I take a bite of the apple in my hand, and I can feel my body start to heal and my stamina restored. This is not an ordinary apple. This apple is called Misty Apple. Misty Apple has the same shape as an apple but is light blue instead of its usual green and red. Not only that, but Misty Apple also releases a little bit of mist from its core that dances around it.

This is the fruit that replaces Silver Radish. Not only does it restore an incredible amount of stamina (One bite of this apple can restore all of my stamina even after I use all my stamina), but it also heals my body.

It has been a month since I leveled up my farm rank, and I've grown quite a lot. With the help of daily and weekly quests, I can buy many seeds and increase my farm's size. Not only my farm, but my stats also grew quite a lot.

I have reached the bottleneck in my [Body] stats. It looks like C is the cap for the boost from the plant. I can either work hard to break the bottleneck or level up my farm rank. It is easier to level up my rank than try to brute force my way through the next rank of stats.

The same happens to my Fighting Style. It has been stuck in E+ since a week ago. After asking the system, I know that I have reached the maximum amount of knowledge of this fighting style. I need to buy the next fighting style to increase the cap.

The same happens to my Farming Skill as well. It is stuck in D rank since I already planted all the seeds from the [Shop]. I need to level up my farm rank to increase it.

I need to increase my farm level as fast as possible because my Skill and stats will reach the cap in a couple of months if I continue to grow like this.

I shake my head and get up from the ground. I look at my Farming Points and nod my head. I have a couple of options for spending these farming points. The first option is to summon someone or something using the summoning system. I need a worker to ensure my plant is healthy and cared for.

And also, I need to summon a guard for Tami. I can use the specific summon to summon one for each category or maybe two guard summons. One to accompany Tami and the other to guard the farm.

You know what? I will summon two guards instead of one worker and one guard. I still can manage to work alone on the farm.

I open up the summoning system and go to the guard-type summon. I press it once, and a bright light appears in front of me. My smile gets bigger when I see five stars appear above the ball of light.

I blink for a few seconds when I see the creature in front of me.

"Turtwig! Turt! Wig!"

"A pokemon?"

I kneel next to the grass-type pokemon and pat its head. Hey, system. What is this? A pokemon?

|Yes. It is a pokemon.|

Why? How?

|Summoning system is not an ordinary system, you know? Tamika already told you that she is summoned by the creator, right? She once died, and the creator offers her a second chance if she accepts it.|

I see. Is it the same as Turtwig over here?

|Nope! Turtwig over here was just born. When you press that button, her egg cracks, and she is born into the world.|

Ah. I see.

I look at the cute creature rubbing her head on my legs and smile a little.

What kind of food can I give her?

|Fertilizer.|

Wait. Seriously?

|Yes. As you already notice, the fertilizer in the [Shop] is special. It will be the greatest food for any grass-type pokemon. You can feed her three times a day and bury her inside a pile of fertilizer once a day. I recommend doing it when the sun is up.|

Can I ask why?

|To make her back strong and healthy. You also need to train her. Take her running around the farm and hunting the bear to make her grow.|

Got it. Thank you.

|No problem|

I smile at Turtwig and carry her in my arms. I look at her for a few seconds and say.

"You need a name."

"Turtwig?"

"Yes. A name."

I think for a few seconds before saying.

"You will be Midori."

"Wig?"

"That's right. You are Midori."

"Turtwig!"

I laugh a little when she starts rubbing her head on me. I put her down, took out one bag of fertilizer from my inventory, and poured a quarter of it in front of her.

"Come on, eat it."

"Turtwig! Wig!"

She quickly dives her head into the fertilizer and happily eats it. It is rather weird seeing creatures eating what looks like dirt. Oh well.

While she is eating her food, I focus on her, and I can see her stats.

[Name: Midori]

[Skill]

{Overgrow: EX}

{Shell Armor: F}

{Photosynthesis: F}

{Growth: EX}

Hey, system. Can you explain her Skill to me? Also, how is she a five-star? Her stats are weaker than mine. How can she guard the farm?

|Sure. I will answer your second question first because it is shorter. The reason why she is five stars out of seven is that she can grow. Just like any pokemon, she can grow and evolve. A fully evolved pokemon is a powerhouse on its own.|

That is true.

|Now, let's get to her Skill. Overgrow is the unique Skill that lets her grow beyond her cap level. You know that pokemon in the pokemon game have a max cap in their stats, right?|

Yes.

|Well, Turtwig can pass that. It will be hard, but she can become even more powerful with time and effort than her maximum stats.|

I see. Continue.

|Right. Shell Armor is a passive skill she has. The higher it is, the more durable she is. This is another reason why she is a five-star summonsed creature. She has a lot of growth-type skills like the previous one. The next one is another growth-type skill. Photosynthesis is an active skill that lets Midori absorb the sunlight to heal herself. The more sunlight she absorbs, the faster her body heals. Not only that, but this Skill also lets her grow faster. That's why I ask you to bury her inside a pile of fertilizer when the sun is up.|

Are all of her skills a growth-type of skills? If she is a five-star summons, what about a semi-legendary pokemon? What about legendary pokemon?

|Six and seven-star summon. Anyway, the Skill all guard-type summons have, Growth. This Skill lets them grow limitlessly.|

The same as Overgrow?

|Yes and no. Overgrow allows Midori to overcome her limit, but even then, she will have something called a hard limit. It is a race kind of limit, you see? Just like humans cannot surpass divine beings in physical strength, no matter how much they try, they cannot do it. They have human limitations. You are a special case. You are human, but more. You can say that you are a High Human, a human without limit.|

I see.

|Anyway, that is all. Anything else?|

Nope. Nothing at the moment.

I look at Midori and pat her head while opening the summoning system. Just like before, a ball of light appears in front of me. However, this time I can see the two-star above the light. After a few seconds, I could see a man standing in front of me.

"So you are my master, huh? The name is Vex, it is nice to meet you."

"It is nice to meet you as well, Vex. My name is Yuuji. Please call me by my name and not master."

Vex smiles at me and says.

"Alright, Yuuji. Anyway, what should I do? Who do you want to kill?"

"Woah, back up for a second there. I don't want anyone to die. I want you to protect someone for me."

"Oh? Escort mission, then? Easy enough. So, who is it?"

"She should be back in three days. For now you can explore the farm, train, or just sleep."

I want to say more, but my phone starts to ring. I take my phone and quickly take it.

"Tamika, What's up? Is something happen?"

"Master, someone want to meet you in the farm."

"Oh?"
