Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

-----

"D-Did that do it?"

Elena reached the floor, sighing in relief, her body mass quickly reverted back to her normal form, the Skill she had activated her gave her very strong physical abilities, but also made her very slow, so she didn't like using it at all times, and instead, switching around only when necessary.

She glanced at the limbless body of Arthur, as his entire being seemed utterly dead… yet she had yet to get any notification stating that. Then, she noticed something. An HP Bar above his head, similar that what monsters would have.

"He's still alive?!"

Just as Arthur had stated, he gained the ability to hurt NPC because whatever happened to him, he gained the Status or a Monster, but that also gave me a few weaknesses. One of them was an HP Bar floating above his head, indicating everyone how much health he had left.

And easily revealing he was still alive, with roughly 10% of his HP left!

"I have to finish him off, quickly!"

Elena felt her entire body very exhausted, after having unleashed all her abilities, her muscles felt sore, and her Satiation had lowered below fifty percent.

She quickly took out one of her mother's fruits and ate it while running towards Arthur.

However.

FLASH!

A flash of dark light rushed from behind her, the moment she ate her mother's fruit and regained some of her strength, sharpening her senses, she barely managed to evade a stab in the middle of her forehead, which would have dealt tremendous damage as a critical hit in a vital.

CRASH!

A giant black, demonic sword with red eyes covering its fleshy exterior, reached the floor, overflowing with darkness and demonic power.

"The sword?!" she muttered. "You're… You're not a simple sword, aren't you?!"

Elena unsheathed her Katana again, and turned her knife into its Katana form too, her Aura rising rapidly as she fully regained her energies and her stats increased.

"And you are not a simple Player either, are you not?"

And the sword spoke with a strange, dark, and dry voice, making Elena's entire body shiver instinctively.

Yeah, she remembers that feeling quite well, it was the same feeling that confronting a Demon gave to her before, in the mall incident.

"So you're truly a demon!"

She rushed towards the sword, as the demonic blade quickly floated in midair, exuding its demonic, dark aura, and creating a series of blade-shaped projectiles.

"I have to thank you; you've made him quite ripe for the taking."

"What…?!"

Elena swung her blades, blocking and intercepting the blades, which exploded into demonic flames and poisonous gases each time she destroyed them, slowing her down.

Enough for the blade to reach Arthur!

"Wait!"

She unleashed her Aura again, as a giant Blue Oni Ghost emerged from it, wearing heavy-looking samurai armor, it swung a giant naginata towards the sword.

Yet the sword spun in midair, unleashing a slashing wave, and cutting into two halves the materialized aura weapon!

SLAAASH!

"Dammit!"

Elena tried to catch it as fast as she could, black lightning surging from her foot as she charged her energies into her swords and was about to unleash a powerful long-ranged attack.

However, it was too late already.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

CRASH!

The blade pierced Arthur's chest, his heart in specific, as the smoke dissipated to reveal his wounds, eyes, mouth, ears, and nose constantly "bleeding" black demonic miasma everywhere.

An immense amount of hatred and other negative energies was festering and amassing endlessly within him, coupled with all the magic powers and stats he had gained as a powerful Player.

It became an incredible source of power for a Demon, a delicious meal like no other!

"It's time to pay your end of the contract, Arthur!"

The sword, after piercing Arthur's chest, melted into his entire body, wrapping around, and fusing with him completely! Elena tried to stop him, but a shockwave of powerful demonic flames and energy sent her flying away.

"No! Is this what they were planning all along…?" Elena muttered. "Just what's happening now?!"

A storm of swirling demonic and dark energies emerged, spinning upwards to reveal an enormous and monstrous, demonic body.

"Ahhh..." The entity sighed in relief. "Much better."

"Scram! {Spiritual Blazing Blade Storm}!"

Mark roared, swinging his blade against the dozens of Undead monsters rushing down into the area, his blade was sharp and blazing with tremendous power, countless storms of spiritual flames engulfed the creatures, most of them of Level 200 and above, making them explode into pieces.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

As he fought to protect the participants, Ambil remained right by his left side, swinging his hammer, and unleashing a bombardment of powerful fire magic spells, burning through the Undead as much as he could. Because he participated in that Divine Dungeon, he gained several new abilities, and also leveled up a lot.

Although he wasn't comparable to Planta's main team, he was very strong, enough to be confident on his strength and actively fight in the frontlines. His attacks were fast, precise, and tremendously strong. His smithing hammer was not the biggest, most would consider a too small for battle.

But with the powers imbued into them, he could readjust its size and make it larger when he hit a target, while when he swung it, he would turn it smaller so it would be very lightweight in comparison.

"I might be a crafter, but I ain't being a coward!"

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! Explore more at empire

As he crushed the skulls of zombies and skeletons alike, more undead rushed towards him from behind. His senses as a blacksmith were sharp, but the undead were too many, quickly ending up surrounding him and attacking him from all sides.

He kept relentlessly fighting against them, and his armor was incredibly tough, but at any moment, due to his small stature, he would get pushed down and ravaged.

Erdragon looked at the other participants, too frozen to do anything, and quickly swallowed saliva, his draconic pride not letting him stand still!

"We might be craftsmen and artisans, but we are not weak either! Wield the weapons we make and wear the armor we craft; we must fight and protect the King and the Queen!"

His draconic aura surged from his body, as he rushed into battle, helping Ambil out. The other participants looked at the Dragon Born fight, hesitating at first, but then Horshen laughed.

"Hahaha! He's not wrong, that damn lizard! I ain't got this strength just to craft, you know?!" he roared, covering himself with an armor of spirit flames. "Goldanaba, Melisa, if you ain't fighting, protect the kids!"

He rushed to help Ambil and Erdragon, while Goldanaba and Melisa stayed there in silence.

"R-Right, Erika and BlackEye, are they okay?!"

Melisa quickly looked behind her, her eyes widening to realize the kids had been separated from the rest out of nowhere, dozens of Undead were trying to kill them.

If it wasn't for the items they crafted and their assistants helping them, they would already have died. In fact, most of their assistants looked heavily wounded and near death!

"Planta… she said this power can also help others…!" Melisa said. "I-I have to help too!"

An explosion of cursed energy surged from her body, moving her towards them within an instant, as two gigantic claws made out of her energies materialized crushed the undead one after another.

CRASH! BOOM! CLASH! RUMBLE!

And as all of this happened, three figures lurked in the shadows.

Slowly approaching towards the King and the Queen's defenseless child.

The Queen, who was keeping her husband safe while beginning to think what to do, quickly realized her son wasn't within her sight!

"Mooom! Help!"

Her eyes widened as she saw a large shadow hand suddenly drag the kid away.

"GUSTAV!"

"No! They're taking him away!"

The King and the Queen lost their minds, as the Queen's entire Blood and Darkness Aura erupted.

She snapped.

"GIVE ME BACK MY SON, YOU FILTH!"

With an explosion of Blood Energy, she rushed towards her son within a split second, materializing a giant crimson blade and slicing away the enormous Shadow Hand apart, while using her hands to grab her son in time.

"Mom… Heheh…"

"Eh?!"

However, Camilla quickly realized that the kid she had grabbed wasn't… exactly her son either. It smiled with a malicious expression, its entire body suddenly distorting and melting to reveal an adult man wearing a slimy, miasmic armor.

"You fell for it~"

"What?!"

Before she could do anything, another man appeared behind her, as a powerful Demonic Domain materialized, trapping her inside.

FLUOSH!
