107. Understanding
Walker had not seen the system notifying him of his skill or of how wearing the earrings had influenced it. Instead he was completely entranced by the flow of mana around him. The mana in the earth was colder and dark slowly taking mana from the ice as it melted. The air was doing the opposite, it was pushing man in to the ice making it stronger and colder. The heat from the sun was a strange mix of light and fire mana that were melting and forcing the ice to release more mana back to the air and in to the earth. The shadows of the mansion protected the ice and kept the light away also enhancing the coldness. These small events would have been overlooked normally. Now that he could see how they worked and what mana did to play a part it was as if he had seen color for the first time.
