Master Of None

' The user has been under stress due to a fusion of three elements. The skills fire resistance, water resistance, and wind resistance have all been taken from the forsaken system. The user has automatically learned…'

Walker read the skills as soon as he felt the pain start to fade. Scylla noticed the sudden change and looked at him then top Monty. "I didn't expect having a higher level to allow you to naturally recover from attacks like that." Her face showed the exact confusion since she was much higher level and did not have such ability. 

'I actually just gained three resistance skills. The system says that I can resist attacks from water, fire, and wind elemental mana to a slight degree. It also says that they will mitigate small amounts of damage from water, fire, and wind elemental mana.' Walker shrugged thinking that he loved his system more than anything. 

"You are lucky then, I could have told the king that Monty harmed one of the heroes. But since you gained a skill I guess Monty can keep this a secret." Scylla was saying this just tease Monty because of his actions. Walker did not see it as a huge thing to stop. He was a little annoyed that he had been pulled in. 

"I think he could do with the pain tolerance training but there is something more we need to worry about. If this was successful then he will have fully awakened the thunder haired monkey bloodline and have a few new skills to use. Can you please check after healing him slightly?" Scylla was not in a patient mood since there was the chance her kingdom was going to have an even more promising young warrior. 

Walker held a hand out a little fearful to tough Monty since the last time he had been zapped as well, but he still managed to use his healing skills without issue. "I know you didn't mean to shock me too so I won't hold it against you. But if you get some really cool skills I want to see them." Walker couldn't help himself after healing Monty and wanted to know what had changed. 

"That was not fun...I thought I was dying. Even my blood hurt." Monty was still breathing heavily which worried Walker. However, Scylla nodded like this was normal. 

"When I first felt the connection to my brothers and sisters I had the same reaction. It is the monster bloodline traits trying to exist with other blood. For some reason, they do not mix easily. The world works in mysterious ways. Now for the important things, what does your system say now?" Scylla was asking but Monty had already grown wide eyed reading his own system information. 

He struggled to say everything at first but finally got the words out, " My system isn't the bounded staff system anymore, it's called lightning staff system!" He had always thought that the bounded staff system was called this because the staff he touched and used felt like his own limb. But now he could still feel that, instead, there was the feeling that he could fill any staff he touched with his mana to manipulate the elements. 

"If I want...I think I can make a staff thrum with lightning." Monty pushed himself up and grabbed his wooden staff. His hair stood up all over his body and the air grew slightly heavy. To Scylla and Walker, it was like the moment before a storm broke over them. But to Monty, it was the coming of the mana he needed to use his skills. 

There was a slight pop that built in to a chorus of strong p[ops and zings. Before they knew it the wooden staff had started to burn black while lightning slowly sparked off of Monty's hand. There was a loud bang and wood splinters shot across the area bouncing off of Scylla and Walker. 

"It exploded! My staff, my friend! It's gone forever!" Montey felt that he had just done something unforgivable. The lightning he was calling to himself to add to the staff had caused the staff to become too full of the three elemental manas and explode in to splinters. "How will I fight without it?" His tearful eyes met Scylla. 

"I can't say it is uncommon for someone to be so attached to one of their weapons but I am a little worried for you since you are so crushed by it." Scylla just shook her head while Monmty felt even worse. "But I will ask the elves if they have anything that can handle the three elements coming together to form lighting. What skill was it you were trying to use?" This fact made Scylla more interested than the reaction. 

"It was the static infused staff skill. It would have let anything I hit get zapped and do minor magical attack damage. It also had the chance to paralyze my opponent. It's the only skill I awakened but I also got the quest to meditate on the bonding of the three elements." Monty said this which made him regret it. 

"Then you will meditate until you complete the quest. I expect there to be more like that until you can use many more skills. Walker and I will return to check on you and the progress you make. There are no breaks allowed and I will ask Surius to discipline you if you fall asleep." With this Scylla grabbed Walker's arm and began to drag him away. 

"That was intense…" Walker thought he would have more words but it was fairly amazing that such a thing had happened in front of him. 

"I would like to hear what you felt through all of that. I could only tell the mana became dense but I know you are more sensitive than I when it comes to such things." The real reason Scylla had dragged Walker was so that she could hear his thoughts before deciding proper training for Monty. She had switched in to full training mode.
