Chapter 033 Live Broadcast Magic
After seeing off the academic master Jingjing, Shu Li felt no sleep at all.
After being poisoned by the two children's songs, the enchanting lyrics kept echoing in his ears.
The nursery rhymes are so awesome, so catchy, and I remember them in no time.
This was the first time Shu Li realized how good her memory was.
Unable to fall asleep, he sat down at the table and took out his magic notebook.
These past few days I either studied too late or had an accident and ended up stranded in the forest, so I had no time to write in my diary.
Shu Li held a feather pen and used neat Chinese characters to record recent events, stroke by stroke.
"...Dad, don't worry. I'm getting better and better at learning Elvish. Even Jingjing, the top student, praised my lively storytelling. Oh, by the way, Jingjing is Kumandi, my private tutor, as mentioned in the last diary entry. He's amazing. I've been studying with him these days, and my spoken English has improved by leaps and bounds."
"Mom, Mr. Orochi gave me a lot of beautiful gems. I will keep them well and give them all to you to make jewelry when I return."
"Brother, I'll always remember what you said: never stand still. Learn to take the initiative and act according to circumstances."
"Brother, strength is indeed important. After this incident, I realized that it's very dangerous out there. Without strength, I can't even take a single step. I decided to train to the maximum level in the Novice Village. Once I'm strong enough, I'll go out and adventure again."
"Third brother, the magic snake looks super cool. I'll make a magic snake figurine for you when I have time."
"Love your Shu Li (love love love love love love)."
After writing the conclusion, Shu Li read it again to make sure there were no omissions, closed the notebook, and put it back into the storage ring.
After yawning, he got up, washed up and went to bed.
He did not sleep well that night. In his dream, a group of little monsters kept chasing him and singing nursery rhymes.
In the morning, Shu Li woke up to the sound of Sif's bird.
So tired, so sleepy——
He sat up in pain and rubbed his temples vigorously, feeling dazed.
It’s all because of my curiosity. I heard a nursery rhyme that made my body tremble before going to bed, and even the evil sound penetrated my brain in my dreams.
He scratched his messy hair and dragged his tired body out of bed. Just as he stepped on the carpet, he suddenly remembered something and almost missed a step and sat back on the bed.
etc!
Sit assigned Kumandi the homework of writing nursery rhymes and poems. What about the other young fairies? Do they have homework too?
Could it be that after today, children's songs related to him will be everywhere?
Shu Li's eyes were dull and she was reluctant to go out from the bottom of her heart.
Woo woo woo——
Is he going to face social death for the third time?
Outside the window, Sif's cries grew louder and louder, urging the cubs to get up quickly or they would be late for school.
Shu Li had to get up again and stagger into the bathroom to wash up.
Today, the cubs discovered that Sperian was wearing a hat.
"Wow, what a beautiful hat." Angel circled around Shu Li.
"Hey, hey, hey, Sperian, where did you buy your hat?" Budno reached out and pinched the large brim and pointed top of the hat. "It's very interesting."
"Is it sold in the commercial street? I want to buy some too!" Disio was eager to try. Whatever the boss had, he had to have too.
Shu Li straightened the hat that was tilted by Budno, pressed down the brim, and perfectly covered the upper half of his face.
"This is one of the gifts Mr. Orochi gave me."
While washing up, he looked at himself in the mirror and suddenly had the idea of finding something to cover his face. At least when he was feeling socially frustrated, he could act like an ostrich.
So he searched in the storage ring and found a small magician doll. The wide-brimmed hat on the doll's head was just the right size for him.
marvelous!
Regardless of why a magic snake would have a magician doll, this hat was a timely help and perfectly solved his troubles.
Putting on his hat, Shu Li went out with a heroic and confident look.
The cubs became very interested in the hats and agreed to go to the commercial district after school to ask the owner of the armor shop if he had any similar hats.
At school, every adult fairy who saw Shu Li would sincerely praise her, "What a beautiful hat."
Shu Li smiled politely, and the brim of his hat was pulled lower and lower, almost covering his entire face.
He originally wanted to keep a low profile, but it backfired.
Breakfast went smoothly. The young fairies all smiled kindly at him when they saw him. However, during the first class, Shu Li suffered a huge blow.
The first class today is Xite’s language class.
