Chapter 1061 Talking Plant People?!

And once I pulled it open, I was greeted by several rows of seats and at the end, a small altar, with an idol polished out of wood.

The idol was finely decorated with colorful jewels I don\'t know where they even got them from, maybe from lower floors.

And it had the exact shape as… myself?!

It was wearing a long dress and holding a small sapling on her hands, smiling gently as if nurturing it…

Have my summons just made a religion out of me?

There were all kinds of vegetables walking in and out of the church, but all of them were paralyzed once I stepped in.

They kneeled and started praising me as if I were really their goddess.

"Uuhh… This is getting weirder now."

I stepped to the end, where there was a completely unique person, someone I had never seen before. A harvest familiar that wasn\'t within my skill\'s list of possible creations.

She had the feminine and cute shape of the Enchanting Lettuce girls, but was twice as taller, with legs made of radishes, arms made of wood, and a head made of a sunflower, with a cute face.

Lastly, she had long hair made of branches, leaves, and flowers. And at the center of her chest, there was a big, green-colored jewel emanating spiritual energy.

In fact, she exuded a powerful Aura, something akin to a Spirit of Nature, but she wasn\'t quite one either.

This being… I never predicted something like this would be born.

"Welcome back, Goddess Sylphy. We\'ve been eagerly awaiting your return."

And she could speak?!

"W-Wha…"

"S-Sylphy?!"

Alice caught me as I almost fainted in utter shock…

This was too much for me to process!

"Oh my, should I have started slowly?" Sighed the girl, as the Dungeon System next to her nodded. "I-I\'m sorry for startling you, Goddess Sylphy. Are you alright?"

"I-I\'m fine. I just… This escalated to level I never thought possible. I always imagined this Dungeon remaining kind of the same, just monsters and all. I never thought that leaving my Harvest Familiars behind to tend on the crops would cause this entire… Domino effect." I sighed.

"It was indeed a miracle to an extent." She nodded. "My creation was what kickstarted the creation of the village of Eden, as we call it among our friends."

"H-How exactly… Were you born?" I wondered.

"Well, I am not too sure myself, but I know that our friend here, the chief, should know." She pointed at the Dungeon System.

"Dungeon System, did you just make yourself the chief of the village?!" Asked Alice.

The little cube sighed a bit, asking for forgiveness.

[The [Dungeon System] says they didn\'t want to be the chief!]

[At the end, Selene at his side is more of a chief than them, but she keeps calling them the chief anyways.]

"Selene\'s her name, huh?" I wondered. "So? How did… How was this girl born?"

The Dungeon System and Selene looked at one another, as they invited me to a room at the other end of the church, which had even a chair, tables, and some furniture with a few books that were made out of leaves.

It seems they were even developing their own writing language, which resembled magical runes. Selene gently served me some tea, made from the tea that is grown here, which I usually sell after gathering enough.

"Now that we\'ve calmed down, I think it\'s better to talk." She smiled radiantly. "Now, where should we begin…"

They started with the beginning, explaining that after a couple of months, the Harvest Familiars started having too much free time.

They usually wandered aimlessly around the dungeon, but eventually, the Dungeon Master found on a spark of intelligence, and one that seemed to want more than just being a mundane summon.

The Dungeon System then used information extracted from their mother\'s database to teach the Harvest Familiars a few things at a time.

First, how to build things, later, how to manage friendships, and lastly, how to cook and even communicate with gestures or language.

It was all within the span of a few months, but they learned so fast it was incredible.

However, even after having learned, they lacked a leader, someone that could do much more than them, someone smarter.

The Dungeon System couldn\'t be that, they had to take care of the Dungeon.

And that\'s when Selene was born.

"Our people, at the beginning, started to plant the seeds that would sometimes come from our bodies." She explained. "By imbuing them with Mana and placing spirit crystal dust on them, these seeds would not yield normal plants, but weaker, smaller, yet smarter people of our own."

"Unlike the sixty originals, they could grow up and were much more active." She smiled. "I am one of those, named as the "Second Generation"… But even amongst my brothers and sisters, I am very unique."

[The [Dungeon System] explains that the Harvest Familiars began to also use the plants you left behind, trying to convert them into their own, of course, without not wasting resources and only using a small part of them.]

[Eventually, it was possible to create the Dashing Radishes, Potato Guardians, Missile Carrots, and Sunshine Sunflowers out of the seeds you left behind to produce more yield to be sold or consumed.]

"So that\'s how you were able to bring the ones I had not summoned…" I nodded. "Interesting how that\'s possible. It seems that Harvest Familiars can multiply each other using their own seeds, or the seeds of other harvest familiars left behind after they transform into ingredients."

"It seems to be the case!" Said Selene. "My birth… Well, it was truly miraculous."

[The [Dungeon System] explains that the Harvest Familiars have become obsessed with birthing their own, as they desired to create their own people more and more…]

[Eventually, a few of them planted the seeds of many of them together, right beneath the Crystal Spirit Tree.]

[The combination of the spirit energy mutated the seeds, combining them together into a new being, which gained a Spiritual Soul.]

[And this created Selene, someone unlike any of them, capable of speaking and growing even faster than them.]

"Since my birth, no others like me have been born despite their efforts, this is why they call me a Miracle… Or Saintess, sometimes." Selene smiled gently.

"W-Woah…" I was shocked. "This village… It has its whole history now. How long has it been since I left? To me it has been just some days since I left the behind!"

[The [Dungeon System] says that as the dungeon develops with each level, the time dilation can be accelerated further.]

[Currently, those days were a year and two months inside.]

"EH?! Even then… It still such a short time for all of this to happen!" I was truly surprised. "Selene, have you been guiding them?"

"Indeed, since we built this church that the folks have become more spirituality connected." She smiled. "We are all grateful to you, Goddess Sylphy. It was thanks to you that we were all created, and that we were given an opportunity to live as the people of these beautiful lands."

"A-Ah, well, I wouldn\'t call myself a Goddess…" I laughed a bit. "But you\'re welcome!"
