Chapter 3: One Of The Big Three
The moment he was called, Alec walked up to the platform where the Orb of Awakening was placed and looked straight at the orb.
But the more he looked, the more he felt lost as he was mesmerized by the dazzling sight of the orb.
"Place your hand on the orb and concentrate on it, The orb will do the rest," the instructor standing there said.
Alec followed the instructor's instructions and placed his hands on the Orb of Awakening. Before he knew it, he felt a cool flow of energy entering his body through his palm, It was at that moment he knew the awakening had begun.
The energy spread to every spot, joint, and place in his body, cleansing him, He even felt a great desire to moan in satisfaction but managed to mumble out a groan instead.
The effect of the energy made him feel as if he had used an elixir to cleanse all the impurities his body had accumulated over the years, The energy then traveled back to his palm and passed back into the Orb of Awakening.

Immediately, the flow of energy passed through his arms and went back into the Orb, which immediately shone brightly with two different elemental attributes: a bright yellow color and a bright red color, both showing a high element affinity.
Another commotion broke out again, but this time it seemed that the fact that Alec awakened two elemental attributes of high affinity caused an even bigger surprise.
Screams and gasps of astonishment could be heard all around, Everyone was shocked and flabbergasted.
After all, they never thought much of the young master of the Gordon family, who was rumored to be a bastard, But now, Alec had just silenced all his haters with this display.
Just like other times when the Grand Elder and the Patriarch came over to restore order whenever a commotion happened, they moved to calm the crowd again.
This time, even the parents of the younger ones waiting in line and other members of the family who were watching joined in the chatter because of the huge shock.
"The family is on the rise," was the topic of conversation as they all talked about the abundance of talent they had this year and the fact that someone they had low expectations for like Alec could be counted become a Dual affinity Mage with both of them being high affinity while most of the mages in the clan were mid-level Earth affinity.
This time, the Patriarch reached Alec first and opened his mouth wide with a smile on his face, clearly proud of Alec's achievement.
"You did well, little boy," said the Grandelder, joining in the praise. "Your potential is truly remarkable."
Alec couldn't help but feel a surge of gratitude and relief wash over him, The support and encouragement from his family meant the world to him, especially from his grandfather.
Their belief in him bolstered his own confidence and determination to become a powerful mage.
As the commotion continued to settle, the Patriarch, still beaming with pride, turned to his brother, the Grand Elder. "Help me out of this one, brother. I have to go," he said, urgency evident in his voice.
The Grand Elder nodded understanding, He knew that his brother was eager to pass on his knowledge and guidance to Alec now that he had awakened his mana joint, Before parting ways, the Patriarch affectionately patted Alec's back.
The Patriarch summoned one of his special golems, a sight Alec had seen many times before, The Patriarch Had three special Golems and he just summoned one of his three prized golems.
The Golem stood at an imposing 6 feet tall, emanating a powerful aura, Its eyes glowed with a bright red light, and its body, crafted from reinforced clay infused with mana, exuded strength.
Gasps could be heard from the crowd as they set their sights on the golem, Reverence filled their eyes as many of them witnessed one of the unique golems that protected the Gordon family, The Patriarch's "Big Three" golems were renowned and revered.
The Golem extended its long arms and gently embraced both Alec and the Patriarch, It then bent slightly, assuming a posture resembling a 90-degree angle, before launching itself into the air with a remarkable force.
Alec was taken aback as he realized they were heading towards his grandfather's backyard, It seemed the unique golem had picked up a limited sense of intelligence or was simply following the old man's commands without question.
Expecting a rough landing due to the golem's speed and power, Alec chuckled to himself, relishing the thought of a playful retribution against his grandfather's showmanship.
However, to his surprise, a spiral force of energy was released from the golem's feet as it descended, gradually slowing down its momentum.
It glided gracefully to the ground, its landing soft and controlled, It seemed as though some form of shock absorber was Installed under it's feets.
