I used some mana to grab dirt from outside. Because I wasn't worrying about its form it was pretty easy.
I brought it inside before laying it on the floor. Using the method I came up with I covered the grains of dirt with mana.
Moving it into the shape of a bowl before rewrapping it up with mana to hold it in place.
I grabbed the scorch pear and used it to heat up the dirt.
The brownish mana coat turned into a bright orange. It heated it up until it was hardened. I uncoated the bowl and saw it was perfect.
It was crudely made but good enough for what I was doing.
"?" I got a fire element now? I tried to use it. Brownish mana covered my hands but had more hints of orange and yellow.
I saw my skin also looked like a downgraded version of magma. With a dirt texture with the cracks showing orange and yellow.
I clasp my hands together seeing that it was the temperature of a hot pan.
But it didn't burn, it actually felt quite comfortable.
"I'll experiment more with that later" I grabbed more dirt from outside making a miniature mound out of it.
I did the same thing making another bowl. This time I heated up the bowl with my mana instead of using the scorch pear.
It took longer but it was more controlled. I made sure to heat the bottom more than the sides.
If it falls it should be able to not break too easily.
I spent another 40 minutes making 2 cups with the same method.
By the time I finished it looked to be around 4pm. "I should make some kind of sundial"
It was worth it though because after I finished my skills levelled up again.
I looked at the assortment of cups and bowls. You could clearly see the difference in how I improved but they were good for now.
I grabbed some blueberries from the ice boce and put them in each bowl. Next it used the bottom of the cups to mix them into a liquid.
After I cleaned off the cups and poured the blue berries smoothie into them.
I took a few sips of one. Shiver 'These are cold' I got up and brought one to Diana who had been sitting down staring at nothing for a while.
When I brought it to her she sat up and drank it before laying back down. "It's so boring in here" I poked my head out of the wagon to see it was getting dark.
I used the ropes to move ivy deeper into the forest behind a bush.
"Wait a minute" I completely forgot the wagon is basically invisible because of that snake skin.
Ivy went into a bush blending in with it while the snake skin blended into the environment essentially making us invisible.
"Maybe i could make a game or something" i could try to make one of those puzzle maze toys with dirt, it would also increase my manipulation of dirt.
I grabbed a large armful of dirt and set it on the ground. Diana sat up and looked towards me.
I split the dirt in half. For the bigger half I made a ring of dirt reaching to my knee.
Next I used more dirt to make a hollow semi circle around it. I used fire mana to harden it all.
I used my finger to make little indentions for seats. I used mana to make a bigger hollowed out box.'
I went to the smaller pile and made a bunch of poorly made stick figures.
I put them inside the gladiator arena in the stands. I made one bigger guy and set him in the box.
'And there is our king' I finally made 2 better made stick men and set them inside of the gladiator arena.
I used a little blueberry juice on one of them. I declared them blue and brown.
I used the remaining dirt to make 2 tiny swords. I set both on the sides of the arena. I hardened everything aside from the joints of the stick figures.
"Are you ready to RUMBLE?" Diana stood up and walked over before sitting next to me. I coated both figures joint's in mana. I had them start running towards the swords.
'This is easier than I thought.' Hardening everything but the joints was a good move so I don't have to concentrate as hard.
Blue threw a punch at brown. Brown dodged before kicking at its leg.
Blue got hit and fell on one knee. Brown jumped up and double kicked. One hit blue in the head but blue grabbed the other.
Blue stood up and threw brown away. Blue ran towards a sword picking it up. Slashing at brown leaving a cut in the ground where brown once stood.
I heard Diana start to laugh next to me.
Brown ran behind blue and kicked him in the leg before grabbing a sword and slicing. Blue used its sword to slice back at it.
"What huh?" I unconcentrated and let my mana go from the figures.
I looked towards them as they kept fighting. I noticed I saw a blue bar next to them showing how much mana they had left.
They both had half of it left. I sent mana towards them refilling it.
They both ran towards each other, attacking even faster. Blue did a reverse grip on its sword before dashing towards brown.
Brown ducked under it and sliced at its arm. Blue jumped up and sliced at its arm, cutting it off.
Brown with only one arm jumped back. Blue grabbed the other sword and ran towards brown.
Brown kicked the ground appearing in the air.
I saw that brown's mana started decreasing rapidly. Brown started morphing its other arm into a drill.
In the process it lost its legs and torso, becoming only a drill with a head. Blue readied its sword before jumping towards the drill.
Brown started rotating, decreasing its mana to a 1/10 of what it originally was. Blue also started spinning.
They both clashed with each other. Brown tore directly through blue.
Blue fell over with its head and torso gone. Beside me Diana started to cheer.
While pumping her fist in the air. Brown fell over, running out of mana.
"Holy cow that was cool"
I used my mana to reconstruct both stick figures. I activated skill golem making and set them both to attack.
I added a little more mana this time. I also made a warhammer dagger and double handed axe out of dirt.
I activated them both and set them to fight again. Me and Diana both watched while cheering.
"If i could make bigger golems this would be amazing." I could have them gather food, scout for items, defend, attack whatever i want.
It's not that bad actually. Like twice people tried to rob me. Shaking those thoughts out of my head I watched the fight.
Blue had just hit brown over the head with a hammer. I decided to start taking scores.
Blue had won 1 and brown won 1. I used golem creation to turn the people in the stands to cheer.
I saw I could make them custom things so I had them cheer at random. I had the king also move around a bit cheering for the fight.
I watched the 2 golems go back and forth for another 5 hors before falling asleep.
I moved the ring under the bench and stopped using the golem making skill, retracting all my mana that wasn't used yet.
I walked over the bed before falling asleep.
