''Oh- Uh... So I''m a Nymphaea? Is that a plant?...'' My brain seemed to be working again, I still didn''t remember many things, but I was beginning to understand my current situation.
I tried to focus on my [Root Growth] skill, and soon my mind was filled with a lot of information, the information to use the skill.
''So... I just need...'' Following my instincts, I try to stretch myself out, until I start to feel something, and it feels like I''ve broken something, then I can feel a cold, wet sensation, which makes me feel cold and wet. it gave the idea that I was in the water, and I could soon feel that I had successfully created a small root.
''Good enough.'' The process made me very tired, and I felt sleepy and heavy, so I soon fell asleep.
Lotus Year 1
A few days had passed I think? And in the meantime I remembered some things, I think I was a human being in my "other life", I don''t remember my name, or what I looked like. But I think I was a human being.
I don''t really know what to do with these memories, they are so broken and fragmented that I can''t do anything with them, so I just used them to guide me in my new life.
I used my abilities to grow my roots, and now I knew that I was at the bottom of some type of lake or water source, my body was a small seed with several roots that curled around the ground, connected to what appeared to be a black seed. , and a plant stem that grew upwards, I could see everything around me, with a 360¡ã degree view, it was quite confusing at first, but I soon got used to it.

I tried using more skills, like [Photosynsis], [Blooming], [Lunar Conversion], [Summon Nymphs] and [Filtering]. But my instincts told me that I needed to grow first to be able to use these skills correctly.
I was able to use the [Nutrient Absorption] skill, absorbing the nutrients from my seed, and remains from the bottom of the lake, I could see some little creatures that paid me a visit from time to time, which seemed to be fish, insects and animals that live in the lake. water, I think I''m in a lake because I saw what looked like tadpoles, which is an indication of fresh water. But maybe they were just geriatrics that can live in salt water.
Time passed, and I continued my journey towards the surface, one day I would get there.
One day.
Lotus Year 2
It seems like a few days have passed, maybe weeks, my sense of time seems horrible. I wake up, eat, grow, sleep and then repeat the cycle, going on and on without stopping, my roots had spread across a good part of the lake, and every now and then something would fall on top of them, which helped me grow.
My nutrient supply in my seed was running out, so this made me very worried, so I started using the [Filtering] skill. Even though it contradicts my instincts.
The skill created some "fruits" on my roots, which then grew until they looked like sponges, these sponges then absorbed the dirt and nutrients contained in the water, and gave me a good supply of food.
I don''t know what''s in that water, but it looks dirty, everything is very green and slimy, and it seems to be full of insects and things like that, maybe I''m in a swamp, or something like that.
Lotus Year 3
I finally reached the surface! My stem could finally see the outside world, and what I saw was a lot of plants, trees, and algae growing around the surface of the lake, I was very excited about this, and I grew my first leaves.
The leaves looked like normal lotus plant leaves, but they had some cool bluish spots that glowed in the dark. These leaves grew attached to my main stem, and my stem just served as a connector for everything.
The leaves took a lot of energy, and I was getting worried that I wouldn''t survive, but when the first leaf opened, and I was finally able to "feed" myself for the first time, it was incredible.
It was like a wave of energy that slowly recharged my body and made me feel incredible, made me feel how precious life was and how little things should be appreciated.
When night fell, things got more serious. As soon as the moon appeared in the sky, the blue spots on my leaves began to glow even brighter, and I could feel my body being energized with a different type of energy.
''Is that the MP?'' Magical energy, something I had never touched before, and now I was generating this new magical energy.
''What if I...'' Activating my skill [Summon Nymphs]; I could see the water around my leaves start to tremble, and soon a small bubble of green water rose up and began to float around.
''That''s it?'' The nymphs didn''t look like much, but as soon as the water bubble spotted an insect that was resting peacefully on my leaves, it began to vibrate and then shot a small blast of water that knocked the insect into the lake.
''Oh!! Thank you lady nympha!'' I could feel the nympha was sucking my Mp, but nothing I couldn''t handle nowadays.

