"Huh, I guess the most affordable is Earth Topaz, it is relatively not so rare as the other two… Rainbow Crystals are very rare and contain all elemental magic essence, while Turtle Shell Stones can heal 50% HP when activated using mana and can even extend lifespan by ten days!" I said. "They're really the most expensive ones, huh?"
"You can actually use these other ones, any spiritual stone works, but those are the most effective. Let's try many combinations around the fields and see what's more effective." Said Helga.
"Sure, let's do that then!"
I never thought mining and farming would go hand by hand as much as now.
Like that, we took out some the stash we had, using all our Earth Topaz, deciding to use a few Rainbow Crystals, Turtle Shell Stones, and the other elemental spirit stones, such as Wind Emeralds and Flare Rubies, which could be used for a series of accessories, weapons, and armor, but that we are wasting out in this instead!
Merely smashing the ores with my bare hands did the trick, as the shattered into tiny pieces, and punching them several times grinded them into dust of various colors. Magical essence flowing over this little magical dust.
"Now, Phantom Familiars, spread this dust around, separate each dust in their own unique area!" I said, as I sent off flying snakes and flies everywhere. The Dwarves were once more surprised.
"Amazing, she can even summon ghosts shaped as beasts?!"
"What can Necromancers not do?!"
"They appear to be the ultimate class."
Well, I don't know about that…
I've barely interacted much with the entire world as a whole to be honest. I haven't really fought any high ranked human or something either. Nor I am honestly interested on that either. So I don't know much of the difference between classes and everything there is.
Maybe if I were to fight something like an A Rank Adventurer or an S Rank Adventurer, I would be able to figure out something? Maybe? Though I have no real idea and might never truly realize it. Perhaps I should try to meld with human society once more to know all these things.
The dwarves got their equivalently strong warriors too, mostly those at high places in society, though they rely on a lot in their golems and magic weapons as well. I haven't meet any of these strong dwarves' guys, but none of them is currently said to be the most unbeatable ever or something.
And because dwarves are a very work-centric society, people that is strong just because is not praised as much, and the hard workers that do their best are more praised. So these strong people often are working hard and not really relying on attention or being famous. Sometimes they become figures of high respect through efforts and hard work, becoming guild leaders and other things.
Probably those guys we saw the other day in that conference might had been the strongest out there. It is said that Ruby and her siblings all are amazing magicians but might be even stronger by using the power of their magic tools and golems.
Anyways, there are bigger threats than the tiny humans anyways so I shouldn't really care much about them, the moment of truth will come in that conference they'll have with all the duchies leaders gathered together, so I'll be able to test if they're any stronger in that moment.
For now, there are more important things indeed, such as the farm!
My Phantom Familiars spread out the magic ore dust around the entire place, as the Undead and the rest of our group continued plowing the land, more and more, relentlessly, and endlessly. My plan was simply, we were not going to care about nature at all and plow the entire piece of land, barely any trees will be left behind that won't be those of fruits!
However, a tiny girl and her two big siblings were excerpt of working because they were children, and I am not into forcing kids to work. Nyx, Takeshi and Laura were playing around the grasslands and in the plowed soil.
Little Nyx was walking in all fours while waving her tiny tail, as she jumped like a frog from time to time whenever she spotted a little critter crawling out of the plowed soil. Her self-assigned task was to slay them!
Suddenly, a tiny mole emerged out of the ground. It wasn't a monster, but a normal mole. These critters might look cute but they're a menace for farms, they must be exterminated.
Nyx jumped like a small frog, soaring by using her tiny wings and then catching the mole with her tiny claws.
The mole struggled pointlessly as Nyx opened her jaws and ate it whole.
Her cheeks were filled with mole as she crushed it and swallowed it. A rather terrifying scene for most people, even the dwarves, but we found her very cute with Lucifer.
"T-That girl's scary…"
"She's half dragon after all."
"Yeah, yeah… I guess those kids are different."
"Yeah! Isn't she the cutest?!" I asked happily.
Nyx continued hunting small critters. Rats, big crickets, frogs, toads, moles, and worms that popped out of the plowed soil, she was having a feast.
"She's really stuffing herself full, just how much does she eats?" Wondered Takeshi.
"Ugh, is her stomach going to be alright?" Wondered Laura.
"Craaah!" Onyx, the Abyss Phoenix the two kids hatched seemed scared of Nyx as well, I could notice it within the bird's eyes.
Oh, and talking about that bird, it had grown bigger, but it has the power to shapeshift into smaller size, so most of the time it has the size of a little canary to sit over Takeshi or Laura's heads. He seems scared of me and the rest, but it has grown attached to the children. I might trust him as a good guardian, I guess.
"Nom…" Nyx suddenly grabbed a rat from the soil and offered it to Takeshi. "Rat! Yummy!"
Aw, she's so cute offering a rat!
