Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

The other contestants were wondering what Planta’s “secret” was, she did amazing things, even if some of them had similar skills, they simply couldn’t compete, unable to imitate her abilities.

Yet, although other people would happily take all the praise, Planta has never been used to being praised, not even when she was a child.

Of course, her parents did praise her, but the world out there has always been harsh, especially to single moms.

However, since she started playing BNLO and then everything else happened, although there were a lot of difficulties, people had been constantly praising her for everything she does.

Sometimes she can’t really think straight because of all the praise, but wants to remain humble, not letting it get into her head.

If possible.

“There’s… no secret at all!” laughed Planta. “I just do my best and make the engravements as much better as I can.”

Planta’s honesty mixed with her immense talent made the other crafters feel slightly bad, she was just too amazing, shining brighter than the sun.

However, she didn’t like how they thought she was the only one doing everything. Ambil and Titan were there with her, did over half the job for her too, and without them, she wouldn’t get anywhere. Discover hidden tales at empire

“But I wouldn’t be able to get where I did without them, Ambil and Titan are very important, without them, I would never get the first place,” said Planta. “It is thanks to our equal, combined efforts, not mine alone.”

“That’s right,” nodded Ambil. “Though, I do agree she does a big part of it.”

“She’s incredible,” said Titan. “But yes, if she insists, we do help a lot.”

“I see! Haha, well, if you say so,” Horshen laughed. “Should we have something to eat? I am feeling like grabbing a bite before the last round.”

“Sure!” Goldanaba said. “I want some drink, does someone has some wine?”

“I have some…” said Planta. “But it’s better to not get drunk before the fourth round!”

“Ah, fine, then give me some juice at least… tea or coffee would do fine, I am a bit sleepy and I don’t want to fall asleep while making stuff…” the brownie woman sighed.

“I have brought some of my own food stuff as well, shall I share some of the cuisine of my tribe with everyone?” Erdragon said.

“Hey, let me see what’s that all about,” Ambil was interested.

Elena’s group also arrived, congratulating Planta once more, and then joined her in the celebratory meal before the fourth and last round.

Yet, there was someone that had yet to talk with Planta and assess what had happened, or even thank her personally.

Though, once Planta found the time in these little thirty minutes, she took the opportunity.

“Um…”

As Planta had gone to fetch something from the kitchen, and came back, she found Melisa there.

“Oh, Melisa! I was wondering where you were…!”

“Sorry, I was… Um, hiding somewhere, I didn’t know what to do, or how to face everyone… after what I did.”

“Hiding? But why would you do that… You simply can’t run away forever; you have to go to these people and just apologize. They’re all adults, if we explain to them, they will understand.”

“R-Really?”

“Yes, really, calm down now… Everything is okay, dear. That woman won’t bother you again… I think.”

Melisa sighed, as she noticed Planta patting her shoulders and then petting her head.

“W-Wait, don’t touch me! You’ll get cursed!” she tried to stop Planta.

Yet as she touched her, and a black fog covered her hands, Planta’s hands rapidly cleansed it, looking completely fine.

“A curse constantly seeps from your body… Is this part of your abilities?” wondered Planta. “And don’t worry, I am tough enough to not be affected by that.”

“Yeah, it’s part of my weird evolution, it’s part of this entire curse I took when I just started playing,” she sighed. “When I fell into a Dungeon by accident by activating a trap in a newbie hunting area. And how I constantly died there, slowly making my way through it… I did survive and got out but… the reward for completing the dungeon was… This evolution, and this class…”

“Is the reason why you cover your entire body related with this too?” Planta wondered.

“Yeah…” Melisa nodded. “I… Um, I became something called Miasmic Cursed Devil, it’s a weird thing, a curse and also an incredible power. But its too dangerous, and hard to control. I always wanted to try this game for its crafting mechanics, and I ended in this mess of a class… and race.”

“And you said it happened because of entering a Miasmic Dungeon, right?” Planta asked. “Huh, where did you find that?”

“It was far away from here, to the northern flatlands. A small forest near a village I had spawned into led me there,” said Melisa. “Ugh, I don’t like remembering that…”

“It’s okay,” said Planta. “May I see how you look like? I would like to know you better, Melisa. If you’ll be working for me in the future.”

“Um… is it okay? Won’t you be disgusted?” she wondered.

“Not at all, I have weirder friends out there,” Planta giggled.

“…”

Melisa took out her hands, revealing her strange hands to Planta, the red skin covered on black scales, sharp, claw-like black nails, and then the eyes in the palms, overflowing with cursed power.

“Ooh, that’s quite incredible.”

“I-Is it?! It’s not scary?” ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

“Why would it be? It’s an Avatar after all, it doesn’t exactly reflect your real appearance.”

“Then…”

Melisa took out her hoodie and her black mask, revealing her true appearance. She had red skin with some black skin spots here and there. Six eyes, three were red, the other three were dark purple.

There were two malformed-looking horns growing from her forehead, looking like she had cut them off a lot so they wouldn’t get in the way of her clothes.

She had pointy ears with black scales on them, and she also had black scales in her neck all the way to her cheeks. She had silvery-white hair, with red and purple colors.

“Interesting, your appearance is quite unique, but there’s nothing ugly about it? Who exactly was so scared of you to call you ugly, Melisa? You’re so cute!” laughed Planta.

“C-Cute?!” Melisa cried. “Don’t I look hideous, auntie?”

“Not at all!” Planta smiled, hugging her, and then kissing her forehead. “You’re beautiful as you are, Melisa! I think what people was intimidated was not your appearance, but the Aura you emanate, those strong Curses within your body. I think I can find a way to calm them down and make your cursed aura much lesser. While also helping you control them.”

“C-Can you?” Melisa wondered, gasping.

All her problems until now…

They could be solved so easily?!

She couldn’t believe it!

“I can’t do it right now, but once I get time, maybe once we’re done with the competition, it should be possible, yes,” said Planta. “I think what’s happening is that the curse is related to being seen by others, I noticed your Cursed Aura affected me even more when I saw your true appearance. And this might also be what causes disgust by others.

As you can see this world is full of all kinds of people and appearances, there’s even skeletons and ghouls out there, you’re nowhere near as spooky as those! Hahaha!”

“R-Right…” Melisa smiled a bit. “Thank you, auntie… sniff, thank you!”

The girl ended hugging Planta as she cried.
