Reincarnation Sim Game

Drops of water still fell quite a lot, soaking the bodies of Elise and her friends. The titan mandrake shifted from the dragon's body with a still burning body. The rainwater was not enough to extinguish the fire on the plant monster.

"Hopefully, the fire goes out before it dies," Gina muttered. "The titan mandrake's body will be covered by giant flower buds. It was a method to heal its injuries…. Well, at least that's what I read from the manuscript."

Instead of paying attention to the giant monster, Elise looked at the increasing number of purple plants. Like the one that attacked Jorge earlier, they intertwined with each other to form humanoid figures.

The female warrior gasped when she realized that some monsters were moving somewhere.

"Ah, they will be doing a sweep to eradicate unwanted creatures in the area," Gina explained.

"We have to save the villagers!" Elise shouted to her two comrades.

Gina and Checo were silent, looking back at the female warrior.

"No, Elise," Raymund said. "Your job is done. You should come back soon."

"We are too tired and will have no hope against them," Checo told Elise with trembling lips. "We should be grateful that we are safe here."

Elise's eyes widened, and her breathing started to get heavy. She couldn't imagine what would happen to the villagers. The monsters that rose from the field were numerous compared to the ones Elise and her friends had fought earlier. Even Elise knew the guards wouldn't be able to fight them.

The giant field was almost empty, left by the plants.

Elise started to squeeze her head. This is much worse than killing just one person. The villagers who knew nothing would be slaughtered.

And Elise was already a part of that massacre.

"You should already know the risks, Elise." Raymund sighed. "I told you, didn't I? Sooner or later, you will have to kill in your mission."

Elise's tears started to flow.

"But, if left unchecked, this plantation will kill more people. The drug it produces is highly addictive. What that thing destroys are not only the lives of the addicts but also the people around them." Gina used a cold tone when she spoke. "Many people will see their loved ones tormented by the drug and eventually die."

With a stiff movement, Elise looked at Gina again. It turned out that the mage's tears had also fallen.

"But those villagers probably only think of living comfortably…. They worked hard in the fields without thinking about the impact of the crops…." Elise muttered in a hoarse voice.

"I've known the villagers for a long time, Elise. They really don't know what they're planting. There's no evil in them." Gina answered. "But, to achieve something good, sometimes we have to become evil,"

Elise's tears fell more and more.

The rumbling melody of thousands of drops of water hitting the ground can still be heard. Elise and her two companions were ushered by the griffins to take shelter under a large tree. Their location is now very far from the plantation.

Instead of going straight away, the beasts slept near them. After the rain stopped and they had enough rest, the beasts would take them to the city.

"Ah, my mana has recovered a bit." Gina dried her clothes with the heat from her palms. She used her shirt as a skirt this time, while her upper body was only covered by a white bra.

Meanwhile, Checo squeezed his shirt while topless. His tired gaze fell on Elise. The female warrior just curled up while leaning against the tree. Her blank gaze was directed downwards.

"What are you going to do after this, Elise?" Gina moved her palm that glowed orange to her bra. "You can join us. The circulation of the drug will still continue, I will still…."

"Don't talk about it now, Gina." Checo interrupted when he realized that Elise flinched. "She still needs time."

"Oh, sorry..."

The man then came to Elise and knelt before the woman. Smiling, he said in a soft voice. "Thanks, because of you, I can calm down now. The idea that drugs are getting harder to get makes me happy. Fewer people are at risk of ending up like my daughter."

Elise lifted her face. She looked at Checho's smile with her mouth agape for a moment, then hissed. "But, for what cost?"

Checo's smile disappeared, and he couldn't answer.

A cloud of fog appeared above Elise's head. The female warrior still didn't say anything as her body floated upwards. Gina and Checo were also silent, but their faces showed no surprise. Apparently, they were convinced that Elise was a true servant of God.

Elise returned to my place with a body still dripping with water. Frei and Anja immediately ran to the woman while I chose to stand still.

"Put on these clothes." Wiping her tears, Anja handed Elise a set of clothes and a towel.

"Thank you." Elise accepts Anja's gift. The female warrior's sad gaze was fixed on the floor.

Frei emitted a faint green light from her right palm, then touched the female warrior's head. "I will give you the animal control blessing. However, you can only control certain animals. But I don't even know what animals you can control. You have to find out for yourself in the human world."

Well, that's a good blessing.

The goddess of nature then walked back to me. I raised my eyebrows. Since when did she hold that folded dark green cloth?

"This is a cloth that I made with the goddess of clothing. I did prepare it as a gift to certain people." Frei flashed a smile. Her gestures are much more friendly than before. "This is a token of gratitude for you. You can make outfits for your servants with this."

I accepted that and checked the parameters.

[World nature cloth]

Defense: C- (When used as an outfit)

Effects:

[This cloth is made from plant fibers grown in the realm of gods]

"Thanks very much." I smiled back at Frei, then looked at Elise, still frozen in her place.
