Chapter 98 - Withe Maguey



With great care he took a small notebook from one of his bags where she began to take note of the small specimen "Very small, by your form I know you are an Agave (Scientific name of the Maguey), but that white color has not been seen let me make some Small tests do not worry I will not hurt you little friend.

Because you are white I can assume that you do not produce chlorophyll but that makes me wonder where you get your little food, symbiosis with a fungus or something else.

So many questions and so little time, don’t worry I will analyze you and discover the best way to deal with you, after the analysis I will place you in the best place for your optimal development "

Taneri very carefully recited some chants and a green energy ball appeared in his hands which began to surround the little white Maguey, this energy seems to please little Maguey because his small Pencas move in tune with the energy of Taneri.

After a few minutes of checking each part of the little maguey, she began writing down his notebook while he was talking

"Your name will be Agave Nivis (Snow Maguey), you are a little wonder of nature, your color is perfect to capture as much sunlight as you can in any cold environment so your photosynthesis process is quite different from As do your cousins.

You are perfect to grow in low or intermediate cold environments, it seems that you can resist up to 30 degrees below zero but you have little resistance to hot climates, it is enough that you are at a temperature greater than 20 degrees so that you begin to suffer damage.

Very small, I will acclimatize your pot so that you are not uncomfortable, I will also give you some nutrients so that you adapt to the improvised pot where you are "

Taneri looked in his pockets and began to take out small test tubes that contained different substances which he began to pour on the table in varied quantities when he finished.

She used his green magic which entered the land of the small white maguey creating a small layer of frost in the process, the maguey as if it were a living vertebrate being danced as if he were happy.

Everyone in the room was surprised by Taneri’s ability for plants, even Mayahuel thought of kidnapping her to help take care of her Magueyes but she was restrained because it is impolite to steal living beings and force them to work against her will.

Grandma Toci noticed Mayahuel’s eyes of greed and could only shake her head, Flavio on the other hand always liked to see how elves can enter a direct communication with any type of plants.

Hellena, on the other hand, preferred to lean on Flavio’s shoulder and silently look at Taneri’s magic, when Taneri put out and wiped the sweat off his forehead suddenly realized that he had entered completely ignoring everyone.

His pointed ears turned red from the shame he felt when he turned and looked at the four people in the room, only his embarrassment cleared up when he looked at Empress Hellena staring at her as if she were mad at her.

At that moment he swallowed and before he could apologize and clemency to the Emperor of the Empress, Flavio spoke: "Don’t worry Taneri, Hellena is just annoyed she will pass and let me introduce you to our guests."

Flavio introduced Mother Toci "She is the grandmother of the gods Toci, I have invited her to help us train Temazcaleros so that she does not go cold when the frost arrives and improves the index of births without complications among citizens"

Taneri quickly got up and cleaned his hands with his suit and greeted Grandma Toci "A pleasure to meet you Deity Toci, I never thought I’d be face to face with you"

Grandma Toci replied "It’s a pleasure Taneri, I have to admit I’m surprised to see that you have a lot of harmony with the plants that surround us, your species will be of great help to prevent our children from destroying their environment by abusing resources"

Taneri just blushed and thanked Grandma Toci then Flavio continued with his presentation pointed to the dark-skinned woman with blue hair wearing an Ayate decorated with Maguey flowers

"She is the goddess Mayahuel or the goddess of the maguey, she is the mother of the little white maguey that you just made Happily"

Taneri turned his face towards Mayahuel who whom I look with great happiness "You are the goddess of Maguey and pulque or what a great day to live"

Taneri quickly took a notebook from her bag and asked the goddess Mayahuel for the autograph. The goddess Mayahuel just looked at her and replied: "What is an autograph?"

Taneri quickly began to explain that the autograph is a creation of Flavio that he did many years ago when he was a child, before Emperor Augustus left Emerita Augusta he asked for an autograph, which consists of signing a sheet and writing a little greeting, thanks to this the autograph quickly expanded and became commonplace in Rome.

Mayahuel looked at Taneri with some surprise "You see you like history a lot"

Taneri with an exciting look told him "I love it after being years and years growing up in an enclosed space without knowing the world and once we can see everything with your own eyes it is fascinating.

My two tastes are history and plants, but I think I was a little goddess Mayahuel I hope you can forgive me when I get excited I lose control of my words "

Mayahuel shook his head and took Taneri’s hand from his notebook and using a drop of his blood drew a pictogram representing the Maguey on an empty sheet after this he returned the notebook to Taneri

When Taneri saw that and shouted "Awesome" because he could see that the autograph pictogram glowed with a crimson gold color, at that moment I noticed that the goddess’s face changed from happy to serious as they looked at the window.

Mayahuel got up from his seat along with Grandmother Toci and said goodbye to Flavio and Hellena but not before telling Taneri that please take care of the White Maguey they had to retire unexpectedly because Mother Tonantzin was calling them.

When they left everything went back to normal except for the assistant of Taneri who kept turning around asking where was Minister Taneri, if he does not appear he will be charged because he was with the last person who spoke ...
