The Cheat Plant Mage Hides to Live a Slow Life!! ~ I’ve Been Banished from the Court and Want to Raise a World Tree but my Territory is too Strong~ - Chapter 31
Plant Mage 31
Artificial Spirit and Mysterious Seed X (6)
During the last war, I once had a plan to gather ice mages, which is a rare attribute, and travel at high speed on a sled in order to surprise monsters.
However, this was a one-time plan that has been forgotten.
The world is a boring place because there are only a limited number of people, mages, that are holding on to the technology of magic. And they are only doing it for work.
When I was thinking about it, I suddenly thought of something.
「…..how am I going to stop?」
During the great war, there was no need to “stop”.
The enemy of the empire – the monsters. Our strategy before was to invade the monster habitats and have them round up using my plant magic.
Therefore, “stop” has never been considered. We only thought of charging. In other words, the trolley can’t stop on its own.
I passed through the end of the rail.
The trolley went straight ahead at an explosive speed since the disc brake no longer works without the rail. Presently, I’m riding a wild trolley.
Now that the trolley’s speed exploded, I could only fold my arms.
「This is bad…..!」
In front of me was a huge rock.
If I hit it at this speed, I won’t get away unscathed.
I could probably make a cushion using all the flower seeds I had on hand but that would be too much a waste of seeds.
Even my magic can’t create seeds out of nothing. It would be a hassle to go back to Gartland and I’d like to keep it as a last repost if possible.
「B-brake….!」
I pinch the wheel hard.
If I suddenly brake, there is a chance of slipping but I think the damage from that is still lesser compared to a direct collision with that rock.
I also have a few red berries which are the main ingredients of high potion.
The branch between the wheels creaks.
Then, there’s a burning smell.
It seems like the branches and wheels are overheating due to friction.
White smoke has also gone up.
It would not suddenly burst into flames but that doesn’t mean this is a good situation.
「Wait wait wait! Pleeeaaasseeee…..stoppppp!?」
The wheel suddenly rolled on a rock.
My luggage and even me were thrown into the sky.
「Uwoooooo!」
This is bad.
If I hit the ground like this, I would be seriously injured.
I pull some seeds out of my pocket and throw them at my landing point.
「Grow grow grow!」
