Chapter 20: My Little Golem

Ansgar is still sleeping, Ruter and Spada have gone home and Julia-sama and Taro went to the city to buy something (they refused to tell me what!) so I decided to try out my new skills!

I better do it in the forest so that I don't accidentaly destroy the house or something. I will leave the cabin to you Ansgar-san!

It is much easier to move around in the forest now that my legs are longer. Before it was kinda difficult because my body was supposed to fly, not walk. Speaking of which, I should learn how to fly. It's kinda pathetic for me to not know how to fly...

Uhm! Let's  think of something else!

I have found the perfect spot to train! It's a glade in the middle of the forest with a tiny pond in the middle of it. The glade is also surrouned by bushes and trees, protecting me from curious gazes. Now let's roll the Rocky music!

First up; Quake Stomp! Ok, so in order to activate this skill I just need to stomp. How hard should I stomp? Meh, let's just put everything into it.

1... 2... 3!

Rumble, rumble!

The moment my foot touches the ground everything starts to shake. Tiny waves takes shape on the ponds surface. Tiny waves? Yep, tiny waves. Apparently my Quake Stomp is not that strong... Let's try it again!

---Five minutes later---

My foot hurts... I have been stomping the hardest I can training my Quake Stomp but I can't do it anymore... It feels like my foot is gonna hurt. But at least I leveled it up to level 2! Ouch... I have healing spells but none of them can heal me, just my allies. I need to ask Ansgar to teach me some later.

Next up; Earth Golem! Now this one really excites me! To be able to create my own minion! This way, if I ever gets into a fight, it can fight for me!

Hmmm, it says I can shape it according to my will but let's just create a regular humanoid for now.

...

But how do I create it? Let's just imagine it coming out of the ground... The ground in front of me starts glowing and moving and 20 MP instantly got drained.

Huh!? It worked!?

The ground gathers into one spot and then it starts to change shape. And the result is... Kinda disappointing.

The golem itself looks pretty cool, with it's armor like body, bud the problem is its length; it barely reacher my waist. And when I look closer I can see that tiny cracks already starts to appear on its body.

Well maybe it's not that bad? Let's check its stats. Appraisal!

Name: None

Title: Golem of Ruth

Race: Lesser Earth Golem

Level: 1/5

HP: 7

MP: 2

Vit. 5

Str. 4

Dex. 3

Int. 1

Wis. 1

Char. 3

Luck 10

Exp: 0/100

Ok not the best stats, but what about its abilities?

Earth Punch Lv. 1

Basically it's a regular punch but because the fist is made out of earth it is more powerful. Effectivity rises with Str. and level.

Earth Kick Lv. 1

Basically it's a regular kick but because the leg is made out of earth it is more powerful. Effectivity rises with Str. and level.

Earth Heal Lv. 1

By absorbing the earth around it, the uses can heal 50% of the bodys damages. Costs 2 MP.

... This is just sad. And that is coming from me! I was pretty darn pathetic when I was first born but this... I mean look at that Int., that Wis., it's just...

But there is one thing that's bothering me more than anything else... Its luck. Why is it higher than mine!? Am I really that unlucky?

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

I mean, I think that except me being reincarnated as a bird, getting bullied by my siblings and turning into a swan (kinda)I have been pretty lucky. Just look at me now! I am freaking badass! Then why is my luck so low? That is dumb. And mean. Damn you Creshna!

*sigh* Well, for now, let's just try this guy out. Hmmm... How should I do?

((Uhmm... Hi there?)) I decide to try telepathy or something like that.

... Is it working? Maybe it can't answer me because it's intelligence is so low? But it should be able to understand my commands if they are simple enough, right?Right???

((Uhum! Walk towards me!))

The golem takes a few step towards me. It worked! Ok ok, let's try something else!

((Pick up that twig next to you!))

Golem-san picks up the twig. Yes! This may be good after all!

((Now do a backflip!))

The golem stands still. Ok, so that is to much, I see... But you're still to weak... Ok, I have changed my mind! For the rest of the day I will train you!

((Ok golem-san, punch that tree with Earth Punch!))

The golem turns around, faces the tree and the punches it with all its might. The result? The tree is unharmed and golem-san lost his first.

I could use one of my healing abilities to return the destroyed fist back to its original state but instead I will let golem use Earth Heal on itself so it can gain some Exp., but not just yet.

((Golem! Hit the tree with your other fist!))

The golem does as I say. The result is the same as the first time. Some would let it heal already but while its fists are gone it still has its legs.

((Go golem-san, I know you can do it!))

...

Golem-sans limbs are all destroyed now and it is laying down on the ground, unable to move.

((Ok, golem-san, now use Earth Heal on yourself.))

Golem-san uses heal (and with that all of it's mana). Its limbs start to heal and after about two minutes its legs are back.

Suddenly a screen appears before me.

//You have leveled up Earth Golem creation to level 2 and with that Earth Golem to same said level!//

Heck yeah! That's what I'm talking about! I look at golem-san. It does seem taller now. And most of the cracks are gone too. This makes me really happy.

Golem-san you are the best! Hmmm... Maybe I should start calling you something else? It seems that I can name you according to the stats.

What is a good name? Gno? Nah. Rocky? Nope. Stonie? Stoner? No.

Maybe... Rowan? Hmm... Ok, Rowan it is!

A screen appears again.

//Do you want to name your Earth Golem "Rowan"? Y/N?//

Yes. A ping is heard and another screen covers the first one.

//You have named you Earth Golem Rowan! Thanks to this Rowan have gained one level and minor sentience! You have also gained one level and the title Namer!//

This is interesting! And what does it mean with sentience? Hmmm let's try it out.

((Hi Rowan, do you know who I am?))

"Yes, you are mistress."

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh! This is good, this is really good!

((Tell me who you are.))

"This one, name Rowan, servant of mistress."

That was a pretty blunt answer but I guess that is Ok but I will see so that he gets more intelligent. Hehehe, this is really good. But I need to return home now, Taro and Julia-sama should be home soon.

But where should I put Rowan?

((Rowan, do you know where I can put you for now?))

"Answer, yes. This one can be put in a separate dimension of servants. Mistress must just wish."

((Oh, Ok, thank you!))

But how do I do that? I imagine an empry void and suddenly Rowan disappears.

((H-huh?! Rowan, where are you?))

"This one is in mistress dimenson. Mistress can call me whenever she wants."

Well, then that problem is solved! But now I really need to head back home or Taro will notice I left and he will be really worried.

((Well then Rowan, time to head home!))

"As mistress wish."

...

I probably need to get him to stop calling me mistress, this is getting really awkward...
