Chapter 49 p1
◎ No Elf Babies ◎
Yu Chi felt that things were not good, very, very not good!
Under her feet was moist soil. The air in the entire forest was very comfortable. She seemed to have returned to the most suitable environment for growth. All of this was so pleasant, but…
Yu Chi seriously took a step forward. The next second, her whole body swayed, and she fell to the ground with a plop, just like in the era when humans had not yet tamed their limbs—
A sharp pain came from her bottom. Yu Chi’s whole body froze on the spot.
“…”
Damn it, can someone tell me why I’ve turned into an infant?!
The originally blonde, green-eyed elf had suddenly shrunk to the size of 80cm. Her delicate and beautiful face had become chubby, like a soft bun, and a small dimple would appear with a poke.
Her deep and elegant green eyes had also become round, with only a dazed clarity left in them.
Yu Chi sat on the mud and contemplated life, her chubby fingers seriously supporting her chin. This was a rigorous action that had stood the test of human history.
…If her current appearance wasn’t that of a cub.
Yu Chi began to recall how things had come to this.
After fishing last night, she had adjusted the course of her small boat to Sunset Island. To avoid going too fast, she had specially controlled the speed of the small boat to about 5 hours, ensuring that she could arrive near Sunset Island at 6 in the morning.
After doing all this, Yu Chi had entered her dreamland with a beautiful expectation for tomorrow. Who knew that when she woke up, her whole person had suddenly arrived in this strange forest!
She was sure that she did not have the habit of sleepwalking, and she would not use the Island Exploration Card in her dreams, so… who could tell her the reason?!
The reason she was sure that this was Sunset Island was purely because of the lively and vibrant air around her. She had originally thought that the air in the [Two-Sided Mirror] was already very good, but it couldn’t even compare to 1/10 of this forest.
So what should I do now… Yu Chi wrapped her clothes tightly. Because her body had become smaller, the clothes were incomparably large for her and could only hang loosely on her body.
She had initially wanted to weave a suitable set of clothes with vines, but she found that she could not use any of the abilities she had obtained from the system!
Not only the First Aid and Illusion skills on the human panel, but also the Elven Blessing, Light of Healing, and so on on the elf panel.
Fortunately, she could still use the functions given by the system, such as the chat channel and the backpack, which gave her a lot of comfort in her chaotic mood—at least she wouldn’t starve to death in this forest.
Yu Chi sighed like an old man. Her current position was at the edge of the forest. Under normal circumstances, she would be able to see the endless sea when she turned around.
But for some reason, on this island, she could only see a vast white space when she turned around. No matter how she walked, she could not touch the ocean.
I hope there are no demonic beasts here. Yu Chi’s heart was in a knot. She slowly got up from the ground. She was so small that she wasn’t even enough for a mouthful.
Yu Chi mustered up her courage and took a few steps with her short legs. Soon, she froze on the spot. Although she hadn’t seen any demonic beasts, she felt that she might be done for—
“Quick! The intruder is here!”
She heard a sharp and urgent shout. Yu Chi swallowed, her body tense, and stood on the spot without moving.
She didn’t know who was coming, but she had no ability to resist now.
It had only been a few seconds since she had heard the sound. Yu Chi looked up and found that there were more than a dozen strange figures around her.
Pointed ears, absolute beauty… Yu Chi licked her small lips nervously. Hot damn, I’ve encountered the natives.
Not only was Yu Chi nervous, but in fact, Carindor was also very nervous. He stared at the little fellow surrounded by them, his gaze lingering on the little fellow’s green eyes, pointed ears, and golden hair.
There’s no mistake. This intruder is actually an elf cub?
Not to mention the excessively similar appearance to an elf, just the purity of the other party’s bloodline, Carindor believed that he was definitely not mistaken.
How a cub became an intruder was a matter for later. Carindor’s face was full of anger, and his eyes became colder and colder. The cub was not even wearing proper clothes. How was it being taken care of?!
Yu Chi only felt that the way these elves, each with their own exquisite appearance, looked at her was getting more and more strange. She twisted her fingers uneasily.
