Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

Chapter 1104: The Manipulated Girl

-----

Teresa glanced at the arena while squinting her eyes, she had received some intel from Melisa about Planta, but all of that was corny gibberish she didn't care about in the very least. She wanted to learn her secrets, not that she made a delicious plate of noodles.

"Melisa, your intel is completely useless, sweetie," she said annoyingly. "Can't you be more useful and just get rid of her? Your powerful dark magic should be able to blow her up instantly."

She was talking to Melisa through a Telepathy Skill.

"I... can't," Melisa said. "Guild Master, Planta is a good person..."

"I don't care if she's a good person Melisa! I want her to learn a lesson! At first I came here to learn, but all her techniques are utterly incomprehensible!" said Teresa. "She uses so many exclusive skills to her, she's such a cheat it makes me MAD! Just ruin her!"

"She has a very strong barrier... without going directly, I don't think I can break it..." Melisa sighed.

"Then ruin her friends, no?" the elven alchemist smiled wickedly. "As long as you fuck them over, it's the same as if she loses, right? Come on dear, I know you can do this. Do this for me, okay?"

"But..." Melisa hesitated again.

"BUT WHAT?!" Teresa roared like a madwoman. "I've given you EVERYTHING I have since you joined BNLO. I've raised your talent because you had such a unique class! And is this how you're going to repay me, Melisa?!"

"..."

Melisa remained in silence; she didn't want to defy her guild master. She wasn't wrong, she had invested a lot of money and time into helping her grow and progress this entire time.

"Okay..."

Melisa at the end accepted, letting her guild master know.

"Good, my dear Melisa, do your thing. And you better secure me that victory," Teresa smiled. "Ten billion gold is a really food sum of money. But the best part is the other treasure given to the first place, the Divine Skill Grimoire! If I can get my hands into that, I could obtain a coveted Divine Skill... It'll be a good repayment for all the things I've done for you, right? Don't you think so?"

"Y-Yes..."

"Yes GUILD MASTER TERESA, don't forget to address me with my title!" Teresa groaned.

"Yes Guild Master Teresa..."

Melis sighed, her hands moving rapidly, as several ant-sized spheres of super-concentrated curse essence and mana materialized.

"Go..."

They quickly camouflaged in plain sight, traveling above the ground seamlessly.

They moved towards Planta's area, slowly sliding through her table and making sure to go around her barrier towards their real targets.

Ambil, who was polishing his beautiful helmet with a happy smile, and Mark who was doing his best to finish the two shoulder pads in time.

"Sorry..." Melisa sighed, as she continued giving the finishing touch to her own armor with the assistance of the other guild members with her.

"B-But..."

"JUST DO IT, YOU LITTLE BITCH!"

"O-Okay..."

Melisa couldn't fight against her abusive guild master, even without wanting to, she was too intimidated to simply say "no", she conjured more and more bombs, in a pathetic attempt to ruin Planta over and over again.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Yet no bomb affected them at all, only leaving black smoke around, which quickly dissipated away within seconds, at this point everyone could guess who was doing this, and the audience just started laughing.

"That sorcerer is really trying hard to ruin them..."

"Yeah, nothing affects them, it's useless..."

"Just give up bro... Hahaha!"

Planta sighed, looking at Melias with a look of disappointment.

"And I thought you were a bit different..."

Melisa felt humiliated, that look Planta gave to her, it hurt her.

The woman that had been so nice with everyone, even her...

To disappoint her and betray her trust in such a way...

"I'm sorry..."

As this happened, the referee stepped forward.

"Only sixty seconds until the second test is over! All participants, walk with your creations to the judges!"

Ambil and Mark were finally done, showing Planta their creations.

"It's all done! Shall we go then?" Mark wondered.

"Wait a bit," Planta said. "I'll do a little final touch..."

"Wait, what are you...?!" Ambil gasped.

Planta combined her Spiritual Magic Powers with her own Green Magic, and the Ignis blazing powers, plus her own soul, imbuing them into the three armor parts, and connecting them together as a whole set through soul bonds.

FLAAASH!

And as a result, the armor as a whole underwent some changes too!
