Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest



-----

However, I doubt I can do them all just today, so I'll have to revisit this place later on, and dedicate myself to help these three and also to help the Kingdom flourish even more, naturally. Nonetheless, there's something I want to ask Brisingra about, and that's her mother and her origins.

"For now, we've mostly assembled all we could, so we'll be moving the riches back to the treasury. Mind helping us out? Oh, and about Gram, we've already decided where to store it for exhibition!" Said King Dainn.

After moving the treasures back to the treasury, he quickly showed us a large glass contain where the radiant sword was being held. The contain might look like glass, but it was actually transparent diamond, an incredibly tough material.

"Looks wonderful!" I said with a smile. "So, as we've agreed, I'll keep the other Gram and leave it with Queen Titania, until we really need it."

"Alright. Here, please have this." King Dainn said, giving us a large paper, a non-aggression pact between both Kingdoms, with both Gram Swords being used as the symbol of peace between the Dwarf Kingdom and the Fairy Queendom.

"I see that's already signed. Once Queen Titania signs it, it's done then, huh?" I wondered. "Very well thought, King Dainn, like this, we can prevent any more future grudges by giving both Kingdoms an equally powerful relic, keeping with ourselves the one containing the last fragments of the Sword Freyja."

"Indeed." King Dainn said. "I hope that in the future, we can improve our relationships with the Fairy Queendom even more and possibly trade resources between both nations. We know that Fairies lack a lot of ores that we have, and we also lack a lot of food production methods here, so buying vegetables and fruits would be beneficial in exchange for our ores."

"Indeed." I agreed. "I noticed they even had their own golems, was that technology something you sold to them?"

"That's right, long ago we used to have an excellent relationship, when my wife was alive." Sighed Dainn. "But once she passed away, and after the incident where Queen Titania's sword was stolen, she lost trust on the world, and closed all her gates. After we learned such a sword we possessed was hers, we felt like it was already worsening the situation… I really hope she can understand."

"I'll try my best to convince her. She can be sometimes quite grumpy, but she does it all for her people, both of you are not so different in that regard." I smiled. "Ah, before departing, I wanted to learn a bit more about the Elves of this Continent, and Brisingra's mother. You said she was an Ancient High Elf?"

"O-Oh…" King Dainn glanced his daughter, as Brisingra nodded. "Well, I guess she doesn't mind talking about this. Then, how about we talk about this delicate topic while having lunch? Should be prepared by now."

"We already ate, but I wouldn't mind eating some more." I shrugged. "Sure thing!"

After all this Avatar doesn't grow fat or anything, any nutrient I absorb from food simply makes my plant body healthier, so I don't mind eating as much as I can. And as we sat down around a long table and started the feast, King Dainn and his daughter Brisingra started talking about the deceased Queen of the Dwarf Kingdom, who wasn't even a Dwarf, but an Ancient High Elf.

"To start with what my wife was, it would be fine to go back to the beginning." Sighed the King. "I meet Mercedes 27 years ago, when my younger years as a dwarf were already over. We live for around two to three hundred years, by then, I was already around two hundred and fifty, I'm quite old indeed, hahah."

"And through all those years you never had an heir?" Asked Nieve. "Unlike my Queen who does not age, you should had already got some descendant for the throne…"

"Y-Yeah, but through my life I've always been a grumpy man focused on my goals and my smithy." Sighed Dainn. "Although many women offered themselves to me, I ignored them all as I kept my work and duty, when my father died, leaving me alone, I concentrated in those aspects so much, perhaps to soothe my pained heart."

"I see… It must have been hard. I also… understand the pain of losing someone you love dearly." I said.

"Lady Planta…" Dainn sighed, smiling gently. "Well, anyways, 27 years ago I meet her. Mercedes appeared out of nowhere, in tatters, and covered on wounds in front of the city's gates. Everybody was confused on why an elf had come out of nowhere like this. In those times, my people was rather afraid of outsiders, and didn't wanted her to enter our city. That's when I stepped in, captivated by her mysterious aura, and helped her heal and recover in the castle."

"So it was love at first sight?" Brisingra laughed.

"Hahaha, she was enchantingly beautiful, you've inherited much of her beauty, my dear daughter." Dainn laughed. "And indeed, me, a grumpy old man that had never cared about women, suddenly fell for a complete stranger. Isn't it ironic?"

"I guess there's always a way to find love." Lily giggled. "And if you don't find it yet, it might come knocking at your door!"

"Hahahaha! Indeed!" Dainn seemed to like Lily quite a lot as well. "Moving on, when Mercedes woke up, the first thing she asked me was… What year is it in the Verdant Calendar."

"Year?" Asked Mark. "Why would she asks that out of nowhere…?"

"I had no clue, but I told her what year it was, and she seemed… skeptical at first. Mercedes was always a mysterious woman, and our first interaction was already strange." Laughed King Dainn. "She said that this world… wasn't the same she knew, and that a "Great Reset" had happened, but that it failed, and ended "mixing things up", whatever that meant. I simply couldn't understand her words. Many of my family members called her insane or mad, but I tried to calm her down, and through effort, she slowly settled her feelings, accepting her reality."

The "Great Reset"?
