Blood poured out of my hand and some clear fluid that became white, forming a disk on the front of the blob of blood. It grew a pair of finger width legs and arms and little cute hand and feet, then a red dot formed in the center of the white disc. Finally, a mouth opened filled with white teeth like some torture device, then it started to make noises, flailing its arms around in the air.
"Herga blerga habsantch bibizalwozzle," The little monster complained, wiggling its little arms and hitting itself.
'Kick him, he does this every time he gets summoned! Hard to or he will want more and make sure it's into a wall.' -Drania.
The thing was just below knee-high, so I kicked hard into the nearest wall and smacked into it with a sickening slurping noise, almost going completely flat. Then it rolled down the wall and into a puddle on the ground and then reformed, throwing its legs out to the side.
"Ta-da! K! Mei! Lesha! None of you know who I am, and I have to keep my mouth shut because that's the rules, but girls! How's it been? Mei, have they been keeping all the food from you? And look it went to your chests as usual! You look like you haven't eaten in a month! I'd let you take a bite out of me, but I think I'm already past due. Oh, and Ladies how is the love life going? Any fun awkward sex stories you wanna tell you good ole buddy, Gobby? No? Anyways, what are we doing today?" Gobby asked in a series of bounces going back and forth from each of us.
"What are you?" Mei asked walking over to the Gobby.
"I'm K's number one servant minion! The strongest and bravest one of them all!" Gobby announced.
"He is pretty cute, how long does he stay around for?" Lesha asked.
"You have me forever! I'm basically indestructible, and I'm good at taking down bad guys! Where is one? Let me at him!" Gobby said while making punching motions.
"Okay, let's go then, I want to see you in action, Gobby," I said, pointing to the next hall after I had picked up the claws that were leftover.
The dungeons always had monsters, and they had some kind of small items that were valuable, but there were also traps. So if this guy could make it through the traps and let them off without dying, that alone would be worth its weight in gold. We would be able to move faster if it worked; I wonder what kind of treats he liked?
"Sure thing Miss K! I'll use the Gobby Trapcuum Cleaner move!"
Gobby ran into the hall and splattered face-first into the ground, and then began to spread out to both walls. His eye was in the middle of the hall and blood connected the walls. Then he started to move up the hallway and set off three traps, so that meant the place was a higher level!
Well, we would just have to see about the next room, but he wasn't kidding about being tough! The floor spike and fire didn't even phase him. Instead, he just kept going like nothing had happened. Once he got to the end, Gobby pulled back together and waved at us jumping into the air.
"Got them! Look! See!"
"K, what is he?" Mei asked with a screwed-up face.
"I don't know, but don't make ugly faces like that. I think he looks cute, and he is a great help so far. I don't know if you've noticed, but the dungeon is at a higher level, so he will make it easy for us. Come on, we still have a ways to go."
Mei shrugged then followed Lesha and me down the hall where Gobby was waiting. There was a stone golem in the center of the next room that looked huge and menacing, so I was curious to see what Gobby could do against something like a ceiling monster that was three hands taller than me.
"Gobby do you think you can fight something like that?"
"That pile of rocks? Piece of cake, look! Watch me, okay?!" Gobby asked as he looked up at me with a hopeful and exciting look.
"Okay, I'm watching."
What was this? Had I just acquired another child? I know you need a man to have one, but I didn't want them, yet I seem to be acquiring them like burrs.
Still, I watched Gobby run over yelling and waving his arms, and the girls came up beside me. The Golem raised a long rock eyebrow and then stepped on Gobby. We all pulled back in revulsion at the splatting noise made by Gobby getting squished under the massive rock foot.
The big stone golem looked at the blood around its foot and then lifted it. The monster started to make a grinding laughing noise that was hard on the ears, but something was happening under his foot. Where Gobby had been smashed into the ground, his mouth and eye were still in the blood and the mouth was getting bigger.
"Oh, so you think you're a funny guy, do you? You like the stone grinding laughs? Try that move again, rock brain!" Gobby called from the puddle.
The Golem didn't stop laughing, but it did stomp down again, but the foot kept going as it had just fallen into a deep hole. The golem had stopped laughing now and was trying to pull itself free, but it was too late. Gobby's mouth was getting bigger until the rest of the struggling golem fell in and was ground up.
Gobby pulled himself together and then burped out a purple gem, catching it in his hands, then running it over to me.
"K! Look! I found a pretty stone for you! Did you see me?! He was all, I'm gonna squish ha ha, but then I was like, not today rock man, I'm gonna eat you! See?! I told you I'm the best!"
