Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest
Chapter 160 A Good Time-----
There was a meadow covered by purple and pink flowers and plants I had never seen before! It was growing near the "West River" and I could clearly see some fishes there. I suddenly felt the crave to do some fishing and eat fish, so I decided to do that while gathering herbs. We looked into a book they gave to us to find the herbs, and there were many different types of herbs, so I began picking them and putting them inside my Inventory by the dozens.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ "Oh, this Sleep curse drowsiness… Ah! This one causes it?! And there's this mushroom that can explode when in contact with mana, handle it carefully."
There were a bunch of species of herbs and mushrooms just laying in there. But I felt it would be detrimental to the environment if we just picked everything, so I contained myself and only picked one or two of any new species I found. And of course, we found the Kochi Herb, it was actually a tall grass which tip curled up and gained a pink color. There was an abundant amount of it, so we picked a bit lot of it, so the grandpa could have for the rest of the month.
With that done, I transformed my weapon into a Fishing Rod through [Plant Manipulation] and threw it into the River. After waiting a bit by using a small flower as bait, I ended fishing three big catches. They were three Catfishes, one of them was a normal fatty one with brown and black scales, but the last two were different. One was named Lightning Catfish and could attack by zapping a foe, and the other was covered in an armor or hardened scales named Rock Catfish.
These fishes had elemental materials when they were dismantled, giving me special scales imbued with elements that I could probably use in equipment if I ever make anything with Crafting, but I've barely made much with it lately, so I can't say I will make the best things ever. But if I find free time, I might indulge into Crafting and create some awesome items with everything I've accumulated.
And herb picking, we decided to have a quick lunch as we set a small bonfire and began grilling the catfish meat, while I made catfish soup with potatoes, carrots, onion, and spices at the side. When everything was done, we enjoyed a nice meal in the middle of the forest, with the relaxing and soothing sound of the West River nearby.
"Hahh… This is so good! The flavors are so strong and… Addicting! Is this how tasty the food made by Players is?! I am amazed!" Nieve praised my food.
"Oh no, I merely used my Cooking Skill at Level 2… It is nothing too amazing actually." I sighed.
"Cooking Skill! Oh, that's something only people with the Chef Class can get! Is this why it is so delicious? Only very prestigious restaurants have people with the Chef Class…" Sighed Nieve.
In this game world, NPC were born with Classes it seems, and couldn't easily get Skills that were different from their Classes themselves, which they gained sporadically. They knew about EXP and everything else too, and didn't worked differently than us, earning EXP by slaying monsters or doing tasks such as cooking with a Cooking Skill.
Of course, NPC can also cook, craft, and everything else without needing a Skill giving them permission, something that Players struggle to do, as if the System limited us, but at the same time gave us many possibilities compared to the real world.
"This is a Skill I learned from the Farmer Class, actually." I said.
"Y-You're a Farmer?!" Nieve asked.
"Yes… What's wrong?" I wondered.
"N-Nothing, I just had never heard of someone having that as a Class… It sounds so underwhelming…" Nieve said.
"Hahaha… Y-You could say that… But it is good, really!"
The Great Spirit, who had been sleeping until now, angrily emerged at my side and roared at Nieve.
"How dare you treat Farmers as lowly! They're an incredible Class that can connect to Nature!"
"Great Spirit, I don't think she can hear you…"
"I-I know! But still… Well, whatever… If you need any help, ask for it, Planta. I'll continue slumbering for now. Going to that place earlier really tired me."
That place? What place?
"Anyways, I believe Farmers are great if you're just as great, Lady Planta." Said Nieve. "What Class is Sir Titan and Lady Achlys?"
"I am an Ent Druid! I can summon Beast Spirits and control nature. I am pretty much a jack of all trades similar to Planta but with less side class skills to pick." Said Titan.
"Your temporary summons are pretty strong and handy though, they're similar to Planta's Summons in some ways." Said Nieve.
"And I am a Dark Sorcerer! I control darkness and negative energy and use it to conjure curses and destructive magic. I am a highly offensive player that also got good mobility and summons that come from the darkness of the abyss!" Rita said, getting completely into her act as an evil lady. Although she always forgets about it.
"I see, Dark Elves have a strong affinity with the Darkness Attribute!" Said Nieve. "I also remember seeing you fight; your magic was devastating!"
"Hahaha! Yeah, I am pretty great, right? Especially now that I hit Level 20, I am super strong. leave everything to me, Nieve!" Rita quickly got her head full of praises from Nieve and got cocky. Let's see how far she carries that promise though…
After we were done eating, we decided to quickly go back to the city, bringing the herb to the grandpa fairy, who quickly made himself a tea while thanking us for our goodwill.
"Ah… I think I remember now!" The grandpa said, after he began to taste the tea and drink until half of the cup was empty. He sighed in relief his mind finally felt clearer too.
