Day of Awakening
last update2022-08-30 19:51:27

Finally, it is the day of Awakening again for the Gordon clan, Once every year, children who are 15 years old and above are allowed to use the Orb of Awakening to awaken their magic powers.

Only after the awakening the mana joints in the body can they connect with the help of the Orb of Awakening, enabling anyone to dream of becoming a mage.

Luckily for Alec , he just turned 15 a few days ago, right before the Gordon family Awakening day, If he had turned 15 after, he would have had to wait another year before being able to awaken the mana joints in his body.

Very soon, noise was suddenly heard from the front of the crowd,The commotion was so intense that even Alec, who was hiding in one corner, could not help but notice it.

He looked over and saw his grandfather, the Gordon family patriarch, and his brother, the grand elder of the Gordon family, coming down from where they sat in the high seat.

The look of excitement and surprise was evident on their faces as they made their way to the spot where the Orb of Awakening was standing.

"Did you see that just now? The light of Awakening shone so brightly with a yellow color,and a slight blue colour " one person from the younger generation said.

"Yes, I saw it. I'm sure someone has awakened the Earth element, and water elements " another replied.

"It is the daughter of the first elder who awakened the power of Earth elements, And she has a high affinity for it. I'm sure after this, we will have another tier 1 mage in our family soon."they overlooked the water element affinity as they felt it was too low compared to the earth element.

Alec overheard most of the younger generation gossiping about who could have caused such a big reaction that even his Grandfather and his brother came down from the high seat.

But when I heard that it was the first elder's daughter, all my laziness disappeared, and I grunted in displeasure.

*****************************

The name of the girl in question was Agnes, She was the second daughter of the First Elder and was brought up with so much love, Since the first elder never had a son, he devoted all his attention and resources to raising his daughters.

She had always been a pain in the neck for Alec, constantly comparing herself to him at every opportunity, She was among the group within the Gordon family's younger generation who believed that he should not be their leader.

She went against him because she believed she was much stronger than him, based on the fact that he was always protected by the patriarch, and was never involved in the younger generation training before.

Others believed he should not be the leader because he was considered a "blaze family bastard,"by outsiders, with his mixed blood of Blaze Clan Red Flaming coloured hair and Gordon Clan Yellow iris.

Many of them believed that if he wasn't there, someone else from the younger generation would have had the chance to be the next family head of the Gordon family.

As Agnes turned around, her eyes happened to glance at Alec, and she sent him a smug smile as if to tell him, "I'm better than you now."

Alec knew that the family would give full priority to raising anyone with a high affinity for any element.

Even though the family specialized in raising those with Earth elements, they still tried their best to provide the best resources for those born with high affinities in other elements.

The Gordon family had always been blessed with the Earth element, so it was no surprise when Agnes awakened with an affinity for Earth.

After all, only a few unique cases had emerged where people from the Gordon Clan failed to awakened Earth Element, and awoken other elements, most of the time, it was due to being dual-element mages, awakening a secondary element alongside Earth.

Soon, the commotion was resolved, and the Awakening ground became alive with movement as each person began testing their affinities.

Despite the excitement, no one else was able to awaken a high affinity this time, There were cases of dual elements awakening, though, such as a boy who awakened both Earth and Metal elements.

While the Earth element had a mid-level affinity, the Metal element had a lower affinity, This boy caused another commotion as people realized that the Metal element came from a branch of the Earth element.

If he was able to combine both elements in the future, his firepower would be on par with someone with a high element affinity.

Not long after the boy, another person awakened a dual-element, The Awakening ground erupted in commotion again, this time as a girl awakened both Earth and Water elements, just like Agnes it was noticed since her water affinity was quite high.

The Patriarch and the Grand Elder had to come down once more to escort them away and restore order for the second time that day.

It was evident that this generation of the Gordon family had a lot of talent, bringing joy to the faces of the elders and the patriarch.

"It seems this generation will produce double the number of young mages compared to previous generations. As they say, the young are meant to take over from the old," the first elder said with a sigh as he sat

"It seems this time the number of young mages born into our family will be double that of the previous generations" the first elder shared, his voice tinged with a mix of wonder and anticipation. Seated at the high table with their fellow elders, they eagerly discussed the future of the Gordon family.

As a Tier 3 Clan, the Gordons were renowned for their prowess in Golem, However, the recent influx of talented individuals within their ranks promised to propel them to even greater heights.

With their patriarch having recently advanced to the tier 7 mage realm, the Gordons commanded respect and admiration from other families in the city.

"The younger generation brings not only greater numbers, but exceptional talent," another elder chimed in, a proud smile illuminating their face. "Our family's strength will skyrocket with their abilities. It's as if the Gordon family is destined for greatness."

Amidst the crackling excitement in the courtyard, the focus shifted to Alec, who was now preparing to awaken, Every eye turned towards him, filled with curiosity and eager anticipation.

The moment held significance not just for Alec the Heir of the Patriarch , but also for the entire clan, It was a time of hope and possibility, where the future of the Gordon family seemed brighter than ever, so they were incredibly curious To find out what he shall awaken .

Curiously, Arthur asked, "So, what's this behemoth's name?" hoping for a cool and impressive answer.However, he could practically see question marks hovering over Alec's head, indicating his lack of a name for the golem.Arthur couldn't help but express his disbelief, saying, "Wait, don't tell me you haven't named this incredible golem yet, It's obvious that it holds a special significance since it's your very first one."Alec admitted with a sheepish smile, "Oh, I never really thought that far ahead."

  • Moving Out.

