Chapter 875 - 875. Show Of Force
Su had only heard so much of what Adair had been saying when it came to Walker having to learn to act like a royal. Now she knew what they had continued to speak about when she and the others had left the carved cave. Looking above Reeds' head, she could see Midnight coming.
"You are a human. I have never heard of such a thing happening in the entire existence of the dragonkin or dragonkind. It should be impossible.
" Reed was completely convinced of the impossibility here.
"Hmm? Did I just hear you say something? Su, I believe you should take your friends to the side. I believe it will get a little messy in a moment. I have some orc food to make.
" Su began to motion for the other dragonkin warriors to move.
Midnight was just about to land when Walker started to take a deep breath. Unknown to Reed, Midnight was doing the same thing. Through the multiple jumps that Midnight had done, she had begun to grasp the basics of landing. She was by no means an expert, but when she was about to land she turned suddenly so she faced the direction she was coming from. She and Walker were now both facing Reed as she dug her claws in to the ground and scraped to a stop next to him.
That second the two of them released a large breath. The mana around them shook with the additional mana they put in to their roars. Not only did they roar together, but they shook the mana in the same way which caused the air to vibrate around them. Small embers of gold flame escaped around Midnights' maw creating a terrifying scene. Walker manipulated the mana around to block some of the sound from the other warriors to spare them the unbearable noise.
The sound may still not rival a full dragon, but it was more than any warrior in the village could hope to emulate. Reed found himself losing the color in his face and his ax starting to fall from his shoulder. The big end move though was the large thud of Illia landing behind after seeing that Midnight was not running toward the garden stairs again for the last practice glide.
"What seems to be the problem lord? Is this warrior causing any issues? I can remove them if you desire.
" Reed collapsed to his knees. Illia's voice had confirmed anything he doubted. He was ready for the end of his life.
"Oh no, for some reason this warrior decided that he preferred the name orc food for some reason. I gave him permission to be called that for the rest of the time I am in this village. Strange traditions you have here but I am not one to judge. Midnight, one last time. If you land like you just did I will roast two legs of horned rabbit for you to go with the earth elemental crystals.
" Midnight let out a secondary small roar of excitement and raced off faster than she had before.
Illia moved to the edge of the training area and lay down to watch from the lower perspective of Midnight flying. This would be the last for the day since the strain on the wings constantly in a short period of time would be harmful. That and Illia was a bit interested to see Walker and Su spar. She had high hopes for them.
"So, Su, sparing?
" The other dragonkin warriors were now on edge but lined up ready for whatever they needed to do.
"I was planning on more sparring, yes. Shay here is a draconic martial artist. She has a speedy claw attack that Remey might be able to copy with her jabs. I would go and get her but she is too caught up on the herbs.
" Su wanted to spar with Remey too but there was not much she could do when Remey was hyper focused.
"Then maybe I will take a shot at it. You can play with orc food. He looks like he needs to get his blood pumping. The rest of you should step back and watch. The analysis you give us will be taken in to consideration so be as accurate as possible.
" The dragonkin warriors broke their lines and surrounded the four to have the best views.
Shay started her introduction but Illia let out a slight growl. It was clear that she wanted the match to start sooner than later and Shay immediately fell in to a stance without speaking. Walker pulled the twin blitz swords from his inventory.
"I hope you are alright with me testing my sword skills. I have slacked on a lot of close combat training for magic training and need to improve.
" Walker raised one sword and bounced side to side before he started the dance of the wild rabbit.
The mobility that he displayed was surprising for a human. Shay stayed still as Walker danced around her. The small sparks starting on his blade highlighting the use of the lightning swordplay skills. But what really caught her was when he passed by the side of her and suddenly shifted to the side to swipe at her. It was an impossible angle, but one that Walker had managed to use.
"Dance of the wild rabbit, lightning swordplay, slash zone combo. Now let's get this beat moving faster.
" He promptly told Shay who only recognized the first two skills. The third was foreign to her but sounded like it could easily cause the slash that had just grazed her arm. Shay could feel her own excitement rising since she rarely let loose in her sparring matches. It was rare to spar with someone new.
"This is the footwork skill of the dragonkin warriors. It is called the scale step. Good luck.
" She was gone from Walker's view in the blink of an eye.
