Chapter 15 - Flying tiger and points

"Seriously.." Coco had never thought she would ever want the ground to swallow her whole in this world.

She thought that she would live peacefully in the mountains with Lala!

She had died once before she could graduate and was given the scroll system so thought that she would only plant crops, but it seems like she needed to kill animals as well!

As if to mock her, the poison tiger that she needs to eliminate came out of the bush. It doesn't look like your average tiger, it's almost as big as the banana tree behind her and its tail— with the stinger shining under the sunlight— is already pointing at her.

Her big chocolate colored eyes got as wide as saucers at what she saw.

"T.. The tiger has wings!" Coco cried out as she started to run away from the predator, "Why does it have a damn wing?!"

"I told you that it's flying!" Lala screamed back, clutching Coco's hair so the wind wouldn't blow her away. Coco was running very fast to get away from the tiger which was rough for the fairy because she's only two inches tall.

Coco doesn't have any skill that can kill. She only has her passive skill that she got from unlocking [Green Fingers] and that is..

"Whatever! You dang tiger— stop chasing me and take this!" She used the sole of her wooden sandals to stop her tracks, she skidded a few times before stopping completely then the moment she stopped, she whipped her body around to face the approaching tiger.

She clenched her right hand, her lucky and dominant hand, in the air— aiming for the flying tiger.

The tiger flew towards her at an alarming speed with its stinger pointing at her, she merely dodged the stinger while aiming for the tiger's stomach.

She landed a strong blow on the tiger's gut— it let out a roar, salivating, but after a second, its eyes turned white and its wings stopped flapping.

Coco gasped loudly and dramatically when the large animal suddenly collapsed in front of her.

[Strength]! The passive skill of hers worked like a charm! Her face brightened up, she let out an obnoxious laugh, "Haha! No one can kill this world's Coco!"

With the tiger dropped on the ground, she thought that it only passed out because how could a human like her can kill it with a mere punch, right? However, the sound of a mission being completed echoed in her head.

Well, it looks like she killed it in one blow.

[ Main Quest {2} done! Receiving rewards..]

"You're so strong, Coco!" The fairy squealed and embraced Coco's face quite tight in the spur of her delight, "I knew you'd be able to do it! I've never doubted you for a second!"

Coco blinked and stared at the scroll in front of her before she let out a sigh, a smile creeping into her lips.

"You were like woosh! Boom! Bam! Then you went bang!" Lala squealed, mimicking get earlier movements and throwing punches in the air.

Coco could only shake her head and chuckle at the fairy's antics. She dropped down beside the tiger to take a rest. It's already dead so there's no point in worrying of another threat.

[Five leveling points received!]

Her head perked up when she heard an automatic voice in her mind. She raised an eyebrow when the scroll rolled itself and vanished into thin air.

"It seems like I can level up my skills with the leveling points I received." She uttered under her breath and touched the right side of her head—

Ding!

[ List of Coco Coison's (Hughes) skill:

> Green Fingers [1] ( + )

— Strength [10] ( + )

— Stamina [10] ( + )

> Purification [1] ( + ) ]

Lala told her how to open her scroll of skills in this world and that is by touching the side of her head.

"Woah.. I can also level up my passive skills? Isn't that a cheat?" She murmured and raised her finger, she decided to put all the points on [Green Fingers].

She doesn't know what it does, but who cares? She remembered green fingers pertaining to the people who's good with farming so it must have to do with something related to farming, right?

"What are you doing, Coco?" Lala asked as she looked at the scroll. Though, in her point of view, it's just blank.

No one else could see Coco's scrolls except herself so even if Lala wants to see what's happening, she really can't. It's a matter of privacy according to Lulu.

"I'm putting points on my skill." Coco said and caressed the fairy's head with her other finger. She noticed a new button beside the skills, she pressed it out of curiosity and it showed the definition of the skill.

[ Skill: Green Fingers [6]

Green fingers allow the user to shorten the cultivating and growing process of anything they plant. It will increase the fresh and success rate of the plant no matter the weather and soil conditions.

If partnered with purifying skill, the effect of green fingers will go from 50% to 95% if the level is equal to one another. ]

"This is really a cheat, Lala. Increasing the success rate of the plant? Isn't that the dream of every farmer? And what else? The shortened time? Goodness, aren't I a lucky lady?" Coco chucked as she read the description of the skill.

"Oh, but my purification skill is much lower than green fingers.. Dang it, I should have distributed the points evenly." Coco swore under her breath and glared menacingly at the scroll in front of her.

"How do you earn points then?" Lala asked and smiled brightly at her human, "You can just earn points again!"

"I don't think I'll have another quest like this ang time soon, Lala." Coco sighed deeply and stared solemnly at the scroll, "But you're right, I can just earn points like this again."

"That's right! Don't be sad!" Lala agreed with so much enthusiasm that Coco couldn't stop herself from being happy as well.

"Alright, alright." Coco chuckled and turned back to the scroll, further down, she read the deacription of the skills.

The last bits of the [Green Fingers] skill description made her eyes wide when she finally got to the last bit.

[Once maxed, just the thought about the planting what the user wants will be enough for it grow whenever as long as it has a patch of soils.]

This skill is really a cheat!
