《Living Life as a Plant in a Magical World, Quite Strange Right?》Chapter 5: Reunion?

Advertisement

I really do enjoy the feedback but I want to end all of this already and say harem has won but I do remember something similar happening before, really, did I just make a full circle to my first ever story? Whatever, after I post this chapter I will put on the tag.

Also, for those that have good criticism to share, please tell me what I can improve on as I know that I sometimes mess up my own grammar but how often? Is the story good? Am I not being detailed enough? All of this is what I'm looking for in a big review.

Now, have a fun time reading and thank you!

-

I was lost in my train of thought, as Elucidata tried to call me multiple times but wasn't able to until I notice and decided to answer the calls that she tried to make. Even though we are in the same body, we are still unable to contact one another each other via mind communication.

[Master, what's going on with you lately? After we bumped into the hobgoblin you just suddenly ordered Kona to not finish it off and gone into deep thinking.]

"Oh that, well something seemed to be bothering me lately, it feels like I had seen someone similar to that hobgoblin as if I known the person for a long time. Strange, right? Well, I want to drag him here and get as much out of this as possible because he is also very strong."

[Is that so? I guess maybe I been a little bit too worried about you master, my apologies.]

"No, it's my fault for making such a beautiful girl like you worry about me, it fills my heart with distress." I said with a smile on my face as I looked at the blushing Elucidata who covered her own cheeks in the Hive Mind. An awkward silence covered the room with each of us looking at one another without stop with hearts seemly in the air.

[W-why is master suddenly saying this? I'm not a...]

"You're not a what?" As I said and within moments I heard an "Ahem!" sound and my attention soon go to Kona who stood there tapping her shoes in a repeated rhythm. I hold the back of my head with my neck twisting towards her and my tongue sticking out as I stare at the girl who seemed to be a little angry.

"W-what seems to be the problem Ms. Kona?" I said to Kona with my hand still on the back of my head. Elucidata looked quite embarrass with her hand's stuff into her face, I made an "Ahem!" sound as I prepared to fight the onslaught of murderous aura that Kona is going to produce. "Master! Were you just flirting with Mistress Elucidata!?!"

"Of course not Kona!? You should have more faith in your master as I am not a skirt chaser!" Daisy looks at me as well, with the same eyes, while Crow just stares into space without a care. I took in all of their disgusted until they had enough of torturing me and starts to explain the situation.

"Humph! I shall begin the report, we were successful in defeating most of the goblin warriors and being brought here to be absorbed. The hobgoblin also will be brought along with the children you ordered to be saved, but what should we do with the human women there?"

What? Have they humans? I guess that make sense if they want to reproduce children to do more of the hard labor and keep the population afloat. I start tapping my head as I looked at them with my thoughtful eyes and made a decision. "Is their mind's broken?" I said as I wanted to know that first before continuing on the reports given to me.

"From what we saw, they can still react or at least don't have the lifeless eyes of a person that gets constantly raped." Interesting, I guess they have been just brought in or captured just recently because they would have the lifeless of someone who keeps getting raped it over and over again until they break someday.

I put both of my hands onto my scepter and pointed towards Kona once more, before continuing what I was about to say. "Bring in the dead bodies, children and humans all in single file, while I will have Daisy scout out the area once more and make sure no creatures are in sight for the massive transfer of people."

Daisy, Kona, and Elucidata bowed before leaving off to do their duty but I stopped Crow because I want to ask her something. "Crow, how is your injury?" I asked because it seems like the arrow that the oh so familiar hobgoblin shot had hit the tree branch she was standing on had made her fall to the ground.

Crow tapped her face before putting down her sniper rifle and pulled out a marker and a cardboard, as she begins to write in neat cursive handwriting. She then showed me what was on the cardboard that had the pretty cursive words. It says 'I didn't really get any serious injuries but some scratches and a few vines that I will have to fix later but overall I'm fine.'

Crow ran out of space on the cardboard and began to take out another clear white cardboard and drawn on it extremely quickly. What was written on it was 'Thank you for worrying about me master, but really I'm okay and please make sure you don't hit on Elucidata when Kona or Daisy is here.'

Crow made the most prettiest smile I have seen before turning around and taking her leave as well, with her body disappearing. Did I just seen the silent expressionless Crow smile and blushed? Maybe that's my imagination and if it is, then damn I have one good imagery skill alright, as the mood in the room felt refreshing for some reason.

I sat there a little bit longer to sort out my thoughts and everything in it, my mind just couldn't wrap around who that hobgoblin was. So, I laid on the chair with a soft pillow on my back as everything seems to slow down, with my head wrapping around all the things that transpired in my life.

He kinda looks like Alex? Alex was a friend that my brother used to bring over and play with, as we hung out by shooting my guns, beating each other up, and challenge Alex and Auran to see if one of them could beat me. Really, it was quite fun, as I remember at one point, I made both of them into girls in my experiments and soon after turned them right back to being a boy.

Those were the good days, as a mad psychopathic plant scientist that did almost anything to find out what made the plants tick. Also, if I remembered correctly there was a certain kind of medicine that used the White Striped Tiger Flower to heal my sister, I wonder...

