Catmod is quite generous in giving me the very refreshing tea. I am even tempted to ask for a few leaves to use back home but I think it is rude so I refrained in doing so. Some snacks were being served by a few cats themselves that Catmod hired for his convenience. I was a bit curious about how he did that but I think only those who can transform into a cat and a human can do that.

After that, Catmod offered us to rest and digest all the food we have taken in. He also waves goodbye from us and will be returning later because he will have something to do at the moment. Moonlight is currently scrolling on her phone when she exclaimed which made me startled.

"Ah! That is right Kazuma!"

"Eh?! What? What is going on?"

"I almost forgot to give you the magic that you earned on your last mission. You earned it so I have no right to keep it with me," Moonlight flicks her hands and a seed appeared on her hands.

"A seed?"

"This seed is currently holding the knowledge and training process on your magic. Once you consume it, you will own every knowledge currently inside this seed and if you follow the instructions then you can get the magic."

I grab the seed and look at its appearance. It looks like a green bean with tribal patterns and it has a smell of grass. I remembered a certain jelly bean that tasted like grass from a lawn alongside with that gummy that tasted like sock and spoiled milk 1 , I shivered remembering those tastes.

"Huh? Kazuma what are you hesitating for? That seed won't have any bad taste. Instead, you will taste a sweet one so you can consume it easily without being vomited by the user. Don't get too easily scared on it you know?" Moonlight encouraged me.


I look back at the seed and steeled my courage to consume it.

'Focus Kazuma, this seed is beneficial unlike that jelly beans that tasted like sh*t, and if I consume this, I would be able to gain a new skill.'

After convincing myself a bit more, I put the seed on my mouth, preparing for the bad taste I am expecting. But I waited and not a single bad taste emerge in my mouth. It tasted sweet and instead of remaining in my mouth, it melted and dissolved.

"Eh?" I was surprised since I thought it is needed to chew but it dissolves. Before I knew it, a stream of new knowledge appeared on my mind. I scanned the magic and soon found out the magic skill I learned.

"This magic... Forestry Control?" I did not expect that it was a manipulation magic.

"Yes, Forestry Control allows you to control plant growth and sometimes, they can aid you in battles like growing vines out of nowhere to bind your enemies. Its a tier 2 magic and it is one of the basic Nature Magic available. You are one of the lucky ones to get one of it since Nature Magic seed like that is only available with 20 pieces limited in 5 months. This is one of their last stockpiles that was used as a reward against Onizuka and since you defeated that guy, then you earned it," Moonlight smiled.

Catmod appeared again and is currently carrying a pot of soil. He put it on the ground just beside me.

"Moonlight sent me a message about the magic reward you got. It was quite a good magic that will be very useful to you once you use it on your training. And besides, this one is good if you lack food in the wild. Just use your magic to hasten the growth of the plant and in no time, ripe fruit or vegetable would be available. However, I prefer that you shouldn't use that trick, it destroys the normal process of nature. Just use it if you are in a pinch," Catmod said.

"So Nekoyama-sama, what is that pot you are carrying of?" I asked.

"Since the magic you got is involved in Nature Magic, then let's try it out. Mastering it a bit would be useful for you and if you know how to actually use it would be something that can save your life in danger. And since you have to practice and make sure that nothing is wrong, let's try out that magic of yours," Catmod explained.

"Hmmm, then let's transport to my own space magic so that if accidents happen, it won't happen in the real world, is that fine, Nekoyama-sama?" Moonlight asked. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

"Sure, I would be grateful for that," Catmod nodded.

Moonlight snapped her fingers and in just a moment, we appeared on the expanse of grass again where we last trained with the giants. I looked around to check for the giants and luckily, the giants are nowhere to be seen in the space expanse.

"What are you looking around Kazuma? Are you checking if the giants are around? Hahaha, don't worry, they are not summoned at the moment so it will be safe for you to stay here. No danger being squashed to death here," Moonlight smirked.

I wiped the sweat in my forehead. I shouldn't be afraid of them anyway.

Catmod brought the pot closer to me. It was quite a bit huge now that I have seen the pot clearly. Is this my supposed training?

"Kazuma, try casting your power now," Catmod said.

I nodded and started channeling my mana and focus on the pot. Then, before I can manage to visualize what I am doing, a huge sprout of an unknown plant appeared and seems to go towering. The pot was destroyed and the roots of the plant turned bigger and bigger. I want to stop its growth but the plant just keeps on growing.

I did not plan this growth a lot.

"I can't control the growth spurt!" I shouted.

"We know Kazuma," Catmod said and just keep himself away from the area. Moonlight summoned her bamboo sword and strike the ground on its tip.

" Bamboo Sword: Plant Killer !"

The bamboo sword of Moonlight glows just like the time during our battle with the homunculus. It was quite a marvelous sight and in a swift transformation, the bamboo sword suddenly changed into a scythe...wait, a scythe? It doesn't look like one, its more like a sickle!

Moonlight swing the sickle and in just a swift swing, the growing plant was cut down. I was stuck standing on the ground that I did not realize that Catmod is already standing beside me.

"Your control over magic is indeed a bit lacking of expertise. Thanks to Moonlight, you were recommended to me. There are lots of flaws in your way of casting magic. Starting today, with the help of Moonlight, you will be under my training before you face your actual training for building experience in the Trials. You better listen to my instructions if you want to become a good magician. Warning though, I am a strict mentor so be prepared," Catmod adjusted his monocle before he smirked.

That day, it was my chance to become a good magician but who would have thought that the incoming events will be something that would cause a very big conflict between magicians and a race that was believed to be extinct will also entangle the poor me. All because of the certain individual who caused the mess to this world. And what I thought to be a bit of irrelevant case would be also connected to this case too.
