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 35

Plant Mage 35

Artificial Spirit and Mysterious Seed X (10)

I’m worried because the ground is so dry and parched but….well, I can only try.

Half anticipation, half anxiety.

I turned the faucet anxiously.

Drip drip.

……..

「There is, but not much!」

Water came out.

Without much effort, I now have clean water.

But very little.

I recalled the shower in the business hotel I had stayed in during a business trip in my previous life. The water pressure here is as poor as that one.

However, if water is so scarce even in the underground water vein, this land must be really dry.

「…..well, it will take time but at least I can procure water.」

With this, it looks like I won’t have any problem with water for my personal use.

Also, there’s one more thing.

「….should I raise that seed now?」

I made a small pot plant using the handy grass.

I filled it with softly cultivated soil.

「Hmm, this should be enough, right?」

There is a risk of planting here now.

First of all, I should germinate it in a pot first.

The size and shape of the seed suggest that it should be a tree seed so I want to raise it into a sapling first before planting it to the ground.

I lightly moisten the surface of the pot with groundwater. It’s already night so I’ll water it tomorrow morning.

Finally, I planted mysterious seed X, which even I, an expert in plant magic and has accumulated knowledge about various plants, doesn’t know about.

What will grow?

The fact that I found it in the court mage’s archives makes me believe that it must be something valuable. To be honest, I’m quite nervous.

But equally excited too.

Feeling sleepy and with a sense of accomplishment, I yawned.

「Fuwaaaa….it’s a little early but I’ll go to bed.」

After eating three apples, while looking at the plant pot, I entered my newly built home.

The bed in my bedroom looks like a piece of antique furniture but there’s no mattress.

Should I raise some fluffy plants? Or should I just lay down?

I’m lucky that one of the few items I have that is still okay was a blanket.

「….good night.」

No one was listening but even so, I muttered that to myself.

It’s been a while since I had gone to bed just after the full moon had risen.

Good, I already feel like I’m living a recluse life.

The plant pot is on the small table I made by the bedside.
