For example, a water element ability user could actually sense things through water, but if the surrounding was dark, they also could not see anything.
There were drawbacks and disadvantages, but elemental ability users had always been more powerful and all-rounded than rare and unique abilities.
It looked like abilities such as weapon manipulation or various strange abilities were stronger than elemental abilities, but the truth was not like that.
In most cases, elemental ability users would be surrounded by a lot of natural elements, so even if they could not conjure the element out of thin air, they would still be strong.
Many solo ability users with unique abilities could not fully exert the potential of their ability because their ability was 'incomplete'.
It was as if people with only one ability were limited to a certain power fragment while those with more than one ability finally got the complete power fragment.
Finley could manipulate wood, so naturally, he was somewhat similar to a plant manipulation ability user but if the plants didn't have any wood element, for example, grasses and flowers...
He could not manipulate them.
The pine tree naturally had wood elements, and Finley relied on this to share senses with the three branches of the tree they were resting on.
This search method was way faster than the two students' manual search because, within just a few seconds, Finley could even sense whether there were insect monsters around or not.
After scanning the whole tree with his wood manipulation ability, Finley immediately shook his head and told the seniors about his finding.
"We better move to another tree. I don't find any Snow Ape here, but there are a lot of small insect monsters."
The two seniors knew that Finley could manipulate a lot of elemental abilities, but when they heard what Finley said...
The two seniors were still shocked again and again.
How could this little guy already finished searching the entire tree when the tree was huge and tall?
They knew that elemental ability users could share senses with the element they controlled, but this speed was too fast, okay?
The two seniors once again felt how useless they were because Finley might be able to detect the surroundings by sharing senses with the snow.
Of course, this skill was more exhausting than manipulating the wind to hear noises and such.
Finley could be a scout, a defender, an striker, and so many things...
This was a true all-rounder, the little prince of elements.
The people in the academy often called the boy as the little elemental prince.
If they didn't want to confuse the boy with the real elemental spirit, they would actually want to call him the elemental prince.
Speaking of elemental spirits, there were many students in the academy who didn't have elemental ability but they were Elementalists.
It was said that elementalist were a notch better than elemental ability users because those elementalist who only had contact with one elemental spirit could still exert all the power of that element.
This was impossible for a solo elemental ability user.
Many people even wondered whether Finley was actually an elementalist because elementalists were just like shamans who could contract more than one elemental spirit if they were strong.
This way, they naturally could have more than just one element ability.
Finley could manipulate all elements in this world, which was too overpowered for a child who was only ten years old.
The students in the academy secretly guessed whether the boy's feat was because of the fairy's blessing or because he was actually an elementalist.
Elemental ability users were often hostile to elementalists due to their similar ability but different ability source.
The elemental ability users accused the elementalists of being weak and only relying on their contracted spirit while the elementalists looked down on elemental ability users who were not 'chosen' by elemental spirits.
Anyway, both sides felt that they were inferior to each other.
The two seniors, who had just been shocked by Finley's action, also recalled the rumor about Finley and secretly thought whether the boy was indeed an elementalist.
It was said that an elementalist was more sensitive to five senses sharing through element than ordinary elemental ability users.
| Could it be that Finley was also like that?
The boy didn't know what the seniors were thinking and just politely urged them to leave the tree because he was the one who would use the wind to bring the three of them to fly from one tree to another.
After Finley urged his seniors, the two students immediately put aside their useless thoughts and followed Finley to fly from one tree to another.
It was actually a novel experience to be flying with the wind and not having wings at all.
Thus, the two seniors enjoyed the short flight while Ainsley followed behind, flying gracefully with her wings.
The team repeated their action to search for a lone snow ape a few times.
There was actually one time when the team almost met a group of snow apes in one huge tree, but Finley discovered their traces in advance and the group immediately detoured to avoid problems.
After fifteen minutes of painstakingly doing a blanket search to find one lone snow ape, the group finally got lucky.
The group was already deep into the forest when they finally found one lone ranger who might be separating from the group because it wanted to hunt fruits all for itself or other reasons.
Anyway, the group didn't actually land on the tree with that lone snow ape and landed on the tree next to their target's tree.
