1113 Finding Balance
Grey looked at where the shadow had disappeared from, a bit shocked.
“It has intelligence. Do you think we can ask the senior about this place?” He looked at the others.
“After passing this place, it might appear again.” Alice replied.
Grey nodded before looking ahead, and his expression changed slightly.
How were they going to take care of the plants?
Each plant looked alright.
“You should know more about plants. What’s wrong with them?” Grey turned to the bunny leader.
‘They lack some things. You can sense it with your spiritual senses, are you that lazy?’ The bunny leader transmitted its voice.

Grey walked closer and tried to sense it, but he didn’t feel anything strange and looked at the bunny leader with a frown.
‘You’re not even trying. Look at every particle of it, and you’ll see what’s wrong.’ The bunny leader said with a sigh, a bit disappointed that Grey was this daft.
Alice also heard this, and just when she was about to sense it, she took out her Seelie. These things were quite close to nature, so they should have a good chance of discerning what was wrong with the flowers sooner.
When the Seelie came out, it quickly burrowed into one of the plants. It came out and merged with Alice. Her eyes shone with a bright light.
Grey looked at her, he could tell that the Seelie must have found what was wrong.
He also started to study the flower carefully. Even though Grey knew he could just wait and listen to Alice, he felt there might be something to gain from this, so he didn’t mind and started studying it. One has to recall that he was a study freak, so he would forget about everything else when he started. The bunny leader didn’t know anything about Grey, so it only felt like he was talented but very lazy.
Void lay on the side. He didn’t bother even to try to do anything. He hated doing all these things. Grey would never leave him behind, so as long as Grey could figure out how to pass this stage, he would definitely take him along.
The bunny leader already knew how to pass the trial, so it lay next to Void. It was around the same size as Void at the moment.
Void and the bunny leader had their eyes closed as they took a nap, while Grey and Alice had their eyes closed as they studied the flowers.
Grey’s expression changed from time to time as he examined the flower. He was apparently starting to see some things he had missed the last time.
“So it’s like this….” He muttered before moving to the next flower.
The garden wasn’t big, around twenty or thirty square meters. There were flowers planted all over, but not too much as well.
Grey didn’t rush to study the others, after seeing what was wrong with the first flower, he tried to see if he could settle the issue.
This flower had some more dominant cells, and it affected the overall growth of the flower. Presently, if people looked at it, they would not see anything wrong with it, but as time passed, the flowers would develop some issues and die out very quickly.
These flowers were different from normal flowers since they were made entirely of energy, they had to be balanced, if not, they would explode from the unbalanced energy.
Grey realized that this flower had eight types of energy, and they all correlated with his eight elements.
He opened his eyes and looked at the flower once again.
“Alice.” He called out softly.
Alice turned to look at him, slowly opening her eyes.
“How many elements appeared in the flower you’re checking?” He asked straightforwardly.
“Three.” Alice replied.
She had two elements, adding the ice ability of the Seelie made it three.
Grey nodded before closing his eyes once again. He couldn’t be distracted. After confirming what he wanted, he focused his time on balancing the energy in the plant.
The more elements one has, the harder this task is.
He soon released some essence inside the flower. Streams of energy from all his elements entered the flower, and he started to balance the cells with the lesser energy of each element with the other elements.
His expression soon changed, and he opened his eyes and ran away.
Boom!
A loud explosion rang out, sending Grey, who was running away, flying.
“F*ck!” He cursed in annoyance.
He could not balance the energy in time, and it exploded on his face. If not for the fact that he was fast, the attack might have injured him.
This thing was not as easy as he thought it would be.
Balancing the energies required more than he thought.
Alice opened her eyes to stare at Grey’s sorry state, and her expression was also more serious after this. Since this happened, it meant that if she were careless, she would face the same fate as Grey.
Void opened his eyes, and seeing Grey, he closed his eyes again.
The bunny leader looked at Grey and smirked. It wanted to laugh at Grey. It could do this task with its eyes closed, yet Grey failed.
Grey couldn’t be bothered with others. His expression was not the best. Although not injured, he still felt annoyed that he was sent flying. He had to make sure that he was more careful during his next try, if not, he would suffer again.
He calmed his mind and started balancing the energy once again.
The energy distribution was different with each element, the light element had the lowest while the others had a higher ratio.
