Capítulo 158: Shut it Torben!
Why shouldn't I look into a mirror? Am I not cute?
<You are currently a clay golem and they all look like that unless they have a skill that allows them to remold their physical shape. Should you be wanting to do so, I suggest you do it while being a clay golem as clay is rather easy to form.>
I'm ugly?!!!
<Don't go all dramatic on me now. As I said, get the necessary skill and you can change into whatever you want perfectly. Or if you would rather have us do it we could do so if you provided an image of what you wanted to look like.>
I want to look like myself!
<Yourself as in your human form?>
Yes. Then I'd be super cute!
<Can you wish for something else? A child's body is unpractical for fighting.>
Monica can't be cute? Then Monica wants to be strong and powerful like sister Valeria.
<What about me? I'm strong too. Do you want to look like me too?>
No. I like sister Valeria better.
<Why?!!! She never spends time with you!>
She let me drink the sparkly firewater. It was so delicious and I could see fairies afterward.
<Firewater? What's that? Wait... Fire water, isn't that? She gave you ALCOHOL! Giving alcohol to a minor! How could she ever do that and how did I not see that?!!! I'm going to lecture her for an hour, no two, three? Four hours of lecturing it is!>
Don't be mean to sister Valeria!
<This is necessary for her development into a functioning adult. But that will be a thing for later. Now you got your first mission. Open the map and find the adventurers exploring the dungeon. When you find them, you can just kill them. Edward taught you to fight, right?>
Not really. All I did was just running. The demon said that I should just wing the fighting part. Something about it being a waste of time teaching a child.
<Sounds like Edward to me. Stubborn old man still thinks violence and children shouldn't mix. Does he really think not teaching you will keep you from fighting? Okay, here are the basics. Hit them before they hit you and keep hitting them until they stop moving. You have two punching skills so the rest should come naturally.>
Okay. I'm going to beat up all those bad guys.
I open the map and see myself in a room. Some of the clay figures around me have a green dot others are just gray outlines. A few rooms away I can see red dots moving through a room with no green dots. Why are they so slow?
<Green dots represent clay golems like you. They too will fight the adventurers. The gray outlines are actual clay figures that are purely decorative. But to adventures, you and the real figures look the same so use that to your advantage. Lastly, the adventurers are represented by a red dot each, take them out.>
I move out of the room I'm in and see that the next room also has brick walls with mosaics here and there. The red dots are still in the same room and slowly approach the room adjacent to the one I'm in now.
Time to play hide and seek. I run into that room and stop near the doorway that connects to the hallway the adventurers need to come through.
"Did you hear that? That sounded like a clay golem."
"But the sounds were way too frequent. It would have to be running. Have you ever seen a clay golem run?"
"Then what was it?"
"Maybe a brick fell from someplace high up and hit the wall a few times before landing on the ground?"
"Idiot, no way it sounds like that!"
"Whatever it was, stay vigilant and prepare to fight. Make sure to use your blunt weapons or you'll break your gear against the clay golems tough outer layer."
"Man, not being able to use my sword sucks."
"Shut it, Torben."
They are slowly coming closer. They haven't spotted me yet. I will win this round of hide and seek if this continues.
The group of six adventurers enters the room and cautiously looks around. After seeing no reaction from the clay figures they enter further into the room.
I wait until the last guy walks past me before hitting him as hard as I can into the back. My crude clay arm connects with his left shoulder and he is catapulted forward.
Tag your it!
I turn and run down the hallway the group just came from as fast as I can. I hear the adventurers yell behind me but I just keep running.
"The hell was that?"
"You alright, Torben?"
"I think a golem attacked me from behind. I couldn't see but you heard the sound, right? Did it run away?"
"That looks painful. Let me see your shoulder, it might be broken."
That soft feminine voice! They must have a big sister with them.
"Your arm really is broken. That trashy golem is such a coward for sneak attacking you and then running away. And they are ugly on top of that."
That isn't a big sister! That's another evil witch! Monica must eliminate all evil witches!
"What do we do now? Do we go back the way the golem ran or do we continue?"
"We can't tell the golems from the clay figures so going back won't do us any good. I think we should just go on and hope that there is only one golem like that."
"Are you guys dumb? If we can't tell the golems from the figures we just have to smash them all. Look, like this!"
"Torben! Don't do it!"
A clear smashing sound echoes through the rooms and I feel a strange rage build up within me. How dare they break a helpless clay figure?
It's ugly, sure, but how dare you break it!
I'm going to smash them!
