Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

It seemed things were escalating quickly into something completely out of my wildest dreams. I was being offered an exclusive contract with the most popular source of news of BNLO, the very channel with over 70 million subscribers?!

It was such a well-known agency that it completely covered all news and even tournaments between servers and the like. If I were to work with them, wouldn’t I get rich really quickly?

Me… a celebrity?!

For someone born in a humble farm, I never thought I could become a rising star surrounded by glamour.

But imagining myself walking across a red carpet while wearing a fancy dress, glamorous sunglasses, and surrounded by bodyguards… kind of awakened the hidden egocentric little butterfly inside of me.

Me… someone famous.

Hahaha…

…

…No!

I can’t do this yet! I was going to make a guild!

“Not only would you be known by the entire American Server, but the rest of the Servers in South American, Europe, Asia, Australia and Oceania will know of your great feats!” The man said. “Ah, my bad! My name is James Thompson, and this is my IRL name. Please, have our business card!”

The man quickly handled me a business card, which was an in-game item too, I stored it inside my inventory after taking a little glance at it.

“Our exclusive contracts include a negotiable 70% of revenue for the celebrity in question, alongside ads, original content such as novels and webtoons made exclusively surrounding the character, and even all type of merchandise!” The man said. “Planta, we know of how incredible you are, so we are offering all of this to you upfront!”

“A-Ah… I… W-Well… Uuuuhhh…” I began swallowing saliva in nervousness.

This was way too good of an offer!

But I was letting my little greedy side blind my judgement.

“Oi, stop annoying her.”

My daughter suddenly stepped in front, as my friends were already holding the enormous crowd back. She quickly pointed her katana back at James, her sharp eyes glowing redder.

“Hoh, is this your friend, Planta?” James asked, his smile growing… creepier.

“Fuck off.” Elena said.

“I can’t, unless Planta herself tell us to go away.” James laughed, readjusting his sunglasses. “Young girl, don’t get involved in things that are not your problem.”

“She’s my future guild master so I’ve gotta protect her, even if she’s a klutz sometimes.” Sighed my daughter.

Aww, she’s gonna protect me?

“AHEM!”

I quickly interrupted things before the two were to begin fighting… James was a Level 207 player, so he could go 1v1 against Elena no problem.

“Anyways, James, I appreciate your offer! I will think it for now, but I am really busy. As you heard her, I am going to make a guild.” I said.

James immediately changed back to his gentle demeanor.

“But of course Planta, have fun.” He said. “We will be expecting your prompt call!”

The man quickly walked away with his agents, as I felt relieved.

“Don’t trust them Planta, they’re leeches that only want to leech off your success and money. Go solo and there’ll be nobody controlling you.” My daughter said with a rather edgy smile.

“I… Eeh, well, I will investigate them if they’re trustworthy first and all of that. Maybe making a non-exclusive contract would be nice though…” I said. “I mean, its just the videos and I get extra money, think more maturely dear.”

“Hmph…” She wasn’t really listening.

“Anyways! Let’s go inside!” Rosemary quickly led us inside, quickly closing the door of the Guild Confederation as we were greeted by a rather calm hall. There were a few players here and there, mostly being attended by NPC working in the agency.

“Alright, we’re finally here…” Mark sighed in relief.

“That was hell…” Rita sighed. “But bestie you’re such a celebrity!”

“Y-Yeah, I don’t know if I am really enjoying it though.” I sighed.

“Anyways, it was interesting to see but let’s get this done with. I don’t want to spend more time in this Player-infested place.” Sighed Titania.

“Right…”

We walked near a receptionist, who greeted us rather cheerfully.

“Welcome to the Guild Confederation! Do you wish to create a Guild or create a Guild Alliance? This also works as a Bank, so it is possible to deposit your Gold in here! Players seem to lose Gold when they lose a PVP battle, so it is quite worth it!” She said happily. She was a cute pink-haired girl.

“I would like to make a Guild! Are there any restrictions or special requirements?” I asked.

“Yes! The requirements are that the guild master must first pay a fee of one million gold, be at least on their third Rank Up, and sign some documents here.” She said with a smile, a system window showed up in front of me, showing me the “terms and services” of making a guild, which were many.

I read it carefully, but it seemed to be mostly common-sense stuff, such as the confederation not taking responsibility if the guild loses everything after a guild war and stuff.

Ultimately, things got done really quickly, I brought out a big bag with a million gold and then paid and signed everything else, the guild was finally made.

And in honor of our home, we called it “The Forest of Beginnings”!

Yeah it was rather unoriginal, but it sounded good.

After that, we registered all my friends, including the NPC.
