I Was a Loner, but My Class Got Summoned to Another World… - Chapter 70 - Perfect Spy

After having Kai receive treatment in the church, the team was back together, this time in the Rosengard Mansion.

It would take a few days for his bones to be fully repaired, a process that needed to be done slowly to ensure they didn’t set incorrectly.

They were busy discussing their plans.

Today would probably be his last day in the capital, as he needed to leave early the next day.

“I have all the food I need for my beasts for a good while. Thanks for the help, Rubina,” Logan said.

He took the time to thank her more formally than usual, as he had yet to learn her plans.

“Well, about that. I spoke with my father, and it seems I don’t have much to do here…” Rubina paused, trying to gauge Logan’s reaction.

“So then…?” the boy asked, looking straight at the red-haired girl. She wore a red dress with blue sapphire-colored accessories—a combination that made it impossible to take his eyes off her.

“It means that I will also go. You need someone who knows about various monsters, their food, and care, right?” she tried to convince him, worried about being rejected.

“That is good news, then. I will have an easier time,” Logan smiled, petting his little fox Luna, who seemed to never want to grow.

Zephyr was perched on his shoulder, one wing over its face as it slept.

“You know, we are here too… and it’s nice to have you with us, Lady Rubina,” Kai said, lying on a bed with half his body bandaged but otherwise fine.

“We will need your expertise. I think it’s a good choice,” Chloe added, sitting next to Kai. She watched as the boy struggled to pick up a glass of water and got up to help him.

“I bet you’re glad you won’t be the only girl now. Anyways, what do you need to do, Logan? I am sure you are heading back to the castle today,” Rubina commented, noticing the boy’s unease.

“Sorry about that. Yes, I will go back. Tomorrow we will be leaving two hours after sunrise. It will be the last night I see my class for a while,” Logan said, feeling sad and anxious.

“If it’s like that, I think it’s the best time to leave. As for your knights, they should stay here so Kai can let his wounds heal faster,” Rubina suggested, knowing the boy needed personal time with his class.

“I will do that then. I will come back early tomorrow. I’ll see you all tomorrow.” Logan got up and exited the mansion, taking only his smallest creatures with him.

As soon as he arrived at the castle, he fed his plant, thinking about what he would do with it.

The beautiful rose could not speak, but it sensed its master’s feelings.

Using more water than usual while thinking about his upcoming conversation with Lisa, Logan heard a few pings.

The plant’s level had grown, but this time it did not just end with a chime.

As with his other beasts, he began to see a change with Scarlet the Crimson Majesty.

The plant began to change, it did not grow but instead produced a large bulb, the plant radiated as with his other beasts, it was shining red and green until it finished.

“What happened, where is the change…” Logan mumbled as he inspected the plant, the bulbs was the only real change along with the growth of many other flowers.

As he touched the bulb this began to open slowly, withing it a small seed emerged, only that it wasn’t a seed, it was a part of the same plant.

[Name: Scarlet / Species: Greater Crimson Majesty / Level: 9 / Blood Mark: Right Ankle / Loyalty: 19/100]

Str: 1 / Agi: 1 / Dex: 4 / Con: 4 / Int: 5 / Char: 14

Scent of Serenity: Emits a calming fragrance that soothes those nearby, reducing stress and attracting prey.

Hyper sense: Detects nearby presences through vibrations and movements around the plant.

Thorny Defense: Protect itself using thorns found in its vines if attacked.

Splitting Blossom: Can detach a small portion of itself in a form of a bulb, which retains a connection to the main plant. This fragment can move independently, gather information, and relay it back to Scarlet.

Whispering Petal: A detached petal from Scarlet can attach itself to a target and transmit audio and visual information back to Scarlet. This petal can blend into the environment, making it difficult to detect]

The truth was that it did not change much; it only gained the ability to make a part of itself portable.

As Logan’s hand touched the bulb, it detached itself from the plant, growing new vines that gently ensnared his arm.

It became a sort of bracelet that he could wear.

“So I guess it’s true; the evolutions try to take on a form that helps me…” The boy welcomed the change, as he always thought of what he would do with this plant.

It was in a perfect place to spy on the kingdom as he left, and with its new skill, Whispering Petal, it could use its petals to check on those it got attached to.

Although it was not yet time for it to shine, its intelligence was still lacking as a plant organism, only producing bzzz noises he felt through his link.

But one thing did change.

Instead of speech, it produced a type of video replay as he felt something strange with his link.

He closed his eyes and saw himself—a petal in front of him was sending him live feedback of what it sensed around it.

It was not in color, nor was it a video anyone could see normally.

It was what the plant detected around it, sort of like sonar, or so Logan imagined.

[Looks like you wanted to come with me, Scarlet,] Logan said as he petted his new bracelet. He noticed how the plant in front of him shook a little in reaction.

“That is good, I will need you also…” He then thought of what else he could do. Suddenly, an idea came to mind.

He wondered what would happen if he buried a few shards of mana next to his deep red flower.

He began gently clearing a part of the dirt and placed a few shards next to the roots of the plant, knowing that today would probably be the last day he could feed it, or at least the main body of the flora.

As soon as he finished, he saw how the roots were wrapping around the crystals, as if hiding them from the roots of the other vegetation.

Logan petted the pedals of his flower one last time as he left the place.
