As we celebrated the festivities and gorged on food while talking and laughing with everybody, I heard the annoying voice of two ear talkers.

"Hey, hey, you're forgetting about the big one! I am literally the protagonist here, why am I not getting praised? Without me you wouldn't had accomplished half the stuff you did, Planta! Don't get cocky, my vessel!"

A floating carrot appeared besides me, the majestic appearance she had before was nowhere to be seen. It seemed that the floating carrot was her usual energy-saving form and when she unleashed her beautiful form back then, it was most likely by spending a lot of spiritual essence.

"I am not saying I am jealous or something but you've been talking to me way less lately" Said the Guide Spirit. "I feel a bit left out you know?"

"Uuuggh Okay, okay!" I sighed. "Great Spirit, become visible so you can get praised!"

"Got it!"

FLASH!

A giant floating carrot suddenly spawned in the middle of the banquet, everybody panicked as expected.

"T-That's a carrot?"

"Waaah!"

"Wait! Is that a monster by any chance?"

"No idiot, that's a spirit!"

"Eh? A spirit?!"

The fairies all around were panicking a lot, but they quickly calmed down after seeing that the creature was indeed a harmless spirit, a Great Spirit at that! Titania quickly told them all she was the Great Spirit of Nature, Harvest, and Farming, and all fairies suddenly panicked again but out of shock.

"T-The Great Spirit?!"

"I see, so this is why Planta is so incredible, she was chosen!"

"She is indeed a chosen hero!"

"Amazing Aren't Great Spirits like Gods?"

"Yeah This is impressive."

Titania nodded as she heard everyone praising the Great Spirit. The egocentric carrot got happy and the Queen gave me thumbs up. It seems that the plan was well done.

"Ancient Spirits fell in the Ancient Time, but it seems that now after the Rehashing, they might begin to revive one after the other, seeking their new Vessels. The Great Spirit of Harvest might not be the last Great Spirit to awaken and revive completely." Said Titania. "However, that Planta was the first one means a lot, it means she has incredible potential and the one that brought the attention of a god-like entity, even if weakened after reviving, the Great Spirit might bring us great prosperity from now on! Everyone, let's do a toas for the Great Spirit!"

"For the Great Spirit!" All fairies said, raising a small cup of wine.

"Ohohoho! Yes, thanks to me!" Laughed the floating carrot. Everyone found her cute so they forgave her strange personality. And then, she later on began eating offerings given to her, mostly fruits which she could apparently eat.

However, although that problem was resolved, there was another little problem

"Okay, so you want to be given more attention? Since when you became a little kid, guide spirit?" I sighed, feeling slightly disappointed.

"I-It is nothing like that, I was just saying" The Guide Spirit acted as if he didn't really meant it.

It might be a bit cruel to say this, but isn't he just a helper? Does he expect to join in our adventurers more or something? I doubt he can actually fight and all of that Maybe he can offer scouting ability? After all he can detect things, see through objects, fly around and all of that. That alone is useful, if he really wants to become someone praised by the rest and given more of my attention.

"Well, from now on your role as a helper will level up." I said.

"Level Up?" He wondered.

"Yeah, you're also going to be in charge of scouting areas, detecting monsters, see through objects, inspect other people and more. How about that? If you become incredibly indispensable for our adventurers, I'll surely talk to you more as a result." I said.

"I-I don't want to talk more or something!" The Guide Spirit said shyly. "But I guess that does sound pretty good, there is no protocol saying I can't do that. In fact, it might be a loophole, but I'll let it slide instead of reporting it"

"Ahaha, so you really want to feel like a party member, don't you?" I sighed.

"T-That's not it!"

The Guide Spirit was there for me since the beginning of the game, he helps me around whenever I am curious about something. But as my group of friends grew, I didn't had much time to talk to him and ask him about stuff. Well, that has changed now as he will take a more active role in things he didn't completely considered before, but that had done before anyways as a way to "guide" me.

"Just take it as if you're just doing your job of guiding me." I said with a smile.

"Hmph I guess that sounds just fine." He said while considering many things.

Like that, we continued the feast while the Guide Spirit seemed to have made himself visible somehow, and was talking around with the Spirits, saying that he was also a Spirit that helped me, and earned some reputation right away I guess he really just wanted to interact more.

At the end of the day even the Helpers such as Guides are NPC with their own minds and personalities, perhaps they were made not to interact much with the world and only aid the player, but as they develop more and more, they end up becoming their own persons.

It is kind of frightening to think there is one for each Player, it makes me feel a bit of pity. But I heard that Achlys had yet to even activate hers, and Titan did so, but had left him inside his inventory I guess I cannot really force them to treat theirs like I do with mine. At the end, even if things are very realistic, this is a game so everyone can play it however they want, I suppose.

However, as we were enjoying the drinks and food while talking about pastries with Titania and how to prepare a perfect chiffon cake, the Guide suddenly alerted me of something.

"P-Planta, this is bad!" He cried, flying to my side.

"Eh? What's wrong?" I asked.

"Players! There are four players coming to the Fairy Kingdom, I can sense them from afar!" Said the Guide.

"Eh? Four of them?!" I asked in disbelief.

Who could these mysterious people even be?
