Fang Yuan opened his eyes, looked around, then closed them again, lay back on the bed, and began to complain to the system.

"System, why didn't you warn me earlier?"

The system also knows the approximate time.

The system felt wronged. It wasn't the Grim Reaper, so how could it determine when the host would run out of breath?

"You should at least have agreed beforehand! I only installed a small amount of stuff; I haven't installed most of it yet!"

Fang Yuan also wanted to cry; this system was really too much of a rip-off for its host.

[Host, I suggest you take a look at your own condition first.]

The system notified me.

"What? What's the problem this time?"

She glanced at the rather luxurious room, which was nicely decorated.

Is it possible that someone is about to attack?

[Does the host accept the memories?]

“I accept!” Fang Yuan replied.

Now is not the time for her to complain about the system.

As a memory flooded his mind, Fang Yuan was stunned.

This is actually a world where elves exist.

That seems a bit amazing!

However, thinking about the original owner's identity, she felt a bit overwhelmed.

"System, why am I the illegitimate daughter of a minor baron this time? And this baron father is dead?"

Children born from extramarital affairs are cannon fodder in any world.

Why was she given this identity?

[The host's identity was not assigned by the system, and your cheat ability in this life was given to you by your deceased father.]

"Yes! First, acknowledge my golden finger as your master."

For now, let's ignore everything else and focus on establishing a connection with the cheat system.

Fang Yuan took out a jade bracelet with carved patterns and dripped blood to bind it to him.

They entered the space with practiced ease.

This is a space where all kinds of trees grow.

In the middle of the forest stands a huge tree that resembles a giant umbrella.

The trunk is so thick that it would take a dozen or twenty people to encircle it, and the surrounding branches and leaves are lush, covering a huge area.

The trees had exceptionally dense and lush foliage, giving them a vibrant and lively feel.

"Is this the legendary Tree of Life?" Fang Yuan asked the system in surprise.

The leaf was so big that it looked like a giant when she stood under it; it took up most of the space.

Or perhaps it should be said that this space exists because of this tree.

Yes, this tree is the core of this space.

"So the little bit of space that the original female lead opened wasn't actually opened, was it?" Fang Yuan replied.

Thinking back to the memory of the female protagonist opening her space, only to find a patch of grass about twenty square meters in size, she found it somewhat amusing.

Yes, this space can only be fully opened by those with specific bloodlines.

"Wait a minute? Isn't that woman the original owner's half-sister? This belongs to the original owner's father, so she should be able to open it, right?"

Her father's baroness had a daughter who was already eighteen years old.

In her past life, she was the one who obtained and opened that space.

Because the child that lady bore was not your father's; she was of even lower birth than you, the child of the baroness and a servant in the household.

Fang Yuan was speechless.

"How did you know?" Fang Yuan asked bluntly.

"[...in the plot]," the system replied somewhat guiltily.

"This social circle is really messed up, but my father's things ended up benefiting those two sluts!" Fang Yuan gritted his teeth.

Her father probably never knew until his death that the daughter his wife had conceived through adultery wasn't his.

The key point is that these two guys are also going to find someone to kill their two own children. They're really cutting the weeds and eliminating the roots!

Don't worry, they didn't form a contract with the elves and can't inherit your father's fiefdom; they can only inherit the limited property he left behind.

"If you put it that way, it does seem to be true. Then I'm relieved!" Fang Yuan smiled.

This world is truly amazing.

Because of the legendary elves.

The country she lived in was called the Elf Empire.

It is said to be a country established by the union of a great elf and a human.

The little elves born from nature will only form contracts with humans who have elf blood.

And grant that person the same life and the abilities that may arise.

In the entire Elf Empire, only those who can form a contract with elves can become nobles.

Otherwise, they would only be able to become commoners or slaves.

Those who can form a pact with an elf can directly rise from commoner or slave to become a nobleman.

Of course, in this situation, the promotion to nobility would generally only be to the lowest rank of lord, without any fiefdom.

But you will acquire some property, such as a manor or a ranch.

However, this depends on whether the nobleman who bestows the title upon you is wealthy and whether he thinks highly of you.

Conversely, those who cannot form a pact with elves, even if they were once the children of nobles, cannot inherit the fiefdoms left by their ancestors.

Therefore, her father's wife and daughter wanted to inherit the baron's castle and fiefdom, so they had to contract with the elf.

Unfortunately, neither of them managed to form a contract with a spirit.

They could only leave her father's castle three months after his death.

"So, I have to contract a Pokémon within three months, no, I have to contract one within two months?"

She can only apply to become a lord after she makes a contract with the fairy.

After becoming a lord, you can recruit several knights.

They stopped the bandits the woman sent to kill them.

【Yes!】

For Fang Yuan, who possesses an affinity for plants, forming a contract with a spirit is very simple.