He entered the classroom with a thick stack of papers in his arms, smiling broadly, and then—
Shu Li decisively pulled down the brim of his hat to cover his face, his ears filled with relaxing harp tunes and nursery rhymes with his name.
Ahhhhh——
What a horrible experience this is?
Not to mention digging his toes into the ground, he wanted to jump off the sacred tree right then and there, burrow into the mud, and sleep forever.
"Sperian, won't you sing along?" Angel's amber eyes shone like stars. "I really like the song 'Sperian and Mother Squirrel'. It's so fun."
He took off the small dagger hanging from his waist, pointed it forward, and shouted, "Retreat—"
Shu Li quickly covered his mouth, raised her head, revealing her blushing face under the hat, and said in a heavy tone, "If we're friends, just keep quiet!"
"Mmmm?" Angel's mouth was covered, and his big eyes were full of questions.
Shu Li covered one cub's mouth, but couldn't cover the others. All the cubs with daggers enthusiastically engaged in combat, some even forming pairs, fencing like swordsmen.
You retreat and I advance, I advance and you retreat, we have a lot of fun.
Sit looked at the chaotic scene and did not stop it. Instead, he played the background music for the cubs.
Shu Li let go of Angel's mouth and glared at Sit with resentment.
Sit received his gaze, smiled, stopped playing, and walked over. "Sperian, don't you want to play with everyone?"
Shu Li propped up the drooping brim of her hat with her fingers, revealing her fair and tender little face. Her big green eyes were filled with dissatisfaction with Sid.
"No." He said with puffed cheeks.
Sit asked, "Why? Everyone is having a great time!"
Shu Li glared.
He was asking knowingly, wasn't he? Who would be happy to be the subject of ridicule?
The little cub remained silent. Ciel pulled a vacant chair and sat down in front of his desk. He asked softly, "Are you embarrassed?"
Shu Li shook his pointed ears and nodded heavily.
It's more than embarrassing, it's socially devastating countless times.
Seeing him lower his hat again, Sit didn't ask again. Instead, he slowly said, "In an era without written language, our people relied on oral traditions to pass down our culture and history. Initially, it was only oral, but it was often misrepresented or lost, so poetry and music emerged. Vivid lyrics, beautiful melodies, and powerful appeal allow our stories to be passed down for generations."
Shu Li clicked his fingers.
He knows this. Jingjing, the top student, also said it yesterday.
But...it's embarrassing that I became the protagonist of the poem!
"It's not shameful to be the protagonist of a poem." Seeing the cub's embarrassment, Sit moved his chair back, picked up his harp again, and with a flick of his slender fingers, the harp produced a pleasant tune.
The cubs who were playing heard the music, gathered together, and sat around Xit and Shuli.
Shu Li looked at Xit in confusion, unable to guess what he was going to do next.
"Poetry not only passes on stories, but also has educational significance. Through describing and praising the protagonists, we can understand what happened at the time and learn from it." Sit's eyes, as blue as the sky, gazed tenderly at the cub. "When we give poetry its magic, we can relive the past."
"The old scene reappears?" Shu Li repeated the unfamiliar word softly.
Sit asked with a smile, "The last time you heard Leah play and sing 'Song of Creation', you saw the Temple of the Gods, right?"
Shu Li nodded: "Yes... yes, I saw the gods and... the Elf King in the illusion."
Sit said: "In fact, that is not an illusion, but a real past."
Shu Li was slightly surprised.
This coincides with his guess.
"Do you want to see yourself on that day?" Sit's piano music changed, and a faint white light appeared on his fingertips, and magic was added.
"This..." Shu Li asked in confusion, "Isn't it said that everyone sees different illusions?"
More and more white light shone from Sit's fingertips. "When the player imbues the instrument with enough magic, he can make the audience see any illusion he wishes."
He paused, then blinked at the cub. "This is a high-level magic, not to be used lightly."
After saying this, he concentrated on playing, immersing his thoughts in music and poetry.
“…
Brave Sperian
Not afraid of danger
Determined to cross the forest
Return to the Sacred Tree
He spread his wings
Flying towards the treetops
Just to find the direction of the sacred tree
..."
Shu Li felt a little uncomfortable listening to the familiar nursery rhyme, but the other cubs were listening with great interest.
