Chapter 133 He is a special little goblin
Danlov stood where he was, watching the little elf named Sperian happily throw himself into the arms of the Elf King and cling to him intimately.
The Elf King had a gentle expression. He let him sit in his palm and gently touched his hair with his fingers.
The little goblin smiled brightly and took the initiative to rub the Elf King's fingertips.
Danlov shifted his gaze to the other three goblins, only to see them hovering about a meter away, respectfully saluting the Elf King.
The difference between the two is immediately apparent.
As Ilio said, Sperion is special.
Although Danlov grew up beside the Elf King, he had never been as close to him as Sperien.
The Elf King rarely reveals his emotions. He appears gentle but is actually cold. His deep green eyes are indifferent and lack much emotion.
Perhaps it was because he had lived too long and seen through everything, so nothing could cause the slightest ripple in his heart.
However, when he returned to the Elf Kingdom this time, Danlov discovered that the Elf King seemed to have more warmth.
Now seeing his intimate interaction with the little goblin, I finally understand where this warmth comes from.
Shu Li was used to being close to the Elf King and didn't think there was anything wrong with his behavior.
To him, the Elf King is a teacher and someone he can confide in and act coquettishly with.
After saying hello, he pointed to the coffin on the grass and talked incessantly about its origins and the purpose of himself and his friends coming to the Elf Kingdom.
The Elf King listened to him patiently and praised his actions.
“You guys did a great job.”
Shu Li chuckled, spread his wings, flew away from the Elf King's palm, and stayed with his friends.
Elio walked slowly to the coffin, examined it carefully, stroked his smooth chin, and said, "It really does look like a treasure chest."
"Really?" Shu Li twitched her pointed ears. "It was so big, I thought it must be filled with treasures."
The three-headed water monster offered to exchange it for the Moonlight Stone, and he agreed without thinking.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a coffin, and inside it was a corpse that had been dead for an unknown period of time.
Elio raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't tell me, there might really be treasures inside."
"Wow? Really? Ilio!" Budno exclaimed.
Ilio pointed at the coffin and said, "If there's any treasure, we'll know if we open it and take a look."
"No, no, no—" The four little goblins waved their hands in unison, their faces filled with fear.
It is unethical to disturb the deceased.
Danlov finally saw Ilio's bad character, and he even teased such a cute little goblin.
"In the human world, when nobles pass away, precious burial objects are often placed in their coffins." He explained to the goblin about human funerals. "Burying objects are usually the deceased's favorite things during their lifetime."
And the things that the deceased liked during his lifetime are naturally treasures.
Some people with low moral character specifically target the tombs of nobles and wealthy people, steal valuable items from the tombs, and sell them at underground auction houses.
After hearing this, Shu Li suddenly understood.
Yes, in his world, when ancient kings and generals died, they would also have a lot of burial objects. In order to prevent tomb robbers from stealing, they would spend huge amounts of manpower, financial resources and material resources during their lifetime and take great pains to build solid tombs.
Unfortunately, tomb robbers were rampant and many ancient tombs were looted.
According to Danlov, the kings and nobles of this world have the same troubles.
The matter of the coffin came to an end, and Shu Li prepared to return to the sacred tree with his friends.
"Since you're here, why not play for a while longer? I'll have Ilio take you back tomorrow morning."
The Elf King spoke, and the four goblins happily stayed.
Although it was just for fun, in the Elf Kingdom, when things got busy, everyone would be assigned work, including Danlov.
The Elf Kingdom doesn't keep idle people.
He was a guest and the eldest disciple of the Elf King. He grew up in the Elf Kingdom and was very familiar with the rules here.
Therefore, he joined in the wheat harvest.
The Elf Kingdom is vast and the land is fertile. The elves have opened up arable land on the plains and planted large areas of wheat.
The annual wheat yield is very high, more than enough for all elves and fairies to eat. The excess amount is stored in storage items and taken to the human world by elves or fairies who go out for training to exchange supplies with some countries or other races.
These materials are often crystal ores, metals, herbs, etc. that are not available in the Elf Kingdom and the Fairy Forest.
The wheat has ripened in the past two days, and more than a dozen elves go to harvest it every day.
