Create Golem (Skill)

Keima creating a golem.

## Informations

**Create Golem** is a Mid-rank spell. This skill lets the user create Clay Golems and nothing else. Except for Keima. While Keima was summoned to the Lazy Dungeon Master's World he encountered the God of Light who said that he researched something akin to this world's Golems.

**Create Golem** was mainly a spell used for creating golems, obviously enough, but it could be used for construction as well with the right twists. As long as the user didn’t give any special orders, the spell allowed them to freely morph any material around like clay. Very convenient.

## Creation

Two things were necessary to use it: mana, and material to make the golem’s body with. Somehow, Keima just knew that. Knowing instinctively how to use a spell must be one side effect of using a scroll. It seemed that using the ground itself to make Clay Golems was the most simple thing to do. The golem could have its shape changed by mana.

Say the Chant:

*Mass of stone, change your shape and become a servant that obeys my every command. {Create Golem}*

*O, Stones, change form. Become my servants and obey me. Create Golem.*

The mana formed circuits within it and morphed the clay into the shape of a person. Perhaps thanks to the scroll, the image of a perfect golem arose in Keima's mind.

Obeying the instructions that were filling his mind, He kneaded the clay with his hands while pouring more mana into it. It didn’t take long until the clay turned into a (somewhat small) human-shaped golem. (that wouldn't happen with anybody else)

It looked like a robot made in films. Instead of a servomotor moving its joints, though, there was magic. Its body was made of clay instead of plastic and aluminum. Its movements were controlled by an embedded magic circle instead of a CPU. It had a magic stone powering it instead of a battery... The magic power floating around inside the dungeon’s air should be good enough.

### Controlling

The Golems made by the spell would obey their master's every command. It’ll stay active until it runs out of mana. It’s a golem. But dungeons are filled with mana, so it basically should never stop as long as it’s inside of one. If they leave the dungeon territory they could last one hour but it depended on the magic stone inside of them. Any orders previously given would be preserved even after they ran out of mana.

If you think about it, “dig into the mountain” is a pretty complicated order on its own. To make a robot in modern Japan do something like that, you’d need to first teach it how to mine a wall in the first place from the ground up. Not only that, but telling them “go here” wouldn’t work. You’d have to tell them exactly how many steps to take, and even how to move their legs. They wouldn’t stand up on their own if they fell over, and if they hit a wall on the way there, they’d keep walking into the wall forever. But with magic, all I had to do was say “Go here and mine into the wall.” Golems were amazing.
