In a lab-like greenhouse.
Celine gently fed the Axarin Vine her nature exuberance. The tamed Axarin Vine joyfully shook its leaves in celebration.
While feeding the vine her energy, Celine writes with her free hand, writing down today's observation of the plant on the official records.
"As expected of Ms. Celine! Another wild and fierce mutated plant has been tamed!" Exclaimed Queenie, Celine's current partner for the ongoing project.
On Queenie's hand was an Xgorgia Plant, a mutated vine-type plant that exudes a strong hypnotic scent. The Xgorgia vine obediently wrapped itself in Queenie's hand, like an inanimate object.
Looking at the scoundrel of the vine-type mutated plant being still like an object, Celine lightly smiled at the dark-skinned woman.
"I can say the same to you, Ms. Queenie."
"Na-ah! You tamed that Axarin Vine with patience and care, I tamed mine with violence! There's a big difference!" Queenie sighed and looked at the mutated vine shaking its leaves in delight.
To think that the 'demon' (in terms of temper) of the mutated vine-type plants could act so cute and eager to a Planter was new to Queenie. More so that it didn't actually throw any temper tantrums!
Queenie looked at Celine with admiring eyes. Not only was Celine the best planter at the whole General University, but she was also the best in the whole region!
To think she was able to work with her on this project was a huge blessing!
"Ms. Celine, how did you do that? I need to beat up this Xgorgia plant before it eats my exuberance but this Axarin vine straight-up craved yours." Queenie enviously looked at the Axarin vine that was lively eating and looked at the quiet and scared Georgia plant on her wrist.
Celine's lips twitched. She fell silent. If she answers that she really doesn't know and just treats it like a normal plant, will anyone believe her?
"I have made sure to create a perfect fertilizer as an offering and talked to it for an hour a day. I also dedicated planting it on its favorite soils since it came under my care. I made sure I watered it with the Sparkle water on time and dedicated 30 minutes of my time to loosening its soil every day." The plants in today's era have been more demanding than in the past since they mutated but what Planters need to do is generally the same.
It's just that, people in today's era have been impatient about such things and resort to the easier way, like when they just feed the mutated plants with exuberance.
When Queenie heard Celine's words, she grimaced.
"Nevermind. I don't have that much time to patiently care for a plant." Queenie pouted, amazed that a person could be born so suitable to be a Planter.
Celine softly smiled and gently put the Axarin Vine into it's pot.
She stood up and her white lab coat lightly swayed with her movement. Grabbing the tablet on the table, she approached Queenie, who was writing her journey of 'taming' the Xgorgia plant with mighty force on her tablet.
Celine patted the woman's shoulder.
"Ms. Queenie, I finished my report, so I'll submit it to Professor Xion first."
"Awww. That's alright. Ah! Ms. Celine, be careful though! I heard that an infamous senior from the Beast Control Department has been bothering Professor Xion for days. You might meet him, so be careful of him! I heard rumors of him being fierce-tempered and always wanting to fight everyone!" Queenie worriedly reminded.
'Ms. Celine is a very quiet and gentle person! What if that infamous senior fought her when he saw her? I heard he fights everyone he sees when he's annoyed.'
Celine chuckled. Freshmen nowadays always think she was a gentle person. If they had met her in her freshman year, they might have changed that opinion.
'And an infamous senior from the Beast Control Department? I've heard of his fearsome reputation but I hadn't seen him yet. The BC Department students rarely crossed ways with the Planters Department students.'
Celine just smiled and patted Queenie's curly hair.
"Do not worry. I look harmless but you need to remember that I have a tamed Costa String Flowers."
"Ah! Of course! Still, be careful Ms. Celine."
Celine waved her hand and departed from the #03 Vine Laboratory. Celine followed the bricked road and gazed at the huge field containing a wide variety of mutated plants, of which some were almost extinct.
The fresh breeze full of life made Celine smile. Weirdly enough, all the mutated plants in this large Greenhouse liked her and her exuberance. And so, as she walked away, her hands busily received the fruits of the mutated fruit trees had been giving.
Celine collected all the gifts with a wave of her hand, storing the mutated fruits in her space.
When she closed the #01 Greenhouse door, Celine already had half a year's supply of mutated fruits.