Alli probably dies, there is no denying it at this point because the disease that infected her didn't have a solution to cure it and my medicine was the last saving grace I could do for my cute little Alli. Auran will probably blame me for her death, I'm guessing he had something to do with the SWAT team as well but whatever, it's not my fault that he had such an irrational and immoral personality.

I bet Auran is probably going on a murderous rampage right now, why am I sounding so uncaring about my brother or sister? I may act goofy on the outside but really that's just a mask if someone close to me died I will only look at their grave in the cemetery and tell them they messed up or they had bad luck.

That's just my personality, and it leads me to believe that humans can be so strange for them mourning the death of some close friends, humans are such emotional creatures but at the same time, they are interesting. Just because I'm like this doesn't mean I do not accept myself as a human being and go like 'I'm not human because I don't have emotional attachment or become sad when someone dies.'

Who do you think I am?!? The main character from a novel who has this cold attitude and thinks that every human should die? Anyway, I got off track a little bit, so let's get back to having a little chit chat with the hobgoblin. I came prepared this time, as having a functional conversation with a sapling isn't very easy, as they don't have mouths.

I had started tinkering around with the Creatia's abilities and learned that I'm capable of making my own personal space, where I could connect the brain of another person with a touch and talk to them. So, I want to learn more about this look alike and this goblin beauty that actually looks like a girl.

I saw them in the big fight with Kona and Crow, as they had put up a valiant fight but in the end lost because of a flower bursting from the ground. It might sound stupid, but never ever doubt Daisy as she has the hardness of a diamond with the few upgrades I gave her.

I wanted a scout that wasn't easy to kill, so I made a few adjustments with some LF points as upgrading specific things like the body is easy for me. Changing a part of the body is something new I figured out as upgrading them as a whole will be much more costly for me using the entirety of the point, as for each body part will be half the cost.

If a single point is capable of upgrading such a strong plant (in my perspective), I wonder what will the later plants will be in terms of power. I can't just image it as of right now, but I do expect an increase for points to upgrade everyone else as well as some other things to change like my plant in general.

I take a sip out of my tea that I created in my personal space as I set up a game of chess and waited for Kona to bring over all the pieces that will be part of today spectacular event. Since, I'm holding such an event I need to make the place look bright and colorful with so much decorations that it will be like clowns inside a car.

Nah, I rather go with the dark sinister view with two comfortable chairs and a table with a chess game and some tea. I am quite the fancy guy when the time come for it, so I can get my black clothes and get ready for a good old talk with someone who isn't a girl and have a good man to man talk.

Well, I guess it would be more like plant to hobgoblin but who cares, as I already set up some cookies if he wants any. After doing so, I sat down and saw through Kona's vision that they were just about here. Taking my suit, I teleported, in my mind to where Elucidata is, as it is inside a dark circular like structure with a screen showing roots digging into the ground.

Her hands were on a ball that probably controls the roots, as she sat in a rainbow colored rolling chair to move around the place. This isn't the only ball as there a couple more, I saw her notice my presence and gives me the same look she always give me, at least when I'm not complimenting, which I mean what I say, sometimes.

[What is it master? Don't you see I'm kind of busy organizing all the roots to collect the LF points more efficiently?]

"Don't worry I notice, but it's just around that time for us to prepare for our guests, so can you have left the leftover roots into auto drive and get ready." I said as she got off her too colorful chair as she followed right behind me, and teleported along with me to the control center of my plant.

This place looks like something stolen off a Sci-Fi ship with its reflective silver light color that bounce around the place. I had walked towards a big ball in the center of the room before connecting my vision to the outside world and seeing a group of knocked out goblins children and women being piled out like they were going to be burnt in one big fire.

I signaled for Kona to bring the two who I asked to get over here to be brought over, as I glanced around a bit too handsome and obviously noticeable individuals were dragged over. I might as well say it right now, but that hobgoblin has some good armor and equipment for such a creature like him.

Also, we played nice and gave back all the equipment he lost along the way back to him but we obviously had Kona's many arms carry it just in case he wakes up and grabs it. And you might be asking why the people being picked up aren't being poked to death?

Well, Kona is capable of pulling back all of her thorns into her vines so no one will get hurt. But they aren't going to have a good time being dragged across the ground to this location, I mean image yourself being knocked and brought to some faraway place, while getting hit by all sorts of stuff on the ground.

Not the most pleasant feeling ever, but I ignored how they felt and dragged them here so, why stop? I said to myself, as I tapped my plant stem tapped on to the heads of the two of them which instantly brings me and Elucidata to my personal dark space.

I sat on the chair and Elucidata was standing tall with a sense of pride as she looked upon the two. The both of them were replaced with very clean suits and dresses that would easily strike at the style fashion of the nobility of this world or even cause a revolution when it came to the clothing industries.

The first one person I at looked was the guy who mirrored my old friend Alex who long blonde hair that reaches his shoulders and first class looks even though he was a hobgoblin. Having darker than usual skin even compared to the bright colored of the goblins.

