Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest Chapter 864 Unexpected News

-----

Johanna left Planta's group after filling her stomach with delicious food and walked away without saying another word. Planta could have stopped her if she wanted, but she let the girl go. She knew it would be complicated to talk things out, but she also knew that Johanna had slightly changed this day, after all the things she experienced.

"So? How was it?"

Her granny greeted her as she entered the Druid Guild's Building, a few other Druids were sitting around, after having wandered around the entire city in their animal forms.

"You were right, granny. A great darkness that could not only engulf this kingdom, but the entire continent is brewing here. If we don't act and help these people slay it… We will co to regret it."

Granny Austucia nodded happily to learn her niece had learned the truth. She knew that Planta was a good ntor, she had the atmosphere of a good mother after all.

"So it was true, not this old woman's ramblings?" Old man Augustus wondered.

"Indeed, Grandpa Augustus." Nodded Johanna. "Planta and her friends are truly good and welcoming people. So were annoying but, none held evil intentions at all. They're trustworthy, way too much perhaps. I never thought Players could be this good."

"Since the small village where you used to live was burned by beasts controlled by Players that you've hated them all… I can understand your pain." Sighed Austucia. "But not all of them are malicious. I'm glad you've understood this better now."

"Yeah… Still, I wish I could et the guys that did that." Said Johanna, clenching her fists. "Well, whatever… I'll go to sleep now. Tomorrow will be another busy day."

"Why?" Wondered Austucia.

"Looks like they don't mind sticking around, so I'll do that for now, and see what's up." Johanna smiled. "I don't know why but I felt more welcod than I thought I would feel… These people, they're really like a big, warm family."

"Johanna…" Augustus sighed. "Good night, girl."

"Good night." She walked upstairs and disappeared.

As she went to sleep, Austucia and Augustus continued discussing their plans, preparing for the worst that could happen. Now that Augustus and the other Druids learned Austucia was saying the truth from Johanna herself, soone that hated Players more than anybody else in their society, they finally decided to trust them.

(Elayne's POV)

After enjoying dinner with everyone else, we decided to finally log-out, as we had to prepare dinner for our real bodies back on Earth now. This was one of the nice benefits of eating in the ga- I an in Arcadia, I won't gain extra weight on Earth, so I can pig out as much as I want, heh.

Once the goodbyes were said, we logged off and then slowly took off the VR headsets, stretching our arms and legs, only to find little Gabriel sleeping right between the two of us. He was cuddling with a big pillow, his long blonde hair spread across the entire bed.

"Wait, Gabriel?" I wondered, feeling slightly shocked to see him here.

"Ah… Good morning…" He yawned, looking at with a curious expression. "Ah! No, it's night, right? It's good night, not morning!"

"Did you sneak in here while we were connected?" Mark sighed, feeling slightly surprised. "Weren't you sleeping on the cough?"

"Yeah but that's boring and the bed is comfier." He said, patting the bed. "What were you two playing?"

"A ga, I guess." I shrugged. "More importantly! Let's go make so dinner, shall we?"

"Dinner!" Gabriel quickly flew off the bed with his little wings. "I was feeling hungry already! Nice!"

"He's really quite the hyperactive child, huh?" Mark laughed a bit.

After washing my face in the bathroom, we began cooking sothing together with Mark. I called for Elena, until I rembered she was out with her friends. She said they went to the sa park she visited with her friends, if I recall correctly.

But it's getting pretty late, isn't it going to be like nine pm now? And they have yet to co back! I should send my daughter a ssage or sothing.

I quickly sent her a "Are you coming ho for dinner?" ssage, while I was looking at the tv without really thinking about what was being shown there.

Mark was cutting onions, potatoes, and carrots, and Gabriel was taking out ingredients from the fridge without even thinking about what should go in the stew I wanted to make.

"Breaking News!"

However, the seemingly normal TV shows suddenly changed, as very loud breaking news popped up. The newsreader, a blond woman with a very worried and dreadful expression, started reciting what was happening.

"Just monts ago, a Gate has opened inside of the indoors Méga Park at Quebec, the reports specify that the Gate is pouring Undead and Dark-type Monsters nonstop, it is recomnded for everyone to keep their distance from the Park while authorities take care of the situation… Huh? More?"

"Ahem! Additionally, it has already been fild by several caras over the presence of various and mysterious awakened wearing strange clothes and costus. They have been attacking civilians without showing any restraint- Oh my god, what's happening?!"

The news teller panicked just as much as I did.

CRASH!

I ended dropping the plate I was carrying, and also the knife, as I felt my heart beating really fast. The images showing people wearing strange, black-colored wooden armor and holding scepters was only the cherry on top, there were countless monsters appearing everywhere.

"E-Elayne?!" Mark asked. "Isn't that where…?"

"Shit! Elena!"

Without thinking it twice, I dropped everything I was doing and ran outside the house, Mark and Gabriel following from behind.

"It's where Elena went with her friends! This can't just be coincidence!" I cried, quickly covering my face with a mask and summoning a pair of draconic and angelic wings from my back. "Mark, we have to hurry!"

"Got it!" Mark nodded, swiftly growing phoenix blazing wings and a mask, and leaping into the dark of the night with and Gabriel who followed us closely.

"I feel the presence of demons!" Gabriel cried. "Far away, over there!"

"Demons too?!" I panicked even more.

FLAAASH!
