Master Of None

Chapter 1176 – 1176. Specific Skill

"Looks like Midnight found dinner. That's good since I cleaned out a lot of the extra food and such in my storage." Walker had pulled out all the crafting and forging materials from his storage. He had also gotten rid of the alchemy ingredients when he was at the alchemy guild. Now that he was on a roll, right before they left he pulled out most of the extra food that they would never eat. He felt it was better to allow his mother to take it and make the most of it. All that was left were the basic rations they needed for the journey. 

"If you are cooking then we won't leave anything left." Su and Midnight had expectant looks for Walker. He felt that it might have been a mistake to show off the cooking skills he had learned. 

"Alright, I will cook it. But you need to take watch first for the night." Walker knew how to use the cards he had to his advantage. He wanted to sleep a little first. "We are only stopping for a little bit though. I think we should travel through the night. It will help us get to the mountains faster." The three had only traveled for a few hours at this point. However, they wanted to get through the grasslands quickly. They were avoiding the river though. There would be flooding since the snow was starting to melt. 

After quickly skinning the brown rabbit, they continued on their way. It was food for later. "Maybe I can try and look for some wild winter vegetables. I know that I saw a lot of them in the market. Those white turnips should be showing about this season. I know the monsters and animals go after them quickly. Midnight, point out where you got the rabbit. I bet that's a good spot for white turnips." It was not a detour to their journey at all. Walker was able to look for food and they would keep on the move 

The spot that midnight brought them to had more than just one set of brown rabbit tracks. "It's good that you held back and didn't chase them all down. If you had, they would have taken a hit for their spring season. They should just be coming out of slumber from the cold." Su made sure to praise Midnight for being respectful of nature and its animals. The brown rabbits were normal animals and not monsters in the least. 

Midnight was going to raise her head in pride when she sniffed the air and growled heavily. The hole that the rabbits had been living in nearby had been dug out a little while she was gone. She had chased the brown rabbits away but she had not dug in to their den at all. "Walker, in front!" Sun slammed the twin shields together in front of them while Midnight prepared to pounce. 

Walker already had the eternal orb taking spear form in front of him. There was a monster forcing its way out of the den after digging in to it. 

'Razor clawed badger

The razor clawed badger is a monster of extremes. When it is not hungry it is considered the most docile hunter in the fields. When the razor clawed badger is hungry, in particular, after it wakes up for the day, it will stop at nothing to get food. They are known to throw themselves in to vicious thorns and imminent danger just to get a bite of food before attacking again. The best practice when facing them is to avoid the claws and kill them immediately.'

"Avoid the claws and take it down as fast as possible." Walker came up behind Su and channeled water elemental mana to wrap around the spear form of the eternal orb. He had trained slightly with making weapons out of elemental mana and now he could put it to use somewhat. The ice that formed increased the range of the spear and Walker used a quick stab. 

The razor clawed badger didn't even flinch. Instead, it threw itself forward with a snarl toad Su's shield. She was pushed back slightly which was not expected. For a small monster, it was very dense and could hit pretty hard. Unfortunately, that was not enough. It had bounced off Su's shield and been left wider open for Midnight to breath out a burst of red hot flames. 

The hair burned on the razor clawed badger causing it to lose its sense of smell. The smoke blinded it and gave Su the opening to bash it away with her shield. This flipped the snarling and confused badger on its back. Walker did not waste the chance to step in to the air with the wind ripple skill. He used the wind wrapping skill to speed his descent and stabbed downwards with the spear piercing through the razor clawed badgers' head. 

'The skill jump spear has been taken from the leaping spearman system. The user had automatically learned the skill leaping spear.

Leaping spear- 3 mana cost

The user uses a small amount of mana to push downward with extra force. The mana helps their muscles deliver a heavier force to pierce what they are leaping to strike at. This skill can only be used with a spear in a leaping downward motion.'

Walker looked about seeing that the badger was defeated. However, he was more stunned by how specific the spear skill he learned was. He felt that he might never use such a skill again due to the specific conditions it needed. "I wonder what a leaping spearman is? He was a little flustered trying to figure out if he had ever heard of a leaping spearman in his entire life. 

Su just glanced at him, "Leaping spearman?" 

"Eh, it's nothing." Walker shrugged and stored the body of the razor clawed badger away.
