Knight wasted no time as he hurried back towards Alec and the rest of the group. As he was Emerging from the shadows, he was immediately swarmed by everyone, eager to hear the intel he had gathered."Not too far from here, about twenty kilometers in that direction, the hunter Orcs entered a cave." " While I was spying on them, I made a mistake and was seen by one of the Orcs. I had to kill him," Knight explained, his tone filled with a sense of urgency.Although he had disposed of the body, Knight expressed concerns about the possibility of it being discovered soon, which would ruin their element of surprise.Brandon, who had been relatively quiet since the journey began, couldn't help but voice his concern. "How and why would you allow yourself to slip up?, Aren't you supposed to be the perfect Mage for this with your exceptional skills?"The thought of being chased by seven hundred plus Orcs sent shivers down Brandon's spine, and he couldn't help but fidget.Alec, displaying his
The Golem Mage Ice Element Spells.
Deep beneath the cave lay an undiscovered underground mine that no faction had stumbled upon yet, except for the Orcs of the village settlement. They had been exploiting it to its full potential, explaining why their village seemed stronger than it should be. While the highest strength a village of their size was supposed to possess was Tier 3 Orcs , they already boasted a Tier 4 Orc and countless Tier 3 Orcs due to the power mine.This mine was no ordinary one; it was a power mine, where naturally occurring and unattributed power stones could be mined and directly absorbed. This explained the rapid increase in the village's strength, even though they were a newly settled community. The Orcs were desperate to keep the mine a secret, for if word got out that a small Orc family village was attempting to control such a valuable resource, they might face annihilation from larger Orc villages who coveted the great income that came with owning a power mine.The leader of the thirty Orcs
The Golem Mage Trouble Again.
"How dare you!" Gabriel shouted, rising from the ground with his hand ablaze in a fierce icy glow. Alec, on the other hand was already prepared for any potential attack, as he summoned his tattoos and was transforming them into his Salamander armor set. But before they could clash, Grace stepped in between them, placing her hands on Gabriel and causing his spells to dissipate as if they were never cast.A smile remained on Grace's face as she looked at her brother. "You don't want to mess up now, do you?" She drew closer, whispering something in Gabriel's ear, a smile still playing on her lips. Alec strained to hear, but the words escaped him. All he knew was that Gabriel no longer had any intention of attacking. Gabriel snorted and turned his gaze elsewhere, prompting Alec to retract his armor set, feeling the imminent danger had passed."No, you should have allowed us attack first, now they got the kill. " Lucas complained, throwing a tantrum as he gripped his sword. The att

Gabriel could only watch in awe as Alec and the supposed ragtag group he thought they were effortlessly killed the Orcs one by one, without any casualties.An Orc attempting to flee met a gruesome end when Alec's left hand shot an earth bullet, impaling its head, while he simultaneously swung his Changdao with his right hand, taking down another Orc.Lucas, with the help of Brandon, finally managed to dispatch the five Orcs that had cornered him. Their teamwork and formation proved effective as they quickly learned the Orcs' moves and executed several combo sword attacks, leading to the swift demise of the Orcs.Legion and Titan, true to form, demonstrated their remarkable efficiency, easily handling the Tier 3 Orcs in one-on-one battles. However, it was Titan who excelled in dispatching them at a rapid pace, prompting Legion to stick by his side, always delivering the final blow with his fatal laser spear.On the other hand, Knight had proven himself to be the most valuable member

Alec had sent Knight back to ask the other group to meet up with them, despite Knight's urge to complain. He knew better than to anger Alec at that moment. Additionally, Knight was the fastest of them all, making it easier for him to reach the other group than any other Mage in their group, so he grumpily accepted his new job However, Alec had made it clear that he wanted nothing to do with Gabriel or Grace, even though they had reached the Mid Rank Mage Realm. The only reason he was still tolerating their presence was because they were linked with James, who he deeply respected, and have been the one to bring them along in the first place. Watching Knight run off with such speed piqued Gabriel and Grace's curiosity about what was happening, but Alec had taken on the job of guarding the cave entrance. He showed no intention of allowing them inside as he summoned Legion, Titan, Axe Demon, Sword Saint, and the Hive Queen. Although he had kept many of his golems hidden, this was t

Deep within the region, where the divine tree ruled, one of its detached roots, which had previously attacked Alec and Astrid's group, emerged from the ground. Its eyes opened wide as it let out a piercing shriek that resonated throughout the forest, awakening all the wooden lifeforms under its command."That bastard is here, Terran Dunce's disciple is here, I will get him this time, even if it's the last thing I do, Gather!" the root declared, commanding the nearby woods to move and encircle its body. Slowly, the detached root transformed into a humanoid figure composed entirely of pure wood.Once it had finished forming, cracks adorned its core. Gritting its teeth, the root studied its reflection in a nearby pond with a sense of determination."Terran did this to me, so I am going to kill his disciple and make him go mad once again, It would be even better if he comes after me in anger and the Orc overlords finish him off once and for all. That way, I can regain my lost prestige
The Golem Mage The Chase Part 1
When Alec and the gang emerged, they noticed that even Grace and Gabriel, who had decided to keep their distance, had repositioned themselves closer to the Golems. At the cave entrance, an entire army of plant life forms stood before them, Just the sight of them filled Alec with a sense of foreboding.There was only one plant Lifeform that Alec knew that could be so enraged as to mobilize an army of this size against him. This could be seen from the fact that the plant Lifeform was even willing to cross the borders where Divine Tree held no dominion, all to take Alec down."Surely, you didn't expect to see me again, did you?" The root, now in Its form of a plant humanoid, stepped forward with outstretched arms. Its gaze bore into Alec, but Alec still struggled to recall who it was. This action of Alec just seemed to infuriate the root even more."Ah, don't tell me you've forgotten me so soon, Your master was the one who wounded me to the point where I had to descend in realm jus
The Golem Mage The Chase Part 2.
