Just as I was wondering how I could ever rise my stats somehow, something that could perhaps work similarly happened…
-----
[Agility]: [6] (+50)
-----
By summoning the little Dashy, my Agility gained a +50 Bonus! It made me feel a lot nimbler, although not as much as when I change stats through Status Manipulation. Perhaps these bonuses might seem big, but their total enhancement is not as huge as the tiny stats I can manipulate, which according to Alice contain a lot of power even if they're lower.
Nonetheless, with this fifty more Agility, the difference in speed was really obvious, and if I boosted my stats much more, I could attain brand new levels of strength.
"I do feel faster… So these Summons give me buffs too?" I asked in shock.
"Yep! As long as their seeds exists, you receive their buffs!" Alice celebrated.
"Wait, and if I make 30 of these guys… I'll get +1500 Agility?!" I asked.
"Yeah, in theory!" Alice said.
This was crazy, radishes might become my new favorite veggie… Though only Agility as the buff wasn't the best, I would also wish for more defense or strength. I bet other types of Harvest Familiars will be able to give more of these buffs.
"But wait, what are the limits?" I wondered.
"Well, the limit right now is 30. You can keep summoned 30 at the same time and within your pouch." Said Alice. "Also the buff works the same… However, every 30 minutes, you can make more seeds and simply store them inside your inventory. Whenever one of them dies, you can replace them. I recommend you to not keep them saved because they'll be very useful, their Skills in specific… Well, I bet you'll probably want to eat this radish after reading it."

[Nutritious Flavor]
Sacrifices the Dashing Radish to transform it into a [Nutritious Radish] which can be consumed or used as a cooking ingredient. Once consumed, it will give a temporary enhancement to Agility of +50 and enhances Reaction Speed and Casting Speed by up to +30% for 3 Hour. The Agility Buff can be stacked up to 4 times for a maximum of +200 Additional Agility.

"I guess I'll be eating radishes from now on…" I sighed. "I wonder if the Guardian Potato has the same effect…"
"Yeah it has, but this one boosts defenses and vitality." Alice said, checking on the potato's status, and showing it to me. Even if I haven't summoned it yet, it seemed possible to showcase me the new summons stats.

"This is awesome… It sucks I have a cooldown though…" I sighed.
"If you didn't had one you could just create them infinitely…" Alice sighed. "Well, in a couple of years you'll probably have as many as you wish."
"True, I guess I've gotta be patient." I nodded. "In the future I'll make some crazy good stews using these vegetables, and buff everybody's stats."
"That's the spirit of a true farmer!" Alice celebrated.
"Anyways, how can I make the Awakened Harvest Familiars?" I wondered. "It said that I could use more materials?"
"Yes, Awakened Harvest Familiars receive bonus stats, new skills, and enhancement to old skills as well. You'll need nine more seeds to make the one you have into an Awakened form, but don't worry, as long as it doesn't die it will stay on its awakened form." Said Alice.
"I see… Wait, I need ten seeds?! That's a bit too much, don't you think?" I sighed. "Also I need a hundred to make them reach the next rank…"
"Sylphy I think you're complaining a bit too much now, you could technically make 48 seeds in a single day…" Said Alice.
"Yeah, but I don't have time to just be doing that constantly." I sighed.
"I can do it for you if you want, I'll set it up automatically." Said Alice.
"Oh, that would be a huge help! Then… Should I show this little guy to my family?" I wondered. "Ah, I think they might go crazy again over it… How about you go back to the Seed Pouch, Dashy?"
"Gyuh, gyuh!" Dashy nodded, suddenly exploding into tiny particles of light and going back to his seed form, which was quickly stored into the Seed Pouch.
POOF!
The Seed Pouch then disappeared, and whenever I wanted to call it, I just had to think about it and it would emerge out of thin air once more, it was a really… fantastical power, even in this magic world.
"Sometimes I wonder how these Skills even work, even in this world filled with magic, they feel a bit out of place." I sighed in surprise.
"Well that's the essence of the system, to have world-defying powers based on video games, which the humans from Earth are so fond of…" Said Alice. "It could be said most Skills are god-like powers that can slowly grow stronger too."
"So Gods can do cray things like these easily, huh?" I sighed. "I'll have to get much stronger if I ever want to slap them in the face to leave this world in peace…"
"I'll be rooting for you, Sylphy!" Alice cheered. "Now, how about you absorb the last thing in the menu?"
Alice quickly gave to me a glowing red jewel with a small flame inside, it was the [Divine Essence of Blazing Flames].
"Right, I guess this should had been a priority..."
