Chapter 219: To the Alchemist
He thought on what color may be able to change and give birth to another unique skill that could help them within the deeper sun hollow forest. Walker was not sure what would be best and decided that he was trying to speculate on something he could not know without better studying. He chose the color blue since he liked to look at the sky at times and he was excited to see the soon blue skied of spring and later summer.
He imagined that the light elemental mana had solidified in to a blue hue much like the sky. He felt that the same amount of mana was benign consumed as with the blurry orb skill. He took much longer thinking on this one and letting the mana flow in to it. He wanted to match the vibrant blue of the sky exactly , he refused to settle for something less. This slowness was very helpful to him since it gave him time to regenerate mana as well as more closely manipulate the light elemental mana forming the orb.
Taking almost triple the time to create the blue orb for the first time Walker soon opened his eyes to a perfectly round blue orb the exact same shade as the sky. He was completely captivated by this sky blue orb. Even trying to move his eyes from it for a second seemed like an insult to the pure perfect beauty of the blue. With great mental effort Walker managed to cover his eyes with one hand, free of the captivation he kept his eyes on the ground. Why had he been so stuck staring at the orb? The system seemed to have the answer for him notifying him of a new skill.
'The skill luring orb has been learned through manipulation of the light element.
Luring orb- 2mana cost
The color of the luring orb holds the beauty of the very skies with in it. The light emitted fills the viewer with wonder. It is very easy for monsters to be lured and held in a dazed state. This skill only lasts for one minute and is weaker against more intelligent monsters.'
This skill was great! Because Walker had taken more time to prepare it he had still managed to learn a skill. Not only that but it was ideal for luring monsters with lower intellect and keeping them dazed in one place. This skill could make larger groups much easier. He wished he had practiced and learned thus much earlier so he could have distracted the horned rabbits with it. If he had done so a lot of danger could have been mitigated.
These three spells combined could be very worthwhile skills to use while in the dimly lit forests. Plus he was confident that if he showed off all three at once his promise to Alice would be fulfilled. With a renewed vigor Walker turned to head inside only to find that he had an audience watching the last skill.
"So you seem pretty executed with your new spell huh? It wouldn't be to show off to a certain singer at the cathedral?" Remey smiled a bit too widely as she teased him, but her teasing was interrupted by Su who was more interested in other things.
"Leader, that blue orb, what was it? I could not focus on anything but that until it suddenly disappeared." Su was the refreshing logic to Remey's teasing. Walker was happy to hear the question since he was very excited about his new skill.
"This one is called a luring orb, it can attract monsters and put them in to a daze. It works on anyone that looks at it but it is less effective the more intelligent the view that is looking at it. I think it will be very useful for keeping monsters distracted while we fight!"
"Leader that definitely sounds like a useful skill to have. But won't we all get distracted as well?" This was the fatal flaw of the new skill. If the party wanted a chance to use it they needed to be able to completely resist it at a seconds glance.
"Yes, but if we all train together with it I think we will have no problem resisting the luring orb and the blurry orb." Walker used the blurry orb skill to create a purple orb. "Remey high five!" Not knowing why Remey took the step forward and raised her hand to give him a high five. She figured why not? But when her hand seemed like it would make contact she swiped in down back to her side.
"Huh?" She raised her hand and tried again but did not make contact at all even though it looked like her hand would hit his. "Why can't I give you a high five! Why is it so foggy out here!" Seeing that Remey was getting a bit angry Walker released the purple blurry orb.
"Try it now" Hesitantly Remey gave it another try and the slap of a high five making contact was heard. "That was the blurry orb, it makes things harder to see so ranged attacks would be very hard. I was thinking I could use it and let it rest above our heads." Su nodded her head, she also saw the value in this, It also only seemed to have a limited effect on them. Walker seemed to have had focused eyes and was not affected, but Su clearly saw that Remey had a more clouded vision.
"If you ever use that on me I will break you!" Remey was not happy about being used as his test subject but also knew it was revenge for her teasing about him wanting to go to the cathedral. "Lets just get moving, we have places to be." She stalked off towards the front gate. It was definitely enough playing around. Walker wished he had figured out more like he had with the high earth sculpting skill but had decided that he would need much more practice to make a big change like that in other elements. He had been more stressed when he made progress in the earth element.
Their walk through the streets was not too different from usual, however the three noticed many more people giving them looks. There were a few nobles walking the market in the higher tier of the city who seemed to smile or frown when they saw the party and the three identifying medals on their bodies. The medal from the king was one that set them aside in comparison as nobles. The silver tier plaque for adventurers was a justified reason for respect, and even the insignia from the demi-human kingdom was an incredibly rare award. These combined practically screamed that they were the hero party all the gossip was about. Their return had spread like wildfire, the fact that they did not completely denounce demons caused unhappiness to some nobles but to others it gained them great respect.
Seeing the unwanted attention they moved a bit faster to return to the lower tier where the alchemist building was.The many smokestacks were putting out a myriad of colored and pungent smokes, this everyday occurrence made it any easy place to find. Walking in to the door they found the same herb filled room with the pleasant earthy smell. The same old man was sitting behind the counter writing notes in a journal.
"Eh you're back again brat? I thought I heard you all moved to another kingdom, bad luck I guess."
"Oho you want me gone that bad huh old man? How could I leave when we have something you would trade your soul for?" Remey joined the old man's banter without a hitch.
"Hello there, we do indeed have something interesting that is fairly valuable." Walker took a more polite approach since he knew Remey would be trying to get as much from him as possible, not that the old man did not expect this.
"And you brought your friends too, now you are really trying to show off how you've grown." The old man laughed a bit making Remey's face turn a bit red.
She was ready with a retort though, "Fine I guess we won't be selling you a snow golem's arm then." She pretended to turn around to walk out the door. The old man had braced his hands o n the table, his quill and journal falling to the floor.
"Ehm, yes of course I am interested in your business valued customers. Please if you could present the item you wish to sell to me I have a special room in the back to place such items." The old man had flipped a switch becoming a completely different person. Walker and Su were surprised by this but Remey was prepared.
"We can consider it then, show us to your evaluation room, and make sure it is clean. We will nit be responsible for the impurities your room causes it to absorb." She knew just the words to say top hasten the old man further.
