Chapter 013 The Elf King's Gift
The seed left the sparrow's mouth and did not fall directly to the ground, but floated in the air.
The blond man moved his fingers slightly, and four water droplets jumped out of the lake, floated upwards, quickly "cleaned" the seeds, and then fell back.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp~!" The sparrow protested at the top of its voice.
When it pecked the seed into its mouth, it specially wrapped it with isolation magic so that it did not come into contact with saliva. It was clean and hygienic, but the king actually disliked it.
Too much!
The blond man spread his hands, and seeds as big as sesame seeds fell into his palms, like four red moles.
The sparrow stared at the four little red dots in his hand with great envy.
This is a rare red crystal flower seed, which can not only cure all kinds of poisons, but also increase the level of magic power.
As an eighth-level magical beast, it has been stuck at a bottleneck for a hundred years. If it swallows four red crystal flower seeds, breaking through to the ninth level is just around the corner.
The red crystal flower only grows in the gestation room of the Fairy Forest. It blooms once every ten years. When the little fairy is born, its seeds are also mature.
Someone once buried red crystal flower seeds in the soil outside the incubation room, but none of them sprouted. They either rotted or were eaten by low-level organisms in the soil.
Why can’t red crystal flowers be grown outside?
It is said that the blessing of the God of Light is missing.
While the little goblin is gestating in the flower bed, the elves who take care of it have to consume a lot of mana every day to chant ancient poems praising the God of Light.
The God of Light heard the poem and blessed the fairy. Light streamed into the skylight, illuminating all the creatures in the nursery room. The red crystal flower could only bloom and bear fruit if it was touched by the fairy's light.
The red crystal flowers transplanted to the outside world, without the blessing of the God of Light, of course withered.
In short, the plant seeds in the nursery of the Fairy Forest are rare treasures that can only be found by chance.
Today it helped the Elf King deliver a letter to the fairy cubs, and luckily got four red crystal flower seeds.
When the goblin cub placed the bright red seeds on the windowsill, it almost couldn't help but swallow them in one gulp.
Fortunately, the remaining sanity suppressed the desire and brought the seeds to the Elf King first.
Because it knew that the king standing by the lake must have watched through the water mirror as it delivered the letter to the cub.
So, as soon as it delivered the letter, the king asked it for a "return gift".
The sparrow squatted on the fingertips of the Elf King, feeling itchy and its bean-like eyes rolled around cunningly, hoping that the Elf King would give it the seeds as a reward.
The Elf King closed his fingers and grasped the seed.
The sparrow chirped, feeling greatly shocked, and curled up dejectedly into a ball of fur.
The Elf King placed the fur ball on a nearby branch and nodded his head with a smile. "I have a use for these seeds, so I can't give them to you."
"Chirp!" The sparrow flapped its wings reluctantly.
The Elf King ignored it, put the seeds in a small transparent bottle, and put it into the space storage ring.
The sparrow was completely disappointed and lay on the branch like a bird cake.
Just when it was heartbroken, it suddenly smelled a delicious scent. The little hair on its head stood up, and the whole bird quickly changed from a pancake shape back to a ball.
"Chiu?"
A round blue ball floated in the air, and its pupils suddenly dilated.
It's a Warcraft crystal!
The sparrow was very excited. It spread its wings and jumped around on the branches, chirping at the Elf King.
Is it a reward? Is it a reward?
The elf nodded, her long golden hair flowing behind her, rippling gently. "Ninth-level Magical Beast Crystal, want it?"
“Chirp, chirp, chirp!”
Yes, yes, yes!
Don't be a stupid bird!
When the Elf King takes action, it must be of the highest quality.
The sparrow held the crystal in its mouth, fearing that the Elf King would change his mind if it was slow, so it spread its wings and flew upwards. Halfway through its flight, it transformed into a giant falcon, rushing into the sky like lightning and disappearing without a trace in an instant.
The Elf King looked up at the direction where the falcon was flying away, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and turned to leave the lake.
