King Of Magical Golems

Alex reached his dorm room. His mind was still lingering on the title of the book the librarian lady was reading.

'She must have just read it for time pass.... right?' Just when he was thinking about it Ron ran into the room yelling at Alex.

"Hey, what happened to you? did you lose it too?" Alex was confused.

"What the hell are you talking about? What could I lose?" Alex caught Ron's shoulder and asked.

"Oh, you are alright? Tch, wasted my time and breath!" Ron muttered with dissatisfaction. Alex's face began to turn black. Seeing his friend is becoming angry Ron quickly changed his attitude again.

"I mean, thank heavens you are alright. I thought you were finished this time when you got caught by that tigress." Ron's made an eased expression.

"Tigress? Who?" Alex was confused or he knew who Ron was talking about, he just didn't want to believe it.

"Of course its Elder Diana I'm talking about. Who else could it be? Most people are afraid to go near the library if they have to go they will definitely avoid Elder Diana and only approach the library assistants. But you had the guts to go directly into her mouth. I really envy your luck. To think you escaped from such a dangerous situation." Ron tapped on Alex's shoulders and said.

'There is no way, right? I don't think she was dangerous at all.' But then Alex remembered the book she was reading. 'hmmm... Maybe just to be safe let's avoid next time... Wait, 'Elder' Diana?'

"Did you just said she was an Elder?" Alex only noticed such an important thing. He never knew she was an Elder at all.

"Yeah, you don't even know that? How ignorant can you get? If you believed ignorance is bliss, let me tell you. That is just bullshit. You are gonna need a lot of knowledge in this era to pick up any girl. If you had any doubts you could have just asked me. After all, you are my best friend." Ron began his tutoring section. Alex just ignored him. But Alex didn't know that when they were fooling around a storm was approaching Asher Empire.

Inside an inn at Asher Empire.

A man wearing white hoods took a seat near a lady who was eating food. The woman was wearing a white shirt with gold stripes on her shoulders.

"Ruban, what's the new important thing you have that had me give up on my mission. You even activated the holy seal to call me here." The lady asked without even looking at the man's face.

"It's not me who called you back. It was your holiness himself." The man took off his hood and revealed his face. It was a middle-aged man, and of course one of the apostles who received Supreme Pontiff's order. "The Sacred Root has awakened."

Hearing it the woman was frozen. It was like a sudden thunderclap. She stopped eating and looked at Ruban.

"Ruban, are you saying Sacred Root of the Divine Race was awakened inside the Asher Empire?" The woman asked carefully looking around.

"Nora... We have to get the possessor of the Sacred Root before anyone. You know the consequence of anyone finds the possessor before us, right?" Ruban said with a serious face.

"Mmm. What about the others?" Nora asked.

"We have already gathered in the Lagoon Kingdom. Since this mission is top secret we decided to split up. The leader and with the other three will be personally searching inside the Asher Empire while I am responsible for searching in the Ruins Kingdom. You are to go to the Azure Kingdom. Here, keep this." Saying that he took out a crystal ball from thin air, of course, it was not air but his Space Storage device.

"What is this?" Nora took the ball from his hands and took a closer look.

"It's a crystal that can detect Divine Origin, which the Sacred Root has. As long the possessor is 50 miles from this crystal it will start to glow. You can also see the direction from the glowing side of the crystal. If you found the possessor no need to immediately make a move. Your Holiness has said someone powerful was with the possessor. So your first action will be alerting us. Alright?" Ruban asked. He knows Nora was very reckless.

"Hmph, no need to remind me. I know the seriousness of this mission." Nora said annoyed.

Since his job was over he left without saying a word while Nora continued to eat he food as nothing happened.

••••••••••

The Capital City of Asher Empire. Inside the Palace.

There were a middle-aged man and an old man playing chess.

"Hohoho, looks like you still got some skill." The old man said. Hearing it the middle-aged man just smiled.

"Well, no matter how skilled I am, I'm still no match for you in chess." He knows he will lose the game no matter what move he made. Still, he played his turn.

"Hohoho, you still have that spirit. Fighting till the end. Well,..... Check and Checkmate" The old man made his final move to finish the game. He didn't touch the piece, it moved on its own. The old man was controlling the piece with his energy.

"So, I don't think uncle Silas came all this way to beat me in a chess game, right?" The middle-aged man calmly asked.

"Hahaha, of course not. I just wanted to notify you that the chess pieces have begun to move. Soon the war will begin. So get ready." The old man was impressively Alex's master Elder Silas and the middle-aged man was the Emperor of the Asher Empire, Emperor Louis Asher.

"Is this related to the recent meeting of Apostles near my Empire?" The Emperor asked.

"Oh! They are very fast. Hmm, they are definitely here for that alright. Because the Sacred Root of the Divine Race has awakened." When Elder Silas said that even the calm Emperor couldn't keep his composure.

"What, that will be a disaster for us. Once the war began we will be the first one to be destroyed. We will have to find whoever awakened it and destroy whoever it is..." The Emperor lost his cool when he heard the shocking news. He immediately wanted to order his soldiers to move and destroy whoever awakened the Sacred Root

"Calm down, there is no need for that. If that was the case I would have destroyed her on the second I realized it. Although when I realized it was the sacred root I was too late to stop the awakening. Now I don't have a choice but to protect her." Elder Silas kept his calmness and said. He only realized that Alex's sister awakened Sacred Root instead of bloodline awakening when he was leaving Alex's home. He never considered the Sacred Root being awakened on a human with no Divine blood. That 's why he didn't recognize the Sacred Root.

"Wait, uncle is saying that the Sacred Root awakened in front of you and now you have to protect 'her'? Elder Silas just nodded to the Emperor's question. "Why?"

"Because she happens to be my hard-earned disciple's sister!"
