Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

-----

"Oh, I'm leaving too. I am not with everyone else, but I am also pretty tired, thank you for letting me participate on this Dungeon Raid, Auntie, this was an amazing experience!" Greenie said very politely.

He was Elisa's cousin, a good-natured boy that lived rather far away, but that occasionally joined my daughter's party after Elisa told him to play with them, it seems they keep contact online. I'm glad she got at least one family member she talks with…

"Alright Greenie~ Have a nice night!"

"Thank you! Goodnight."

He quickly logged out after that.

My daughter and her friends were all back home too, so they probably woke up really hungry, I should wrap things up quickly and go cook some dinner IRL. As satiated as our Avatars felt, our real bodies won't be satiated unless we eat after all.

"Should we log out too?" Mark asked me.

"Yeah, I want to say goodbye to everyone, the people from here first." I said. "Also, I'll open a portal for them to walk out."

"Sure, let's." Mark nodded.

I walked back to the group of NPCs, they had all gathered together after most of the Players were gone. My friends, such as Rita, Jenny, and Lily were still eating, drinking wine, and chatting. Those girls would stay all night here…

"Auntie!" Little Titania called me. "Where did everyone go?"

"Ah, well, you see. Those friends are called Players, sometimes they leave back to their world, but they return some hours or days later." I said. "Me too, I'll be going for the time being…"

"Eh? But… What about big sis?" She asked.

"I am linked to Planta, so I can't stay if she leaves." Titania answered. "I'll come to visit you personally though, don't worry." Stay tuned to M|VL|EM|PY|R

"B-But… I wanted to do a sleepover!" Little Titania was about to cry.

"I'm sorry, but we'll come soon, don't worry." I smiled, hugging her and kissing her forehead. "I promise you."

"Really? Pinky promise?" She asked with puppy eyes.

"Of course, hehe." I giggled. "Pinky promise!"

Our pinky fingers touched for this little and childish, yet cute promise.

"O-Okay then!" She nodded. "We'll be waiting for you, so don't take too many days!"

"It should be hours at most, don't worry." Mark said.

"Yeah!" I nodded. "Right Titania?"

"That's right. It might take a bit for me to come personally though… But I'll try." Titania said. "After all, in the future, you'll have a gigantic kingdom full of fairies you'll need to take care, it's a lot of work, and I also protect them, so… I don't have all the time of the world, unfortunately."

"I-I see…" Little Titania nodded. "Wow, big sis is so dependable… I really want to grow up to be like you now!" She seemed very motivated now.

"You'll probably become even better now…" Titania smiled. "Now that the biggest tragedy was stopped… There's nothing but a bright future for you."

"I love you, big sis!" Little Titania hugged her future self.

Titania was a bit surprised, but hugged her back, smiling.

It felt like she was reminiscing of her past self, of the innocence she once lost.

Who wouldn't want to hug and comfort our past, child selves when we were going through harsh moments, where nobody ever gave us a hand?

I myself, would probably be hugging and comforting myself all the time, I was such a crybaby…

"I love you too, my little sister." Titania giggled. "I guess we can go with that for now, right?"

"Yeah!" Little Titania smiled. Her smile reminded me a lot of Florie. I should go check on everyone back in the Forest of Beginnings tomorrow, I miss everyone from there.

After that, we moved to Brisingra.

"Brisingra, are you staying here?" I wondered.

"I-I don't know…" Brisingra muttered.

"Hmm, she should stay here if she wants." Ambil said. "Although I am letting her stay at my place, it would be better if she stayed with her mom. The Realm's stable now, right?"

"I… Well, you're actually the one in charge here, Planta. You've been taking care of her." Mercedes said.

"I want to stay with mommy for now, can I? I'll help whenever you come back though, auntie Planta!" Brisingra said.

"I-I guess so! You can stay if you want, sure." I nodded. "First of all, let me see something…"

I quickly gathered my Mana, Spirit Energy, and a spark of Divinity into my hands, suddenly, a gray and blue portal opened, leading to Hephaestus, the portal was where the gate that led us inside the dungeon was.

"Alright, this will be our gate. I set it up right outside of Titania's Palace." I said.

I realized I was able to custom edit its permits much like the other portals I could create.

So I gave it a few rules.

No inhabitants of this Realm can leave unless I allow it personally.

This is so they don't make trouble, and so no monsters sneak out.

No people can enter unless they've been approved by me.

Right now, only my NPC friends and Player friends are allowed.

Lastly… No wait, I think that's it? Yeah.

And as for Time Dilation, we'll leave it at 1 = 1 from the world outside.

"And done." I nodded.

"Nice, with this you can come outside with me, mom!" Brisingra said.

"I would rather not, everything is still a mystery, dear. We should first research what… we are first, before stepping into the future." Said Mercedes.

"She's right Brisingra, you can stay with your mom here, but you can't come out with her yet." I said.

"Ahh… Okay." Brisingra understood and nodded.

"Don't worry, it shouldn't be so long!" I giggled, petting her head. "Later, we can even bring your dad, alright?"

"Really? Thank you so much! Dad will be so happy to see her!" Brisingra smiled.

"I don't know how he'll react… I haven't met him yet myself…" Mercedes felt flustered.

"Y-Yeah, now that I think about it, let's not force it…" I agreed.

After leaving Brisingra with her mother, the two of them decided to move back to Cloudia with Sir Crimson and his troops, using the portal I had left there connecting with Verdant Continent of the Past.

She'll probably stay at her house from now on. I don't want to force Brisingra to work with me, or help me in anything, she's free to do whatever she wants.

As for everyone else…

"Then we'll get back at Ambil's house!" Acorn said. "I want to eat some acorns, and then snooze!"

"Yeah, I suppose that's good for now." Nieve nodded. "I would gladly stay with young lady Titania, but it is better to stay there to be ready to serve my liege."

"I'll go back to the Druid Guild's Building to report to my granny what has happened." Johanna smiled. "Thanks for everything so far, Planta. It was fun and exhilarating, and I got tons of super good items. I'm going to get stronger and then we'll have our rematch!"

"Hahaha, I like your spirit, Johanna! I'm looking forward to beating you again." I smiled gently.

"D-Don't get cocky, there won't be a second time!" She gnashed her teeth as she walked outside through the portal I opened.

"Then, we'll see you tomorrow?" Ambil asked.

"Yeah, yeah, thanks for helping, Ambil!" I said.

"Hmph, I did what I could." He shrugged. "Have a good night, Planta."

"Likewise!" I waved my hand.

Everyone left, and then, we decided to log out while leaving Rita, Lily, and Jenny still talking and drinking, they said they would log out in an hour from now.

"Phew…"

As I took off the helmet, I looked at the hour.

"A-Almost ten?! Damn…" I gasped.

"Even with the time dilation, time went flying!" Mark, who was at my side, agreed.

"I'm hungry! Why were you gone for so long… Feed me!" Suddenly, little Gabriel appeared above us.

"Y-Yeah, we're on it. Let's have some delicious dinner for now…" I smiled. "Honestly… Should we just order something?"

"Chinese food?" Mark asked with a smile.

"Sure!" I giggled.

After meeting back with my daughter and her friends, we ordered a big feast of Chinese food. It was the first time Gabriel ate it, and he liked it a lot. Especially the noodles and the spring rolls.

Once we finished eating, we moved back to the bed, exhausted, more mentally than physically, and went to sleep.

Tomorrow is a new day, and there's still so much to do…

But no matter how hard it gets, I have all my friends and family with me.

As long as it is like this, I think I can do anything.