Shu Li and his friends grew bigger and stood on the path in the field, looking at the wheat fields that looked like a golden ocean.
Under the careful care of the elves, the wheat grew particularly well. Each grain was plump and, when illuminated by the sun, it looked as crystal clear as topaz.
When the wind blows, waves of wheat appear one after another, set against the blue sky and white clouds, like a pure and beautiful painting, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
The elves harvest wheat without using any tools.
Magic can solve everything.
It was time to practice magic again. The goblins took out their magic wands, each taking charge of an acre of wheat field, and went to harvest with great enthusiasm.
Danlov's eyes followed the blond elf, watching him raise his magic wand and cast wood magic easily and quickly. Whole fields of wheat were uprooted, then tied together with a twisted straw rope and neatly stacked together.
He released his perception, confirming and affirming that the blond elf did not utter any magic spell.
Sure enough, what happened in the courtyard before was not his illusion.
Danlov frowned slightly, puzzled.
Sperian is just a magician, how can he cast intermediate or advanced wood magic silently?
"Surprised?"
Ilio stood beside him and asked with a smile.
Danlov nodded. "Yes, I'm surprised. He's learned silent magic at such a young age."
Elio winked at him. "Would you be more surprised if I told you that he could perform silent magic at the age of five?"
Danlov blurted out: "Five years old? Impossible!"
No matter how talented a fairy is, his magical attributes only awaken at the age of five, right?
Ilio waved a slender finger at him. "The little elves in Sperion's group all awakened their magical attributes after three or four months. By the age of five, they were already apprentice magicians. But Sperion was different. He awakened all seven branches of magic. Blessed by the King at birth, and with the guidance of the Mother Tree, he was the first to learn the art of Silent Purification."
The more Danlov listened, the more incredible it became.
Yesterday, I heard Ilio talk about Sperion's "brave deeds". Not only did I find it interesting, but my curiosity was also aroused. I decided to stay until the beginning of next month to meet the Elf King's young disciple.
Unexpectedly, the other party came to him early this morning.
After spending a while in contact, he agreed with Ilio's words very much.
Now that he knew about Sperian's magical talent, it completely overturned his understanding of magic.
It was as if I had entered a blind spot and began to doubt my life.
"...Sperien single-handedly purified the ruins of the ancient battlefield in the north, successfully summoning the long-lost Wood Elves and earning their recognition." Ilio's lips curled slightly, full of pride, as if showing off his younger brother. "So, he also knows silent wood magic."
Danlov opened his mouth and looked at the busy blond goblin in the wheat field, with a hint of admiration in his blue eyes.
Ilio patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Danlov, don't be so tense. Relax a little. Let's work together and see who can harvest the most wheat today."
Danlov also smiled and accepted his challenge.
Soon, a Dharma Saint and a Dharma God harvested the wheat fields like fallen leaves in the wind.
Shu Li tied up a pile of wheat and took a break. He looked up and saw Danlov and Ilio competing to "flatten" the wheat field, and was stunned.
Wow!
So awesome!
As expected of a magic saint and a magic god, they cast magic quickly and accurately without taking a breath, and used wind magic to perfection. In just a few breaths, an acre of wheat field was plucked out and neatly stacked together, waiting to be plucked.
Shu Li was inspired to fight, and felt that he should also work harder.
Come, wood elf, help me cast the most powerful wood magic.
He raised his magic wand, and the wood elements in the air rushed towards him frantically. The huge shadow of the wood elf appeared behind him, spreading his arms and driving all the wood elements to work for him.
Danlov and Ilio stopped their actions at the same time, turned to look at the blonde elf not far away, and their pupils suddenly contracted.
"That is..."
"Wood Spirit."
Ilio looked at Shu Li with sharp eyes.
Under the giant tree near the wheat field, the noble and handsome Elf King stood quietly, his eyes gazing at Shu Li with endless tenderness.
After a busy day, Shu Li and his friends returned tiredly to the elf cub's courtyard.
Although the work was tiring, he had a lot of fun and felt that his magic skills had improved a lot.
I took a comfortable hot bath, changed my clothes, casually tied my hair into a ponytail, and went to the restaurant to eat feeling refreshed.