Just as he was pulling down the brim of his hat again, a dense forest suddenly appeared before his eyes. He looked around in surprise and found himself on the branches of a towering tree.
However, there is another "him" on another branch of this big tree.
The torn clothes, messy hair, and dirty little face all indicate that this poor goblin cub is exactly him from the day before yesterday.
Sit actually made the old scene come back to life.
Shu Li didn't have time to think about it. He just saw him look up at the tall tree trunk the day before yesterday, a determined expression on his face, and then he flapped his wings and rushed upwards.
At the time, Shu Li thought he was very fast, but now from a third-person perspective...
He had an urge to cover his face.
At this speed, it's not much faster than a fly, right?
The giant tree was hundreds of meters high. He had a hard time flying the day before yesterday, and Shu Li was worried about himself.
The little wings flapped crookedly and deviated from the direction from time to time.
It turns out that he was not flying in a vertical line at that time?
Finally, the little cub flew more than 30 meters, took a rest, and lay on the tree trunk panting.
Shu Li flew along, and perhaps because of the illusion, he felt much more relaxed than he did the day before.
The little cub looked up at the tall tree again with an expression of unwillingness to admit defeat. He gritted his teeth and rushed up more than a hundred meters in one breath.
This time, Shu Li was surprised.
I don’t know where I got the perseverance from at that time, but I actually persisted for so long.
Then, the giant demon snake appeared.
Shu Li now knows that Mr. Orochi is a good monster, but he didn’t know it the day before yesterday. He was so scared that his face turned pale and his body trembled.
Even though he was so scared, he was strong enough not to faint the day before yesterday. He used his broken Elvish to communicate with the other party and successfully escaped.
If he didn't understand why Sid revisited the old scene at first, now he seemed to understand a little.
The little goblin cub, unafraid of danger, charged forward without hesitation. The higher it climbed, the more difficult it became, and even when it was blown around by the strong wind, it never gave up.
Shu Li accompanied me on the flight the day before yesterday.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and the little cub lost its balance and was about to fall from the air. Shu Li couldn't help but stretch out his hand.
Caught nothing.
Shu Li was stunned.
The next second, a huge snake head jumped up from below and caught the little cub. The huge snake body circled around the tree trunk several times and easily reached the treetop.
From a distance, Shu Li stared blankly at the giant snake and the fairy cub dyed red by the sunset, and the sound of the piano and Sit's singing rang in his ears again.
"...Brave Sperian
Sitting on the head of the demon snake
Facing the sunset
Found the direction of the sacred tree
Please keep in mind
The name of the demon snake is
Bazin Burgareth
Bazin Burgareth
..."
The magical singing voice penetrated the limitations of time and space and spread throughout the fairy forest.
When the demon snake perched on the giant tree heard its own name, it suddenly raised its head and its eyes straightened up.
The squirrel mothers and their cubs, munching on fruit, stood in a row on the branches, looking in the direction where the singing came from.
The fat bird, which had just received the wax sealing letter, made a happy "cooing" sound. The four little birdies smelled the familiar smell, opened their mouths wide and chirped for food.
However, this time, the big fat bird did not feed the red crystal flower seeds it received to the little bird, but kept them for itself.
All the magical beasts in the forest knew that the cold-blooded and stingy demon snake Bazin Burgareth helped a lone fairy cub, and the story was written into a poem that will be sung through the ages.
Oh, what a lucky snake.
In a small cabin at the edge of the forest, the young prince was holding a medicine bowl. When he heard the melodious sound of a harp and pleasant singing, he turned his head and looked out the window in confusion.
The magic instructor who had just woken up sat back on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, a faint smile on his haggard face.
"Who's singing?" Seryu asked in surprise. The voice was like the sound of nature, in an unfamiliar language. He couldn't understand it, but it still stirred his heart. His pent-up energy vanished, and a warmth surged through his chest. Suddenly, his body was filled with strength.
"It's the goblins singing," said Harris weakly. "They're singing about a brave goblin cub."
Seryu was stunned. "Fairy...cub?"
Harris coughed several times and slowly translated the lyrics.
Listening to the lyrics translated by Harris, Seleu's mind gradually formed a picture of a fairy cub flying to the top of the tree without fear of danger.
"...Brave Sperian..."
Seleu murmured.