“Knock knock knock—”
The crisp sound of hooves approached from afar, and soon a pure white unicorn emerged from the woods. Its spiral horn gleamed in the sunlight, its mane and tail flowed gracefully, and its limbs were slender and powerful. It walked gracefully before the Elf King and bowed its head meekly.
The elf touched the unicorn, turned over and sat on its back, its silky golden hair and exquisite cloak drawing a beautiful arc in the air.
The unicorn raised its front hooves, took small steps, and carried the handsome Elf King on its back, going deep into the dense forest.
Every once in a while, the elves would take turns patrolling the Fairy Forest to drive away poachers and outsiders who had strayed into the forest.
There is no particularly clear hierarchy among elves. Even the Elf King, Fries, has to participate in patrol work.
***
In the bright and clean classroom, twenty-five fairy cubs sat in a row, listening attentively to Elsa's speech.
"From today on, we will officially start learning. Besides me and Sit, there will be other teachers teaching you together."
"Five days of classes, two days of rest."
"Every morning, Sif will wake you up instead of me."
Elsa raised her hand and pointed to the window, only to see a golden bird squatting outside that was much larger than the fairy cubs.
It was none other than Sif, a yellow bird that only lived in the Fairy Forest. It had a clear and resonant voice and was an intelligent seventh-level magical beast.
The cubs had already seen the bird outside the window and glanced at it from time to time.
Knowing that it would wake him up instead of Elsa, the cub sitting in the front row whispered, "Will it eat goblins?"
"No." Aisha reached out and ruffled the cub's soft hair. "Sif is our friend. She only eats grains and pests, not goblins."
"Oh." The cub nodded, relieved.
Shu Li sat in the back row and drew a cartoon bird on a small notebook with a feather pen, and wrote a note next to it: Xifu - Alarm Clock.
Although there are no electronic alarm clocks in the Fairy Forest, there are biological alarm clocks.
Good.
Solved a bird's job problem.
but--
Why does a bird need to work?
Shu Li put down his quill, held his chin with his hand, looked at the napping yellow bird outside, and fell into deep thought.
Aisha continued to explain in detail about going to school in the future, such as not being late, not leaving early, and having to complete the homework assigned by teachers in each subject on time.
Elf cubs are different from human children. They develop intelligence early and grow fast. Three-year-old cubs can fluently listen to, speak, and write Elvish, play the harp, sing poems, and identify hundreds of herbs.
Therefore, the older fairies are becoming increasingly strict in teaching the younger ones, and will impose corresponding punishments if they fail to complete the homework assigned by school.
The cubs were stunned when they heard this.
The fat boy, Budno, raised his hand. "Punishment...what's the punishment? Not being allowed to eat?"
But don’t let it be this!
Otherwise he would...would...starve!
Budno:o(┳ _ ┳)o
He couldn't imagine how miserable he would be without sweet nectar and fresh fruits to eat.
Seeing that the little fat boy was about to burst into tears, Aisha quickly coaxed him, "I won't stop you from eating."
"Oh——" Budno's tears were instantly stopped.
No punishment for eating? That's fine!
Elsa couldn't help laughing.
What a greedy little guy.
"Elsa, you haven't told me what the punishment is?" asked the red-haired Decio.
"Every teacher has different punishments. For example, Sit usually makes you copy and recite poems." Aisha blinked. "As for me, I'll make you mop the floor."
White-haired Angel also raised his hand: "I, I don't know how to mop the floor."
Aisha smiled: "If you don't know, just learn."
In the days to come, she will teach the cubs to do various tasks.
Fairies don't keep idlers, and every cub must learn to be self-reliant.
Shu Li wrote down Aisha's words and reminded herself to study hard, improve every day, and avoid making mistakes.
There are no relatives here who love and tolerate him. The adult goblins treat all the cubs equally and do not favor any one of them.
If the cub makes a mistake, it must bear the consequences.
After finishing the recording, Shu Li drew three dots on the blank space of the paper with a feather pen.
