Brandon retreated to a quiet corner in the courtyard, finding solace in meditation as he sought to replenish his depleted mana. He knew that he needed to regain his strength for the upcoming round, since Alec made it clear that they would be sparring continuously.Observing Brandon's behavior, Alec nodded in approval. However, Arthur couldn't help but feel a urge to throw up as It was disconcerting to see Alec exuding such maturity and composure, especially considering they were of the same age."Begin," Alec commanded, And the golems moved forward, Surprisingly, the six-armed zombies hesitated and backed away. However, the other golem, adorned with a power crystal on its chest, continued to advance gracefully towards Arthur."Oh, great, I only have to face one of these guys, Easy peasy," Arthur said confidently.Summoning his familiar stone bullet spell, Arthur created ten sharp stones that swiftly spiraled upward. He planned to disrupt the golem's movement with this attack.To
Alec lay on top of a tall tree in his courtyard, engrossed the book his grandfather had given him about golem making. As he looked up, he noticed Arthur and Brandon still fiercely battling each other. It had been two weeks since they had approached Alec, asking him to take them in and train them, and since then they had made remarkable progress.Both Arthur and Brandon had advanced from being (Low) Tier 1 mages to ( Mid) Tier 1 mages , enabling them to handle the golems with more ease and achieve victories through dedicated practice. Moreover, their fighting abilities had greatly improved, shedding the signs of amateurism they had shown earlier, when fighting against the Golems.However, it wasn't just Arthur and Brandon who had developed. The special golems had also acquired new skills and their weapon mastery had reached level 5, increasing the challenges for both Arthur and Brandon. Despite this, they remained undefeated and, in fact, now took the initiative to counterattack.
Alec gasped as he watched all that was happening. He was really curious to see what the new golem would turn out to look like. Even though he had watched Legion go through this process of evolution before, he was still extremely curious to see how this new golem would look.The mana started transforming the golem as it grew taller all of a sudden. "Ohhhh," both Arthur and Brandon could not keep their mouths closed as they watched the golem grow tall to the same height as Legion."Why do I feel like I am witnessing the birth of another monster like Legion?" Arthur questioned, nobody in particular."Definitely because the aura it’s releasing is almost as suffocating as the one Legion released the moment he became a Tier 1 golem," Brandon replied to Arthur’s question in a very detailed way that it gave even him cringes just thinking of fighting another monster on the level of Legion.Just as they were making suggestions, the transformation of the Axe-wielding golem had ended. It was a
“Wait, quick question, can I upgrade more than one golem at a time?” Alec asked the system.[ × : Of course, you just have to be ready for the huge loss of mana. I hope you remember what happened the first time you evolved a golem.]“Oh, I completely forgot about that,” Alec replied to the system in his mind, remembering the serious headache he had when he used 100 mana to evolve Legion back when he was still a (low) Tier 1 mage.[ × : Well, those are the types of things you should not forget about, since I am taking about 40 mana again for helping you answer another question]“Well, you do a good job reminding me about that,” Alec said, while opening his status tab to check how much mana he had left.[Status Tab]Name: Alec Gordons》Race: Human》Level: 6》Tier: 1 [mid-tier]■ Exp till next level: 325/1000[Attributes]》Strength: 14+》Agility: 16+》Endurance: 13+》Mana: (259/500)Affinity: Earth (high)+, Fire (high)+Available points: 12System points: 689Opening his status tab made A
"What, how come you don’t ask me before you name it?" Arthur complained."Nothing you say can change this, i am naming it Oni, and that’s all you need to know," Alec replied in a nonchalant way, making Arthur fume with anger since he definitely didn’t understand what the word Oni means.And Alec was too tired to even bother explaining its name to Arthur. "Thank... s, master," the six arm Asura golem said as it only bowed its head."Thank God I didn’t get any gladiator path golem again," Alec thought to himself. Since even if he crafted them, it seems he could not really alter their paths or it might affect the golem's potential. "At least I get to choose how they look at the beginning and which weapon they wield,That's more than enough for me," Alec said to console himself."What am I going to name you now?" Alec whispered, but it was loud enough for the mage next to him to pick his words."Sword Saint," Arthur yelled out fast before Alec named the golem with another name he was no
In other parts of the city, families that had always kept a low profile were finally emerging to showcase their hidden and mysterious powers. All the clans in the city had opened their doors, leaving many people speculating about their reasons for finally revealing themselves, after going into close doors seclusion before. The revelation came when they realized that the banquet for the younger generation was about to commence. This prompted all the hidden forces within the Estonia city to reveal their true strength, but the main reason for these once-secretive families stepping into the spotlight remained a mystery.The Gordon family had just concluded their family meeting to decide who would attend the banquet, and it came as no surprise that Alec was chosen. Even though they didn't know his actual strength since he had not come out from his house for days, they were confident that with Alec present, the Gordon family would be unstoppable. After all, Alec possessed an elite golem
"Hey Alec, why didn't you allow any of the golems to accompany us?, It would be a reminder to those people who quickly forgot about your brilliance that you're still the boss of the Gordons clan younger generation ," Arthur remarked."Shut up, Arthur, The only reason you want me to summon the golems is so you can show off with them. Why don't you just be as quiet as Brandon, who's walking on my left side?, If you continue with your noisy attitude, I might just sell you off," Alec snapped in anger.He had been trying to figure out what went wrong in his golem-crafting process that kept causing him to fail at the final stage. No matter how carefully he merged the elements to form a lava golem, he always ended up with failure. It was a defeat that weighed heavily on him, considering the amount of time he had invested in the experiment."Boss, I apologize for that, but I could never be like Brandon," Arthur responded, shivering at the mere thought of staying silent mostly the entire dura
The Gordon Clan finally arrived at the banquet location, which was held at the city lord's house. And Draco wasted no time and immediately descended from the carriage, not bothering to give any speeches to the kids as he deemed it unnecessary."Let's go in," Agnes took the lead and moved to the front, positioning herself as the leader, since Draco seems unconcerned with them. This angered Arthur, as he was certain she was only doing it to prove she was better than Alec as always. And Now that she had finally broken through to the Mid Tier 1 realm , she saw herself as superior, especially since Alec Promised not to use his golems here in the pretense of fighting fair . That was probably why she had been acting so arrogant the whole time believing she won't lose to Alec if he didn't have the support of his Golems. Before Arthur could confront her, Alec tugged on his hand and shook his head, signaling that it wasn't worth it."It ain't worth it," Alec Silently whispered as they fol
