Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination Chapter 358: For the Dew of Life

Chapter 358: For the Dew of Life

Fairy Race's fake Tree of Life was known as the Celestial Tree, the sacred tree that had existed since the fairy ancestor's era.
None of the fairies knew for sure about that sacred tree age, but they were confident that the Celestial Tree was the oldest in the Fairy Continent after the Tree of Life.
Right in the middle of the city center, Elysia's group had just passed through a sacred area that was heavily guarded and protected by particular subtle magic. Nothing could stop them from approaching the Celestial Tree.
'Woah, this tree is somewhat similar to the Tree of Life. Perhaps, this tree is about 200 meters high.' Elysia looked up as she measured the sacred tree.
'Big sister, now what are we going to do? Talk to this tree directly and ask for the Dew of Life?' Nell intended to leave the rest to her big sister.
'En, let me talk to this tree.' Rhea nodded and flew closer to the tree.
'Celestial Tree? Hum, this tree is already at Saint-level, so we can talk to it.' Elysia checked the tree's status screen. Although she did not find anything surprising.
'Huh? You can tell just by looking at it, Ely?' Nell had a little guess that Elysia's vision was exceptional. She knew Elysia hadn't done anything to check apart from looking, but Elysia already knew that.
'Hehe...' Elysia replied with a light chuckle.
At that moment, Rhea was still covered in Elysia's invisible magic blanket. She touched the tree trunk and sent her words via telepathy. 'O Celestial Tree with origins from the Tree of Life. I, as the Goddess of Nature, have come to speak with you.'
'Hmm? Who's talking to me? The Goddess of Nature? This is my first time hearing your name. I don't know who you are or where you are from. If there is no other need, please go away and do not disturb my sleep.' The croaky woman's voice replied half-consciously.
The Celestial Tree didn't want to be disturbed and wanted to go back to sleep right away. However, she suddenly realized what she had just heard. Thus, she immediately checked around, but she found nothing but plants. 'Wait, what do you know about the Tree of Life? Did the Tree of Life truly fall and die? Are you really a Goddess? Please show yourself to me.'
Rhea sent telepathy to Elysia to exclude her from the invisible magic. She also removed her disguise magic from her face before responding to the confused tree. 'I am here. Thirteen degrees north of the current direction of the sun.'
'You... Why does your aura feel so familiar? I'm sure this is the first time we've met, hmm...' The Celestial Tree checked with her senses for the intended direction. She could feel the familiar yet nostalgic aura coming from the mint green-haired fairy. 'What do you know about Tree of Life? Please tell me.'
Rhea smiled faintly at the Celestial Tree. She put on a deliberate gentle facial expression but prone to the depiction of sadness. 'I presumed you already know what has happened lately. The answer to your question, the Tree of Life has fallen apart and left this world.'
'I- I see...' The Celestial Tree suddenly became low-spirited, almost to a sob.
Even though the Celestial Tree was ready to hear the truth, it was different if she genuinely heard it. Although, that was to be expected considering that the Tree of Life was already so fragile.
In the last three days, she didn't get any news after the Tree of Life collapsed. She was aware of the departure of an elite army and the Fairy Race's ultimate weapon, then an astonishing phenomenon in the western sky, the direction of the Tree of Life.
However, when the army returned a few hours later, she had not received any news until now. All she knew was that a divine being named the Goddess of Light intervened to prevent war. It was also from what she overheard from one of the guards. Apparently, the fairy forgot to tell her the latest essential news because of some unknown reason.
For so many reasons, she had inexplicable sentiments to the Tree of Life. When she heard the clarification from the mint green-haired fairy, who claimed to be the Goddess of Nature, she became pretty devastated.
Rhea smiled warmly to realize that this Celestial Tree had a special sentiment towards the Tree of Life despite the distance and time.
She knew her mother and this Celestial Tree never exchanged the slightest word. Well, this Celestial Tree was still a tiny seed before the decisive war for her to remember.
'The Tree of Life is no longer in this world, but that doesn't mean she's dead.' Rhea told the truth before the Celestial Tree cried.
