I needed a bit of fresh air anyways, so this would be entertaining to watch. We walked into a large garden area, a spacious field filled with many beautiful flowers. Sei looked around in awe, his eyes practically twinkling. I felt a smile creep on my face and watched him fall on one of his knees, gently snapping the dark green stem of what looked like a rose, only orange in color. He turned to look at me and stood up. "These are stunning." He breathed out. I nodded in agreement and watched him gently place the flower on my head. A blush crept on my face when he looked at me proudly.

They tried to save out the three companions trapped there. The intensive fire had broken some of the vines, but the vines were too many and overwhelming. Those bullets were useless attempts, and couldn't bring much help to the people trapped inside. Seeing her companion in danger, Hu Xiaoxian looked at Qin Haodong out of instinct and asked in shock, "Haodong, what's this monster?" "The plant is called Cannibal Vine. Any people or animals entering its attacking range will be eaten." "Really? That's the first time I've heard about a plant that eats people."

So much like our planet but still not quite right. The technicians were able to connect to their information base, the internet I think they called it, and with the translator we were able to read and watch a lot of information about this planet and the intelligent species that lives there, humans as they call themselves. The scientists also retrieved a large amount of edible plants to program into our food synthesiser. Hopefully the human will appreciate that, to be able to eat some of the foods she is used to.

She glanced around to see if anyone else had witnessed the strange event, but she was alone. Curiosity got the better of her, and she cautiously reached out to touch another plant. This time, a small patch of wildflowers. As soon as her fingers made contact, the flowers responded, growing taller and more vibrant before her eyes. "This can't be real," she murmured, her mind racing with confusion and awe. She plucked a single rose from the bush, its stem lengthening slightly as she did so, and held it in her hand, staring at it in disbelief.

nature separates us from the Heavens that created and governs among us, humans. Their hands got caught of an unexpected wild flora near them, and they picked some of its flowers tenderly without damaging the whole plant, especially the thin stem part. They chewed its flowers, which got a subtle sweet taste, not making you thirsty which any other processed sweets can do to the usual human tongue.

Sarracenia Purpurea, the world's second strongest plant magic a human is capable of using. It is a pot plant that would devour everything that falls inside its mouth, usually this magic was meant to be placed as a trap. It should simply be sitting quietly on the ground awaiting the enemy to walk past it. But due to the massive power and mana Fenrir had, Odagaia pulled it from the ground and raised it so that Fenrir's attack could not reach anyone. But no one was calm despite Fenrir being sealed inside the plant, as Odagaia could not be found. From the appearance of the plant and all the following days everyone from the forest had been looking for their mother.

The girl smiled, as she excitedly explained everything to the two of them. “How is it? It feels amazing, doesn't it? After so many years, I finally succeeded in creating perfect food like this. Ah, no. This isn't food anymore. It's medicine. This medicine will take humans to another level that is far different from before. Rapid cell regeneration, cessation of aging, everything can be done as long as someone continues to consume these foods.”

Susan smiles at the little blonde curiosity, wipe her mouth with a napkin, and answers her. "That's because these fruits are special ones, Luna. They are called the Ghostly Grapes. And are a fruit produced exclusively in Persephone's Garden. These grapes have no appeal to the living and we can't even pick them, but they are a delicacy to ghosts and other spiritual beings. One of the few foods that they can eat." Understanding the explanation, Luna went back to eat. One of her housemates, an older girl with curly reddish-blonde hair, seemed to have her gasket blown with that, and exclaimed loudly.

Even so, the situation looked familiar to him. Suddenly, two words popped up in his mind: Plant Human! That was it. When Thomas was still in the Southland District, he had seized a batch of “medicines” delivered by Lord Vedastus. Those medicines were Plant Humans. Normal humans would be grafted with a weird kind of flower. The flower would then suck the humans' essence continuously and absorb their nutrients. After that, colorful flowers would bloom. This type of flower was the only “antidote” that could suppress Heart Eater.
