Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

chapter-246
The village of the brownies and gnomes was beautiful, it felt like visiting the village of the hobbits from the lord of the rings and the village of the smurfs combined. Gnomes seemed to live inside of big mushroom-shaped houses, while brownies used trees or large mounds of dirt they covered with plants and then dug inside and made houses in there. It was a beautiful place.
Some areas were even paved rustically with large stones. However, we quickly noticed something as we walked around, a lot of people looked like they had just came from running a marathon.
"Was there any monster attack recently?" I wondered.
"Yeah, just half an hour ago the mine where we help the gnomes extract ores, roots, and mushrooms suddenly was attacked by a large quantity of Miasmic Beasts. We managed to use magic and the gnomes help to escape and seal the mine. There was a brave Brownie that decided to stay behind to protect everybody else. We are worried about her, but she said she was a Player that couldn't… die, or something. I am worried, but the chief said we can't open the mine until some time." Sighed the brownie.
We all looked at one another with great concern."That's definitely her." Said Titan.
"Yep… Never knew that old lady was this brave though." Said Achlys.
"When it comes to protecting cute people, I bet even Lily becomes a heroine." I sighed. "We have to go help her. She'll be constantly dying there in a loop if we leave her there. It might be bad for her mental health…"
"Oh, you know her?" Wondered the brownie.
"Yes she's our friend and we need to help her like… ASAP!" I said.
"I-I get it! We all want to go rescue her but we can't… Maybe you can talk things out with the chief though, here he is." The Brownie said, leading us to a big mushroom-shaped house with an orange cap.
We entered the house to find several gnomes and brownies working together to attend many wounded people resting over small beds made of leaves and flowers, using both potions, bandages made of magic leaves, and magic to attend them. Some of them looked quite bad, with big wounds covered by black goo they couldn't completely clean."Someone bring me an antidote potion; we are losing him!"
"I need more bandages to stop the bleeding!"
"Someone bring more leaves; we ran out of them!"
"Can someone bring a disinfectant?"
"Where is the spirit water? We can't clean this miasma without it!"
Things got very grim really fast.
"What happened here?!" Asked Achlys, as an old gnome man wearing blue clothes showed up behind us.
"Who are ya? What do you want?" He asked. "Outsiders are usually not allowed to enter, who are you- Huh? Queen Titania?!"
"Hello Darg, I've come here to bring you help. These are my champions. I believe there's no time for introductions, let them aid you." Said Queen Titania.
"I-Is this a projection of yours using spirit magic?! Only someone amazing could even bring you in such a way- You! You're the one?!" Darg looked at me.
"E-Eh? Yeah! But can I help healing the people? We can't stand here looking while everyone's suffering…" I said.
"Hah… well, try your best. There's no way to heal miasma-infected wounds normally. Those damn miasmic beast got us good by showing up out of nowhere. To make things worse the mine got closed with someone inside. People's panicking and we don't know what to do…" The chief said, sighing. "And- EH?!"
As he rambled, we were already moving, as we rushed towards the wounded people with Florie, Titan, and Acorn, and used a combination of potions and magic to heal them all.
Acorn used the potions we used an imitation of the potion we used to heal his tribe from the miasmic disease over the infected wounds, easily destroying the miasma in the process and disinfecting the wounds. I used my magic to heal them properly and close wounds with Titan's assistance.
But we mostly used a ton of potions. After that, we made them heal my vegetables and fruits I've harvested, which enhanced stamina, health regeneration, and magic regeneration too.
"Wh-What? What happened? Eh? Huh? AH?!"
The chief was going crazy because he couldn't even understand how we did everything so fast, he was completely perplexed, in fact.
"Darg I told you they were my champions. They were the ones that defeated the Snake Queen." Said Titania.
"WAIT, THOSE ARE THE ONES?!" The old gnome man almost jumped out of his house through the ceiling in surprise.
"Ah, thank you so much…"
"I feel so relieved now…"
"I-I thought I was going to die, buaaaahh!"
"This fruit is yummy, eat and don't cry, sister."
"Thank you so much little squirrel!"
"M-My wounds… they're cleansed? And this orange is so refreshing… I feel so relieved now…"
It seems hat things turned out just fine thanks to our quick intervention, nobody died thankfully, although many were about to kick the bucket… The food I brought was also useful, enhancing their regeneration and also filling them with the energy they lost.
After some time, the Chief quickly brought himself back up and offered a private meeting inside of his room, where we were given small little seats where we could barely seat.
"Thank you so much for your help, sorry for doubting you before, I was very nervous myself so I kind of lost it…" He sighed. "I-I amazed by your abilities, that potion you used… just how did you even make that? We had been trying for so long to find a recipe to clean miasma from wounds or the body but we never could figure it out… And that healing magic was even more effective than ours as well, it felt just… stronger, even when most of us are proficient in magic since we were children."
"Well I am a Hamadryad." I said. "Maybe that makes my healing magic stronger?"
