Master Of None

Chapter 700 - 700. Changing Flames

Remey was standing idly for a moment as she took everything in. However, she flicked her hand and a small dark red flame began to grow in her hand. It wasn't much and the fire spirit was clearly assisting the process. "This is alchemic fire. It's best for making potions. I can make as much as you want now. Do you want it?" She had the feeling that the alchemic fire was a good gift to share with the fire spirit. She didn't want it to feel that it had bonded with her for nothing since it didn't have a dwelling item being made just yet. 

"My fire? Your fire? Our fire!" The spirit seemed to be even more excited than before and Walker wondered how it was interpreting all this so easily. However, when he glanced at the other fire spirit he knew that this was its' doing. It had shared more than he expected with the newly awakened fire spirit and pushed it to Remey with the promises of flames. 

The fire spirit moved to the flames in Remey's hands and started to change its own flames. The color of its flames became darker and more red. The mana it released around it was closer to the mana that Remey released and the two became closer than before. 

As the change occurred everyone could only watch in awe. Even Zephyr was lost as to what was going on until the fire spirit moved away from Remey having taken on all the characteristics of the alchemic flames.  "Our Fire!" The mana reverberated through the room and Remey couldn't stop smiling.

"It absorbed my alchemic flame! It's just like alchemy fire. We are going to make the best potions and fight the best and be the best!" The two were in their own world and Walker knew that it was better to just move on than interrupt the two. 

"That was strange but really cool. I think that fire spirit is an alchemy fire spirit now. How awesome is that?" Gil nudged Walker to get his attention and found that Walker was already directing both earth and darkness elemental mana toward the last two dormant spirits. 

"It was a very big surprise. I'm pretty sure it completely stunned Zephyr. She looks lost." Walker glanced at Zephyr who was examining the alchemy fire spirit with curiosity. She had known about the ice spirit but now she was lost. She had very little knowledge on how a fire spirit could adapt and change its flames in such a way. 

The elder was already preparing and starting to heat some of the metals he would use to make all the different detachable knuckles for Remey's modified gloves. He had made many of them and it would be faster than any of the previous forging experiences yet. Until it came to the glove modification of course. For that, he would need the new fire spirits' assistance. 

Midnight, when did you bond with the fire spirit that has the dwelling core?" Su's surprised voice broke through the room. The fore spirit was resting on her back now that it had whispered and successfully helped Remey and the newly awakened fire spirit. 

Midnight huffed and raised her head a little taller. "Sister says it only makes sense that two dragons form a bond." Su was confused until she remembered that the golem that the fire spirit dwelling core was inside was going to be a dragon style golem. 

Su laughed a little and shook her head, "It does make sense. I guess you two are a little more than just bound if you are both dragons." Su was wondering how they would get along since the golem was going to be slightly bigger than Midnight but at the same time, she knew that Midnight would one day dwarf the golem. 

The earth elemental and darkness elemental mana started to grow in the room. The earth spirit and dark spirit that were holding tight to Walker had started to help him awaken the last two spirits. It was clear that they would awaken just as fast as the others. 

Walker didn't have any intention of asking these two to join him in his quest since it would be an insult to the spirits that he had already had accept his request of the same element. However, he did wonder if Onyx was going to reach out to a spirit to join him. It would make sense that a dark spirit would bond with Onyx since he could hide in the shadows at will.

"Brother, the spirits." Walker was brought back from his thoughts to realize he had sent a lot of elemental mana to the earth and darkness spirit. The two dormant spirits were awakening at the same time. 

The room was turbulent with earth and darkness elemental mana making everyone unsteady. The ground trembled slightly as the earth spirit pulled the earth up to form its body and look about the room. The shadows arched as the dark spirit fell in to them and popped out here and there to look at everyone. The dark and earth spirits that were with Walker rushed to them and started to whisper to them. The earth spirit with Su went to them as well and did the same. 

"Hey, I think they might want to focus on what the elder can do for them. Unless they want to leave the city that is." Walker made it clear that those were the options so that the spirits wouldn't promise them things he couldn't do. 

Soon the earth spirit came to rest on the hammer next to the elder. The dark spirit, however, sank in to the shadows and Walker couldn't find it. "Brother, it will come with us." Onyx spoke up and the darkness spirit he had lost track of was in Onyx's shadow. "It seems to like my shadow and I will let it stay." The spirit had not bonded with Onyx but it was clear that it enjoyed the slightly denser shadows Onyx had because that was where he stored away his hidden larger body. 

"Alright, just let me know if you need anything." Walker accepted this but wondered what would become of the two befriending each other. For now, he would just chalk it up to Onyx's unique skill at making friends with anyone.
