Chapter 50 The Guardian Of The Moon

Nathan stood on the dry and dark ground of the Crescent Moon Dimension. He closed his eyes to get used to the lack of light in that space.

He turned his head to one side, towards the volcano, which was emitting red flashes of light from the magma erupting from within. "I don't know why I'm still traumatized every time I see that volcano." He smiled.

Another figure appeared beside him. Nathan turned and found Edna in her maid outfit, bowing her head and smiling at him. "Nice to meet you, young master."

Nathan smiled at Edna's words.

That pocket dimension space was very silent. The wind was blowing thinly, and the air temperature was comfortable enough to live in. If Nathan could linger in that place or stay there without restrictions, maybe he would prefer to stay there for most of his time.

"Master Nathan…. One-San….." A girl ran from a distance. Luna, with bare feet, approached and waved her hand.

"Hi… Luna…" Edna jogged and knelt down so she could talk to the girl more easily.

"How are you? You've taken good care of the young master in the dungeon before.? I'm grateful that at least he still has you to accompany him."

Luna chuckled lightly, "I am fine. And yes, I've never left Master Nathan."

Nathan turned to the two of them, raising one eyebrow. "Huh? Really? Yes, I'm sure Luna never once left me."

Nathan walked past the two of them and let them talk to each other.

Nathan walked towards the mouth of the cave where his pile of gold coins was. He paused for a moment to enjoy the sight he missed so much.

"I love gold…."

Someone grabbed his palm. Nathan looked to the left and found Luna holding his hand.

"Master Nathan, what do you plan to do today? Do you want to check out the other artifacts available in this dimension?"

Nathan looked back in all directions. Several streaks of red light radiated into the sky, and he did not find any streaks of green. "Those artifacts. I can't use them yet, right?"

"Yes, you can't use them yet. But you can still take a look at them. At least you will know what kind of incredible things you might have access to in the future."

"Hmmm..." Nathan paused for a moment. "I… don't want to see any artifacts in this place yet. At least for now." He grinned broadly at Luna.

Nathan walked into the cave. "Luna, Edna, I need your help."

He walked over to the pile of gold coins. Edna and Luna followed right behind him.

"I once saw an armor made of adamantine among these piles of gold. But because the size is too big, I ignored it. I need your help to collect those things for me."

Nathan turned to Edna, whose face seemed to reflect the golden light from her white skin. "Okay young master." She smiled and nodded slowly.

The space inside was in stark contrast to the outside. At that place, even though there was no definite light source, the glow of gems and gold seemed to illuminate the entire space of the cave.

Nathan scavenged through piles of coins with his hands and feet, looking for anything other than gold coins he could find. Luna was staying near him.

"Luna..." He called out.

"Yes, Master?"

"I got a new class when I created the last skill I used against Zander. Have you checked it?"

Luna nodded quickly at Nathan's question.

"Skill Creation System." Nathan whispered softly.

[Skill Creation Route Quests][+]

Nathan reread the list of all the skills he had so far. Without realizing it, he already had 14 skills not long after awakening.

"Grim Reaper." Nathan pointed at the new class he got.

"Yes, yes… It belongs to the Assassin category. A class devoted to assassinating." Luna nodded back and walked over to Nathan. She looked up so she could easily meet Nathan's face.

"I wanted to talk about this class, but let's just postpone it till we are outside." Nathan smiled and then sat on a pile of gold.

"Afterimage Creation."

Luna chuckled lightly at the explanation of Nathan's skills. "I'm amazed at how you used a skill as simple as this to defeat Zander, Master."

Nathan took a deep breath, then leaned back. "I ran out of ways and ended up with this kind of skill. Actually, I did this only intending to make Zander angrier because I was deliberately toying with him."

"Marco was really great to read such a small thing from Zander, isn't it?" Luna said.

"Yes. Somehow, he could think of defeating Zander by taking advantage of his carelessness. I couldn't have escaped that dungeon without my collaboration with Marco. At the last moment, he also gave me a chance to kill Zander and take all the experience for myself."

Edna was done with what she was doing. She walked over and sat beside Nathan, who was lying down on a pile of gold.

"Are you still thinking about what you did in that dungeon, young master?" Edna asked quietly.

Nathan nodded slowly. "Yes, I'm still bothered by what I've done. I, with my own hands, have taken someone's life. And what actually made me think deeply about this is… You know what, Edna?"

Nathan lifted his body, sat down, and faced Edna, who was sitting right beside him.

Edna smiled and shook her head.

"Somehow, I don't feel any remorse or anything like that. Like… I've found various reasons for what I've done. You know? I have taken someone's life. Someone who fought hard because of something that happened to his daughter."

"Daughter?"

"Yeah, didn't Marco tell you that?"

Edna shook her head at Nathan's question.

"Zander talking about his daughter that gave him the reason to work for Bastien."

Nathan was silent for a moment, then lifted himself up and stood up. He patted his pants, which had several gold coins stuck there.

He walked over to some of the armor and weapons that Edna had collected.

There were several sets of black armor lying on the ground.

Nathan crouched down and examined the armor. There was a crescent shape engraving on the right chest and sleeves.

"Hmmm… Crescent Moon?"

Edna and Luna stood behind him.

"Luna, tell me. What will happen if I recreate my personal golem using this armor?"

"Eh…. The Monster Cores and Soul Stones you used to create the golem earlier will most likely be destroyed." Luna answered.

"Can I create a golem with this armor? I mean, look, it really looks like a human. Everyone will think this golem is a human in full body armor."

"Yes… But, Master…. this armor is empty inside…"

Nathan glanced back at Luna. "Can I fill this armor with gold coins? I mean, whatever, as long as this armor isn't empty, right?"

Luna nodded quickly. "Yes, yes… I think that method can be used."

"Okay… We don't have much time."

Nathan stood up and ran to the pile of gold coins nearby.

Edna and Luna understood what he meant and helped him to fill the armor with gold coins.

After some time, "I think the preparation is sufficient. And I'm a little hopeful that this golem can produce better skills, considering that this place has The Breath, with a higher tier than New Earth."

Luna nodded quickly in response to Nathan's words.

Nathan knelt down and touched the pitch-black armor filled with gold coins.

He noticed the shape of the armor, and it reminded him of the figure of a guardian, knight, or soldier in whatever era and world. He had never seen armor of such a shape. But clearly, someone who used it has a height of about 2 meters.

Nathan might even use the armor if he was taller than he currently has.

"It's a pity that I don't have another Soul Stone that I can use to create this golem. But I hope 3 Monster Cores with a higher level would satisfy me with the results."

Nathan took out 1 goblin core monster and 2 wild boar core monsters.

"This armor is made of Adamantine. Truly amazing. If this thing is to be sold, I'm sure the price would be very high."

Nathan placed 3 small stones on the chest of the armor.

He then muttered under his breath, "Earth Golem Personal Avatar."

His heart beat faster, a flow of energy was felt in his veins, and silver-gold-colored energy flowed out from his palm.

The energy flowed continuously into the armor on the ground and instantly made it move as if it was shaken by something.

Every piece of armor was strangely lifted into the air and took a stance like armor being worn by someone.

Nathan stood up, watching the subsequent transformation of the golem.

The gold coins in the armor seemed to merge and create golden streaks in several places, dazzling the light from within. And the sandy soil from the surface of the cave also clearly covered some parts of the armor, giving it a new texture from its previous form.

After a few seconds, there was no visible movement from the armor. And Nathan's new golem has been successfully completed.

He immediately read the description of his newest golem and immediately frowned at the golem's name, which seemed a little strange to him.

"The Guardian of The Moon?"
