Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

Chapter 835 Entering The Verdant Green Realm

According to what they told me, she was a Nature Soul that represented the entire continent of Verdant, the largest continent of Arcadia, which has been the one where all life has flourished.

It also surprised me they didn\'t pray to Gaia, it felt like such an obvious thing, yet it seems Druids are more connected to beings they can at least talk to than a God that will never interact with them.

It seems the Gods of Creation favor players more than the own inhabitants of the world, as it appears they think they have been long dead, according to just rumors.

Perhaps this is the reason all the shrines of the Gods belong to the same religion? It is just the general religion of the Gods of Creation, with not differences.

"Then, let us not waste any more time. It will be a short trip inside, so don\'t worry." Austucia said, inviting us inside.

"Okay then, let\'s go."

I stepped forward with the rest of my friends, piercing through the green light that the portal created, which was endlessly swirling in front of us.

FLAAASH!

The moment I stepped forwards, it felt like I was moving through several thin membranes, perhaps they were the very representation of moving through dimensional layers.

This is a Realm Domain, and a Divine Grade one at that, it means it has become something like its own pocket dimension.

When I opened my eyes once more, I found myself right in the middle of a forest, with everyone else besides me.

The forest was rather beautiful, filled with strong vegetation everywhere, from tropical woods to jungle woods, and any other sort of plant you could imagine.

It was a giant hybrid forest of many trees you would usually not see next to one another, all filled with the background noise of many animals.

Birds, chimps, squeaking rats, bugs such as noisy cicadas, and more…

By merely standing in this place, we felt slightly enlightened, as if the surroundings felt more like a dream than an actual place.

Everything seemed slightly blurry and at the same time clearer, sparkles of green and golden light surrounded us, constantly fusing into our bodies.

"T-This place… Being in here is really intoxicating…" I gasped.

"Welcome to the Domain of the Lady Verdant." Said Austucia. "Follow me, you may get lost in here. The Fey Lands are very dangerous place for those that don\'t know where to go, even as charming and calming as it seems, mischievous fey walk in every corner."

"Fey Lands?" I wondered, following her. "Does this place have another name?"

"Of course, it has many names." Said Johanna. "Lady Verdant created this Domain long ago when her Nature Soul was born. It has evolved since then, and it has become something more than a Realm, it is a World of its own, usually known as Fey Lands, or Fey Wilds, it is where every Fey, Fairy, and Spirit originates from, usually."

"Ah, this place somehow feels like home." The Grand Spirit emerged out of my body, materializing into a taller and human-like version of herself made of plants.

FLAAASH!

Her very presence sent a shockwave of power, it felt as if she was feeling much stronger in here than in any other place before!

"W-Wait, who is that?!" Johanna panicked. "A Spirit?! No, this presence…!"

"Oh my, I knew you were special, but could it be…?" Austucia giggled. "Planta, you\'re a vessel of a Great Spirit!"

"O-Oh…" I muttered. "Well, yes, she has been sticking with me for a while now. She is the Great Spirit of Harvest and Nature, or something like that. The title keeps changing sometimes."

"It is nice to meet you two, Druids." The Great Spirit smiled. "This place seems slightly nostalgic to me. Although I was made by Lady Gaia, it feels like I also belong here."

"T-The Great Spirit of Harvest and Nature! What joy." Giggled Austucia. "I am sure Lady Verdant will be truly happy to see you! Now, quickly! Follow me!"

"No wonder I lost, you got that on your body!" Said Johanna. "If it wasn\'t for that I would had surely won!"

"You really never know when to admit defeat, huh?" Sighed Rita. "Maybe you really need to be taught a good lesson…"

"Hahaha, calm down, it\'s alright, Rita."

I calmed my friend down, as we finally reached an opening within the endless woodlands, there was a huge tree extending into the skies, overflowing with spiritual light and essence.

On their branches, I noticed many flowers and fruits. The flowers constantly blossomed, giving birth to spirits, while the fruits dropped on the ground, and slowly turned into creatures.

Is this an Yggdrasil Tree?! 

It looks almost the same as one though!

In front of this huge tree, there was a large village of people gathered around it, houses made of wood that grow out of the ground, nobody dared using the wood of the forest to make the house, the trees themselves formed them.

The people that wandered across this wondrous landscape were more than just humans or elves, there were all sorts of animals and even monsters walking around, talking perfectly like people with one another…

"This is the Village of the Verdant Green Society, Evergreen." Said Austucia. "Welcome to our little home."

As Austucia walked in, the Druids glanced at us with several different expressions, some fairies and animals ran towards us, asking us who we were, but Austucia told us not to talk for now, so we only could ignore them.

Some warier druids only glanced from a distance, squinting their eyes and finding our arrival suspicious. But most of them glanced especially at me, as if I was somehow very special.

"Austucia, who have you brought to this sacred land?"

As we reached the largest temple, made of stone and wood in front of the gigantic tree, a male druid, resembling a very old man with a long beard covered on flowers and plants, and full of opossums, glared at us with suspiciousness.

"Move aside, Augustus, these people have been invited by Lady Verdant herself!"

"Lady Verdant? Inviting Players?!"
