Coating the lock with my mass, I inserted myself inside it. While I couldn't form any appendages with a slime this weak, I knew it was possible. I'd heard enough about the Slime Queen from the monster kingdom to know how frightening they could be. That said, compressing my body mass to give some weight to my liquid body was quite difficult.
I struggled for several minutes, which led to a lot of cursing from the Gnome's side, but I eventually managed to turn part of my body into a key. If pushing as much of my liquid body into the keyhole counted as that.
Anyway, it was enough. Compressing my body, the liquid stiffened temporarily. That was enough to turn the 'key' and snap the first cage open.
The first Fairy shot out of the cage, leaving only a few more cages to tend to. And that I did, opening each of the cages.
"Good boy. I don't know why a human would help us, but I shall thank your mate for taming you well." The Gnome said with a punchable smile, patting my leg.