Even if she doesn't have the legendary noble elven bloodline, it's fine.

"I understand." Fang Yuan nodded.

To save her life, she would definitely form a contract with a spirit.

After all, she had contracted with quite a few spirit beasts in her previous life, so she was familiar with this kind of thing.

[A person here can only have a maximum of three Pokémon at a time. Please be aware, host.]

Don't let too many contracts expose the truth later.

"I see."

As Fang Yuan answered, he circled the Tree of Life, not really taking the matter to heart.

When they turned in another direction, they found a small treehouse under the shade of a tree.

"Huh? There's a house too?"

She went inside with a hint of surprise.

Opening the door of the wooden house, you'll find that the interior has two floors, and neither is small.

Is this a folded space?

As expected of a world with magic.

Even the wooden cabin that comes with the space is different.

Fang Yuan walked around inside and found that in addition to the living room, kitchen, bedroom, and storage room, there was also a laboratory of more than 20 square meters.

There is a row of wooden tables on the left, right, and in the middle of the laboratory.

On a table were a row of delicate little wooden bowls and a long-necked jade bottle filled with liquid.

The middle row of tables is a row of empty test tubes.

On the last row of tables was a row of delicate little baskets, each about the size of a palm.

"System, do you know what these are for?"

For matters concerning space, if you have any questions, ask the system.

The bowl is made from a branch of the Tree of Life, and the water in the bottle is dew from the Tree of Life.

"Is this because of the effect of the Evolution Spirit Fruit?" Fang Yuan asked tentatively.

The little elves are born naturally, and at first, a small round ball will appear on the corresponding plant, which everyone calls the elf fruit.

The fairy fruit will grow into a little fairy after a month.

The little elves have a faint glow on them after they are born.

Over the years, people have determined their abilities and ranks based on their radiance.

The worst are the little sprites with the color of copper coins; they not only have short lifespans, but also low ability to promote plant growth.

The spirits radiating bronze light can only live for twenty years and can only double the growth and harvest of plants.

The silvery spirit can live for fifty years and can triple the number of plants.

The golden-glowing spirit can live for a hundred years and can quadruple the number of plants.

The most powerful is the little sprite with seven-colored light, which can live for two hundred years and can increase the number of plants fivefold.

If a Pokémon develops well while holding a Pokémon Fruit, it can hatch into a higher-level Pokémon.

Therefore, there are specialized elf hatchers in this world.

"Great! Can I also impersonate an elf hatcher?"

Fang Yuan felt that he had found a good starting point.

[Yes, good luck, host!]

Fang Yuan left the space in a good mood, then quickly put on a pink dress and got out of bed.

Fortunately, this world is similar to the clothing style of the late 19th century in the West, so under normal circumstances, you don't need to wear a cinched waist and an inner lining to choke someone.

"Anna~ Has Mrs. Morrie made breakfast?"

Fang Yuan stepped out of the bedroom and called downstairs to the only two maids in the manor.

The other maid was Mrs. Morrie, the cook.

"It's all ready, dear Miss. Should I go and wake the young master?"

Anna placed a stack of bread on the dining table, turned to Fang Yuan, and asked.

"No need, I'll go call him." Fang Yuan turned and walked into Fang Ping'an's room.

The main house of the manor has only two floors. The first floor has a hall, dining room, kitchen, and storage room, while the second floor is where she, Fang Ping'an, and their study are located.

The two maids, along with two male servants, lived in a bungalow not far behind the manor.

By the way, Fang Ping'an and Fang Yuan are her mother's surnames.

Her baron father's name was Hines Wheatfield.

That's right, her father's family name is Wheat Field.

Because her grandfather made his fortune using wheat spirits.

It's a pity that it only lasted for two generations; by his father's time, the lineage had ended.

Anyway, she's now the daughter of a mistress, and she's not named after her father.

After she becomes a noblewoman, she plans to take the surname Fang and the given name Yuan.

I don't want to inherit that wheat field's surname.

I don't want to inherit that wheat field's surname.

"Ping An, wake up."

Fang Yuan opened Fang Ping'an's door and called out to the small figure on the bed.

Fang Ping'an is only five years old.

Five years ago, his mother died in childbirth.

Because they are just merchants, they are not qualified to buy potions.

Originally, Fang's grandfather wanted to ask her father, Hines, for a magic potion to save people, but he was thwarted by his wife's interference.

In the end, all I could do was watch Fang's mother pass away.

Although the grandfather was saddened by his daughter's passing, he still gave the child a name with a good meaning.

Peace, I hope he lives a peaceful life.

Of course, if it weren't for the former baroness who was about to be driven away, they might have really lived peacefully ever after.

Unfortunately, such a person exists.

After Fang Waigong went to do business in other territories, he never returned.

In her previous life, the original owner of the body and her brother were also killed by someone hired by that vicious first wife.
