"That's the part you will ask about?"
"Sorry, I mean what does it mean an automaton and also why is it shaped like a human?"
"I think Automaton is the fantasy name for robot and that is because, it is supposed to look human" Kingsley answered as he snapped his fingers resuming the creation.
More and more materials gathered on the skeleton as it slowly started fattening up. Within minutes, the once lean Skeleton was now replaced by an incredibly brown human. Mithril was basically magic silver while Adamantine was magic gold or at least a type of magic gold which resulted in such a color.
"Now I give a true magical robot" Kingsley said in a goofy manner as he made the automaton salute Alex.
He had done more than just create a body for the Automaton, he had also designed a new type of Golem core for it or as the system called it, a [Next-Gen Core]. The core was designed to allow him program a golem as he wanted, basically he created a type of hardware that could accept all sorts of software.
The goal was so that he could have Golems of all types, from fighter jet-shaped golems to helicopter-shaped golems. His main purpose for a golem wasn't to create an army or at least it was no longer his aim, it was now to create transportation for his soldiers through the forest and over long distances.
"I doubt you need more soldiers" Alex said
"No, but I need transportation, the good thing about golems is that their shape doesn't matter, they can still function as intended" Kingsley said as he made the automaton punch the rock golem behind it
Obeying his orders, the automaton matched towards the Rock Golem and launched it's fist forwards with such speed and strength that it left a hole in the area of impact. The new automation was freakishly strong but Alex felt it was nothing compared to the Demon Goblins that had lifted said golems and simply slammed them into the ground, just to disable them.
"Making a series of these into soldiers would truly be interesting but I don't want to risk the existence of an A.I robot in a fantasy world" Kingsley said as he dissolved the automaton
"Then how exactly do you wan...."

ANNOUNCEMENT!!

The first event on [Deus] has come to an end, releasing the first ranking of Lords. Congratulations to all Lord's in the first ten.
Note: Governors who performed well shall be given the standard prizes
...
A regional announcement was made interrupting Alex in the middle of her sentence, Kingsley was extremely shocked to find that the eave had ended this quickly. He didn't know if this was because the other Lord's had all died or if they had just gotten stronger.
"That's surprising, I thought the Event wouldn't end until tomorrow" Kingsley commented as a massive grin appeared on his face
"What does it mean by first event, does that mean there would be others?" Alex asked as she turned to Kingsley only to see him smiling as clear I'll intent radiated from his body.
She could feel that it wasn't directed at her but to somewhere else and based on what she knew about Kingsley, she could understand what his smile meant. Kingsley was a man who had spent the past two weeks gathering thousands of Goblins and other creatures just in preparation for this moment. His smile simply meant that it was time for the world to enter chaos.
"Give me your word that you will help me get my revenge before you begin your quest" Alex demanded
"Little girl, your revenge will be yours as soon as we find your territory. Now I need to prepare my ar….."

Survivor's Ranking for Glory
Event: Beast Tide
Duration: Seven (7) days
Lord Kingsley Seth: 2,000,000 Points
Lord Li Ye: 500,000 points
Lord Andrew Fisher: 489,760 points
....
An incredibly long list of names appeared in the sky showing the ranking of the Lords who survived. Kingsley wasn't surprised that his name was at the top after all in this region, he was probably the only one who could go troop shopping while the others were fighting for their lives.
He didn't understand the part about the points though so he just assumed it had to do with how fast he cleared a wave and how many monsters he killed or something. If it was that then, he deserved even more points for recruiting even from the wave itself.
"There shouldn't be anything more audacious than that….right?" Kingsley thought to himself
"How did you out rank the entire list with so much points" Alex asked
"I don't know, I don't care… I have much more important things to take care of" Kingsley said as he floated up into the air
He couldn't lie, he was enjoying his powers. Yes, they did bring him the restriction that he couldn't leave his territory but why would he want to leave his territory when he was God within its boundary. He could fly as he wished and as at when he wished to do so, even Viktor had to take breaks to replenish his mana while flying.
....
Congratulations to Lord [Kingsley] for being the top ranker on the List. Due to certain restrictions placed on Lord [Kingsley], most rewards have been withdrawn.
Rewards:
A chance to name your Territory
One-time consumable item
...
The system's voice rang again and almost instantly Kingsley turned back as a large smile appeared on his face. This system was finally rewarding him with something other than more restrictions so he was naturally even more excited.
"Finally!!" Kingsley shouted like a child on Christmas morning as a small piece of paper appeared in his hands due to his lack of an inventory.
"Eh?!..." a sharp sound rose from Kingsley as he examined the small paper
"Pfft!" Alex tried to muffle her laughter but it wasn't working
"Alex, cover your ears" Kingsley said in a serious tone so Alex did as she was told and immediately Kingsley let loose
"You f**king a**licking c**nt of a system...!!!!" Kingsley shouted waving and gesturing at the sky
No matter what one said, this was just next level betrayal. How does one give a person hope then crush it to lower hell in the same move. It was really as though the system was out for him.
...
Congratulation to the Fallen Governor [Alexandria] for being among the top ten. You have received a one-time troop level increase card, a set of A-rank gauntlets and a shield
All rewards have been placed in your inventory.
Note: they can only be accessed when you reclaim your Lord's Territory
....
A second system message came and Kingsley's insults got even louder in anger. He felt like the system was now mocking him. It had given him just a piece of paper but it gave his own governor two A-rank items.
"What sort of nonsense is this even….. oh…oh!, just forget everything I just said, don't mind lesser mortals like me" Kingsley said as he switched from an angry sailor to a cute school boy
"What happened?" Alex asked noticing the oddness of the situation
"See…. I always tell you that the system is fair in everything it does" Kingsley said with a smile as he flashed the small paper in front of her
"Level +2, shit!" Alex cussed in disbelieve
"Shut it, you're still sixteen" Kingsley said as he struck her on the head,
"What was that for?" the girl asked feeling betrayed
"Cussing, didn't your parents tell not to do that?"
"I'm Sixteen, I'm allowed to say shit and besides you were just cussing your heart out, just a few minutes ago" Alex complained only to receive another flick to the head
"I'm above 18, and no one gives that sort of permission" Kingsley said as he giddily floated away like some leprechaun
"Hypocrite!" she called out as she started walking away
The Demon Goblin and High Orc who were watching here tried their hardest to hold their laughter despite the fact that they didn't understand most of what was happening. They both silently followed her as she walked away in defeat.
Meanwhile back inside the main castle, Kingsley who was now sitting calmly on his throne was still looking at the ticket while trying to decide if he should use it on himself or Viktor. An increase in level would add a few more acres of land to him thus increasing his reach but giving it to Viktor means a huge increase in fighting prowess.
...
This is to remind Lord [Kingsley] that you have yet to name your territory in accordance to your reward. Reward expires after two (2) hours
...
"Huh..... Oh!" Kingsley said in realization
"That's easy" Kingsley said as he immediately filled in the name he wanted.
This wasn't something he needed a lot of time to think about, the name was already given to him and it fit perfectly with the ambition he had in mind.
