BXBX NOVEL Chapter 6 Hug Them Golden Thighs! 2
With these four great fairies here, she won\'t start from scratch!!
Eli excitedly thought.
\'This must be the legendary privilege given to people who transmigrate!\' Eli, having lived on the modern earth, had a fair share of reading novels and watching anime.
\'Think about it very carefully, this might be your one and only chance!\' Eli reminded herself.
She must think through this thoroughly. What does she need the most right now? What area does she need help the most? Although these deities have the ability to give anything she requests, she doesn\'t want to waste this chance on nonsense things!
After contemplating, Eli cautiously laid out her requests, "Uhmm... Great Guardians, as I am new here and I am also pregnant, my greatest concern is our basic needs - food, water, shelter, and money... Then, a way to protect ourselves. Lastly, a doctor who knows how to look after a pregnant woman.."
"Hmmm..." the deities contemplated. Everyone was silent for a good few seconds.
Amihan was the first one to break the silence. "Silver Dew Forest... Best place.. send her!"
"Ohhh that is a good idea! Good job Amihan!" Sylvain said as he patted Amihan\'s head.
"Silver Dew Forest was indeed the best place for you to be sent into." Zale seconded with a serious face.
The Silver Dew Forest was known for being the best breeding ground for medicinal herbs. Be it the most common ones or the rare herbs, most of them can be found there. The forest was so conducive to their growth because of the rich magical energy surrounding the forest and it was never affected by the change of the seasons all throughout the year.
Every morning the plants will have droplets of shining silver because of the dew that forms from the congealing of the magical energy after absorbing the moonlight, thus the name - Silver Dew.
"Aside from the abundant medicinal herbs, there was an Elven village inside this forest. Elves are known for their prowess in both magic and medicine. As your concern about your pregnancy, we see it best for you to stay in a vicinity near them," Celeste also agreed with Amihan\'s suggestion.
"For the dwelling, do not worry! My dearest subjects will go in advance to prepare yours! They will also grow a garden for your food!!!" Sylvain proudly said.
"As for money, we don\'t have what humans use as money, but we have these gems!! Maybe you can exchange it for money!!!" Sylvain continued.
He waved his hands. In an instant, a brown pouch full of colorful gems appeared in his hands. He gently handed it down to Eli.
Eli was again shocked by what she was holding at that moment. Eli, the typical salary woman, had a very very very limited collection of jewelry in her previous life.
Now she was holding real gems!
Real precious, untouched stones!
Seriously, these deities were really good thighs to hug!!
"Thank you very much!" Eli said gratefully, holding such precious stones, she couldn\'t suppress the smile in her eyes.
"Heh, you sure are the most fortunate pregnant woman I have ever seen!" Zale sarcastically commented.
"Hehe! Indeed, I have nothing but tha-" Eli shyly scratched her head.
But before she finished her reply, Celeste suddenly pointed up in the sky. Almost instantly, a streak of lightning fell down on Zale\'s head.
"You sure would want to go through the guardian\'s disciplinary course again huh Zale???" Celeste irritatingly said.
"Ouch.. why always target my hair!! It\'s now so curly again!" Zale grudgingly said.
"Give him a perm..." Amihan fanned the fire with her youthful face shrouded with annoyance.
"Tskk women.." Zale, the respectable water guardian, pouted crouched in a corner of the forest and drew some circles.
"Hahahaha! Zale, I am telling you. You really lacked delicacy!!! Interact more with women and they will love you... probably!!! " Sylvain couldn\'t help but join the fun and taunt Zale.
Eli dared not to laugh.
She repeatedly chanted "they are deities.. they are deities" in her head, afraid that she would also be punished if she acted without respect for the deities in front of her.
"All right!!! Back to business!" Celeste clapped her hands and drew her attention back again to Eli.
"The Elven village is one of Sylvain\'s subjects. He will send a message instructing the village chief to send you a doctor amongst them."
"Know that elves prefer to stay away from humans, so they may impose some safeguards toward you. I know, you know what to do." As Celeste was saying this, she winked at Eli, gesturing that she had a good impression of her.
"Now it\'s time to bestow you our blessings," Sylvain announced.
"You may have already figured out that here in Prasinos, there is abundant magical energy. Everyone here can have access to use this magical energy in any way compatible with their constitution.." He explained.
"Compatibility to one\'s constitution?" Curious about how magic was used in this world, Eli inquired.
"Yes! Humans, dwarves, elves, dragons.. all creatures can freely use the magical energy present in their surroundings. It is just that the way they can use it depends on the constitution they possess!" Sylvain explained.
"The magical energy present in the surroundings had to be converted into mana, the source of power for Prasinons. However, the way one can use this mana is highly dependent on the type of constitution they possessed." He diligently explained.