''Wow!! 3 years?! When did all this time pass?!'' I hadn''t opened my status in the meantime, because it didn''t seem like a long time, but 3 years had passed by me like it was nothing.
''At least I gained a lot of skill levels''
''Wait a minute... What about my "gift"?'' I had received a "gift" in the white room, but until today I didn''t pay attention to it.
''Damn... If I''m not mistaken, what was it? Mania store? Mana Store? Star Store?''
As soon as those words came to mind, a new tab appeared for me.

| Do you want to use 40 Star points for a random skill? |
The last year has been busy, in the morning I create leaves on the surface and more sponges underwater, at night I focus everything I have on generating Mp, and then I convert everything into star points.
After a long time, and a repetitive process, I finally got the first 40 points, at that point I already got a lot of leaves, and my roots spread across the bottom of the lake, my leaves were very good at competing for space, growing on top of algae and other vegetation, killing them and taking their place, so it was an easy task to dominate the surface of this lake.
The sponges made my surroundings brighter and healthier, causing the dark green water in the lake to be slowly converted into purer water. Currently the water was still very green, but if I spread my roots further across the bottom of the lake, and create more sponges, it will only be a matter of time before this lake becomes a source of drinking water.
''Yes'' was my answer to the star store purchase, and soon I received my random product.

Chapter 2: Plans
Lotus Year 5
In recent times I have been nourishing my roots, and creating more and more sponges to purify the water, there were dozens of leaves on the surface of the lake, and around them several small bubbles of magical water floated peacefully, attacking anything that tried to touch the leaves. .
Currently I have 5 water nymphs, and 1 mud crittle, the mud crittle looked a lot like the water nymphs, the difference was that they stayed underwater, inspecting my roots and scaring away creatures that got too close.
Now I was in a little conflict of goals, should I focus my efforts on water purification? Create more leaves, or start creating flowers? I don''t know what I would use the flowers for, reproduction perhaps? But I''m not sure if my flowers would turn into fruit, so I''m not willing to sacrifice important resources for something that might not produce results.

I have some star points, but not enough for a new skill, to my sadness I discovered that every time I buy a new skill the price of the skills goes up, and I don''t think I want to risk getting another "repeat" skillfor this price
The description of the star store said 60 or more", so I believe that if I use more star points to buy a skill, I have a chance of getting better skills.
It''s just a matter of time, with time I will purify the water of this lake and get rid of this dirt, with time my roots will spread across the entire surface of the lake and I will be the plant that dominates this place, with time my roots will spread all over the bottom of the lake and nothing had escaped my reach.
I just need time.

| Do you want to use 90 Star points for a random skill? |
Another year passed, the lake started to look cleaner, and I could feel how this cleaner environment was beneficial for life.
The fish in the lake became more lively, the insects reproduced more, and some wild creatures appeared at the edge of the lake to cool off.
My leaves grew more and more, reaching circumferences of up to 2 meters, my first leaves were small and fragile, less than 50 centimeters and very thin. But as soon as these leaves reached their expiration date, they closed and sank into the lake, opening a new space for a new, young and healthy leaf.
My nymphs stopped attacking insects, as long as these insects weren''t gnawing on my leaves, the water nymphs stopped caring about them, perhaps because it was a waste of mana, since the nymphs couldn''t kill the insects.
I also had visits from some larger creatures, such as toads and frogs, who stayed calmly on my leaves, while they crouched and rested.
After a lot of work, I finally got 90 star points, it wasn''t a huge amount, but it should still give me a better skill than [Mud Crittles].
''Yes'' After giving mental confirmation to the notification, I could see the star points I had accumulated over the past few years disappearing like tears in the fire, and soon after I received my gift.

I''ve grown a lot in the last few years, my skill [Root Growth] has even reached its maximum level, that''s probably why creating better roots and leaves has become so easy lately, I''d like to have better skills, but I think I need to work with what I have .

Your mud crittle killed a [Water Flea] x 4 you gained 0.08 XP
|
''Oh?'' I was relaxing as usual, and out of nowhere I got a notification saying that my mud crittle had killed a small group of auga fleas, it was the first time I gained Xp, and I felt a little happy
''Good job little friend'' I said to the little ball of mud that was slowly moving between my roots, the ball of mud didn''t care about my words, and just continued its journey between my roots.
''I''m going to create more of these little guys...'' The water nymphs were nice, but they had never killed anything, just kicked them off my leaves, but it looks like these little mud balls can do more than just scare some fish.
After creating 9 more little mud crittles, I set them aside again, and focus on something else that caught my eye.
Nowadays the water was much clearer, so it was even possible to see through it with a little difficulty. When I got here, the place was like a mud puddle full of dirt and algae.
I can eliminate the dirt in the water, but the algae is something completely different. These algae and slime grow all over the place, stealing my valuable resources and spreading among my roots, it has made me angry, I am not willing to share my space with these invaders.
But for everything in life there is a solution, and for that I found a guy who could do a good job for me, I just needed to convince him to work for me.
There was a small fish in the lake, which I saw eating the algae all the time, these fish had different colors, but most were predominantly orange, with yellow, black, white, gray and red spots. These guys were small, I would say around 15 centimeters, but I wanted so much for them to come to me and start eating this algae.
These fish weren''t afraid of the mud balls they thought were threatening, so most of the time I could see them between my roots, hiding or eating larger algae, but I needed to find a way to make them want to come back, if I could I wanted to. that there were only these fish in the lake, because then there would be no algae in this place.

