Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest - Chapter 1607: Cinnamon

Chapter 1607: Cinnamon
—–
“I am Katherine, a Spirit Tree Guard, I was given the mission of helping Elayne for a month, we recently returned to Avalon with the intention of prolonging the contract with her. I was wondering if we could use this opportunity to contact his majesty?” Katherine introduced herself to Cinnamon.
“For such a trivial thing, I don’t think I can, I’m sorry,” Cinnamon sighed. “You’ll have to do this once you get back to the capital. It shouldn’t take you more than two days either way. Time is also faster here than on Earth, remember? A day here is only five hours on Earth. You should take it easy and stay for the night, this is a nice touristic spot after all.”
Wait, that means that a day on Earth is almost five days here?! I guess we can indeed relax a little… But still, it isn’t like I would like to relax too much either.
“I supposed that was going to be the response… Okay, thanks,” Katherine nodded with a loud sigh. “I’m sorry master.”
“It’s alright, let’s take it easy,” I said with a smile. “For now…”
“Of course, but who are the other two?” Asked Cinnamon. “I would like to know everyone I am dealing with first.”
“Ah! My name is Mark, I am Elayne’s… Um, fiancé,” he said while blushing a little.
“I see, you’re slightly similar to her, are you a Treant or something similar? No, that fire is… a Phoenix? A Druid… Totem Spirits… Incredible, you are truly all very unique,” Cinnamon nodded with a pleased smile. “And you, angel?”
“I am Archangel Gabriel! Star of Justice!” Gabriel said while puffing his chest, acting proud of his name.
“Archangel Gabriel…? Surely you’re joking… or maybe you’re just someone called like him, well, it doesn’t really matter, angels have little power in the land of fairies,” Cinnamon said. “I suppose you’re also a contracted familiar for Elayne? Surprising, angels usually don’t do that.”
“F-Familiar?! I am not a familiar! I am big sis’ brother!” Gabriel got angry. “And there’s no other Gabriel than me! Hmph!”
“I’m sorry, he’s still a child,” I apologized in his behalf.
“Well, it’s alright,” Cinnamon nodded.
“Um, I was wondering what was your… um, gender? To treat you as a lady or a sir…” I asked politely.
“Gender…? Fairies can have any gender, sometimes none or both,” Cinnamon explained. “We are usually born as blank slates, based in our personalities and preferences, we slowly change into what fits us the best as spiritual beings, our bodies are never fixed into the same form. But as we grow older the way we see ourselves as solidifies into a true form.”
“So that means you’re young?” I wondered.
“No, I am not young, I’m quite old, I am simply both… I think,” Cinnamon said. “Either way you can call me whatever you want, I don’t really care. I never cared about what gender I was, but about business. You can blame my workaholic parents for that.”
“I see…” I muttered. “Cinnamon is a really cute name for a girl though, I bet your parents are great people.”
“Hmph…” She smiled lightly. “Yes, despite how cutesy it might sound, I like my name. Follow me. I’ll take care of you myself. You’re all exceptional after all, any other worker would be confused on what even to do with you.”
Cinnamon quickly flew through the building, as we followed him through the stairs, which were used by non-flying races, such as some Myconid we saw, Gnomes, and even a pair of Brownies.
All those races we saw in the Forest of Beginnings must exist in this Realm after all! Although Fairies still remain as the majority again.
“Please enter.”
Cinnamon opened a little door, entering her office, where she sat down over a little chair in front of her little desk, behind her there was a bookshelf full of documents and books.
We barely squeezed ourselves inside with Mark, Gabriel and Katherine fit nicely to the sides…
“Ugh…” He muttered. “This place sure is small…”
“Naturally, most inhabitants of our Realm aren’t bigger than a fairy,” said Cinnamon. “It is a very rare occasion when a tall race visits us, humans haven’t visited our Realm in a while and rarely do so. Druids that come here leave often very quickly.”
“I-I see…” I nodded nervously, as I managed to sit down on the floor with Mark, finding a more comfortable position.
“Please close the door,” Cinnamon asked, her sharp eyes looking at Gabriel.
“Uhh…” Gabriel rolled his eyes, closing the door.
“Thank you,” Cinnamon nodded, taking several documents. “Very well then, let’s begin with your registration. You probably have more members of your party in the city, right?”
“Yeah…” I nodded. “What do we do about that? Should I call them all?”
“No need,” she said. “We’ll simply register you as a leader of a larger group, that’ll cover everyone with you. Of course it might cost more, do you have currency?”
“Yes…” I nodded, showing her my bag of coins.
“Great,” she said. “Now, let’s begin. Please sign this and this.”
She gave me several papers, in fact, it was over ten things… I read them rapidly using my advanced senses realizing it was all just normal stuff I agreed to do or not do, and so on.
It practically was similar to becoming an Adventurer, to think Oberon thought about all of this on his own, for his people, years before anything like that must have existed in Arcadia.
“Hey Elayne, think about this more, what if it’s something weird?” Mark was a bit worried.
“Weird? These are the most acceptable terms for a mutual benefit contract,” Cinnamon said.
“Don’t worry Mark, they’re good,” I nodded, signing the documents. “Okay, it’s done- Oooh?!”
FLAAASH!
In that moment, the papers glowed brightly and the signs I left in the papers turned into various runes, reaching my right hand and imprinting themselves into a small butterfly-shaped green tattoo, with a crown on top.
The tattoo quickly disappeared after glowing, as if it was never there… Wow, so this was some sort of magical contract too, interesting!
