The Golem Mage The Abyss Realm 5.
Just as James feared for his life and believed all hope was lost, he witnessed a chilling sight, The face of the Orc sub captain twisted in agony as a crimson claw emerged from his chest, clutching his beating heart.The scene sent shivers down James' spine, leaving him astounded by the incredible power that could swiftly bring down such a formidable orc adversary. He had been engaged in a desperate struggle against this orc for several minutes, yet every attempt to gain an upper hand had failed.With a resounding thud, the lifeless body of the Orc sub captain crumpled to the ground, the impact reverberating through the chaos and awakening all who were caught in the midst of it.As James locked eyes with the individual responsible for this display of strength, mere surprise felt insufficient to describe the overwhelming mix of emotions coursing through him."Are you simply going to stare at me, or will you rise and lend a hand?" Alec's voice broke through James' dazed state, and he

"You would have to ask us about that first!" Arthur said, a wild grin on his lips as he quickly regained his footing after the failed attack and dashed straight for the Orc Shaman. Along the way, he had already condensed a golden colored blade and sent it flying towards the Shaman, who raised his staff and deflected the metal sword. The shaman was surprised to see that the sword didn't disappear but instead flew into the air a deviation from his knowledge concerning spells.The Shaman's senses were telling him that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite understand where the problem had escalated from. He had become too focused on Arthur and his spell, momentarily forgetting that he was not only fighting against Arthur but the whole group. Knight emerged from the shadows and attempted to stab the shaman's neck with his twin dagger."Gravity x5," the shaman whispered fast in an ancient orckish language , lightly tapping his staff on the ground.In an instant, Knight's lightnin

The Shaman was taken aback to discover that the knight's spell had rendered him completely restrained, unable to move a muscle."Does that feel familiar to you?, Yeah, that's revenge for back then," the knight breathed heavily while speaking, He realized that trapping a Tier 3 lifeform wasn't as easy as he had made it seem during his speech.However, the Shaman wasn't worried about that, His concern still lay with Agnes, who had finally finished casting the spell that has been hindering her from participating fully in the fight.[] The moment the Earth spear hurtled towards him, the shaman felt every organ in his body scream danger, yet he remained frozen, unable to move a single muscle. " AHH!!!" The earth spear, spinning rapidly due to the water snake wrapped around it, found its mark and pierced the orc shaman's heart, killing him swiftly.As the shaman's life was swiftly and cleanly taken, Knight released a heavy sigh and collapsed

" Hmm, it seems I'm having a hard time recalling any offense I may have committed against you before." " You hardly know anything about me, let alone have the right to speak ill of the academy," Terran retorted, anger flaring within him, However, before their tempers could escalate any further, someone quickly stepped in between them, preventing a physical confrontation."Now, now! There's no need for unnecessary violence here!" Instructor Walter exclaimed, appearing mysteriously in their midst, He placed his hands on both men's chests to symbolize his attempt to diffuse the situation and keep them from tearing each other apart."I must inform you that he is none other than the renowned 'Son of the Earth',"Walter divulged to the middle-aged Mage who had expressed resentment towards the Academy for sending only a Tier 7 Mage."Hmm, and who might that be?" the middle-aged Mage inquired."We gladly welcome the esteemed high-ranking Mage, Terran, It is an honor to have the most talent

Alec and his crew were able to extract not just a Tier 3 power stone from the Orc shaman's corpse, but there was also another attributed stone that they couldn't identify. When the members of the Wild adventurer group saw this unknown attributed stone, their faces twisted with greed.It was as if they were struggling to restrain themselves from leaping at Kelvin and snatching the stone away from his grasp. "Hey, pass it over here!" Alec said to Kelvin, who had skillfully carved out the stones from the heart of the Orc shaman. This made the greed of the Wild group adventurers subside, albeit begrudgingly.Although they were aware that the academy was interested in attributed stones, even those they didn't have affinity for, they knew the academy's scions were willing to pay a fortune to obtain stones like this. However, when they realized who was holding the stones, they understood that their very lives might be at risk if they acted on their greed.[ Ding!][ Detected a gravity s

The day came to a end with two dark red moons illuminating the sky, Alec's group had just successfully escaped from the dense Orkish forest that had held them captive."We should set up a small fortress here and rest for the night, Tomorrow, we'll continue our journey, and once you all reach the destination our great instructor wanted us to reach, we'll go our separate ways," James suggested, as He walked away to set up his own tent and help his team members transform their chosen spot into a makeshift fortress.Alec's group wasted no time and worked together to quickly prepare their tents, they had gotten some from that old short man at the counter who made sure Igor paid for them."Guys, I've never seen you look so worn out before in my entire life, Are you sure you don't want to take off those bracers?" Arthur whispered , concerned, as he looked at Alec lying on the ground, patiently waiting for his tent to be assembled so he could finally rest."Hell no!, If I take them off now,

It was already night time, and everyone was expected to be asleep except for those on lookout duty.However, a part of the Wild Adventurer Group, now led by Kethra, was closing in on the area where the Gordons clan had set up their tents."I can't hear any sounds coming from their tents, They should be sound asleep now, If we want to attack, we should do it now," one of the High Tier 3 Mages supporting Kethra said, He was someone who was very sensitive to sound, and he had been trying to listen for any signs of movement from the tent. When he couldn't hear anything, he felt confident that they were asleep."Hehehe, these newbies, Hopping around the Abyss without knowing the golden rule of the wilderness, which is always watching out for sneak attacks, What do you say we teach them how cruel the wilderness can be?" Kethra said with a sinister laugh.All the mages around him began casting their strongest spells, including Kethra. "Blast them to pieces!" he commanded.Various spells f

*** Before the attack ***Alec approached his group, discreetly tapping them on the shoulders as if offering a friendly greeting.Despite his cheerful demeanor, his true intentions remained well-hidden.Having been together for a long time, the Gordons clan's group was well-versed in recognizing different signs.They swiftly set up their large tent, positioning it to face each other as if preparing for an important gathering.Opting to stay separate from the Wild adventurer group and their bonfire, they gradually filtered into Alec's tent.Once everyone had assembled, Alec cleared his throat and began silently mouthing his words, careful not to make a sound.Thankfully, the group managed to decipher Alec's intended message.Some of them even engaged in unrelated conversations to divert any suspicion."I apologize for the circumstances, but it seems we may be facing an attack tonight, I already have a plan in place, but going forward, we must avoid discussing important information open

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

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
