"Obviously pick Hamadryad."

Suddenly, the Great Spirit spoke.

"Eh? Hmm, I had also considered it as well, so I was about to pick it anyways… But still, why?" I asked.

"Well, isn't it obvious? Hamadryads are mystical in nature and capable of many incredible things, although the Hesperides would be better for Farming, which is also one of my divinities, it is more important to choose one that not only could benefit you but the world surrounding you." The Great Spirit said.

"Hm, after all, I've been living in this world and grown so strong all thanks to the many wonderful people I've met. And this forest which I've grown to love so much… I guess it is kind of a given I should pick this, right?" I laughed. "Well, I am not just obeying you or something, don't get the wrong idea, I had already considered it previously."

"Heh, if you truly choose the Hamadryad, then you'll become the first one in thousands of years…" Said the Great Spirit. "It might cause a bit of a commotion between the gods."

"Eh? Really?" I asked.

"Yeah… If you're scared, you can choose something else I guess." The Great Spirit said, taunting me.

"Well, I've already made up my mind." I said. "But how did I unlocked this evolution?"

"This one is the hardest to unlock." The Guider spirit said. "Not only must you have contact with a Great Spirit and become the vessel of one, but also you must gain the recognition of a second spirit of the forest, such as the fairies, and also gain the blessing of a strong spirit that is not the great spirit, such as Titania, all while keeping a good relationship with her and her race of spirits, the fairies."

"Oh… I guess it is the hardest and rarest of the bunch then!" I said in surprise.

"Precisely." The Guider Spirit said.

"Then, I shouldn't waste a single second!"

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom Ding!

[You have chosen the [Hamadryad, Protectors and Hearts of the Forests] Evolution Option!]

[Evolution has begun…]

FLASH!

Suddenly, my entire body began to glow incredibly brightly, as countless branches started to grow everywhere, and I couldn't even stop it! My entire body began growing larger and larger, as my legs became roots and my arms countless branches flying upwards into the skies.

"Uwaaahh!"

CRAAASH!

Suddenly, the castle floor below me immediately shattered and crumbled apart, alongside the walls surrounding this room where I was staying in. My entire body grew up to six meters of height, and my roots went all the way into the soil! When I realized it, I left an enormous hole in the castle and my body was staying immobile in there!

Oops?ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

I couldn't even move, and as much as I tried, nothing was happening… However, I felt a strange and warmth light encompassing my entire body, and the beating of my heart was intensifying constantly.

The last thing I heard before falling asleep were the screams of fairies rushing to my room, and then the voice of Achlys and Titan who were shocked to see I ended turning into a big tree…

The gods above the starry skies suddenly felt something within the land of the mortals. As one of the chosen ones by Gaia had already damaged the Demon King of Miasma a second time, and as she sent a new member of her group of blessed ones into the ground below, the gods couldn't feel more tired of what was happening, and immediately directed their gazes at Gaia, who was trying to relax after what had happened just some hours ago. However, she could not quite relax anymore, Planta, her blessed one and the one she had her highest hopes suddenly evolved into something not even her had expected.

"W-What is this?!" She asked, looking into a projection of Planta. "S-Shouldn't she had evolved into a Daphnaie?! But she evolved into a Hamadryad…! The first one in over a hundred thousand years…"

The gods were not furious by this, but incredibly surprised and happy. It has been so many years since the last Hamadryad perished, that they had gone long extinct. In fact, normal Dryads were already an incredibly rare race, and with Players being added into the mix, things never truly changed, as nobody ever choose the Dryad race… except for Planta.

"I-Is this the right thing?! Has a Hamadryad been reborn?"

"No, this is a completely new one!"

"How?!"

"Gaia, is this your doing?"

Each God lived within their own personal "rooms" or more like Divine Realms where their elements were channeled the most, and where their existences could be held still. However, they were capable of speaking through telepathy as easy as breathing and drinking water. Gaia, the Goddess that has been watching over Planta and helping her this entire time quickly received many "chat messages" from many Gods at the same time.

She had to quickly calm them down by answering each one of them, as she said that indeed, that was Planta herself. Apparently, she had managed to complete several incredibly hard to pull conditions, one of them was becoming the vessel of the Great Spirit of Nature, Harvest, and Farming, and the other was befriending a large group of Spirits, protecting them, and gaining the trust and blessing of their leader, a High or Divine Spirit, separate from the Great Spirit itself.

Gaia herself never imagined that Planta would ever manage to pull out such complicated requirements, but she did it in a whim, and with amazingly great achievements at that.

"Yes, it was Planta… I suppose I now deserve a good apology, right? From all of you who couldn't trust my intuition."

Gaia cheekily asked for apologies, as many gods quickly recognized she was right this whole time. Back then, they had made a big fuss over Planta "breaking the rules" of the game's settings and other things by abusing loopholes without realizing it. However, now that she had become such an highly sought after entity as a Hamadryad, the gods had to simply sigh and accept their defeat.

"We apologize, Gaia…"

Many gods' voices were heard, as Gaia chuckled a bit childishly at her victory.

"Looks like betting it all on you was not the wrong choice, Planta… I am expectant of what you will do next. Whatever it is, I am sure that it will be something good."
