The new Crimson Rondo magic runes were strange.
After studying them carefully for quite some time, Kroya finally reached a conclusion: they could make a magic plant grow a second flower, but apparently required certain special conditions to trigger.
In the sunflowers' case, only after the Red Sunflower grew a second flower of its own did it use its magic power to help the other sunflowers grow theirs.
This was a special aura-type spell.
If the sunflowers that had grown second flowers were moved away from the Red Sunflower, those second flowers would gradually wither.
To replicate it, Kroya would have to find a special magic plant that was elemental in nature, possessed two similar but not identical powers, and could use its own power to influence others of its kind.
Only with those prerequisites, followed by an inscription of the new Crimson Rondo, could it influence its own kind nearby and double their flowers.
Honestly, it would not be easy.
But if he succeeded, the returns would be considerable.
Just because he could not do it now did not mean he would never get the chance.
"I'll keep an eye out." After recording the magic runes as usual, Kroya began checking the sunflowers one by one.
His delighted expression grew somewhat grave.
The good news was that after evolving into Double-Headed Sunflowers, they absorbed magic power much faster, and could fire two Sunflare Rays at once.
The bad news was that their increased absorption rate outstripped the magic power supplied by the Magic Field Method. They were also frantically absorbing the surrounding sunlight, leading to competition over it.
Had the Red Sunflower not been deliberately keeping them in check, a battle over magic power would probably have broken out.
Wars between magic plants over nutrients could be truly terrifying.
