《Watching Grass Grow》Chapter 4: KO Again
Advertisement
Authors Note: The deeper into this story I go the longer each chapter seems to take, It's difficult to keep track of all the status changes and extra characters. I'm gonna try a bigger font to make it easier to read please tell me if you like it or not.
POV: Parasitic Seedling
[???] “(Sob) What am I going to do now (hic) without my home I’m no stronger than a human child, (Sob) If I’m lucky I might be found by slavers (hic) if not the wolfs will get an easy meal (Sob Sob).”
‘This is just depressing to watch, I only took control of an ordinary tree how was I to know that tree was the home of a loli with short green hair, green eyes and long pointed ears facing outward. When did my life as a plant get so complicated… when has any plants life been this complicated.’
[???] “(hic) I have no choice (hic) no one will help me now (hic) my life as a nature spirit is over.”
‘Guilt trains coming and there’s no sign of the breaks, this must be some sort of flag but what can I do in this situation. Little green loli girl hear my voice, I have an idea that could help us both… this is stupid.’
*Do you wish to send a servant contract to Ellie the tree nymph? Under the contract you will share ownership of Ellie’s tree which has been augmented by your abilities, Ellie will also obey your commands depending on her opinion of you. If she is treated badly you have an unwilling bodyguard but if you treat her well she will offer you everything. (Y/N)*
‘I want to say something civilized like this deal could benefit us both but really I just have an image of that girl serving my human body in a maid outfit… What am I thinking, barely a week’s gone by and I’m already fantasizing over someone other than the goddess. Change of plans, you dear loli I offer you the chance to help serve the Goddess of Life Irena what do you say.’
The nymph stood up preparing to accept the inevitable and leave for good when he suddenly jumped with shock as if responding to something.

[Ellie] “What’s this? Servant contract, but from who, and what’s with spreading the goddesses name, could that thing be sentient, but then why do all this it doesn’t make any sense.”
‘For crying out loud you don’t need to overthink this, just choose yes or no it’s only life servitude to someone who stole everything you own and now holds your only chance for survival in his hands.’
[Ellie] “If that thing truly serves the goddess then maybe there’s a reason behind all this, if I leave my fate is sealed but maybe with this thing I might have a chance. Yes.”
*Congratulations you have gained a servant a new followers tab has been added to your status system. New upgrades and abilities have been added to your growth menu.*
‘Followers huh, well let’s see what I can do with her?’
*Followers
Name: Ellie
Race: Tree Nymph
Condition: Starved, Unhappy*
*Note: Improve a follower’s condition to increase the amount of information that can be seen.*
‘Ok I guess the followers tab can be updated as our relationship progresses, it’s obvious she would be unhappy with what happened but what about the starved condition, if this keeps up my first servant will be a corpse by tomorrow. I need to feed her something or provide some sustenance for my follower; perhaps I can use pure nutrients to sustain her?’
*Nutrient Transaction
You can perform nutrient transactions with your followers the nutrients can serve as sustenance and help growth, for sentient species the transfer is an enjoyable experience. How much do you wish to transfer to Ellie?”
‘That’s convenient must be part of the followers tab, I need to check my other status tabs after this but first feeding my new pet. If I remember correctly adults need around 5000 calories, children and lolis need less than that, convert it to nutrients and we get… stupid math 1000N should cover it.”
*Transaction complete. Ellie’s status has reached satisfactory levels. Ellie will now evolve from a tree nymph into a forest nymph.*
‘What.’
Suddenly the nymph who was standing in the corner of my eye spasmed and collapsed on the ground, her breathing was fast and heavy. She started to move her arms around her body; touching, rubbing and grasping the noises that escaped her lips included moaning, gasping and a lot of request for more.

