Chapter 91: Flower Trails and Spa Tales
Sunlight streams through the swaying canopy as the team makes their way through the forest’s winding paths, led by the three newly empowered witches. Only... they don’t walk anymore.
They fly.
Wherever their feet hover, flowers bloom. Vines stretch toward the sun, leaves unfurl, and even the air feels cleaner. Birds chirp in harmony, and woodland critters peer out from the brush with wide, glassy eyes.
Behind them, the team strolls in awe.
"Okay," Sera says, squinting at the nearest witch. "Are they, like, half-goddess now? Because this is giving serious main-character energy."
"They do look kind of divine," Penelo whispers, cheeks flushed, eyes sparkling with admiration.
Pip walks just behind the witches, shoulders back and chin high, basking in the enchanted air like a blooming god of spring. The forest responds to his every step, flowers burst open, vines curl affectionately around his feet, and even the squirrels salute him.
One stands at attention with a nut balanced on its head as Vuvi raises an eyebrow. "Pip... did you get new powers from the Seedmother or something?"
Pip nods proudly and throws out a casual wave of his hand. A wave of blooms ripple outward from the gesture like a technicolor sea of petals, and several vines spiral from the earth to form a crown around his head.
Penelo gasps. "Nature subclass unlock!"
Zora clutches his heart midair and gasps. "Unbelievable. He’s like a golden woodland deity now."
Veena crosses her arms. "Still doesn’t make him cooler than you?"
