Master Of None

Chapter 1157: 1157. Hot Blooded

The pair were still chatting as they walked inside the cathedral. Walker was looking around but didnʼt see Alice or Su meaning they were in the back courtyard training. However, there seemed to be very few injured or sick around. ”I can see you looking around. We have been slower today. It seemed that after that cart incident people are actually paying attention to their safety.

I would say that they want to be in top form for the next few months.” It was definitely the competitions that spawned this care for safety. Those that had been injured had fallen behind.

”Safety should be important all the time. But, I canʼt be angry that people are focusing on it because of that. As long as itʼs focused on. Does that mean you have had a lot of different tasks to work out?” It was expected that the cathedral would have other projects when they were slower.

”Yes, we have been able to send some people out to visit villages near us. We also sent a small group from here and Diamond to the northern city. They should be able to see the grand cathedral and much more experienced master healers. It will bring this cathedral to much higher heights. I just wish the journey was shorter.

It will take half the year.” The high priest wasnʼt happy to be missing people for so long but he knew the value of such a trip.

”Huh, good for them. I forget about the cities past the desert on the other shores. Itʼs nice that people are able to go toward the ocean and take boats up the coast again. That desert was not a fun place to go.” If he had to go to the desert again, Walker wasnʼt sure how he would handle it. He only saw a small fraction of the danger the last time he was there.

In all honesty, he had been extremely lucky in his rushed journey.

”Again! Hit harder!” Su shouted in hot blooded strength as Onyx whipped his tail down toward her shield. He had been the one testing her shield since Alice was resting and checking on the heavenly serpent egg.

The strike of Onyxʼs tail was nothing to laugh at. Even though he was using his shadow to restrict his size, he could still hit with tremendous force. This meant that he could push Su back a decent distance with her defense. The only downside was that he would be unable to follow up attacking since he suffered some backlash.

Just because a monster was higher in stats than a human or other race did not mean that they could use those stats the same way. Most of the other races had learned to focus their strengths and weaknesses in some way whereas a monster was just naturally strong in an unfocused manner.

It was why Midnight and Onyx were not unstoppable forces even though they were technically the strongest within the party.

However, Walker was too busy watching to think about these things. He had seen a small amount of light start to condense on Suʼs shield. She didnʼt have the mana controlling skills that Walker did so it was very impressive that she was able to make this happen. She had shared a bond with Midnight unlike Walkerʼs. This made sure that she had an expanded elemental affinity like Midnightʼs.

When Su charged toward Onyx the next time it was clear that there was a slight light shield around her twin shields before she slammed them together. It seemed that she had started to use her shield bash skill and charge forward with it. It was beginning to be more than just a light shield skill. It was turning in to a combination skill the way that Su was training.

She wasnʼt just using her mind, she was letting her instinct take control of what she was doing while training and it was obviously paying off.

Seeing this convinced Walker that he could help a little. He started to use his grand elemental manipulation skill to force the light elemental mana around the back courtyard of the cathedral to surround Su. She felt this change and she was able to grasp on to it without even distracting herself. The results spoke for themselves.

Light started to condense over the twin shields that Su had put together. Walker saw the scrapes and bruises from her training healing slightly. It was an interesting effect to have. Yet, this was not all that was happening. Su was able to move with her shield close to the ground leaving no gaps for any attacks to go under her.

This protected her feet when she began to charge forward with the shields facing Onyx.

Her cry of power rang out again and Walker felt that his blood was boiling. This was more than just Su yelling. It was a cry for power from the blood she had obtained and the changes her body had undergone. It was close to a dragonʼs roar like Walker and Midnight were able to do.

In the next moment, Su collided with Onyxʼs tail and Onyx was the one forced back. The light elemental mana on her shield fell away but Su was standing tall while trying to catch her breath. ”Shield charge and shield bash combo skill with a light shield addition? You really had to go all out and surprise me.” Walker praised the combination that used not one, but four skills.

”And you even started to use dragonʼs intimidation. Your roar might make Midnight feel she needs to compete.” He cast a healing skill to help Su recover while she calmed herself and looked around. She had unknowingly attracted the attention of more than just Walker and the high priest. Many of the healers had come to watch her training and looked in awe.