    The clash of swords and bursts of magic echoed across the battlefield as the human mages engaged in fierce combat with the advancing zombie horde, meanwhile, the high rank mages and Type 3 zombies remained in their respective positions, silently observing the battlefield below them, neither side making a move yet as if keeping each other in check.But the high rank mages weren’t the only humans watching the battle, as from atop the hill, the Gordons mages stood still, their eyes fixed on the chaotic battle unfolding barely a hundred meters ahead of them. Further in the distance, the Mid rank skirmishes raged on, their lack of movement amidst the bloodshed didn’t go unnoticed, as the high rank mages from the newer clans, unfamiliar with the Gordons’ true strength, viewed their inaction with disdain.Even the city commanders wore scornful expressions, displeased by the Gordons’ refusal to join the fight. However, they held their tongues for now, convinced that it was only a matter o

His gaze remained locked on the ever-widening gate.“Hold your groups! Take position! Prepare to vanquish the undead from our lands!” The commanding voices of various clan Tier leaders and city hall officers leading their Tiers echoed across the battlefield as they issued final instructions.While the other mages scrambled to organize themselves, the Gordons clan mages stood unwavering. They were already in position, watching with quiet amusement as the others hurried to form battle lines, it was almost ironic, as many of these mages had arrived before the Gordons, yet they still seemed unaccustomed to suc

    He knew for a fact that the Gordons no longer held the City Hall in high regard after what happened to their clan, and until the City Lord deemed it the right time to go against them, Marcus had no intention of crossing swords with such battle-hardened mage warriors. Especially not with the Blood Moon War approaching, strong allies were needed, not enemies.Besides, if he were to get injured in a confrontation with the Gordons before the war even started, he would have only himself to blame. He would be an easy target for the zombies that would soon flood the battlefield, so avoiding unnecessary conflict while maintaining his authority was his best course of action.“I’m just saying, make sure your younger ranks realize this is a war zone, not a picnic ground,” Marcus said before levitating back to his position. He felt much safer there, surrounded by Sir Alistair and the other clan mages loyal to the City Hall, just in case the Third Elder decided to escalate things further.See

While the Tier 7 Mages of the Gordons Clan seem as if they were already drawing attention to themselves, seemingly on the verge of being bombarded with questions due to their clan’s grand display.Alec on the other hand Ignored the growing curiosity of those stationed in front of him, and finally took action, leading the Gordon Mages forward, instead of stopping at the assigned post designated by City Hall for each realm, they moved past it entirely.

    Though the Patriarch and the Grand Elder wanted to ask why Alec needed the corpses, But they quickly realized he had no intention of telling them, as he simply brushed off their curiosity, claiming it was a secret.When they asked how he planned to store so many zombie corpses, Alec casually showed them a high-quality space ring, the very same one that Old Man Alderic had given him when he handed over the demonic beasts for Alec to refine into pills for the academy.The sight of such a rare and powerful space ring only left them more shocked and they realised it was more than enough.At this point, when the Patriarch looked at Alec, he no longer saw him as just a member of the younger generation. No, he saw a walking treasure trove, a golden goose shining with wealth.Just as the Patriarch was about to shamelessly pitch an investment opportunity, probably for himself the Grand Elder dragged him away before he could embarrass himself further in front of his Grandson.-Alec didn’t

    “So, what’s this surprise you have for me, old man?” Alec asked, casually gesturing with two fingers.At his signal, the mages standing before him spread out, forming a neat line, a line that led directly to where the Patriarch stood, as he was still stunned by their transformation.“We greet the Patriarch!” they all called out in unison, bowing with cupped hands toward George Gordons, who finally started walking toward Alec.Alec stood next to a large stone pillar that was all the way up to his waist line, atop which a miniature battlefield had been sculpted from earth, depicting small terrains and figures to help visualize battle formations.But as soon as his grandfather reached him, Alec swiped his hand over the stone pillar, instantly flattening it into the ground, erasing the intricate display in an instant.“Why do you look so confused? You said you had a surprise for me, so what is it?” Alec asked, his sharp gaze fixed on his grandfather, while his hands were clasped behind

    The days flew by until it was finally the day of the Blood Moon War.For the residents of Estonia City who had nothing to do with the battle, fear gripped their hearts, and they had already locked themselves inside their homes, praying that the mages fighting on the behalf of the city would return with a flawless victory.Wives wept as their husbands strapped on their weapons, preparing to join their squads. Children knelt in silent prayer, wishing for their fathers’ safe return, the entire city was drenched in sorrow, an air of inevitable loss hanging over them.Even before the battle had begun, the morale of the mages was devastatingly low, many of them were reluctant, unwilling, and yet, they still marched forward.Because they had no choice.Despite their fears, they held onto a single hope, that even if they had to lay down their lives, they would do so protecting their loved ones, as long as no zombies broke through the city gates, as long as their families survived, then th

    "Emmm... are you sure it's a good idea to let someone like Terran leave the academy grounds?" The New Dean frowned, his voice laced with concern. "You do realize that aside from the Orcs in the Second Dimension who already have a bounty on his head, he's also made enemies with the Faction?, And from the way things look, they won’t be satisfied until he’s dead."Alderic chuckled, shaking his head. "That’s exactly why we should send him out, he’s tough, and no one would be stupid enough to go after him from the Faction especially not with Mad Dog returning soon, and if they do send anyone, it’ll be disposable hunting dogs, the kind with no ties back to them."He leaned forward, his sharp gaze gleaming with confidence. "Besides, I doubt anyone they send would make it back alive, even though Terran hasn’t been given access to the Mental Training Rooms, which makes it harder for him to be able to repair his soul injuries, and hasn't made any progress in broking through to Tier 8 yet, bu
