Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

-----

"Bubuuuhh!"

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

The constant clash of weapons against the claws and limbs of beasts echoed across the streets inside of Elayne's neighborhood. The Little Fae helpers that protected Elayne's Domain found themselves surrounded by hundreds of Hollows of all shapes and sizes.

"Buuuhiii!"

The Blue Fae of Protection swung his huge wooden hammer, crushing the heads of dozens of Hollows as the little Fae moved at lightning speed, empowered by Elayne's Domain's Spiritual Energies.

BAAM!

"Gruoohh…?!"

BAAM!

"Gaaagghh!"

BAAM!

"M-Manaaa?!"

Several Hollows exploded into black smoke as they were crushed by the Fae's mighty spiritual weapons, only leaving behind black soot and a small jewel. They weren't called Faes of Protection for nothing, born from the Mystery Seeds Elayne acquired from her own Domain's Quests, they were special types of Spiritual beings that would protect a Domain with all they had.

"Buuhh… Hahh…"

The little blue-capped Fae sighed in relief, cleaning his forehead as he looked at the Hollows that had died, it looked exhausted, it had been fighting for over an hour now.

"Kyuuh, kyuuh!"

"Buhi?!"

However, it suddenly opened its eyes wide as the Red Fae of Protection called for him to watch out! A large Hollow emerged from behind him, made out of dozens of Hollows that devoured one another and combined.

"MANAAA!"

With a ferocious growl of hunger, the Hollow swung their gigantic tentacles against the Fae, crushing them into the ground with tremendous force, and then making them roll over the streets!

CRASH!

"B-Buuhhh…"

"GROOHHH!"

"AAAAAAGGH!"

"AHAHAHAHA!"

More and more of these more powerful Hollows began to appear amidst the groups of smaller and weaker ones, their shapes and forms being more and more bizarre.

One of them resembled a combination of several human disembodied bodies, with jaws covering its entire body. Another looked like a huge foot with the face of a one-eyed ogre. A third resembled the floating head of a woman covered with mouths, laughing constantly. Continue your saga on empire

"Kyuuhh!"

The Red Fae of Protection ran in front of her friend, protecting him with her two wooden hammers, looking fearless, despite how they had been cornered.

"Tired yet, little Faes?"

And amidst the endless swarms of Hollows, a figure stepped in, resembling a young man, no older than nineteen, with short gray hair and cold brown eyes, wearing a black hoodie.

Despite looking like a normal human teen, his aura was much different, and bizarre, exuding the power of both Negative Energy, Curse and Darkness Elemental Mana, and…

Demonic Energy!

"Geeh?!"

"Kyuuh!"

The two Faes glared at the man with furious expressions, their auras flaring like tiny flames of spiritual energy.

"Heheh… I wonder how far you can go!" laughed the man. "Well, not like it matters anyways…"

The young man pointed at the distance, the two Faes gasped as they saw what most people wouldn't be able to notice, a huge crack in the invisible veil that encompassed Elayne's Domain.

Hollows kept entering through there too, they kept coming, almost as if this man had invoked all the Hollows of the entire city!

"Don't worry, my friends already went there~" the young man licked his lips, looking at the Faes as if they were treats, snacks for him. "So? Shall we continue where we left off? I want to see how tender your meat will get… They told me that eating Faes was a hundred times more delicious than Hollows… I wonder if that's true~?"

"B-Buuhh!"

"Kyuuuh!"

The two Faes faced hordes after hordes of Hollows, with much stronger ones, never seen before, attacking with coordination and much more intelligence than "wild Hollows".

"GYAHAHAHA!"

The laughing Hollow laughed, opening their jaws to unleash beams of dark energies, hitting the ground, and aiming at the Faes.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

They barely managed to evade, and as they ran to defeat it, several more Hollows got in their way, taking the hits for the stronger ones, and exploding into dark soot.

"Guuh?!"

"Kyuuh!"

As the Faes grew confused about how the Hollows were willingly sacrificing themselves out of nowhere, the giant foot-shaped hollow with the head of an one-eyed ogre suddenly descended from above.

"HMPH!"

BAAAMMM!!!

"Buuuhhhh!"

"Kyeeeehh!"

The Faes were crushed by an immense weight, unable to escape the massive Hollow's weight, their tiny bodies were slowly beginning to be pressed harder and harder…

"Hahaha!" laughed the man. "I guess you can't even handle my pets, hmm? Spirits are so weak~"

The other powerful Hollows approached the Faes, their mouths drooling.

"You may have a taste, my dears."

"GRUOOHH!"

"SHAAAHH!"

"RUOOHH!"

CRUNCH! CRUNCH! CRUNCH!

"Oooooohhh…"

"Manaaaa…!"

"Sooouuulssss…"

The groan of many creatures reverberated, followed by many more of them crawling, trying to get inside of the garden. Their bodies were amorphous, made of black goo and soot, with ugly and chimeric shapes.

"Hollows?!" Katherine was shocked. "How did they manage to enter the Domain so easily?!"

"SHAAAHHH!"

A hydra-like hollow with a dozen snake-like heads stepped into the garden, rushing towards the girls! Katherine, who was a fairy specialized on gardening and keeping good care of nature, was almost defenseless.

"Step back!"

Elisa rushed forward, her arms, legs, and her neck were suddenly covered by golden dragon scales, as she grew a dragon tail and wings.

"{Dragon Fist}!"

The girl punched the beast as it reached her, the golden gloves she wore, specifically enchanted by Elayne, granted her a sudden boost of power, as her Mana erupted, taking the shape of a huge golden, draconic fist.

BOOOM!

The Hydra-like Hollow's body was pierced completely, exploding into pieces, and dissipating into black smoke and black sludge and soot, splattering over the floor, leaving behind a small core.

"Well, that somewhat worked!" said Elisa. "Aahh!"

However, the young lady quickly grew nervous as she saw three more Hollows rush towards her, resembling specters made of black sludge with skull-like masks.

Their tentacles rushed towards her, aiming to pierce her body and drain her of all her mana!

"C-Can I defend with just my scales?!"

As Elisa closed her eyes and covered her head with her arms, suddenly, chains surged from behind her, wrapping around the Hollows.

"{Mana Draining Curse}!"

FLUOSH!

The black chains drained the hollows corrupted mana completely, empowering Monica behind Elisa, and weakening them to the point they mummified!

"Now, Elisa!"

"V-Very well!"

Elisa rushed in, punching them with her Dragon Fists, their bodies exploded into ashes, leaving behind purified hollow cores this time.

BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!

However, the girls were unable to take a rest, as more Hollows continued crawling from the walls. The density of spiritual energies was very strong near the house, making their movement slow as there was a strong pressure weighing them down.

"GROOHHH!"

"More are coming already?!" Elisa muttered.

"They aren't really quick though…" said Monica. "I think we can handle it at this pace… For now!"

"It must be because of the density of spiritual energies here, it creates a strong pressure but- Ah, they're coming from the left too!" Katherine panicked, pointing at the distance. "Blackie, can you take care of them?"

"MEREOOW!"

Blackie roared, suddenly transforming from a small kitty into a huge black panther, swinging his giant claws against the Hollows and tearing them to shreds with his jaws, eating their cores.

"He can handle that area well enough…!" Katherine flew into the skies to see where the Hollows were coming from.

Only for her eyes to widen as she saw hundreds of them surrounding the entire property…

"S-So many…! Where did they all come from?!"

As the fairy panicked, suddenly, a giant arrow made of black flames rushed towards her.

"Ahh!"

BOOOM!