The restaurant is busier than usual with the goblin around.
When Budno saw the pile of food, his eyes lit up. He picked up his knife and fork and started eating with relish.
Since he was upgraded to a high-level magician, he has been able to control his weight. No matter how much food he eats, he will not gain weight.
Doesn't that mean you have to eat your fill and enjoy the food to your heart's content?
"Mmm, delicious! So delicious!" Budno ate and gestured to his companions, "Hurry up and eat too."
"Eat slowly, be careful not to choke." Angel reminded him.
"Yeah, I know," Budno said vaguely, reaching for the plate in front of him with his fork.
Dizio quickly took the plate away. "This is my fruit!"
Budno took back his fork and said awkwardly, "Sorry, I misread it."
Shu Li shook his head.
Every time I eat with Budno, my appetite becomes very active and my food intake increases without me noticing.
Danlov felt the harmonious atmosphere, raised his beer and clinked it with Ilio's.
After dinner, the elves began their entertainment life.
In the magnificent palace, the elves, dressed in gorgeous robes and wearing exquisite and expensive jewelry, gathered in the magnificent hall, singing and dancing gracefully.
Ilio held a golden harp in his arms and played with other elves, producing light and beautiful melodies.
"When the morning star rises
The night stars disappear in the sky
Darkness fades
The earth welcomes the long-awaited light
The God of Spring brings breeze and drizzle
Moisturizing the dry earth
..."
A song of "Earth" brings endless joy to the elves.
Shu Li naturally invited the Elf King to dance with him.
As he grew older, he grew taller.
The fifteen-year-old goblin, after growing in size, stood next to the Elf King, only reaching his shoulders.
Although he has a poor body shape, he is able to complete all the movements well.
As a fairy who had danced with the Elf King since childhood, Shu Li had no qualms about dancing the female steps. Of course, if he was lucky, the Elf King would cooperate with him in dancing the female steps.
It can be said that his dance was taught by the Elf King.
Danlov stood before the pillar, and the sight of the Elf King and the goblins dancing had completely wiped out all the shock he had ever felt in his life.
He had been in the Elf Kingdom for so many years, but he had never seen the Elf King dance with other elves.
But now, the Elf King seemed to have changed and only doted on a little goblin, which was simply unbelievable to him.
Is it just because Sperian is his little disciple?
Danlov looked at Ilio, who was playing the harp.
They are both students of the Elf King, so it seems they don't have this kind of honor, right?
This trip back to the Elf Kingdom had a huge impact on him. Whether it was Sperien's unique silent magic or the Elf King's attitude towards him, they all gave him a completely new understanding.
"Danlov, can I invite you to dance?" Silver-haired Angel stood in front of him and made an elegant invitation gesture.
Danlov was quite surprised.
Elves don't like dancing with humans, so he was left here for a while. He didn't expect that the young elf in front of him would invite him to dance.
"My pleasure." Danlov smiled.
He hadn't danced the elf dance for a long time and started a beat late.
Angel didn't mind at all and patiently guided him to follow the beat of the music and dance well.
Regaining his former dancing feeling, Danlov relaxed.
If the magicians in the atrium saw him dancing, they would be shocked.
"Danlov, I heard that you founded the St. Villiers School of Magic?" Angel asked curiously while jumping.
"Yes." Danlov nodded.
Angel's amber eyes sparkled. "Then could you write me a letter of recommendation?"
"Huh?" Danlov almost took a wrong step and looked at the boy who was shorter than him with confusion.
Is he not old enough to go to the mainland for training yet?
Angel said, "I want to get the recommendation letter first and use it later."
In order to break the curse, Sperien and Ilio went to the human world. Not only did he pass the magic apprentice badge, he also got a letter of recommendation from the Saint Vilia School of Magic, which made the other goblins envious.
This time the Mage came to the Elf Kingdom, which was a rare opportunity, so he shamelessly asked for a letter of recommendation.
Danlov didn't understand the little elf's thoughts. Since the little elf wanted it, he happily agreed and promised to write him a letter of recommendation after the dance.
Angel achieved his goal, ended the song happily, and walked briskly to find other elves to dance.
