Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

"Lily, wait!"

I quickly chased Lily down the street.

"E-Eh? Elayne?"

"I forgot that I didn't even tried to help you with the game set up at all… Is it okay for me to take a little visit at your house so I can help you out?"

"Oh! Right! I was already wondering I would need to find some tutorial in youtube…"

Like that, we went back to the plant and gardening store and Lily led me to her home, which was right in the back of her store. She offered me some tea, but I was in quite the hurry so I just decided to help her without drinking tea.

Lily quickly sat down over her bed as I told her, as I quickly set up the helmet and then put it over her head, the game cartridge was already installed and all was running excellently.

"This was awfully swift, Elayne, thanks a lot…"

Lily quickly logged in the game, as she seemed to have fallen asleep.

After like five minutes, she came back.

"It was incredible… it felt like I was in another world…" She said while opening her eyes.

"Eh? You're back pretty quickly… Did you go to the forest I told you?" I wondered.

"Yeah, but I appeared in a different area underground… I choose a special race that I found very cute…" She said with a smile.

"I see, what's your game name?" I wondered.

"It's… GardenerLily87…" She said slightly shyly.

"I see, got it! I'll see you in the game now." I said. Lily quickly followed me as she waved her hand while I walked back home.

"Thanks a lot for your help, Elayne, you're really a sweetheart. Have a nice trip!" She said.

"Likewise, see you soon in the game then!" I said.

"Yeah!" Lily was happy, quickly going back to her room, I bet.

She probably will become quite addicted to the game; she had a very good reaction to it.

And now… let's go back home!

…

After a few minutes of walking rapidly back home, I found myself sitting over my bed, with the helmet over my head. I closed the door of my room tightly and then quickly decided to log-in.

This time around I logged-in to the game very early, it was still day when I logged in and the beautiful sunlight atop the sky illuminated the beauty of this forest.

I found myself resting over a bed in the fairy kingdom's castle, as I quickly stood up. I receive some messages, Rita and Mark were logged since an hour ago, I had received some messages of Rita a lot before logging in, but because I was busy with Lily I couldn't properly answer her.

She got very jealous when she read I was going around with a new female friend, and she said she didn't knew of any old hag named Lily, I quickly reprimanded her after that though.

[Rita]: Elayne! Come on, log-in already! We are waiting for you with the big Titan and the boys.

[Elayne]: I am still busy, calm down a bit. You've gotten super addicted to the game, haven't you?

[Rita]: Ugh… I am just bored and want to do something with my best friend! What are you so busy doing anyways?

[Elayne]: I am with a friend named Lily; I'm helping her set up her online shop. She even bought a VR headset so we might get a new friend. She's 52 so she's quite old compared to us, treat her well okay?

[Rita]: Eeeh? I don't know any old hag named Lily! Why are you meeting with other girls than me?! You traitor!

[Elayne]: Rita stop messing around, don't call her old hag!

[Rita]: Ugh, okaaaaayyy… But just come and log in! We can meet that old hag there.

[Elayne]: Stop calling her old hag!

[Rita]: Fine! Fine! Ugh… Just hurry! I wanna be with my bestie.

[Elayne]: You could had come to visit me at home too…

[Rita]: I've got a big family so I am always busy… I am too tired to walk there now.

[Elayne]: You're always tired nowadays, how fat are you?

[Rita]: I am not the fat one, you're a fatty!

[Elayne]: No you!

[Rita]: You!

[Elayne]: You!

At that point we began to just mess around. It reminded me of our chats when we were young high school girls. I guess Rita is so childish that she always reminds me of those times because, aside from having kids and a husband, she has never really changed much at all. I guess I am the only one that has become gloomier over time.

I suppose this is why I appreciate Rita; she always bring me some joy and a laugh when she acts like she had always acted since we meet. I bet she knows about this and only abuses it to make me laugh even more so I can end up overlooking her offenses sometimes…

Anyways, as I logged inside the game, I quickly got some live chat from Achlys and Titan, who were currently having teatime with Titania in the hall. They looked slightly different; did they evolve?!

Achlys looked almost the same, but she had many purple tattoos around her arms, hands, legs, and a bit over her face, especially in her forehead, whose tattoos had the shape of an eye with tiny spider legs?! It looked slightly exotic. Her silver hair was longer and shinier, and she even had long black nails.

And Titan was slightly bigger now, his bark didn't looked so long and seemed strong, sturdy, and rather healthy and young. He still covered his head with the skull of a goat I think… or whatever it is, with long horns, looking a bit creepy. But he now had tiny branches growing his back and shoulders, which looked like small saplings.

Looking at their status, Titan evolved into a High Treant while Achlys became a Night Elf… So they already evolved!

"Hey Planta, hurry and come here already!" Achlys said.

"Okay, I'm coming, wait up a bit…" I sighed.

It should be time I evolved already, so I am not the only one behind.