'Huh? What do you mean?' The Celestial Tree failed to grasp the meaning.
'It's like I said. The Tree of Life still lives in the beautiful fertile heavenly land. It is the land of her dreams.' Rhea softly explained.
'O-oh, that must be a fantastic place. Wait, why are you telling me this? Who are you? You are not one of the fairies who usually visit me, nor the inhabitants of this city. What are you trying to achieve? 'The Celestial Tree became suspicious at once.
'I am not a resident of this city. You may not know who I am, but allow me to introduce myself again. I am the Goddess of Nature, daughter of the Goddess of Life, or you may refer to her as the Tree of Life. I represented her as the Goddess of Life at her command before this era... In ancient history. Nice to meet you, Celestial Tree. I'm glad you can speak in Vrelenia, ancient language.'
Rhea introduced herself once again in more detail. On second thought, this Celestial Tree was her little sister because this tree came from the Tree of Life.
'Ah-oh, I've studied the ancient language with the fairies of the royal family. They visit here almost every day.' The Celestial Tree became dazed after hearing too many shocking statements.
She was no longer in doubt because this mint green-haired fairy had a golden energy aura. So, an actual divine being! It took her a few seconds to digest all that was said by the Goddess of Nature.
'I will be honest with you about the Tree of Life. However, before that, can you please introduce yourself?' Rhea moved the conversation to her objectives.
'Ah, where is my manner. I'm Celes Quifiel, the Celestial Tree, the greatest sacred tree in Fairy Continent after Tree of Life.' Celes immediately introduced herself with positive feelings. She knew nothing wrong would happen from the Fairy Goddess, who didn't have a negative aura in the slightest.
'What a lovely name. Very well, Celes. We have several reasons for entering this city, and one of them is to request something from you for the sake of the Tree of Life.' Rhea opened her palm to point at Celes.
'Thank you... But, we? You did not come alone, o the Goddess of Nature? Anyway, what kind of request do you expect from me? I need to say this, I am just a Saint-level tree with not much talent. I'm not sure if I can help a Goddess-class being.' Celes said that so she wouldn't disappoint anyone.
'Yes, I didn't come alone. Two other Goddesses came with me. Your help will be useful. As you know, right before the Tree of Life died, the Goddess of Light came to prevent it. Currently, the Tree of Life is nothing but a seed that will grow back.' Rhea stated that without hesitation.
'If you're so sure... Fine, I'll help, but please don't place too many expectations on me.' Celes warned again. It was strenuous to act under huge expectations.
'You are a kind tree. All we need are five vials of Dew of Life. We-' Rhea was still talking, but Celes suddenly cut her off.
'Impossible! It is the same as you asking me to cut my age which is still too young. I've only lived for seven thousand years. I would probably agree if I were at Emperor level, umm... Empress.' Celes refused with panic and mixed feelings. Yet, she felt guilty after saying that for some inexplicable reason.
'We have no intention of giving disadvantage to you. After all, we also will not ask for free. We will give you ten kilograms of the best quality heaven grade fertilizer for every vial of Dew of Life you give. This is a sample. Take this as my appreciation token.' Rhea took out a pouch and sprinkled brown powder on the ground near Celes.
'What? What is this? I can taste incredible nutrition and resources from just a tiny bit of that brown fertilizer. Okay, I agree. I won't lose anything if the compensation is like this, hehe... Give me those five vials. Charge upfront, and we reach a deal.' Celes chuckled happily after feeling firsthand the greatness of the mysterious fertilizer.
'Sure.' Rhea had no objection. Then, she sent a request to Elysia to bring out five sacks of the best quality fertilizer from Nature Realm.
Rhea's true body handed the five sacks of fertilizer to Elysia, and Elysia threw it at Celes.
'O-oh, nice~ Ahn~' Celes pulled some out of her roots and buried the five sacks in the ground. She tore all the sacks and immediately felt bliss.
After that, Rhea handed over five vials. Celes received it with magic and immediately extracted the Dew of Life out of her body.