The skill [Nutrient Absorption] has reached the maximum level.

|
Do you want to merge the [Nutrient Absorption] skill and the [Root Growth] skill?
|
A few days had passed, and I managed to evolve my 2 skills to the maximum, and along with that I gained a new option to fuse skills.
''Wow... Merging [Root Growth] and [Nutrient Absorption] sounds really cool... But is it really worth it? My roots already absorb nutrients, wouldn''t that just make the roots'' drainage capacity stronger?...I don''t need it.''
The option to fuse skills was tempting, but it wasn''t something I needed, so there''s no reason to rush. I can evolve other skills to their maximum level, and try to make better fusions.
''If I upgrade [filtering] and merge it with [Root Growth], could I create roots capable of purifying water without the need to create sponges? This would be more useful than roots that can suck up more nutrients...''
Roots that suck up a lot of nutrients are not useful to me, the way I am now, it''s like drinking a glass of water through a straw, I can pull out everything I need to survive, and maintain a pace good enough for my needs. I don''t have a competitor to fight for nutrients, so I don''t need to rush. My only competitors are algae, and they are far behind me.
Now, if I can purify water without spending Sp, and without having to create sponges, then I would have something more substantial and useful. since that way I could just focus on spreading my roots throughout the lake, and stop spending Sp on creating more sponges.

You leveled up to level 2
|
Last year was very peaceful, I managed to level up for the first time, and the water was getting cleaner every day. Algae-eating fish were hanging around my roots from time to time, and I even had the displeasure of witnessing one fish being attacked by another and killed in front of me.
It was pretty brutal to be honest, one of the orange fish was just enjoying life and eating some algae, when a brown fish came up from behind and tore it apart completely with a row of sharp teeth that didn''t fit on a fish.
Visers and blood everywhere, and all that was left in the end was the carcass of the fish that was thrown onto my roots, several scavengers appeared to have the chance to get a little piece of the meal, and now it was my turn.
I used my powers to absorb the nutrients from the fish carcass, and it was quite a meal to be honest, the fish contained a lot of nutrients and I couldn''t eat it all at once.
Because I''m a plant, I don''t have a stomach, so I have nowhere to store these extra nutrients, so all I can do is absorb the nutrients as I need them, it would be good to have a skill capable of preserving nutrients for a time of crisis, like when I had my seed that I could use to salvage some extra nutrients when things got tight.
I didn''t like seeing these deaths, especially in front of me, but I understand, it''s nature. A predator needs meat, even if I could I wouldn''t save the orange fish, because that would interfere with the balance of things.
The orange fish had died, but its body sustained life in the lake, feeding several other species, such as snails, worms, small fish and me.
Maybe one day I too will become someone''s food, but I''m a plant, I can always grow back as long as I have the nutrients to do so.

I''ve gotten a lot of points lately, the more leaves, the more mana I can generate, and the more mana the faster it is to get more star points.
Now, should I risk 3 half-assed skill and save some points, or try 1 good skill? Now that I know that I can fuse skills, there doesn''t seem to be such a thing as a "half-baked skill", I can always combine 2 bad skills to create something better, so I should focus on quantity, and variety, not quality and superiority. But who doesn''t want a powerful skill right away?
''No... I must think about my future... Variety over quality. If I have more options, I can solve all the problems that arise.''

