Her stamina would still be low though.
Just cause her stamina/mp gauge is full doesn't mean it's big.
Likewise, for all we know, magic draws from a separate source of energy unrelated to stamina. As in, even abused malnourished children could have enough magic power in them to level an entire country.
That's like saying because you sit around all the time you should be ready to run.
She had poor nutrition and likely didn't sleep well. If we give it numbers, her stamina gauge would have been 10 max while a normal child would be at 25/30. Just because her bar is full (10) doesn't mean her frail body can keep up.
Thats what I meant when I said
...also "Medical/physical knowledge" such as how much rest/food an abused child needs to have before regaining the necessary 'health' (mental or otherwise) needed for strenous(?) activities. I sincerely doubt a magic fantasy community have the sufficient knowledge on how to deal with abused children.
Note that I am
NOT defending their actions as 'right thing to do'. I am merely replying to this
This girl was clearly abused why would anyone think she had the stamina to go using magic right off the bat.
In short, it is my way of saying they are '
understandably dumb'. That they have legit reasons to make such mistakes and people who grow in their living environment is quite likely to make the same mistakes. This is in contrast to some other fictional characters that think "It is an honor for this whelp if she is raped by this great me" or some other BS. I think you can probably find these kind of idiocy in the sister and mother in later chapters.
Yes, they don't know anything about her but that's even more reason to go slow. For all they know every time she makes seeds, it drains her life force or takes years off her life. They don't know. (I don't think it's anywhere that drastic)
When you don't know, you don't go full throttle. This is a supposed to be the premier institute. The next step should have been to check the seeds against normal seeds and grow them in the same condition or something. They have no idea what the seeds can even do. Are they bigger? More productive? The same?
They didn't need to tire her out on the first day is what I'm saying.
Applying the lack of medical knowledge and the fact that they are a research institute, it can be deduced that they do this "tire the mage out" thing fairly often as a gauging process and that this is the first time this thing happened (either because of malnutrition/abuse or because of the unique magic. The lack of general knowledge regarding abuse meant that they would not have thought of preparing those cautionary steps. )
As for checking the seeds, it would be better to have more seeds on hand before testing them out since the accuracy of seed experiment rely on a sample size that is preferably at least 2 digits.
(P.S. Thats it for me today. I was just called to the back to chop onions and now I can barely read xDD)
