2022-09-08 21:24:45When Alec returned home, he settled himself into a meditative position, his eagerness palpable as he prepared to test the mana circulation technique he had just learned.
The Grand Elder had emphasized the importance of accumulating mana quickly, as it would expedite their promotion to becoming tier 1 mages.[ spiral force – basic mana circulation activated lv1 ][ mini hole – basic mana circulation activated lv1 ]As Alec began utilizing the mana circulation techniques, he noticed two distinct colors swirling towards him.Curiosity getting the best of him, he couldn't resist reaching out and extending his hand towards the colors, The moment his hand made contact with the vibrant hues, a refreshing sensation washed over him.[ mana increased by 1 ][Exp increased by 1 ]A smile blossomed on Alex's face as he realized he was on the right path. However, the realization that he still had to accumulate 99 more experiences before reaching level 1 reminded him that he had only just begun his journey.He assumed that once he reached the next level, he would become a lower-tier Mage, The colors of the lights moving toward him were classified in his mind as the elemental energies he had an affinity for, as they were both red and brown in color which represents both fire and earth.Remaining in the meditative position, Alec continued to cultivate the Mana circulation technique, eagerly hoping to break through to the next level and see what would happen.If the younger generation of the Gordon's family were to hear that Alec was attempting to achieve a breakthrough in just one night, they would undoubtedly be surprised, Becoming a (Iow) Tier 1 mage in one day after coming in contact with mana was no easy feat.However, Alec was unfazed by all of this, He gradually noticed that the amount of mana he was accumulating per minute was steadily increasing, even if he wasn't fully aware of it.The power of the two basic mana techniques working together was beginning to showcase its true strength.[ Ding gain 100 exp ][ leveled up to level 2 ]Alec eagerly opened his status tab, eager to compare his new stats to what they were before.[ Status Tab]Name: Alec Gordons"Race: Human"Level: 1"Tier: 1 [Low]■ Exp till next level : 0.00%/200[ Attributes ]Strength: 7+Agility: 6+Endurance: 5+Mana: 100+Affinity: Earth (high)+, Fire(high)+available points : 7 ( bonus )System points: 0He noticed that, aside from his abnormal Mana stats due to cultivating with two techniques, all of his attributes had been significantly increased.His stats had increased by 5 attribute points, and he was also given a 2 point bonus to allocate himself, After careful consideration, he decided to invest 2 points in strength, 2 points in agility, and the remaining 3 points into Endurance.He wasn't particularly interested in using the points to boost his Mana stats; he could achieve that by successfully cultivating the mana circulation techniques he had received from his clan , After allocating the points, his new status looked like this[ Status Tab]Name: Alec GordonsRace: HumanLevel: 1Tier: 1 [low ]■ Exp till next level : 0.00%/200[ Attributes ]Strength: 9 (+2)Agility: 8 (+2)Endurance: 8 (+3)Mana: 100+Affinity: Earth (high)+, Fire(high)+Available points : 0 ( bonus )System points: 0He could feel an incredible surge of strength pulsing through his body, a sensation he had never experienced before.The sheer power coursing through his veins left him feeling invincible, as if he could effortlessly shatter a stone with his bare hands.Deep down, he couldn't help but wonder what he could have accomplished if he had possessed such strength in his previous world.Perhaps he could have become a superhero, even if his abilities didn't quite reach the level of Superman, With his newfound power, dealing with robbers would be a piece of cake.With the knowledge that the system had truly enhanced his physical capabilities, he decided it was time to create his first golem.Having reached the Tier 1 mage realm, he knew he finally had enough mana to sustain the golem's mana consumption, just like his grandfather had advised.He eagerly turned to the ancient book of techniques, passed down through generations in the Gordon family, As he delved into the text, he quickly absorbed the ideas and concepts behind crafting a basic golem.After around ten minutes of dedicated reading, he knew exactly what he wanted to create, Channeling his mana in accordance with the book's