"Sister Christel, welcome, I really like plants, you don't have to thank me, it's no hassle."
Momo greeted Christel as if she had just noticed her arrival. Although she had a slight pink on her cheeks, she responded naturally and with a smile.
Momo loves to spend her time in her garden when she is free, and she also loves to go to the greenhouse where a number of special flowers and plants are found.
At first, he came to earth with his sister Nana to simply have fun, he didn't expect much, apart from meeting his older sister Lala's fiancée, they wanted to take advantage of their time of freedom away from their Father's control.
But both Momo and Nana have discovered that this world is interesting. And although they don't like going to school very much, school life is very different from what they were used to in their life in the imperial castle.
Momo was very happy when she saw that, at the back of the house, there was a garden, although not large it was very well maintained with a great diversity of plants and flowers.
Although Lala has been making alterations to the house, she has always been careful when she does something in the garden, as she knows that it is a special place for Christel.
In reality, Christel uses the place to raise plants and practice her druidic magic, the only magic she can use that doesn't arouse suspicion. Since anyone can think that plants simply grow very healthy because of Christel's high vitality.
But now, there's something special about this place.
"And how is Celine?"
"Celine grows healthily thanks to your care, but she says she misses you"
"hehe~ So, a plant that Lala gave me, and that comes from outer space, surprises me..."
Christel gave him a smile and patted him a few small times on the head of Momo who was crouching down taking care of the plants.
"Moooo~ You never believe me, Christel..."
Momo pouted, but was happy to be slapped, the taco he has had with this fiancée of his older sister always gives him a feeling of happiness.
After a moment, Momo stood up and walked towards the small greenhouse in the backyard.
Next to Christel, I enter the greenhouse and in the middle, there was a large pot with a plant that seemed to be a huge carnivore, with a height of more than two meters.
It has a trunk similar to that of the slender green Coconut Palm tree, but at the top, there is a pink flower with six petals and a huge mouth in the center. The large mouth has teeth in the form of very pointed fangs. It is truly a kind of carnivorous plant in all its glory.
Every time she comes to see Celine, at all times of her growing up, since Lala gave her to her about two months ago, according to a late gift for her 11th birthday, Christel remembers that she has to go conquer Red Rose, and she also remembers to conquer The Duchess and then she remembers to conquer Lakrii. It's a series of memories of the things he still has to do in the world of Sanctuary that he can't rest just to capture Moreina Blood Raven.
A pair of green lianas rose from the two sides of the giant carnivorous plant and spread towards Christel.
They wrapped themselves around Christel's waist and legs and moved in a caressing way.
"Hehehehe~ See, I told you I miss you" Momo is happy to learn that Christel is loved by plants. Her eyes sparkle with joy, so when she saw Celine's vines wrap around Christel and make movements here and there, a series of images she has seen on Maria's laptop came to mind.
Soon Momo's small white face turned red, and her eyes changed to a pinker glow.
But he came out of his fantasy state, when he heard Christel asking something.
Christel also felt the soft vines on her body, she could feel their forces that were no weaker than the vines she could summon with her druidic magic. But unlike those vines that can only live for a moment as long as it keeps the flow of mana and vitality. Celine's lianas have their own vitality and are a living, independent plant.
As she approached Celine, Christel noticed a sphere above her mouth, something that wasn't there when she last saw her a couple of days ago. So I ask Momo.
"That sphere, it's not a fruit that Celine is giving, right?"
"He? Fruit? Carnivorous plants do not bear fruit as such, to attract their prey they use sweet honey and then trap them with their vines."
Momo moved closer to Christel's side and watched Celine dancing and moving from side to side, of course, inside her special pot.
"What if you ask Celine?"
Christel looked at her with a smile with a hint of mockery. Christel is good at druidic magic, and if she can feel the plants to know the information they want to convey, but it is true that she does not have Momo's natural talent for talking to plants.
But as long as Christel continues to train and reaches the level of Arch-Druid, maybe she can get to have the same ability as Momo and Nana? It has been asked sometimes.
"It's true, there's a piece of fruit. Mooo~ why don't you believe me I can talk to the plants Christel... Mmmmm. Celine says she doesn't know what it is, but she thinks it's very important to her."
"Isn't Celine feeling bad in the last few days?"
"Celine says there are times when she feels exhausted, but thanks to her Mom Christel, she quickly regains her energy when she waters her and when she hugs her... hehe~ Mama Christel~"
"Well, kids are always closer to mom than dad. It's obvious that Celine loves me more than Papa Momo, doesn't it Celine."
"He?, Papa Momo? Me?, Hee? Celine, no. Celine but, he? Celine and Mom? No, Celine, that's not good. But... "
A series of exclamations, questions, and stutters appeared in Celine and Momo's interaction, as Momo kept a hand on Celine's trunk.
