Death… And Me

Chapter 1257 - Waking Up The Guardian Beast

That made a lot more sense in Roan's head. "That's fine. However, wouldn't it be bad if someone else other than you find out that Kentucky is a Divine Demon Beast? You said it yourself. Divine Demon Beasts are very rare."

Etherian nodded. "In normal circumstances, yeah. But you have me, so there's no need to worry."

With that resolved, Roan went to the Beast Taming Hall to fetch Kentucky. 'Come on, I got the pass to see the Guardian Beast.' Roan also took the chance to explain what he heard from Etherian.

Kentucky, obviously, answered back with Divine Sense. 'Oh, really? Well, I don't know if I can make the guy wake up, but we'll see.'

Rean was also informed through the Soul Connection, but as he was busy, he just let Roan and Kentucky go ahead.

Roan and Kentucky met Etherian back at his home. From there, Etherian took flight and guided them through the skies, heading to the Sacred Land's center. There were several formations along the way that one needed the authority to pass through. Obviously, such a thing wasn't a problem for Etherian with his high status.

Eventually, they arrived in front of an enormous building. Kentucky hadn't seen the demon beast yet, but just its aura alone made Kentucky feel a chill on his back. 'This guy is crazy strong. The Divine Demon Beasts in the Zasfins' planet can't hold a candle to it.'

Roan, on the other hand, could only hear a loud snore. 'Seems like you two have something in common, though.'

Kentucky pretended he didn't hear anything as they entered the place. It turns out that the entire area was made for the Guardian Beast alone. There were no such things as corridors, rooms, and so on. Once they entered the building, they were already in front of the Guardian Beast.

The two looked far away and could see the enormous guy sleep while snoring continuously. "Is that... some kind of golem?"

Etherian nodded as he explained, "He sure is. More specifically, he's part of the Diamond Golem race, a type of Divine Demon Beast that rarely appears between the Earth Golems. Of course, Earth Golems aren't Divine Demon Beasts. Only the Diamond Golems are."

Etherian then looked at Roan and Kentucky, telling them, "No one will bother you, so you can go ahead and see if you can make it wake up. I don't have much hope, though."

Roan shrugged his shoulders in response. This time, even he felt that he might not be able to wake it up with his Dark Element. After all, a golem's body was mostly 'dead' in a sense. Unless he could reach the core, he wouldn't be able to cause it any pain. 'Well, I wasn't planning to wake it up in such a way anyway.'

Roan then looked at Kentucky and told him, "It's up to you."

"Even if you say that, I'm not really sure how I would wake this guy up. Even I don't have as much defense as him," Kentucky could not help but say in response.

Kentucky then flew in front of the golem, hoping that his own Divine Demon Beast bloodline would cause some reaction to the golem. But then again, golems don't really have a 'bloodline' to start with. He wasn't sure if the golem would be able to feel his presence.

*Snore...*

*Snore...*

*Snore...*

Sure enough, it was as if Kentucky didn't even exist. Kentucky then flew up and landed on the gigantic golem's back. Only then did he notice that two more cultivators seemed to be observing him from a little far away. "Who are those guys?"

Etherian landed on Kentucky's side a second later, bringing Roan with him. "The Sacred Land Leader and the Vice Leader. They also want to talk with the Guardian Beast. Don't worry, I already got a word with them."

Roan and Kentucky were surprised to hear that and looked at the two guys. It was the first time they had seen the Land Master. However, the other party didn't seem to care much about their presence.

"So, how is it? Can you make it wake up, Kentucky?" Etherian asked.

Kentucky came back to himself and looked at the Diamond Golem below him. It was then that Roan recognized the look on Kentucky's face. "Are Diamond Golems... tasty?"

Kentucky was taken aback for a moment. Indeed, the look on his face was the same one when he felt the presence of a rare material for him to eat. "Ahem... his body does look very tasty."

Etheiran's mouth twitched after hearing that. "You're not planning to eat him, right? First of all, can you even take any part off his body with your cultivation?"

*Chomp!*

As fast as lighting, Kentucky's head moved and ripped off a big chunk of the Diamond Golem's body. Well, considering the Diamond Golem's total size, the chuck Kentucky took from him couldn't even be considered a mosquito bite. "Seems like I can. Delicious!"

Although Etherian was shocked that Kentucky could really take a part off the golem's body, Roan didn't find it strange. Kentucky had always been able to cause damage to metals far above his own level with his beak. That was simply a trait of his race.

Kentucky swallowed the golem's piece and looked below himself with a hungry expression. "How can he be so tasty? Let's take a few more pieces."

Naturally, Etherian immediately moved to stop him. He couldn't let Kentucky eat the Diamond Golem's entire body, right? However...

*Rumble!*

It was then that the enormous body began to move as the aura of the Diamond Golem increased. Eventually, an extremely loud voice, capable of reaching the entire Sacred Land, echoed.

"Who dares to cause trouble in my Sacred Land?!"

That voice was amplified by Divine Sense, making everyone in the Sacred Land look in his direction, not knowing what was happening.

Etherian quickly enveloped Roan and Kentucky in his Divine Energy and got away from the Diamond Golem. He truly didn't expect it would wake up. "I don't understand this. The damage Kentucky caused was ridiculously small, so how did he wake up?"

Kentucky laughed in response.. "Hahaha! That's the perfect way of waking a demon beast up, the fear of being eaten by another demon beast."