"First main type is the Caster Type Constitution. Anyone who has this type of constitution is able to speedily convert magical energy into mana. They have the fastest conversion rate of mana compared to others. This means that although they have lower mana storage capacity in their bodies, they can cast it right away. The most notable Caster Types can convert and cast magic instantly."
"Second is the Summoner Type Constitution, their bodies are not ideal to cast magic due to their slow mana conversion rate, but they have the ability to store large amounts of mana into their bodies. They needed to use intermediaries who would then consume the mana stored in their bodies. The most notable Summoner Types are able to summon multiple legendary beasts due to the monstrous mana stored in their bodies." Sylvain continued.
"As you have noticed, the first two constitution types have something in common, mana cannot be \'digested\' by their physical bodies. Both constitutions can only either channel or store mana into their bodies but not truly absorb."
"However, the third one allows digestion of mana into their bodies, that is the Devourer Type Constitution. They can directly absorb or \'devour\' mana and use it in enhancing their bodies\' abilities. They can use it to increase their physical strength, agility, and senses. Some can alter their appearance or shapeshift. Most notable Devourer Types can take on an army of thousands of men within a single breath."
"Based on these three main constitutions come many different occupations and races. For instance, the Elven Race and Mages possess a Caster-type constitution. The Beast Tamers and Spirit Summoners obviously have the Summoner-type constitution. The Dwarf Race, Werewolves, and Knights possess Devourer Type Constitution."
"Although keep in mind that there are also other types. But they were either rare or extinct." Sylvain recalled.
"Now the blessing we are about to give you will be... The chance to change your very own constitution! We, deities, will jointly use our power to change yours!" Sylvain, after the lengthy explanation, very proudly declared.
"Change my constitution????" Eli is confused and unsure.
"I don\'t know what constitution I currently possess. Even if I knew it beforehand, if it turns out that my new constitution will be incompatible with the new life I am about to live, then it will be more like a disaster than a blessing."
"What if my current constitution is just as perfect for me? Right here, right now?" Although Eli sees these deities as strong backers, she dared not to be greedy.
She dared not to hastily make a decision nor accept such \'blessings\' haphazardly.
Because first, there was a new world and a new life she would be facing ahead. Next was that, from this point forward, for every decision she would take, it will no longer be only her that would possibly suffer the consequences, Little Han would also suffer.
Gone were the days when she could mechanically live like how she did on earth. Gone were the days when she could carelessly say "Yes!" to every request or opportunity presented to her.
That\'s right, gone were those days!
From this day forward, she is a mother!
Everything, every action must be done purposefully. Every decision must have Little Han\'s well-being in mind! That\'s how it is when you become a mother!
Bravely, Eli told the deities -
"Will it not negatively affect Little Han\'s constitution as well? If it does, I\'d rather humbly decline your precious blessings."
Sylvain was taken aback. So as the other guardians.
Many Prasinons would shed blood and sweat, just to have a chance to encounter deities and beg for their blessings. But this young woman, a pregnant newcomer at that, dared to decline the precious opportunity presented to her on a silver platter!!!
What a woman! Not many would be this level-headed when presented with this divine opportunity.
"Zeh, You are one hell of a mindful woman! I like your character!" Zale, even though he had been behaving sarcastically throughout the exchange, he was amazed by Eli\'s standpoint.
"I approve!" Amihan cheerfully seconded Zale as well. She looked so excited that a part of her white fluffy hair stood up as how a cockatoo\'s crest would rise!
"Celeste, what do you think?" Sylvain, with a meaningful smile on his face, asked Celeste\'s opinion.
"I have thought highly of her since the beginning, as she was sent by the Overseer. But she really didn\'t disappoint!" Celeste gave an approving nod and smiled at Eli.
Eli was lost.
What are they talking about? What approving? She raised her brows with a questioning look on her face.
With a chuckle, Sylvain answered Eli\'s curiosity, "You have just passed the test the guardians made."
"We will never give blessings to people who are greedy nor those who are not mindful of their own lives and the lives of the people surrounding them. They will never be worthy!" Sylvain declared.
"As for your worries and doubts about your new constitution, we have already taken those into account. More precisely, the idea to change your constitution was given by the Overseer!" Celeste revealed.
She continued to explain with a smile. "As you are already a different soul, the original constitution may no longer be compatible with you. The guardians agree with the Overseer that it is the best arrangement for you and Little Han. We just had to make sure that you are really worthy of our efforts."
Indeed, Guardians like them do not very often give favor nor special treatment to random people. At the very least, in order to move their hearts or get their approval, you have to be worthy of their attention.
