Walker pushed himself up while rubbing the sleep from his eyes. He was kicking himself mentally since he hadn't meant to drift off in to a nap at all. The fact that he had missed some valuable training made him angrier than anyone else could be at himself. But that wasn't what was the most important to him at the moment, he wanted to check on Remey and Su who had both lost their fire.

"You two look like you're ready to sleep and be done for the day." His words were met with tired glances and Walker wondered if Su would even be able to lift her shield.

"The enforcers gave us mana potions, but they are still not fixing this sore feeling." Su knew the potions could only heal injuries and not remove the muscle soreness that came with long term training.

"I wish they could but if they did it would undo any growth in our bodies. Why is the world like this!" Remey stretched out on her back in a huff since she knew she could never beat the world. This was just something that everyone had to accept in their lives.

"Well, I am glad you guys finished up. I hope I didn't get in the way the entire time." Walker was a little self conscious of him being too worn out himself to jump in.

"Not at all. I had a great time bonding with some other storing women." Scylla walked over still appearing to be full of energy. "I rarely get to be partnered with any due to the majority of our warriors being male, it is just the way of nature when it comes to most demi-human traits." Scylla had also accepted this. There were a decent amount of powerful female warriors in her kingdom, but they were vastly overshadowed by the male warriors.

"Why do I have the feeling that you could still do the training ten more times and still be just as energetic?" Walker was more speaking out loud than anything but his words still managed to bring a smile to Scylla's face.

"On the contrary to appearances, I have used two thirds of my mana since we began the training." Her words came out in a tone that spoke of exhaustion but in reality, it was nothing. She might as well have been bragging about her massive mana reserves.

"I would hate to know how much mana you have or even what level you are. There are reasons I don't use my all around appraisal skill sometimes." Walker was trying to cover his eyes since he was afraid he would be tempted to use the skill. If he did he would spend all of his time potentially knowing the true strength of a kingdoms' general and live with minor fear towards her.

"You shouldn't be able to appraise me at all. I have a nice accessory that prevents it." Scylla flashed a pure white ring that had the word Ordist engraved on it. "Every high ranking general, commander, even elite soldiers get one of these. It is specially made from the bone of a certain species of monster. It naturally hides its identity." Scylla only showed them for a second but it was an amazing item.

"Leader, we may want to gain one of those in the future." Su was thinking about how useful this could become when they were traveling. There may be a day when they were trying to hide their identities and remain hidden. This accessory would be just the key.

"I can see if we can send some to you. We protect these monsters' territory but are usually able to spare some of the remaining bones." Scylla said this as if she was dangling a steak in front of a hungry dog. Walker did his best to hold back and keep from taking the bait.

"Where are Midnight and Onyx? Shouldn't they be done already?" Remey had realized that the entire training area was a little too quiet and that might mean that all the training had been completed.

"Oh no, I believe they are still making the mages work for it. That squad was already double the size and they had two of them." Scylla had expected that the mages and the archers would take the longest to exhaust themselves and was being proven correct. "Look over that way. You can see small flashes of white from light magic. Then I can sense the mana being pulled that way where the archers are still messing with their arrows like children." Scylla was shaking her head but they all knew she wanted to see the arrows when they were completed.

"Well, since our bodies are healed let's go over and watch. I am sure you have been dying to see the mages." Remey wanted to just sleep but felt that she would be letting everyone down if she did not watch and learn something more.

"I didn't expect you to want and go check it out. But I really do want to watch the magic." Walker was honest in his desires and also his thoughts.

"Just because I am tired doesn't mean I am going to bail on everyone." Remey stood up and stomped toward the mages in a huff and mumbled under her breath.

"Leader, I believe Onyx will gain the most understanding from this training. Hew has the least battle experience and has been testing himself for some hours now." Su was trying to predict just how much Onyx would change through this.

Once he had heard Su, Walker knew that they were in for a great show. If Onyx had adapted well his style will have shown itself and he could better fit in to the party. There was the sneaking suspicion that he wouldn't be as much of a supporter as they had all believed, especially with his size.
