Chapter 1921: Yuki Changes
Chapter 1921: Yuki Changes
"Phew... Haah... I'm stuffed. You feed me way too much! I don't think I can take another day of being spoiled..." I sighed. "By tomorrow you can go back to normal..."
Seriously, when they spoil me this much they force me to eat too much food. And I thought I had an endless stomach, but they made so much food rich in vitamins and proteins that I felt stuffed so damn fast.
Maybe it has to do with the divine energy content too, if it were normal food made using mortal-grade ingredients, I would be able to eat tons of it.
But because it is all infused with divine energy... Yeah, it fills the belly much faster. But well, even then, I just forced my way through all of it, just not to make them feel bad.
"Noted!" Benladann laughed. "Though I'll continue helping you cook anyways!"
"I'll make breakfast tomorrow~" Miranda said. "We'll have to eat a lot too, to prepare for the last trial after all."
"Yeah!" Benladra nodded.
"Mamaaaa! Deshert!" Drakda suddenly called Miranda. "Deshert! Deshert!"
"Dessert? You want dessert already, Drakda?" Miranda wondered.
"Hmmm!" Drakda nodded cutely.
"Fine, but first let's get you all cleaned up," I said, walking to his side and using my Aura as a cleaning towel to leave the baby boy all clean and tidy. "There you go! Also why are you such a messy eater, huh? You have to eat slower, son."
"Slowew?" he wondered. "Nuh!"
"Why not?" I wondered.
"I wike... fwood!" he said grumpily.
"Hahaha... okay, whatever." I laughed, kissing his forehead, he was too cute to get mad at him, despite the little brat being a bit cocky at times. "Let's go outside to eat dessert then! The day's beautiful after all."
"The Divine Realm sure has beautiful days, indeed," Benladann nodded.
"A family day like this really feels nice~" Andromeda nodded. "Ah, I never thought I could enjoy such simple things like these... being able to interact with the physical world is truly a blessing."
"Let's go then," I said. "Everyone else is training outside or relaxing, so we can check on the rest of the party."
"Sounds nice! I kind of wanted to get in touch with Yuki a bit more," said Benladann. "Being in that trial we had kind of made me miss her a bit."
"Alright, let's go," I nodded.
We walked downstairs after I checked my inventory, taking out several pastries and sweets for dessert, including a lot of ice cream too.
Ultimately, we sat down right where there was a big tree that had grown there since it was a small divine tree sapling, that my baby Benladra helped me plant when she was barely learning how to walk.
"Wow dad, the tree has sure grown big, huh?" Benladra's eyes sparkled.
"You planted it, sis?" Kate wondered.
"Yep!" Benladra nodded. "When I was a baby, back then you and Drakda weren't born yet... I was the only child, hehe! So I had papa all for myself! And in that free time he helped me plant this little seed."
"Oooh..."
Kate, Benladra, and Drakda all walked towards the tree, admiring its lifeforce and the spiritual energies it exuded.
It had grown at least thirty meters by now, admirable for the time it has passed, it has certainly been feeding well on the divine realm's divine energy.
"Huge!" Drakda said. "Bwig sis planted twis?!"
"Yep!" Benladra nodded cutely. "I even named the tree... It was Greenie!"
FLASH!
As she said the name, suddenly, the tree responded.
It was almost shocking it happened out of nowhere...
The tree glowed brightly, hearing its name.
It extended its aura towards Drakda, encompassing her slightly.
"E-Eh?! Ah! Greenie?"
FLASH!
The tree glowed brightly again, as Benladra felt something, some sort of blessing encompassing her.
I felt the same, this tree had gained Spiritual powers, of the Divine Kind.
Could it have become some sort of Divine Spirit Tree?
But the seed wasn't an Yggdrasil though, it was an Orange Tree!
Though, now that I think about it, it hasn't produced a single orange at all...
"Can you hear its words?" Kate asked Benladra.
"No... Greenie can't talk, they're still a tree after all but..." Benladra muttered. "I kind of understand what it trying to say. They're... happy to see me."
"Twee intelligent?" Drakda asked.
"Yeah, probably!" Benladra nodded. "Hmm? Greenie? What's that?"
The tree slowly moved its branches, as it showed something it was hiding, a beautiful, big
orange fruit.
"Oh wow! For me?"
FLASH!
The tree glowed brightly again, as Benladra grabbed the orange.
"Do I eat it or...?"
FLUOSH!
The tree's rainbow-colored aura shaped like a small hand, petting Benladra's head, before disappearing back into the tree's interior.
Greenie went back to sleep, most likely.
"Greenie..." Benladra muttered the tree's name, holding into the big, watermelon-sized orange she received. "Thanks! I'll enjoy it, and make sure to spread the seeds!"
All fruits are designed to be eaten so the one that eats them spread the seeds farther away, it
is a method the trees use to spread their children and reproduce.
In a way, Greenie had a connection with Benladra, and she trusted to her their children, their seeds, so Benladra could spread them in their stead.
It was... very adorable.
"Huh, I guess magical things like these happen every Sunday now..." I heard Yuki's voice by
my side.
"Oh, Yuki! Where have you been?" Benladann went to hug her.
"Ack! B-Benladann, your hugs are too strong-UKYAAH!" Yuki kept complaining, but Benladann hugged her even tighter.
Once she let go of her, however, Yuki sighed in relief.
"I have been just training my abilities, the power of the Spirits and all..." Yuki muttered. "I
don't want to just stand there and watch, I will be of much greater help against our foes, I
promise."
"Hah, you don't need to push yourself so far for us," I said. "But I appreciate the thought, nonetheless."
"I-I'm not doing it just for you okay? But also for myself..." Yuki felt a bit embarrassed by saying that. "The future that awaits me is... much bigger than I ever thought, so I must
prepare."
Yuki has sure changed... I'm quite proud of that.
