This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

In the dimly lit living room, Lyon observed the slumbering figures of his companions, each person's unique personality reflected in the way they slept.

Cecile, the strategist and general of the group, slept with the poise and grace befitting an empress. Her regal demeanor was evident even in repose, a testament to the discipline that guided her every action.

Selena, renowned for her swordsmanship, lay in peaceful slumber, her calmness echoing the serenity of a placid lake undisturbed by the chaos of the waking world.

Kesya, perhaps the most carefree, emitted loud snores, completely unfazed by the intricacies of her surroundings or the intricacies of their adventures.

Karina, the curious observer, and unyielding fighter, found rest beside Kesya, her dreams likely filled with the mysteries she sought to unravel during waking hours.

Liu, ever devoted, remained alert even in his rest, positioned near the entrance as if standing guard over his sleeping companions. His serene expression masked the turmoil of emotions and loyalty that Lyon had come to appreciate.

As Lyon navigated through this peculiar assortment of sleeping positions, a sense of warmth and camaraderie enveloped the room. Despite the differences in their backgrounds and races, they had become a close-knit group, bound by shared experiences and the unspoken understanding of their common goals.

Lyon got up from the comfy seat and stretched, the moon was adorning the night beautifully as he peeked through the windows. He looked down a bit and noticed the serene little town of the golem. He took a deep breath before letting out a smile.

Lyon explored the abode with silent footsteps, taking in the magical ambiance that Harvestasya's sanctuary exuded. The moonlight filtered through the windows, casting a gentle glow on the artifacts adorning the walls. Ancient tapestries, woven with threads that seemed to shimmer with unseen enchantments, told stories of times long past.

As he moved through the living spaces, Lyon discovered rooms filled with mystical artifacts, each seemingly carrying its own history. The air was thick with the scent of anti-mana and mana, creating an almost ethereal atmosphere that stirred his senses.

In one room, Lyon came across an exquisite library filled with books that seemed to hum with knowledge. Ancient tomes, bound in materials unknown to the mortal realm, lined the shelves, promising secrets waiting to be unveiled. The room itself emanated an aura of quiet wisdom, inviting Lyon to delve into the mysteries within.

Continuing his exploration, he found a room adorned with vibrant tapestries depicting celestial landscapes and realms unseen. The colors danced in the moonlight, creating an illusion of moving pictures that captivated Lyon's attention. It was as if the very fabric of reality had been woven into these intricate designs.

The abode resonated with a soothing melody, and Lyon eventually discovered the source – a room adorned with musical instruments of otherworldly craftsmanship. The air seemed to hum with an enchanting tune that resonated with the celestial and the arcane.

Liu, the ever-loyal disciple, joined Lyon in front of the majestic statue. Its lifelike features seemed to capture the essence of Harvestasya, a woman shrouded in mystery yet exuding an air of enchantment.

"The beautiful cat with insatiable curiosity," Liu remarked, his eyes studying the intricate details of the statue.

Lyon glanced at Liu, a hint of amusement playing on his lips. "Oh, those cat ears are real?" Lyon inquired, noticing Liu's distinctive feline characteristics.

"Y-Yeah, what of it?" Liu responded with a touch of defensiveness in his voice.

"Nah... nothing," Lyon chuckled, shaking his head. The interaction highlighted the unique bond between master and disciple, transcending the realms of magic and mystery.

"Hmm, interesting, an intruder in my abode in Golem City..." echoed a mysterious voice, instantly putting Lyon and Liu on high alert. Liu, ever the vigilant disciple, moved closer to Lyon, his sharp eyes scanning the surroundings for any potential threats.

"To pierce through Golem City, a capable master, yet with a wicked heart," the echoing voice continued, creating an air of intrigue and mystique. Lyon and Liu exchanged glances, their senses attuned to the unfolding mystery.

The statue, once motionless, began to move. Its head turned, and its eyes lit with an otherworldly glow as its lips started to articulate words. Stepping down from its pedestal, the statue transformed into an animated figure, challenging the notion of a mere decorative piece.

Lyon, maintaining his composure, nodded in acknowledgment at the unfolding spectacle. "A hidden boss..?" he mused, recognizing the unexpected turn of events.

"Hmm? Harvestasya? You turned into stone?!" Liu exclaimed, his surprise evident in his tone. The revelation added another layer to the enigma surrounding Harvestasya, turning the encounter into a cryptic encounter with the unexpected.

