68 Beloved by Nature (1/2)
After training until the sun fell down the horizon, I decided to invite everyone on the training grounds for a big feast on the Royal Dining Room, including the Humans. There was delicious Sacred Turtle Meat and everyone had to try it! I also ate the meat and Spirit Orb that Celica and Truhan brought me while waiting for the main dish.

I shared the meat with my wives, as they all obtained new Skills, I wonder if the babies will get them too.
When the food was ready, the beautiful Arachne Maids brought all the delicious preparations, there were Sacred Turtle Soup, Meatballs, Burgers, Meatloaf, Deep Fried chunks, etc.
This Turtle meat was incredibly juice and tasteful, it had several different hints from other reptiles I've tasted, while also having a small fishy tone and even some sweetness on the juice. The Burgers were my favorite, which had delicious spicy sauce and Ice Giant Rabbit Cheese.

After reading ”Blessing” I almost spit out the food on my mouth.
”W-What?! A Blessing? Aah… Did anyone get it too?”
It seems that none of my wives got any blessing, not even Guubo. So, it was most probably the limit of my shared power. I've also noticed that they usually don't get summoning magic either.
”A-Anyways, what does this blessing even do?”
[Blessing of the Demi-Goddess of Nature Kyltia: A blessing given to those who are adored by nature, the pure children of the forest who Kyltia loves and protects]
[First Effect: ”Beloved by Nature”: Grants easy domination over certain areas like forest or jungles when the user stays for a prolonged amount of time]
[Second Effect: ”Forest Guardian”: Increases the growing rate of any type of vegetation on your domain]
[Third Effect: ”The Voice of the Trees”: Grants the user the power to easily detect any disturbances from outside forces inside your domain]
”They're all quite convenient and are more oriented towards utility and protection. These effects will surely come handy for growing crops or detecting the humans entering the forest”
I also decided to assimilate a chunk of the Turtle's meat that I saved alongside its shell. Instead of the usual pain, the assimilation was refreshing and even the hard shell was absorbed by my body with easy. Later on, I discovered that this was due to my [Absorption] Skill.

Redgaria also came to join us later on, he was rather surprised that I was able to summon a monster capable of killing the ”Protector of the Forest” and told me that everything I do is always ridiculous.
”Common sense doesn't really work with you, isn't it? Hahaha!”
”Sigh… Shut up… Anyways, I remember you saying that you were going to give me some books to learn magic, right? Where are they?”
Redgaria rubbed his chin pretending to be surprised.
”Oh! I didn't remember! I will bring them to you tomorrow morning. But I don't really think that you would be able to comprehend them at all. They are very advanced magic books with very complicated terms. You also need to understand the true meaning of each spell and their connection to our world and…”
Redgaria talked over how I would never comprehend these books for the rest of the dinner, after some time, I just ignored him and talked with Nesiphae and Rimuru.
Zehe was with Herbell and was asking him of any name for her children, it seems that Herbell was quite emotional, saying things like ”I'm already going to be grandfather”, etc.
Brontes and Gaby were talking about fighting techniques and how they could gain new insights to make their own combat systems from sparing with the demi-humans.
