Deus: We are all Lords

As though the Golem was responding to his command, the rocks on its body immediately began to shift apart. They moved as though they all minds of their own and floated in the air in a manner that allowed them show the Golem's general structure but in a way that he could see its insides easily.

Seeing this, Kingsley noted that natural golems didn't have any special structure and were truly rocks that came together to form a living being. They were strong simply because of it was made of rocks and nothing else.

Looking through the golem, Kingsley finally saw the special feature that wasn't in any of his creations. It was a small spherical rock or crystal; he didn't exactly know what it was since it was too perfect. This sort of perfection shouldn't be inside a natural product.

[Lord's Eye]

...

Name: Golem Core

Rank: A

Description:

A small spherical object born or found in area of incredibly high concentrations of Mana. A Golem core as its name implies is an object that acts as the control center or the brain of a golem.

They are only born under the condition that a creature dies in an area of higher Mana concentration. The embers of its soul is mixed with the available mama to create a core which then molds a body out of anything it finds around it.

Abilities:

Molding: The very nature of a Golem core is to mold a body for itself out of any available material it can access

Transformation: a golem's body isn't set instead is only shaped according to the subconscious wills of the previous creature or by observation of a superior race

...

"Well at least It has been confirmed that I am stupid" Kingsley said out loud as he laughed out himself

He had created sophisticated bodies that were packed with mana and all but had somehow forgotten to create a simply brain for his golems. From what is seen, the brain doesn't exactly have to be fully conscious nor does it have to possess outstanding intelligence.

It just had to be there to control he movements and actions of the Golem. None of his creations had that…. Well, they did, they just didn't have the driving force behind each brain.

These golems had the semi-consciousness of some dead creature, the ones he created had none of that. It was the same way with a computer, no matter how powerful the hardware may be, it was useless if there was no appropriate software.

"So basically, a golem is just a magical robot" Kingsley mentally noted as he reconstructed the golem but it was now without its core

In doing so, the golem's body dropped like a rock and didn't show any signs of returning back to normal. Seeing this, Kingsley could conclude that the core was truly the golem's brain.

"What if…." Kingsley said as he immediately got to action forgetting that he was being watched by practically all in the territory.

He was the ruler and each of his action was under surveillance by his subjects especially the newly added governor known as Alex. The girl watched as Kingsley slowly sat on his ground with his legs crossed and begin to play with the dirt.

"Why is he so odd?" she thought to herself as she continued watching him.

"I would advise that you find something else to occupy yourself than watching his Majesty, even grass would get bored of watching him at some point" Hestia interrupted

"I know but why does it seem as though he is always doing something when he literally has the power to create and destroy as he wants"

"Because you can, doesn't necessarily mean you should. He is trying to create a self-reliant nation, to do that means to create techniques that can be shared" Hestia explained

"Oh…. That makes sense" Alex answered then slowly made her way to where Kingsley was.

Kingsley on the other hand, had completely disassembled the Golem Core. He wanted to figure out which elements needed to come together and in what ratio to create such a thing. Naturally before him was nothing because the core had been reduced to its primary state aka mana.

"I see, it doesn't have any nature in particular…. I guess that helps it adapt and create a body no matter where it finds itself" Kingsley theorized based on the core's elemental nature.

"Can I join you?" a female voice asked interrupting his thoughts and looking up, He saw Alex standing there and behind her was a Demon Goblin and one of her High Orcs.

"Though I don't see how you could do that but sure" Kingsley said as he created a small mat for her to sit on top

"That is incredibly sexist"

"No… it's more ablest than sexist, you can't do what I can and that is a fact" Kingsley corrected but still focused on what he was doing as he recreated the Golem core

"Well, I may not look like it at the moment but I am a craftsman…. Or at least my talent is related to that field" Alex said knowing that she would never win against Kingsley in such an argument.

The young man was a calm person and a cool person to be around but immediately one mentions one of the so-called 'woke' topics, he immediately reverts to some old man. Well not like she disagreed with his ideas considering their situation.

"That can't be, right?.. I mean the system must have given you combat related abilities" Kingsley asked in complete disbelief

"It was our lady who made our weapons and armor using leather and tusks or bones gotten from dead monsters, and wood from the trees" the high orc answered

"Hmmm" Kingsley made a sound in thought.

He honestly never thought of her as someone with Craft-related abilities. The girl adapted so quickly to combat that Kingsley had assumed that her talent was surely combat related. As for why he didn't just check it with his abilities, it was simple. Alex is a fallen Lord; she currently had no access to her talent thus it doesn't show on her status.

"So can I join?" Alex asked again but this time with a smile that showed her happiness over her victory, plastered on her face.

"Sure, the goal is to create a Golem…. These things are basically robots…." Kingsley said as he created another Core based on what he observed from the original one.

Kingsley explained all his observation and passed them on to the girl since she was a craft master and it was more important to her. Though he still couldn't believe that she wasn't a combat lord, he simply involved her because crafting was a much better means of dealing with trauma than actual fighting.

Several minutes later, they had both managed to recreate the golem but with a bit more improvements. The golem now stood at a height of about 5.6ft tall and was less bulky than its original design.

It was merely a prototype to see if they could do it but it was even better than they thought, its small size allowed for better mobility and maneuverability. It was still incredibly heavy after all it was still made from rocks.

The newly created Golem was clearly not as strong as the original one he had stolen from the wave but it was of a higher rank. Its health and mana were higher than the original meaning that it may be capable of using its mana unlike the original.

"Not bad for a fallen lord" Kingsley said with a smile as he nudged the shoulder of the young girl beside him

"Why are you happy, it's clearly weaker than the original?" Alex asked confused, this wasn't a thing to celebrate, they had clearly failed

"Because it has more potential and also I can now do this" Kingsley said as he snapped his fingers

As soon as the sound of the snap vanished, a small but incredibly weird mound rose from the earth. From the mound, two thin poles started growing as the 'sand' in the mound was added to the roots of the poles

The poles continued growing but in a weird way. It didn't grow into a straight pole instead it had several ins and outs that made it look misshapen. After a few minutes of waiting, both of them were now standing before a golden skeleton.

"You can appraise it" Kingsley said with a proud smile
