A Mad Goddess

I appear in my Domain and see Ramia, Gaia, Verona, and Asami sitting at the table. Asami turns to face me when she sees me.

"Welcome back Master." She says with a smile. I thank her before walking over.

"Where were you!?" Verona asks, jumping from her seat.

"I was out, why?" I ask and she scoffs.

"You said you'd let me study you!" She replies angrily, almost shouting.

"Sorry, some things came up."

"Like what!?" Verona shouts and Gaia hits her head. She sighs before sitting back down. "Sorry, I was just very excited to see your magic." She says and I chuckle.

"Well, I got sucked into an Oni Dungeon." I reply while taking a seat and her eye sparkles again. Gaia gently hits her head before she can say anything.

"Oh, Ramia? How good of a farmer are you?" I ask and she looks at me confused.

"G-good, I think? My p-parents are better though, w-why?" She asks me.

"I got two new seeds, I don't know what they are though. Observe just told me that they're seeds that have never been seen or grown before." I reply and see Verona's eye sparking brighter out of the corner of my eye. She doesn't say anything but I see her smiling wide. "I was wanting to plant it, but I'm not sure where to do it at." I continue and she nods.

"We s-should do it at the farm. W-we still have a l-large area in the back corner. We c-can plant them there." she says and I nod with a smile.

"Could we do that now? They should grow in just a few hours. But they need my blood to fertilize them." I say and Verona's eye starts glowing, due to how much it's sparkling. Ramia nods and stands up. Verona shoots out of her chair and appears at my side. I feel the faint gust of wind I did during our fight.

"Can you show them to me while we walk?" She asks in a quiet and calm tone. I chuckle before taking the Silver Seed and the Blue Lotus Seed out. They appear in my palms and she gasps. We walk out the door while she stares in awe at the seeds in my hands.

"What do you see?" Gaia asks, walking at Verona's side. Ramia's in front of us and Asami is on my other side.

"Its... I..." Verona says, causing me to worry a little.

"Is it bad?" I ask and she furiously shakes her head no.

"T-the mana... It's resonating with the seeds." She says and I tilt my head.

"What does that mean?" I ask and she looks up at me very excited.

"I have no idea! It could be that the seeds are made entirely of mana. But that would make them the first of their kind! If that's the case, you could be holding something revolutionary." She says and I hear Ramia gasp. She turns to me and nods when she sees me looking at her.

"How would it be revolutionary?" Gaia asks and Verona smiles wider.

"It would depend on what they grow into. But if they turned into an Alchemy ingredient. They would be at least Mythical quality. They could even be the first of a new quality! It could be for something else too. Like this silver one, it seems incredibly tough. On par with Magicallium, maybe tougher. If it grew into something just as tough that could be used for weapons or armor. They'd be able to mass-produce Mythical weapons. if the plants can be farmed that is. It's possible that they won't have any seeds, some Alchemy plants are like that." Verona says and Gaia nods with a smile. By the time Verona finishes, we've already reached the farm. Ramia shows us an empty plot and I walk to the center. I walk a few feet to the side before crouching down. Ramia joins me and hands me a garden shovel. We start digging a hole while Verona watches closely. I plant the Silver Seed in this hole before covering it up. I turn and see Gaia's used her magic to create another hole a few feet behind me. I plant the Blue Lotus Seed in that one before raising my hand over it. I raise my hand and cut it with my claws. My blood spills over the dirt and immediately disappears. a small blue light appears before a plant emerges. It's a deep blue, just like the ocean. It reminds me of a flower bud, but a little bigger. I turn and do the same with the Silver Seed. A silver light appears and the plant buds out of the dirt too. This one grows as a few silver-colored vines. They're small and thin, all wrapped into a ball. I turn to the others and see something odd in my vision. There are two timers counting down at the edge of my vision. One blue and the other's silver. Each says the same time, 3:59:48. Verona looks at the plants before looking at me.

"How long until they grow again?" She asks and I smile.

"In four hours." I reply and she nods. We walk back to the cabin and I stretch my arms.

"Eric, can I study your magic now?" Verona asks, her eyes still sparkling.

"I need to make something in my Blacksmiths workshop. Will that work?" I ask and she nods. I enter the workshop and she follows me in.

"What are you making?" She asks and I smile.

"I need to make two sets of armor first." I say while grabbing some tools off the wall.

"First?" She asks and I nod.

"Once I finish those. I want to make a new weapon. Mine's good, but it can be better." I say and she nods.
