Reincarnated as a Flower, Fine then I'll bloom my own way

Chapter 13: Chapter 13: I'll Take It



"Uhhhhhhhh! Why can't I find anything?!" I screamed inside the church.

It had been almost a week since I started searching for a cure for Shein, but I am not making any progress at all.

[You are just wasting your time]Aries spoke.

"Shut up, bitch," I snapped.

I sighed, stepping outside. "Let's go and check on Shein. I'm tired."

But suddenly, a boy with red hair and blue eyes rushed through the gate, breathing heavily.

"Oh, it's Bokkon. Why is he in such a hurry?" I asked.

Bokkon saw me and, in panic, said, "L-Lady Sumi! Please come! It's an emergency!"

"Huh? Emergency? Did something happen?"

"It's Shein!" he said.

The moment he said that, I used my Vines and grabbed him by the wrist, lifted him up, and dashed toward Shein's house.

"Don't worry, Shein! I'm coming!" I yelled.

As I neared her home, I saw many Beastmen gathered outside. I rushed toward them.

Bokkon screamed, "Move out of the way! Lady Sumi is coming!"

They noticed us approaching and quickly made space. I hurried inside the house and saw Shein lying in bed while her mother knelt beside her, crying. The mayor was also there, his face filled with sorrow.

I placed Bokkon on the ground and approached Shein. As I got a closer look, I was shocked—her face, hands, and legs were covered in deep cracks.

Her mother saw me, rushed over, and knelt before me, sobbing.

"Lady Sumi, please save my daughter! Please!"

I extended my vines, covering Shein, and commanded,

"Aries, use Healing!"

[Healing... Failed]

"What the—?!"

"Use Hyper Healing!"

[Using Hyper Healing... Failed]

"Stop joking around!!!" I screamed.

"Use Disease Cure!"

[Using Disease Cure... Failed]

"Use all healing and curing magic at once!"

[FAILED]

"H...Huh... Why?!"

Shein slowly opened her eyes, weakly looking at me, and whispered, "L-L-Lady S-Sumi..."

"What should I do...?" I muttered. "Aries, what should I do?!"

[We can do nothing at this moment] Aries replied.

"B...But she'll die!"

[Then let her. It's her fate] Aries replied

"Knock it off and try to do something!" I said

[There is only one thing we can do] Aries replied

"Really?! What is it?!"

[Kill her]

"H-Huh?" I stammered in confusion.

[We can at least save her from being erased by using Vitality Absorption]

"W-What do you mean...?" I asked

[If she dies from this disease, she will be completely erased from history. There will be no memory of her. Everyone will forget her—including you]

I stood frozen in shock, unable to speak.

Suddenly, Shein coughed violently, blood spilling from her mouth. Her mother panicked, holding her close.

"It'll be fine! Lady Sumi is here! She will save you!" Her mom said

She turned to me, her tear-filled eyes pleading.

"Please, Lady Sumi... please do something..." She said to me

I tried to use my vines to write something on the ground, but the floor was made of wood...

[Make your choice before she completely disappears] Aries speaks

I looked at Shein and made my decision.

"Alright... do it."

A green light started to glow around Shein and me.

Vitality Absorption!

The green light shone brightly, stunning everyone in the room.

But then—

[Notice: Shein is offering you her body]

"Huh... Offering her body?" I asked

[Positive. If you accept, your consciousness will be transferred to her body] Aries replied

"Oh... that means... she won't completely die. At least her body will be—"

I was about to accept, but—

Aries suddenly speaks

[Accepting will be a bad idea]

"Huh? What do you mean?" I asked

[If you accept, you will regain all human components—including emotions.]

"Huh? So what's wrong with that?" I asked

[Until now, you have lived without emotions.]

I fell silent. I didn't understand.

"Stop joking! What do you mean I've been living without emotions?!"

[Don't ask me. Ask yourself] Aries replied

"I... I am sad right now! Shein is going to die!"

[Are you really sad?] Aries asked

"Huh...? I am sad... right...? I am..."

"I was scared too when I fought monsters!"

[If you were, then why did you rush into battle without hesitation?] Aries asked again

"Because I... I..."

I tried to say something, but no words came out.

[All this time, you were pretending to have emotions because you were once human in another world.]

[Even I was surprised at how well you could pretend to have emotions... how well you could lie to yourself.]

"I... really am...?"

[Do you remember when you reincarnated? You were just a seed underground. Do you know how long you stayed there?.... For Three years.]

"H-Huh...?" I gasped in surprise or was I even surprised...?

[A being with emotions would have gone mad from the darkness and loneliness, but you stayed there... unaffected.]

At that time i realized that everything Aries was saying—was true.

[If you accept this offer and regain your human body, every suppressed emotion—from before and after your reincarnation—will flood into you at once. You may not be able to handle it... You may become a monster.] Aries said

I thought deeply then replied

"...If I turn into one, then... make sure you destroy me, okay, Aries?"

[...]

[Offering Accepted]

A bright green light enveloped us, consuming the entire room. Everything faded into darkness.

---

I slowly opened my eyes. I was standing in a vast, empty white space.

"Where... am I?" I asked

Then, a voice came from behind me.

"Lady Sumi..."

I turned around.

It was Shein.

"Shein..." I said

She smiled warmly.

"Thank you, Lady Sumi." Shein said

I stepped toward her.

"Shein, come with me. Everyone is waiting for you!" I said to her

She shook her head.

"No... They are waiting for you." She replied

"H-Huh?" I said in confusion

She spoke again, smiling.

"I am giving you my body, my will, my dreams—everything."

"What are you saying?!" I screamed. "Why are you giving me these things?! I don't want them! I just want you to come with me!"

She smiled gently and spoke

"Thank you for everything, Lady Sumi... Goodbye."

Her body began to fade.

I tried to extend my vines to catch her—but there were no vines. Instead, I saw hands. Human hands.

I was confused. I touched my face—it was... a human face.

Then, a reflection appeared before me. It was Shein.

No... It was me.

Suddenly, Aries' voice echoed.

[Humanoid Evolution Started]

My short black hair slowly turned white. My black eyes turned completely green.

[Humanoid Evolution Successful]

A brilliant green light flash blinded me.

[Vitality Absorption Successful]

---

The green light in the room faded away, and I found myself lying in bed. The Beastmen stared, stunned.

Shein's mother leaned over me, her voice trembling.

"Shein... are you o-okay?"

(Huh...? What is happening?) I thought.

Then Aries spoke.

[New function unlocked]

[..... Emotions]

Suddenly, my mind went blank.

Memories flooded into my brain—my past life, my current life, the monsters, the beasts, the battles, the skills, and... Shein.

My head spun violently. My body felt crushed under the overwhelming weight of emotions.

I screamed.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Everyone panicked.

"Shein, what's wrong?!"

"Shein, are you okay?!"

When evething was happening inside

In outside, a bird-like creature with Spiky Wings and long legs soared over the village looking at the house from sky. A man clad in full alive armor was sitting on top of it.

The bird turned and start to fly away,

It went away flying out from TEOD Island.
