Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

Chapter 149 The Fairy Queen's Divine Protection

-----

Queen Titania was bedridden and looked way worse than I remember her. I suppose that the curse has been affecting her for a long time, but to think it can weaken even beings as strong as her… Hasn't she lived for thousands of years maybe?

"My Queen please keep resting, it is unnecessary to call us merely to thank us…" Nieve said.

"Nieve, you did a good job too." Titania said with a warming smile. "Despite being a young fairy, you've worked harder than anybody in the knight's guard, your effort and talent are things I cannot simply ignore… you've given up your all to protect the gates, well done." The Queen began to caress Nieve's head, as the girl began to blush a bit.

"I-It is nothing, please don't mind it…" She sighed while blushing a bit.

"Nonetheless, Planta, thank you. Without you, I don't know what we would had been able to do. Now the Barrier is very damaged and we'll need to somehow repair it, but this disease is draining all my power and life… This curse or disease was most likely spread out by the Snake Queen… Hah… I always thought of myself as almost untouchable, but when I was affected, I began to realize how frail I truly am." The Queen sighed.

"Don't worry about it, a friend of us is making some potions!" I said with a nod.

"P-Potions? We have tried everything possible, there's no way that would be so easily. I don't want to doubt your friends but-"

"No, he will do it!" I said while nodding. "Acorn even healed his own tribe from the Miasmic Disease."

"Miasmic Disease?! I thought that was uncurable as well… S-So there was a cure?" Asked the Queen. "Perhaps… this little squirrel might be the one. Oh right… I also apologize for having been rude to you before, I was also rather skeptical after what that mischievous dwarf did to us."

"Don't worry, please, it is in the past." I said.

"And… who might these be? Your friends as well?" Titania asked curiously.

"I-I am Achlys, a Dark Elf… Good friend of Planta. Err, the Goddess Nyx sent me here." Said Achlys.

"And I am Titan, an Ent from the small Ent Forest. The Ent Patriarch sent me here with the mission of help this forest and Planta in her journey." Said Titan.

The two came out with good backgrounds. Though I don't know if his whole purpose is to help me, as Titan said…

"I see! You came to rescue her in the middle of everything?" Wondered Titania. The Mushrooms weren't here as I left them with Acorn.

"Y-Yeah…" I sighed. "Sorry if that was disrespectful, but we had to run."

"I understand." She said. "You have good companions. A Dark Elf and a Ent, it has been ages since I've seen both of you since the Rehashing…" She sighed.

"Excuse me, but what's the Rehashing thing you talk so much about so openly?" Asked Achlys.

"Ah, I suppose Players don't know about this, as you came after it." Said Titania. "I myself am very uninformed as well. The knowledge I possess about this event is slim. However, I know that it happened long, long ago, when the Demon King of the End… destroyed our world."

"E-Ehhh?!" I cried in surprise. "D-Destroyed?!"

"And- Ah." Queen Titania suddenly stopped speaking. "It seems… the world does not allow me to speak further."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Asked Achlys.

"The knowledge that Players are allowed to know… Is limited. I believe that when you grow stronger and discover more of the truth by yourself, it might be possible for me to tell you more." Sighed Titania. "I am very sorry."

"O-Oh, please don't worry about it and lift up your head! It's all right." I said. "We'll eventually learn on our own. The Great Spirit of Harvest and Farming also said she couldn't tell me."

"T-The Great Spirit?!" Titania asked.

"Yeah! Nobody can see her though except me…" I sighed. Suddenly, a floating carrot emerged at my side.

"So this is this generation's Fairy Queen?" She spoke.

"A-Ahh…! I-It can't be…! A Great Spirit has been revived!" Titania cried. "Cough, cough…!"

Suddenly, she got too agitated and began to cough. It seems she was able to see the spirit.

"P-Please calm down a bit!" Nieve said. "What spirit are you talking about, milady?"

"It seems nobody can see her, but Planta here has become the Vessel of a Great Spirit, the ones that stand above all other Spirits. It is weakened, but it is growing within her. Incredible, it seems you're even more amazing than I thought, Planta. I will trust you now, more than anybody." Said Titania.

"Eh? Just because of this carrot?" I asked while raising an eyebrow.

"W-Who are you calling carrot?" Asked the Great Spirit angrily.

Meanwhile, Achlys and Titan were talking with one another while spectating everything in silence.

"Do you know what they're talking about?"

"No idea."

Titania continued talking about how glorious all of this was, but I felt like she was going a bit overboard and only getting worse. At the end, we managed to calm her a bit more and we went back to topic, as we decided to tell her about the potions being made, and about our intention to slay the Snake Queen, all while trying to find the one behind the sabotage of the golems and perhaps, even bringing the disease here.

"I see, so you're going to go in such a journey… I cannot stop you, even if its very dangerous. I know you're all capable of this challenge… However, even if its little, I will give you a small gift of gratitude for everything you've done for us, and also to reconcile after how we acted against you."

Queen Titania approached her hand towards me, suddenly touching my forehead with her right hand's index finger. In a flash of bright light, some sort of mystical essence entered my head and flowed across my body, giving me a bit of a shock.
