Chapter 48 Divine Fruits

-alright this should be enough...

I muttered to myself as i pressed onto the little hill of dirt that i had set next to the cave entrance...bellow the little dirt hill i had buried a single seed that came from the rosy star shaped fruit.I wanted to test something and figured that i could finally use the in this situation as i had only used the skill once which was when i buried the crimson wolf mother through the skill giving miraculous results as the grass on the ground spread and buried the mother whole but other than that i hadn't used it as it never really had any use to me...but now it was a bit different.

It was a simple skill but also very useful if you think about it...it didn't have any offensive or defensive power it had more of a utility type characteristics as it simply accelerated the growth speed of plants and other greenery.The reason i was doing this was to test if the seed that i had buried would grow into a tree through the skill and honestly i had quiet a lot of hope in this project because it made me think that i could get these fruits or vegetables any time at home without moving out of my comfort zone,but in the end this was only optional something good to know not to actually do right now as the harvester slimes already collected these fruits everyday endlessly...In certain circumstances though this ability can really shine like in winter when the fruits wouldn't grow anymore i could just use the ability and make it grow on the spot getting a infinite supply of these without a problem...hmm it was something worth to consider actually collecting the seeds or branches in case of winter or short supply of food...seeing that the girls were literal gluttons and the possibility of season circumstances made me note this onto my mind as i looked at the small dirt hill evoking the skill to see if it would work.

With that thought green particles started to appear onto my palms surrounding the little hill that i was using as my target the particles were quite beautiful as they danced around the little hill with a sparkling green light and with that surprisingly i could see a small seedling appear on the top of the little hill quickly growing upwards as the green particles also followed the seedling the base slowly turning into a brownish green color and the plant growing up higher and higher with insane speed right before my eyes...

The base of the plant was starting to thicken the more it grew becoming more darker and harder as the first branches started to spread out from the main shaft of the plant leaves started to sprout as the plant grew wider...

I was taking more and more steps backwards because of the growth of the tree which i was looking at with eyes full of amazement even the girls looked over here very curious on what i was doing some even wide eyed when they realized that the tree was literally growing in insane speed some even thought that it would attack me but i assured them through the transmission link that it was alright and that i had control over it which they trusted in and continued their training while make small observations towards me and the fast growing tree that was in front of me...

-mister...why are you all...ehh ?

Calar who had been sleeping up until now came out of the cave with the slimes and when she got out she saw me next to the entrance raising my palms and shooting out the green particle lights out from them towards the tree that growing rapidly from the side of the entrance...

-woooowww...

Calar was wide eyed as she watched the tree grow to its full size dozens of leafs sprouting from the different branches and blooming with a bright glistering green color almost shining in my vision and then...fruits started to grow...the rosy fruits started as small little pimps on the trees evolving into a blooming little star and filling up as if something was pumping it up...the amount of the fruits were a lot and covering the whole tree the color was also a very bizarre shining rosy color not at all the same as the original fruit but more fresh and appetizing to look at for some reason...maybe its because the fruits are new.

I thought for a second as i stopped to feed the tree with the skill making the green particles disappear and the fruits hang on the trees as i approached them plunking one of the fruits from the branch and looked at its glistering glory...

-Appraisal

I muttered as i activated my appraisal skill showing the notification with the needed info on it which i had already know but surprisingly this time it was different.

~Congratulations [LvL.5] has become[LvL.6]~

With the level up notification coming up first i dismissed it with a delightful grin looking at the notification to see clear difference from the last entry.

A fruit that has a sweet sour taste and gives the consumer a agility boost for a set amount of time.

Because the fruit is Divine the agility that will be boosted will be 48 points.

As i looked at the description i was honestly i bit shocked...the ordinary star fruit also know as Caprucia only gave me 6 points of agility as a boost when consumed raw but this fruit is 8 times the amount that it will boost just by eating it raw making it a very valuable consumable the entry and explanation was also different from the last time,it gave me a explanation to the quality of the item which was Divine making my eyes pop for a second as i started thinking if Divine wasn't the highest grade in quality because i had acquired it so easily making me actually appraise the quality rating which had me leaving baffled.

Common

Uncommon

Rare

Unique

Epic

Artifact

Legendary

Divine

There wasn't an explanation to these meanings but i could just guess from the layout that divine was the highest possible quality rating meaning it was invaluable...but in the end what did it mean ? how did it even get such item ?

I looked at the divine fruit that i was holding in my hand and started thinking about it...the seed which it grew from couldn't be it nor was it the ground or the location meaning it was...

-My skill ?

