Spending My Retirement In A Game Chapter 327
Advertisement
Eisen stared up at the Giant version of himself as it was sitting in front of him, just grinning down at him while showing his white teeth. And then, all of a sudden, Eisen's whole body shook as the Giant spoke.
"Seems like you have started to remember me, haven't you?" The Giant asked while keeping his grin up the whole time, and Eisen stepped forward with a deep frown. "What are you?" He asked in a loud voice, but the Giant just chuckled in response.
"Should have expected you to ask that. It is quite simple. I am you. Or rather, I was you, and you will become me." Confused, Eisen listened to the Giant's words, before the latter simply crossed his arms, while the former tried to figure out what it was talking about.
"What do you mean? What's going on here?" Eisen asked, but the Giant's eyes simply slowly moved to the side with a deep sigh. "I mean exactly what I say, and it should be rather obvious what's going on. You're remembering who you used to be, but 'he' is fighting against us doing so." He explained, but Eisen just stared back up at the Giant's eyes, before the Giant sighed loudly.
"I can't show you yet, you are still to far away for that. I don't know how to explain it, but-" The Giant began, but then immediately stopped speaking, now looking at Eisen with a deep frown.
"There isn't much time left. I need you to remember one thing. Out of this conversation, I need you to take a single word with you." Leaning forward, the Giant seemed to prepare to say whatever word it was that was so important. "Grardour."
That one word reverberated throughout Eisen's mind, as if it engraved itself into his brain, before the old man suddenly found himself back inside of the meeting room, with the strongest backlash so far. It was as if Eisen's whole body was limp for a few moments, each second feeling like a thousand years just passed, during which Eisen could only think of that one word which the Giant version of himself had told him while his sight span around itself in numerous ways at once, before Eisen returned back to normal as if someone slammed a full-speed car into a wall.
It took a few moments for Eisen to collect himself, but soon enough, he felt normal as if nothing happened. And in his mind, nothing did happen.
"Hmm, I didn't have that weird dream again, but that still felt super weird just now..." Eisen muttered to himself as he slowly stood up while letting his monsters off of him and then exited through the door before turning toward Sigurd.
"Could you make your way into the dungeon again and let the five masonry kobolds know to continue working on the maze? I'm sure you'll be able to do that all yourself at this point, but it might save us a little bit of DP in the long run, right?" Eisen asked with a smile, and Sigurd nodded its head with a similar expression.

"Yes, will do." Sigurd replied before disappearing into a light mist as she 'Teleported' herself into Fafnir's body into the space of the Dungeon, while Eisen made his way toward his workshop, grabbing not only the hand he already constructed there, but also the different Spinnerets as well as a lot of steel, as much as he may need.
And the latter of those things were done rather simply, as Eisen just told Fafnir to open the gate inside of the storage area, and then Eisen brought the large amount of steel that they had into the area where he and his students would be working later today, together with the materials that were needed for today's lessons, which were made up of Leatherworking and Enchanting, and maybe Glassblowing if there was the time.
As for what Eisen would be doing all day, that should be rather obvious. For one, he would call everyone that he wanted to make special items for into the dungeons and create material-infusion parts from their elements. But as it would take a good amount of time for those materials to be done, Eisen would spend the rest of the time working on the three golems, starting with the 'Tank' golem, who Eisen already created the hand for.
After Eisen placed all the needed materials into the dungeon, he brought Fafnir back up into the Meeting Room and had him create the gate there instead, before Eisen stepped back into the dungeon and grabbed his staff from his Soul Storage, swiftly creating the workstations that would be needed for Leatherworking, before setting them up properly to hop right into the lessons once the others came.
And while Eisen was waiting, he figured he could get started on the next parts already, which he then quite swiftly just did, first throwing the steel for the second hand into the forge. In the same manner as yesterday, Eisen then created the different parts for the hand, all in a shape that made it seem as if they were from a gauntlet.
And then, Eisen created the larger parts. The arms, the legs, the feet, and then the parts for the chest, although the old man wanted to save the head for later, simply because it also had a lot of smaller parts as well as very intricate mana-crystal structures.
Of course, Eisen also made all of the joints as well as some smaller 'Covers' that would be added to help with the 'Armor' feel of the Golem's body, and then, Eisen sat down with the torso in front of him.
As was planned, the torso was incredibly large, but also made in a way to make sure the Golem would be able to move properly by using multiple pieces to make up the whole upper body.
The first thing that Eisen did was to work on the rather simple 'Storage Module' inside of this Golem's back, which was finished quickly by just adding a small hatch in front of the open space that the old man added while making the piece.
