Chapter 306 Core Guardian (2/2)
Although, just when that thought crossed Eisen's mind, the Core Guardian's eye twitched a little and it moved its hand to its head with a grimacing expression, before it ripped both of its eyes open immediately and then stood up upright, jumping to its legs nearly immediately as if in a military academy and Eisen was the instructor that just caught it slacking off.
”This is… amazing…” Eisen muttered quietly to himself as he looked at the naked, androgynous, somewhat child-like figure in front of him. Of course Eisen himself knew what it was, and its skin wasn't a natural color, right now it was just a very metallic gray tone and was lightly glistening at the little bit of lighting that Eisen had in his Workshop, but if one took care of that and maybe painted the metallic skin, the Core Guardian may as well look completely like an actual, living person, especially due to the sight amount of Micro-expressions on its face, and the slight wobble that its body had.
It was truly like a person, but Eisen was completely aware that it was made of nothing organic in the slightest. It was an artificial creation, the process of which was done 100% by this old man.
”You are beautiful…” Eisen whispered as he grabbed the Core Guardian's arm to check if it really was still just metal, or if some kind of weird magic stuff was going on and the core guardian wasn't just switched out with an actual person, although it was probably the worst moment for Eisen's grandchildren to appear in the room.
”Err… Yeah, Grampa, what's going on?” Stahl asked with a wry smile and a frown on his face, as it looked to him like his grandfather was kneeling in front of a naked, gray-skinned child, but Eisen didn't care up the situation and just spoke up with a broad grin.
”I finished it! Come on, take a look! He- She- It, whatever, we'll have to figure that out later, is the Core Guardian!” Eisen exclaimed with an ecstatic expression from the moment that he confirmed that the Core Guardian's skin really was just made of metal still, and Stahl looked at Eisen and the small figure confused.
”Wait, what?” He asked and immediately stepped up to the figure and touched its shoulder, noticing the cold feeling of steel, before he opened his eyes wide.
”Holy shit!” Stahl yelled excitedly, and while Alnico was also quite impressed, she stayed silent through all of this and just watched, before Eisen looked at his two Grandchildren with a grin.
”You two, go take Fafnir with you and make him create the Entrance to the Dungeon in the meeting room, then tell the originals to make their way to the Core Room, please.” Eisen asked excitedly, and Stahl, who had just recently learned the beauty of such creations, nodded his head immediately and sprinted out of the room, taking the living dungeon and his cousin with him as he did so, while Eisen kept looking at the Core Guardian.
”Alright, let's get you dressed for now.” Eisen said with a smirk on his face, although the Core Guardian swiftly responded, in a rather cold and emotionless voice, although far more human than Eisen ever expected it to be.
”I do not require clothing. They might be hindering as I fulfill my purpose.” It responded, simply staring forward toward the wall without moving for a moment, but Eisen just responded with a wry smile and pulled a simple robe over its head.
”Yeah, sure. I'd prefer it if you wore clothes, though. This should do for now, but we'll figure out something better later.” Eisen explained with a smile, and the Core Guardian just stood there like a statue, before Eisen's initial excitement finally died down a bit as he looked at the notification next to him.
[Legacy Creation – Core Guardian]
[Name – None][Connected Core – None]
[Rank – 0][Level – 0]
[Description] The Legacy of the first that peaked, created by himself. With the help of knowledge that it is given by the world, it is able to control a single core perfectly and knows anything that has to do with it. It becomes the core, and the core becomes it. If the Guardian is destroyed, so is the Core, and if the Core is Destroyed, so is the Guardian.
Somewhat surprised, Eisen looked at the weird format of the information screen, which seemed to be something like a mix-match between the information screen of a creature and the information screen of an item.
And while the old man was confused that it was at 'Level 0', or more specifically confused about the fact that it was even able to level up in the first place, he figured that his newest Creation would probably be the best to answer such questions.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
However, there was a different issue that Eisen wanted to figure out first, which was the fact that this newly 'Created' Core Guardian still had no name. And even if the old man was aware that it might not be the best choice of name, but for some reason, it felt like an interesting combination considering that this Core Guardian would end up connected to Fafnir.
Either way, Eisen stepped up to the door of his Workshop and looked at the metallic figure wearing a simply cloth robe behind him.
”Let's go, Sigurd.”
