Master Of None

Chapter 2469: 2469. Changes in Power

”Mordant, I didnʼt think that you would ask for me so soon.” The curiosity in Onyxʼs voice was clear since he wasnʼt making any effort to hide it.

When he had found that Mordant returned to rest near the naturally formed dark elemental rune, Onyx had been glad. This meant that everything was handled with the appearance of witches and the forging of an alliance with them.

If there had been any issues she would have gone back to help Walker. He would have sensed the need through their bind. Instead, he felt there was confidence and accomplishment. Having Mordant here just shared some information and assurance.

”I returned to rest here and understand the mana affinity I have even more. The newest race that will join Genesis understands mana like the naturally formed runes better but not as a pure form, instead as a mixed form with other manas. It was strange.”

There was an almost listless look in Mordantʼs eyes while he looked at the naturally formed dark rune. He felt he had not progressed enough and that his focus on just dark mana might be the reason.

He had seen the ways that Onyx used light mana and how it influenced dark mana. He had seen how dark mana influences the light to make shadows. But he could meld in to shadows even though it was not perfectly dark mana. It made him wonder what the liens were to mix and use skills that would incorporate other mana sin to his dark mana.

What he also dwelled on was his ability to melt in to the shadows and move through them. He was able to do this and even carry others. While it was technically a space separate from the world it was also a risky area that if he traveled too deeply in to he would be fighting the chaotic space between it and the darkness elemental plane.

Something that he wondered about was how he was somehow able to travel through it faster. Wouldnʼt that mean he was using dark mana to influence space? Walker had mentioned that before and also done similar things to push people forward or teleport in small means.

All together, He was realizing that the way he used dark mana was very powerful, so much so that he might be inadvertently manipulating other manas around him with it. He had just not taken the time to study the effects of the other manas around him enough because he had been hyper focused on just the way that the dark mana acted.

This blindness to other manas had left him without the full idea and answers to why dark mana would act a certain way. He could only say that he had hit a waybill and needed more dark mana and purer dark mana. That wasnʼt the answer though. He saw it now.

”You have always been able to hide in the shadows. Your full body hides there. I am sure that you are using both light and dark mana which you control innately to manipulate space mana. I believe I am doing the same when I travel in to the dark shadows and in to that place full of chaos before I could try and force my way in to the dark elemental planes. I would like you to help me.”

”You have always been the dragon that accepts us and everyone the most. Current may have been the first to take a chance but you were ready to embrace everything openly. While you did not do so within yourself to the same level that others did, you are now and that is enough.” Onyx slowly withdrew his entire body from his shadow.

The length and size of his entire body was many times greater than the last time Mordant had seen it. Even Walker would be shocked by the additional density of scales and extra twenty feet of length that Onyx had grown.

All of this was because he had spent time around the purer and natural manas from naturally formed rune. And he had been able to mix them within his body the very same ways that he had seen the naturally formed rune for light and darkness, the first naturally formed dual elemental rune.

All of this came together in to his growth and also his very own expansion in understanding of his own affinities and how he could balance them better with who he was and the bloodline he was creating for his future generations. The race that he was resonated with every single step he made toward being better at using his innate talents.

”You should have felt how the dark mana and light mana clash when I do so. I never felt it until I became much stronger, it was an innate skills I awakened because of my need for it and I never worried about using it.”

”Now that I understand, I can see a chance to manipulate the more brutal clash of dark and light in a shadow to change space. Thatʼs why I can allow the other serpents who could awaken the same skill or have to hide in my shadow. But having you or Brother and sister… that is beyond my understanding yet.”

The honesty in the way that Onyx spoke assured Mordant that this was also something that Onyx wished to learn from. A reaction that made it clear he had the ability to I fluency othe anas with his own affinities but was lost to the path he needed to take to make it so.

”I could feel the dark mana used. It was similar to how I changed my position when moving in to the darkness. It was different though. I do not clash with the light, the density of my dark mana seems to connect with the outer dark mana further away. Maybe I am resonating with dark mana more and that is the strength of it. Greater than weaker space mana so it allows me to move using it to avoid being forcefully altered.”

They both had a glint in their eyes as they recalled when Walker explained the elemental teleportation rune formations.

How the manas needed to be exchanged and how space mana was stubborn and didnʼt let others grasp it easily. If the dark mana was so dense and the collisions of other manas was so intense, the. Maybe the space mana didnʼt like it.

Maybe the space mana resisted that and the best way was to just allow them to move using it instead of completely manipulate the space too.

While the theory was in mind with what they already knew, it was different. They hadnʼt acted upon it in this method so it could be the right way to think.

As he pulled some purer and denser dark mana, Onyx felt the same feeling as he had when he hid his body away. However Mordant was manipulating it to become a darker hole almost. Instead of sinking in to he was making sure he did not use the skill to move just yet.

They both watched the light mana being pushed away as this dark mana made a shadow which wasnʼt necessarily a shadow at all since it didnʼt have light mana within naturally.

The moment that Mordant allowed some light mana in, the clash forced the dark mana to become a proper shadow. But the burst of manas clashing did make his mind ring. It was painful but not actually wrong. He could describe it as using muscle he had never properly used for the first time or after not using it for months.

His breath caught a rhythm while he felt the dark mana he pushed at clashing even more. However, as he used his skill and tried to meld in to the darkness to move just a few feet, the light mana pushed in more to make it a properly balanced shadow yet it couldnʼt.

Mordant was forcing the space mana to react instead. The dense dark mana was pushing at space even though Mordant didnʼt feel the space mana. He felt a wall though.

It pushed against him as if refusing to move and let the skill work without the light mana balancing properly.

Until it didnʼt.

The next moment, Mordant felt himself pulled through the purer dark shadow and moved a few feet over. He videotaped sick and his head rang. But he realized heʼd succeeded in making the purer dark mana influence space mana.

Heʼd succeeded in this theory and found a way to push through the space between one and another using just dark mana. He just needed to understand the density and purity more. It was a path the dragons had never taken that he could recall. One that he would even shock Walker with.

The best part was, that Onyx also saw it all and there was a rapid processing as Onyx realized how amazing this was. A chance to grow yet again!
