For the moment that Walker had before he tried to focus on the bone in his hand, he looked out at the scenery. Being on the water was misleading, now one would imagine that they were up as high as they were. They would normally be impeded by the riverbanks therefore they would see nothing. But at the moment, he saw a lot.
The expansive wilderness that stretched out around the river and even beyond. He could see the mountain range in the far distance while he could swear he could make out a city or two. Whether it was all in his head or not, there was great beauty in the sight. There was a sense of peace that burrowed right in to his heart to settle down.
"I think I will bring Alice to share a watch with me later. It would only be fair to help out here too." Gil smirked when he heard Walker saying this. He had the same thought process about wanting to share the view with Alma. But that would wait until later.
It was only another moment of looking before Walker returned his focus to the bone. He had to try and keep up with Gil in even a little sense of the phrase. He didn't want to be useless when it came to arrow making. Plus, he had the feeling that he could get another skill that might be useful one day other than arrows.
The slow carving of the bone was something that would normally make someone on edge. Most people would lack the patience to do this sort of task. However, for walkers, it was a challenge of the mind. Similar to meditating and feeling the mana in the air. It required a firm focus that ignored even time itself.
This thought process consumed Walker as he ran the knife along the bone smoothing out the imperfection. Since it was a fresh bone, it had not dried and become tough. There was an easier process of cutting in to it for Walker and Gil. But what Walker noticed was that it was easier to carve it when he used his mana to add in water elemental mana to the blade of the knife.
The change in the way Walker cut surprised Gil but not enough to stop his own work. The flow of Walker's blade was smoother and cut cleaner. The sudden crack as the bone fell on to two halves was shocking to Walker but he did not hesitate to pick up another bone and try again.
Unfortunately, just like the first bone, it cracked in a few moments because Walker had used too much force and too much mana. "Third try's the charm." The reciting of a common phrase was thought to bring luck and that was what walker hoped he was bringing to him as he spoke.
With swift strokes of the knife, thinner bone pieces came off leaving perfectly smooth parts of the bone that resembled an arrow shaft. The more that he did this, the more that Walker wondered if he could even carve a rune in to the bone. Naturally, he had to pursue this curiosity. He could not leave himself wondering just what was and was not possible.
There was a sudden strength in the elemental mana around Gil that drew his attention. He was captured by the sight of Walker coating the blade of the knife he was using in water and carving in to the bone. The tearing falcon bone was not only being shaped but Gil could see the water elemental runes that Walker was copying from a piece of fabric he had taken from his storage.
'The skill bone carving has been learned through continued work and guidance from an experienced hunter.
Bone carving- passive
The user is able to better carve any type of bone as long as they are using better tools. Not many people have the ability to do so due to the strength of bones or the skill required. The user can better carve bones the more they work with them over time.
The skill water blade has been taken from the water splitting sword system. The user has used their knowledge of water elemental mana, swordsmanship, and elemental control to learn this skill.
Water blade- 3 mana cost an hour
This skill requires a blade to use as the base made of metal. The user is able to manifest the water from the air to add on to the blade. The rotating water will sharpen the blade making it easier to cut through tougher materials. This skill comes at a slightly higher mana cost to maintain but can be lowered as the user's understanding of mana expands. It may also slowly damage the bladed weapon being used.'
"I swear he learns skill just by breathing…wait, has he?" Gil was wondering just how many skills Walker had learned but realized that Walker probably had too many skills to keep track of at this point. It was clear that Walker used some skills without even thinking at this point. They were becoming instinctual for him.
"I think I am done." Walker raised the arrow shaft he had created in to the sun so that they could look at it clearer. "I know I only made one so far but I had an idea that I could use the water elemental mana to help cut the bone since it was soft. Then I started thinking that the runes we know would be perfect for this."
It was not the first rune that Walker had carved but it was still a little rough. The rune was working well and Gil could feel the water elemental mana adhering to it. "It's pretty good. I was not going to make arrows like this because I know they can get lost easily. The rune inscribed arrows that some of the elves use are considered priceless because of the time it takes them. But since you want to make them."
"I am not making you a hundred of those. Just one took more mana than it should." Walker could sense that Gil was going to use him to make even more if he was not careful.
"Finnnnneeeee. But you can help me when I get to making the wind elemental arrows. I figure I will make unique arrows that just Zephyr and I can use. The other elemental arrows will be normal so that I can use them without worry." As an archer, Gil knew the pain of losing arrows. Any hunter or archer would want to recover the arrows they had slaved away making. But sometimes battle and hunting took the arrows away in the form of broken shafts, arrowheads, and even being burned to ashes. Any number of things could happen.
"I can help you as soon as I figure out what all that yelling is about." Walker heard a few of the look outs starting to shout and pass messages down the stairs to others on the top deck. They had definitely spotted something.
"Then let's just take a look." Gil was up in a flash with Walker by his side. The pair looked ahead, easily finding the movement that had been spotted.
"It's yellow." Gil felt that they had finally found the yellow monster that was providing the tearing falcons with another food source.
"Yes, it is yellow. Let's get a closer look from the top deck. The team that was on that side of the riverbank is retreating." Walker knew that the team was mostly physical attackers. The mages were mostly stationed on the ship to maintain ranged protection from monsters.
'',
It only took a minute to rush down the stairs. Walker had stored the materials that Gil and him had been working on so that there would be no issues. Once they had gotten to the top of the ship they found multiple mages preparing to attack when the monsters came in to range. The cloud of yellow was easier to make out as multiple monsters buzzing around together.
'Assassin jackets
These are monsters with extremely weak bodies. However, they will travel in large groups that make underground nests. They will easily become disturbed causing them to fly from their nests and attack with deadly poison. The poison is weak when in small doses just causing stress and pain. In large doses, it can completely break down a body leaving food for the hive.
Many adventurers and travelers have fallen victim to the hidden monsters. Some will try to raise them for their poison but it is not advised due to the danger. They are extremely weak to fire and will often remain in damp or cooler climates to avoid fire. They do not like ice either and will hibernate during the colder seasons.'
"Assassin Jackets. That is what those are."