‘So this is what an erotic nymph looks like in real life, have to say it beats the magazines and videos shame I can’t fully enjoy it with my current body. That’s right this body can’t get aroused, what do you expect plant don’t need to do the act therefore they don’t need to feel the pleasure that comes with it. And as for those fantasy R18+ magazines here’s some advice, if you shove a plant limb up someone’s ass especially a wooden one with bark all that’s going to do is cause pain not pleasure… unless you’re an M.’
The nymph started to look feverous and sweat built up in layers on her skin, she was breathing quicker and moving faster.
‘That message was a liar how can anyone enjoy a nymph reaching climax in the forest when they can’t even get aroused.’
As the nymph was reaching her limit, light started to emit from her body, it got brighter and brighter until it was impossible to see her anymore.
‘That’s a good trick, self-censorship, want to get it on in public but are afraid of the eyes people give you, then emit from your body a light so bright it blinds those observers. Act now and Il throw in a free adjustable black panel, attach it down below and you are free to streak all you want.’
The light started to fade and the nymph came back into focus with some noticeable changes, her hair now reached down to her waist while the eyes shone with light like jewels, but the biggest change however made quite the impression.
‘Wow did she get surgery behind that light because those buttons have become melons, of course she still can’t compare to the goddess but still quite impressive. That evolution message wasn’t kidding that is definitely an upgrade, loli nymph evolved into busty loli nymph. I just hope some of those nutrients went to her brain a dumb beauty cause’s trouble wherever she goes. Guess while she’s past out from her experience IL check my status and see what I gained from this guilt trip.’
*Followers
Name: Ellie
Age: 250
Gender: Female
Race: Forest Nymph
Level: 25
Class: Lesser Earth Nature Spirit
Titles: Follower of a Parasitic Seedling, Tree Guardian
Condition: Happy, Content*
‘I’m sure she’s happy and content after what happened, on another note this new information is very useful. Levels and classes truly a video game character status screen, but is this normal in the world or is my ability responsible for this text. Guess IL have to ask her about it when she awakens but I need to keep the knowledge about her age a secret, everyone knows what happens when you step on that landmine.’
*Status
Rank: Parasitic Seedling
Age: 7 Days
Titles: Landowner, Monster Under the Bed, Deep Rooted
Durability: 90% (Repair with 10N)
Nutrients: 1562N
Nutrient Absorption: 201N/hour
Abilities:
· Status System
· Life Blessing
· Character Growth
· Grapple Root
· Vampire Root
· Steel Root
· Plant Sight
· Plant Hearing*
‘That attack now feels like wasted energy, gained over 200N but lost 1000N in compensation, well at least I got some new stuff, the ability to hear and see is priceless. Now about the growth menu there should be some new additions after this little excursion.’
*Growth Menu
· Root Lv1 10N
· Stem Lv1 50N
· Monster Core Lv1 5,000N
· Mana Core Lv1 10,000N
· Dungeon Core Lv1 50,000N
· Easy Capture 500N
· Invasive Countermeasures 500N
· Extra Growth 500N*
‘Monster core, mana core and dungeon core; all those things are bloody expensive it would take days to gather that much and it’s only for level 1. I’m supposed to be low rank why is everything so expensive, abilities are the same with 500N each, but then again they sound important.’
*Easy Capture 500N
Increase’s your chance of successfully capturing whether it is sentient life or territory.*
*Invasive Countermeasures 500N
Protects you against foreign threats whether it’s disease, mind control or invaders.*
‘Yep definitely important need to get both though 1000N is pricey this will be worth it.’
*Do you wish to purchase Easy Capture and Invasive Countermeasures for 1000N? (Y/N)*
‘Yes, now is there anything else, Extra Growth is possible but I already have a growth boost will another one work I already grow instantly how much faster could it get?’
*Do you wish to purchase Extra Growth for 500N? (Y/N)*
‘Yes, now to see what happens.’
*Due to obtaining Extra Growth while possessing Character Growth possible paradox detected. Begin the re-writing of the world’s current laws in order to satisfy the paradox. Note to the user this will hurt… a lot.*

For decades now, strange places inhabited with monsters have been appearing across the globe. People call them dungeons and those who enter them delvers.

He only knows that inside the confines of what is considered normal, he won’t find it. I update twice a week, on Tuesday and on Saturday. P.s.

An Extra-Ordinary Story about Ordinary People
In a different world, a different reality, where ordinary people occasionaly have extra-ordinary powers for no particular reason, we follow a number of characters, trying their best to live in this strange yet normal world. We have our first character, a currently nameless but sentinent creature who happened to find himself in the body of a strange fungus after an unknown incident that robbed him of not only his former body but of his memory, as well. Secondly, we follow Smith, a high-standing man who doesn't even need to explain which Smith he is, on top of the world, yet human enough to meet said fungus. And thirdly, we have another nameless character, who is burdened by the ability to summon things that he doesn't want. A charming gang, who will (most likely) meet at some point. --- All and all, it's a twist on the common super-hero world, where all super-heroes have somehow dissappeared, but not the possibility for new ones. The series that feature the mushroom-dude are the 123 ones, the stories that feature Smith are the ABC ones, and the ones that feature our newest character, the summoner-dude, are the abc ones. Neat, huh? Also, just a word of warning? The 123 ones are kind wierd, and you can skip the first few chapters and go straight to the ABC ones without missing too much. But I'd rather you didn't, since i really enjoyed writing them. In ABC and abc, the format changes to a more typical form, with proper grammar and stuff. So if you dont like the 123, I'd love it if you gave the ABC a chance :^) Anyhow, I hope you enjoy it!