Although Christel doesn't know specifically what they're talking about. I can feel the emotional interactions and spiritual bond between the two.
By the time Celine takes her human form, it will be fun to see the reaction of the other girls when they hear the two-year-old looking little Celine running around and saying Papa Momo here and there. Just thinking about it, Christel smiles.
But thinking about Christel's human form, he has been surprised that Celine has not yet transformed, according to the manga, it took about a month and a half and two months, but now more time has passed.
Not only that, Celine has also received a lot of help from Christel in her growth, such as energy, vitality and nutrients. Come on, you've even transported from the sanctuary world magical fertilizers for your plant.
Based on Celine's symptoms of fatigue, it seems that the time is approaching, although he doesn't know what exactly caused Celine to undergo a mutation in the original line, but after all the resources, her new form should be superior to what was expected.
If it weren't for coming and noticing the fruit growing, he still wouldn't find out, so he decided to add more resources so that nothing happens to Celine in the next few days and has her transformation without problems or setbacks.
While Momo smoked with steam and her red face does not lower any tone. Christel pulled out a red potion and a blue potion. He bent over Celine's pot and slowly poured the liquids from the vials.
These are potions of her own creation, under Akara's teachings, Christel's level of potions is already good. In addition, he has been experimenting with his different body fluids, such as his own blood.
'What will Celine's power be after her transformation? It's a pity that my biological field isn't wide enough yet, or taking Celine to help me conquer the Red Rose would perhaps lower the difficulty a lot. Could Red Rose also transform into a human form? Like Celine, it's a carnivorous plant, it shouldn't be difficult...'
After playing with Celine and Momo for a while, Christel said goodbye to a sad Celine, and returned to the house.
Although Christel believes that doing schoolwork is superfluous, like the image of a good student that she has maintained, she went up to her office next to her room to drop off the work that the teachers requested.
After a few minutes, Christel put her homework in order, then took out her cell phone, still the Ericsson, and checked the emails.
Christel's daily routine has a practically established routine, in a schedule where her acquaintances already know at what times of the day Christel is most likely to answer her emails.
So the email inbox, I already had a few dozen emails waiting.
Meanwhile, in Christel's room, in a small area, Lala was working on a table with two dolls that seemed to have Lala's features in one percent, and Christel's features in the other percent.
"My doll is still not as good as the ones that appeared this morning, Honey is actually very powerful to be able to create them... Peke, project the data and parameters of the analysis of the two dolls and compare them with these two"
"Yes, Lala-sama"
A series of characters, pie and bar charts, and so on appeared on a holographic screen in front of Lala.
Although Lala has given Christel many things for her inventions, for example, this holographic display system. Christel has said that it is not necessary, that she wants to move forward on her own, but that whenever she needs help she will look for it, which has happened on occasions and Lala is happy to do so. But it's true that he admires Christel's effort to do things with her own hands.
Lala knows that at first. Although the betrothed argument was very weak, he purposely clung to it to escape the idea of marriage arranged by his Father. She did it more than anything for her sisters. Lala is not stupid, she can do it to her now, but in the future, the same fate will befall her little sisters, and Lala is very protective of her two younger sisters.
To break this idea, she became stubborn in rejecting marriage even though she was always an obedient daughter. The plan was just to escape and have a long-term fight with his father. But he had an accident in his escape, falling into a young girl's bathroom and causing contact between the two.
The idea of confession and engagement just by touching breasts, between women, Lala knows doesn't exist, but at that moment, she quickly thought and proposed the commitment, accepting it as if the beings of this planet understood it.
Although at first it was to use Christel as a shield and weapon to face her father, over time she has gotten used to it. She has been accepting Christel in her heart and she doesn't care that more and more girls keep appearing around her, in fact, that makes her happy.
She has also noticed strangeness that Christel tries to hide. Like special powers that he has seen Christel do when he thinks no one is watching, but thanks to Peke, everything is recorded. But since his fiancée is hiding it, he has asked Peke to block and encrypt all evidence and help no one else notice.
Especially those two dolls that appeared. Lala recognized them without Peke reminding her, Peke had already detected and recorded a doll just like the one that appeared in the amusement park some time ago.
Peke recorded the energy signature and analyzed the similarity to his fiancée's energy signature.
So he had the idea to also design a doll with Christel's powers of earth and nature.
But despite his knowledge, and his A-level intelligence, he has found it very difficult to achieve it. Especially now that he saw two dolls and they were even more powerful than the doll from last time.
Especially when, based on Maria's ability to put Christel to sleep, Lala noticed that her fiancée was actually pretending to sleep. So Lala wants to make the doll as a method of defense and deflection of suspicions they might have towards Christel.
"My Honey doesn't want her abilities revealed, so it's Lala's duty to protect Honey's secrets! Peke, let's keep working hard!"
"Yes! Lala-sama"
