The Golem Mage

Alec was seeing himself in the Sangurion form for the first time, and he had to admit, he looked extremely handsome.

Not that he had changed drastically, not really, it was more about the way everything came together, the pale skin, the slightly elongated ears, the longer fangs that subtly protruded from his mouth, his hair, and especially his red eyes.

Those eyes weren’t blazing or feral, they were calm, deep, and strangely captivating.

He couldn’t help thinking of Damien and realized that he too had always been able to draw attention effortlessly, especially from females, that led Alec to one clear conclusion: the Bat-type demonic beast bloodline seems to have enhanced his charm in a way even he couldn’t fully explain.

It felt absurd, a demonic beast that was supposed to be ugly, grotesque, and terrifying somehow added elegance and allure to his appearance.

Even knowing that the Sangurion had connections to one of the strongest branches of the undead clan, the vampires, he still found it ridiculous.

Apart from granting him a powerful boost in blood affinity, the Sangurion bloodline also granted him Sound affinity, though he still hadn’t used it yet, mostly because he didn’t understand its fundamentals, but he had already benefited from a special passive ability tied to it.

His ears could now detect attacks faster than even his mental sense that spread around him, before his danger signals even reached his mind, his hearing seems to react to it first.

It was almost like echolocation, an instinctive spatial awareness born from sound manipulation, the ability fascinated him.

He already planned to ask the Grand Elder about it when he had the chance, while lost in thought, Oni and Magnito had already reached him and greeted him, as Alec merely waved them off lightly.

Then a new notification appeared before him.