In anime, heroes who enter another world are all incredibly powerful, incredibly lucky, full of romantic interests, and possess incredible cheats. But why is it that when it comes to him, he has nothing? He doesn't even speak the language and has to learn it all from scratch.
He really has it difficult!
At the end of the first class, Shu Li wrote five pages of notes.
Finally, it was break time. He spread his wings and flew to the podium. He took out a letter from the pouch at his waist and looked at Elsa for help. "Help, help me."
He is now illiterate and cannot understand the Elvish language.
Elsa took the letter suspiciously. When she saw the golden wax seal on the letter, she exclaimed in surprise, "This is... a letter from the Elf King!"
"What?" Shu Li opened his eyes wide in confusion.
Did Elsa just mention the "Elf King"? Did he hear it wrongly?
"You heard correctly. This is indeed a letter from the Elf King." Elsa saw his confusion and pointed at the wax seal. "This is the Elf King's unique seal."
After receiving a positive answer, Shu Li was puzzled: "Why?"
Why did the Elf King send a fat chick to deliver a letter to him so early in the morning?
Elsa was also curious.
No fairy cub that had just left the gestation room had ever received a letter from the Elf King.
Sperian is indeed unique.
"Do you want me to open it for you?" she asked gently.
"Yeah." Shu Li nodded repeatedly.
When the other cubs learned that Sperion had received a letter from the Elf King, they all gathered around curiously.
Without damaging the wax seal, Elsa carefully opened the envelope and took out a card and an exquisite ring.
Seeing the beautiful elven words on the card, even though Elsa had been a fairy godmother for many years, she couldn't help but exclaim: "Oh, by the God of Light, you are such a lucky little fairy."
"What?" Shu Li scratched his ear anxiously. What on earth was written on the card that made Elsa so excited?
Aisha pointed to the elven words on the card and read them slowly to him: "Sperien, my lovely little disciple, I wish you a happy hundredth day, and may the God of Light be with you! - Fres Estel."
Afraid that the little one might not understand, Elsa repeated it three times.
Shu Li stared blankly at the sloppy handwriting on the card, which looked like a doctor's medical record, and countless small question marks popped up in his head.
Pointing to the tip of his nose, he asked Aisha, "Me, a disciple?"
He and the Elf King only met once, so how did they become master and disciple?
Is there something wrong?
Also, twenty-five goblin cubs were born at the same time, one hundred days apart. Why did the Elf King only give him a gift?
It's not good to treat it this way, right?
Easy to be isolated.
Shu Li quickly observed the other young goblins and found their eyes clear and pure, filled with curiosity and admiration, without a trace of jealousy. Even Budno, who constantly contradicted him, showed no signs of mental imbalance. His eyes, narrowed by fatness, sparkled.
Elsa looked at the bewildered cub with emotion, reaching out her finger to gently touch the flower crown on his head. She explained slowly, "For ten thousand years, only three people in the entire continent have been blessed by the Elf King: the current Mage Saint Danlov, the elven warrior Ilio, known as the God of War, and the young Dragon King Hamon. They were all outstanding disciples of the King, and after enduring rigorous trials, they successfully graduated and achieved great success. And you are the fourth person to be blessed by the King."
Shu Li listened carefully to her long string of sentences, trying hard to understand.
In other words, those who are blessed by the Elf King are equivalent to his disciples, and they can become masters after learning the skills well.
The Elf King calls him "my little disciple". Does this mean that he will become a big man like the three "senior brothers" before him in the future?
Brave!
I am indeed the chosen hero!
Shu Li clenched his fists excitedly.
Sure enough, the time-traveling god did not abandon him and gave him a super powerful plug-in on the first day!
I have been unlucky so many times, but now I finally get lucky!
Not only did he receive the Elf King's blessing, but he also received his gifts.
Speaking of gifts, Shu Li held the exquisite ring in her hand, full of doubts.
Rings are something with special meanings. Can they be given away casually in another world?
Seeing the little cub staring at the ring in a daze, Aisha smiled and said, "This is a space storage ring."
"Space... storage ring?"
Shu Li opened his eyes wide in shock.
