Chapter 125: Forming mana seed (a)

In the middle of it was a fat giant wearing a cap and a towering wolf, both devouring the world of meat and drinking the ocean of soup.

"Bang!" Whittaker's vision changed and the real world was reflected in his eyes. 

[Peeking time has ended] the system notified.

"Why was the giant entitled as Wolfie Father?" Whittaker muttered in shock. He shook his head left and right to dispel the image of the ugly towering giant in his mind.

"My Wolfie is so weird!" Whittaker thought while standing up from his bed.

"Next, I should find sis Nina or Elder Zachary to reach the library of this palace!" Whittaker thought.

Stepping out of the room, Whittaker found himself in between a hallway. He could go left or right but Whittaker decided to go right. 

"Little brother, you are awake. I brought some snacks for you!"

Just as he was about to take a step to the right, a voice resounded from behind his back. Whittaker instantly identified her as Nina as no one else is gonna call him "little brother" in this place.

A delicious and sweet fragrant of something warm and fresh entered his nostril, melting the soreness away, soreness caused by sitting for hours to form four units of soul force.

This was the effect of 3-star Honey Milk infused with "Sky Patterned Golden Honey."

This sweet and warm drink is considered to be the most lethal tool that wives and concubines of the emperors and warlords use to silence their crying babies and naughty children. This milk was extremely effective and addictive to young ones!

In an instant, Whittaker forgot all about the important stuff and happily followed Nina, reaching inside the room and sitting on the bed. Only after did he start drinking the milk while occasionally dipping dry cakes and cookies in the warm milk to soften them up then gobble them.

"Hick!" Whittaker patted his belly while thinking, 'At this rate, if I keep on eating everything offered to me; I will get fat at a rapid phase! But the food that sis cook is too enticing!'

While he was thinking that, Nina meticulously wipes the white mustache on her little handsome face, all the while she was smiling.

"Sis, do you know where's the library at?" Whittaker asked after he finished what was offered to him, very satisfied.

"Yes, I came here to take you around the palace. And, explain to you about the training timetable father has set for you." Nina took Whittaker near the magical rune designs inscribed on the walls of his room.

"This bright magical rune design here is the spatial gateway to the library. This pink one will take you to the mana paradise, a garden where mana meditation techniques have their effect boosted by three times. This yellowish rune is also a gateway to the practice ground where you can train your skills and spells. Plus, from next Sunday to Wednesday, Elder Zachary himself will teach you about magical rune designs and how to create talismans, formations, and a lot of other stuff!" She excitedly explained to the amused snowy-haired boy, curious about another topic.

When Nina asked what thoughts he is lost in, Whittaker utilized Puppy's eyes in return.

"Elder sister Nina, can I learn how to cook delicious food from you?" He asked while staring into her eyes with his big almond-sized eyes.

[Ding! The Guardian skill "Puppy eyes" is extremely effective!]

The system notified! Nina, the soul of the rank-10 reality management soul was instantly mesmerized and she nodded her head very forcefully while squeezing someone's chubby cheeks.

"Sure! Just tell me whenever you want to start learning, I will teach you!" Nina replied.

....

Some minutes later, she left the room, leaving Whittaker to his device.

"Damn, this skill is a double-edged sword!" Whittaker thought while rubbing his ruddy cheeks. Puppy eyes is a skill that has both favorable and unfavorable consequences, Whittaker tasted both first hand. "From now on, I gotta limit the usage of this legendary skill!"

While thinking that, he walked up to the portal and pulled out a cyan card. Before Nina went away, she had handed over the Master Card to Whittaker so that he can roam throughout the palace without activating traps or facing limitations set by her father, elder Zachary.

[Item: Master Card

Description: A special card created by elder Zachary for his inheritor. It offers access to the different locations and places located inside Elder Zachary's palace and the nearby ground. The Guardian can also use this card to activate the magical runes designs in his room to instantly reach faraway places]

The palace of elder Zachary's was pretty wide and Whittaker didn't even know how wide it was. There were more than a hundred floors in this place. 

He touched the bright rune design with his master card, in that very moment, a spatial gateway opened up in the wall and Whittaker entered it.

He arrived at the doors of two buildings, each with ten floors. One was called Battle Masters World; the other, paradise for mages.

As Whittaker approached the paradise for mages, an old and rusty golem with Scarlet eyes sitting nearby the door was startled awake. "Who are you and why have you came here??" He questioned while blocking Whittaker's way.

Meet Mister Goguard, a golem Elder Zachary created two hundred or so years ago to guard the entrance of his treasured library but this place hasn't seen any visitor for the past few decades so It was left to wat dust. Occasionally, Nina would visit him to provide some mechanical care on its rusty body. That was the only interaction in his life.

Goguard didn't know that someone has defeated the challenges of his master and has become an inheritor to Zachary's inheritance so he acted out of place and blocked the young master.

Whittaker naturally knew of this old and rusty golem, sister Nina had told him about it. She even had a good relationship with Goguard.

He cupped his hands and honestly replied, "Elder Goguard, I am here to obtain suitable techniques for myself." While saying that, Whittaker pulled out the master card and showcased it to the golem, "You don't need to guard against me, I am the next master of this place!" He said with a beaming smile.

"The next master of this place?" The Scarlet eyes of the golem instantly turned green and coldness gradually faded away from his face. "Young master, since you are the inheritor of my master then you can just call me by my name. There's no need to be respectful to me. Also, If you want to enter the building, then please do." Goguard spoke earnestly with good intentions. A master shouldn't deeply respect his slave, after all. He should be authoritative and commanding but Whittaker wasn't someone who changes face with the gain in status.

He whispered something in the golem's ears while revealing a smile before turning around and entering the paradise for mages.

"What a great inheritor. I don't mind serving him with all my life!" Left behind was Goguard who was filled with respect for a long period of time.
