Chloe Springsprout is a 19-year-old student and magician from New Salem. She is a quiet and unassuming presence at school, and her friendships can be described as deep and narrow. She is the type of person who is easily influenced by those around her, so she has no idea what she will specialize in and is in the process of trying all sorts of things.
History
Though Chloe possesses magical talent, she dislikes competition, so since childhood she’s been the type to keep to herself and avoid standing out. Even in university, this hasn’t changed. She’s mainly overshadowed by her best friend Rani and junior Ainsley, and since she herself doesn’t particularly like being the center of attention, she occasionally tries to break out of this situation by attempting to change temporarily. However, she can’t handle the mental strain and ultimately fails most of the time.
Furthermore, she has repeatedly failed to take action when forced to make crucial decisions. This pattern has deeply influenced her life up to now.
Guiding the Cherry Blossom Fairy
Chloe went to see the cherry blossoms in the Garden of Culture, where she was possessed by a panicked Nadeshiko, and as a side effect she transformed and lost control of her body.
Mary and Ainsley helped her undo her transformation. Then she learned that the cherry tree—Nadeshiko’s dwelling—had been imported for research purposes and altered by New Salem’s mana.
Despite trying to become friends, mutual apprehension between Chloe and Nadeshiko prevented them from deepening their bond. Mary then granted her an opportunity to grow closer in a dream, and she succeeded in strengthening their friendship.
From there, she worked with her juniors and Rani to solve the problems she and Nadeshiko faced. Ultimately, she decided to go to Japan with Rani to find a home for Nadeshiko’s companions, who ended up working at Alba’s restaurant.
Personality and traits
She has a calm personality and isn’t the type to force herself on others. She fails to speak up clearly so she ends up missing out on opportunities.
Chloe is not confident in herself. At best she doesn’t rock the boat, and at worst she is indecisive, having never been able to get her opinion across in a large number of people.
However, she at least has a conscience and a sense of justice that allows her to stop people who have done wrong.
Chloe loves to read, and if she has free time after school, she locks herself in the library and binge reads books, especially books about plants. While she often reads picture books, it doesn’t mean she doesn’t read books in other genres at all.
Her favorite drink is herbal tea, especially ones with a refreshing taste like mint.
When she observed a Japanese cherry tree being brought to New Salem, it fascinated her. Even becoming possessed by Nadeshiko by accident wouldn’t stop her from seeing it again。
Since then, she became more deeply involved in her hobby and expanded its scope. Trying her hand at gardening, she eventually began to make potions from the flowers and herbs she grew.
Chloe can only make beginner potions, but because she has talent, she is slowly but surely improving. Sometimes she sells her potions, and although she has a few customers, she is making a name for herself, so this a successful hobby for her.
Magical abilities and skills
Not a good fighter, Chloe excels in flower magic, which is more suited for supporting others. She is not good at basic magic, and although she reached passing grades in school, her practical skills leave much to be desired. However, she has more mana than than average and can support others for a long time.
- Flower Magic: This is magic that she is very good at. While she can attack by whirling petals around, it’s not very powerful, and if anything mainly improves her allies’ will to fight. In addition, pollen can also be used to slow down movement and make people sneeze, which can hinder them. Chloe can create a space to strengthen allies by causing a large flower to bloom, and heal them by forming a flower bed, which can last until she stops supplying mana.
- Flying: Her broom speed is a bit slow. However, she has no problems maneuvering the broom itself.
Possessions
- Sakura Branch: Affected by magic, it shows no signs of withering. Nadeshiko lives inside of it, and in times of need she possesses Chloe and transforms.
