Chapter 54 Nutrients

?After several seconds, the seed has been planted.

Nathan walked near it, and crouched down.

"I wonder how long it will take to grow?" he muttered.

By a whim, he touched the soil where the seed was buried.

But something that he did not expect happened!

Wha!?

Nathan suddenly felt something in him was being sucked by the soil that he was touching. It only lasted for a few seconds.

"What the hell was that!?" He said in shock.

"Master, what happened?"

Natura, who's been following behind him, hurried over and asked worriedly.

Keeping his eyes on the soil, Nathan frowned and said, "I also don't know. It's just that, after I touched the ground where I planted the seed, I suddenly felt like something was being sucked away from me."

"Such a thing…" Natura doesn't know what to say.

But then, she thought of something and became a little nervous.

She looked at Nathan, and called him hesitantly, "Uhm… Master."

"Hmm? What is it?"

"Uhm… I think I might know what that feeling you experienced was…"

Nathan immediately turned his head to Natura, "Really? Then tell me!"

Natura sighed, "Uhm, about planting the Miracle seed, there's something that I forgot to tell you, Master."

"Uhuh? What is it?"

"Well, I forgot to mention that, after the Miracle seed was planted, it will need nutrients for its growth and so it will suck everything for its own nutrition."

Nathan was stunned, "You mean, that seed was using me as nutrients for its growth just a moment ago!?"

Natura stiffly nodded.

His face scrunched up, looking at the sprout that had appeared at this moment.

Then he started to question,

What was it that was sucked out of him?

Because he felt it, at that time, something left his body he just doesn't know what.

With his hand on his chin, Nathan pondered about it.

"I wonder what that was… maybe using appraisal will help me see what it was."

Thinking so, Nathan used the appraisal on himself just like how he usually does.

But Nathan became confused, "Why does the appraisal not show any results? Does it have a problem or something?"

Trying a couple more times with no results, Nathan's face started to become ugly as a terrible l thought appeared on his mind.

He turned his eyes back to the sprout, "Was it the appraisal skill that was sucked away from me!?"

Nathan's breathing is becoming hurried as he becomes agitated, but in the end, he shakes his head and sighs helplessly.

"Sigh… it was my one and only skill and it was even sucked away from me."

He sat there on the ground depressed, hugging his knees, dazely looking at the tree sprout in front of him.

It was growing at a fast speed, in no time it was already 4 meter tall and lush leaves covered it.

The mouth shaped part of the tree has also started to appear on its body, meaning that this is just like what Natura said, a Miracle Tree.

For some reason, that sight comforted Nathan a little.

Taking out his phone, Nathan suddenly noticed the time and was surprised.

"Ah! I've been gone for too long, the people from the hiking club get mad at me for disappearing for too long!"

Hurriedly getting up, Nathan was about to leave the space when something happening on the tree caught his attention.

Standing still, he watches as a flower blooms on one of the branches of the tree and slowly turns into a blue fruit that looks similar to a grape but just 10 times larger.

When he noticed that it seemed to have ripened and ready for the taking, Nathan cautiously walked towards it.

Reaching out, he picked the fruit and breathed a sigh of relief when nothing bad happened to him.

Looking at the fruit on his hand, a fragrant fruity smell assaulted his nose that stimulated his appetite.

"Ahh~ this smells so good!"

With eyes shining brightly, Nathan couldn't wait any second longer, he bit down on the fruit and his tongue tasted something he did not expect!

The sweetness from the fruit was not overwhelming, there was a hint of tanginess in it but it was subtle that made everything seem so perfect!

But that was not the end.

After he swallowed it, Nathan felt that something warm fell in his stomach and started to spread all over his body.

It felt relaxing as if bathing in a hot spring. Your muscles just loosens by itself as you experience the blissful feeling that it brought upon you.

Next, a familiar feeling suddenly appeared inside of him. It was the same feeling that he got when the appraisal was sucked away just moments earlier.

Noting that, Nathan's eyes lit up, he immediately tried to use the skill and this time it appeared!

"Appraisal!"

…

"Yes! It's back!"

Nathan cheered when he saw that he was able to use his appraisal again.

But he immediately noticed that it's not the same as the one from before, "I remember just upgrading this skill this morning and it was just at D rank, how come it's a C rank now?"

From what he can see, rank C is not much different from rank D as only the new column called Status and Profession was added.

Just as he was taking his time checking the upgraded Appraisal, his phone suddenly vibrated.

"Oh wait, I need to hurry up and come back. The others must have been waiting for me for a long time. I hope they're not mad or anything." Nathan prayed.

He throws all the stuff in him into the storage, the crystal box of the seed, the water bottle, and the Tree Spirit's seed.

After emptying himself, Nathan left the space and appeared back into the tower.

Without paying attention to anything, Nathan turned around and started running out of the tower.

Near the exit, he saw the writings on the walls.

"Huh? Why does it feel like I can read these unknown writings?"

The moment his gaze fell into it, Nathan just automatically knew it.

He can understand what was written in those texts!

But he did not even pause even though he wanted to read it.

Right now, it is more urgent for him to come back to the group. He can just go to this place again anyway and take a look at it at that time.

"I have to hurry!"
