Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest
Chapter 821: A Talkative FairyKatherine was a very talkative fairy, and although she hadn't been summoned to the "Human Realm" for over a thousand years, she was still very knowledgeable about many things we didn't knew ourselves.
One of them was the existence of "Realms", they were for a lack of a better word, small worlds of their own that existed between the three layers.
The Heaven Layer, the Mortal Layer, and the Hell Layer. Avalon would be located between the Heaven Layer and the Mortal Layer, it wasn't a Realm as big as the planet itself, but it was big enough for billions of living beings to exist there.
"There are many other Realms somewhere… Though their existence also depends in the belief of you humans, to an extent!" She said. "For example, Demonic Creatures and the many Realms they might come from are feed on the human's fears. The reason why they're always so strong is because you humans are always fearing everything and everyone! So it is very easy for them to grow very strong and big. Avalon has existed for many years, the belief of fairies exists even now, and many Druids across the world help this belief expand and become a solid truth as well."
"Strange…" I said. "Does this mean that… Could there be Realms where Gods are?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Kind of, I wouldn't call them Gods… King Oberon is something like a Demigod, he's the pillar of our existence in a way! He allowed you to create a contract with one of his daughters so the belief of fairies could continue, and therefore, we could remain stronger." Katherine explained.
"Do all of these Realm's function in a similar way?" Asked Elena.
"Oh, no, not all. And not even ours work completely like that. But belief is still an important part of our existence. But it is not as if we would stop existing if people stopped believing in fairies. Though I doubt that'll ever happen, the fear humans feel also gives birth to the hope for the supernatural, for a fairy to aid them, for a god to give them a miracle, for nature to bless them. See? You never run out of belief." She explained, while licking a strawberry flavored candy.
"I see, so it is kind of a mix of many things together." I nodded. "I think I'm beginning to understand. Perhaps because Mana in Earth was so thin compared to Arcadia, supernatural beings had to rely on the "belief" and "fear" of us humans to subsist at a stronger physical level. This mental energy we exude through our emotions is a good replacement to Mana itself, and it is also what gives birth to, for example, Hollows."
"Yep! Hollows are the accumulated negative energy you exude out of your negative thoughts. In big cities like this, there's always massive clouds of negative emotion energy, once infected with some Mana in the air, it gives birth to dozens after dozens of Hollows, or other creatures." Katherine explained. "I haven't been in the human realm for a while, but it didn't used to be this way back then, not to this huge extent! The larger your cities became, and the more concentrate the human population turned out to be, the more Monsters born out of your negative emotions, such as stress, anger, frustration, sorrow, and depression will be."
"So in a way we are part of our own problems, because Hollows can end up becoming really troublesome, and a danger to humans, their own creators…" I sighed.
"Indeed, Hollows aren't the only problem out there though… Canada seems quite chill compared to Europe, Africa, or Asia." Katherine said. "For example, Europeans got all sorts of critters to worry about, meanwhile Asians have their own vile demons born out of their own mythologies, devils of their own creation. Some good examples would be the Asura from India, or the Oni from Japan! They end up evolving into their own vile tribes that thrive on hunting and tormenting humans."
"Y-You know a lot for a little fairy…" Gabriel was amazed. "Not even I knew that much!"
"Hehehe, well! Aren't you quite the clueless little angel?" Katherine teased him. "I love reading all sorts of books! Aside from candies, I usually asked for books as compensation to my contractors, I also spend a while in the library back at Avalon. Papa Oberon has praised my resourceful knowledge! He specifically chose me to become your contracted fairy so I could help you out learn more about the Supernatural World hidden at plain sight."
"I see, so that's how it is." I nodded. "I wonder if a Domain and a Realm have something to do with one another?"
"Of course, this Domain you're making could potentially become a Realm!" Katherine nodded. "It has good quality, yes. Maybe in like a few hundred years it could become a nice small Realm."
"A few hundred years?! I don't know if I can live that long…" I was shocked to learn the truth.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Fufu, oh well, maybe there could be other ways to make it progress quicker, not like I know anything myself." She smiled. "Oh! Do you happen to have more candies?"
"You've eaten enough, I believe. I'll give you some later. Too much sugar could be bad for your health." I told her.
"Aww…" Katherina sighed. "But I guess you're right, I let myself get a bit too cocky there, hahah… Now! How about we begin?"
She started flying everywhere, letting behind small particles of bright green light, which started to feed the plants, making them exude healthier and stronger auras.
FLAAASH!
As she left behind this light, the entire Domain felt much healthier. It was amazing, the difference between before she was summoned and now was like heaven and earth!
"She's really blessing everything!" The Great Spirit said. "I guess your world's fairies aren't half-bad."
"I wonder if Oberon and Titania could get along…" Lily wondered. "Titania's the Queen of Fairies in Arcadia, and Oberon the King of Fairies in here… Don't you see where I'm going?"
"Hahaha, playing matchmaking between two Divine beings wasn't in my plans for today, Lily…" I giggled a bit.
