[Description] An Ego-Golem created by the Omni-Craftsmaster Eisen. Its body has been made out of some of the most durable materials available for this rank, making it near-to-impossible to be damaged by low-level opponents.
It senses the world through pulses of mana that give it a myriad of information that is retained for as long as possible.
This Golem is capable of making use of different martial-arts, weapons, and techniques to fend off enemies.

With a broad smile on his face, Eisen looked at the Golem and made it stand up. Luckily, most likely due to the high amount of Combat-Mastery skills, it had a pretty good innate control of its body and was able to stand up immediately without the initial period of ’wonkiness’ that other golems usually had.
"Hmm, good." Eisen muttered quietly before just stretching a bit, "This one seems to be doing pretty well, huh?" The old man said with a light smirk and turned toward the others who were all curiously staring at the Golem’s body.
"Go ahead everyone, take a look." Eisen chuckled before they immediately did as told and properly checked everything out.
Meanwhile, Eisen was focusing on something else that he was more than glad to see. And that was that his Multitool’s level hit the maximum of rank 5, so Eisen would be able to upgrade it again now. It was a long time coming, to be perfectly honest. After all, his Sword had made it pretty close to that range as well during the time that Eisen was just out there hunting.
The same counted for the three monster children, all three of them passed level 70 for rank 5. With a satisfied expression, the old man figured that it would be a good idea to get started with this before moving on and making more of this Bodyguard golem, even if those would be ’lesser’ versions. Eisen couldn’t waste such materials that much right now, after all. Maybe once his material growth skill ranked up some more, but not right now.
The rest of those really high-tier defensive materials that were infused with Eisen’s special mythril that by now hit rank 6 in its material rank would be used to make equipment for the others for when they were headed to the Giant Country.
"Holy mother of- What actually is this cloth?" Folmirra then exclaimed, since she seemed to be noticing the ’repelling’ effect that Eisen’s mythril put onto it just by touching it, "It’s like it’s pushing me away!" She pointed out, and Eisen lightly shrugged.
"Basically, it is like that." He pointed out and just chose to grab a small mana crystal out of one of his apron’s pockets, "You four, step a bit to the side." The old man suggested, and curiously everyone did as he said before Eisen just threw the mana crystal at the Golem’s chest with a fair amount of force behind it, but the mana-crystal simply bounced off nearly at the same speed that it hit it in the first place.
"It’s because of my special mythril. Pretty cool, huh?" The old man pointed out as he went to pick the mana crystal up again before noticing that the others were looking at him with hopeful eyes.
With a slight sigh and wry smile, the old man pointed over toward the corner of the room, "I have a bunch of it over there, and I’m growing some Mythril Trees right now as well. Use whatever you want. Folmirra, if you want to try that, I have a setup over there so that you can turn different materials into thread, and then from thread into cloth. And it acts like actual cloth, so no matter what material you use, you’ll be able to work with it using your tailoring skill." Eisen pointed out, and then looked at some of the other setups around here.
"Then there’s the mass-production setup for potions, the leather-tanning station where I make leather using some different potions as a base to give it special effects, and of course there’s the alloying and melting-station so that you can easily turn any ore into an ingot, and then that ingot into an alloy." The old man explained, and everyone seemed more than just excited over this.
"And... And we can really just use this place however we like?" Jekyll asked with a light grin on his face, before Eisen just once more nodded his head, "Of course. Act like you’re at home." He told them as Eisen stepped over toward one of the shelves placed up against the wall before taking out a small orb.
"But I suggest you do that in the morning. There’s no real rush, after all." Eisen pointed out and then brought the orb over toward the table that he made with his element before, while everyone slowy nodded their heads despite still staring at what Eisen was holding in his hands.
"You guys alright? Not tired yet or anything?" Eisen asked, "Even I’m tired, and I barely feel that over here." The old man pointed out, but the four of them immediately denied that they were tired in the slightest, like children would, and Eisen simply shrugged and let them continue watching him while Eisen chose to upgrade the Ego Multitool.
The old man took it apart first and placed all of the different parts down on the table seperately, before Eisen cracked the orb open and pulled the soul that was inside of it out. He separated the nucleus from the rest of the soul and placed it to the side while Eisen started working with the mist-like substance that stuck together like one wouldn’t really expect it to. It was like a really, really light cotton.
The old man slowly started rubbing that mist-like substance on the different parts of the multitool and practically fused it into the soul that was already integrated into the item.
Once this step was done, Eisen held the part that had the Tool Core placed into it up and made a small hole into the crystal without hitting any of the enchantments. Using alchemical compression, Eisen slightly shrunk the soul nucleus down and pushed it through that hole to bring it into the center of the core.
After that he simply fused the two souls together a bit and then had to just use this for a little while to get it done. That, or he could feed it a bunch of mana crystals to get that done more quickly. Eisen thought it was a little bit wasteful, because the rank-6 mana crystals he would be needing for that to actually make it worth it were still comparatively hard to come by. Rank 7 was the ’soft cap’ for the monsters on this continent after all. Meaning that most reached their limit when they reached rank 7, even if there were a few exceptions in some parts of the continent.
Either way, this made the rank-6 and above mana crystals really hard to come by sometimes, even if Eisen had some of the best sources anyone could hope for at the moment. Eisen put the multitool back together and just swung it a few times. Right now it didn’t react that much yet, meaning that its ego was basically put out of comission, like it usually was whenever Eisen just upgraded it. Eisen figured that it was just trying to ’concentrate’ on integrating the new soul into itself.
Once he made sure that everything was working alright for now, Eisen simply looked at the others with a light smile, "Well, I’m heading to bed now. You should do the same." He pointed out, and despite seeming a little bit disappointed, the other four nodded their heads and amde their way out of the room to get to their own bedrooms here, joining their spouses. Everyone but Morrom, at least, he just slept in his own room alone.
And Eisen himself just turned around again and sat down in the corner of the room where he wouldn’t be bothering anyone if it should take him longer than expected to wake up again, before slowly logging off.

Benjamin stood up out of the capsule and stretched a bit. The right side of his neck felt pretty stiff for a while, but that was most likely because he wasn’t able to stretch that side of his shoulders that easily anymore... It was a bit annoying, but he could live with it.
The old man made his way out of his room and wanted to open the door to the bathroom just on the other side, although he soon noticed that it was occupied.
"Sorry! I’ll be right out!" Nataly exclaimed from in there while Benjamin just let go of the doorhandle and leaned against the wall behind him. A few moments later, the young woman stepped out of the bathroom with a light smile on her face.
"Yo." She said with a light wave of her hand, and the old man chuckled and looked at her as he stepped into the bathroom to clean his face, "You’re going outside with Benji now, right?" The old man asked, and Nataly immediately nodded her head.
"Yeah, we didn’t really go out that much on this side because of the whole ’a guy we really trusted turned out to want to kill us’ situation, but we got Brody to act as a bodyguard for us today. He wanted to go out and buy some things as well. So we feel pretty safe." Nataly pointed out, so Benjamin lightly nodded his head and dried his face.
"I see. Then have a fun day, you three. And try not to pull too much attention toward you."
"Haha, don’t worry, we’ve got that handled."
