Chapter 110 Florie
-----
W-Who is this cinnamon roll?! She's way too adorable! She looks like a little baby girl with pink hair, fair white skin, shiny golden eyes, and two beautiful pigtails in her hair, she's so lovely! And she's wearing a cute pink dress made out of flowers, her appearance is so dreamy that it made me remember the times when I was a little girl and loved fairy tales, especially those featuring the fairies. It is a bit embarrassing to admit it, but I was one of those girls that was a fan of Tinker Bell and always asked my parents for any of her products, haha… I was a bit in that side of the girls. There were other girls my age that would prefer the Princesses… or simply another thing entirely outside of Disney, but I've always been into the fairies.
This is why it could be said I am a fairy nerd because even when I grew up I continued buying products that were related to them, I even had a big book collection of realistic fairy drawings and even more mature stories featuring fairies, I even bought any Light Novel hat featured this race, and when I was a teenager I even wrote my own web novel self-inserting myself into a girl that reincarnated into a fairy. It was around 8 years ago when I published that into a normal book, nobody bought it of course, but I still have the physical copy in my bookshelf.
A-And anyways, I guess that says enough about my fanatism over fairies. I've been secretly hoping for them to not look like just grown humans or something with just butterfly wings, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that they were not! They all looked young and innocent, just like fairies are supposed to be, even the males were adorable.
"I-It is no problem at all! We were just passing by! Uwah, you're so cute! All of you are so cute! W-What's your name?" I asked nervously, trying to calm myself down. I was resisting the urge to pet her.
"E-Eeh?! M-My name is Florie! I am in charge of this group… W-We were right about to die against the evil snakes if it wasn't thanks to you and your party, lady… lady… what's your name?" She wondered nervously, as I was staring at her rather intensively.
"R-Right! I am Planta, a Dryad from this forest! I am rather young and I was just born a few months ago… I've been sent here by the Tree of Beginnings to aid you fairies in anything you need." I said. "We got enough strength to slay miasmic beasts."
"I can tell! It was amazing how strong all of you were! And you're a Dryad, Lady Planta?! T-That's an even higher status than any of us, you must be a very important spirit! We are so glad to have found you! I am actually very happy, I was about to die after all!" Florie was very childish in her way of speaking, talking like a little girl. She was about to cry but contained her tears as she smiled innocently back at me. Ahh~ I feel my heart healed already, she's so cute! …No, every fairy is cute, all the others behind her are just as adorable… Well, Florie is a bit cuter though.
"That's right, I am glad you recognize me but there's no need to be so stiff with your way of speech. I want to have a friendly relationship with your tribe. All of these are my friends and tamed monsters slash summons." I said. "You can see that they all helped us, you guys, also present yourselves."
"We are a trio of valiant Mushroom-kin! Name's Sporegon, knight of our lady."
"I am Magius, a magician. I don't consider myself the strongest nor wisest, but I am sure that I can be useful."
"I am Hunter, I am good with the bow and scouting."
Florie's eyes shone brightly alongside all other fairies, they seemed to be extremely excited to see Mushroom-kin, as if they had never seen them before in their entire lives- wait, I was right.
"This is the first time we have ever seen Mushroom-kin before in our lives!" Said Florie. "This is amazing! You are really mushrooms!"
"Woow!"
"Yeah, a Dryad and Mushroom-kin?!"
"What's happening today? It is filled with surprises!"
The fairies broke the ice at long last and began to flap their adorable butterfly wings, flying around us in amusement of our appearances, they were very adorable-looking and honestly, I was rather happy they were getting closer to us! Uwah, so cute! Kawaii!
"A-Anyways, can we go to your village?" I wondered. "Also why were you all the way here in the danger of the night? You were easy targets for the miasmic beasts that sometimes roam the place." I sighed.
"T-That's because…" Said Florie.
"Well, our tribe is going through a bit of a problem…"
"We are currently facing some challenges, a third of our population had fallen ill recently."
"And the miasmic beasts had not stopped coming to invade us for the rest of the day, mysterious disappearing at night, so we decided to come pick up some medicinal herbs by ourselves to make some sort of potion to heal them."
"We brought our Buffalo friend, he's very nice and eats grass and fruit we harvest, so he help us carry the things!"
"But the snakes showed up out of nowhere, from underground, as if they were waiting for us!"
"T-They even were waiting near patches with medicinal herbs…" Sighed Florie.
"W-What? Since when have monsters been this organized before?" I wondered. I've always seen monsters as wild animals, they cannot really organize that well and most of the time do simply pack strategies where they just charge at someone in big groups, but not to the extent that they hide near medicinal herb patches expecting their prey to come pick them up to attack them… that's a bit too overly complicated.