…I’m a child now. I shouldn’t be treated badly, right? Probably.
The thoughts in her heart became more and more uncertain. Yu Chi was not sure about the style of these elves. What if they treated all intruders the same, very brutally?
Although this intruder currently looked less than 2 years old… Yu Chi cried a river in her heart.
She didn’t know the reason why her body had become smaller. All her thoughts were written on her face. The bun-like face’s small mouth pouted, and the beautiful green eyes quickly filled with tears, hanging on the verge of falling.
Yu Chi was still thinking strongly in her heart, I want to negotiate! I want to have a good talk with these people. I don’t want to suddenly die!
Carindor only felt his breath catch, and he immediately wanted to go forward and take the cub back.
The elven race had always had difficulty in reproduction. In the entire elven kingdom, only one or two elves were born a year, and many times, there were not even a single elf cub.
And the cub period was very fragile, and the adult cycle was very long. It took 300 years from a cub to an adult, which made every cub very precious.
Carindor signaled the others to restrain their aura with his eyes and went forward to get closer. He tried to force a smile on his tense face and said in the gentlest tone, “Let’s take you back first, okay?”
As for where to go back to, it was naturally unnecessary to say. Except for the dark elves, all elves were uniformly supervised and taught during their childhood. Because the number was small, this matter was not difficult.
No matter where this elf came from, since she had already come to their island, she should receive the same education as other elves.
Yu Chi understood the other party’s words. She asked seriously, “Where are you taking me?”
Carindor was stunned. The elf baby in front of him was babbling, and he didn’t know what she wanted to say, but the tears that were about to fall did not fall, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
After thinking for a moment, he took out a handful of nectar from his pocket. This nectar was the favorite little snack of all elf cubs. When they could not eat other food, nectar would accompany them through their entire cub life.
Of course, some adults also could not get rid of their love for nectar, such as Carindor, who could take out nectar at any time.
Yu Chi’s gaze was immediately attracted. The nectar was held in a large leaf, and a sweet fragrance came from it. Saliva unconsciously secreted from the corner of her mouth, but she obviously did not notice her own state, her eyes staring straight.
The little elf baby tried hard to swallow, feeling that it was very tempting. However, a trace of reason was still maintained in Yu Chi’s mind. The flower fairy will definitely like this, she thought.
The smile on Carindor’s face deepened. He handed the nectar he had worked so hard to get to the elf baby in front of him and continued to say in a coaxing tone, “Come back with us, okay?”
The other elves also looked at this scene nervously. They were the guards of the forest border and had rushed over immediately after sensing an intruder.
It could be those disgusting contaminated creatures, or it could be the destructive dark elves, but they had not expected it to be an elf cub.
This made them happy and angry. The wandering of an elf cub meant that she might have been abandoned before.
Yu Chi accepted the nectar, not because the fragrance of the nectar was too tempting… she just felt that these elves were very friendly to her.
Although her question just now had not been answered by the other party, which made her a little hesitant. But she had no combat power now, so it was better to be obedient.
The little elf nodded obediently.
Carindor breathed a sigh of relief and directly picked up the elf.
“Ferwyn and Valira will return to the royal court with me. The others will continue to guard!”
The two elves whose names were called showed excitement in their eyes and immediately stood out and answered.
“Where are you taking me?” Yu Chi asked again.
After being held in his arms, she felt the elves’ indulgent attitude towards her, which made her unable to help but ask again. However, her question only received a comforting smile.
Yu Chi was very helpless, but she still insisted on asking, “Is this the Elven Kingdom? Is this whole place where the elves live?”
She wondered if it was because she was a cub that the few of them did not take her words seriously, which made her very troubled. After saying a few words, she silently stopped.
Seeing that the elf baby was no longer babbling, Carindor raised the nectar. “Are you hungry?”
Yu Chi was not hungry, but she followed the other party’s hand and lowered her head to drink a mouthful of nectar.
Wonderful!
This is too delicious. Her eyes lit up, and she lowered her head and drank two more mouthfuls.
The three of them smiled and looked at the elf baby.
