Chapter 401 - 401. Second Experiment
Walker thought about this for a second before agreeing. He had no idea how the skill would manifest when he changed the shape of the mouldable crystal ball. The only shape he had tried was the spear because it was the base shape for the pure dark spear. If he managed to show off a sword then what else could he made it in to? An ax? The weapon possibilities flooded through his mind.
"Let's give a sword a try first then move on. Where is the crystal mage? I think he would be interested." Walker didn't see any earth mages at all here yet.
"Ther earth mages went to celebrate the breakthrough that their young crystal mage helped with. It was his first time working on a fusion magic attack and they were all very proud of him. They must have been up late and need more rest." The light mage knew that this would happen, but it was only natural for mages to do this after a great day.
"I see, that must have been a lot for one day too. From watching to helping in the blink of an eye." Walker laughed a little making him sound like an old man. The other mages also laughed a bit but were also focused on something else.
"That dragon and snake that came with you are you other party members right? Can we meet them?" The fire mage had stepped forward and hesitantly asked. He had yet to meet a dragon and found it very intriguing.
"Sure thing. That over there is my youngest brother Onyx, he is an abyssal serpent. He feeds on the light elemental mana. And this here is Midnight, she is a young dragon who I wanted to bring here to gain some of the elemental mana around. She is having a growth spurt and needs all the nutrition she can get." Walker was always proud to introduce his party since he saw them as family.
Walker noticed Onyx raise his head and look at the mages. He would usually greet them but for some reason was very reserved today. Walker worried a little but didn't press that matter, if Onyx wasn't feeling well he believed that he would speak up.
Midnight however never missed a chance to show off. She stood up tall and extended her wings to show off her full might. Walker saw that her wings had gained even more muscles and had a few more inches to their span. He knew she was growing fast but this was a crazy speed. He knew this must have something to do with the new bloodline and the new system, but her couldn't ask her a million questions here.
The mages were impressed seeing her actions and wanted to examine her more closely. "Can I ask what kind of fire breath she has? I know most dragons have a form of breath attack which is very powerful as they grow."
The mages grew more excited at this and Midnight was about to immediately use her decaying breath skill before Walker cut in, "She has the decaying breath skill and she isn't going to use it here unless there is a target we can deal with before it spreads. Right Midnight?"
Midnight stopped building up her attack and bobbed her head in accordance. She wanted to show off but was easily stopped since she knew it could cost her the meat that Walker had promised her. If she angered him and he didn't forgive her right away she could miss out on the feast she wanted. She had yet to realize that Walker would still reprimand her and give her what she wanted though, it was just better for her not to realize it.
"I knew that it was darkness element. I could see it from the stage when the queen gave her speech." The dark mage was acting very high and mighty since the other mages had told him that he might be wrong.
"And what of the white in her scales? That has to be light elements." The light mage anted to argue it back and forth but the dark mage was having the last word and continued on the battle.
Walker wanted to tell them that the white was bone but he realized it was better for them to think it was the light element since Midnight could not eat every elemental crystal instead of just the darkness elemental crystals like she could before the system upgrade.
"Sorry I am late sir hero. It doesn't look like I have missed too much though." The crystal mage had returned to the training area and immediately greeted Walker.
"Ah, welcome back. I heard you were celebrating. I hadn't realized it was such a big occasion. Congratulations." Walker said his piece which made the crystal mage act a little more sheepish, but soon enough he too was awestruck looking at Midnight.
While the mages were again focused on her, Onyx was also making fast friends with the light mages. He was actively talking with them but Walker could still tell he was less active. He started in a tight coil and wasn't moving much.
After a short time, the spell swords returned with the light and water elemental spell sword. She confidently approached Walker and the crystal mage while her fellow spell swords carried in some of the crystal training dummies. "I brought a few of the older crystal training dummies for today's experiments. I thought it was the least I could do since you appeared interested in taking the remaining pieces for your own experiments."
Walker was a little touched that they had thought to bring so many, even if they were the older ones. "Thank you, I am not sure how many of the crystal swords we will make, and even if I can't assist the entire time my friend from the earth side of magic will be open for orders." The crystal mage was shocked to hear this but couldn't argue with the hero.
