Chapter 44 - C:46

As the conversation over breakfast naturally moved on, I found myself thinking about the possibilities for expansion, not just in terms of land but in what could truly be grown here. I had seen the seeds buried within my **Limitless Storage**, each more mystical and unique than the last, but none of them were ordinary crops. They all required specific, highly magical environments—ones that couldn't exist naturally on the farm or in any known climate.

One seed, in particular, had caught my attention: the **Frostpetal Elixir Seed**, a rare plant that bore fruits capable of restoring vitality and increasing physical recovery. The seed required a home where eternal winter reigned—a delicate balance of cold that would nurture the plant rather than destroy it.

After breakfast, I quietly slipped away, retreating to the farthest part of the farm where I could begin preparations. I chose a secluded area, shielded by tall trees and far enough away that no one would stumble upon it accidentally. It was the perfect spot for the creation of a new, controlled environment—one designed specifically for the **Frostpetal Elixir Seed**.

Over the next few days, I immersed myself in the project. The first step was to prepare the foundation, but unlike any normal building, this one required special materials. I used a combination of enchanted stone and magical crystals from my storage to ensure that the base would remain cool, a layer of frost just barely clinging to the surface. The soil was a blend of earth and ice-infused minerals, designed to hold the seed and allow it to grow without freezing completely.

As I worked, my family grew curious. My sudden absence from regular farm work and my secluded efforts didn't go unnoticed.

"What are you up to, Rosé?" Mira asked one afternoon, her gaze lingering on the area I had begun to clear.

Aurora stood beside her, arms crossed, a smile playing on her lips. "We've noticed you've been sneaking off more than usual."

I chuckled softly, wiping the sweat from my brow. "I've had a bit of an enlightenment," I said ,turning back to my work. "I'm trying something new, Something insane ."I said I'll show it to you'll once I'm done.

Mira's brow furrowed in confusion. "Enlightenment? What kind of enlightenment requires you to disappear for days at a time?"

"I'm sure you'll love it once it's done Aunt Mira "I said.

She approached me gave me gentle kiss and said "we love everything you do,So just don't push yourself to much".

"Got it" I said with a smile.

Aurora stepped forward, peeking at the stonework I had begun to lay out. "This doesn't look like regular farming, Brother."

I Smiled and said . "Exactly princess,I'm experimenting with different environments, testing what might work better for some of the crops. If it succeeds, we might be able to grow things we never thought possible."

"I'm excited to see what you make brother,If you need any help I'm always available"Aurora said in an joyful and enthusiastic tone.

"I'll let you know Aurora"I said as I kissed her on her forehead.

Once they left, I returned to my work. The next challenge was creating the structure itself. It was to be much more than a greenhouse; it would be a carefully controlled sanctuary. I needed to replicate the environment of an endless winter within a confined space while maintaining the structural integrity against outside weather conditions.

The name that came to me was fitting—**Frostspire Sanctuary**—a place of eternal frost and quiet, where only the most delicate, winter-bound plants could survive. But the real challenge lay in stabilizing the temperature. I used enchanted glass that filtered sunlight, allowing the bare minimum of warmth inside while keeping the cold firmly in place. The stones that formed the walls were inscribed with runes that regulated heat, ensuring that the frost would remain constant, but not deadly.

The **Heart of the Winterborn** crystal, which I found within my storage, became the centerpiece of the sanctuary. It radiated a gentle, cold energy, and when placed in the center of the structure, it created a permanent frost that spread evenly throughout. With the **Heart** in place, I could maintain the ideal conditions for the **Frostpetal Elixir Seed** to flourish.

Over the following weeks, the construction of the Frostspire Sanctuary consumed my days and nights. There were failures—sometimes the frost would intensify too much, freezing everything solid. Other times, the cold was too weak, causing the magical snow to melt into nothingness. Each setback required recalibration, adjustments to the runes, and further refinement of the balance between cold and light.

I worked tirelessly, sometimes even through the night, using my knowledge of both Energies and the tools within my storage to build the perfect environment. The stone walls had to be reinforced several times, ensuring they wouldn't crack under the pressure of the frost. I added layers of magical insulation, made from enchanted cloth I had found, to stabilize the inner temperature without affecting the outer walls.

Every morning, The family would join me ,They would help with all the construction work.Though they were curious about how I was getting material they had never see or heard of ,They didn't ask about it as the thought it was my innate ability.

That's what Mom and Grandma Hestia and Eldara had told them since the had unbeknownst to me seen me creating the Celestial Orb.

Finally, after weeks of meticulous labor, the **Frostspire Sanctuary** was ready. The walls radiated a soft, cold glow, and the ground was covered in a light dusting of magical snow that never melted. The **Heart of the Winterborn** pulsed gently in the center, its frost spreading evenly through the space. The enchanted glass ceiling allowed in just enough light to mimic the pale sunlight of a winter morning, but not enough to warm the air.

The true test came when I planted the **Frostpetal Elixir Seed**. I carefully placed it in the prepared soil, surrounding it with the frost-infused minerals it needed to grow. Then, I watched.

For the first few days, nothing happened. I adjusted the frost levels, recalibrated the light. It took time, but eventually, a tiny sprout broke through the frosted soil, its pale blue leaves shimmering in the cold light. The plant grew slowly but steadily, its delicate petals unfurling under the constant frost.

The success filled me with a deep sense of accomplishment,I took out my Spectral Sight Lenses to look at its detail.

A smile etched onto my face.

I crouched beside the sprout and touched it .

"So you have a Tree spirit too huh ,Well then from today you'll be called Grace!"

My Eternal Bond Tattoo (Beast Tamer Tattoo) glowed and I could feel my connection to grace form.
