Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

(Some minutes ago…)

Florie and Nieve gathered within a small room together. Florie’s big sister was reprimanding her little sister for being such an irresponsible fairy. Despite being part of the family of warriors and guardians, the little Florie had only been fooling around most of the time. And as if things couldn’t get any worse, she ended bringing a group of complete strangers all the way inside the fairy kingdom. Nieve felt completely disappointed in her little sister, who was said to have great magical power and a bright future, and couldn’t help but reprimand her for her doing.

“Florie! I’ve told you countless times to not go out by yourself, especially at NIGHT! Gosh! You’re really hopeless, girl!” Nieve reprimanded her sister as her aura of ice generated little snowflakes. The more angry she got, the more these snowflakes would be generated, freezing the room and making Florie tremble in the coldness of her sister’s magic.

“I-I already said I am sorry! And Planta and her friends are good people, they saved us from dying against the snakes!” Said Florie. “They’re super nice people, and Planta is a Spirit of Nature too, she got special powers that can control plants, she said she healed the faraway tribe of Squirrel-kin! Maybe she can be our hope…!” ．

“But her servants and pets are dangerous, and they tried to fight back! We cannot simply trust people we just meet like you do, Florie. You have to be more realistic! Also how can we even know she’s a Spirit? Can you see through the Truth of people’s Souls like the Players can?” Asked Nieve while pouting and crossing her arms while she raised her azure-colored eyebrow. Florie began fidgeting timidly as she waved her head.

“No…” She sighed.

“Then why are you so sure? Anybody can fake being a Spirit of Nature by just using Green Magic now or something?” Asked Nieve. “And what’s up with your hands? They’re black, did you got oil on them?”

“A-Ah! Yeah… Well, b-but it’s true! You have to ask her and she’ll show you she’s a Dryad for real!” Said Florie. She quickly covered her hands with a handkerchief to clean the black oil over them.

“Queen Titania has been very busy maintaining the health of those affected by this strange curse-disease, we cannot bother with another impersonator of a spirit. Do you remember what happened with the last one that came here saying he could heal us? He ended tricking us and ran away with money! Damn Dwarves, this is why we don’t trust the nasty people from the outside of the forest anymore!” Said Nieve.

“But you have to trust her this time! A-And the snakes are getting closer too, they followed me… I think it might be dangerous outside, what if they’re planning something?” Asked Florie. “You know about the three Monster Kings, right? The Oracle said that the Shadow Crow King and the Giant Mushroom King had revived as Miasmic Beasts but were suddenly defeated by a Spirit of Nature! I bet that was Planta!”

“That’s not something that was proven! The Oracle is a very old lady, sometimes she says strange things that don’t make sense even for the Queen Titania! Also there’s no way such a powerful Spirit that managed to defeat two revived Monster Kings that tormented our forest in the past is that self-proclaimed “Dryad”, especially because if she were that powerful then why did she even let herself get caught? Couldn’t she showcase her spiritual powers to let us know she is the real deal?” Asked Nieve. “Unless she’s somehow afraid of using her powers or something? But why though? If she’s so strong I am sure she would be able to control them to not damage others. Everything you’re saying simply doesn’t make sense to me, Florie…”

“Gosh! Nieve you’re such a stubborn big sis!” Florie cried, as she covered herself with a mantle for the coldness her sister emanated when she got overly angered or serious. “A-Also, I went outside of the Kingdom to look for herbs, I am one of the few with the Alchemy Skill so I can make medicine… I’ve been trying to find a new type of herb that could heal curses, but it is very hard…”

“Medicinal Herbs that heal curses? They’re indeed very rare, even more rare to find if you go out at night. You even put in danger the life of your friends, all of their parents are now angered with you, and such anger will later be directed to our family. As your big sister I’ll have to bear with the responsibility, you know?” Asked Nieve angrily.

“I-I know…” Sighed Florie. “B-But I want to help! And what about the snakes?!”

“We are preparing for the snakes! Our Guardian Golems are there for that reason, Florie! We have already fended off an invasion successfully. Although the Ravenous Snake Queen was the strongest of the three Monster Kings, she was defeated by the Ancient Hero Luminous, now that she revived she’s most likely weakened, like the other two! If they were defeated by a Nature Spirit and not a Hero, there’s no way the Snake Queen will be stronger than before either… She only has the power to lay a lot of eggs, that’s all!” Said Nieve while crossing her arms.

“Uuuggh… Big sis you’re so annoying… I hate you!” Florie roared, flying to the corner of the room.

“W-What? I am only worried about you! Don’t be such a child, Florie!” Nieve complained.

Knock, knock!

Suddenly, the door opened, as two fairies wearing armor made of bug monster exoskeleton flew inside the room, bringing some news.

“Commander Nieve, the interrogation has been approved by the Court, Queen Titania seems interested and she’ll oversee the entire event as well in the Faerie Court.”

“What? So soon? Is… Queen Titania serious about this?!” Nieve asked.

“Informants said that Queen Titania “Had a feeling” of something, and she decided to participate and hurry the interrogation…”

“Queen Titania really does odd things sometimes!” Nieve said, as she flew out of the room. “Florie! You better stay at home, don’t dare follow me, or I will ban you from using your Atelier for a month!”

“Uugh… You’re so mean!”
