The First Legendary Beast Master-Chapter 1148: Do You Have Golems?

Karl gave Hugo a conspiratorial smirk. "You do have Golems, don’t you?"

The big mage laughed. "I do have the Golems. I even have more Golems. The Greater Golem spell. I believe that the mage in your Overlord group has the same one, with Dragon Hounds."

Karl nodded. "Indeed she does. But if there are others in your Guild who are missing it, bring them here. And bring cake. I don’t want to go back to the Guild House to get dinner."

From the kitchen, someone laughed.

"Relax, we are cooking. I know that it’s not part of our duties here, but we enjoy cooking." One of the Dragonkin Runecrafters joked.

"If you’re short on ingredients, let me know. I’ve got a bunch stored that might not be in the house."

A bunch of stored food was a vast understatement, given how much was growing not only in the beast space, but also in the Tiny World. Not all of that was edible to most species, but enough of it was that they wouldn’t have to fear going hungry.

The Dragonkin nodded. "Miss Lotus stocked up the kitchen so that everyone could make snacks when we wanted, but her definition of snack is very broad, so there is a fully stocked pantry here."

Still, Karl sent a message to Davis, requesting that he find enough kitchen staff for the Zilaz guild house, even if they didn’t actually live here full-time.

There was a portal and plenty of room for worker lodging, so he could just keep them here during their shifts and let them go home on the weekend.

[Got it boss. I have a stack of applications from residents of the suburbs. I can send them over right away if you need chefs.] Davis replied.

[Just make sure that they’re not too skittish. We get a lot of Totem and Mythic Ranked visitors, and the auras can be pretty overwhelming for those at lower Ranks.]

Working in the Alliance house would be a nightmare of powerful aura overloads for most Commander and Royal Ranked kitchen staff from Drodh. Anyone over that rarely worked in the kitchens anymore, but Karl had faith in Davis to find him someone.

A couple of minutes later, the response came. [They will be there in fifteen minutes. They just need to pack for the week.]

More of the Alliance members were arriving, and the atmosphere was becoming more of a party as the others realized that the Tanks were all Paladins now.

Especially among the healers.

After all, the greatest advantage of the Paladins was their holy magic, which was primarily focused on defence and self-healing.

"Mages, if you don’t have Golems, please go talk to Karl. He’s got the ability to give most of you the Golem spell. The fee will be put on the Guild Alliance account, and the Guild Masters will settle the debt in the morning." Hugo announced.

That was the best news that any of the Mages could have gotten. Free spells were even better than free gear.

Not only would they get a new ability, like the most expensive of gear, but it would also be one that would endure if they wanted to change outfits.

"How does the ability work?" The Mythic Mage who had gotten the idol dress asked.

"You don’t have Golems?" Karl asked.

She shrugged. "I never got around to buying the spell. I specialize in burst damage."

Karl smiled and patted her on the head, which made her give him a confused frown.

{Champion Karl Offers Knowledge} Skill [Golem] will be transferred to the lovely Idol Annabelle.

The mage laughed as the skill transferred, and began to spin in a happy dance that reminded Karl a lot of a happy Lotus.

"I get it. Monster Man is highly attuned to beast type pets. So, he can transfer skills with head pats. All you ugly guys are screwed." She laughed.

The Paladins just stared at her. Did she think that Karl gave them all the same treatment?

No, that was clearly reserved for her.

But they all followed her when she ran outside to see what she got for Golems.

Annabelle summoned her new Golems, and then stared at them in confusion.

"I think they’re broken."

Karl shrugged. "What were you thinking of when you summoned them? There is a theory that the first casting can be shaped by intent. But once they’re set, they’re set."

They both stared at the pair of mafia goons in black suits with swords in their hands and distinctly Incubi horns and tails, then Karl smirked at the Mage.

"You were reading a romance novel before you were called over, weren’t you? That’s definitely the lead from a Romance book. Twins, no less." He added.

After another moment of shock, Annabelle swapped outfits to her new dress armour, and then went to pose with her mafia golem guards.

"There is something broken in her brain." Hugo whispered.

"Possibly, but now she’s got Golems." Karl agreed.

Annabelle made her Golems put their blades away, but didn’t dismiss them as she came back into the house. Instead, she kept them as bodyguards, flanking her like she was an actual Idol. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

In a way, she was. All the Myths were famous, even here. But it was still funny when most of these people had known her for years, and knew her as a combat mage.

One of the Totem Ranked mages came over and tilted her head for Karl to pat.

[You’re corrupting them all.] Hawk laughed.

Karl transferred the Golem skill again, and she raced outside to go test the spell.

It was too crowded in the main room to be summoning Golems. Especially if you didn’t know what size they would be.

"How about a handshake?" A tall dragonkin man asked.

"You know, I just poked the Paladins. The head pats are something like a running joke." Karl replied.

Then he shook the mage’s hand and granted the Golem skill.

There were many more mages who needed the skill, but the room was getting crowded already, and the party was starting to overflow the main room. They would have to find their way to Karl, but the guests were good about leaving him enough space to continue granting the Golem Skill, so that all the Totem and Overlord Mages could have it for their next run.

Even a little more damage would be a great help to all the groups. Especially if someone got Golems that could help Tank.

[Tian, Opal, could you please set up the upstairs for me? Just arrange the chairs and such for guests.]

[Got it. Opal is sending her illusions to do it now.] Tian replied.

Opal also sent a group of them to help in the kitchen and deliver the drinks and snacks.

Then, one of the Gargoyles led a group of Demons up the stairs, nudging them toward Karl.

"Oh, the new hires, right? It’s an impromptu party, so I will let you get settled in after." Karl greeted the man in front.

"No worries. Davis explained the situation, and the Gargoyles let us drop off our luggage on the way up. Are we doing a full dinner service, or just appetizers and drinks?"

"Appetizers and drinks. The guests have brought many of them already. I instructed them to bring snacks and cake."
