'If a low grade Indigo Percher fruit can grow around here that means that the spiritual Hone around this place is dense,' thought Ivy
She
Ivy sat in cultivation wanting to know what was blocking her cultivation journey
She then found out that her meridians were blocked by a curse and this curse required a cultivator on the fifth tank to break it.
The curse in her body was known as soft lock curse.
She then assessed the cultivation level of scovian and found out that she was at a low level and couldn't be able to break her curse.
But she was not yet in a hurry so long as there is no danger
She fears harm coming for her, Scarlett and her babies
She then lied down to sleep.
The next morning, she found three buckets filled with fruits.
"Did Scovian gather them for me to appraise them?" She thought.
Ivy then got up and felt energized.
"Lucy? You finally feel better?" Scovian asked when she got in the small room and asked
Ivy nodded then smiled to her. Ivy stared at scovian's state.
She was a child but was given work like an adult. She was currently thin and wore rugged clothes
A child at her age should be bouncing with excitement and do whatever she likes.
'Bear with me for this short moment my little scovian, I will make sure that your future will be better,' Ivy vowed.
"Is there something of wrong,Lucy," scovian asked when she saw her expression.
"Nothing, little one.....come," Ivy called out to her. Scovian obediently went to her and sat next to her.
"I want you to listen closely little one. I hate that name,okay? From now on, you can call me mother or ivy, okay? I want my name to be Ivy Fades and not Lucinda Precious, understood?" Ivy said and Scarlett nodded adorably.
"Another thing, I want you to continue cultivating so that you can protect me and your siblings to come,"
"But.....what about you?"
"I can handle myself very well. I want you to grow powerful,okay?" Ivy said then teasingly pinched her cheeks making her pout cutely.
"Alright mother, I am going to cultivate outside. If you need me call out my name," said scovian.
"Run along then,"
Ivy got up to grab one of the buckets noticing her belly and her rugged clothes.
She felt uncomfortable for not having a bath since God knows when.
She then questioned as to why her belly looked like she was six months pregnant when she was just only two months pregnant.
She had no one to ask this question so she just stopped thinking about it
"Are you feeling well mother,"
Scovian was in the room staring at her
Ivy nodded and remained silent.
"Little one, why don't you go and search for clothes in the mansion?"
Scovian shook her head in fear and then walked closer to her to whisper to her ear as if someone else will hear what she will say when she speaks loudly.
Before she spoke, she looked around to see if there was someone else apart from the two of them.
Ivy held down the urge to laugh at her cuteness.
"There are rumors that I heard at the Mondrian village from the village folks," whispered then looked around again seeing if there was someone else.
"This mansion is haunted and the dead owners of the mansion detest trespassing," fearfully she whispered.
"Go on and cultivate little one. Let me deal with the appraisal of these fruits," she nodded then left the room
'well, the rumors might be true and also not true. Most of those village folks, cannot cultivate due to unknown reasons that I should find out. I don't want to believe mere rumors but caution is very important so the matter w"ith clothes, let me leave that for awhile,' she thought
She then thought that maybe if scovian reaches second rank then maybe, together they could explore the mansion.
Infront of her, were three buckets of fruits. She pulled one of the buckets towards her and checked them out.
The fruits in it were the low Grade Indigo Percher fruit. she took one a bit it while pulling another bucket towards her.
She was shocked to see a low grade fruit and two high grade fruits.
I know you might be wondering how comes there are only three fruits in the wooden buckets.
The fruits in that world are like the size of a football so, the wooden bucket can hold only three fruits.
To her, those fruits were very valuable and if she was an alchemist, she would have been very rich.
She can't be blamed, she has love for money. She lived a lavish life in the past due to her hard work and she was satisfied with it. Too bad she could not live for long.
Suddenly, her skin hairs stood erect and she also became elert.
'Seems like I spoke too soon about danger!'
She then did not feel danger anymore but felt pity.
She felt as if something was in pain and she just wanted to help it to feel better.
"Mother?! Do you feel that?!"
