“Papa I’m done they’ll be coming out now!” yelled Nova
“Okay here I come.” said Zero as he stood up and walked to where Nova was standing.
The world tree opened up and the 113 women emerged changed for the better in Zero’s opinion. 2 types of creatures had entered the tree but 3 types emerged from with the tree. Zero appraised them and saw that Nova had created 3 races 31 Hamadryads, 40 Anthousai, and 42 Auloniad.
The Hamadryads looked like dark green-eyed and olive green-skinned beautiful women clothed in short dresses made of leaves. Their arms and legs had marks that looked like root-like veins of a small plant. Their hair color matched that of their eye color. As they walked grass grew underneath their feet and some would turn into trees before returning to their human form.
The Anthousai looked like light purple-haired beautiful human women. They had heterochromatic eyes with a majority of them having one crystal pink eye, clothed in pink mid-length dresses shaped, and wore a flower crown. Their arms and legs had had flower tattoos of many different types of flowers. They had a sweet fragrance of nectar mixed with flowers and flowers bloomed wherever they stepped.
The Auloniad looked like a beautiful human woman made of wood. Although their skin was made of wood it was not stiff and behaved exactly like normal skin. They had dark green eyes, left green hair, and were clothed in long dresses with a slit at the bottom. The top part of the dress was made of leaves and the bottom part with the slit was made of plant vines with beautiful pink and purple flowers growing on it.

“Well, they do look more like dryads now. So what did you change?” asked Zero although he could see their stats and had figured out most of the changes already. He didn’t want to take away the joy Nova would get from explaining what she had done.
“Well, first Nova broke them into pieces to get why they were made like that. After Nova got why she tried her best to use what was there to make something more like her. I mixed everything together and came up with those.” answered a proud Nova
“Well you did a very good job they look like nymphs now instead of monsters.” said Zero as he patted her on the head.
“What’s a nymph?” asked a confused Nova
“A nymph is a female nature spirit who lives in nature protecting their element. Those 3 are land nymphs so they will live and protect the forest.” explained Zero who was surprised that she managed to create them without understanding what they were. It was most likely due to her horticulture intuition skill which lets her understand everything related to nature and plants.
“So are there nymphs for the water and sky?” asked an excited Nova
“Yes and there are even nymphs for the stars and many other places.” said Zero
“Wow let go make one now.” yelled an excited Nova
“Well, why don’t we finish taking care of them first” said Zero as he pointed towards the nymphs.
“What do we need to do?” asked a confused Nova
“Well what are you going to do with them?” asked Zero
“What am I going to do?” asked Nova
“Well you made them so you have to teach them what to do with their lives.” explained Zero
“Well papa made me so what do you want me to do?” asked Nova
“I want you to grow up happy and become a powerful nature goddess.” explained Zero
“Okay then I want them to be happy too.” said Nova smiling
“Okay then ask them what will make them happy.” said Zero
Nova walked up to the nymphs and asked them what they want to do and no response came. Zero who was looking at the situation realized that the nymphs didn’t know how to talk yet.
“They want to live here and not go back to the castle.” explained Nova after she returned
Zero remembered that Nova can communicate with plants so whether they could speak or not didn’t affect her ability to communicate with them. While this was good Zero still need them to learn to speak so he asked Nova to call over one of the nymphs. An Auloniad walked towards them and kneeled in front of them. Zero placed his hand on her wooden forehead and was surprised to learn that it didn’t have a wooden texture but was rather like wood-colored skin.
Zero then activated his mental manipulation skill and implanted the knowledge of speaking English and Japanese the 2 languages he knew right now along with general knowledge. He also imparted knowledge about what the planet looked like in case they wished to travel and to never harm Nova’s world tree.
“Do you understand what I’m saying?” asked Zero
“Y... e... s.” responded the Auloniad
“That’s good I want you to be in charge of all the nymphs and take care of them.” said Zero
“W...h...y... me?” asked the Auloniad
“Because Nova chose you.” responded an eager Nova
“Yeah she chose you.” answered Zero as he pointed towards Nova
“I… und…er...stand.” responded the Auloniad
“Why don’t you name her Nova.” said Zero
“Nova doesn’t know papa should do it.” said Nova
“It’s okay Nova should be the one to do it. That would make her happier.” explained Zero
“Okay then how about Iris.” said Nova as she looked at the flowers on the auloniad’s dress.
“My.. na...me... Iris?” asked the Auloniad
“Yes.” said Nova with a smile
Zero then proceeded to use his mental manipulation to impart only the ability to speak to the other nymphs. He didn’t impart any knowledge apart from the language so that the other nymphs would need to consult Iris on many things cementing her role as leader of the nymphs.
After imparting the knowledge to the nymphs Zero suddenly felt an enormous amount of mana coming from the coliseum. When he turned to face it he notices a dark crimson beam of light and a black beam shoot into the sky. It seemed that Yoko and Valna had completed their transformation and had awaked.
Zero had Nova order the nymphs to not approach the coliseum and to go find a place to live. He then picked her up and took to the skies flying toward the coliseum.
Race Explanation:
Hamadryads: Hamadryads are dryads who have the deepest connection with the forest and form a life-long mental bond with a given tree. As in the case of normal dryads and nymphs they can reproduce asexually, their descendants will be female in this case. They are capable of mating with other races giving birth to hybrids that take the superior trait from both parents. As the other dryads, hamadryads are usually short and slender. Their skin tones may take tints of olive, chestnut, green, or red but sometimes it appears to be green. While similar to humans, hamadryads and their descendants are easily able to recognize others of their race. They have a love for the trees, forest, and music and have learned to master the ability to shape trees to their will while not harming the tree itself.
Anthousai: A nymph bound to the material plane similar to dryads but unlike them, however, they bind themselves to a type of flower, most commonly the hyacinth rather than a tree. As with dryads who die when their tree dies, so too do the anthousai when their flower completely dies. However, these flowers are imbued with their magic to be resistant to weather, seasons, and prying creatures. They can also survive long periods without being watered or absorbing sunlight. Not to mention they come back year after year, long past their normal lifespan. Although they are the same size and structure as most humanoids, anthousai have many characteristics that make them easy to spot: First of all, they have a very powerful smell. Rose, jasmine, lily, gardenia... Each anthousai has a personal perfume, either smelling like a flower or mixing them in impressive combinations. Each smell is completely personalized and they are extremely proud of it. It has many uses, though it is used to make everyone around the anthousai comfortable and/or to seduce them. Their skin has the same texture as a petal and can varies color to color depending on the flower that they decided to bind themselves to. Another thing that differentiates them is the eyes tend to be heterochromatic It is not uncommon for their irises to be two contradicting colors, or even a kaleidoscope of up to five colors at once. They use clothes made by themselves, mostly made out of petals or plants, that while in contact with the anthousai will be forever green, but that once they are removed quickly perish.
Auloniad: The Aulonaid nymphs are land nymphs who have a deep connection with the very earth itself. They have skin that looks like wood, rocks, and plants but the same texture as human skin. Being bound to the very earth itself they are impossible to kill when standing on the ground. Like all other nymphs, they are capable of mating with other races giving birth to hybrids that take the superior trait from both parents. They have a love for the trees and nature trying to live in peace with Mother Nature and animals. Due to their special connection to the earth, they are able to teleport through the earth anywhere with the natural ground but are unable to enter any metal or artificial facilities.
