Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

—–

This Scenario Dungeon is supposed to not go the way it truly happened in history. We are supposed to change history, to change the ending, in a way. Yet despite what we’ve done, it feels like things might still progress towards the bad ending. I doubt we’ll die or something for getting there, but we might fail the dungeon by itself, and that might frustrate me.

We are already being very active in everything, but we must be even more assertive, and look even more, faster, and much better.

Sadly, after talking with him, Arafunn said he had no memories of what happened aside from a few things, so we were unable to extract much information from him. I attempted to use Dream Magic to see through his soul and memories, but I was unable to do so, as he wasn’t real, but a creation, a projection of someone long gone.

So, in other words, we have to somehow look for clues and where everything originates within the restrictions of the Scenario itself, but that only makes me wonder, how far does the scenario go to? Can I, for example, move to the surface below Cloudia?

It feels that, although this Dungeon is telling us to do things according to the scenarios, it is secretly incentivizing us to do things outside the box, more than once too. So, while we were eating breakfast, I used one of my Yggdrasil Avatars and sent it away, very far away.

Using the Skill I inherited from Mimy called [Space-Traversing Eldritch Body], I was able to trespass the magic barrier surrounding the city and then skip through most space, doing short teleports one after another.

Eventually, I was able to cross the endless grasslands, reaching a forest full of Level 300 Monsters, which I had to ignore for now. Then, I kept moving and moving, while I talked with my friends, party, and the researchers about the mysterious marble, I kept moving to Cloudia’s end.

I realized just how massive was the Scenario recreation of Cloudia, it was almost insane how accurate, detailed, and immense it was! Did the Scenario recreate a whole world inside a Dungeon?

This only makes me think that this is truly something similar to a Dream Realm, which would then make sense that the World inside the Scenario is so insanely huge.

But at the same time, I couldn’t completely feel it that way. It felt like something else, much higher. Probably this Dungeon was fueled by a powerful Divine Relic.

“I’ve already reached the edge of the continent…?” I felt shocked when I was already by the edge, and there wasn’t anything stopping me from moving further. “Alright, here goes nothing, I guess?”

I jumped off without thinking it twice, I wanted to explore the limitations, so I leaped into the surface below Cloudia. The beautiful world of Arcadia opened up to my eyes, the clouds waved rapidly, the wind encompassed my entire body as I fell.

The young Continent of Verdant could be seen from above, the original Yggdrasil Tree was growing strong, spreading its roots everywhere, life flourished beautifully. From afar, I could see a mass of black stone, the Demon King Continent, most likely.

And then to the other side, to the East, I saw a larger continent, even bigger than Verdant! Was this the Eastern Continent?! I wanted to explore it so badly, but I knew it probably had little relevance.

However, I felt something odd from the Demon King Continent, I saw a huge black spiracle growing from the center of it. There was something happening, something big. Yet the people above Cloudia simply had no idea.

But also in the Continent of Verdant there might be something important happening there. And if the young Titania was truly living there, perhaps asking for her help wouldn’t be out of this world, right?

“Alright, let’s go.”

I divided that Yggdrasil Avatar into two smaller ones, one flew towards the Demon King Continent using her dragon wings, and the other kept descending into the Verdant Continent.

Knowing it would take a long time to get there, I simply decided to resume what was happening in Cloudia with the researchers. After what we told them, they started to analyze the marble we found.

If it was some sort of Quest Item, we were sure it would net something, right?

“This Marble’s composition is odd, it seems to have been forged with Divine Space Magic and special materials, which none can be found inside of Cloudia.” Said Mercedes while using an artifact to analyze it.

“So you’re suggesting this came from outside of the damn continent?” Rita asked. “But then, how did it get here?”

“They brought it in here! Somehow… But the security of our city is top-notch, isn’t that impossible?” Cecilia wondered.

“It might be possible somehow, maybe if the people in charge of the security are somewhat colluding with these cultists.” Said Elbedo. “We’ll have to investigate that place then, the area connected to the walls which open to every road of this continent.”

“Wait, how about we use the relic to detect where it goes first?” Asked Mark, I nodded at his words.

“Yeah, yeah!” I nodded.

“Very well, let me see.” Said Mercedes, using the large eye-shaped item.

The marble and the demon ashes, we decided to look for their origins at the same time. And the results were more surprising than we imagined. The marble, indeed, linked outside of the continent. With my Avatar flying to the Demon Continent, I saw a huge black trail leading there!

And then, the ashes, they linked to the walls, apparently to the ones to the northeast. Indeed, it seemed that the clues we had were in fact, correct.

“The marble links to the Demon King Continent?! It’s impossible to go there, sadly…” Hermes sighed. “We would never be allowed to get there, and if we tried, and somehow got there, we would get eaten by the monsters.”

“I suppose we can only follow the link left behind in the walls, just as I thought.” Elbedo said.

“Yeah, let’s go there then.” I smiled.

I decided to keep it a secret that I was moving to the Demon King Continent for now.