The Orc chief swung his large battle axe down on the humanoid form of the Root who led his army of plant life forms in pursuit of Alec and his group. Meanwhile, the same army struggled to keep the Orcs out of the race to reach Alec and his group.Suddenly, the Root sensed someone attempting to launch a sneak attack and swiftly swung his left hand behind him, conjuring a wooden shield in mid-air, stopping the Huge Battle Axe. He turned around to confront the Orc chief, who appeared like an evil incarnate in his skull helmet as he rode on his wolf mount."How dare you come between me and my preys?" the Root questioned, slamming his body towards the Wolf that had finally caught up with him."you, a mere plant, dare call living beings your prey?, When did you become a beast that preys on humans as you desire ?, Don't mess with me. I'm certain now that you're chasing the same humans who killed my hunters, raided and stole my power stones. And you're in my way!" The Orc chief responded wi

Auction 5.
Which was equivalent to at least another ten bodies if they were counting in Tier 5 terms; and now the pills’ value had reached the equivalent of twenty Tier 5 bodies which is the original realm Alec had placed the bid.As the two men stared toward each other’s booth, trying to anticipate each other’s next move and act as cautiously as possible, Alec stood with his hands behind his back, neither announcing nor acknowledging their bids.Everyone was so pumped about his heated bidding battle that the both Booth were probably the only ones being stared at, the crowd found the bidding battle far more interesting than expected, many realizing they even enjoyed watching such power plays.‘Yes! Fight! Bid and spend all your corpses here, in the end, I’ll still be the biggest winner, no matter how much you believe I’m taking a loss,’ Alec thought as he watched them close to breaking down, though he kept a nonchalant face, deep down he was almost jumping for joy seeing how much the pills were
Auction 4.
“For the second round, I’ve prepared a batch of various items to speed things up,” Alec began as he walked towards the stone pillar and pulled off the black cloth that had been covering the items. “I have here three different items for the second round, and as you can see, there are three bottles, each holding cultivation pills, the first bottle contains ten Tier 3 cultivation pills.” “The second bottle holds another ten Tier 4 cultivation pills, while the third bottle contains five Tier 5 cultivation pills, and these three bottles will not be sold separately but as a joint sale, and the starting bid is six Tier 5 bodies.” Alec finally concluded his introduction of the second item, which happened to be a bundled sale, after his statement about the contents of the three pill bottles, the entire auction house fell silent. The breaths of many inside hitched as they could hardly believe their eyes, all this while, when they wanted to cultivate, they had relied on power stones harveste
Auction 3.
The second female mage who had moved backstage earlier now rolled out another table, this time two tables interlocked together to prevent them from separating, one of the tables was empty, while the other was covered in a dark cloth, immediately making many in the crowd realize that was the second item of the day hidden beneath it.As the female mages reached the center, she and the first lady who had remained on stage with Alec began transferring the newly purchased armour, won by the black-clothed man onto the empty table. Once they were done, they placed the new item on the new empty stone pillar.Afterward, the first lady rolled the armour offstage while the crowd waited eagerly for the unveiling of the second item.“Well, in this situation, I’ll go straight to the point and not keep you all in suspense,” Alec said as he started walking toward the stone pillar. However, despite his words, there were many in the crowd who didn’t believe him.Because as he was observing some peop
Auction 2.
