Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

The next morning, I woke up rather refreshed. I had expected I would get all tired for some reason, but every morning I woke up more energetic than before. It also felt like my skin took longer to get drier or rough, and my face always seemed clean and bright.

Is this the beauty inducing effects of Mana?! Maybe I could make whole cosmetics out of Mana-imbued materials… No, wait, before anything!

"[Inventory]!"

FLUOSH!

A small amount of Mana came out of my body, suddenly gathering into a sphere in midair.

Crack… crack… CRACK!

And then, a literal crack in space opened, a portal leading to a dark blue space twisting like a black hole.

Woah, this is scary.

"I-I should give it a try…"

I put my hand inside and then felt as if I was given a mental menu, in there, I saw all items stored! Nice, so I can retrieve them like this.

I thought about the lower quality ones and brought one out.

FLASH!

A beautiful red tomato emerged, I ended spending… roughly 50 MP bringing it out, maybe?

"Ah, this is the tomato I've harvested in the other world… Woah this is great. Maybe I could sell these items and make a lot of cash…" I began to think.

"Careful! The Gods said you shouldn't abuse this power, or they'll take it away, Planta!" The Great Spirit emerged in front of me in her usual carrot form.

"A-Ah, right…" I sighed.

"Though… There are other ways to make cash anyways, you don't need to use the other world's items. As long as you have mana, hehehehe…" She started to laugh.

What sort of mischief was she planning?

"We'll leave that for another time though, it's morning already so we've gotta go see the farm animals!" I quickly jumped off bed. "Rita! Wake up!"

I called Rita as she quickly woke up from her own bed.

"Huh? What do you want? Let me sleep a bit more…" She groaned grumpily.

"Come on! Wakie~ Wakie~!" I began teasing her.

"Sheesh you're so annoying…" Rita sighed, yawning as she looked at me with a rather tired expression. "Ugh, yesterday I drank a bit too much wine…"

"Ah, you've got a hangover?" I sighed. "Oh! Maybe this can help?!"

I touched her forehead, imbuing a bit of healing magic into it.

"[Restore]!"

FLAAASH!

"Uooohh?!"

Rita's face quickly felt more alive and fresh, and her nausea seemed to disappear.

"Amazing! You can freaking heal hangovers?!" She freaked out. "Elayne you better teach me that spell! Also when are we learning magic?"

"I told you we need to hunt those Hollow monsters first! But we should do that either today or tomorrow… Once we freed ourselves from the clutches of my overly affectionate family! Hehe…" I giggled.

"Yeah that's going to be hard." She sighed. "Anyways, I hunger. Go make me some food."

"Huh?! Only the ones that work get to eat!" I laughed, quickly walking to the bathroom to take a bath. "So wake up and go downstairs if you're so hungry. Mom should already have breakfast prepared."

I took a quick shower and then went downstairs, finding Mark in the way down.

"Ah, Elayne, good morning." He said with a gentle smile.

"Good morning!" I said with a smile. "Ya hungry?"

"Yeah, quite a lot for some reason." He laughed. "Thankfully I never get hangovers."

"Well, it's not like you drink that much either…" I said. "So anyways, I was planning… Like, how about we go see the farm animals together?" I wondered.

"With Rita and your daughter too?" He wondered, tilting his head.

"T-The two of us." I said, blushing a bit.

"Oh, sure, I'm on it!" Mark said. "I was actually wondering if you could teach me the ways around being a farm girl and stuff."

"I-I am not a farm girl!" I sighed. "But if that was a compliment I'll take it."

"Hahaha, I just think its really cute that you are from the countryside. Its like a whole facet you never show to people." Mark said.

"Mostly because I am always embarrassed of it…" I sighed.

"Please don't be, it's actually something to be quite proud of…" He sighed. "Honestly, I wish I could had grown in a farm like you, in a warm family… In such a fun environment… Makes it so special."

"You've never come to the countryside or something?" I teased him.

"A-Actually…" He started getting embarrassed himself.

"I see, so you're a city boy!" I laughed. "You were born and raised there… Well! We've got a lot to do today! So let's go!"

Like that, we joined the rest of my family for breakfast. My daughter and her friends were already enjoying the breakfast with mom. She had prepared apple pie for everyone, and there was also a massive circle of goat cheese over the table, with some salami and freshly squeezed milk.

"Look who's back. Is the city treating you so nicely you don't even wake up in time, dear?" Mother teased me while laughing.

"Hey, I usually wake up at like six AM!" I sighed.

"Doubt it." Laughed Harry. "Hey Mark, come sit at my side!"

"E-Eh? S-Sure…" Mark got slightly surprised.

"Yeah come here with the boys!" Laughed my father.

"You're no boy at your age, grandpa." Elena joked.

"O-Ouch! I sure didn't see that coming!" My father said. "What happened with little Elena, finally feeling like talking more with your old man?"

"I was just saying…." Elena said while drinking some coffee with milk.

"Hey sis, did you sleep well?" Little Henrietta wondered. She looked much brighter than back then, and I even felt some… magic working on her?

Huh, wait…

Did the pie I gave her improved her mood magically?!

Woah.

"Yeah Henrietta! It feels so relaxing to sleep without hearing cars in the background." I sighed in relief.

"Honestly speaking I would never get used to sleeping in the city with that in the night!" Sighed my mom.

"You really get used to it mom, believe me. Though yeah, I used to take a while to sleep as well…" Sighed Mary, feeding her two little daughters.

"You two really became another breed!" Laughed my brother. "Well I sure hope you're ready to milk some cows and goats, also its your turn on cleaning the horse poop!"

Hahahah… Yeah, life in the countryside.

I couldn't ask for more.