Chapter 3: Fusions
Lotus Year 7
The new skills looked very promising, they weren''t a big deal when you looked at them directly, but things like [Hard shell] and [Create Water] had their uses.
[Hard Shell] would be very useful if I need to defend myself, as I can''t move from this place, I need to look for ways to stay alive.
[Create Water] was another very promising skill, I drink a lot of water, so it''s good to know that I can create my own water source in times of drought.
[Wast Wipe] was the most abstract on this list, but it also seemed to be very useful, the skill seems to be made to purify my body or the environment around me. in case it''s poisoned, which is very good.
As I looked at my new skills excitedly, I could see my water nymphs becoming more agitated, and looking in the direction the nymphs were floating, I could see what appeared to be a bird, perhaps some kind of heron.
The nymphs didn''t even want to know, and began to spray small angry jets of water at the heron, but the animal didn''t seem bothered at all, and continued doing whatever it was doing.
Soon the heron opened its wings and closed itself into a kind of umbrella, so I could see it defecating in the water and patiently waiting for something. Before long, the heron advanced with its beak towards the water, and caught a large orange fish, then swallowed it whole and returned to umbrella mode.
''Oh... A fishing bird! It seems that wildlife is starting to use this place more frequently...''
Before this lake was a real mud pit, but since my arrival I have been working on it and turned it into something more acceptable, there was still a lot of work to be done, such as purifying 100% of the water, removing the algae, and perhaps exterminating all the fish that are not "Beneficial" for me.
That would require a lot of work, but time is on my side.

In the last few years I have been leveling up my skills and gaining more star points, in the meantime I filtered the water more, and then created more water nymphs and mud crittles, now I had several little helpers out there, several little mud creatures inhabiting the my roots, hunting anything slow enough to suffocate in their muddy bodies.
And small water nymphs that launched jets of water at creatures that came close. With this I managed to reach level 4 in the last few years, which wasn''t a big deal, but still very rewarding.

My roots are growing all over the bottom of the lake, and are reaching the edges, I can feel that the lake I am in is connected to a small stream, my roots are also treating the water, and creating a very healthy environment for everyone.
My water roots have taken on a different shape, before they were just normal roots with a darker color, but nowadays my roots are porous, full of holes that filter the water.
This was really cool, but I also had to deal with the problem of algae growing in my roots, and sealing off the water intake, which slowed down the water filtration.
My old sponges were still around, I didn''t lose the ability to create them, but now they didn''t take Sp to maintain, so I could use them to create bigger and more powerful filters.
My leaves dominated the surface of the lake, and I could generate energy day and night. But with certain limitations.
My power to generate energy increased a lot, but it also came with several limitations, I generated little energy at the beginning of the day, and it increased until the highest point of the sun, then as the afternoon arrived, energy production also fell. And at night everything depended on the stages of the moon, on full moon days my mana generation count would explode, but on other days this energy would drop more and more, so even though I can generate energy every day, the amounts dropped a lot. . But at specific times and days my energy generation was so great that I could generate up to 1 star point in a single day.
Speaking of star points, I currently have 1342.2 star points, which were great points, but when I think about how difficult it is to earn them and how easy it is to lose them, I get upset.
In recent years my helpers have also grown a lot, as I leveled up, and they too, these little helpers have become very useful.
The water nymphs were now very large floating water blobs, the size of a large frog, and my mud nymphs were the size of snails.
The nymphs began to kill everything that came close, as they evolved the nymphs learned that jets of water were not the best weapon, so they used their bodies to trap invaders and drown them inside themselves.
This worked on insects, slugs, small snails, and young frogs. But it was useless against birds and other larger species of animals.
Now the mud monsters devised a new strategy, they blended into the ground, and then waited patiently until something passed by them, then the mud monsters grabbed them, and pulled them under the ground. Killing them by suffocating.
This pushed me to level 10, and made the ability to create nymphs and mud crittles reach maximum level. Which made me realize that my new skills had a big problem.
They took a long time to level, in these 3 years I have been using [Filtering Roots] non-stop, and even so the skill did not go beyond level 3.
Now I had the option to fuse some more skills, and I needed to try to find something that works well.

''Few options... Maybe the best thing would be to merge the water nymphs and the mud crittles into a single thing, that way I can end up with very powerful minions... But I like how things are now, the water nymphs defend the outside area, and mud crittles the inner area... And it took my helpers years to create their own hunting strategies, if I just smelt them, will they have to learn everything from scratch? Maybe I don''t even need to get rid of them... After all, I fused my roots with the purification skill, and I can still create sponges, so by fusing the 2 helpers I should be able to create separate versions of them.''
¡°But if I fused my mud servants, with [Absorb Nutrients], wouldn''t I be able to create servants that can generate food? Maybe they can look to external nutrient sources if one day the lake runs out of nutrients...''
I decide not to risk losing my 2 servants, I choose to fuse the skills [Mud Crittles] and [Absorb Nutrients]

