The Human Giant



In front of Yoze was a large church with numerous large colorful windows and a truly beautiful front garden of flowers. Each of the flowers was painstakingly taken care of by a young boy who looked to be only around 16 years only.

Even though the church itself and the garden were beautiful and gave off a refreshing feeling, what truly attracted his attention came from its roof. Sticking out from the roof was a giant flower with rainbow-colored petals made out of spiritual energy.

The giant flower made out of spiritual energy gently swayed similarly to the spiritual flowers that Yoze had seen before. But the scale between the flowers that hovered about Regi's and his peer's heads and this giant flower was similar to a toy airplane versus a real aircraft.

The difference between them was truly massive and gave Yoze the feeling that all the spiritual energies he had previously seen were mere toys. Even after he compared the amount of spiritual energy that he had in his body compared to the spiritual energy required to build this flower he couldn't help but see that there was a difference of more than 20 times.

And that was taking into account that the amount of spiritual energy that Yoze had in his body was truly large. If the Leopard demon's spiritual energy was equivalent to five years' worth of spiritual every then Yoze had around 12 years' worth of spiritual energy.

That meant that this spiritual flower floating above the church had more than 240 years' worth of spiritual energy. Nearly three centuries worth of spiritual energy meant that it could easily crush any opponent and demon that Yoze had fought in the past even if they all joined hands to fight together.

The moment Yoze noticed the giant spiritual flower above the church his eyes twitch as he could sense his instincts telling him that there was extreme danger inside that church. Even though his instincts were telling him that this flower was dangerous Yoze couldn't help but look at the giant spiritual energy flower with anticipation.

He could only imagine the strange and overpowered talents a person would need to have to be able to develop their spiritual energy to such an extent. Even though Yoze was tempted to see the person or creature that had owned this giant spiritual flower he knew that it was too dangerous.

However, even though it was too dangerous to enter the church and meet the entity it didn't mean he couldn't copy the entity's talents. He simply needed to use one of his talent marks to check what kind of talents are available and have his pick.

"Use a talent mark on that giant flower." Seeing such a great target Yoze immediately used one of his talents marks to gather information on whoever had this spiritual energy.

[Name: Flower Lord]

[Age: 6 months]

[Talents: Speed Reading (Grade 2), Martial Arts Comprehension (Grade 2), Literature Compression (Grade 2), Belief Healing (Grade 4), Spiritual Gathering (Grade 3), Negotiations (Grade 3), Spiritual Type Influence (Grade 2), Photosynthesis (Grade 4)]

"So this is the Flower Lord." Yoze thought to himself as he temporarily threw out the idea that the Flower Lord was an abnormal entity.

From what he knew so far about abnormal entities they would have at least one unknown talent that his cheat couldn't analyze. But from this single talent mark, he knew that whatever the flower lord was, it couldn't be an abnormal entity since he could see all its talents.

He also threw out the possibility that the Flower Lord was a demon since a demon's spiritual energy was inside their bodies. The only time it would be outside of their body was in the forms of spiritual armor, spiritual attacks, and the creation of spiritual models.

However, it was obvious to him that demons would never keep their spiritual energy outside their bodies permanently. The reason was that if a demon could keep their spiritual energy outside their bodies permanently then there wasn't much difference between them and regular creatures.

Not only that they would see the control of their bodies decline as well as their spiritual energy would now face the constant erosion of the outside environment. Resulting in them becoming weaker with time instead of becoming stronger.

Of course, there was still the possibility that this could be the spiritual model of the Flower Lord which would mean that the Flower Lord would be some type of flower demon.

However, there was one glaring issue with the idea of the Flower Lord being some type of demon, and that was its lack of a spiritual body cultivation talent. The lack of spiritual body cultivation talent immediately ruled out any possibility that the Flower Lord was some kind of demon.

"So the church is the main source of danger?" Yoze frowned as he felt that he was missing something.

As Yoze's mind raced he began to recall the first time he arrived at New Swamp Town and realized what he was missing. He had crossed this road before and even the church but since he was in a hurry to leave for New Swampscott City he had forgotten about it.

"I crossed through New Swamp Town not too long ago but not only did I not sense even a lick of danger. I didn't even sense the Flower Lord's existence at all."

"Even though my ability to sense spiritual energy back then was worse than it is now, I should have been able to spot this huge gathering of spiritual energy. Yet not only did I not sense the Flower Lord's existence I didn't even feel any danger." 

"The Flower Lord is only 6 months old so that means that whatever had caused this change must have happened in the last 6 months. Hopefully, as long as my family and I don't step inside the church we should be fine." As Yoze thought about the Flower Lord his eyes drifted toward the carriage that was holding his father, Tiki, Dreyer, and Regi.
