《The Tale Of A Golem Master》Chapter 7
Advertisement
I started making enough golems for a full team similar to Martimer's current team, except I made four mage golems as well. I sent two, to go with Martimer's team, then I made one guardian knight, one spear knight, one archer, and another two assassins. After that was finished and I had them clothed, none of them were higher than normal rating and none of them were growth types. I had them on standby and got to work on making another Frankenstein golem because I don't have the luxury of waiting, after I craft this I will be piss, poor in game. At least with the Frankenstein golem it will be a growth type with a growth class.
After crafting it I named her Joul. Her body type was similar to Martimer's but had shorter hair and wasn't as well defined in the assets department. That didn't take away from her looks though. She started as the same rating as Martimer. After finishing everything up I made sure everyone was clothed and at least had some weapons and a few pieces of armor before sending them out. Both teams would work in tandem with each other to cover more ground and discuss with themselves the best way to hunt the mobs in the area.
Once all that was said and done, I decided to increase my mining skill even further and expand at the same time. Currently my mining skill was intermediate level five. It's pretty high, but considering how big the hideout is, I would be upset if it was any less. While I was mindlessly mining, I decided to have the cameagle that was used to observe the wandering party, explore to see if I could find any targets on interest, or just something to pass the time while I mine.
I'm not adverse to being connected for multiple real world days at a time and I probably will since I want to expand pretty far. It was then that I heard something interesting from Torva while I was mining. He was challenged to a competition between him and the mero company when it came to blacksmithing. Looks like a free quest win for Grid, I'll just let Torva give me updates on the situation while I continue to look for another target to observe. After mining for two nights straight in Satisfy, I decided to call it and log off.
By the time I logged back on, Torva explained to me that Grid encountered an Orator that seemed to be trying to rally the citizens of Winston for the Mero Company. An Orator huh? I don't know how that would work in golem form but it wouldn't hurt to get another production method to grind I guess. I sent my cameagle that was roaming about to their location and it started to observe him once I got there. Apparently it would only take two hours to gain a production method due to the nature of the class. After finishing the skill it seemed that the orator 'Huroi' was captured by the Mero Company and imprisoned. Oh well, it's his own fault for getting involved with them. I'll just continue to grind up my skill levels as much as possible and hope for one more growth type golem.

11:50 p.m.
Lim Cheolho, the head of Satisfy and the S.A. Group just finished being somewhat surprised by the user who obtained the first Legendary class and triggered an S-grade hidden quest. Now he is observing a user that obtained a class that was originally made as a joke that couldn't possibly become a reality, yet this user somehow destroyed the Super A.I. Morpheus' prediction of the user giving up with the class.
The main reason why he would give up? The amount of resources and capital needed to even get started was absurd, and even if a few golems were made, there is no guarantee that the golems would get even basic A.I. with personalities. Yet, somehow, someway, the first golem the user 'Daz' makes was based off of 'Grid's' Legendary class! Not only that, but that TItle of his had the absurd effect of allowing him to make up classes as long as it didn't break the game itself! Thankfully I made the failsafe of the hidden effect never showing its description, even if it's effects were discovered. Also, to put a damn cherry on top, he already had four golems with advanced A.I.'s on the level of NPC's like Piaro and Earl Ashur!
"Morpheus, if Daz's golem Martimer and Krugel were put on an even playing field then what are the chances of Martimer winning?"
[The probability of Golem Martimer winning against Krugel is 40%, if Martimer were to absorb and assimilate a large amount of creatures varying in kinds and power. Then she would have a 75% chance of winning.]
"What?"
At that time, the head of Satisfy added another user to the list of 'Miracle' players that broke Morpheus' predictions.
In the midst of mining, I found a black iron ore vein! This is a great boon for me. That reminds me, I should have my two golem teams run dungeons nearby to get materials for gear and some levels a bit faster, but I don't want to stop them from hunting either. I guess I could send one team to do a raid or dungeon and have the other continue to hunt nearby. Soe good news is that Grid made some Epic rated items under the watchful eyes of Torva so she gained some inspiration from his form when blacksmithing.
I noticed something interesting with one of the cameagles I had roaming around. It was currently near the Akero Dungeon, I don't know how it got to such a high level area but then again it can fly with advanced stealth so I doubt it would get caught easily. I noticed a young looking girl with the username Euphemina getting harassed by other users showing of their skills. Nothing special was going on until I tried to use Golem Understanding on her.

