Chapter 1948 100 Years Ago III
"I can pay you if you want." Adrian replied.
"Pay me? I know that you, nature spirits, are penniless! Do you think I am a fool?! The first one that told me that was unable to pay me within a year! Give me something that will be useful for me!" Farmer Vincent stated.
"Do you want information about this town? Information about the arrogant noble that you were talking to?" Adrian asked as he was willing to risk some parts of the present to get what he wanted.
"I already know everything about that piggy noble and her piggy family. I have been invited to their mansion a couple of times already. I need something that you can only give like a blessing, perhaps!" Farmer Vincent stated as he knew that nature spirits are beings that can grant such because he was brimming with it.
Adrian can clearly see that Farmer Vincent is truly not an ordinary farmer. He knows that the kid is a legendary farmer but to think he was blessed by not just one, but five different beings loved by nature. It is no wonder that the other faekin are attracted to his crops as they exude powerful life energy. It is no doubt that the faekin are using those crops to feed the mother three with life as the Primordial Beast Nidhogg was eating the roots of the World Tree.
"They are drawn to this farm because they are pulled in by the powerful vitality it is giving." Adrian thought as he can feel the powerful life energy pulsating from the farm itself as if everything is alive.
"I cannot give you a blessing because you are not yet worthy. If you give me this stalk, then I would promise to save you when you are in a time of great need. Do we have a deal?" Adrian stated.
"So that would mean keeping an eye on me? I did not know that nature spirits could have such perverted thoughts." Farmer Vincent stated as he suddenly hugged his body while acting like he was shivering.
"I do not need to look after you. You just need to call for me in your desperate time of need. Of course, you should call me while you are still fully alive. If you call me on the brink of death, then I might not be able to save you." Adrian stated.
"Such a useless blessing then. It would be much better if you enriched my field with your nature magic or whatever nature spirits\' use." Farmer Vincent stated.
"I cannot bless your fields because I am a league different compared to the nature spirits that blessed you before. Your body might be sturdy but the life energy that I give cannot be contained by mere mortals." Adrian stated as he knew what happens when too much life energy is injected into a living being and it was disastrous.
"You are lying! All nature spirits cannot harm life." Farmer Vincent stated as he knew that nature spirits would only help than destroy.
"If you are not convinced then shall I show you? That carrot should be a good experimental subject." Adrian stated as he saw a carrot that is only the size of a thumb.
Adrian sprinkled aether dust towards the small carrot and it started to shine. The small carrot suddenly started to expand to the point that all parts of it also expanded. It expanded to a size of one meter before exploding in pulpy goodness. Farmer Vincent was the first one to experience the carroty goodness of an exploding carrot.
"If that carrot was you or anything else in this field then I would just ruin it." Adrian stated.
"I guess you were not lying when you said that your blessing is in a different league. Still, I will not give you my permission to use my crop! You might be able to take it, but you are not able to use it since you cannot help me. You can go away and go back to nature or something." Farmer Vincent stated as he gestured Adrian to go away.
"If you need my help. Just shout my name. Shout… Quin." Adrian stated as he flew towards a forest and vanished, but he was still observing Farmer Vincent.
"Master, a temporal wave suddenly scanned the surroundings. I was able to match it the first time, but it seems I will be unable to do so the next time." Paradox suddenly reported.
"I should expect nothing less from Elder Koronn. That temporal magic wave must have been him utilizing the observatory. He must have sensed that there is an anomaly in time because I should not be here. Let us return for a brief moment as I need to know how Farmer Vincent met his timely end." Adrian stated as he opened a temporal portal and got back to Alfheim.
A few moments later, a djinn suddenly appeared in the location above where Adrian was. He looked around only to see faint traces of temporal magic scattered. He did not know which demon time was travelling freely or it might be a Traveler, but the trail ended here and was lost.
"It seems that I have been too late. Why do I have the feeling that the temporal energy is familiar yet unfamiliar?" Elder Koronn stated as he vanished once more.
To Elder Koronn, demons have different magic signatures which meant that even same spells will have different energy readings. Elder Koronn has felt this mana signature before, but he cannot pinpoint which one of the Daemos are doing mischief. He returned to the Paradox Planes to see answers.