Danlov returned to the pillar and picked up the juice on the table.
After just two sips, someone invited him to dance.
The young elf with fiery red hair and a hint of arrogance in his gem-like eyes made an invitation and said loudly, "Danlov, can I ask you to dance with me?"
Danlov put down his cup and smiled affably, "My pleasure."
Discio successfully invited him and quickly took his hand and led him to the dance floor.
After dancing with Angel, Danlov was already familiar with the elf dance, and this time, dancing with the red-haired young fairy, he was very familiar with it. The only thing that frustrates him is that Dizio's personality is not as gentle as Angel's, so he naturally dances the male steps.
So, Danlov, the Dharma Saint respected by mankind, had to dance the female steps.
Halfway through the dance, Dizio spoke: "Danlov, can you give me a letter of recommendation from the Saint Virya School of Magic?"
Danlov: "...Okay."
He finally understood that the goblin's request to dance with him was fake, and her real request was for a letter of recommendation from the magic academy.
"That's great, thank you!" Discio was beaming with joy. He quickly finished the dance and skipped away.
Danlov, who felt taken advantage of, laughed and left the dance floor. However, before he could walk back to the pillar, a young fairy with brown hair and brown eyes smiled cutely and invited him to dance.
"Danlov..."
"Would you like a letter of recommendation? Sure."
Budno blinked. "So easy? Getting a recommendation without dancing is fantastic!"
"Thank you!" Budno smiled brightly.
After sending the three goblins away, Danlov finally had some peace and quiet. He looked at Sperion, who had just finished three dances with the Elf King, wondering if he would come looking for him.
Shu Li was sweating all over and walked towards a nearby table. When he passed by Danlov, he found that his eyes were following him. He glanced at him in confusion, picked up the cup on the table and poured himself a glass of fruit.
Danlov waited for him to speak, standing silently.
After Shu Li finished one glass, he felt it was not enough, so he poured another one and continued drinking.
Halfway through his drink, he put the cup down and met Danlov's gaze in confusion.
What's wrong? Why are you looking at him so strangely? Is there something wrong with him?
Shu Li touched the silver ring on his forehead.
The little corolla has not revealed its true form!
Danlov coughed awkwardly twice and asked, "Do you... need a letter of recommendation from the Saint Vilia School of Magic?"
The first three goblins all wanted it, and Sperian should want it too.
You have to write three letters, so a fourth one won’t make a difference.
Shu Li blinked, digesting Danlov's words, and blinked again.
He thought that Angel and the others actively invited the Mage to dance because they were afraid that he would be left out, but it turned out that their motives were not pure and they were actually aiming for the letter of recommendation from the Magic Academy.
Shu Li already has a letter of recommendation.
It was written to him by Job Carter Gullane, the testing instructor of the Magic Association of Daoto City.
The Mage Saint is definitely higher than Job and is more valued by the teachers of the Magic Academy, but Shu Li does not want to disappoint Job.
He took out a wax-sealed letter from his storage ring. "Thank you, but I have a letter of recommendation."
Danlov was surprised and looked down at the badge and the recipient's name on the letter.
Gabrielle Muse.
He turned out to be the current principal of the Magic Academy.
He smiled and asked with interest, "Can I know where it came from?"
"Of course." Shu Li put away the letter of recommendation and told him without hiding anything that she was cursed and had to go to the human world with Ilio to find the Queen of the Dalia Empire to lift the curse.
After hearing his story, Danlov couldn't help but sigh.
This fifteen-year-old little devil has such a rich experience that she can even have a biography published.
"You are very good, Sperian. I wish my students were half as good as you." He sighed.
Human talent is ultimately limited.
Over the past two thousand years, he has accepted ten extremely talented disciples, but none of them is as motivated and empathetic as Sperian.
Being cursed, he could have simply asked the Elf King to destroy the magician's soul and forcibly lift the curse, but he was kind enough to deliver the letter himself and fulfill the magician's last wish.
He accidentally exchanged the precious Yuexin Stone for a human coffin. Not only did he not regret it, he also wanted to send the deceased, who was not related to him, home.
He doesn't look like a goblin.
Fairies are extremely averse to the outside world and it is impossible for them to make such a special decision.
