Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest-Novel

-----

Titania couldn't help but smile at Acorn, he had really gotten ahead of her.

"Excellently done." She said, quickly giving the bottles she had to us anyways.

"Aside from this, you'll need Aroma Perfumes, these perfumes create wards over your bodies that lower damage from Poison and Venom as well as Miasma." She said, quickly bringing other bottles as well, this time Acorn didn't made these.

"Oh? I didn't knew such a thing existed…" He said.

"These are not potions; you need to apply them over your body instead." She said. "They have a rough duration of thirty minutes, so you'll need to be quick. I as only able to make a few, so make sure to not waste them." The Queen said, giving them to me.

"Alright! Thanks a lot, Titania." I said.

"That's not all!" She said, quickly bringing yet another thing. "There's more. I have also prepared these…"

She suddenly showed a set of five knives of around 30 centimeters long, which had beautiful pink jewels in the handles, and had many inscriptions over them.

"These are special Sealing Daggers, especially made to seal powerful Miasmic Essence. You'll need to use these to seal the Snake Queen's Miasma, which will be most likely within her own body. You'll need to carefully find that place… The level of her power is due to this. Strong enough monsters can develop Miasmic Cores of crystalized Miasma, often showing as a third eye, or a new limb, or even a second head. Pierce their core with these five daggers and you will be able to seal their power to a grand extent, weakening them and making them easier to defeat." The Queen seemed decided to not let the Snake Queen live.

"I see, so we can use this to have an easier win." Said Achlys while rubbing her chin. "We'll take them then!"

"Yeah, thanks for all your guidance." Said Titan.

"It is nothing, I am doing my duty… The Snake Queen was… a friend of mine in the past. After the Miasma took over her, she changed and stopped being herself. The Hero came and then slain her for good. I thought such a page of my life was already long in the past, but she came back at the end… I want to put an end to her for real, if possible." She sighed. "Thanks for your help."

"It is nothing, we'll do everything we can to help!" I said. "I am sure it must be painful… But it must be done. I doubt I can purify someone that has already died and revived with miasma in her… She might be long gone."

"Indeed, she is." The Great Spirit of Harvest said. "I can't really do much about her to help her, sorry."

"It is fine, you're already helping me a lot, Great Spirit." I said.

"Hm! I've reloaded my power after the day of rest you had, so I'm ready to help you out! Though, I wish I could tell you more about what's exactly going on, but much like Titania, I am restricted." She sighed.

"Huh? What?" I wondered.

"…Never mind dear." She said.

"I wonder if Titania can see you…" I said.

"Of course I can. That's the Great Spirit, isn't it?" Titania spoke. Having regained her powers, she quickly realized a big floating carrot was at my side.

"She can see you?!" I asked in shock.

Everybody suddenly were also able to see the Great Spirit with their own eyes, as Titania unleashed a sparkle of light over her body. Her big, carrot-shaped body became visible for everybody to see.

"W-What is that giant floating carrot?!" Asked Achlys.

"Oh, it's a spirit?" Wondered Titan.

"Big carrot…" Acorn said.

"T-This is… Well, this is the Great Spirit of Harvest." I said. "She showed up out of nowhere… The other day. I think I had fulfilled some sort of condition for her to emerge."

"A-Amazing…" Titan looked at the floating carrot. "Though, it looks very normal to me. Also since when has there been quests like these?"

"I heard that quests are always automatically generated, so she just lucked out as usual." Achlys said.

"Well I guess there's no point in keep hiding myself… I've chosen your friend, Planta, as my vessel." Said the Great Spirit. "She shares the same dream as me of filling the world with nature and life once more. My ultimate enemy is the Demon King of Miasma anyways, so I'll gladly help you defeat his goons and also purify the swamp, I think I might be able to do it if I strengthen myself a little bit more."

"It is impressive that you've received the help of an Ancient Great Spirit, Planta. I believe this is probably because of your inner talent and amazing combination of powers." Said Titania. "Though, I never expected one to even choose a Player…"

"Hey, I wasn't aware she was one either! But well, it is not bad at all." Said the Great Spirit.

"Seeing the Great Spirit of Harvest alive is a good thing, it might mean that more Great Spirits could awaken in the future. They might be seeking more Vessels, so other people or Players could become chosen ones in the future… Planta has been chosen by one, so her fate might already be connected to these people." Said the Queen of Fairies. "But for now, it would be rude to continue bothering you, it is still early, so you should move towards your next destination."

"Other people that are Vessels…" I said, thinking about the possibilities. I wish some of my friends could become Vessels as well, but that's all up to luck I suppose. "Oh well, we should really get going now, thanks a lot for everything, Titania. We'll make sure to come back alive!"

"I will be waiting for you." Said Titania.

And like that, with Nieve, Acorn, Titan, and Achlys, we embarked in our journey towards the swamps, seeking to defeat the Snake Queen.
