Now after a long chat, the two resumed their adventure and wandered around the palace that kept moving. Yes, although it was actually Rocky who was walking while Lylah was happily sitting on Rocky's shoulders while continuing to stuff food into her tiny mouth.
"Rocky, do you want some?" she asked, handing him a boiled potato.
Rocky shook his head as he looked around, "I'm a golem, I don't actually eat things"
"hm! right..." said Lylah who had finished stuffing the last piece of potato she was holding and stuffed another under her cloak.
Afterward, she casually played with the wand that now had Rocky's finger tied to it to remodel the magic circle.
Previously they somehow suddenly moved places without realizing it, there was no dizziness, nausea or even itching when they moved.
The location they moved to was also in front of the passage they entered, the passage that led to the flower dome. But this time they no longer found the blue flower that guided them.
Let alone the blue flower, the hallway they came from was unknown as if they were actually dreaming, but the items they brought from that room were still in their possession.
But rather than make a headache Lylah ignored it and invited Rocky to keep walking to continue exploring, although Rocky was actually worried about Lylah's rest time but before they had lost consciousness.
It would be very difficult to get a child like Lylah to go back to sleep when in this state.
"BRAK... BRAK... BRAK..." not long after they walked, there was the sound of heavy footsteps.
From the sound of it the owner must be wearing heavy armor that was now marching, Rocky immediately turned back but Lylah knocked Rocky's head "wait! Why don't we fight back?"
"No! Did you forget the original agreement?" Rocky retorted.
Lylah glanced at the ceiling while holding her chin, her mind trying to remember what Rocky meant.
But after a long try she shook her head, "No! Can't remember!..."
"Bomb! ...." Lylah's answer was immediately greeted with a punch that shattered a nearby wall (although it didn't make a hole or knock the wall down).
Looking at the now destroyed wall Lylah broke out in a cold sweat again, "Glek... ehe, anu, even though I don't remember but you're pretty strong right? Hehehe... I promise! I won't get off your back!"
Rocky stares at Lylah with a flat face (she really can't change her expression, can she?), at which point Lylah pulls out her signature card where she makes her face as funny and sad as possible.
Rocky who hasn't been with her for too long coupled with Lylah's age which is still relatively small makes Rocky's heart melt, he is not as strong as Master Sage when fighting Lylah if she enters her pampering mode.
"haaah... you're this" Rocky said resignedly.
"yeah..." Lylah drew back her fist in acknowledgment of her success.
Rocky heard Lylah's expression of success, he immediately put her on his back and let her hang like before, without suspecting little Lylah did so and hugged Rocky's neck tightly.
But something in her mind warned her to let go of the hug, but on the other hand if she did her body would fall as soon as Rocky fought, "wait, Rocky! Are we forgetting something?".
"No... nothing, just hold on tight" Rocky replied, as soon as he got that answer he realized that he had made a mistake.
"tu..." "dak!.... WUSH" Rocky immediately darted forward until he met four soldiers wearing full armor.
Rocky immediately punched one of them in the chest, it certainly immediately made the chest armor he hit immediately shattered and penetrated to the back.
3 other soldiers immediately took out their swords and slashed at Rocky, but Rocky who was still holding the armor he attacked at the beginning of the fight made it his shield.
As soon as their initial attack was blocked Rocky immediately moved to the side and did an upercut movement on the soldiers nearby, Rocky's punching power at this time was many times stronger so that 1 blow could destroy his opponent's helmet.
Rocky saw one of them approaching him, he immediately did a vertical kick from below that hit his opponent's groin. Not stopping there, the kick instantly destroyed the front armor until it reached the helmet of the poor armor figure.
But a sword slash he felt was coming at him, Rocky swiftly did a backward somersault to get some distance.
After seeing that there was only one opponent left, he immediately advanced and made a chopping motion with his hand. At that moment, Roky's glove changed once again and made a sharp part.
Rocky's hand now immediately became a sword and immediately cut his opponent into 2, at that moment Rocky just realized and looked at his hand whose side had a sharp side like a sword.
But after only a moment he looked, the glove returned to its original state and Rocky could no longer form the sharp side like before, "hmm... it looks like I still can't control this thing"
But at almost the same time, "DANG" a loud sound of iron meeting blunt objects sounded loudly from behind Rocky's back.
He looked back and found a little boy who looked down with a shaking body, Rocky immediately panicked and checked the little boy's head. "Lylah! Lylah, are you okay? Is your head okay?"
Lylah raised her head and she looked at Rocky sharply, seeing that Rocky immediately felt very guilty. But he didn't have time to apologize yet.
"HUAAA... ROCKY... YOU'RE EVIL!... SICK... HUAAAA" Lylah's cries immediately echoed throughout the deserted palace dungeon.
Now Rocky was confused and didn't know what to do because honestly he was inexperienced in handling matters like this, and he did anything to calm Lylah who continued to cry.
It wasn't until a few moments later after Rocky promised to follow whatever Lylah wanted on this exploration without asking that she could be quiet and even more excited, Rocky was even confused about how such a small child could change her expression so quickly.
After Lylah's business is done they now check their loot, what they are fighting (which Rocky is fighting) is a living armor or armor that can move without anyone controlling it.
Initially Lylah forced Rocky to wear the armor that was suitable or fitting for him, but unfortunately the remaining armor that was still intact was nothing that Rocky could wear.
Finally they decided to take the armor that had been destroyed and damaged as a snack, not without reason they did that.
Actually it was Rocky's nosiness who tried to feel the pieces of armor he had defeated when Lylah checked how their work moved, and when Lylah found out she ended up saving the pieces of iron for Rocky's food.
Actually Rocky didn't know what the pieces of iron were for him because he didn't feel anything when eating mana stones or monster crystals, but Lylah still insisted on keeping them because Lylah actually knew that they were controlled by someone.
Lylah could be sure because she felt the thin mana coming out of the armor that was now no longer moving, either the armor contained mana or there was a rope made of transparent mana controlling them.
"Well, where to now?" asked Rocky.
Lylah, who was now sitting sweetly on Rocky's shoulder, pointed to the largest building in the dungeon, "there! Master said it's the main building of the palace! I want to see what the inside of the palace looks like!"
"You know there must be full of guard golems and traps?" replied Rocky while turning to Lylah.
Lylah nodded confidently, "Right! But I'm also trying out our modified magic circle before showing it off to the master!... especially since there's a stone golem with me who's good at fighting, anyway, don't you want to familiarize yourself with your new weapon?"
Rocky could only shake his head and walk into the interior of the palace while carrying a large scythe in his hand, he couldn't refuse Lylah's words this time because of the promise he centered himself on.
------------------------------
In a cave on the wall of a steep ravine, a blaze appeared out of thin air and revealed an old human figure.
It was none other than Master Sage who was now injured, his upper chest which now had a hole in it continued to bleed.
Master Sage sat limply and on the cave wall and took out a fist-sized plant ball, he unhesitatingly inserted the ball into his wound.
Instantly the ball glowed dimly and unraveled and wrapped around Master Sage's injured shoulder like a bandage wrapped around a shoulder, Master Sage's face which had been in pain slowly became calmer and more relaxed.
"hah... hah... hah... Lylah, may you stay safe"
