Reincarnated As The Hero’s Daughter: Wait, Why Is My MP Not Running Out?

-----

Small golems made of rusty iron and bronze greeted our sight. They looked very strange, much different than any "wild" golem we've ever seen before. They looked almost too refined, yet at the same time decayed by nature's grip over their own bodies, something that usually doesn't happen with normal golems to such an extent, as they can maintain themselves with their own internal mana.

I don't know how they did it, but they somehow teleported us all the way here, to some sort of series of caves, which were supported by large pillars made of combined metal scraps. There was also a small house in the distance, also made of rusty metal pieces.

"W-What the hell is going on?!" Aquarina quickly stood up, standing in front of me and unsheathing her two daggers. "Who are these guys?!"

"Weird…"

"Strange."

"You are not friend? Slimy friend…"

"Error? Teleportation device malfunction?"

"Strange…"

The group of little golems started speaking, no less! With strange and metallic, yet loud and gentle voices. Their "eyes" made of glass, glowed with bright blue light as they spoke. They looked at one another with their very spherical heads, cube-like bodies, and with long, tube-like arms and legs. They seemed very rudimentary in design alone.

"Are they golems that can speak?" I wondered.

"Looks like we got inside some sort of dungeon then." Aquarina said. "We better get rid of them quickly." As she said that, she pointed her daggers at the golems.

"Eep!"

"No, don't hurt me!"

"I don't want to die!"

"R-Run!"

However, the golems, instead of acting like they usually did, ran away after seeing Aquarina pointing her daggers at them! She tried to chase them down but I caught her and stopped her.

"Hey where are you going?! Sylphy, why are you stopping me? They brought us here!"

"Calm down for a bit! Don't be so reckless. If they're running away, there is literally no point in fighting them."

"T-That's… Well, I guess."

"Huh? Where am I?" Pyuku finally woke up from the daze he got from being teleported, slowly reforming back his appearance, he resembled just blue water splattered over the floor before. "This is… some sort of ancient cave? Did that tree teleported us here?"

"Looks to be the case." I said, looking around. "The ceiling…"

I looked at the ceiling to find something slightly unnerving. That tree's branches, glowing like crystals, were all spread across the stony ceiling. And stuck to them were the decaying, rusty bodies of many golems similar to the ones we just saw. I noticed the tree generated a strong electromagnetic field. Did it use that power to teleport us down here?

"But who could have ever brought us here? And why?" Wondered Pyuku. "Where are my brethren though? I am sure I sensed them- Wait, they're here… A few kilometers from this place."

"Are they safe?" I wondered.

"Hmm… They're healthy but tired, exhausted even." Said Pyuku. "It feels like they're being constantly forced to… exercise? Or something."

"What? That's odd…" I muttered. "Anyways, we should quickly try to find a way back to the surface first to meet with everyone else. I am worried they might get worried."

"Well, I'm sure they aren't that scared, we are very strong compared to the first time we ever got teleported somewhere else." Aquarina said. "Remember that time with the skull guy?"

"Aquarina you talk so casually about such a traumatic experience, let's not remember him if possible." I sighed.

"I-I mean, yeah, you're not wrong… Sorry." Aquarina sighed. "I guess I am slightly agitated today. I shouldn't have tried to jump on those little guys."

"Well, it's fine. You were just scared and confused." I smiled, giving her a head pat. "Now, where could they have gone to?"

"Little guys?" Wondered Pyuku. "Did you find some of the slimes?"

"No, they were like… Small, almost cute metallic golems. They looked all rusty and talked with soft yet metallic voices." I said. "I could detect faint amounts of Mana inside of them, but they were mostly working using a different type of energy."

"How odd… I've never seen these golems before." Pyuku said. "Do you know anything about them?"

"Hmm, well, they remind me slightly of the golems I once fought back in that dungeon, where I found Nephilim." I said. "Ah, talking about Nephilim, I should bring her along."

I summoned Nephilim by my side, she was slightly surprised, as she had been with my family's party a few seconds ago. She was relieved to see we were alright though."Oh, you're all fine! This is a relief." She sighed. "Your mother and your father panicked quite a bit, master Sylphy! Can you answer your mother's telepathy messages? She has been constantly trying to call for you."

"Oh, it seems I know why they weren't getting here then…" I sighed, looking up. "That tree is creating some sort of barrier, an anti-magic barrier of sorts? It is strange though, as it is not exactly fueled by magic either. Something else, like… electricity and magnetism?"

"Those fuels… It reminds me of the fuels used for the technology of those memories I had." Nephilim said. "Before Mana was discovered, humans… before the gods… Ugh!" Before she could say anoyher word, she had a strong headache.

"Calm down, don't force yourself to remember if you can't." I hugged her, patting her head and calming her down.

"S-Sorry…" She sighed. "At the very least, now that I am here, let me be of some use."

"Of course, stick with us and lets explore the place." I smiled, gently holding her delicate-looking hands, despite being very tough and strong.

"Master, you're so kind." She smiled gently.

"It is the least I could do for my friend." I giggled.

"Huh, is that so?" Aquarina groaned behind us. We felt her powerful jealous aura.

"A-Aquarina, enough with that aura already…" I sighed. "Now, let's get moving. I think the golems went that way? Over the rusty houses made of scraps."

"They live in houses? These must be the weirdest golems ever." Aquarina said.

"Golems?" Nephilim was confused, so as we went to look for them, we explained her what happened.