While those interested in the armour were prepared and waiting for Alec to declare the starting bid, the others, who had no intention of bidding couldn’t help letting their imaginations run wild. As they felt If the opening item was already of mid-tier caliber, what else could possibly be in store?, Many silently prayed that something matching their desires would appear next so they could make use of the corpses they had brought in their space rings.As murmurs of speculation filled the hall, Alec stood calmly, a knowing smile on his face as he observed their expressions. This was all part of his plan, starting strong with a high-tier item to set the tone, even if the next few items didn’t match the first in quality, the excitement would remain. As the crowd had already been made to believe that treasures awaited them, and that momentum alone would keep their spirits high, as the eagerly awaited what’s next.This was the power of first impressions, and Alec knew how to wield it
Auction 1.
Though Alec already had his suspicions about who was responsible for the probing, but he chose to act as if he hadn’t noticed anything at all.“Seeing how eager you all are to discover what we’ve prepared for you today, I won’t waste any more of your time, especially as you all are respectable figures, so allow me to first explain the one and only rule of the Gordons Auction House.” Alec began, his voice calm but firm.“No matter who you are or what position you hold outside these walls, once you step into this hall, you’ve accepted to be under our care, and with that comes our expectation of a little respect back from you, it’s quite simple, really.”“Our one rule is this: there will be no fighting inside the auction hall, if anyone believes themselves to be above reason, they are free to try gathering mana in a bid to attack, but just know, whatever happens after that, we won’t be held responsible.” Alec’s tone was firm, a quiet authority threading each word as he addressed the crow
D Day 2.
Just as the crowd waited in eager anticipation for the auction to begin, a sudden flash of light burst across the stage, instantly drawing the attention of every guest, conversations fell silent as all eyes turned toward the source, and from the backstage, Alec emerged, flanked by two female mages at his side.He wore a regal-looking robe, deep brown with black trim, bearing the Gordons clan emblem boldly emblazoned on his back and a smaller crest over his left chest, though he’d clearly attempted to comb his hair back neatly, but a few stubborn strands still jutted out at the edges, adding an almost roguish charm to his appearance.Beside him stood two stunning female mages, dressed in elegant yet provocative outfits Alec had personally arranged for the event, their short skirts and stylish tops left little to the imagination, instantly catching the attention of several lustful onlookers. But these women weren’t just decoration, their job for the day was to assist Alec in presentin
D Day.
While the city lord waited impatiently for any word from the Gordons clan, a message finally reached him, just a day before the long-awaited auction, he sat in his study, his usual spot by the window that directly faced the Gordons estate. It had become something of a habit for him, to watch from there, hoping for a sign of unrest at the Gordons, but to his quiet frustration, the sealed gates of the Gordons had been opened, and the estate had come alive again, bustling as though nothing had happened a few days ago.As he stared out, a knock sounded at the door, and he turned to see his son, Alistair, stride in with an unreadable expression.“Father, there’s finally news from the Gordons clan,” Alistair announced, stopping beside his father’s chair.Those words alone made the previously lax city lord sit up, a sharp gleam of interest in his eyes. “Speak. What is it?”Alistair wasted no time. “The Gordons have dispatched envoy mages across the city, reaffirming that the auction w
Merit System.
It had been days since the three assassins were dispatched to the Gordons Clan to eliminate Alec, but with no word or sign of their success, the City Lord was beginning to regret his impulsive decision, the silence gnawed at him as a bitter reminder that he might have once again acted too hastily.He still fumed at how Alec had exchanged sharp words with him in front of so many people, tarnishing his credibility, and the only way he knew to deal with such a problem was to erase it. Alec was quickly becoming another Gordons weed, stubborn, persistent, and dangerously difficult to uproot.On the night of the planned assassination, he had seen the massive array deployed over the Gordons estate, he’d almost allowed himself to relax, convinced that the assassins must have succeeded in their mission. In his mind, there was no other reason for the Gordons to raise such a formation unless it was to contain either someone or something, and he believed it was to keep the assassins from escap
The Delivery.
Eventually, the night dragged on as the mages of the Gordons Clan who hadn’t joined the earlier battle busied themselves, moving wine and supplies in preparation for the celebration ahead.It was tradition in the Gordons Clan that whenever a mage advanced to a new realm, they were to celebrate the breakthrough with loved ones and officially register their new realm at the Clan Hall the following morning. This helped the Elders and the Patriarch track the steady rise in the clan’s strength, but tonight was anything but ordinary, over nine hundred mages had broken through whether it was to a new realm or a small breakthrough in the same realm all would be celebrated tonight as all logistic duties like recording the new realms was pushed to the next day. Some from the main bloodline, others from mixed bloodlines, and even a few enforcers the clan had taken in over the years. Yet, none of that mattered tonight, the entire clan was uniting in a single celebration, preparing to honour
