While it was true that the light elemental mana seemed denser the higher they went, Walker saw that Midnight had started to struggle with her flight. She had not been this high before without gliding to the ground. "Stop there. Flap your wings only enough to maintain the high. Eventually, you will find the right air current to remain in the air without having to flap your wings at all."
Rise was proving to be a much more educational teacher than Walker expected, she caught his glance as he was looking at her. "What problems do you have to say now?" Rise automatically assumed there was an issue that Walker was going to bring up since he had done so before.
"No issues, I am just impressed. I didn't think you would even want to teach Midnight, or myself anything. But you proved me wrong." The fact that Walker was admitting he was wrong was odd to Rise. dragons would rarely do so. But looking at how the other royal dragons had acted, she saw them accepting things and using their words in similar ways.
"I am not an obtuse person. I have many things I have learned that even the other dragons do not know well enough to teach. If you listen, I will speak. If you do not listen, I will stop speaking." The rule was a hard set rule just for Walker but he felt warm hearing it. There was respect in Rise's rule. If Walker gave her respect she would give it as well. This alone was a massive win for their relationship even though it had started off very rocky.
Meanwhile, Midnight was solely focused on her flight. She was still flapping her wings and had lost some of the height she had gained by trying to get ahead of Walker. But she was still managing to slow her wings to catch the air better. To keep herself in the same spot.
Since Midnight had never been in this sort of training before, she had not been prepared. The strengthening of her wing muscles was proving to be a good base but far from developed like the other dragons. This was partially because of her true age being so young but also because she had lacked a proper guide in flying like many other dragons would have.
Luckily, there was the central instinct to fly that every dragon had. It was the reason that Midnight felt herself connecting batter with the air beneath her wings and how she sensed the first slight breeze in the air.
With small adjustments, Midnight began to move toward the spot her body was telling her to stay in. The changes were not unnoticed by Walker who was still standing in the air with his wind ripple skill. But Rise had changed her gaze back to him. "Where are your wings? Can you not maintain them? You can make them out of any elemental mana, correct? So make them."
The demanding attitude made Walker question if he would survive using all of his mana and falling from this height. It was too high up for him. "Don't question it, learn to make it work!" Rise pushed harder which made Walker wonder just what was driving her. However, he recalled the strength of dragons and their pride. The dragons would never settle for fear or worries like humans would. They would never stop themselves from training until they fell. No matter what the danger was.

The wind and light converged as Walker tried to mix them, but he had a feeling that this would draw too much mana. Due to the fact that they were going to absorb the light elemental mana, Walker made the executive decision to focus on the light. In a quick change, the light started to form in to wings that matched what Rise had on her back.

These wings were not the same large dragon's wings as the elemental dragon aspect held, but they were enough to carry Walker. "Make them smaller. You are not the same size as I am. Copying and making them your own are two separate endeavors."
Feeling that Rise was right but annoyed that he had heard this before, Walker began to alter the wings as he saw fit. He began to ignore the fact that he was using a lot of mana but instead forced the light elemental mana to condense.
The smaller dragon wings were closer to that of a hatchling's wings. But they were able to mimic some of the demon's wings that Walker had seen as well. The reason he had mixed them was that the demon's wings always seemed to be better balanced whereas the dragon wings had more power. The two traits seemed like they would be the best combination.
From there, Walker began to make them move as he saw fit. He already had the elemental senses to find the wind that midnight was using to keep herself floating. Walker completely stopped using his wind ripple skill and showed off the dense white wings that had formed out of purer light elemental mana.
"Those look much more fitting of a royal dragon. Balanced and strong. You will not need another dragon's help to fly like one anymore." The reason that Rise had truly pushed Walker just now became clear. She was ensuring that he would represent them like a dragon should. A dragon stronger and above others. But this didn't deter Walker; he felt he had grasped a concept he had missed.
The mana he felt his body spending while using the elemental dragon wings had drastically lowered when he focused on one singular elemental mana. Then when he changed them, he had used a lot of mana at once. The final result was a set of light elemental wings that were better suited for him and had a drastically smaller amount of mana draw on his body.
"I can use these wings a lot better than the others," Walker spoke out loud with surprise. He was actually gaining mana back faster than what he was using because of his other skills. The mana in the air was almost completely fueling the wings. "I can use every singular elemental wing set if the atmosphere is right!"
This was the final realization that made Walker excited and happy. Depending on the existing elemental man, Walker would be able to fly like any other dragon. The elemental wings skill had finally become his instead of the poor mock up that he had used before. He even noticed that the skill was no longer elemental dragon wings but had changed to altered elemental wings skill. Not that Walker would stop calling them dragon wings. He liked the sound of it. Who wouldn't?
Midnight had witnessed the changes in Walker's wings and used the gathering of light elemental man to take what Rise had said in to effect. The sheen of white light that fell around Midnight was more than what Rise expected. It caused her eyes to open a little wider as she sensed the light elemental mana gathering near Midnight's heart.

"You could use a pure light elemental breath attack. It cuts like a blade and blinds others. However, you are not a light elemental dragon. You are a nature dragon champion. Accept that and mix your natural golden flames with your light elemental mana. It should be second nature to you. You have the heart for it." Rise was not ignorant to what kind of body Midnight had. She would never push a dragon champion away from the strength they were born with. Midnight was a born champion.
The light elemental mana that Midnight had let enter her body had naturally found its way to the golden flame heart. Yes, the golden flame heart had fire elemental properties, but it was more than that, it had the ability to burn hotter and bring the other elemental manas in to the flames to become one with it. For a nature dragon. This was an ideal blessing to have.
In a sudden roar, Midnight opened her maw to reveal a golden light that erupted from her. She was only able to sustain it for a second but the blinding gold light seemed to cut through the clouds above them. "That was light that has been refined by a golden flame heart. I was told a story once about it. I wanted to see if it was true." There was a sadness in the air after Rise said this. But also a hope that she seemed to hold.
"Train that until you can breathe those light flames out for over ten seconds. That is when you can use them in battle." Rise slowly descended toward the city yet again, she was not even focusing on them anymore. Lost to her own thoughts.