instructions, he began the process of shaping his first golem, connecting his mana with the Earth elements present in the air and guiding them downward.It was like witnessing magic in action as the elements responded, the ground itself began to react and several clumps of clay started rising, gradually forming the golem.At first, it appeared small, almost resembling a puppy, but Alec persisted, infusing more mana to gradually increase its height and strength.Even when it reached the stature of a regular human, he didn't stop. He realized that it still had the potential to absorb more mana, so he continued to shape the golem, making it more robust and muscular, just as he had envisioned.Without hesitation, he poured all his remaining mana into perfecting his creation. As he stepped back to admire his handiwork, he couldn't help but feel proud.The golem already resembled a miniature giant, its imposing figure reminiscent of Japanese sumo fighters, However, it stood taller than any of them.He kept sensing that something was missing, a gut feeling that nagged at him until it finally clicked in his head."Haha, why not give it a weapon or something? It looks so perfect now, but wouldn't it be nice to have it as a brawler with its big body? I'm sure it would have a slightly slower speed," he chuckled to himself.The idea of his magnificent golem wielding a weapon filled him with excitement, So he decided to use his remaining mana to craft a weapon that would seamlessly integrate with the golem's body.He wanted to create a weapon that would become a permanent part of the golem, He started by crafting a large shield to be placed on the golem's left hand.It was challenging at first, but he persevered and poured more mana into the creation of the shield, Gradually, it began to take shape and fit naturally onto the golem's left arm, much to Alec's delight.Encouraged by his progress, he envisioned giving the golem an attacking weapon for its right hand.He pictured a mace with numerous spikes, and to his surprise, it proved to be a much easier task than crafting the shield, In no time, the mace was complete.Exhausted from the crafting process, Alec collapsed onto his bed. As he looked at the system, he noticed a new notification, further adding to his anticipation.[congrats on learning skill ][Golem creation (Legendary)] - There is no limit to how many you can make, only your mana determines your limit.A puzzled expression crossed his face as he muttered to himself"What a weird explanation."Realizing that he had exhausted all the mana he had just accumulated, which was already abnormal for a regular Tier 1 mage attempting to create a golem, he became even more certain that his golem was special, He decided to consult his system to assess its strength.Recalling the introduction in the golem technique book he had acquired, he knew that even ordinary golems typically required only 10 mana to bring them to life.[ Earth Golem ]Level : 1 [ can be upgraded]Realm : Tier 1 (low)Rank : rareStrength : 15Agility : 6Endurance: 20[ A rare golem crafted with clumsiness but turned out to be a masterpiece one that has the potential to evolve ]Alec's eyes widened with surprise as he compared the stats of his creation to his own, The numbers indicated that this golem was far stronger than even advanced mages.Despite its drawback of being slow, the golem compensated with its large shield, ready to defend at any moment.Looking at his first golem, Alec couldn't help but smirk in satisfaction, It stood tall, bulky, and intimidating, with piercing red eyes, It was the perfect partner that Alec had envisioned in his mind.Seating himself in a meditative position, Alec focused on replenishing the mana he had used in creating his masterpiece.As he observed the golem taking a defensive stance in front of him, Alec couldn't help but feel a mix of surprise and confusion.He recalled that the golem had been classified as a rare rank, and in the golem techniques passed down by the patriarch of the Gordons family, it was mentioned that higher-ranked golems tended to possess greater intelligence.Some golems required no orders before protectively defending their Masters.In his recollection, golem ranks started from common to uncommon before reaching the rare rank.Realizing that he had just jumped two ranks to produce his first official golem left him shocked."I might just be a genius," he said to himself smugly, his confidence growing.

