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

"Make sure to behave on school, dear." Elayne said, waving her hand gently as Elena and Anna entered the school's building, Elisa joining them right after.

"Sure, bye~" Elena said, without anything else.

"Geez your mom's always worried about you, haven't you told her you're like… the beauty everyone admires?" Laughed Anna.

"I don't really like that title you've made up." Elena sighed. "I'm no beauty or anything, I just do what I can… I study hard, and I get good grades so mom can feel relieved, so she doesn't have to worry about another thing."

"O-Oh…" Anna felt slightly bad. "Okay, sorry… I talked a bit too much there. You're a good daughter actually."

"Certainly an excellent student, but not THAT good of a daughter, if I dare say." Laughed Elisa from behind, walking right in between the two girls. "Elena, I admire you as both a friend and a rival, but the way you treat your mother… Why are you so cold sometimes?"

"T-That's not something you should be asking out of nowhere." Elena gave her a deadly glare. "And I am not… cold. It's just… hard. It's hard to show emotions sometimes."

"But why?!" Elisa asked angrily.

"Hey golden goldilocks, stop annoying her so much." Anna said, giving her a gentle bonk in the head.

"Ouch! How dare you hit me?" Elisa said angrily. "If my guard could come inside school he would surely not forgive such thing!"

"Come on, we're friends, we can hit each other sometimes." Laughed Anna. "Come on, hit me back if you're so hurt by that."

"T-Then take this and that! You boorish woman!" Elisa said angrily, hitting Anna in the head with her small hands, they didn't even hurt even as she used all her strength.

"Hahaha, that tickles!" Anna laughed, mocking Elisa's lack of strength.

"You two never get tired of fighting?" Elena sighed, as the girls sat down in their chairs. "Oh? Monica's here." She noticed Monica timidly entering the classroom, she looked even worse than before.

Her face was completely pale, her eyes seemed like they had just cried a river, her hands were trembling, and her hair was a mess… The bullies that annoyed her were gone, but the rest of the class still gave her bad looks.

To them, a girl like that in such a prestigious high school simply didn't belong. Most of the classroom believed an orphaned girl like her that lived on her own and that looked like a homeless woman shouldn't be in the same classroom as theirs.

They were quite the little bitches, as Anna would say… But that was to be expected from a high school where only girls from mostly wealthy families attended.

"Monica! How are you?" Anna asked from afar.

"A-Ah…!" Monica suddenly felt scared, stepping back and almost tripping into the floor, if it wasn't for Elena go caught her arm and gently lifted her back.

"Are you okay? Did you sleep last night?" Elena wondered. "I can relate to those eyes you've got, sometimes I stay all night studying… or playing games."

"I-I… Well… S-Something… like that." Monica sighed, without wanting to make eye contact, as she sat down and looked gloomily.

"Geez, you look like a ghost went through you! What happened?" Anna asked.

"Are you okay?" Elisa wondered.

"You can tell us anything." Elena smiled.

"I-I would like… s-some personal space…" Monica sighed. "S-Sorry but I… Ugh… Cough…"

"Eh? Are you sick?" Wondered Anna. "M-Monica, your hand…"

"H-Huh?" Monica felt dizzy, as she realized she had coughed blood. "W-What…?"

"Are you sick?!" Elisa asked.

"N-No… I…." Monica muttered, but she couldn't keep her composure.

Her body was slowly beginning to die from the inside, incapable of being able to take all the energy that was being accumulated within.

The looks of disgust of everyone else in the classroom and their small, sly comments tormented her mind even more.

"So disgusting…"

"Is she sick or something?"

"How come she hasn't gone to the hospital for something like that?"

"Urgh, she got her disgusting blood all close to Elena!"

"That stupid kid…"

Monica couldn't take it anymore. The energy within her, the dizzy memories of whatever monstrosity she did through the weekend. The darkness swelling within her soul.

And the entity that had possessed her…

"Fufufu… Monica, I know you can't take it anymore…"

"S-Stop…!"

Monica cried, hitting her own head.

"Monica? What's wrong?" Asked Anna.

"A-Are you okay?" Elena asked.

"Hey!" Elisa said.

"You know you can't keep holding back… Your true power, your true thoughts, your true intentions…" The voice whispered.

"S-Shut up! I don't have those intentions!" Cried Monica, a strange, phantasmal energy started surging from within her body.

"Is she going insane?!"

"What's wrong with her?"

"Hey! Are you alright?!"

The other students started getting worried…

"You've been holding back really well so far, Monica… But this'll end now." Giggled the voice once more. "With the power of my Lord Thanatos, I'll help you fulfill your darkest desires… I'll take them all down for you!"

"N-NO…! STOOOOP!!!"

FLAAAAASH!

A shockwave of pure darkness exuded from Monica's entire body, shaking the entire school! The people screamed in fear as they saw the entire building trembling.

Elena was protected by her own shadow, which suddenly took a large shape, wrapping her and her friends with it right before receiving the full impact!

"Uurgh… W-What was that?!" Anna cried.

"M-Monica?!" Elisa cried.

"T-This is…!" Elena muttered, her eyes shocked.

Monica was floating in midair, her entire body exuding a gigantic quantity of pure Mana. The darkness spreading around her body, and then the rest of the entire school. The students and professors panicked.

Crack… crack…!

"MONICA!!!" Elena cried, trying to stand back up and running towards her.

However, Monica glanced at her with a face filled with fear, tears flowing from her eyes, as she seemed completely scared… of herself.

"R-Run… run away…"

CRAAAASSSH!!!

Space itself shattered into pieces, as a huge black hole opened behind her, sucking her in, and everybody else in the classroom inside a completely different space!

TRUUUUUUUMMMM…!
