Chapter 11: Useless skills
Mo Qiang was really disappointed on the other hand, Little Jiao had her fingers in her ears with her eyes closed as she ignored the cries of the woman who was blaming her.
" This was the only body available at that moment, there was nothing I could do," Little Jiao who was sitting on top of the cabinet turned and looked at Mo Qiang with a sullen look on her face as she narrowed her eyes and said, " And why are you crying so much? This body type is rather famous among the women of your world right?"
" But…But I am more into shy and innocent type," Mo Qiang complained as she looked down at her rather voluptuous figure. " You have no idea but it's really hard for women like me, do you even know how heavy these are on our waists? I wanted to be a slim one in my next time life."
To think she will have to withstand the same pain ricocheting in her lower body all over again. Mo Qiang was not looking forward to that at all.
" Wouldn't it be easier for you to reel in mer with this body?"Little Jiao questioned and that only made Mo Qiang narrow her eyes and glare at the annoying little thing. " Are you being serious? Do you not see what kind of this woman was? It will be a surprise if I can even seduce an idiot with this woman's personality!" Her exclamation made Little Jiao nod her furry head as her head as she said,
" You are right about that, you are so unwanted that even if you take your clothes off no one would want you."
"Let's make sure that we don't have to fall to that point," muttered Mo Qiang as she pushed herself off the floor on which she was sitting down and then started to take the obnoxious portraits of the young mer with whom this woman was once obsessed with since she was not here to think about romance, she might as well take these things down.
" Oh, are you taking them down?" Little Jiao spread her wings and then flew down the cabinet as she sat down on Mo Qiang's head and then said, " Do you really have to? He looks rather fine."
" I will start having nightmares if I continue looking at his face day and night," Mo Qiang remarked as she tore another portrait down and then threw it in the trash can. Since this body was hers now, then she was going to live this life according to her wishes.
It took a long time to take down the portraits before Mo Qiang could sit down and talk properly with Little Jiao, with her legs crossed Mo Qiang looked at the floating blue screen that only she could see and then stared at the number of skills that she had at the moment.
[ Green fingers—— can grow any crop.
Current level 1, fulfil the first mission for advancing to the next level.]
[ Summoning spirits—— raise the favourability of Mo Xifeng by eight points.
Required fp for summoning = 10
Current fp= 2 .]
[ Poetry formations.]
[ Love ballad singing ]
Mo Qiang's brows twitched as she looked at the last two skills and then turned to look at Little Jiao and asked, " What is this?"
" We fairies of nature like to hear songs and poems," replied the little squirrel as she sat in Mo Qiang's lap. " This will help you in the progression of your mission. You might not believe it but there was once a princess who had an entire forest on the tips of her fingers just because she could sing in a beautiful voice."
Mo Qiang had no interest in singing love ballads for animals and crops like some princess which was why she skipped reading the entire thing and then dropped her gaze to the mission that was in front of her.
[ Mission first plant at least fifty maple trees and oak trees—— raise the level of oxygen.]
"Are you kidding me? You want me to plant fifty maple trees and oak trees, that's like hundred trees! How long do you think it's going to take and that too without any fertile soil or tools?" Mo Qiang looked at the tiny spirit that was sitting on her lap, this thing was seriously dreaming if she thought that she could fulfil this mission.
Her feet will be dangling in the grave by the time she will be done with this mission!
" You will be fine, there is no time limit you can take your precious time and did you forget? You have your green fingers with you, as long as you irrigate a land with your hands and sow the seeds after washing it with water that is touched by your fingers, you will be fine. The only downside is that you will have to advance to the next level and raise your current level of the green fingers to plant more complicated trees."
" And where do you think I will find the seeds of these trees? Maybe you missed the memo my dear fairy, this place is completely infertile and there is no sunlight, I bet there is not even clean water." Mo Qiang spat through gritted teeth.
" You do not need to worry about that with my powers there is no need for sunlight… and you can purify a limited amount of water as well… as for the seeds … I am sure you will think of something." Little Jiao tried to scramble off Mo Qiang's lap after speaking but the latter was quicker than she was, Mo Qiang stretched her hand and then clenched her fingers around the small squirrel before grinding out,
" Listen here you little sh*t," she sneered down at the small squirrel. " If you think I am going to work like your slave then you are very wrong, I want something in return as well. You cannot just dump a task of making an omelette on my head without a chicken in sight and then scamper away."
