Master Of None

Chapter 1072: 1072. Carrying The Weight

ʼThe skill natural sealing has been discovered by the user and the nature spirit Fleur. The skill natural sealing has been automatically learned by the user. The user will be forced in to a hibernation state due to the stress of receiving the high skill natural sealing arts from the sealing arts carving. The user does not meet the requirements to learn all secrets within the sealing arts carving.

The world is sealing the connection through the nature spirit Fleur. The world will call upon the true master of the sealing tablet. The true hero Walker will slumber.ʼ

Before Walker could speak, the tablet began to glow brightly. It seemed to release a large pulse of natural mana and the glowing stopped. The tablet became just a hunk of metal while the rune darkened. Fleur melted in to the spirit mark on Walkerʼs back to help him understand the natural sealing arts.

Seeing that this change had happened both Su and Alm received a quest to carry Walker with them. They werenʼt sure what was happening, but with their increased senses they knew that Walker was understanding something with natural mana. Not only had they felt the mana around them, increase, but they could feel the high amount of mana coming toward them. They just didnʼt know the cost of this.

”I have seen this happen before with some items. There was a spell sword made of elemental mana crystals in the vaults. When it was handed down to an elf that could use it, the sword shattered. The mana drilled in to their body and the elf was unconscious for a full year. Once they woke up they crafted their own crystal sword without having any skills prior to that.

They had forgotten all the skills they used before and began to practice a crystal sword style. They called in an inheritance. I would guess this tablet is the same and Walker is learning something from it.”

Having this knowledge to put Su at ease was good. ”Alma…what if Walker doesnʼt wake up for a year?” Su felt this possibility hit her. If this was the case then Genesis would be more than lost. They would lose all chance to save the city. The panic that she showed Alma on her face was enough to make Alma realize the error in what she had said.

”You know that a year to an elf is the same as a month or something. Time isnʼt the same. We live a lot longer than a human and you and Walker and Midnight are all dragon related or something right? Dragons can live longer than an elf so maybe he will wake up earlier or later or maybe…” Alma was panicking too, she wasnʼt sure how to say the right thing.

After seeing that Alma was also freaking out, Su managed to force herself to take a few deep breaths. She was forcing her body to slow itself and calm her heart. If she lost it here then they would never get back safely.

”The sun started to rise. I have the map and can check the mountains for where we are. Just start packing up the bed rolls and cover the coals in sand. We are going to travel very carefully. We can both support Walker. I can use some of the leftover sticks from the fire as a frame and make a quick cot to drag.

I learned it at the cathedral.” The plan was simple. They made the camp look as if they had never been there. Su showed off her speed and had a cot to drag behind her in an instant using one of her twin shields and sticks with a bed roll.

Alma was stuck carrying most of their camping gear while Su was dragging Walker. The spot they had left Scylla was fairly close and they were sure they could reach it by pushing themselves to move without rest. Walker had the majority of water stored in his spatial magic storage. This meant that they were on their own and would need to depend on Scylla when they returned to her.

The good thing was that Scylla should be fully rested and ready to leave.

”The mana he is pulling in keeps increasing. I think we are going to see him using a new skill when he wakes up. I just hope that he doesnʼt have to pay a high price to use it.” The fear that Walker would need to sacrifice something big like the sealing sage had made them worry. However, they did not realize that the sealing sage had been very far from properly using the skill.

They also didnʼt know that Walker was being made to learn the natural sealing through natural mana and the connection to the metal tablet.

”We can avoid any monsters that show up. I feel like the chaos of that fight earlier has attracted everything dangerous around.” Su had barely said this when she saw a large plume of sand shoot in the air from far behind them.

”I would say you are right and that we should move faster.” Alma grabbed the end of the cot that Walker was resting on. They were both carrying a lot and they decided to just drip the rest of the unnecessary supplies. They could replace it. They just needed to pull Walker along.

Their feet were slipping as they went over and down the sand dunes. Sweat had pooled on their brow before dripping down to the and. They both swore that the sand sizzled when the sweat hit it. But that didnʼt matter. They were getting closer to the mountains and they could rest when Scylla met them. They would just need to hold on to the ride back toward Genesis.

The worst case would be that Scylla had to carry them all the way back if they were going to pass out from the heat.
