Master Of None

Walker held the crystal ball in his hands, he was frozen on the spot. He had no idea what to use his high earth sculpting skill to mold the crystal ball in to. If he used the pure light blade skill he would prefer a sword. If he used the pure dark spear the only answer was a spear. This left him torn on how to mold these two skills and what shape they would need. 

"I think you should make the darkness the outer part of the crystal. Leave the deadly soul attack as the center blade." Alma spoke up. She had been resting after using her skills to give Walker the natural mana. 

"I believe using the spear shape as the base is the best method." The dark mage mostly wanted to see the skill he had as the base since it would show off more of the darkness elemental magic.

"I am fine with that. The decay effect from your spear needs to have more physical coverage. My light blade just needs to make contact and damage is done to the soul to bleed mana. Make the light blade the spear head." The light mage could care less about the looks. Instead, he just wanted to make sure that his skill was seen as the most important. 

Walker could see how the two would normally act when they weren't cooperating over something they were both eager to see happen. He decided to go with their idea though, he followed the crystal mage's idea and started to shape the crystal ball in to a spear. To his surprise, the crystal ball changed shape at an incredible speed. He only used a single mana compared to what he knew the crystal mage must have used.

"That was so fast! Is this what a unique item really does?" The crystal mage took Walker's newly transformed crystal spear in his hands. He analyzed the shape and the feeling finding that it was perfectly balanced physically and in mana.

"Well, the appraisal does say that only I can wield it as its creator." Walker laughed a little at the attention he got over the speed that the spear came to be out of the crystal ball and the fact that he said unique item. 

"The only one that can wield it? You fused the elements to it that well?" Alma had heard of this but hadn't expected this to be done by someone who wasn't an elven craftsman. 

"We can talk about that later. Give him the spear and let's get to manipulating the mana within. The darkness elemental mana should be spread thin-"

"And the light element concentrated in the center along with the entire spear head." The dark mage started speaking but the light mage jumped in to finish. The two were nearly bouncing in excitement. 

Walker took hold of the spear and started to do what he was asked. The mana inside the spear easily reacted to him but making the two different manas move to different parts and even though was tough. 

Walker knew he had to manipulate both at the same time and also use the earth elemental mana to keep the crystal base stable. He knew that he didn't need to keep the earth elemental mana balanced perfectly since it was acting as the stronger bonding agent of the three elemental manas. This led Walker to first use that to travel through the crystal and assist in its density. 

Once he had reached a comfortable place with the earth element throughout the entire spear he started to slowly move the darkness and light elemental manas. He felt that Alma had started to share the natural mana with him. This gave him the strength to make the two elemental manas pass by each other without falling out of balance. 

The darkness element took the surface of the spear while the light element took the core. The two elements were pushing on each other constantly. As much as the darkness element pushed inwards the light element pushed outwards. The only place for the light element to be in front and open was the spear head that Walker allowed it to travel.

The light element was at first, just a ball on top of the spear removing any of the sharpness from the crystal. But as Walker used more of his mana to shape the light elemental mana it became sharp again. The darkness slowly ebbed in to the spear head no matter what he did, but it felt natural to him so he did not stop it.

The strange webbed light and dark look of the spearhead was radiating a terrifying feeling. Walker wasn't sure if this was just the power of opposing elements being forced together or if it was the effects he knew they could have on a person's body.

The darkness element had covered the entire spear at this point and closed off the opposite end. The light element was completely the core of the spear and the earth elemental mana acted as the buffer between the two. The crystal was holding up very well against the pressure, so much so that Walker thought that it could even hold up if more was added.

The mages watched as the darkness elemental mana tried to hold a stable shape against the light elemental mana. The two were fluctuating and refused to stay calm. But with Alma and Walker adding more and more mana every minute they finally reached the turning point. Like a puzzle piece clicking in place the spear suddenly became rigid and calm. 

Walker was efficiently making a pure dark spear and a light blade while using the earth elemental mana and the crystal as a base. What was left was a silence of everyone present. They were shocked to see a triple elemental spell held together by a unique item just created. There were no words for such a feat in such a short time.
