Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

-----

As we ate ice cream with my family and friends while preparing for Mark's Physique Evolution and also sorting out my materials to see if I can help the Druids get Magic Circles, I heard a Voice of the World. Looks like the Heaven Cloud was completely assimilated!

[Your {Domain} has successfully assimilated the [Heaven Cloud] and has materialized a {Imperfect Sky} with it.]

[The Essence of the {Fake Sky} makes your {Domain} feel more complete. You have advanced yet another step into the creation of a Realm.]

[Your {Domain Core: Heart of the Forest}: Tier 4: Magical Domain Growth has developed from 30% to 50%!]

[Your {Domain Core} has developed the new Theme: {Heaven Fragment}!]

[The {Heaven Fragment} has manifested. Your Domain's skies are similar in nature to the skies of the Heaven Plane, capable of harboring and slowly gathering Celestial Energy for you to use as reserves. Additionally, your Domain gains greater protection against Cursed, Undead, and Demonic beings. Meanwhile, there's a small chance for a little miracle to occur.]

[Your {Domain Core} has developed the new Ability: [Heaven Bridge]!]

[Your {Domain} has gained the new Domain Guardians: [Lesser Heavenly Spirits]!]

[The Domain Guardians: [Lesser Heavenly Spirits] will manifest once the Skies of your Domain gather enough Celestial Energy over time.]

"Amazing… So much growth."

Not only I got a Theme, but also a new Ability and a new Guardian, or Guardians!

But what is this Heaven Bridge Ability?

[The Domain Ability [Heaven Bridge] cannot manifest yet. Celestial Energy is needed for Lesser Heavenly Spirits to descend and use the Heaven Fragment as their new home.]

So that's how it works! It is how the Heavenly Spirits come to begin with, gotcha.

I took a look once more at the wooden sign outside.

Hmm, looks alright. Also there's a new Quest, huh? I should check what they are and see if I can do any right now. Explore more stories with empire

"Domain, show me the Domain Quests, please."

RUMBLE!

The ground below trembled, as a large wooden sign popped out of the ground, there were six papers attached to them. These were the six quests…

These quests didn't look as easy as the ones from the previous Tier 1 Domain. I think that the higher the Tier, the more… well, expensive these quests become. Both in terms of effort and requirements. Hopefully also with the rewards.

"Wasn't the city cleaned of Hollows? I guess we can't easily find them anymore… But the Monster stuff doesn't seem too hard," I said. "Also there's the hunt one demon… That isn't happening anytime soon. Growing 300 Spirit Plants might take some time but not too long given my powers. Then there's… the last quest, that also will take time."

"What about the 100 trees?" wondered Mark.

"Seems easy as well," I nodded. "I just need 100 new tree saplings, I could buy them or grow them separately… Luckily, Lily has a shop and also an ability that could help. I'll ask her if she can help…"

I sent her a message and she answered almost right away, saying she'll bring me 40 saplings she had in her shop and 60 seeds to grow into saplings.

She also said that would be like… three thousand dollars or something, which I accepted without problems. I'm quite rich right now after all.

With that done, the only thing was hunting monsters and planting spirit plants, I can begin doing that right away as well.

"Like this…!"

I quickly waved my hand, as small wooden clones of me, extending from my body through wooden connections, started walking around.

I gave them plants from my inventory, which I had grown into spirit plants from Arcadia, and they started planting them.

It was 300, so it wasn't ending anytime soon though.

"While we're getting that done… I need to find them… Druids! Are you there? Somewhere?"

I waited a bit, but they eventually arrived. A white howl, a hawk with green eyes, and a black crow descended from the skies.

"Goddess is there something you need?" asked Grandma Jannis.

"Yes, a bit…" I nodded. "I wanted to see if it was possible to give you magic circles! Also, could you teach me more about Nature Souls? I want to develop one… if possible."

"Magic Circles?" wondered Jannis.

"What do you mean with that, goddess?" Rudras wondered.

"I-Is it possible to have such a thing… within us? Is this the secret behind your apostles' powers?" asked Judith.

"More or less," I nodded. "Mine too. There's also Physique Forging. Maybe that could also help you, seeing how you're all very strong, you might be able to get both right away. How about we try? I want you to be stronger after all."

The three druids glanced at one another, before jumping down from the roof and quickly turning back into their original human forms.

"Very well, goddess, we accept your offer to grow stronger," nodded Jannis. "In response, we'll also help your companions to get a Nature Soul, if they're compatible."

"What about me?" I wondered.

"You? But you're a Goddess, you already have one. This entire Domain is part of it, connected to your Soul, a Nature Soul, right?" wondered Judith.

"Indeed," Rudras nodded. "You already have one."

"Huh?! Really?"

Do I?
