BXBX NOVEL Chapter 474 Spirit Yggdrasil Fruit
-----
What emerged from Erika\'s seed that we planted last night looked like a small grass with a red fruit popping out of the tip of the grass. It didn\'t even resembled an actual tree at all, and it didn\'t had any leaves either. The red fruit was shaped like a gem, looked like one, and shone like one. Its glistening beauty seemed otherworldly. I was surprised this was something Erika made. But if it took her over a year to create this Seed, it might be something incredible by itself.
"Oh, a red fruit?" She wondered while looking around. "Take it out!"
"Should I?" I wondered. "Maybe if we leave it here, it could grow into a tree…"
"No, no, it is telling me that you have to eat the fruit!" Erika said.
She could communicate with all plants; this one plant was not an exception either.
"Alright then…?"
I grabbed the fruit, suddenly feeling a mystical, spiritual essence flowing from within.
It began spreading into my hand, as if it was greeting me, strangely enough.
I took the fruit off the plant, as the plant slowly began to darken and dry out, dying on the spot.
It was as if the fruit was the only thing granting the plant "life" as it was, interestingly enough.
"Now eat it!" Erika was almost forcing me to do it.
"All of it?" I asked.
"Yes, all!" She said while nodding excitedly.
I decided to trust her as I looked at the red apple, and then began biting it.
The sweet flavor came accompanied by refreshing sweet fruit juices. The entire fruit felt like eating a fruit-flavored piece of candy rather than some fruit by how sweet it was.
The jewel-like coverture was pure caramel, and it melted in my mouth. It felt almost addicting. Since I\'ve tasted sweets that I\'ve loved them in this world, compared to my previous life that only drank blood.
In just ten seconds I had eaten the entire fruit, it had no seeds inside, and it was just pure sweetness. I felt slightly bad I didn\'t shared some with Erika, she got an even stronger sweet tooth than me.
"So? How it was?"
"It was more delicious than any sweet I\'ve ever eaten, thank you."
At first, I had thought it was merely a sweet with some spirit essence and that was all, a little and delicious gift from Erika.
However, things quickly went ahead of my own expectations, as I felt the spirit essence that the fruit gave me travel all the way down to my Spirit Orb, concentrating on it and orbiting the orb slowly, until it was completely infused inside.
"Master, something\'s going on in here!"
Eleanora suddenly called me through telepathy, as I saw within the Soul Scape inside of the Spirit Orb as the Spiritual Essence began to cover everything.
This Soul Scape was something I was able to see and insert my consciousness since I awakened a Spirit Orb, it allowed for me and Eleanora to enter this special space where Spirits are stored.
However, only the two of us could enter as of now, and it was merely all ethereal, like an illusion rather than a dimension of its own.
But that changed right now, the Spiritual Essence seemed to be of Divine Levels. It merged with my Spirit Orb, enchanting the soul scape inside and also my own Spirit Orb\'s strength.
The Spiritual Essence also flowed into my Magic Circle and my Physique, and even my Soul, naturally, everything within me was enchanted and enhanced…
FLAAASH!
"Uwahh!"
Erika suddenly fell down over her butt as the aura flowing from my body generated a shockwave.
"Erika! Are you okay?"
I quickly went to see if she was alright, quickly helping her stand back up.
"Ouch, I hit my butt, but I am alright… Hehe, you\'ve never been this considerate before." Erika smiled back. "Oh! You\'re glowing with so much Spiritual Essence!"
"I can tell…" I looked back into my Spirit Orb\'s soul scape, and something completely different had showed up in there.
The red and arid land from before had changed, no longer simply illusory, but it had become semi-material. Slowly turning into a small pocket dimension of its own!
And that was not all, as everything looked way more realistic. The surroundings and everything was still pretty much looking lugubrious and the same, a red moon, arid black and red dirt, and black mountains in the background.
However, new things also emerged, a small pool of blood appeared in the middle of it all, and several red, black, and purple flowers, alongside a dozen of dry black trees, with red leaves.
They all seemed strangely mystical, overflowing with Spiritual Essence like I had never felt before. They were surely not normal plants at all, they were special Spiritual Materials.
Eleanora was inside the soul scape when everything happened, she saw everything change, and was now wandering around the flower-covered field, reaching the small pool of fresh and shiny blood… She drank it and quickly enjoyed the flavor.
"Oh, this is such a delicious blood! It is filled with Spiritual Essence… I feel like it has satiated me so quickly…"
"This is incredible…" I murmured to myself.
And just as that happened, the Grimoire shone with bright light, showing new information, changes in my own Spirit Orb reflected into my Status.