You have gained the skill [Clay Guardians]
|
| Skills |
|
[Clay Guardians] - Lv 1
Use Mp to create and maintain clay guardians capable of generating essential nutrients for the soil using MP.
|
''Oh!!! This is promising, these new guards can basically ensure that the land around me is never deprived of nutrients!! This is much better than I expected! ''
Testing the skill, I see a small ball of mud emerging from the bottom of the lake, and then taking the shape of a mud slug, the little thing was just over 20 cm long and without any effort it began to crawl through my roots while patrolling the area.
''Cool I guess... It''s quite interesting to know that these guardians took the form of a slug.'' For my next task, I open the star store, and analyze my options.
| Star Store |
| Star Points: 1342.2 |
|
Random skill: 100 Star points - Or more
Random Title: 1000 Star points - Or more
Conversion: 10 MP - 0.1 Star Point / 1 Star Point - 10 XP
|
''Very well... 1 title and a 300 point skill? 1 Skill of 1300 points, or several small skills? I could also convert everything into 13k XP, which seems like a lot of Xp... But I have no apparent reason to want to level my own level, so I think I should focus on new skills. I can buy 33 new and weak Skills, which I can use to fuse into more powerful skills later, or I can try fewer, more powerful skills...''
I must admit that it is a great temptation to find out what a 1300 point skill would be, but when thinking about the usefulness of having several small skills I am torn.
''I''m going to try a single big skill... At least once I need to test if this is worth it.'' Deciding to spend it all on a 1340 point skill that was 33X the value of a common skill, I soon received my new super skill.

You have gained the skill [Solar Beam]
|
| Skills |
|
[Solar Beam] - Lv 1
Use a flower to generate a concentrated beam of energy capable of causing massive damage, the solar beam must be charged and its strength is limited by the intensity of sunlight.
|
''Wow! My first offensive skill! It seems very powerful... But very limited too.''
The new skill looked very promising, but it had 3 glaring limitations that I noticed right away. 1st it needed to be activated on a flower, and I don''t have flowers, 2nd it needed sunlight, which was a big limiter and 3rd the skill has a charging time. So I would need my enemy to stay still long enough to be able to launch the attack.
''I guess it''s better than nothing.'' Deciding to at least try, I decide to use the skill that I never used [Bloming] and start creating some flowers, they would take some time to be ready, but soon I would have flowers to use.
Chapter 4: Thorns
Lotus Year 13
Another year has passed, and now I have 3 small flowers floating between my leaves, these flowers looked exactly like normal lotus flowers, with a white color and feathery petals, the only difference was that these flowers had a different tone of navy blue at the tip of each petal, and its interior was silver, not yellow like the vast majority of flowers.
With the help of the clay guardians, and several years of hard work, I have finally managed to transform this lake into something presentable, my roots have already grown all the way to the bottom of the lake, and I completely dominate the surface of the lake. The waters still have a slight greenish tone, but when looking from above you could see the fish swimming and even see the bottom of the lake in the shallower parts.
This was a big victory for me, there was still the problem of algae growing between the gaps in my leaves, and the fact that my entire surroundings were covered in weeds and dirt, but at least the lake is presentable.
Last year I also managed to reach level 15, and that gave a good boost to my stats in general, but the real treasure was the skills and star points that I could accumulate.

This last year I got a total of 621 star points, it wasn''t much, but I was thinking about buying 3 new medium skills.
But now I was about to test the new skill [Solar Beam], and that was solely why I used my precious energy to create these flowers.
Activating the skill, I could see one of the flowers opening much wider than normal, and a small point of light formed above its core, after a few minutes the point of light began to grow and grow and my MP began to drop extremely fast as the bigger the ball of light got.
''Damn it! I won''t be able to keep this up any longer. I need to fire it now!'' After "releasing" the skill, the point of light that was the size of a marble was quickly shot towards the sky, and after a few seconds it exploded like fireworks.
The explosion generated a huge noise that made birds take flight and animals hide, and even then it was just a shot at "minimum power".
''This is really good!! I spent all my MP for this, but it''s really good!! The only drawback is that I can''t control the direction of the sun''s ray... I would need a way to move the flowers if I wanted to hit my target.''
The flowers were on the surface of the lake, so unless it was to put on a fireworks show, the sun''s rays wouldn''t be of any use in the way they are.
''How can I solve this? Perhaps creating a root around the surface of the lake and then planting flowers all around the root? That''s not very effective... I would need something like a root that can move freely, that way I could grow flowers on the tip of that root and use it as a weapon.''
A little sad about the new skill, I go to the star store, and decide to use my points to buy 5 average skills, to see if I can gain something that can help me in this situation.