Really, does this mean something? Elucidata told me before that hobgoblins are supposed to be bright green like how they are before evolution. So, I made sure to give Elucidata the inquisitive look and gesture for her to tell me a little bit about this strange hobgoblin.

[Dark green means for goblins or hobgoblin is that they are a variant that get special things, such as more strength, speed, and even intelligent. Sometimes they can get a special trait that is given to them.]

"Is that so?" I thought in my mind as I go to look at the two who seemed to be in shock right now, I just shrug my shoulders and gone to looking at them. "Now, now you are probably wondering 'Why am I!?!' well it's because I kept you alive so at least be happy."

I smiled my sinister smile, as I waited for them to say something towards me or else the conversation won't continue. "Are you Lamerian!?" oh my so he is Alex, Seria always said that people can be revived with their memories, so I'm not in the least surprised at all.

"I will answer that question if you best in this small game of chess." I said with a smile on my face, while I stare at them with the non-changing smile that is plastered on to my face.

...

Is this person really Lamerian!?! Did he reincarnate like me!?! Wait! Let's think about this for a moment, what happen if this is just someone who looks like him but isn't. But why is he here then? Why, is he challenging me to a chess game? Why why why why?

All these questions?! I don't have anything I could do but play his game of his and win to get an answer out of him. I contemplated to myself, with my face looking towards that smug ass look on his face with what seems to be her black secretary uniform and beautiful face.

I broke away from her enchanting face and saw Gora right next as confused as me in such a situation but I played who ever this guy's game of chess. He takes out a sip from his tea and starts the game. I analyze all of his movement in the chess game and saw the best strategy to use for the beginning.

And within moments...I lost horribly without even realizing that he had made me fall for the bait as my king's path is blocked by a Knight with a Rook blocking my other path. I say it with a sigh "Check, I lost the game so badly!" I said in defeat as the look alike Lamerian snickered at my misfortune or his domination.

"Damn, so I won't know who the hell are you!" The look alike slapped his head and made a stupid smile as he stared at me in my eyes. "You are a fucking dumb ass Alex, I said play a game with me and I will tell you." So, he is Lamerian?! Whatever, I give up damn, let's be happy that we had a reunion and get over this mess.

"Okay, fine whatever Lamerian, I give up just what the hell are you doing here." I said as I gave up trying to read his mind which should not be possible as I remember when the first time I met him, I got beaten brutally with his hands cocked on to the trigger of a gun getting ready to kill me.

I was quite frightened, as I was still in my 3rd grade, and was already peeing myself until Auran stopped his brother from attacking him from behind but...let's just say he got his ass whipped. I remind myself of the memories as I watch Lamerian actions, "I would love to talk with you Alex or whatever your new name is, but I'm here to give you an option.

As you have survived a fight with my servants, you are to either leave here with her or stay here which I don't mind but..." Wait wait!? So, Lamerian was the fucking one that attacked the village and killed mostly everyone in there!?! This really is nothing new, as I remember last time when he captured a team of commandos and experiment on their bodies for weeks to come.

I sighed as my friend's brother is just a psychopathic scientist that would kill, destroy, and experiment for the hell of it. If he doesn't mess with me or my sister, I'm fine with whatever the hell he is doing. Lamerian wants something he gets it through any means, so I will be careful not to get in his way.

"Yes, I will leave with my sister following me, whatever you are doing Lamerian just don't get me involve." Lamerian made a smile as I just remembered another thing that I almost forgot, "Also, Lamerian your brother he..." Lamerian stopped my speech and finished for me "He killed me, yes I had expected as much but is Alice still alive?"

Lamerian question me with a smile which always seems to be plastered on to his face but I know at this point, that's a mask which hides his real feeling. "N-no she is not alive Lamerian." He stood up and took a sip of his tea before saying, "I see." I got irritated at him as he didn't even sound like he cared about his sister, so. I stood up as well and charged at him with my hands.

Instead of hitting something, I hit nothing as I go through the body like some sort of ghost but I knew something was up as my sister was getting up to help me as well. She soon was brought down by his secretary looking attendant with Gora's arm in a lock. "WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU NOT ANGRY ABOUT IT!?" I screamed at Lamerian as he walked towards me with his go through body.

He picked me up with one hand and practically put me in a choking position before he started talking, "Alex, you shouldn't charged at someone for stating their opinions clearly and that is my sister tied because a mishap, why should I cry over someone in the past, in fact why should I cry at anyone's death in general." He said with a smile still stuck on his face, and at that moment the room felt ever so colder as Lamerian bright smile soon turned into a frown.

"You shouldn't do something so stupid, it will hurt you Alex, and promise me that if you ever try to talk about this conversation again and attack me, I will not be so merciful with you." Lamerian said before snapping his fingers as it made my vision disappear with the rose plant standing above us.

I should've of known that Lamerian personality was on the cold side, if I try to mess with him one more time I will die, it's the last thing I want. So, let's just leave and think of something else instead of that annoying ass Lamerian I said to myself before pulling Gora with me.
