Volume 2 Chapter 11: A Giant Forest!
The next day, Keith woke up and stretched his arms into the air. He yawned and got out of his bed. He walked over to Aria, who was awake as well, "Aria, do you not get any sleep at all?"
Keith was always surprised to see she was awake.
Michael told him before that she was nocturnal and didn't need much sleep. But it was more like she hadn't even gotten a wink.
"Hooo!" Aria nestled her head into Keith's hand. Keith smiled as he patted her head in response.
"Yawn!" Fira started to wake up once she heard Keith waking up. She floated towards Keith and rested on his shoulders, "Good morning, Keith."
"Good morning to you as well." Keith smiled. Fira tilted her head as she asked, "What are you doing?"
"Morning stretches." This was a habit of Keith. He did morning stretches to get his blood flowing.
"OOO, I want to do it too!" "Then follow what I do." Keith smiled as he stretched his arms into the air. Fira followed his movements on the table. Once he had finished,
"Feel good?"
"Mmhmm, Mmhmm!" Fira nodded. While Keith was ready to get breakfast, someone knocked on the door,
"Young Master! We have a situation!"
"Hmm? What's wrong, May?" Keith tilted his head.
"You will understand once you see it!" May quickly suggested. Her expression was white. What happened? Keith didn't wait as he followed her.
Ah. When Sophia brought him to the garden. There were many butlers and maids there. Keith understood why Sophia was so worried.
"What in the world happened here?!" Keith stared at the garden in wonder. What he saw was something he never expected! Those vegetables were gigantic! Keith blinked his eyes a few times.
"Ahh! They're done!"
Keith turned to Fira, "You're the one who did this?"
"Hehe. Did you like it?"
"But you said it would take a few days for these vegetables to be ripe."
Fira stuck out her tongue, "Ehehe, I lied. I used a lot of my magic to make it grow faster and bigger!"
"...I think you went a little overkill." Keith gave a light chuckle. It was pretty overkill. It was three times the size of what it was supposed to be! And the vines were sticking out from the garden like no tomorrow.
"Did I?" Fira tilted her head, clueless about what she did. Keith sighed as he turned to May and the rest, "There's nothing to worry about. The vegetables are ripe."
"Wow! They grow to be so big?!"
"That's incredible!"
Hearing Keith's words, the butlers and maids sighed in relief. They didn't say anything else and went back to work.
"Next time, can you keep the garden inside the square?"
"Sure!" Fira nodded her head as she knew what to do. Now that's settled, what do I do with the plants? Keith stared at the garden.
The vegetables are supersized! Keith looked at the tomatoes in the garden. He obtained those seeds a few days ago.
He planted two types of tomatoes: cherry tomatoes and heirloom tomatoes. But the sizes were different from what he expected. The cherry tomatoes became the size of a regular heirloom. The latter became half the size of a watermelon!
Keith never expected something like this.
"Fira, which ones can we eat?" From the looks, some tomatoes were ripe while others needed a little more time.
"Mmhmm!" Fira flew around the garden, "You can eat these and this one too!" Fira started to point out which ones they could eat.
"May, help me pick them up."
"Understood, Young Master!" The two of them started to pick up the vegetables that were ripe. And when they finished picking them, Keith was amazed.
Look at the size of these things! Keith couldn't believe they were so big!
"We got to try it!" Keith smiled. He grabbed them and brought them over to the kitchen. Gus was there. He stared at the group.
And when Gus saw the size of those vegetables, he had to rub his eyes,
"What are those things?! Why are they so big?!"
"Explain later. We have to try it first!" Keith shouted. He took a few cherry tomatoes and washed them in the water. Once he did, he handed one to each of them.
They all gulped. The redness on the cherry tomatoes shined like a ruby.
They all took a bite of it. And when they did, a burst of flavor rushed into their mouths! The cherry tomato was so sweet!
It was as if they got sent into a different dimension! The juices dripped from Keith's mouth. He couldn't believe how tasty it was! How could there be such a flavor out there?!
These tomatoes are so much better than the ones in my previous life! It exceeded his expectations!
It's time to make something great! Keith took the tomatoes and was ready.
