First Battle at Vogel

Upon hearing the immature little plant's questions, Minos answered without delay. "Naturally, I want to have someone so strong and with such potential in my territory!"

"You may not be an exquisite warrior, but with your unparalleled senses, you will be able to help my forces maintain vigilance under certain areas."

"At the same time, spiritual medicines grow more easily near sentient plant organisms. So, I have many benefits to having you by my side." Minos smiled, approaching one of the branches of that plant.

"Ahh~" Feeling Minos' touch, it let out a brief groan of surprise, not expecting this human to touch it without warning.

"But... How can I believe you won't eat me?" It timidly asked.

"Simple, if I wanted to eat you, I wouldn't ask you to give me a part of your body. I would simply eat everything in front of me without asking for permission." He said in a sincere tone while Kyla watched the situation with interest.