I muttered a bit confused...my conclusion was that the reason i had acquired such high quality item was because i had grown it using the to grow it meaning that i had literally used the power of a deity to make a ordinary fruit into a divine one...

If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

-...

I was too mind blown to react to my accomplishment the item that i was holding in my hand was made through the power of a god...thats just unbelievable no matter what you say...

-mister ! mister...can i have one please !

Calar who was by my side begging me to let her eat one was fully energetic and excited for some reason as she pulled the hem of my sleeve while i was drowned in my own thoughts i felt a little bad ignoring her so i gave her the fruit that i was holding for her to taste i also plucked another fruit that was on the tree and bit in as well...

-mhhmmm

Calar munched into the rosy star fruit head on as she chewed on it making the sweet pudding like substance gush out...i also ate it and noticed that the insides of the fruit had become a lot more cooler and sweeter for some reason giving me a very pleasant taste almost as if i was eating ice cream...wow.

-uhh..

-ohhhh

-hmmm

As we were eating the fruits passionately i noticed that the others once again stopped their training to take a moment by looking at us eating the fruits so merrily...they were drooling looking a bit starved pitiful too as they felt compelled to come here and take a bite knowing full well that they can't come until they finish their training.I planned on giving each girl one fruitso they wouldn't give me that pitiful stare afterwards...

-hahhh...mister how did the tree get here and why were you shooting out green light from your hands !

After calar finished her fruit she started to bombard me with questions about the tree and how it grew...i gave her a brief explanation and just told her that i was able to make plants grow through magic which she found very amazing as she looked at me admiringly as if she was looking at a god...which was very wrong as i told her that it wasn't anything special...which was actually lie since it was god fruit to be blunt...but who cares...i thought until the little girl protested.

-No,mister this is amazing ! You can make trees and plants grow through your magic which is awesome ! Not even the elders in my village can do that or my mother who is a nature priestess herself we can only summon boring treants or vines and thorny flowers...but actually making things grow so much and making it so beautiful is very special !

Calar insisted as she cheered for my success in growing a tree using magic...i didn't really explain it to her into detail or tell her about the quality of the item itself because i felt that something abnormal as this could be very well lure some greedy people to me which i didn't want of course so i decided to keep this a secret no matter what.

Calar continued to exaggerate on how amazing my ability was until she got tired herself and used one of the slimes as cushion to sit on she was really excited about this but i was sure she would soon forget about it...that just how kids are they have something to play until they get distracted by something else to play it is a never ending circle until they grow up and get their priorities straight to live their set circle...

I also looked towards the sky for a moment trying to judge how much time it was i concluded that enough time had passed and that it was about time to prepare the dinner so i walked towards the girls calling for hobusaku,hobura and hoboku to start cooking lessons...

The 3 of them hearing me call them had bright smiling faces as they raced towards me as if it was a competition and of course hobusaku was first as she stood in front of me back straight with a sweet smile on her face...the other 2 also came at the same time and momentarily glanced at each other also snorting and looking the other way still a bit pissed at each other but not so much as to start a embarrassing argument again...hobusaku seeing this also made a wryly smile trying to comfort both of them as i lead them towards the 4 fire places which i had the slimes prepare before hand for the lunch, they were still waiting in a line awaiting my further orders and instructions to make the dinner.

All 3 of the girls were assigned 1 camp fire each and 1 full corpse of a animal that looked like a adult weasel merged with a bear the size was approximately 60 to 70 cm in length and 30 cms wide the insides of the corpses were still intact with the magic inside of the animal residing the animal was also skinned before hand to shorten the amount of time needed to cook it...the first dish i was about to teach them was something simple and easy to make it was also very access able to them if they didn't have me in hand as i looked at all 3 of them standing next to my own camp fire with my own weasel bear corpse as i told them the food we were making.

-Today i will teach you how to make a roast

The 3 of them looked a bit distracted hearing my what we were making they smiled only a few seconds afterwards as they felt confident that they would be able to make it which was still a mistake as the animal wasn't even prepared yet...

With that said i started to lecture the girls about the corpse and what to do with it where to cut it and how to prepare it...showing it myself...while i was doing that the slimes were preparing the real meal that the girls would eat following the way i had told them to make the food they followed my instructions point on making different kinds of stews and roasts marinading it with herbs and also stirring and roasting the stews and meats in different ways...the slimes were truly skilled when it came to following orders or mimicking things their minds were also one as they worked in a team of 3 doing one kind of food exchanging places and handling the different ingredients with care and precision which after all impressed me very well...compared to these slimes the girls on the other hand...

-damn...

-is this the heart or liver ?

-What do i do with this long meat ?

I facepalmed for a second...as they literally toyed with the food in their hands...this might take a while.