"Hmm.. that stupid statement... Liu is that you?!" echoed the stone figure, its eerie presence fading in an instant.

Liu straightened his back with a hint of embarrassment. "I am."

"You're sane again!? Man, I never thought that falling headfirst onto a rock would cure you, but hey, welcome back!" the animated statue put its hand around its waist, the banter suggesting a peculiar familiarity between Liu and the enigmatic Harvestasya.

Black lines appeared across Liu's forehead as his lips twitched once more. "I appreciate the welcome, but I'm not sure if 'sane' is the right word for me," he retorted, his tone carrying a mix of annoyance and amusement.

Harvestasya chuckled, her stony form emanating an otherworldly glow. "Always the humble one, Liu. I see you brought some company. Who's this fine gentleman?" She turned her attention to Lyon, who had been observing the exchange with a smile.

Liu's surprise was evident as he heard Harvestasya's admission. "Harvestasya, you can't see?"

"W-Well... this stone is still a prototype," Harvestasya explained with a hint of embarrassment.

Lyon, however, seemed unperturbed by the revelation. "Oh..."

The stone statue remained silent for a moment before Lyon, seemingly unfazed, casually asked, "Where are you, Tasya?" The use of the nickname was surprisingly natural, even to Lyon himself.

The statue fell into a contemplative silence, and a mysterious atmosphere enveloped the room. The magical ambiance of Golem City seemed to intensify as if responding to Lyon's unexpected familiarity with Harvestasya.

Harvestasya's voice echoed through the chamber, a mix of astonishment, joy, and relief. "M-M-M-M-M-Master..." Her words stumbled, the cracks in her voice revealing the depth of her emotions. The stone statue, animated by an unexpected surge of vitality, moved forward with an almost childlike eagerness. It extended its stony arms, attempting to embrace Lyon in a hug that seemed more clumsy than affectionate.

Lyon, caught off guard by the sudden display of emotion from the stone manifestation, couldn't help but feel a strange mixture of emotions. It was both humorous and heartwarming, and he couldn't suppress a chuckle as the statue tried its best to convey a hug. The stony appendages did their best to encircle Lyon, and despite the lack of softness, the sentiment was undeniable.

As Lyon found himself lifted from the floor within the embrace of a stone statue, he couldn't help but marvel at the bizarre turn of events. "Master, that's you right?! Master!" Harvestasya's voice resonated with a sense of certainty and relief.

"Yes, it is I, Lyon Torga," Lyon replied with a tone of jest, fully embracing the unexpected humor in the situation. The juxtaposition of the animated stone statue expressing such genuine emotions created a surreal and comical atmosphere. He felt the stony embrace and couldn't help but smile at the eccentricity of the encounter.

The stone statue, seemingly overjoyed, clutched Lyon even more tightly, its stony limbs pressing against him. Lyon, feeling the discomfort intensify, attempted to bring a semblance of normalcy to the situation. "You can stop now," he calmly suggested, hoping to disengage from the peculiar embrace.

However, the statue, in its enthusiastic reunion, seemed oblivious to Lyon's discomfort. The moment was surreal – Lyon being cradled in the arms of a stone statue that once held the lively presence of Harvestasya. The room echoed with a mix of laughter and the occasional clinks as the statue unintentionally knocked against the furniture in its exuberance.

In the midst of this unusual reunion, Liu observed the scene with a mixture of curiosity and amusement. He had witnessed the stony version of Harvestasya, devoid of recognition, and now, this animated display of emotion was nothing short of extraordinary. The dynamics between Lyon and Harvestasya seemed to transcend the physical limitations imposed by the stone exterior.

Liu, observing the scene, couldn't contain his amusement, and a chuckle escaped his lips. "Master, even for you, this is quite the odd reunion."

Lyon, still caught in the embrace of the stony figure, managed a wry smile. "Well, life is full of surprises, Liu. I didn't expect our reunion to involve a stone hug, but here we are."

The stone statue, still holding Lyon with unyielding enthusiasm, finally loosened its grip. The room returned to a strange calmness, and Lyon found himself standing once more on the solid ground, free from the unexpected stony embrace.

The room witnessed an unexpected reunion that defied the laws of the mundane. The air resonated with an inexplicable energy, blending the magical essence of Golem City with the unique bonds formed between Lyon and his enigmatic disciple.

Harvestasya's voice, now more composed, filled the room. "I'm sorry, Master. It's just... it's been a while."

Lyon, despite the awkwardness, offered a warm smile. "Well yes, I was dead last time."