And after finishing that storage module in the lower back, Eisen worked on what needed to be placed into the chest of the Golem.

First, he placed the Mana-Batteries inside and hooked them up to the soul batteries that came afterward, and then even already placed the Earth-Mana-Batteries into the chest as well for when Eisen managed to get his hand on a way to create this element.
Then, Eisen closed the chest down again from the back, and then started to work on the place where the Golem Core would be placed later.
It seemed to be a rather risky move to place it into the center of the chest, but Eisen didn't really care. That was part of Evalia's design, and considering the way that it would look, Eisen had to qualms about doing so.
And it wasn't like the Golem Core wouldn't be protecited at all, considering that Eisen would place some other pieces around it to make sure it couldn't be broken that easily, so there really wasn't anything major to worry about anyway.
"Alright... Now, let's get to the enchanting, shall we?" Eisen said with a grin on his face, grabbing the first steel-marble belonging to the left hand, starting to enchant its inside with the help of transmutation.
---
About an hour later, Eisen was in the middle of teaching his students a bit more about leatherworking, while at the same time transmuting the 3D enchantment into the center of the right elbow's joint, before Stahl just couldn't take it anymore.
"Holy mother of- Grandpa, what the hell are you doing with those things all the time?" He asked loudly, feeling a little annoyed and unable to pay proper attention while watching his grandfather play around with those metal balls the whole time, and Eisen looked at Stahl rather surprised.
"Oh? I'm enchanting..." Eisen explained, and Stahl sighed loudly in response. "What do you mean, enchanting is to carve something into a surface, right? But what are you doing with those balls all the time, it makes me really damn curious!" He exclaimed, and Eisen replied with a light chuckle, before shaking his hand and grabbing the right hand of the Tank Golem from behind him, before throwing it to his grandson.
Eisen noticed that not only he, but his three apprentices were feeling quite curious and somehow even nervous at not know what the old man was doing the whole time. Confused, Stahl looked at the metal hand and tilted his head to the side.
"Erm... A Gauntlet? What does this have to... Wait, no, this is solid metal, right?" Stahl asked confused as he inspected the whole hand from every perspective, before noticing the small metal marbles.
"Yes, that's the hand of a Golem I'm working on. The metal balls are unfinished three-dimensional enchantments that I'm using as the joints." Eisen explained, and Stahl raised his head surprised.
"Wait, you're also working on this kind of Golem?" He asked, but Eisen just raised his eyebrows in response. "Also? Is that project you don't want to tell me about a golem?" The old man inquired, but Stahl just scratched the back of his neck before throwing the metal hand back to his grandfather.
"Not telling. But sorry, until now it was kind of obvious what you were working on, but you were just fiddling around with the metal balls all the time... Erm, but how do you do 3D enchantments?" Stahl asked with a wry smile, but Eisen just chuckled and shook his head.
"Not telling." Eisen winked, and placed the hand back down onto his table before turning back to his students. "You're learning enchanting later, I'll tell you then. But for now, let's finish the Leatherworking, shall we? And sorry, if it distracts you all, I'll work on the joints later." Eisen said apologetically, and continued the Leatherworking lesson like normal.
And while the four of them were working on some bags, Eisen then did what he said he would, continue working on the joints. It wasn't like the enchantments were complicated, it just took some time to properly shape the steel in an even way even with transmutation. It was rather easy with mana crystals or other similar structures, but it still took quite a while and was rather tough to do when it came to other materials like metals, especially hard ones like steel.
But even then, it was just a matter of time until Eisen managed to finish all of the inner parts of the joints and then swiftly began to carve all of the runes on the outside of the small marbles and spheres to finish everything off, before testing out by setting everything roughly together and just pouring his mana into each and every joint.
The metal made a loud sound as it snapped together everywhere, and Eisen was more than happy to see that the mountain of steel that he prepared ended up turning into a rather nice-looking figure, although it was still rather mountainous considering that it was taller than Eisen himself. Next, Eisen grabbed the mana-string spinneret from the box next to him and created the needle made of mana as well, before pulling the mana string through the hole at the end of the needle before swiftly moving it through the body, although he got another idea just then.
Swiftly, Eisen created a second needle and took the other spinneret, before pulling some mana-string through the hole of the second needle, then working on the other half of the body with this needle. Considering that Eisen was controlling the needle with his thoughts at the moment anyway, as long as Eisen thought about the needle's movements mirroring each other at all times, everything would most likely work out fine.
And then with swift movements prolonging themselves beyond the end of the task that Eisen had given his students by a good while, causing them to stand up and watch what the old man was doing, Eisen sewed the metallic limbs together.
