Chapter 70: Dinner Date
“Mycomancy is an advanced form of magic that is derived from plant magic, Dendromancy.
“Originally created for purely agricultural purposes, this type of magic allows for the manipulation of various types of fungi. It can stimulate rapid growth resulting in giant mushrooms. The fungi can also be manipulated through this type of magic to take on countless unique qualities that are both useful for food and pharmaceutical production.
“Mycomancy is also very flexible as a type of magic. While not primarily known for its offensive capabilities, mushrooms can be altered through mycomancy to take on qualities that would be helpful in combat situations. An example being boom-shrooms, a type of mushroom that can violently explode and only exist through the use of mycomancy. As such, this magic can be used in situations where its user is required to fight.
“However, mushroom magic is more known for its non-combat uses.
“In terms of food production, Mycomancy can create edible mushrooms that can grow and thrive in all kinds of harsh environmental conditions. As long as the mushrooms created with this magic have access to water, they can be grown almost anywhere.
“It also surprisingly doubles very well as a type of healing magic. In recent times, the most prominent example of this magic healing ability is the mycelium mesh. Developed and produced by archmage Yaren Zuzanna, this mycelium mesh is a pharmaceutical product that is capable of replicating human cells. Primarily used to allow those without healing magic to reattach severed limbs.
“As such, people capable of using this type of magic are highly sought out after. However, this magic is very rare. Due to the difficulty of learning and mastering this magic, there are only 53 recorded mages in the current day capable of using it.”
