In a lavishly decorated room, the City Lord of Estonia sat in his chair, accompanied by three Mage formerly known as the three City Guardians of Estonia, they stood silently, awaiting his words.

Among them was his own child, now poised for promotion to City Commander, having ascended to the rank of a High Rank Mage.

The resources the City Lord had secured from giving the patriarch of the Fridall clan to the Ancient Blaze Clan instead of the Royal Palace had not only helped promote the realm of the mages in the newly forged alliances against the Gordons clan but also elevated his son to the high ranks.

Despite his efforts to support the other two City Guardians, only one had reached the high rank realm and was also due for promotion to City Commander.

This mage, named Marcus, was often referred to as Sir Marcus and had consistently followed Alistair, the City Lord's son.

Fortunately for both, they had attained high rank status, the third guardian, Rio, a stout man who wielded great

    Alec shuffled through the forest, determined to reach the source of the noise, he had sent his golems out to scout the area, and they returned with a list of demonic beasts nearby. After careful consideration, he decided to hunt five Peak Tier 5 demonic beasts.So far, his strategy of letting his golems take the lead had proven effective; as they had successfully hunted three of those beasts without any issues. The only challenge now lay with the final two, a duo that worked well together, a Golden Armored Rhino and a Jungle King Boar. Alec carefully navigated the forest, wanting to observe how the battle would unfold. He had spread out some of his golems to either scout ahead or secure the perimeter to make sure no other beast breached in, and he is confident they would meet up with him shortly, as he had sent them all a mental transmission to return.The golems currently facing the two Peak Tier 5 beasts were Titan, Legion, Hunter, and Tempest Butcher. With a boost of speed, Al

    The hook flew at incredible speed, cracking open a small hole in the dome shield the Rhino had erected without any resistance.Clang! The hook lodged itself on the Rhino’s front horn, and upon this impact, Hunter jerked his hand down, letting the rest of the chains connected to his hooked hand drop to the ground.Once he had completed this action, he started to run sideways, putting Legion back in front view of the Rhino. Though the Rhino was angry and aimed to pursue him, but it redirected its target to Legion, who was still advancing toward it.From his elevated position, Alec observed the Rhino causing a stampede as it charged closer. Just as it was about to slam Legion into the air, the hook that had hooked his horn finally tugged. Causing Alec to turn his gaze toward Hunter, only to realize he had maneuvered around one of the trees around, causing the chain to wrap around the tree’s body for pulling support. With this strategic move, Hunter gained confidence as he pulled

    Almost instantly, as Legion eliminated the Rhino demonic beast, Alec heard the system notification and assumed it must have been triggered by Legion’s action. However, he soon felt a cold chill creeping over him, which caused him to look down at the tree he was perched on; and he noticed that the ground beneath it was lightly covered in frost.“No way, this can’t still be about Legion,” Alec muttered as he turned his gaze toward the second battlefield, which they had all overlooked while watching Legion. While doing this, Alec pulled up his system notifications to check what had prompted the alert.[> Titan’s Ice Manipulation has finally completed its evolution.] [> Ice Manipulation has now changed to Ice Manipulation I.] [> The first stage of Ice Manipulation ability will soon be awakened.] [> Pay 250,000 system points for the first stage awakening (Y/N)?] Seeing this option left Alec quite perplexed, but he didn’t hesitate to select “Y” for yes. He was perplexed because wa

    The system spirit materialized before Alec, appearing with its golem body as it has forced its way out from Alec’s space pouch. Ignoring the questioning look on Alec’s face, it focused intently on the icy blue light shooting into the skies.“What the hell? Why are you allowing a golem to undergo a breakthrough inside the Beast Forest?” the system spirit demanded.“How was I supposed to know my golem would level up so soon?” Alec shot back, spreading his hands wide in frustration.“You’re in big trouble,” the system spirit replied, dramatically slapping its golem head with a hand, making Alec scrunch up his face at the gesture.“Can you just explain what the real problem is?” Alec shouted at the system spirit, who trembled at Alec’s outburst.“Let me make it simple for you, normally, if Titan were having a regular breakthrough, it wouldn’t cause much of a reaction. You’d just see a flash of light, and that would be it, no big flashy display and no magical energy would be sent out wid

    This time, Butcher was in charge of leading the melee golems. As the first wave of demonic beasts charged at him, he began to spin his lightning axe at a rapid speed, sending those rushing toward him sprawling backward.Thanks to the force generated by his whirling axe, he created a type of lightning repulsion, leaving most of the demonic beasts who were knocked back numb and paralyzed for a few seconds. Meanwhile, all it did for Butcher was push him back a few steps, with a little strain on his shoulder joints. “How the hell did Titan always manage to hold off the waves of beasts without being pushed back? It’s hard to fill his shoes; we really need his expertise in situations like this,” Butcher grumbled after clashing with multiple Tier 4 demonic beasts.He reflected on every time he fought alongside Titan as he led the charge, recalling that it took an exceptional beast of the same realm or a miracle to force Titan to move back. But as he sank deeper into his thoughts, Alec o

    One of the peak Tier 5 ice elemental beasts that had appeared was an Arctic bear, roaring from a distance as it came with its minions. With its thunderous roar, the Arctic bears beneath it began dashing forward, compelling Alec to finally make a move since most of his golems were still occupied. [> Mid Tier Spell – Sand Tsunami <] After a few hand signs, Alec cast the spell, sweeping his right hand forward to summon a massive wave of sand toward the charging white-furred bears, which seemed intent on breaking through the defensive line established by his golems. There were five of the bears, all at the Tier 5 realm, three at mid-level and the other two at low-level.As Alec sent forth a raging sand tsunami at its minions, the peak Tier 5 arctic bear at the back snorted, wearing a smug expression that infuriated Alec. He watched as the ice bear inhaled deeply before exhaling a frigid breath toward the swirling sands that were crushing the demonic beasts in their path.Upon clashin

    While Alec was busy with his own affairs, the rest of the team was preoccupied with theirs, still in disbelief that they had made it to the finals of the Inter-Academy Competition.One person particularly taken aback was Beatrice. The journey had been a rollercoaster ride for her, and now she found herself taking a stroll outside their living quarters, wandering through the open area behind their new home.A small noise caught her attention, and as she turned to its source she realized it was on the other side, so she peered over the fence into the quarters occupied by another team. There, she saw the captain of Onyx Academy, seated cross-legged and deep in cultivation, while his elder sister Morgana sat around, keeping watch as he tried to heal his internal wounds.Noticing that Dorian was merely healing his wounds, Beatrice decided to divert her gaze, only to hear the same sound again, this time louder. It was clear that she wasn’t the only one who heard it; even Morgana, who had

    “I hope you know that Dorian is only the representative heir of the Voss family, if you truly want the clan to take you seriously, you’ll need to defeat all four representatives of the next generation,” Morgana said as she finally took her battle stance.“Well, I believe that as long as I’ve dealt with the favoured representative, the rest won’t pose much of a problem for me,” Maria declared as she finally made her move, swinging her blade toward Morgana.Causing dark slashes to fly toward Morgana, who skillfully parried them away before kicking off the ground to close the distance between them. “Just one important question, though, you claim you’ve come to challenge my brother, yet here you are fighting me. Not only that, but you’re extremely weak.” “ If I feel this way, Dorian would feel it too and in a normal match he would be able to decimate you in mere seconds,” Maria said, trying to maintain a conversation with Morgana as if they weren’t trying to kill each other.“You see,

    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

    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

    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

    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
