Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

Chapter 1017: Opening The Gift



-----

"Good morning- Huh? What's wrong with you two?"

Elena walked out of her room, and found the two of us standing right there, in the middle of the living room, still process everything we just heard from that frog.

"A-Ah, good morning." I smiled. "N-Nothing at all! We were just… Err, admiring the view of the house. It's a pretty house, isn't it?"

"Yeah…" Mark nodded.

"Huh? You two are acting weird! What's wrong?" My daughter yawned. "Just tell me…"

She sat down to drink some tea in the morning, taking two slices of bread and putting them on the toaster.

"Well…"

I explained to her what just happened, and my daughter was still trying to understand too.

"Wait, what? Ugh, mom, why do you always get yourself involved with weird people? Is that your talent or something? Or just bad luck?" My daughter sighed, taking a bite out of a toast with both butter and strawberry jam.

"Maybe just bad luck." I sighed. "Or perhaps too much good luck, which ends up giving me too many weird opportunities."

"Well, what happened is for a reason, and he left something behind." Said Mark. "It still nice to have good relationships with those Spirits, though I don't know if I would go as far as helping them or becoming their guardians…"

"Yeah, I don't know if the frog was implying the Queen of Dreams wanted me turn me into her Dream Weaver, it would be weird…" I said. "Heaven gave me a Halo, but they don't really tell me what to do. If that ever happens, I hope it's the same for the Dream Realm and becoming a Dream Weaver."

"Sounds interesting though, but what type of people would ever have the power to mess with such a far away Realm anyways?" Elena asked.

"I don't know, we've already learned there are apparently Gods out there, with Kalma being a prime example of that. I don't know how these Gods even came into existence, but I think they might've been born out of people's beliefs about certain aspects in certain areas of the world…" I said. "They are probably seeing the First Contact as a new opportunity to rise from their former, decaying selves.

Maybe not Warlocks, but maybe other Gods want to draw power from the Dream Realm."

"Interesting theory, but we didn't really get much information other than the bare bones of bare bones…" Mark said. "I would say we shouldn't worry for now. Let's just focus on what we need to do, to be honest."

"Hmm, you're not wrong." Elena nodded. "So what's next?"

"Ah, I was planning on checking the garden and the domain today, and then we'll log back in after going to the gym for two hours?" I wondered. "The usual routine, we got a lot to do. But once we get back on Arcadia, I think we should prepare our disguises to go to the Magician Tower, and also we need to check on Ambil, I think the Crafting Competition was today? Or tomorrow, I don't remember well."

"Well he didn't mention it yesterday, so maybe tomorrow." Mark nodded. "The Magician Tower infiltration will sure be tough, and I doubt it'll all go easy. We might end up screwing things up and fighting every single cultist…"

"Right…" I sighed. "Well, if that happens, we gotta be well prepared. Let's focus some time to also use all the items we got, to get as strong as possible. Also did you get to max level already? I already got my evolution notification."

"Yeah, I did." Mark nodded. "I also fulfilled some strange requirements… I don't know what I'll even evolve into."

"I also hit Level 300, it said I gotta do a weird Trial inside a Tower at the Northeast of the Verdant Continent, what a pain. I guess I'll be ignoring that until we're done with whatever's left at the Luminous Kingdom." My daughter said. "Also, when are my classes starting?"

"They should be starting next month, there's like a week left." I said. "I guess we have to get things done by then."

"Yup… Mom, did you make pancakes?" Elena asked with the voice of a spoiled daughter.

"Hahaha, I'll make some." I giggled. "Mooch." I gave her a big kiss on her forehead before going to cook something for my little princess.

As I cooked the pancakes using several hands I grew out of my body made out of wood, I looked at the little pink bag that Frogginton left behind.

And then the Voice of the World whispered to me once more.

[The [Dream Spirit: Frogginton] has left behind a small [Dream Sachet Gift] as an offering for your Developing Domain.]

[Do you wish to open it?]

Is it my idea or is the Voice of the World becoming more and more interactive? It feels like she's doing her best to feel like the System from Arcadia.

"Let's see…"

I opened the small pink leather bag, as I found more than I expected inside. There were emerald-colored coins, around fifty of them, a little Dream Catcher that would fit as a keychain, and a pink colored pearl.

[You have opened the [Dream Sachet Gift]!]

[You received the following rewards]: [Spirit Crystal Coins: 50] [Dream Catcher Catalyzer] [Fantasy Dream Pearl]

"I got fifty more coins… So these coins aren't just mine, they're some sort of currency spirits and magical beings use? Interesting…" I nodded. "And what are these items for?"

-----

[Dream Catcher Catalyzer]

A Protection Charm crafted by Frogginton for his dear new friend.

It is a special Charm imbued with Dream Attribute Spirit Energy.

When placed near a sleeping person, the Dream Catcher Catalyzer will absorb any Nightmares or Bad Dreams and turn them into Spirit Energy for the Domain it is connected with.

-----

Oh wow, not bad! I'll place it near my bed right away.

After placing it, I looked at the pearl.

-----

[Fantasy Dream Pearl]

A Pearl refined by absorbing and crystalizing Spirit Dream Dew, extracted from the Fountains of Fantasia within the depths of the Realm of Dreams and Nightmares.

If the user is compatible, it can be digested to gain a large quantity of Dream Attribute Runes within the Physique or Magic Circle, with a small chance to obtain a new Dream Attribute Spell.

If the user is not compatible, ingesting the Pearl might cause intense hallucinations and brain damage.

-----

Even the item descriptions are becoming better! Is it because my Spirit Eyes have become stronger, so I can extract information from magical items much more easily?

Well, whatever the case is, this peal is good for me, I do have affinity for Dream Attribute, but anybody else shouldn't consume this.

I swallowed the pearl, which had no taste at all with some water.

FLASH!

And then I felt the changes immediately, a flaring pink flame surged from my chest, spreading through the rest of my body.

I got a bit scared as I thought my family would see me burning, but they seemed unable to see the flames.

"Are these… Dream Flames?"

The flames quickly went back to my chest, placing themselves within my Magic Circle, and creating pink colored runes.

And I felt a new surge of magical power…

I think I Ranked Up!
