Chapter 150 Goldar

"Papi! Why do you do this to me? Gah! I want the gold because it mixes with the systeminium! And now you are going to tell me, Sofia, that is wonderful! That is even better for him, but that is all the gold that I have! ¡Por el Amor de Dios!" Sofia complained, mocking my deeper voice.

"Really? You are right, and that is great, but complaining about it isn't going to let you keep that gold. I will get you all the gold you want, do not worry about that. We have the Annokale and their Host traveling with seeds, so at some point, we are going to track down the reserves. Get me to gold, so I don't have to use the coating on your wooden table and chairs!" I threatened, and Sofia's eyes snapped open.

"You scoundrel, Papi! You are not supposed to tell people that! Fine! The gold is coming, but you had better replace it!" Sofia snapped, and I narrowed my eyes at her.

"Don't act like I don't know about you ransacking south city! I can feel everything that happens, you know? And I know about the large haul of gold already incoming. Enough of this bickering back and forth," I said as a chest filled with all sorts of gold pieces in it was brought out on grass.

I walked over to the chest and knelt down, putting my hand on the gold. I turned to Gravois and offered my hand to him.

Gravois looked hesitant at first, but he came over after a short pause.

"Make me Gold?" Gravois asked after taking my hand, pointing to himself.

"Yes," I said and looked at Sofia after Gravois took my hand into his rock one. "Can you see if you can help me repair his mind? When I do this, it should wipe the Gideons control that is blocking parts of him. I need you to help put the pieces back together if you can."

"I will do the best that I can," Sofia said as she came over behind Gravois.

"I will give you energy and see if I can lock away whatever is inside of his head," Gaia said as she came up behind me, but I shook my head.

"Just give me energy, and stay out of his head. We have no idea how he was infected; we just know he was captured at some point and then released back to the group like he had broken free. According to Octavia's records, he wasn't able to talk before this," I explained, and I could feel Gaia nodding.

"Is there anything that I can do?" Victoria asked, and I nodded.

"Come and support me like Gaia. Just put your hands on my back with her, and Gaia will use your energy to feed me as well. We are all connected to her, and she to us, so she can use you like a conduit to draw more power," I said, and soon I felt her hands on my back.

Not that I didn't like the new change, but I was concerned that there was something wrong, but the girls assured me it was nothing. I had a hard time believing that, but I would let her come to me when she was ready to talk.

With everyone in place, I closed my eyes, and my System menu popped up.

[System Creation]

[System Adjust]

[System Info]

[Clone List]

[Planet Status]

I selected [System Adjust], and a new screen opened, but this one was a scan of Gravois and details about his system.

Name: Gravois

I confirmed the choice, and power started to flood into me as I pulled Gravois and the systeminuim that he was attached to from the rocks. The rock hand crumbled into mine, and I opened my eyes to see a golden body growing from the trunk that my hand was on.

I closed my eyes once more, looked over the chart once more, and smiled internally.

Name: Goldar

Race: Annokale

I opened my eyes again, and Goldar was looking down at his hands in shock. The name change was strange, but with his current look, it made sense.

"How do you feel?" I asked as I stood up.

"Like someone that I have not been in a very long time. Myself," Goldar said and then looked up from his hands at me. "Thank you for fixing my mind and getting rid of Beta."

"Beta? So that is the name of that Demon that was stuck in your head?" I asked, looking back at the rocks that had once been a person.

The rocks were all the same flat red metal now that the more significant part of his body had turned into before. I allowed Firaga to try eating some, but she didn't like it, and it gave her no benefits.

"Yes, the one that captured me before when I was trying to defend a village of natives that were primitives. I don't know what happened after getting caught. I just woke up to run in the forest, but Beta was in my head, preventing me from speaking and all but locking me inside that form. Each time I was connected to an inanimate object, and I was forced to watch myself betray people that trusted me," Goldar said with a tired voice.

"That does sound hard, but you have a chance to move forward again. You have a unique ability that I am going to need in the future. There are some unbelievable things that I have planned, so we are going to need every advantage that we can get," I said.

Then I turned around to face Hellyle. He looked like a lizard-faced human without wings and red scales covering his body.

Best

"That means that we are going to have to change your system as well, Mr. Dragon. What are you thinking of becoming?" I asked, and the Dragon smiled.

"Dragon… Hunter!" Hellyle growled, and I grinned.
