Master Of None

Chapter 1437: 1437. Claws

Hours passed them by while watching the magic battles. No one in the audience realized that the day had even been coming to an end. What was even more shocking, was that there were already battles of non magical fights beginning. The way Scylla organized it made it so that there was absolutely no gap between the battles.

”I think I know how the demi-humans do their real tournaments.” Walker caught himself falling asleep out of tiredness. He felt that he had been awake way too long.

”The demi-humans are known for sometimes having week long tournaments. Their longest ever done is over a month of battle to decide a general.” Ibis had more knowledge on this topic which presented a new light to Walker.

”That sounds like a good event to have. Many battles that would bring morale much higher. There would be a constant reason to improve radically during that month.” Mordant considered the same thing being done in his village for the single reason that he might be able to push his warriors to greater strengths.

”I want to see the battles where people can use both magical and physical skills together. It should be more interesting since even Remey was joining git. The only reason I didnʼt is that I have other things I want to attend to.” Gil didnʼt want to be dragged in to the battle against some of the enforcers. He felt that it was better to let them show their archery prowess instead of him.

He also didnʼt feel like fighting it out against so many others in front of a very large crowd, but he wouldnʼt say that.

”If I were to join then I would be unable to use my skills properly. I would have to stop and treat everyone that I used my blue ivy on right away or they might suffer severe damage. It would be unfair to the others if I did such a thing. Using normal plants would just cause me to be defeated more easily.

I believe I should speak with Remey about lants I might start to cultivate for my skills.” Alma was in an internal struggle over this.

”You can probably get a lot of the herbalists to help you out. Between some of the herbalists and farmers, you might be able to get some of the faster growing herbs crossbred for you to use.” Walker thought that this was a wise choice since there were so many people fully focused on the growth of plants in Genesis after the alchemy competition.

”There is one of Ignusʼs warriors. One of his claw users.” Mordant pointed out an agile red scaled dragonkin with impeccable claws. It appeared that the warrior was facing an armored opponent from the adventurerʼs guild.

”Claw users? What is different about him as a claw user and someone who uses metal claws attached to some sort of gauntlet?” This was a genuine question. Walker had not studied any of the close combat techniques that used claws because Remey handled the close combat hand to hand battles. It was her style and expertise.

”The dragon claw skills are hard to learn because it relies on strengthening the body. The dragonkin that works towards using those techniques eat a strict diet, train for many more hours than others, and must have incredible resistances. They have a special place above most warriors. They even can move to different villages to train against others with the same field of study.

They are one of the dragonkin warrior prides. That warrior, in particular, is new to the arts and is about to learn a lot.”

”So they are like the rare warriors that become much better through extremely hard work and pressure. Kind of like a diamond.” Gil made the relation to the diamonds that the dwarves said were only created under great pressure of volcanoes and lava.

”Thatʼs a good way to look at it. However, they will hold a great deal of responsibility. They face the strongest foes in the wilds when out hunting for food or materials. They will fight the strongest warriors when villages need to come to an accord. However, they are rewarded for their work.” Mordant watched the battle begin and silenced himself to watch one of Ignusʼs dragon claw warriors.

The warrior took a stance with their claws facing forward. Walker could clearly see that the claws were carefully filed to a point. But what surprised him was the fact that the claws seemed to extend when the dragonkin warrior flexed. It was a unique quality that they trained to become a dragon claw warrior and better use their system.

The movements seemed like they were ingrained within the dragonkinʼs muscles. The moment that the armored adventure tried to swing his two handed ax at the dragonkin, an amazing event occurred. The dragonkin slashed at the ax causing deep scratches to appear. The entire crowd was silenced seeing that the dragonkin had easily sliced through some of the hardest iron.

The moves that the dragonkin used were not excessively fast so the armored adventurer was able to dodge. The places where the claws grazed him were very visible. ”Stop fooling around and show them what you learned!” Ignus roared out since it appeared that Rorick was antagonizing him while they sat at the top of the coliseum watching the matches.

The change was like night and day. Sparring was off the table and the dragonkin became feisty like the hottest flames. He jumped forward and rolled around the adventurers slashing at the weak points of the armor. In mere minutes the shredded iron armor fell to the ground along with the two handed ax.

”Thatʼs why even the youngest of the dragon claw warriors are put at the front of a battle. They have keen eyes for weak points and will strike as if their lives depended on it. That adventurer is right to admit defeat.” Mordant spoke calmly. He was proud to see such a sight.