Even the newborn cubs risked their lives to return to the sacred tree, so what reason did he have to retreat?
No matter how hard or difficult it is, you should persevere.
"The fairy poems are very beautiful." Seleu handed the medicine bowl to the magic instructor and said solemnly, "Harris, please teach me the Elvish language!"
On the sacred tree, every fairy who heard Sit's singing saw the little cub flapping its wings and sprinting towards the top of the giant tree.
When the illusion ended, the young fairies gave Kumandi a thumbs-up. Kumandi remained calm as he picked up his quill and began polishing his newly written poem.
Shu Li, who didn't know that he was being "live broadcast", came back to his senses from the illusion and calmed down.
As Sitt says, there is no shame in being the protagonist of a poem.
He truly overcame the difficulties and found his way home.
The other cubs left the illusion one after another, looking at Shu Li with excitement and admiration.
"Sperian, you're awesome!"
"You're the bravest cub! We're so proud of you!"
"If I get lost in the forest in the future, I will do what Sperian did, climb to the top of the tree first, and then find the direction of the sacred tree."
"The demon snake is so big and scary! But it's so kind and helped Sperian."
Being praised by the cubs, Shu Li understood what it meant to be a role model.
This is the charm of poetry.
It is not only infectious but also thought-provoking.
Shu Li finally accepted the fact that he had become the protagonist of the poem. He looked at Xit and was about to thank him, but was surprised to find that he was sweating and pale.
"Site! What's wrong with you?" Shu Li asked nervously.
Sit gasped for breath, smiled weakly at the cub, and comforted him: "I'm fine... I just overused my magic."
Shu Li was slightly stunned.
He remembered what Sit had just said.
"This is a high-level magic, don't use it lightly."
"I'm sorry... I..." Shu Li apologized. If it weren't for untangling his knot, Sit wouldn't have consumed so much magic power.
"It's okay. Just meditate more and your magic power will recover soon." Sit put away the harp, stood up and said, "Let's stop here for today's class."
He didn't even have the strength to fly, and staggered towards the classroom door.
Shu Li stood up and wanted to reach out to help, but Xit seemed to have eyes on his back. He waved his hand to refuse and left the classroom with firm steps.
Elsa happened to come and saw Sit who had overused his magic. She frowned and supported his shaky body.
"You, you're so messy."
Forcing the reappearance of the past scene was not only a high-level magic, but also a forbidden technique. If the white magicians in the Continental Court learned of this, they would definitely hold those responsible accountable and bring them to justice.
Sit shrugged nonchalantly: "This is the Fairy Forest."
The Human Magic Association's approach is not popular.
Shu Li waited for Sit to leave, took off his magic hat, and put it into the storage ring.
He thought he didn't need it anymore.
Once you let go, you won’t be entangled.
Even when I hear poems about him, I can face it calmly.
The days passed by as planned, and Shu Li threw herself into her studies. She attended classes during the day and had extra meals at night. Her spoken English finally reached the standard, and she learned the Elvish language well enough that she no longer had to sing by ear.
In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and the much-anticipated Midsummer Festival has arrived as scheduled.
All the fairies were busy preparing for the Midsummer Festival. The little ones were especially excited, and were all very happy to go to the Elf Kingdom right away.
Aisha gave each cub a set of formal wear.
Shu Li got the dress and couldn't let it go.
This dress is very grand. In addition to the snow-white pleated skirt, there is also a cape embroidered with exquisite patterns.
Unlike ordinary capes, this one was shaped like a swallowtail, fastened to the shoulders with metal buckles and draped elegantly over the wings. The buckles were attached to golden ribbons, and at the ends of the ribbons were small, delicate bells. As they flew, the bells rang out, creating a clear, melodious sound.
With beautiful clothes, exquisite jewelry is indispensable.
A yellow gold necklace inlaid with gemstones, armlets, bracelets and belts with exquisite workmanship.
Wearing the whole set, your temperament instantly improves several levels.
When each cub was wearing a forehead ring, Shu Li was in a dilemma.
The emerald crown on his head suddenly became irritable, domineeringly occupying his head and refusing the forehead ring.
no--
The other cubs all wore beautiful yellow forehead rings, but he was the only one wearing a green hat... Oh, a green crown, do you see that?
Can I see it?