The next day, Alec woke up feeling incredibly refreshed, more than he had ever felt before.As he looked down, he was surprised to see himself still in a meditative position, He must have fallen asleep while practicing his double mana circulation techniques, and it seemed to have a positive effect on him.Stretching his body and letting out a big yawn, he noticed that the golem he had created the day before was still standing in a defensive position, ready to protect him from any potential danger.Alec admired the intelligence of his newly crafted golem, impressed by its ability to stay vigilant even without his command.With a nod of approval, he stood up and began making his way towards the Gordon family training ground.He had heard that all the younger generations of the family were going to be taught basic combat techniques, regardless of their interest in the Mage path they decided to follow.The Gordon clan believed in giving everyone a chance to protect themselves, especially w

After dismissing the other kids to continue their training, only Arthur remained by Alec's side. 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." As he stared at the towering golem, he pondered what to call it.Suddenly, with a bright look on his face, Alec turned to Arthur and exclaimed, "What about 'fatty'?"Arthur's expression clearly reflected his confusion as if to say, "What on earth is wrong with your sense of naming?"Trying to offer an alternative, Arthur suggested,"How about 'Titan'?

Two weeks had passed since Alec's grandfather discovered his mage abilities, He was now hailed as the prodigy of the Gordon family, surpassing the other dual element kids who had taken a whole week to reach Tier 1 mage status. The younger generation of the family was showing promise, with numerous young mages emerging.While some of the new mages grew complacent, taking a break from their training, Alec remained diligent. Not a single day went by where he did not dedicate himself to his combat training during the day and honing his golem-making skills at night. To acknowledge his achievements, his grandfather bestowed upon him a space pouch as a gift, though Alec suspected it was just another indulgence from the old man.Alec's hard work and dedication during training paid off handsomely, His basic combat skills soared to level five, a remarkable accomplishment in such a short span of time.[Basic combat skills -lvl 5( 45/500)]He also improved his golem creation skill and was now a

"Move to the south gate quickly," the Patriarch instructed as the clan members closed in on the central gate.The Gordons Clan members made a slight turn and hurried over, even Alec was surprised to see his grandfather waiting there for them.Up until now, Alec hadn't realized that he wasn't the one leading the charge when they left the family compound. But now, as he calmed down and thought about it, he realized that the old man must have been in a meeting with the City Lord and other powerful family leaders in the city, And It seems they must have agreed upon having the Gordon family protecting the weaker South gate.The Gordon family members arrived at the gate swiftly, climbing up and spreading around the walls to cover any gaps, ensuring that the zombies wouldn't exploit any openings.They allowed the younger generation of the Gordon family to stay behind, watching their backs as they fought off the zombies.The patriarch levitated in the air, observing, as some of the higher-r

After witnessing the impressive display of strength by Titan, he saw him move swiftly to retrieve his trusted weapon - a spiky mace that seemingly materialized from the very earth itself.It appeared to be far sturdier than any steel weapons employed by the Gordins family, indicating that Alec had taken great care in imbuing it with an abundance of mana during its creation.This, coupled with the equally formidable shield he had fashioned, made them the ultimate tools for warfare.It was no wonder the mace effortlessly decimated the zombie's head, Pleased with his handiwork, Alec nodded approvingly, his gaze fixed once again on the magnificent weapon.[ wrath spike mace ]Weapon lvl : 5( upgrade golem rank to upgrade)+9 strength+5 speed+1 enduranceA sudden realization dawned on him - he possessed the ability to enhance Titan's mace with his own mana.It was an extraordinary feat, one that seemed exclusive to him, as he had never witnessed anyone else perform such a task.If others

He immediately face-palmed himself for asking such an obvious question, After all, Titan was a golem who could wield anything Alec asked him to.To his surprise, Titan nodded in resp

Finally, he understood how they could awaken their mastery of weapons, All it took was continuous usage of the weapon in battle, eventually leading to the awakening of the weapon mastery.In the case of Spearmanship, Alec attributed their quick progress to the fact that many golems were already using it. This gave them an advantage over Titan, who had previously used a different weapon, However, this didn't matter much since Titan had already learned the skill. As long as he continued using his mace, he would keep improving himself.Alec decided to test his theory, With a mana pool of around 40 points, he created two new spears and focused on improving their strength and agility. As he prepared to upgrade the level of the spears, Arthur approached him, a

Alec became so engrossed in the fight that he found himself edging closer to the front line, disregarding the protective barrier his golems had established. His countenance transformed into that of a battle-crazed warrior, although every strike he made was calculated and precise. As his spear skills grew more fluid with each use, Alec realized that relying on the system to upload the skills into his mind wasn't enough to become truly skilled—it required practice and experience."Ah, kill!" Alec shouted, charging towards the zombies with his spear instead of waiting for them to come within piercing range. Swinging, slashing, and even using the bottom of the spear to push back the encroaching undead, creating enough space to strike them down. Even Titan joined the massacre, as Agnes rallied the younger members of the clan to participate in the fight."We can't let Alec claim all the glory!, Let's all kill a few zombies!" Agnes said, aiming to bolster the morale of the younger gener

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
At Last It Begins Again.
The space gate, which had been collecting mana in a dormant state, finally began to activate, as its swirling energy expanded, the attention of the gathered mages shifted away from the Gordons, after all, they had more pressing matters to focus on than the Gordons’ peculiar positioning.“So, it begins again,” Steven murmured, hidden among the Tier 4 Mages of the City Guardians. 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
The Lanzt Plan Cancelled?.
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
Don't Want No Trouble But Ain't Scared Of One.
As soon as the city gates shut behind them, the Third and Fourth Elders felt their role had been fulfilled, and they wasted no time lingering beside Alec anymore, swiftly flying up to join the rest of the Tier 7 Mages in the air.However, they kept their distance from the other mages, choosing to stand side by side and only offering brief nods in response to greetings directed towards them. 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. Alec didn’t want them near the other force, he had the mage army under him march a full 150 meters away from the battlefield’s standard formation
The Proper Way To Flaunt.
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
Superior Display.
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
