Cypher nodded expressionlessly to show he understood.
Magical plants—they could purify the air and transmit sound. What an ordinary ability!
Whirlwind Sweep
Iris stretched out her slender fingers and was about to reach forward.
Then she suddenly thought of something.
She raised her wand and drew several circles above her head.
A tiny tornado appeared over their heads.
"The smell might be awful!"
Seeing Cypher looking at her, Iris's cheeks flushed as she snapped in embarrassment.
"No, you did very well!"
Now that Iris mentioned it, Cypher felt a little sickened too.
It was like brewing liquor with treated toilet water. Even if the water met safety standards, it was hard to get past the mental barrier.
This time, Iris pressed down on the spore without any further interruption.
Still, why was this spore in the middle of the trunk? Shouldn't it have been at the top?
Whatever. Trying to figure out why Magical World plants didn't follow Darwin's theory of evolution was just asking for a headache.
"Take a few steps back."
Repelling Spell
Cypher obediently followed Iris's command.
But why did Iris also cast a Repelling Spell in front of herself?
That question was quickly answered through this rather confusing method of learning.
The Goldneedle Sapling's slender trunk began to swell.
Golden spikes, like pine needles, started growing from it.
Cypher had thought those spikes would shoot outward.

The golden spikes shrank back, turning into specks that eventually gathered together.
Only then did the golden specks begin to sink inward, revealing a pitch-black, bottomless passage. At the same time, a visible stream of air burst out from it.
"Pressing the spore can force it to expel gas. We got lucky—the place connected below isn't a bathroom."
"I'm guessing
