Chapter 1039: Brisingra's New Opportunity
"Indeed, she\'s very attentive and humble, and very gentle and thoughtful, also strong, intelligent, and always thinks of others, very empathetic!" said Nieve. "She would make the most perfect queen in the world… E-Even surpassing Queen Titania!"
"Even me?!" Little Titania gasped. "Woow! Yeah, auntie Planta is that cool!"
"Everyone, you\'re embarrassing me now…" I covered my face. "I will think about it but please don\'t force me…"

"Hahah, I suppose I overstepped my boundaries there, sorry," Mark patted my shoulders. "I know we\'re busy, I shouldn\'t have said that out of nowhere…"
"Nah, well, it\'s fine, I do agree a bit with it~" I said, kissing his lips. "But maybe you should also be a King? Hm? I would need one after all…"
"K-King? Me?!" Mark was the embarrassed one now. "T-That\'s… I never considered that."
"Titan would make a good king I think!" Acorn said. "He\'s strong and gentle, and thoughtful!"
"He would be a good King, if he was chosen by Lady Planta\'s heart, it means he\'s also a pure-hearted man," Nieve nodded.
"Uncle\'s the king obviously!" Little Titania nodded.
"Heheh, he\'s a bit shy sometimes, but Uncle Titan is very strong and gentle, he\'s a gentle giant, he would make a good king, he reminds me of dad," Brisingra giggled.
"E-Everyone, stop it already…" Mark looked very shocked.
"Hahaha! Now you\'re the embarrassed one!" I giggled.
Mercedes smiled as she drank some tea. "Well, you can decide what you\'ll do later, there\'s no need to worry too much. The Demon King Continent is now full of greenery thanks to you. We\'ve begun to think about a new name, most want to call it the Planta Continent!"
"P-Planta Continent?!" I cried. "W-Wait, that\'s too embarrassing!"
"Hahah! Sorry, sorry, but I think that\'ll win the contest," Mercedes giggled.
"I like the name!" Titania said.
We continued discussing for another half an hour before we decided to move on. As we were saying our goodbyes, Brisingra quickly tried to come with us.
"Let me go with you then, I guess I shouldn\'t stay here too much," said Brisingra. "After all… Well, I did promise I would help."
"No, Brisingra, don\'t force yourself," I patted her shoulders.
"E-Eh? But… we\'re a party, right?" Brisingra tried to pretend she was fine with leaving so soon.
"Dear, do you think I don\'t know how you feel? I am fairly sure you don\'t want to leave, right?" I asked her. "You\'re not obligated to fight at our side, your help so far has been really appreciated, you are our little barrier master after all! However, I also want you to be happy.
I am not telling you to stay here forever or something… You can come out whenever you want actually, but for now, why don\'t you allow yourself some respite? Stay here with your mother, it\'s fine."
"B-But…" Brisingra muttered. "I…"
Brisingra started crying.
"Really?"
She looked at me with her bright eyes.
"Yes, it\'s fine, stay with your mom," I nodded. "As a mother myself, I know the pain a child goes through when they cannot be with their mother. I would never want to negate that from you, now that you\'ve finally found her. Even in the past, she\'s still here, stay with her and be happy. Once you feel you\'re truly ready, you can step out and come with us.
Or go back home and tell your dad, you can do whatever you want. It\'s your life, and I don\'t plan on controlling it or telling you what to do."
"Auntie Planta…" Brisingra hugged me tightly. "Thank you! Without you, nothing of this would have happened… I am so grateful, sniff… Thank you!"
Gosh, this girl really liked sobbing. She has such a pure heart.
"It\'s alright! It\'s fine…" I giggled. "However, I have a favor to ask to you and your mom… Can Titania and her siblings stay here too? You can move around using the portal I left, but if possible I need somewhere where Titania can stay."
"Oh, sure!" Mercedes nodded. "I don\'t mind having our princess here, there\'s plenty of rooms for everyone, even her siblings."
"Really?! We can stay! Saphee! Huginn! Terra!" Little Titania hugged her siblings, who were happily exploring the house already.
"I guess you\'ll have her around for now, can you bear with her?" I asked Brisingra.
"Sure, I don\'t really mind either!" Brisingra nodded.
"Alright then," I nodded. "We\'re done here, let\'s return, party."
After saying our goodbyes, we moved back to the Verdant Continent, where I had a little conversation with Yggdrasil about the topics I talked about with Mercedes.
"I see…" Yggdrasil seemed to understand. "It is quite… disheartening to learn that the people of Cloudia think of myself as some sort of fearsome guardian. I am… Maybe I\'ve been too distant? I… perhaps I need to think a bit how I treat others.
Although I was born from the Yggdragon, I am still the Yggdragon itself, I do possess some of their memories and… well, I should at the very least try to be a bit like them. It is fine, Planta. Tell them they can come through your portal to make it easier. Once the Elders arrive, I will gladly talk with them and get to some conclusion.
As long as we can have a mutual understanding, things should go alright. I would gladly let them create settlements, as long as they respect nature and the animals… If my daughter can get more friends and people to be with, that would be for the better."
"Nice, thank you!" I said, as I quickly sent a telepathic message to Mercedes telling her everything.
"I see! Thanks a lot Planta! I\'ll communicate this to the Elders right away! This is a nice excuse to go out, Little Titania has been constantly insisting on wanting to explore outside, haha," Mercedes giggled.
"Okay then! Make sure she doesn\'t strand too far away though; she might get lost!" I told her.
"Don\'t worry, I\'ll put some tracking magic on her, just in case…" Mercedes seemed to be well prepared.
With everything said and done, we walked back into the smithy.
