Rorick came right up to Walker before he decided that he would have to make the journey back to his seat. "That was a great battle. If you told me you were the same kid from back then I would not believe you. What were those skills? How many did you use? Have you thought about adding weapons and changing form slightly?"
The barrage of questions was a little much for Walker at the moment. He was dealing with the side effects of using all of his mana and being left with a single mana point. He had to slowly reset his standing before he pushed himself to get in to a long debate. "It's just a skill I figured out. Then I added some more elemental manipulation…."
"As you can see, I have not mastered it. We'll see in a while what I can do." Walker left it at that and heard the roar of the crowd returning. They had been stricken silent by the things they had just witnessed. The mages around them keeping up protective barriers breathed sighs of relief since they didn't have to worry about the fact that an attack might escape their control.
"Those were the spectacular skills of two who pioneer the battles of equality and inclusion. King Rorick has long mastered sword skill after sword skill to combine in to the best possible sword art in existence. Walker has pushed to bring mana together to unite all underneath him. The two have perfectly demonstrated their strengths. Can you not show them your appreciation?" Scylla shouted in perfect announcement causing the crowd to roar yet again.
"Are you alright? You're pale." Su wanted to drag Walker out of there to lay down somewhere. Her instincts were telling her that he needed rest.
"No, it's fine. My mana is already recovering. I just have a pretty decent headache from using all the mana and forcing elemental mana together. I really didn't mean to do all that to such a degree…" He felt that his actions were too overboard. As much as Walker had wanted to avoid the fight, he was already thinking that he wanted to learn how to use the elemental dragon aspect better. The feeling of having the elemental mana ready was too much.
Fleur had already left the eternal orb which idly floated around Walker. She looked fairly upbeat and happy. "You look like you were able to steal away a lot of elemental mana while I was stuck in that state." Walker couldn't help but be a little jealous.
The reaction that Fleur had wasn't to run away from his teasing but instead to bump in to the side of his cheek. The natural mana flowed between them completely clearing his head. "Oh. thank you. That was, nice." Walker didn't realize that natural mana could be used in such a way. He still was low on mana but he had lost the mental stress from using so much. Fleur just giggled a little before floating over to poke at Midnight. It seemed like it was time to play games.
"I will get more information from you later. We ended up stopping all the battles so we should return to our seats before we hold them up any longer." Rorick was a little unhappy that the battles had paused. Yet, he understood that this was the cause of others seeing the skills he and Walker used. His own ears were still ringing after the burst of lightning that had appeared from Walker's elemental dragon aspect.
"I think you are right. Ignus is looking a little annoyed that we are still down here talking." Walker wasn't sure if it was the fact that they had stopped the battles or the fact that Ignus couldn't see a more refined attack from Walker. It was something that Walker had worried might happen.
"We have to wait to hear about tomorrow's battles. Today's should be done soon." Su pulled Midnight along with her back to the participant area. She knew that Midnight would remain between the arenas fooling around. Fleur also rushed back toward Walker and hung on to his shoulder while pulling even more mana toward her. Walker could only think she was an endless pit when it came to absorbing mana.
"That was very interesting. But you have yet to complete your skill." Mordant was very calm. He looked at Walker carefully. His eyes wanting to see more of what Walker could do.
"I think I knew that. The elemental dragon aspect isn't natural mana. It's just a rough mix of mana to create a form that I can use my elemental manipulation the best. If I can manage to fuse it all perfectly and control it as natural mana, I think it will be radically different in effects and form." Seeing that Walker understood this. Mordant looked back at the battles now resuming.
"Just remember that you represent the dragons now as well. That skill is similar to our most powerful skills as dragons. When you use it, you seem to touch every element. Next time use some of the shadows." There was a tinge of jealousy that Walker hadn't used the shadows to attack.
"I can make that happen. I still need to grow a little more before I have the proper control over all of it. Good thing I can annoy you for tips." Walker's response made Mordant smile for just a second before he actually focused on the battles.
The remainder of the day passed by with gossip about the outstanding battles. Scylla brought attention here and there to amazing events. Those she saw value in as warriors. The entire crowd had already chosen their favorites to be recognized in the second day of battles where true skills would be seen. Where the warriors would be brought up to show the entirety of Genesis.
