'die from over feeding' 41

They were even hard to be seen by the monsters of the falls due to their small sizes 

But the basins Fairy carried had sea creatures indeed, still they weren't as big as the one they both ate

"Well you might not believe this but these are what you'll call babies"

"What.....?" 

If Asahel was shocked that the fish they ate last time was big then these babies were some thing else 

"You see I've been thinking alot so I thought to try it out....I dove deeper into the water on a specific day and was able to see places just like our cave and guess what each cave had its owner.... luckily some weren't around and I entered lo and behold I found their eggs...for acquatic life that are so big and gigantic their eggs are really small..... though I don't get it but I didn't want to miss such chances so I took as many as I could carry from one nest, returned to our cave kept them and came back again, in fact they aren't up to a month old and they have already hatched"

"I don't know when exactly they were laid but I felt with their sizes the eggs should be newly born"

Asahel was still shocked, the basin had different types of sea creatures inside shrimps, oysters, clams, crayfish, water snails, and many more too numerous to mention

"But if they're already grown up to this size won't they become bigger once they turn to adults I mean...the ponds within this cave aren't big enough to contain their parents sizes"

"No need to worry we'll just eat them before they get that big, anyway let's start already I'm sure they'll taste good"

Asahel could only sigh 'eat them before they get big....what a joke....they might as well die from over feeding'

As Fairy spoke up he already began to clean them, Asahel also began to work on one basin that had only fresh vegetables as for how it got here Fairy still told her

"You won't believe it but they're alot of edible vegetables in that waterfall.....I honestly thought all the plants here were gigantic and monsterous but little did I know that they were normal sizes hiding inside the waters"

"That's strange...I don't know much but I can tell that vegetables like this aren't supposed to grow underwater"

The vegetables Asahel was cleaning were commonly found and planted on a good soil on the ground and didn't need too much water least the good soil would wash away and the plant would die from erosion but yet these vegetables were surviving right inside a huge river that had a large waterfall

"This place is really strange"

"Well you can say that again"

Ever since Fairy determined to become useful he sort to venture within his reach and by so doing he gained or opened alot of skills, like the one he dove deep underwater 

he now realised he could breathe under water and talk as well and he could also use some sort of teleportation, he still didn't know how it worked but he tried it on the eggs he took back 

After swimming for long and discovering these eggs he thought to take them back but there was no way and he didn't know if he would make it out alive if he was caught so a certain thought came to him 'if only I had some sort of tool to transport these eggs'

It didn't take long when an idea popped on him and when he went out he requested Asahel should buy alot of basins which she did since she thought he was preparing it for when they would finally stay in the space after departing from this group and go there seperate ways 

Once these basins were bought Fairy marked all of them and took one back into the water and luckily again there was no one guarding it, 

It was as though these creatures gave birth and left their children to fend for themselves, but the truth was that the mothers couldn't stay with their children least they ate them and this included all the sea creature in the water within the space 

No mater how hard they tried they could not enter the cave again once they gave birth.

The space was weird indeed and had hidden things that should help the host but almost no one knew about it 

as for why the mothers couldn't enter was because these eggs were just too small as though a normal sized sea creature laid them and once they hatched they couldn't even compare to the size of a fin or leg from their mothers, and if care was not taken they would be crushed to death by their own mothers, at least that's the logical reasoning

But the real reason was that it was made that way so the host could feed on them 

and as for the vegetables they had some sort of protection formation attached to each and everyone as soon as they began to develop

These protection formations helps to store sunlight and reduce excess water....in fact you could say these plants were breathing underwater and still had some reserved energy to reproduce and as if that wasn't enough they were looking incredibly healthy and fresher than the ones on land this also shocked Asahel

Vegetables like these could be sold for alot of money looking at how fresh they were

the formation not only provide them with necessary sunlight and soil nutritions but also protect them from the sea creatures who could not even tell that those things existed 

In actual fact these vegetables were like poison to them and once they saw it they swimmed away, 

one must remember that these area was a canivories area, everything here could eat you and the gigantic canivories plants were no exceptions to being eaten 

But surprisingly the vegetables underwater were not some thing these sea creatures wanted to get close to talk more of to eat it 

When Fairy so them he was surprised, they looked like your normal vegetables but were greatly avoided by dangerous creatures, after staying around for some thing and using himself as bait he discovered that once these sea creatures got close about five hundred feet to these vegetables they would be feeling uneasy

And if they were too stubborn to turn back you would see them struggling as though they couldn't breathe

For humans you could say they needed air at that moment but for these creatures it was like there was no water there and the air was too much 

 with that Fairy knew that these place was safe and soon started harvesting these vegetables which were in decimal values

Each type of vegetable covered a large area and were more than a thousand and they were all looking fresh as if they weren't under water

probably because they had never been harvested before 

Asahel listened as Fairy told her about his adventures deep within the waters and was very curious 

"Since when did you start to be inquisitive, you've been with this space for a very long time and it's only now you knew these things?"

Fairy let out an awkward laugh and then continued adding ingredients such like the cooking scroll instructed
