Legion, meanwhile, was still trading blows with the Mutated Tier 7 zombie, while all this was happening, a split second later, both Titan and Alec shot out of the crater.Even as dust still clouded the battlefield, obscuring the view of the few human mages fortunate enough to witness Alec’s fight, he and Titan emerged into sight the moment they soared upward.The Mutated Strength-type zombie, which had been pummelling Legion with relentless strikes around, was suddenly forced onto the defensive as Alec and Titan joined the fray, their attacks flowed seamlessly, as if they were moving in perfect sync.Yet, the strength-type zombie was not to be underestimated, it met their blows head-on, refusing to buckle under the relentless barrage, even as it was being overwhelmed from three directions, it held its ground, its skin seemingly hardening to withstand their strikes.The low-rank mages standing at the city gates could only watch in awe, their eyes struggled to track the rapid movements

Alec finally clenched his right fist, causing the black hole to vanish, but the damage was already done, the zombie’s severed hand lay in a pool of its own dark, corrupted blood, still dripping from the wound.In just a few seconds, Alec had not only disabled the zombie’s defensive skill but had also severed its other hand, drastically weakening its combat capabilities, it had all happened too fast for the creature to fully comprehend what was going on.Without hesitation, Alec stretched out his left hand, and the bone katana, which was still lodged in the zombie’s right arm, was forcefully yanked free, as fresh spray of blood followed as the blade tore through its flesh which is now vulnerable after its defences had been compromised.The katana twirled through the air in a controlled spin before seamlessly landing back in Alec’s grasp.With smooth precision, he swung the weapon, flicking off the excess blood on it, before taking a firm stance, he raised the katana to eye level, his r

From that moment onward, Alec and his golems were like tigers given wings after their first kill, especially Alec. Not only did he slay the next Tier 7 zombie alone, but he had done so effortlessly.This was largely because his bone katana had become significantly stronger after absorbing the bones of a Tier 7 strength-type zombie, combined with Alec coating the blade in his black flames, it gave him a distinct edge.The black flames burned through anything, and were nearly impossible to extinguish until it died out itself, and it also inflicted lasting damage even on high-rank mages, and it swiftly became Alec’s go-to enchantment, allowing him to wield his weapon mastery to its fullest. For a zombie facing a mage with such speed and intermediate weapon mastery, it was nothing short of a nightmare. As no matter how it attacked, Alec had his Earth element reinforcing his defences, and even as he fought, he maintained a Stone Skin spell, which assimilated into his body to guard again

While the Blood Moon War in Estonia City seemed to be drawing to a swift conclusion, the same couldn’t be said for the other cities under the Northern Kingdom, as across the region, the attacking forces of the second Dimension had only intensified.In the capital city, the Ancient Marionette Clan led the defence of the southern gates, facing an assault from vampires. The battle had raged on for quite some time, and various high-tier clans under the Marionette Clan’s command had joined the fight at that side, however, the vampires found themselves at a slight disadvantageDue to the fact that the Ancient Marionette Clan didn’t engage directly, instead, they sent forth their puppets, most of which lacked blood, making it difficult for the vampires to feed and recover.Fortunately for the vampires, not all their opponents were from the Marionette Clan, other mages on the battlefield provided a source of nourishment, allowing them to regain some strength, while one might assume that fig

Just thinking of sucking blood from a young lady like her was like a drug to them, but as the two Tier 6 noble vampires closed in within thirty meters, the eyes of the flaming swordsman, which had been dull, suddenly lit up with life. As Colour radiated back into his pupils as Beatrice tapped his shoulder, and a mana string appeared, linking them together.[> Mid-Tier Spell + Skill – Flaming Arc Slash <]In one smooth motion, the flaming swordsman unsheathed his sword and performed a swift, mesmerizing sword dance. As a surge of searing orange flames engulfed the vampires lunging toward him, in the next instant, he stood precisely thirty meters away from his previous position, his blade still ablaze.Those watching were stunned to see the Tier 6 noble vampires, no less beheaded in an instant with their bodies burning. They were formidable opponents, yet the flaming swordsman puppet had not only overpowered them but done so effortlessly with the speed they seemed so proud of, his
The Golem Mage Disagreement 1.
Alec could clearly see the mages of the Gordons Clan in high spirits as they broke into song, among the low-rank mages, not a single one had fallen.They had fought with precision, maintaining a calculated approach that ensured their survival, their spirit armours had also played a crucial role in keeping them from being infected, however, the mid-rank mages had not been as fortunate, three Tier 5 mages had succumbed to zombie infection, and two Tier 4 mages had lost their lives in the chaotic final moments of battle.As Alec descended back to the ground, he couldn’t shake the heavy weight in his chest. While the rest of the mages celebrated their victory, he found himself burdened by guilt, replaying the battle in his mind, what could he have done differently? How could he have ensured that none of his clansmen fell? He blamed himself for not being strong enough to end the mid-rank battle as decisively as he had done with the low-rank skirmish.The city gates creaked open, and the

“I believe I made it quite clear that I wouldn’t allow your clan the opportunity to take the corpse, however, in light of your impressive performance in helping the city win, I’ll allow you to take only the corpses of the zombies your clan has slain,” the City Lord said, staring at George Gordon as if waiting for him to object.But it was Alec who spoke first, stepping out from behind before his grandfather could process what the city lord really wants.“But the city hall has no use for these corpses, so why go so far to keep us from taking them, especially if you’re all are just going to burn them anyway?” Alec asked.“Alec, don’t,” the Patriarch said, stepping forward and moving Alec behind him. Alec, who had dismissed his spirit equipment, stood bare-chested with his kimono draped around his waist not happy with his grandfather’s decision.“Well, for your information, Gordon’s cub, these corpses were requested by a city hall researcher who wants to experiment on them, so yes, I’

Alec walked over to where the Type 3 zombie bodies were kept and swiped his hand again, aiming to absorb about fourteen of them into his spatial ring, as a small, swirling light appeared, lifting the selected amount of bodies into the air before they vanished into his space ring.The City Lord’s eyes widened in disbelief, after Alec’s move, only four high-rank zombie corpses remained on the ground.He didn’t actually need the zombies corpses, but he had no intention of letting the Gordons get their hands on them so easily. As he still couldn’t figure out their sudden interest in the corpses of fallen second-dimensional invaders, especially not zombies, whose bodies held virtually no value. Their power stones were corrupted, making them unusable for cultivation unless someone intended to become a zombie themselves.And it was also not as if they had power crystals suitable for forging spirit equipment, which made the Gordons’ insistence on claiming the corpses all the more suspicio

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
