"You call that a hit! Weak!" Su was blocking attack after attack from the dragonkin warriors. They had strength butpared to some of the hits from monsters, Su felt they werecking power.
"Don''t even think you can sneak up with shadows!" The real reason that Su wanted to train against Mordant'' dragonkin warriors was not the fact that they were tough opponents. It was the fact that they could sneak around in shadows made by the moving sun.
Theck of powerpared to some other dragonkin warriors came from the fact that the darkness affinity led the dragonkin on a different path. They would focus on more assassin like tendencies. Whereas Ignus''s dragonkin or Current''s dragonkin would focuson battle strength.
The dodging required to keep up with their movements should have been the biggest challenge for Su. however, the more she fought against them the more she became used to it. The movements were carefully trained so Once Su had memorized a lot of their moves, she had started intentionally moving to block with her twin shields.
"I said hit harder!" The taunts went out one by one causing more of the dragonkin warriors to attempt to strike her. It was the perfect training to learn to counter groups of monsters in the wild. Especially since there was the potential that the party may end up in the ancient ruins to meet the immortal king again.
"Midnight, go and show them what you can do." Walker saw the intense stares of the three hatchlings as soon as they sighted Su battling it out between the dragonkin warriors. Midnight did not even pretend to want to hold back either. She immediately used the shadow wrapping skill to join the fray.
"I thought that there would be a difference in strength because of the high reliance on shadows and elemental affinity. But they really seem to move like shadows." Walker knew that the best route was topliment Mordant about his dragonkin''s abilities.
"I see that. They have been cking off and they should work harder. They didn''t even stop when I walked in. How can they be so distracted by training?" Mordant feigned being unhappy watching his dragonkin battle to their best abilities. He had not seen them take such focus on physical battles that didn''t only rely on using the shadows to their advantage. This was different in a very good way.
Midnight''s roar pierced everyone''s ears before her tail mmed in to Su. Naturally, she had managed to sneak up while Su was blocking another attack. Because Su had been distracted by the dragonkin and did not expect that Midnight would mix herself in with them, she was knocked over and rolled to her side. But that did not put her down.
"Who taught you to be so rude and sneaky! I will teach you a lesson today Midnight! It''s my job as your family!" The intensity of Su''s emotions showed brilliantly. Walker had not realized just how hard she had been trying to get stronger. The fact that she had stood up and gotten right back in to the battle proved it many times over.
Midnight had clearly been through this before. Walker had just not seen this battle between them enough. Midnight and Su would let their instincts take over during their one on one training. This pushed them further. Yet, at this moment, they were against the darkness elemental affinity dragonkin. They had more than each other to worry about.
A single wed handshed out towards Midnight causing her to use her wings to jump and dodge. The dragonkin warrior had used the shadows to move with silence behind her. The only reason that Midnight had caught on was the fact that she had been focusing on her skills to sense the change in mana. Walker had rmended this so she had done so.<sub> </sub>
"That''s an easy target!" Su taunted then immediately shield bashed the dragonkin that had snuck up behind Midnight. She did not lose the chance to stun them with a taunt and beat them down. The dragonkin may not have the same strength in attack power as other dragonkin warriors, but they were still plenty durable.
"Do you three understand the way Midnight is moving? Her wings don''t just need to be used to fly. When you develop yours you will be able to use them to dodge. She didn''t have to jump because she had her wings. That leaves here open for…" Walker trailed off as Midnight perfectly illustrated his point. She had used her wings to get height then shed down with her ws. The attack was perfect for the hatchlings when they began to develop their wings.
"And see how she pulls at the shadows to make it harder for her opponents toe behind her again. She learned during the battle. If you can not do that then you will be an insult to every dragon." Mordant chimed in to help educate the hatchlings. It was unexpected but they three listened very well to his words.
"Oh, watch this, Su is going to use a good attack." Even Mordant didn''t know what wasing so he watched just as intently as the hatchlings.
Su stomped her feet down the pushed off in a shield charge. This would have been normal except for the light elemental mana that formed a shield around her mmed together twin shields. The attack charged all the way through four of the dragonkin warriors and was narrowly dodged by Midnight.
"Midnight dodged that one instinct. It was close but look at her footing. That is what makes trouble." Su split the shield as Walker spoke and Midnight fell. It was a swift movement that came from a lot of training. "Now watch what happens when you add a wild card like me." Walker chuckled as he pulled the twin blitz swords from his storage.
