Chapter 44: Practicing for a bit
"You can go to our space and rest. I'll wait for you to come out while I practice," Treyton said as soon as they got inside the car.
"Ok, then, I'll rest as long as I can," Luciel said. He was clearly not planning to come out at their agreed time, which was only 1 hour in real time.
"Don't worry about it. You can stay in our space longer. I will practice my abilities anyway."
As soon as he heard Treyton's reply, he immediately went to their space.
He was sleepy, so he slept on his bed as soon as he arrived at their space.
When he was fully rested, he didn't go out of their space immediately, but he actively practiced his abilities.
There were already plants in their space because he put all the plants on the rooftop in their space.
He could feel that the plant energy around the space was a little bit stronger than before.
The plants from the rooftop also grew bigger than before because of the time difference.
The more plants there were in their space the better. So, Luciel started practicing his abilities by making the plants grow faster and making them bloom.
Most of the plants he got from the rooftop were flowering plants, so he made them bloom. Then afterwards he would get some of their seeds, scatter them around, and make them grow again.
He repeated such practice until he planted a lot of plants in their space.
Luceil actually doesn't need to practice that much because he already mastered his abilities. He just needed to practice more so that he wouldn't lose touch of it.
In his past life, he didn't grow plants that much without using them immediately, except for the plants that he was often using.
Most of the people that have abilities were combatants, except for those with a lot of privileges. So, most of the time, he used his plant abilities in combat.
In that world, some plants also had consciousness, and they could follow basic commands, but there were only a few of them, and they were also very expensive if you were going to buy them unless you were the one who found them in the wild.
He only had 3 plants that developed consciousness, which were only the plants that he grew for a long time.
Most of the time he only carried seeds of plants that he would instantaneously grow and used them for combat.
The plants there were all bizarre and weren't even good-looking because they were all corrupted by the environment.
They were also dangerous, so even those with plant abilities needed to be careful not to lose control of them.
Because of how dangerous they are, they would only carry seeds with them and only grow them when needed.
That was also the reason why they needed to have a high level and, of course, to have good control over their abilities.
In his past life, when he was training his abilities, he would also prepare to kill the plants he grew as soon as possible. So, he had to fight the plants he grew as soon as he finished growing them.
That's why most plant users only grew plants that they were sure they could defeat.
Well, others had helpers, but unlike them, he was training his abilities alone.
He doesn't have anyone willing to accompany him in killing whatever he grows, and of course he also didn't trust that others wouldn't take advantage of his state to kill him, which also happened a few times.
That's why he also didn't want others to accompany him and just defeat the plants he grew on his own.
He just used them as practice targets to increase his combat proficiency. The plants there were all poisonous to humans, so while training his plant ability to level up, he was always in danger, so his combat proficiency also increased as he wanted to.
This time, unlike his past life, he could leisurely train how to use his abilities without worrying about how to kill them later on.
He doesn't have any problem using his abilities; he just needed to have more power reserve to increase his ability level.
At the stage he was at the moment, he still needed to have the plants in the soil before he could grow them.
Once he increased his ability level, he could just hold the plant seeds without needing to put them in the soil to grow them, which was more convenient, especially when fighting.
To use his abilities properly, he also needed to look for suitable plants he would cultivate and use for combat.
Even if he was currently just lazing around because Treyton was present, he still needed to look for plants that were suitable for combat.
Most of the plants were still normal, but it was written in the novel that there would be variant plants emerging later on.
They should actually already be present, but they were still dormant.
According to what was written in the novel, some plants also mutated because of the new energy in the atmosphere.
But at least, unlike in his past world, the mutation direction of plants can be considered to be better.
Some plants still became aggressive, but a lot of them were also discovered to be beneficial to humanity.
Luciel needed to look for more plants while they were on their way north.
He already told Treyton to always pay attention to plants because he needed them.
Well, he had to look for them, but of course it was still better to let the others do the work for him.
After he was satisfied with his training, he finally went out of their space to continue resting with Treyton.
"You're finally out?" Treyton said as soon as he saw him appear beside him.
"Yes, I also practiced my ability for a bit," Luciel said while yawning.
"That's good. Then, let's rest some more," Treyton said and embraced him to sleep.