He doesn't look human either.
Humans are generally selfish and rarely risk their lives for something that has no benefit.
Sperian did these two things without asking for anything in return, simply because he wanted to do them.
He suddenly understood the true meaning of "Brave Sperian".
Shu Li finished drinking the juice, licked the corner of his lips, and said to the Dharma Saint: "Dan Luofu, you can't think like this."
"Hmm?" Danlov looked at the serious face of the young elf.
Shu Li said, "I once read this sentence in a book: Comparing people will make you die, and comparing goods will make you throw them away."
Danlov was surprised.
Shu Li added, "Everyone is unique, with their own strengths and weaknesses. We can't generalize. If your students knew you were comparing them to me, they would be sad. And I'm not necessarily better than your students."
In his original world, he was ridiculed by many for his poor foreign language skills. They said his three older brothers were so talented and fluent in multiple languages, but why did he have a genetic mutation that made him unable to even learn English, the easiest language to learn?
After hearing these words, he was discouraged for a long time, hated English even more, and refused to do his homework when he got home.
The head teacher called home and the call was picked up by the eldest brother. After understanding the situation, the eldest brother hung up the phone and looked at him who was huddled in the corner of the sofa.
At that time, Shu Li was prepared to be scolded, but he didn't expect that his elder brother didn't say anything reproachful, but just rubbed his hair.
"It doesn't matter. If you can't learn well, then you can't learn well."
"But...others laugh at me for being dumber than you."
He pouted and tears welled up in his eyes.
The eldest brother squatted in front of him, pinched his cheek, and said with a smile: "So what? Your second and third brothers and I can't play the violin! Does that mean we are also dumber than you?"
He shook his head: "Of course not."
The eldest brother said, "That's it! Everyone has their own strengths. Why compare your weaknesses with others' strengths? You are you, unique and the best!"
After this incident, he no longer felt inferior.
If he can't learn well, then he can't learn well. Anyway, he has tried his best - well, of course, he sometimes has a bad attitude!
If he hadn't been playing badly, he wouldn't have taken out his phone to play games while memorizing words, and then his father knocked on the door in the middle of the night. As a result, he fell down out of guilt and was knocked unconscious by a dictionary, and was transported to another world.
Coming to a different world where he couldn't speak the language, he put aside his bad attitude, worked hard to overcome difficulties and studied diligently.
It turned out that he was not as bad as imagined. As long as you make up your mind, there is nothing you can't do.
A blazing fire ignited in his eyes, and he clenched his fists. With a resolute look, he said to the Dharma Saint, "Every weak person has a heart that wants to become stronger! So do I! That's why I keep moving forward, determined to become as strong as the king!"
Danlov felt the vigorous vitality from the young elf, which was as tenacious as grass and contained infinite power.
He lamented that his life was coming to an end, but did he still have the determination and perseverance to pursue a higher realm?
Over the years, he seemed to be working hard, but in fact he had been stagnant.
The busy work, the flattery around him, and the glory brought by power were all wearing away his fighting spirit.
It's time to pay attention to your inner self.
"Thank you, Sperian." Danlov saluted the young goblin.
Shu Li was at a loss.
Why did you suddenly thank him?
He stood up for the Dharma Saint's students and made a few rebuttals, but why did the Dharma Saint still thank him?
——I feel so embarrassed!
Danlov didn't explain, just smiled and left the bustling hall.
Shu Li looked at his back, confused.
"Uh...did I say something wrong?"
The Elf King came to his side, reached out and touched his soft hair, and praised: "You speak very well."
After receiving the Elf King's affirmation, Shu Li felt relieved.
After the ball, Angel, Decio, and Budno successfully obtained the recommendation letters from the Saint of Law. They were so excited that they jumped and danced in the corridor holding the letters with wax seals.
Sai Ya comes and urges them to sleep.
They jumped into their rooms with laughter.
Shu Li shrugged his shoulders, closed the door, stretched, washed up, and turned back into his small form. Just as he was about to take out his diary, the voice of the mother tree rang in his mind.
"Sperian, my roots have purified the deserts of the Ezerafar Empire. Are you sure you want to search for the Fire Spirit alone?"
