Reincarnated As A Plant Life



"H-Huh?" Lucius groaned as light burst into his eyes. It only took him a matter of seconds to recall what had happened. How he had fainted right when he was about to attack the necromancer.

He tried his best to lift his body from the fluffy cage he seemed to be trapped in, but found that his body was still in a lot of pain.

~This isn't the temple,~ he noted, noticing that the walls here had a raw earthy texture, whereas the necromancer's temple seemed a lot more polished.

~Solar pulse,~ he chanted after calling out his crux. The spell showed that there were at least a dozen creatures just outside the area he was in. For some reason, his earth sense wasn't picking anything up, which only put him on edge as it meant that something was interfering with his senses.

~I've been gone too long, I need to find them,~ he thought, before casting solar cleanse on himself. Much of his pain was alleviated with this, but there was still a great amount left. It seemed that solar cleanse couldn't penetrate deep enough into his body to completely heal him.

~I'll get Hannibal to have me checked out,~ he thought picked himself up.

He found that his apparent 'cage' had actually been a bed of some sort, filled with a bouncy white substance. No, now that he inspected it a little more, it was actually more akin to a bath than a bed.

"Interesting," he whispered, before having his tail ingest some of the substance. Judging from how there were no restraints on him, he could tell that at the very least the people who had brought him here thought of him as a guest.

~Did someone already defeat the necromancer?~ he wondered as his system processed the substance he had ingested.

~A new catalyst?~ he thought to himself before bringing up his status screen.

~So the people who brought me here really aren't enemies...~ Lucius inferred, though he wouldn't go as far as calling them allies. For that reason, he kept his crux at the ready. Even if they were trying to heal him, it didn't mean that they were friendlies.

After reminding himself of all the spells he had in his arsenal, and preparing a sort of plan of attack based on the information he got from several solar pulses, he slowly made his way to the wooden structure at the entrance of the room.

Whatever creatures had captured him were clearly higher-tiered than he was, based on their innovations.

The moment he pushed the wooden structure aside, he was met with a familiar-looking creature. It was one of the chameleon warriors that he had encountered before the siege on the necromancer's temple had begun.

However, without so much as a second thought, he prepared a low-powered solar beam.

He couldn't sense much sunlight in the air, meaning that if he was careless with his reserves he would be left to the devices of his fists. And there was no telling whether these creatures had special abilities or not.

"H-He's awake-" a guard was about to shout, before Lucius covered its mouth with his tail, lifting it up into the air.

"Nobody move, nobody say a word," Lucius said in a foreign tongue. No doubt it was the work of his encyclopedia translating everything.

"Where am I?" he asked, making sure not to squeeze the guard too tightly.

"Should we call the king?" one of the other guards whispered to their colleague, unaware of Lucius's hyper senses.

"I said nobody talk, or do you not value the life of your comrade?" he asked, before squeezing the creature ever so tightly.

If everything did go to shit, he planned on releasing a cloud of poison in this hallway, before blasting a hole through the walls.

He doubted that they had built this place strong enough to withstand a high-powered solar beam.

"You are currently in Chamen, the Chame's territory. We apologize for bringing you here without permission, but my lord you have to understand that circumstances didn't allow us much of a choice," one of the creatures started explaining.

This one was dressed differently from the others. Where all the other guards seemed to be dressed with combat comfortability in mind, this one was dressed more for appearance's sake.

It was wearing a beautiful green leather cloak, with gems lined all along the neckline.

~My lord? Some sort of diplomat?~ Lucius thought to himself, before inspecting the creature.

"Where are my children? The other creatures that look like me, did they make it out?" he asked.

"One of your... children is currently in Zeldrev, the Zeldrave king's territory. The creature requires intensive healing, and we are unable to provide that here," the Chames diplomat explained.

~So they divided us? A hostage situation?~ Lucius thought to himself before dropping the guard that he had wrapped around his tail.

So long as he didn't have Alpha in view, he decided it would be best not to offend them too much.

"How many more hostages have you taken?" Lucius asked, careful not to let any of the guards move out of his field of vision

"Hostage? F-forgive me, perhaps that's the way we've made it seem. Everyone drop your weapons," the diplomat said, which earned him a few nasty looks from his comrades.

"My name is Shaviki, one of the king's councilors. And you, Havon, are a pristine guest here," the creature said before bowing.

"Havon? Pristine guest?" Lucius whispered to himself in confusion, as all the other guards bowed reluctantly as well.
