Master Of None

The entire training area had gone silent. It was as if sound had been lost from the world while they all worked. Walker was completely immersed in the way the mana inside the crystal sword was flowing. He would not let it rest for even a second while the mana was added. If he did he could lose the hard work and injure the others.

The mana was easy to control and guide at first. But the denser it became the more pressure started to rise. He knew that this was inevitable but pushed on. Alma was soon transferring natural mana to him since she sensed that it was the right time to use the skill to keep Walker making progress. 

With the natural mana from Alma flowing in to him Walker added more mana to his grand elemental manipulation. The mana in the crystal sword was beaten in to his control. It started to flow in a vortex within the crystal sword.

The balance between the elements was being maintained as the pressure was rising higher and higher. Walker could feel the tension from the mages around him along with the crystal mage who was struggling to fully lock in the mana.

Seeing that the pressure was building again Walker added more of his mana to force the process to be smoother. The crystal mage started to use his crystal shaping skill and close off the small cracks attempting to form. 

"No more mana, stop!" The shout from the crystal mage was instantly followed as a life or death order. The mages stopped adding elemental mana and retreated with worried looks.

Walker, Alma, and the crystal mage still worked on the crystal sword. The elemental mana wasn't yet balanced and the final touches on the core were not condensed. 

The elements appeared to be in their solid forms within the crystal sword while they chased each other. The three weren't sure if it was a trick of the eyes or a magical occurrence. But as soon as their balance locked in place there was a mystical feeling.

All three immediately put the sword down and fell back gasping for air. Their mana dangerously low and the sword still thrumming with elemental mana. The mages feared that it was too early to approach but the slow calm waves of elemental mana that started to elongate from the crystal sword gave them the courage.

The change in the crystal sword made Walker, Alma, and the crystal mage shoot up from the collapsed position. Even Midnight had been drawn from her nap to stand behind them to look at the finished product. 

The colors of the different elemental mana didn't fluctuate in just the center of the hilt and handle, it had spread through the entire blade. It was similar to a rainbow but with the harsh strength of the elemental mana. Brilliant red and soft blues chased each other as the water and fire elemental mana balanced each other. The other elements moved to bind or balance the two as well before another set would start the same game of tag.

The leech crystal itself had lost its darker color and become a pristine clear crystal. The thin blade no longer gave them the feeling that it was weak and delicate. There were not many intricate details or designs, but that only enhanced the shaping and appearance of the hilt and handle.

There were many eager looks directed at Walker, with a slow realization he noticed what they were waiting for. "Sorry, let me use my all around appraisal skill,"

'Perfect crystal magic sword (earth, air, water, fire, light, darkness.) 

+5 atk, +8 Matk, +4 mana

Due to the intense determination of multiple high and master class mages, along with the user of the hero title a perfect weapon was crafted. The crystal sword has been perfectly balanced with the natural elements. This had given rise to the ability to enhance the wielders' mana and magical attack. The perfect balance of the elemental manas has given the crystal a strength that far surpasses the strength of a normal crystal sword. It is rare for it to chip or break. The perfect crystal magic sword is made of leech crystal and will constantly absorb the natural mana in the world around it to replenish its' reserves.'

Everyone who heard this took in a sharp breath. Hearing that they had all created a perfect item as like saying it rained gold, it was spoken of as if it were a myth. The insane rarity of the sword and the fact that they had all created it together was pulling at their hearts. Not a single one of them could find a word to say. 

After some time staring at the sword in front of them the silence was broken by the vines door being made to open. There was a taller athletic elf that strolled in taking everyone's attention. "Elder sister! I thought you were assisting the other hero in her skill creation?" The magma mage immediately identified the woman as his elder sister. This was the elemental spell sword in charge of the spell swords of the kingdom. 

"I was, but I received a quest to come here and begin training to master a perfect weapon. The reward is the unlocking of my mastery skill." The room was again pushed in to silence. There were too many shocking things happening for any of them to keep up with. 

"Welcome to our research Miranda, please meet the leader and true hero title holder; Walker." Alma didn't miss a beat and introduced Walker who had managed to stand himself up. 

"Sorry about my appearance. We just completed this perfect crystal magic sword and it took a lot of mana. But I've got to say, it is very beautiful." Walker knew the spell sword was already entranced by the sword. Her eyes grew wide as she gazed at the fluctuating mana within.
