"Lord, good morning and welco back to the training grounds." Shay was already at the training grounds waiting as if she had known they would be there when they woke up.
" Rey, this is shay. She is the draconic martial artist you might be able to share so skills and experience with. I also wish she would just call Walker…" More than anything, Walker had learned how much he hated the stiff titles that were used for those above oneself. He couldn't help but think that the king might be driven crazy if he had not beco used to it from a young age.
"It is an honor to et you. Please guide well in our matches." Shay bowed slightly as Rey started to give her a once over.
"Su said that you could punch and kick but I would rather hear what you can do with your claws." There was no hiding the claws on a dragonkin's hands. They were sharp in general but at the mont Shay still had hers shifted in to the battle form that could tear through tal if need be.
"I have the dragon claw skill and the shift skill. When they co together they work very well to break an enemy's defenses." The tone Shay had perfectly expressed the excitent of having another hand to hand combat type system user around. The other draconic warriors all used spears, swords, or axes.
"I can see that you have so knuckles that attach to your gloves. Can I ask what they are for?" Shay could already feel the different elental mana around Rey and had her own theory along with what she had also heard. But it was better to hear it right from Rey since it might reveal so tricks of the skills.
"These are elental knuckles. They use different materials and attract different elents. I haven't tested what they all do because I have been focused on alchemy lately. I want to test out so theories when combining two different elental knuckles in the sa hamr fist." Rey showed the knuckles that she knew already knew had certain reactions to her attacks.
"I would be grateful to you if I an be the assistance you need to complete your battle research." Shay was more excited when she saw Rey punch with her elental fist attack using the fire affinity knuckles. The heat that ca off without flas was decent and she could tell that if done with more experience or an open fla around there would be fire on the knuckles to burn the opponent.
"I want to watch and see what you two co up with. I might get so inspiration on my magic combinations if Rey tests sothing a little different. But first, let make a fire and a few other elentally condense areas along the training field. It will help you use your elental fist skills." Walker saw the training stop when he spoke. Unknown to him the other warriors had been paying close attention to their words. After the previous day, Illia had educated them on how to act.
When a royal would co around it would only benefit a dragonkin to pay attention and act accordingly. It was simple for a dragonkin to be ousted from a position or even a village if they did not keep an open ear for what the royal wanted. Therefore, the training field was cleared.
Walker made a fire in one corner, froze another, and made another more rocky. The shadows were brought up by the rocky ground he caused when manipulating the earth. The wind was already blowing and the sun was out now so light and wind elental mana were already there. The main thing Walker would need to watch was the fire that might go out if he ignored it. "We are ready. Let's see what you can do with those knuckles!"
Rey strapped on the first knuckles in a swift downward motion. She had been practicing this motion while they traveled so that she could clip and unclip them at a second's notice. The speed she had was definitely going to result in so form of skill. However, what was catching everyone's attention was the alchemy fire spirit that had shown itself and rushed to the fire to sit within it. Fire elental spirits were not at all common in a cold and high up mountain with dense wind and water elental mana.
"My partner might help out," Rey smirked as she fell in to her stance and one of the knuckles pulled flas toward her. The alchemy fire spirit was giggling about helping out. It was a lot more fun than just doing alchemy even though the spirit had changed because of alchemy and learned to love it the sa way that Rey did.
"I do not mind my opponent having a handicap."Shay sounded calm but her eyes flickered with mischief. It seed that the two were more like each other than they were letting on. Under Shay's calm deanor was a brutal martial artist that like to punch just as much as Rey did.
"You know, we may have made a small mistake here," Walker whispered to Su since they were both standing and watching.
"The two might have a little too much fun…" Su could feel the energy growing as well. The look on the sparring pairs' faces was not just one that said they would spar. It was of two people looking to show off and use their skills to their hearts' content.
"Yes yes, I will give you a few mana crystals to eat while you watch." Walker could feel what Midnight wanted and promptly handed over so of the water elental mana crystal she had in his storage. Midnight started to snack while laying down and waiting for the match to begin.
