Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

After letting know Blackie of my new Stealth Ability, we used our connection as master and familiar to identify each other- well, more for him to be able to tell where I am, even while being completely invisible, soundless, and odorless.

More than anything, this coat is amazing! It’s the ultimate Stealth Power. However, the stealth function will be turned off whenever I attack, and it has a cooldown of 30 minutes, so I have to be careful not to deactivate it ahead of time…

Like I planned, I spent the next thirty or so minutes conjuring Charms all around the school’s perimeter, which will repel monsters and hollows, I even set up a few Exorcizing charms because I was feeling worried about ghosts.

And then, I sneaked inside the school and started running around its corridors while the students were still in classes… Ah, this felt a bit weird but there’s no helping it.

“Hmm, seems like there’s nothing out of the ordinary.” The Great Spirit sighed.

No matter how much we looked around as I set up charms and protection spells, we couldn’t find the suspicious presence anywhere else. It either disappeared, was never there or… it hid somewhere.

“If you guys see anything out of the ordinary, quickly send me a telepathic message, alright?” I asked the three skeletons inside of my daughter’s shadow.

“Okay!”

“There’s nothing to report, boss!”

“Hey, isn’t it a bit weird that you’re sneaking inside a young girl’s school though?”

I ignored the third message as I made my way outside the school.

“Phew, well, that was that!” I sighed in relief. “For now, let’s go to the gym and then to BNLO.”

“Alright… You better work out those gluteus!” Said the Great Spirit.

“H-Hey, don’t say that out loud, geez…” I felt slightly embarrassed, even though nobody could hear us talking.

…

“What in the world…?”

“I-Is she for real?”

“She doesn’t even look like someone that built…”

“Wait, is she really lifting five hundred kilograms?!”

As I was working out, I decided to do some heavy lifting to see how far my physical strength had developed, so I started trying out more and more weight, until I reached five hundred kilograms and it still felt like not enough.

“Phew…”

CLANK!

I rested the enormous weights as I looked back at everyone, I was rather sweaty, and I felt really embarrassed with everyone staring at me…

“Ahahah… That was tiring~” I sighed.

Suddenly, several young men, the oldest only being around their early twenties approached me…

“Hey, never seen you around, you were amazing!”

“What’s your name? Someone as strong as you should already be known around here…”

“D-Do you have a boyfriend?”

“E-Eh?!” I felt slightly overwhelmed as all these handsome young men approached and flocked around me. “I am pretty busy right now so I can’t talk~ Gotta put more weight.”

I quickly put six hundred, but then thought that might not be enough, so I added seven hundred kilograms. That must at least give me a bit more of a challenge, right?

“Let’s try it again… One, two, three!”

It went high in an instant, in fact, I didn’t even felt any resistance, and my muscles began to get rather warm, but I think I could still lift a bit more…

“One two, one two, one two!”

I decided to ignore everybody staring as I continued exercising, eventually, even the instructors of the gym were looking at me in shock.

“She’s… amazing.”

“Wow, that’s Elayne? I do remember her.”

“She’s been in here for less than a month and she’s gotten so good?!”

“This is what I call pure talent, this woman’s physique is literally Hercules incarnate!”

As they analyzed my strength, some people suddenly started to wonder if I was an “Awakened”. ．𝘦𝘵

“Oh! Maybe you’re an Awakened?! I’ve heard they awaken physical strength too, but I’ve never seen anybody as strong as you yet…” An instructor asked.

“E-Eh? Oh no, I haven’t awakened anything.” I said. “I just love to work out!” I lied.

“S-Such amazing determination…”

“I can’t believe it… I’ve been a fool!”

“Alright boys, we’re exercising with this lady!”

“Alright!”

Suddenly, several burly men and a few girls got around me and started exercising at my side, while chatting about lifting, exercises of various types, and more. I still felt rather embarrassed but… somehow, everyone was just being genuinely nice.

I-Is this what it means to make some gym bros and gym sis?

…

Once I was done with my gym activities, I took a bath in the gym’s bathroom, where some of the girls working out with me noticed my slightly built body.

“Wow, I can’t believe you’re so strong without looking too bulky! I envy those curves!”

“Your shoulders are so small! Yet whenever I touch them, they’re as tough as a rock!”

“Elayne can we get your number? We can meet and do some activities together!”

“E-Eh? Sure!” I said with a smile.

I never thought I would make any friend in the gym to be honest, but it was surprisingly amazing, and it made me happier.

And once I walked out of the gym… The young boys interested in me quickly showed up again, ugh.

“Hey, your name’s Elayne right?”

“How about we go somewhere else? Wanna go for a drink?”

“If you’re free, of course.”

“Err… Well, actually I am super busy right now guys, thanks a lot though! And I have a boyfriend too.” I said.

“O-Oh…”

“Okay then…”

“Uh…”

I could notice their faces of disappointment, I’ve never experienced so many men flocking around me like this… To be honest, it made me feel prettier and better with myself, even if that might sound selfish.

When I was back home, I quickly made some lunch before my daughter came back, and as she said, nothing bad has happened either, so I felt relieved.

Once we were done, I decided to finally log-in.

My activities for today and tomorrow, and perhaps past tomorrow are to reinforce my territory’s defenses and also solve the many problems my citizens have through their designated, personal quests.

Ding!
