"Turned Vampire?" Gojirrah was confused.

"You think we can't kidnap people? You are worried that we can't get them out. Think carefully. If we sneak in successfully and somehow capture or poison one of them, we can turn them into your turned vampire. A Dhampir! They'd be bound to you. We won't have to kidnap them, but they will sneak out with us! They can even help us get out."

"A Dhampir? You mean... Like I am to you?"

"Yeah. None of my Coven ever used this ability. They created ghouls all the time. But if we get someone, we can turn them. We could even go for some of the Champions you hate. Do you have anyone you wanted among those lizards? We can make them your wife."

"What?! No! I don't want to take some Champions-"

It was then a great desire appeared over Gojirrah.

"Wait... Is there a limit on who the person is? How strong does the other person have to be? Can turn another Champion into one of my turned vampires?"

"Oh... You're into guys! Interesting... But I don't think their wives could lead the army... Although losing Champions could draw the out... I was hoping for the male testosterone jealousy thing."

"That's the best part! It will make all Lizard Champions attack with their forces!"

"Wow. I guess I know what the L in the LGBTQ means now."

"No! No! That's not what I meant! We don't need to get several wives. Within that kingdom is a great beauty, the Champion Dragoon, Princess Reptilia! Her beauty has been sought after. But no one could claim her heart. Is it possible for her..."

"Reptilia? You guys should really change your naming scheme. Anyway, how sure are you that taking her will draw an army of lizards?" Kyros asked suspiciously.

"Yes. If we can do that, everyone would go the distance to save her! She's incredibly beautiful. Right now, the pressure is immense. Several Commanders are trying to make her their bride. But of course, her lineage and her power won't make it difficult for them."

"An untouched beauty being taken away, huh? Is her beauty amazing?"

"Yes! Even the humans and goblins lust after her."

Kyros had a weird expression.

"Hey, Calaminus."

"I know. It's called Scalies. Basically, the equal of furries but for reptiles."

"Gotcha. Just want to know."

"So..." Kyros turned back to Gojirrah.

"That beautiful, huh?"

"She is! Look, she's not like most lizardfolk like me. Lizardkin has many mixtures. Some look closer to humanoids like elves and humans, right? But this one is the perfect mix. Most humanoid types don't fall in love for those lizardkin that look closer to reptiles, but this one attracts both!"

"Uh-uh. Scalies. I'm familiar. Hm... She a champion... So we need to subdue her to some extent."

"Can you do that, my Lord?"

"I'll need some herbs. You said this entire area has a lot of rare herbs?"

"Indeed. Some of the herbs here don't even appear on our planet!"

"Great! The Lowlands has a very low-quality amount of herbs. I always thought my path as a Poison master would happen when I reach the Midlands, at least. Although I do know that there are a lot of Pungent Shackling Poison Fruit in the nearby lands, I will need a lot more potent herbs."

"Why would you need Pungent Shackling Poison Fruits?" Gojirrah wondered.

"You'll see. Anyway... You said that there are human kingdoms nearby. So is it normal for lizards to have human slaves?"

"Yes."

"Good! Then you run back and make that report! Pretend that you managed to free yourself. Take me up as a slave. You can make it sound like that I helped you. You guys do that, right?"

"We're not savages. Carnivores, yes. But we have standards."

"Then let's do it then!"

Meanwhile...

The human's armies had finally reached the Golem City and were startled to see the gigantic orb at the center emitted a strange power.

Several golems were standing stoically, and there several Iron Golems stood by.

Around the floor were bodies of lizards and some golems that were on the ground, apparently dead.

"Thank goodness! We came in time! The Lizards have not overrun this place yet!" Branze exclaimed.

The army began to move around the area and watched the golems.

"This is... amazing!" Champion Ordeus exclaimed.

"That's not the best part. The more lizards we kill, the more golems we make." Branze motioned, and some of the men began to drag the dead lizards near the majestic orb.

"What is that?" Champion Ordeus asked.

Branze pointed at a strange inscription that was nearby.

"I can't read it." Champion Faye Emberdon asked.

"It's in an ancient language. My family studied it because it is said that great magic can be unlocked with it. Because of that, some rumors about us erupted and spread into malicious forms. I fear... that some of those families... wanted us dead because of it." Branze turned his attention to certain Viscounts.

"You dare to accuse-"

SMASH!

A powerful golem moved with incredible speed and punched the viscount sending him flying.

The golem that had appeared had a bright red form. At first, it was lying on the ground but moved with great speed that the viscount could not see.

The viscount landed down, but his jaw was dislocated.

"That is a more powerful Golem. The Jeweled Golem. It's a golem that surpasses even Champions in might." Branze laughed.

"Since I created it, it follows me and will protect me. But it's a pity that the golem did not kill the viscount. I was hoping for more of my enemies to attack me." Branze sighed.

The many knights nearby trembled.

Even Champion Ordeus wouldn't dare fight this new Golem.

And they obey me. Behold."

Branze began to make a strange chant, and the Golem that was on high alert, sat down.

"Those who speak the language of whoever created this large orb and who offers the sacrifices to either recharge these creatures can command it."

"So... I can command it?"

"Of course. As long as you recharge it. It uses a corpse and automatically does it without the need for those mages to harness it. I dare say that it's even better than mages!" Branze revealed.

"What a god-tiered artifact!"

"Yes. From what I read, that is the elemental core of a being of immense power. But right now, it's just a core. But imagine if we can awaken it! Then, even the Highlands will tremble!" Branze declared.

"It can be awakened?"

"Every time you offer monsters or any other sources of energy to create golems or recharge the living ones, it takes a small portion of it. So I am offering this to the human alliance. But I demand rewards!"

"Offer this? You don't even own this!" One of the Champions argued.

"Can any of you read First Word? Right now, this is mine. And I will prove it to you!" Branze laughed.

He then started a strange chant of words that were difficult to say.

But as Branze spoke it, the core began to release a dim light, and a terrifying pressure began to shake the entire city.

Buried beneath the ground was Petra. He was listening followed everything according to plan.

He released a small portion of his power, and it resonated with the Gigantes Core and created the trembling.

The immense energy scared everyone. It was as if it would explode.

But Branze stopped his chanting, and the tremors stopped.

"I have read all, but the last sentence in the chant found on those inscriptions. If I said it all, this entire place would explode and kill all of us! So tell me, do I own this, or not?!" Branze challenged.

The Viscounts and Champions were all silent at the scene. They were still trembling.

"For the Human Alliance, I offer this. But for my Family, I can take this away!" Branze declared.
