I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace (WN) - Chapter 1760: Original Blend

I asked Rosemary-san to prepare a rose-designed accessory case for me. I told her I would buy them at the regular price, but Rosemary-san said “It’s not a big deal, I’ve been under Kaito-kun’s care, so consider this as a thank you”, and ended up receiving it for free.

Since I didn’t feel like rejecting her kindness and insisting on paying, I’ll just be grateful for it and thank her in a different way.

In any case, with that, my main purpose for visiting has now been achieved, but that doesn’t mean I would just bid Rosemary-san goodbye here. Sitting down with Rosemary-san, who brewed me tea using the tea leaves I had brought, we chatted while looking at the beautiful scenery of the Garden of Myriad Flowers.

[Ahh, it’s delicious. It has a gentle and relaxing taste…… I feel like it matches Kaito-kun’s image.]

[Hearing you describe it like that kinda makes me embarrassed, but I’m glad it suits your palate.]

Fortunately, it seemed that Rosemary-san enjoyed the taste of my original tea blend, and seeing her in good spirits, I couldn’t help smiling as well.

Just like that, we continued chatting for a while, and our conversation eventually shifted to the Spirit topic that I had talked about with Jutia-san some time ago.

[……Is what I heard from Jutia-san, but Flower Spirits really must be rare huh.]

[Unnn. It depends to some extent on the type of flower as well. For example, I’m the Spirit of the Rose…… but roses have relatively high magic power, so there are other Spirits of the Roses beside me. However, our numbers, unlike numerous Spirits like the Spirits of the Spirit Tree, aren’t enough for one of us to be called Great Spirit.]

[I see, well, I guess it’s only natural that there are multiple Spirits from the same source huh. Is it easy for Spirits to dwell in plants that have a lot of magic power?]

[Basically, yes, but there are exceptions. For example, the Blue Crystal Flower is a flower with a lot of magic power among flowers, but the existence of a Spirit dwelling within it hadn’t been confirmed until recently, so I was quite surprised when I heard that the Spirit of the Blue Crystal Flower had joined Isis-sama’s camp.]

Spica-san’s existence was a situation that seemed to overturn the common sense of the Spirits, and I remembered that even Lillywood-san was quite surprised. With her existence, the possibility that Spirits may inhabit flowers and trees that were previously thought not to have Spirits has emerged. so one could say her appearance literally changed everyone’s understanding of common sense.

[Moreover, I even heard that she’s a very old Spirit. It’s surprising that despite having considerable power, she had never manifested before.]

[Errr, sorry for my ignorance, but is it true that the older the Spirit is, the more powerful they are?]

[Unnn. For Spirits, the growth of abilities and magic power through training is quite minimal, and our strengths tend to increase significantly over time. It’s not like training becomes entirely meaningless, but the growth through training really is more like a negligible margin. And so, Spirits that have existed for a long time are stronger. That’s why Lillywood-sama, the oldest Spirit, has the greatest power among the Spirits. Well, there are also Spirits, like Blossom-san, who are born with significant power from the start, much like Lillywood-sama……]

[I see, so it’s a racial trait.]

Now that she mentioned it, just as Lillywood-san’s true body is the World Tree, the Spirits have their Spirit body and their true body, so even if they train their bodies as a Spirit, their growth rate may not be very good.

Instead, it’s probably like they continue to grow sustainably over time.

[Does growth rate like that vary a lot between races?]

[Unnn. For example, when it comes to growth rates, the Humans…… more specifically, the Human race is by far the fastest. Training allows them to grow at a pace that couldn’t be matched by the Demons. However, Humans also tend to reach their peak quickly……]

[Rosemary-san?]

[A- Ahhh, errr, I just remembered about Lilia-chan. That child is truly an extraordinary case, but humans who can break through their limits are amazing. While us Spirits might take over 10,000 years to reach Count-rank, a Human can achieve that in just over 20 years…… W- Well, ummm, Lilia-chan does seem to be an exceptionally unique case……]

[That’s, well, true……]

She’s definitely human. She’s human but…… even still, it’s indeed a bit difficult whether we categorize Lilia as a human anymore. Her specs are just that broken.

Lilia-san’s capabilities are so significant that even Alice described her as a bug of this world. Even Shiro-san’s deadly amusement park roller coaster, which had Lilia-san as a benchmark, was something Lilia-san could ride casually…… Thinking about it again, Lilia-san is quite amazing.

<Afterword>

Makina : [That’s right. Lilia is the most overpowered out of all the people Shallow Vernal hasn’t modified at all…… She really is like a true mutation.]

Serious-senpai : [……Is this just my imagination? The way you didn’t specifically say “Six Kings”, it’s as if Airhead God had modified beings other than the Six Kings……]

Makina : [She did modify a lot of them though? In the first place, the reason why there are so many different species in the Demon Realm, and why there are so many Unique Species of Demons, is because Shallow Vernal had been experimenting with various things when she first started creating her world.]

Serious-senpai : [Fumu…… I suppose that will be revealed later on as well.]

T/N: I dunno if it could technically be considered insomnia (since all I know is that people with insomnia don’t sleep, of which I still do), but I have an irregular sleep schedule. A little deviation of my schedule and my sleeping time would be taking the hit. In case someone asks, no, I just can’t sleep if I close my eyes. Anyhow, that’s why there are times like this when the chapter isn’t translated as soon as the chapter is released. I would either be asleep or on the verge of collapsing, my body telling me to go sleep.
