." Gil was very proud to say this. He didn't care to notice how stunned the angels that heard this were. 

Out of all the things that some of the angels had heard about genesis, they didn't realize that even the manas in the air would be increased there. Having some rune formation that increased the ability to use elemental manas and to learn them was stunning. Something only they could dream of. Naturally, some angel researchers wanted to teleport to Genesis first and understand everything possible. 

'The skill high rune carving has been taken from the rune master system. The skill high rune carving has been learned due to the heightened and new understandings of runes through studies and constant experiences involving broken, false, and original runes. 

High runes carving- mana depends on use

The user is able to channel their manas and other manas around them to create various runes. There must be a certain understanding of the runes being carved, the mana flowing through the rune, and the intention of the rune when carved. 

Due to this skill being higher than the average rune carving skill in the world, this skill is considered one of the heist rune carving skills used with tools. This skill boasts a better chance of creating rune formations that are balanced due to natural instinct. There is also a significantly lower chance of being harmed when the runes fail. 

The speed of carving runes is increased while the time to activate runes formations is decreased. The runes also cost less mana to carve.'

Walker didn't notice this skill. He had hyper focused himself in every aspect on the runes he was carving and how to connect them to the broken space rune. But the more that had created runes around the broken space rune, the more that everyone could see how they could connect. How the space rune could be completed by the elemental runes all around it by using life runes to balance the broken sections. It was a full masterpiece. 

"How can the runes all be one puzzle piece like this. They are all created by… there's no way that… I need to see it bigger." Ezra started to copy what walker was making to put it down on a clear and large record. It was about to become a formation that went down in his research notes forever.
