Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

-----

The moment Elayne showed the ropes to Lily and then went back home, she quickly decided to play the game that Elayne was so excited about, Brand New Life Online. It was a Massive Multiplayer Online Game, or MMO, but also a Virtual Reality Game, a VR, therefore, a VRMMO. Lily wasn't born so long ago, but in the 80's. She was someone that had her experience playing video games on her own and with her cousin and little brother, and played them until her early twenties, when she started to dedicate to gardening and working to slowly get money for her dream of a gardening shop to spread her love for plants and gardening.

However, over time she slowly fell off, constantly working herself to almost death to get enough money, she lost contact with most of her family and became a lonely woman. She never managed to get experience with people, and all her female friends slowly disappeared from her life, never contacting her again, nor her contacting them again either. She even had her dream of finding a gentle-hearted person to accompany her gardener life but could never find an opportunity to find any.

In her previous office jobs she always found some good young men around her age, when she was younger, but she was distant with everybody, and could not truly build relationships with anybody other than the bare minimum. In her workplace, she was even known as the "lonely girl" that always spoke very little and just did her job and walked away. This wasn't really what she wanted in life, but due to her insecurities and never having accumulated enough experience herself, she never was able to step forward and find someone.

Even after she got a shop, her life continued being lonely, she sold her products rather well over the years, but as time went by, things slowly became going downhill. Her sales slowly decreased, and not many people within her community was interested in plants anymore. There were times when nobody came to the shop in days, but these days became weeks over time.

When Elayne showed up, her gentle nature and her kind heart was like a ray of sunshine coming from within the dark clouds covering Lily's life. Her smile and her friendly nature quickly caught her off guard. Elayne not only helped her with many things but even introduced her to new ways to gain profit, Lily felt like she was a bit too behind all of this world's technological advancements than she should had been.

And due to her recommendation and all the things Elayne told her BNLO had, she wanted to try the game… But also for her, Elayne. Perhaps if she were to play the game, she could grow closer to her and know her better. It has been ages since she had an actual friend, if she wanted to keep her, she had to put on some effort.

"For Elayne I want to play too!" She said to herself, as she quickly logged into the game, finding herself in a black space. In there, she was greeted by a beautiful black-skinned lady with long brown hair that reached down, as countless flowers grew over her hair, she had beautiful jewels all across her body, and her eyes shone brightly like rainbows.

"Hello, dear child. In this place, you can create your own Avatar. I am a humble goddess, let me lead you through this tutorial."

"G-Goddess?!"

Lily felt shocked to meet a goddess of Earth named Terra. She swiftly decided to shape her Avatar as she wanted, finding the adorable Brownie and their cute and child-like appearances as endearing to her, and ultimately, she picked up a not so popular Job Class that wasn't Gardener, as this Class offered more possibilities in what she wanted to specialize into.

"Thank you for everything!" Lily said.

"No problem dear, have fun. You're blessed with great Fate, don't falter in the middle of great challenges." Said Terra, gently waving her hand as Lily, in her adorable Brownie avatar quickly emerged elsewhere.

Her appearance was adorable to say the least, she looked way younger than her real-life counterpart, resembling a girl in her twelves or thirteens. She had short white hair and shiny golden eyes, with brown, chocolate skin. Her clothes were tomboyish in appearance, with a brown overall and a white shirt, and her weapon of preference, a Wooden Mace.

She quicky picked up Skills she found interesting in the way to the game, as Terra had taught her to use the bonus Skill Points and Stat Points she received at the beginning.

"All set!" Lily said happily, without understanding things completely, a small Guider Spirit guided her in these things, and made her understand everything a bit better.

She was told that Brownies are a race that specialize in shaping dirt and enhancing soil, while also being good at gardening and taking care of plants and even work on wood and other small tools. They have an impressive strength for their sizes and are also good at a variety of not so popular magics.

"Brownies are also capable of drawing energy from the soil, the healthier it is the better- Hey! Are you listening to me, Lily?" The Guider Spirit annoyed Lily as she began wandering around the cave she suddenly appeared into.

"Woow… This is really so realistic! Look, so many shiny crystals and ores… Are these mushrooms that glow in the dark? I want them! Can I pick them? Is it okay?" Lily wondered, fascinated by everything, she used her Hammer Mastery Skill to smack the ores and crystals and mine them around as she walked carefreely.
