2022-09-14 17:09:00The 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 with the top academy recruitment approaching.Noticing the golem following him without any instruction, Alec turned back and said"Wait for me here."To his surprise, the golem actually obeyed and stayed in place.Smirking at this detail, he gestured for it to follow him, and continued on his way to the training ground.As Alec and his golem passed they attracted attention from everyone they passed, people couldn't help but be amazed.Seeing Alec with a golem by his side was surprising enough, but the constant release of aura from his body, indicating his recent breakthrough to becoming a tier 1 mage, and this left people in awe."Isn't that the grandson of the patriarch?""Yes, it is. It seems he has finally been promoted to the tier 1 mage realm.""What were you expecting?, Becoming the family heir is no easy task.""Absolutely, Our young master is a true genius."Various comments and discussion erupted as others talked about Alec's excellence.Despite having been scorned in the past, being seen as illegitimate by many, Alec knew that strength was what truly mattered.His two high affinities and being the first among the younger generations to break through to the tier 1 mage realm only served to highlight his remarkable talents even more.As Alec entered the training hall, he noticed that many Gordon family members had already begun their training.He blamed himself for meditating so late, resulting in him waking up later than usual.However, he wasn't bothered by it, Even if the situation were to repeat itself, he would still choose to prioritize training over sleep.His excitement and thirst to learn more about mana had led him to meditate overnight and conduct numerous experiments with golems.The exhaustion from depleting his mana only to start meditating again was the reason he had fallen asleep in a meditative position.Alec had been an amateur in golem-making just last night, but now after a lot of trials and error he could be said to have progressed to the level of a beginner golem master.As he entered the training ground, all eyes turned to him, wide with surprise and disbelief at the aura he was emitting.The sheer amount of energy waves he was releasing made it evident to everyone present that he had become a tier 1 mage.And with the golem standing behind him, exuding the same aura, it only solidified their belief that he had truly entered the realm of mages.It was common knowledge that one could not maintain a summoned golem for long without a tier 1 mage's mana pool.This display of power further cemented Alec's newfound status."How did he become a tier 1 mage overnight?!" exclaimed one onlooker."See? Only the strongest among the younger generations can be the leader," remarked another."I knew it. The moment he was chosen, I could tell he was special," added someone else."I feel like that golem could crush me, It looks much sturdier than the golem a first-timer should be able to craft " one of the children from the younger generation voiced their thoughts.Even Arthur, who had initially claimed that he would protect Alec before he could obtain a powerful golem, was taken aback when he saw the golem standing behind Alec.He laughed at his past self for underestimating Alec's abilities, looking at Alec's golem, he was certain that he wouldn't stand a chance against that massive mound of clay.Even the golem's intimidating red eyes sent shivers down Arthur's spine.Arthur walked up to Alec and placed a hand on his shoulder and The golem raised it's mace in a threatening position, ready to strike at any moment.But Alec simply waved his hand, and the golem seemed to understand his intentions, It lowered its mace back down.Arthur's lips trembled and he felt cold shivers running down his neck, all this was a testament to the fear he felt when the bulky yet sturdy golem raised its hand.He felt helpless against the impending strike, even before the strike was made."Wow, you've gotten much stronger, brother.You have to take care of me in the future," Arthur mumbled, while comically clinging onto Alec's legs.The golem scratched its head, finding Arthur's behavior rather peculiar, despite its intelligence.Meanwhile, the seven enforcers from the Gordon family, responsible for combat training, were astounded by Alec's first golem."Hmm, I believe that golem is of uncommon rank, What a genuis!, To be able to craft an uncommon rank golem so fast, this boy must be a golem genius,"one of the elders remarked to himself, unaware of his mistake, if he had known that it was the same rank as the patriarch's boss golems.he might have referred to Alec as a monster rather than a genius.The entire younger generation gathered around Alec, accepting him as one of their own.They bombarded him with questions about cultivation, recognizing his knowledge and expertise.Inside, Alec grinned, knowing that this was what his grandfather had always wanted for him – to connect with the younger generations at an early stage.After all, if he was going to lead them in the future, it was better to establish a friendship now while they were still young.Alec did his best to answer every question thrown at him, despite considering himself a novice in cultivation.

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

[Ding!][2 EXP gained from defeating the level 0 zombie][Learned Basic Spear Techniques]Alec's panel displayed a series of notifications as the golems grew more adept at killing zombies with their stone spears. It was clear that the introduction of the basic spearmanship skill had greatly improved their abilities.[Basic Spearmanship Level 1]✦ Enhances your ability to wield the spear with speed and strength, increasing the likelihood of delivering a fatal strike, It also accelerates your understanding of spear techniques, depending on the skill level."Ohhh, so that's what's been helping them, I can't help but think they've become as skilled as ancient Chinese spearman soldiers" Alec remarked, a sense of awe in his voice.Curiously, Alec turned to Titan and asked, "Can you use a spear like them too?" 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

[Basic spearmanship leveled up][Basic spearmanship lvl 3][Mace mastery learnt lvl 1]After seeing the series of messages on his screen, Alec felt a surge of happiness, and he saw Titan blasting the head of the Tier 1 zombie away. 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
The Golem Mage Gordons Talent To The Rescue.
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

Before they left, Alec finally noticed some notifications on the screen that he had previously ignored due to being engrossed in a heated battle. However, now that he was no longer clashing with zombies, he had more time to properly examine them.

The system seemed determined to throw him into the jaws of death once again, It was like asking a (low) Tier 1 mage to take down a (mid) Tier 1 mage , a task deemed almost impossible.And to make matters worse, the system was demanding that he eliminate a hundred Tier 2 lifeform while still being in Tier 1 mage realm . It was a daunting challenge, to say the least.Although Alec felt the weight of the mission press upon him, he

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
Meeting.
"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
