"Well since you both came out of nowhere in that fight with skills I had never seen before, I would hope you two will share." Walker looked at them keeping his harsh gaze to make sure they knew he was serious. "I make sure I respect your boundaries and don't pry in to each of your skills like a mad king, but those were pretty great and I think they will be very beneficial in the future." He decided to lighten up a bit since he had been impressed.

Remey saw his slightly relaxed face and knew that she was able to explain the things she and Midnight have been practicing. "Well, when we have finished at the forge or the alchemy lab at night Midnight and I have had some sparring matches to test out some skills we noticed after the event we had." Remey looked at the elves knowing she should keep some things held back.

"I see, but both of you should already have skills from your systems that use your tail or kicks." Walker motioned to Midnight's tail and Remey's legs.

"We do, but Midnight realized that she had a better skill when she wore her skeletal armor skill. It became bone tail whip. She used it on a training dummy and it looked more aged and older after a few minutes. I am pretty sure it eats away at the health points of the skills target." Remey was patting Midnight on the head while she spoke. Midnight was loving every moment of attention, her pride was swelling.

"Wait, so if I got hit with that bone tail whip I could look older." Gil was holding his face in fear.

"Oh no, It would make me look older?" Alma had joined in his fear and the two were almost mirror images of each other.

Wade just shook his head while watching the two be over dramatic together. "Not even a full day of traveling together and you two are already this close." He had long dealt with Alma being a little extra dramatic, but having another person feed her corny drama was going to make it worse.

While the two giggled at their comedy Su had an idea, "That attack sounds like it is made to combat a defender like me. If it caused health points to drain it most likely also causes an armor or shield's durability to wane." Walker was even more impressed with the skill after Su said this. She had seen an amazing quality he had missed.

"What I don't get is why you yelled round house when you kicked? Was some big explosion supposed to happen?" Calen was more caught up in Remey's skill due to her shout. Calen had retreated a little farther just in case something would happen since when someone shouts a skill it was usually the warning for the party.

"Uhh, not really. But shouting it gives it more speed and strength. I don't really like kicking since I feel off balanced when I use them. But since Walker said I should use my palm strike more when I fight I wanted to try my kicks. I noticed the round house kick had changed and well, I needed a partner to help." Remey was a little red faced since she had forgotten how embarrassing it was to shout that skill allowed.

"You did seem to be faster and hit pretty hard. I wish I gad a skill that boosted my agility when I yelled." Calen was in a sour mood hearing that Remey had such a nice bonus just from shouting her kick.

"So what would happen if you didn't shout it out loud?" Su had a mystery on her hands and needed the answer, it was something that would annoy her all day if she did not hear it now.

"If I don't shout it out then my attack is halved. Same with my agility. It's super lame, but if I use it right it is a huge surprise." Remey looked a little disheartened when she started but as she remembered how cool the shattering ice was she smiled.

"In the future please try to share the skills you two practice. I know you wanted to surprise us and we were very surprised, but it might be a little offputting." Walker needed to give them the speech his mom would give them. It was his duty as party leader to act as a parent at times.

"But they were cool. They get a perfect ten out of ten from me." Gil was there giving his support.

"I am very impressed as well. The two of you must have worked very hard." The elves just watched as the party had its moment. However, after Su said her part and Onyx made his actions in the sparring practice known, they needed to get moving.

Wade stopped and examined the shard of giant slime core. "This had a lot of darkness elemental mana condensed. It must have been force fed the mana by someone so it could grow this fast. The forest might have natural darkness elemental mana but not in such concentration." Wade's face was showing the perry of what kind of enemy was making these slimes act.

"I really did have hope that it was a very strange twist of nature, but it is for certain that someone is controlling these slimes now." Walker has still held a small hope that they were not going to deal with some villain trying to kill the forest.

Alma who had just finished a low tier mana potion from a small bag she had carried with her was busy gathering seeds from the blue ivy she had grown to protect the trees. Her whispers made the trees slowly revert to their original shape and it appeared that she was using much less mana. "You know, just because I am not looking at you it doesn't mean I can't feel you watching me."

Sorry, I just think it is really cool how you can ask the trees to change shape like that. My mother is a farmer and I have seen her guide plants and even use her mastery skill to make them grow in minutes. But this is a whole different level." Gil was more than caught up in the skill Alma used. He was having a lot of trouble finding the differences between a forest whisper system and a farmers system until now. This was perfect evidence of how the two were far from the same.

"Well, a farmer nurtures plants in the way they should grow naturally. I as a forest whisperer, ask them to change and grow a certain way. If my mana isn't enough to stimulate the natural mana they have then they don't listen. I am actually very bad at growing plants their natural way, I always end up whispering for them to change." Alma looked a little sheepish as she explained her planting tendencies.

"So you can bring out the certain qualities already in a plant where a farmer can just grow them over many cycles. You pretty much have a sped up version of cross breeding." Gil summed it up making it sound a lot less simple.

"I guess if you want to be lame and call it that sure. But before I started playing with my blue ivy it only had poison in its roots. Now I can make it circulate through the entire plant. Not that I get to use it, we rarely run in to goblins anymore." Alma had wanted to show this off but seeing that the purples slimes were all immune to poisons it was a pointless hope.

"Hey, did you two hear us? We are heading out!." Remey shouted at the two who were still talking away ad had not even noticed the others calling for them.

Gil jogged up to Walker. "Did you hear that? Alma can make the blue ivy circulate its poison through its whole plant body instead of just roots. Think you could learn a skill like that for the garden?" Gil was in full on gardening more wanting to get home and tell his mother all about it. He was certain she would be amazed to hear about a skill like this.

'How could I not? We were all trying to get your attention, it was like you two were up on the moon and not down here on earth." Walker gave Gil a soft punch to the shoulder.

"I was just learning about our fellow hunting group's skills. It is natural for me to do this so I can better use my own skills." Gil sounded like he was trying to convince himself more than the others. Su broke her serious character and smiled a little while using one of her shields to hide her face.
