Seeing Caesar's serious expression, Selene and Elevseria also became nervous.
"If it is a product of alchemy, then it must be closely linked to alchemy."
Caesar looked at Elevseria and asked how many alchemy guilds existed on the continent of Giltina.
"More than a hundred."
Elevseria thought for a moment before answering.
"And the strongest one."
Caesar spoke calmly.
He was very clear about Fairy Tail's path.
They would never fight low level enemies.
If Fairy Tail moved, it would be against the strongest opponents.
After a brief silence, Elevseria spoke again.
"If we are talking about the strongest alchemy guild, then it is the Golden Owl."
Caesar nodded.
"Then we have our goal."
They would find the Golden Owl Guild and investigate.
Caesar did not believe the strongest guild had nothing to do with this matter.
After learning from Elevseria that the Golden Owl was located in Philanthroth City in southeastern Giltina, Caesar prepared to leave.
With the Golden Dragon already dealt with, Caesar planned to bring reinforcements when facing the Fire Dragon Ignia.
It was only natural for a father to discipline his son.
Whether Ignia could still match his father was unknown.
There was no urgency.
As long as Ignia could not break through his limits, Caesar could defeat him easily.
"Lord Caesar, I will go with you."
Selene followed Caesar out of the Dragon Array.
She clearly intended to remain by his side.
After a moment of thought, Caesar agreed.
Selene's experiences across many worlds were valuable.
With her guidance, Caesar could adapt more quickly.
Selene did not know Caesar's true goal involved the god Ankhseram.
If she knew, she might have hesitated.
Philanthroth City.
A city rich in mineral veins.
Many rare ores were mined here.
For alchemists, it was paradise.
"The alchemy of this world is different from what I know."
Caesar looked at the city brochure in his hand.
"My alchemy is realistic, while this one is closer to magic."
"So what does that mean."
Selene looked at him in confusion.
"We went the wrong way."
Caesar sighed.
After eating at a nearby restaurant, he learned the Golden Owl Guild's exact location from the owner.
It was an extremely luxurious building.
As Caesar and Selene approached, several people stepped out and stopped them.
"Who are you, and why are you here."
"I am also an alchemist."
"I came to exchange techniques."
Caesar took out a piece of charcoal.
With magic, it quickly transformed into a dazzling diamond.
Seeing this, the guild members smiled and led them inside.
Not long after entering, a female mechanical figure with a snow white shell passed by.
She paused slightly while observing them.
"Athena."
Selene stiffened and immediately spoke.
"Lord Caesar, she is Athena."
Caesar was stunned.
They had found Athena immediately.
Athena stopped and slowly turned.
She examined them carefully.
"A terrifying amount of magical power."
"And another presence that cannot be detected."
"If that is the case, are you a dragon."
Athena looked at Selene while smiling.
"Careful."
Selene warned Caesar.
The next instant, Athena's eyes lit up.
Two beams fired toward Selene.
Caesar raised his hand.
The attack was blown away instantly.
The shockwave pierced a hole through the building.
"That is impressive."
"What kind of core can amplify power like that."
Caesar felt interest rise within him.
The creator of Athena was a true genius.
"Alchemy has no effect on you."
Athena attempted another technique.
Caesar remained unaffected.
"Try again."
"Maybe it will work."
Caesar laughed softly.
He wanted to dismantle Athena and study her structure.
If he understood it, mass production might be possible.
A similar construct could even serve as a caretaker.
At that moment, the guild members realized something was wrong.
They surrounded Caesar and Selene.
Selene moved slightly.
All of them fell instantly.
Athena ignored them.
Her focus remained on Selene.
"A dragon must be destroyed."
Athena stepped forward.
"Stop, Athena."
An old man in a sharp suit stepped out.
He wore a trench coat and an eye patch.
His white hair was braided neatly.
Two exaggerated figures stood behind him.
Though human in appearance, they were mechanical puppets.
"Apologies for the delay."
"My name is Duke."
He smiled calmly.
"I am the master of the Golden Owl."
"I was once Elevseria's disciple."
"And I am the alchemist who created Athena."
