《Diary of Erica Kron》Day 57
Advertisement
Today a significant chunk of people got to the point that I could no longer teach them, a little more than two thousand of them. It wasn't enough to make a siginificant difference to how quickly I'm able to teach people, but it was enough of a difference to be noticable.
It's honestly kind of amazing how quickly the elf kid is improving, especially considering the fact that his skill has nothing to do with any innate tallents in his species. With a combination of single minded determination and sheer devotion he is pulling ahead of the masses. There are a couple others similar to him, but he was the first to catch my eye and the most extreme example. All of the rest had at least some talent with plant manipulation to start with.
I managed to get a crude system working to get my plants to read memories. The process is slow and it fails to work half of the time, and even when it does work there are holes in what it reads and it damages the memories, but it does technicly work. This part is a lot harder than I was expecting it to be, a lot of the theory I know about how a brain comunicates with the soul simply does not apply to plants like I thought it did, or at least not in the way I'm using these plants. I'm basiclly going at this blind, throwing things at the wall to see what sticks. It might end up taking longer than I would have liked, but at least I will learn more about the way plants interact with souls. Using that knowledge I should be able to improve my Ents.
Maybe I could draw some inspiration from slimes, their bodies seem to revolve around the soul. Or at least the one example I have studied did. It's worth a shot, even if it fails.

I ended up talking to the Scholars a lot today, mostly them asking for my assistance with minor issues that were easy for me to solve. Most of it revolving around plants, though I did get asked about the function of a certian organ they couldn't identify. It turned out to be an oddly shapped bladder belonging to a couple different species of monster. It was designed that way not due to any benefit from that shape, but because the designer didn't have space for something more functional. Really it's just bad design, likely created by an amature dungeon. I say that but they were probably older than I am when they designed the creature this originaly came from.
They were also all talking about how popular my books were. Apparently my books are both increadibly easy to understand and increadibly comprehensive. Which I was honestly kind of shocked to hear about, you would think that people that have spent their entire lives writing would be able to write an easily understood textbook. But no, when I asked the scholars said that anyone capable of writing in such depth either has better things to do with their time or does so in a sort of code so that only the ones the have chosen can understand their works, which is weird, why would you want to obscure knowledge? unless it was super dangerous like self-perpetuating curses or nuclear fire wouldn't it be better if the knowledge was as wide spread as possible? That way it's a lot more likely for someone to figure out a way to improve on your work, which you can then go and improve on.
I should write a couple more books, there are a couple that I have in mind that I want to write. With how well recived my previous ones have been I imagine writing more will only make them like me more, which can only be a good thing. I think I will do so after I'm done teaching plant manipulation.

The books I want to write now all follow more or less the same theme; instead of being a compendium of information like my last ones were I want to write guide books. Basically how to do magic books with all of the various types of magic I know how to do, with the book itself being able to both replicate itself and functioning as a crutch for those that aren't able to interact with that kind of magic. Like say a book on the soul made out of Grey Iris, or a book on healing made out of Whitefoot. I am actually getting really exicted about this one.
But I need to do the other project I had planned with the soul first, it's more important if less fun. Hopefully it won't take much active effort to do.
Anyway, Good Night Diary.

The Limits of Limitless
Author's Note: So, new author here, nice to meet you from this lovely one sided conversation lol. I was so tired of waiting for the perfect story for me so I decided to write a few of my own. These are basically just to make me happy, but if you enjoy them too that would make me happy as well lol. ______________________________________________________________________________________ So once upon a time, there was a convienent, and slightly cliche, plot device used by a somewhat lazy author.... Which in turn, created an easily made story of how a lucky high schooler posing as a hardcore gamer dies only to resurrect in a fantasy reality, meeting beautiful women, powerful dragons and ancient beings, an assortment of insanely escentric fellows, and a certain over powered ring. Journey with them as they explore the wilderness of twisted imagination. Or for you old timey folk who like their synopsis a bit tame, here you go: Jason, a senor in highschool, is slowly failing school due to not giving a fuck. Like many people now in the year 3056, he is obsessed with the wonderful invention most lovingly called, 'True Virtual Realities'. now by using his obsession with his favorite Virtual Reality game called 'Reality Controlled', which is the first and so called best Virtual Reality ever made. it was basically the all around escape humanity wished for, and he with heaven defying luck came across one of the three cheat items the game developers left for themselves: The Limitless Ring. The ring was a support type item and had the ability to grant wishes, store worlds, clone items, grant skills and easily learn abilities. But those are just a few of the things it could do. Using the ring he successfully became the "best player" and had a herd of fans following him everywhere. It was a dream come true. Until, he was killed from a power surge that fried his brain which was hooked up to the Nerve Capsule, an unsafe prototype of the Dive gear that he bought do to low funds. The end. Or so you would think.... ______________________________________________________________________________________ Author's Note: I was, to be honest, wanting to do a collab, because to me it is sooooooo incredibly boring to write by yourself since you always know what happens next, however no one enjoys a bit of friendly cooperation *sigh* so I'm forced to journey these roads alone.... 'Tis but a sad fate tha' 'is here young'un has t' bear. The cover isn't mine, all rights and stuff goes to its artist and such.
