Reinhardt led them out of the topmost floor and into the wide open area outside the Mall building. This separate place was left empty so that nobles and citizens could park their carriages here.
"Sir Reinhardt, why did you bring us here?"
He did not explain and instead smiled mysteriously. When Eleanor came to him to discuss the matter related to the establishment, she mentioned the need for guards who were absolutely loyal and could be trusted to keep everything a secret.
At that time, something appropriate and catering to their situation popped up in his mind. The reason why he brought all of them out was that the skill he was about to show them cannot be used indoors.
If he did, it would break the high quality interiors and ambience they had created inside.
With a grin playing at his lips, Reinhardt extended his hands and called out-
"[Divine Beast Summoning] Mid Tier- Terra Wardens".
As soon as his words fell, the ground around the empty ground cracked. A large fissure ran through the place, and from the gaps shone a golden light.
"Rise, O Guardians of Sacred Stone".
At his invocation, the entire place started shaking as if a mini earthquake was going on.
BANG... Soon, large swathes of ground was uprooted, and through it appeared what looked like golems at a glance.
Around 3-4 meters tall, these constructs were carved from marble like stone with veins of glowing holy energy pulsing through their bodies. They had shield-like arms and blunt stone fists that boasted incredible defence and offensive power.
"Stand in line." At his mands, the golems’ eyes lit up, and they organized themselves in a line.
At a glance, there were more than fifty of them. Seeing this, Reinhardt nodded his head in approval. The next second, his eyes lit up with golden light as he inspected them.
"T-This is...? Sir Reinhardt, what are they?"
Eleanor questioned, stepping closer to him as if intimidated by the sudden appearance of these golems.
Positioned in perfect formation and forged with dark metallic stones with intricate gear work on their bodies and glowing eyes, they radiated a silent, menacing power that would no doubt intimidate anyone if they looked at them for the first time.
It was not just Eleanor, Melissa, and the others were similarly scared by the sudden emergence of the golem that appeared through tearing the ground.
They all huddled near him.
"Don’t worry, they won’t harm anyone. In fact, they are here to protect you all and this place".
At those words of his, all the ladies looked at him, their eyes blinking in a manner as if asking what did he mean?
"Didn’t you want guards to protect the place from any miscreants trying to create trouble? There are no better guards than these Terra Wardens here. Not only are they the most loyal, following all your mands, but they are also capable of keeping any secrets and will never open their mouth. Their loyalty cannot be bought either".
Reinhardt answered. This is what he thought of when Eleanor came to him with that request all those days ago.
Hm? Seeing that the women were still huddled behind him, looking at the golems with caution, he called one of them over.
BANG... BANG... The golem approached, its sheer size and build a little menacing.
Possessing a body that was forged by a god, Reinhardt was quite tall; however, in front of the golem, even he looked small. That said, when paring presence, the latter did not even e close.
"Kneel" He simply gave a mand. The next second, the golem knelt on one knee, bowing its head.
"See, there is nothing to fear. Although I know seeing them for the first time can be quite intimidating; however, once you get used to them, you will feel like they are quite useful".
The Terra Wardens that he summoned were more like a support unit rather than weapons of war. Their purpose was to assist, hold lines, protect civilians, and aid Reinhardt in sieging or defensive warfare.
Outside of the battlefield, they can also be used as laborers, humble constructs that were accidentally created, a little intimidating.
At his insistence, the ladies seemed to have finally relaxed and found some confidence as they touched and observed the construct. Now that they were looking at it closely, they didn’t look that intimidating.
In fact, their face, which were a little roundish and dull looking, could be said to be even cute in a way.
"Will they really protect us?" The girls questioned.
"We will protect... Master’s mand... ultimate".
The one to answer them was not him but the golems. All the girls looked at the construct with shock once again.
"They can even speak?"
Well of course they can, they are middle tier summons after all.
"Terra Wardens. From now only protect this place and the girls. Listen to their orders and do your duty," Reinhardt manded.
"Understood," All the golems spoke in unison.
"Amazing, I have never seen a skill like this even in the capital".
Madam Lily spoke her honest thoughts.
"You are right, these golems are the most loyal guards as their loyalties cannot be bought. However, can they really protect the place? Although they do look big, you should know that the ones who visit a high class establishment like these, often bring powerful subordinates along for protection. There are quite a few high level adventurers among them".
"About that, you don’t have to worry." Saying that, he snapped his fingers and manded the golems.
"You and you there, put up a fight. Show us the powers of a Terra Warden".
At his mand, the two golems who were pointed out walked towards the middle of the empty space and started battling.
Their fight was fierce and impactful. Every time they swung their fists, a deep rumble would echo, the ground would cave in, and trees would be smashed into splinters by their sheer power.
What’s more, their metallic stone like body made it so that they boasted incredible defence.
