Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest-Novel

-----

(A few minutes ago…)

After leaving over half of his group behind to deal with the Immortal Players, Jeremias rushed forward, crossing the rest of the Caves atop the Brainwashed Drakon Emperor he had tamed using Miasmic Magic.

A smile surged on his lips as he finally found the entrance moving towards the depths of the caves and the underground of the Forest of Beginnings, the Heart of Verdant and perhaps even of the world, where most Spirits were born!

"The Root Forest, it is finally here!"

He quickly charged forward, only to be stopped by an invisible wall made of powerful Spiritual Energy!

CRAAASH!

"Uuuggh…!"

"RAAARRR!"

The Drakon he mounted roared in pain, stepping back fearfully.

"Easy there boy… I know it hurts, but you've gotta… You know, pull through."

Jeremias smiled, quickly gathering his Miasmic Magic into the tip of his Staff, and then conjuring a powerful forbidden Spell into his Drakon Emperor!

FLUOOOOSSSH!

"ROOOARRRR!"

The Drakon roared, powered up and going completely berserk. Jeremias quickly jumped away from the monster's back, as the abominable creature rushed forward, impacting the barrier with all its might.

CRAAAASSSSSSHHH!!!

"ROOAAAARRRR!!!!"

"Keep pushing! Destroy yourself if necessary! Break that Barrier!" Jeremias tyrannically ordered the Monster.

The Drakon continued pushing and pushing, even when its body began to be burned and melted away into a soup of flesh and scales. The Drakon's Aura surged from within its body, exploding into an enormous blast of pure darkness that impacted the barrier, its very core shattered as the beast detonated itself on a last struggle!

BOOOOOOMMMM!!!

Crack… crack…!

The Barrier was covered by deadly miasma everywhere, quickly gaining countless cracks that shattered the entire barrier and ultimately opened a way for everyone to get through.

Not only that, but the barrier was so damaged and infected by the Miasma that it completely deactivated, the Tree of Beginnings quickly felt an enormous amount of pain.

"UUUAAGGH!"

His scream echoed across the entire forest, Fairies, Gnomes, Brownies, Squirrel-kin, and the Spirits of the Forest, and even the Mushroom Brigade and Monsters and Beasts looked all back to the Tree's scream.

It was almost guttural in nature, making everyone feel a terrifying feeling deep inside their souls and bodies. People began to panic.

"What is happening?!"

"Was that… the forest screaming?!"

"The Tree of Beginnings… It is suffering!"

"Why?! What's going on?!"

"This is bad… this is really bad!"

The Fairies around the Fairy Country panicked, as they watched over Queen Titania, who was asleep over her bed to concentrate into being of help for Planta and the rest through her Spiritual Projection.

"Queen Titania, what sorts of dangers are you facing?" The several Fairies wondered…

Meanwhile, the laughter of Jeremias could be heard all over the Root Forest. His wicked red eyes filled with fanatism over an aberrant being that simply wanted to lay waste into this entire world delighted themselves before the scream of the Tree of Beginnings!

"Bwahahaha! Yes, scream! SCREAM! Once we destroy the last child of the Original Spirit Tree, this entire world will be doomed to become a wasteland of Miasma! Our Lord shall reign supreme, and all of us will rule this world!"

Jeremias spoke with insane words but his fellow cultists all celebrated. The only thing these insane guys wanted was to lay waste of this beautiful world and bring forth a new world. A new world where their past mistakes and all those they abhorred could be left behind, a completely new beginning.

"Continue infesting everything! The more the better!" He ordered, as the other cultists continued infusing shadows made of miasma into every root they saw.

As they moved as fast as possible, Jeremias quickly spotted a hidden, underground sanctuary… It was like an ancient ruin. And within it, being protected by these ancient ruins, there was beautiful roots covered with the richest spiritual essence in this entire forest.

"Yes… it is here… The Sanctuary of the Tree of Beginning! And… If we are here then… as Master has said, he had already prepared something beforehand!"

Jeremias quickly loaded his entire body with Miasma, enhancing his physical body and then smashing the ground with his foot as hard as possible.

CLAAASSSSH!!!

The ground shattered into pieces, opening a hole he quickly flew down to by generating large bat-like wings made of materialized Miasma. A smile surged on his lips as he witnessed the thing he found deep down, a sphere containing an insane amount of Miasma within with countless Miasmic roots reaching deep underground.

This was the job of the Demon King of Miasma, naturally! Over the many years he had been slowly infecting this forest, he worked the hardest to create a concentration of the Miasma he infused within the soil beneath. The Miasmic Monsters, and all the other infections happening were all due to this concentration of Miasma, so deep underground nobody could ever find it.

"It is here… Master is here! The Miasmic Core… no, the Chaos Core!" Laughed Jeremias.

Jeremias was about to touch the floating sphere of pure chaos and miasma, however, a zap within hit his hand, quickly turning it into ashes.

ZAAAP!

"Unnggh?! M-Milord? Why are you neglecting me?!" He cried. His Miasma quickly regenerated him a new hand, as he tried to touch the sphere again…

This time, nothing bad happened.

"Ohh…"

He quickly realized something.

To be able to use the power of his Master, he first had to forfeit all of his weak and pathetic human body, and become something completely new, the true Vessel of the Demon King… a being made entirely out of Miasma and Chaos!

"I see… The process shall be slow and agonizing… But I can see the guidance of my Master!"

As Jeremias was about to forfeit his entire body in a slow and painful process, he quickly sensed an enormous quantity of Life and Nature Elemental Spirit Essence spreading, coming right from the Crystal Caverns, and then reaching the Root Forest in less than a few seconds!

FLAAAASSSHH!

"What the…!?"

Jeremias flinched, quickly realizing who it was…

"Lord Jeremias, they're here!"

"The Immortals!"
