26 Brandon's lost

"I choose the golem that resembles me and the one wielding an axe," Brandon eagerly declared, seizing the opportunity to be the first to make his selection.

The sight of the six-armed golem and the crystal golem sent shivers down his spine.

He preferred facing opponents who used conventional weapons, which had prompted him to hastily choose those two golems before Arthur could even realize his intentions.

"Oh, look at you suddenly becoming articulate and expressing your desires, You cheeky bastard, you picked the ones that seem easier to fight," Arthur grumbled after realising he lost to Brandon in this round.

"No need to complain now, After all, they aren't even Tier 1 golems yet, Come, Arthur, you should watch Brandon take on the golems and see if you can learn anything,"

Alec interjected, beckoning Arthur to join him in watching from a distance.

"Go!" Alec commanded his golems to attack independently, curious to witness if these new variants he had crafted possessed any distinct qualities compared to other golems.

As soon as the golems received Alec's order, they immediately rushed toward Brandon, the golem wielding the two-handed sword leading the charge as he clashed against Brandon with reckless abandon.

A small shockwave erupted as Brandon clashed his great sword against the golem's weapon, sending it flying backward.

However, before he could regain his composure, he found himself facing a colossal axe descending straight toward his head.

"F*ck this!" Brandon blurted out, after being caught off guard by the surprise attack.

Arthur stood with his mouth agape, while Alec was taken aback at the sneak attack of the axe golem.

Nonetheless, he found himself admiring the intensity of the unfolding battle.

Although the Axe golem's strike had caught Brandon off guard, he quickly reacted by using his large sword as a shield, hoping to endure the blow and retaliate.

However, Brandon soon realized the grave mistake he made by underestimating the strength of this particular golem compared to the one with the great sword.

After the impact, Brandon was forced back a few steps, his hand trembling from the sheer force of the Axe golem's strike.

Realizing his error, Alec chimed in,

"Even if you enjoy combat, for God's sake, you're a mage! Try countering their attack with earth, magic spell atleast, You have mana; don't be stingy with it."

In an unexpectedly unconventional manner, Alec offered his advice to Brandon.

He cursed himself for not realizing sooner that someone with such incredible Affinity like Brandon only have low level in his elemental spells cause he never embraced his true potential as a mage, but rather he had been relying solely on physical combat strength.

Brandon finally acknowledged that he would need to be more versatile if he wanted to come out victorious against these formidable golems.

"Stone Bullet," Brandon exclaimed,

diverting a barrage of stone projectiles toward the axe-wielding golem, aiming to disrupt its combo attack, as it was planning on striking him again.

He couldn't believe he had been bested by two unclassified golems.

It was a defeat that stung worse than fighting Tier 1 zombies.

Alec's applause filled the air as a satisfied smile formed on his lips.

He observed with great interest how Brandon's status he waas looking at had visibly changed after the intense battle.

Merely a few minutes of struggle against his golems had brought about slight improvements in Brandon's abilities.

"I knew it!" Alec exclaimed, his voice filled with excitement.

' By pushing them to experience near-death moments, they grow rapidly and tap into their untapped potentials much quicker.'

He placed his hands on his chin, deep in thought as he considered how much more pressure to add to their fights.

"Why are you smiling so mischievously again?" Arthur questioned, his curiosity piqued.

"No, I'm not," Alec denied, trying to hide his wicked grin.

"You know, you don't have a lot of expressions, so I can always tell when you're plotting something evil, I just hope whatever you're thinking about, you won't include me in it," Arthur pleaded, a hint of fear in his voice.

"Well, I feel like you're just scared to face the challenge, Instead of trying to talk your way out of it, why don't you go down there and stop wasting time?" Alec responded, his tone filled with a mix of annoyance and determination.

Arthur let out a resigned sigh as he reluctantly made his way towards the center of the courtyard, where the remaining two imposing golems awaited him, ready for their upcoming spar.

Meanwhile, Alec took a moment to check his notifications, hoping to see the progress of his golems.

[Axe Wielding Golem]

> Skills Learned:

■ Axe Mastery Level 1

□ Dash Level 1

[Destroyer Golem]

> Skills Learned:

□ Dash Level 1

Alec couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction as he saw that the Axe golem had successfully learned its main weapon mastery.

However, the Sword Wielding golem, which had been given the name "Destroyer Golem" by the system, had yet to acquire its own weapon mastery.

But Alec believed that it was close to achieving it, and with a few more fights, it might finally unlock its weapon mastery.