[Player 'Euphemina' has an Epic class that has much higher stats than a normal or rare class of the same level and is a much higher level than user. Golem Understanding can not be used at this time.]
That's the first time I couldn't use Golem Understanding on someone, however that didn't deter me at all and instead only made me more determined to make a production method out of her class. Looks like I found one of the epic class users. I decided to have my cameagle continue to follow her around from a distance. After that I went to the second workshop to work on more cameagles. While working on the cameagles, I noticed that Euphemina was headed towards Kesan Canyon.
"I wonder why she is headed there? I guess I'll find out soon enough, but it's either for leveling or quest."
She went inside a cave and it seemed like she started to engage a fight with someone right after she triggered a trap set by them. It looks like she has to do a quest to fight this NPC but is easily getting overwhelmed. It seems like his name is Piaro, I wonder who that is. I tried using golem understanding on him as well but it also failed, this time because his class was great swordsman. In a short period of time it seemed like Euphemina would win and I had to guess that her class was some type of powerful mage. However, even with the bombardment of spells on Piaro, he still came out fine and defeated Euphemina. If I were to guess the closest town she could spawn in would be Winston, I'll have to send one of my newly created cameagles to find and follow her. After everything settled down in the cave, Piaro surpassed my expectations with what he did next.
"Who's there! I can sense you nearby, you can't fool me! Are you another one of Asmophel's dogs?"
I decided to have the cameagle remain silent for now and slowly back away. However, the silence was broken not long after.
"(Rumble)"
The sound of Piaro's stomach went off and echoed in the cave. It was then that an idea came to me, I sent the cameagle out to gather some nearby fruits and bring them to Piaro. This may be the only chance I have to get a cameagle to spy on him. The great thing about the cameagles is that they have a small inventory of five slots, so I had it leave the desert temporarily and gather fruit, vegetables, and meat from some weak rabbits it could scavenge from, before flying back to Piaro. When the cameagle entered the cave, Piaro instantly became alert and got into a defensive stance. I had the cameagle land a distance from him in his sight, he didn't lower his guard even in the slightest, but didn't make the first move. Slowing my breath, I had the cameagle empty a small portion of its inventory of food in front of it. I started sweating as Piaro saw the food and slowly started to make its way to it. Once Piaro was right in front of the food and cameagle he started to speak.
"You are quite the peculiar bird. I haven't seen your kind before. I thought you were another enemy, but it seems you want to introduce yourself as a friend. I'm going to start a fire for this meat, you wouldn't happen to have any more would you?"
Piaro was still a bit cautious but I had the cameagle remove all the meat it scavenged from it's inventory and Piaro widened his eyes in surprise, before finally relaxing his guard. I released a breath that I didn't even know I was holding. I was so focused on the situation that I stopped making cameagles. After making a fire and once Piaro started cooking, he gave the cameagle the name of Duke. I decided to log off at that point but not before I had given a command for Duke to listen to Piaro's commands and to periodically hunt for food for him if he doesn't do it himself. Before I logged off, I saw him feeding some food to Duke while eating some himself. I wonder where the food goes if consumed by a golem, huh, food for thought, no pun intended.

Can she become a Great Sage and live life happily this time? Note: This is not a "revenge of the villainess" novel, but rather a "rise to fame" novel.

If you are here to put down a novel, please remember, first of all, you are not paying anything to read this, and second of all, authors are humans too.
