Don't Come to Wendy's Flower House-Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Chapter 55 Don’t come to the hunting contest in the forest (17)

She struggled to pull herself together with her eyes closed.

As she used too much power in a short time, she was completely exhausted.

It seemed that she lost her energy after overcoming the crisis of death a moment ago.

“I am fine.”

After coming to her senses, she closed her eyes for a while and rubbed her dry eyes. When she raised her head, she saw his face first and his gray eyes reflecting opaque feelings like a creek in the rainy season. She didn’t have the heart to meet his gaze because she would be swept away in a stream of feelings if she kept looking.

The fluttering petals once again landed on them, but they could not even remove the petals.

“You look worse than me. You had better hurry up for urgent treatment. ”

His face was also bleeding from its scratches and other wounds. Obviously, the wounds on his body, which were invisible because of the clothes, were more serious. Avoiding his eyes, she tried to get up hastily, but he stopped her.

“It’s dangerous.”

Wisteria branches shook greatly. Lard, worried about her sudden movement, seemed anxious.

“I’m fine. Just watch me,” she said feebly.

She had to use the power of her index finger once again. There was no use crying over spilled milk, but it was the first time she was about to show her power in front of others. So, she felt scared.

Lard loosened his grip on loosened her hand. Meeting his gaze, she lowered her head in no time.

‘What does he think of me?’

That was the first thing that made her heart heavy when she thought about lots of things that would happen in the future. After she received the power from the forest fairy, she had never been caught by anybody. She was very nervous about how Lard would react upon watching it firsthand. Although she was worried because it was Lard, not anybody else, who would witness her power, she felt a bit relieved. She could not easily understand her feelings.

Wendy cautiously moved closer to the cliff. Touching her finger to the dirt near the wisteria’s base, she pressed her index finger to it without hesitation. She felt sharp pain in the wound, but she had to pay the price inevitably to grow healthy plants.

When she took her finger away, there was a red mark like a fingerprint. From the soil stained with her blood, a lush green downy-haired stem began to grow. At the same time, several leaves that were split into zigzag strips began to grow along its length. By the time the yellow petals bloomed at the end of the stem, Lard let out a shocked breath with a hardened expression. Although he witnessed the whole process, he couldn’t believe it.

The growth of the plant did not stop there. Yellow petals quickly collapsed and withered, falling down to the ground. Shortly afterwards, white plumes were pushed out of the sepal where the petals fell, and a white spore came out. It took only a few moments for her to do this.

“Weslaya is a dandelion. Adapted to the windless valley of the Weslaya province, it flies easily even with little wind. It is about 20 times bigger than normal.”

When she finished talking, she looked awkwardly at his face. Obviously, she was concerned she might look conceited to him, though she tried to pretend to stay casual.

But Lard’s expression was unmoved as usual because he was also conscious of her.

As he didn’t want to make her worried, he quickly calmed down and met her eyes. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

“Isit very big?”

“… You bet.”

Wendy felt relieved at his cool reaction, but on the other hand, she felt a bit disappointed.

Even though she didn’t expect his big surprise, she thought he would utter just a little bit of exclamation. Given the extraordinary display of her power, his reaction was pretty disappointing.

“Hummm…”

She snorted as if she was dissatisfied. Looking at his face through her half-closed eyes, she decided that she would pretend not to know what she had shown to him. If he treated her as if nothing happened, she would do the same!

She shrugged once and crawled near the dandelion spores. She grabbed and tried to pull them out with both hands, but found it hard because her hand was wounded. The heap of swelling dandelion spores was big enough to cover her face. Wendy was more immersed in pulling them out, with her face buried in them.

Weslaya dandelion was a plant mostly growing in the Weslaya region, surrounded by high mountains, perfectly adapted to the low wind environment. They floated in the air so easily even with very little wind that there were several rare episodes about the Weslaya dandelion.

Wendy remembered reading a research paper published by a botany professor of the Jeddah Academy in which he argued that Weslaya dandelion spores could lift a mountain goat close to a meter when they were hung on its neck. Noting this, she used the plant several times in her simulations at Rainey Forest, where she had done lab research for emergencies.

The Weslaya dandelion was five times as large as a regular dandelion, but in Rainey Forest she had to make it bigger. After repeated experiments, she found out that she needed about six spores to handle her weight, and that she had to grow them to be about twenty times the size of the Weslaya dandelion.

“Here you are. It seems like you need spores.”

Wendy was in angst while handing three or four Weslaya spores to Lard.

“Take about ten spores for now. If you think you are floating too high, you’d better throw them away one by one. You can use the same method when you land on the ground. ”

Listening to her explanation, Lard looked at her with an unbelievable expression. From his point of view, he felt her explanation was nonsense. However, she had closed her lips, pondering over how to persuade him.

“Well, I’m going to use Welshaya spores to go down there. Grab this and jump down into the air when the wind blows. Then, you can slowly come down. You can go even a long distance. This doesn’t seem like anything special, but it will create a formidable force with little wind. Oh, look! ”

At that moment, the east wind blew. When her left hand holding the spores floated in the direction of the wind, he seemed astonished. She tightened her grip on the spores to make sure they were not blown away by the wind.

“They’re stuck here very hard. Would you please help me instead of looking at me blankly?

She struggled to tear off the spores stuck on the calyx. Approaching her slowly, he looked down at her with a worried expression.

“Oh my…”

Wisteria flowers scattering in the wind landed in her yellow hair. The purple petals finely decorated her head as she struggled to remove the spores and looked like a corolla.

He smiled awkwardly, recalling the ivy that decorated her head at the Jerus Hall. He didn’t expect to experience watching her mystical power like this, but he felt strange when he finally found out the exact source of many mysterious things that kept him wondering until now.

He would lie if he said he was not awed by her miraculous power, but he could not understand how she could do it.

Aside from questions about how she had that ability and when she used it, he was lost in strange thoughts that he himself couldn’t understand. If this mysterious power could exist in the world, it was natural that she possessed the power. As her young yellow hair and her green eyes looked very good on her, this special power also suited her very well, he thought.

“Sir Schroder, are you ready? Even if your injured shoulder hurts, you should not let go of the spores. You already know what will happen after that, right? ”

With Weslaya spores in her hand, her legs crossed outside the wisteria trunk, she did not forget to give him advice with a worried expression. It looked like she was scaring him away, but he just smiled furtively and nodded once.

“I know very well. You shouldn’t let go of the spores because your injured hand hurts… I don’t have the heart to see you falling again. I’m really not confident this time. ”

Lard spoke jokingly.His face was still expressionless, so she had to narrow her eyebrows a bit to judge if he spoke in jest or seriously.

“Don’t worry. It won’t happen, but even if that happens, I won’t reach out for your help. Of course, let me save you if you are in danger. If you give me Balos in return for your life! ”

Wendy said with a smile.

“…That won’t happen. No matter what happens, I won’t let go of these spores!”

Lard was ready to jump down.

Right at that moment, a strong wind blew.

When she signaled, the two let themselves float into the air.
