Chapter 160 Punishment for Absence
When Shu Li sat down at the dining table, eight fairy cubs surrounded her.
"Sperien, we want to hear the story of you and the God of Magic in the Elf Kingdom." Misina blinked her big blue eyes, full of anticipation.
Shu Li smiled and ruffled his golden hair. "Let's go back to the classroom after dinner and talk about this, okay?"
This is just a small matter, there is no need to hold a symposium, just talk about it in your own class. If other fairies are interested, they can come to their classroom to listen.
"Okay!" The goblin cubs responded in unison and continued to eat breakfast happily.
Shu Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After happily finishing breakfast, the goblins flew to the classroom happily. Misina and the other eight goblin cubs excitedly moved their stools and sat obediently in the back row of the classroom, waiting to listen to the wonderful story.
What surprised Shu Li was that Kumandi and several classmates also came.
When the school bell rang, Aisha, Sid, and Danya, who was teaching the fairy cubs, came in one after another.
"Sperien, Angel, Desio, Budno—" Elsa called out the names one by one, and the four elves stood up one after another. She said with a friendly smile, "Yesterday, Ilio sent me a message saying that with your help, Danlov broke through the bottleneck and ascended from Mage Saint to Mage God. Everyone is curious about what you have been doing in the Elven Kingdom these days. Come up and tell us."
As soon as she finished speaking, the goblins applauded enthusiastically.
Shu Li and his three friends looked at each other, walked to the podium with their heads held high, and began to tell stories under the expectant gaze of the goblins.
They exchanged a beautiful treasure chest with the three-headed water monster, but it turned out to be a human coffin. Upon learning that the Mage was a guest in the Elf Kingdom, they immediately went to visit him and asked him to help send the coffin home.
The four goblins took turns narrating and supplementing each other. When they talked about the Sage teaching them and telling them about his heroic deeds in the past, the other goblins listened with great interest.
Of course, there was no mention of the mother tree or Shu Li's adventures outside at night.
This is a secret belonging to the four little elves and cannot be revealed for the time being, but the new fruits of the mother tree are mentioned.
"Wow! Big fruit? How big is it?"
"The mother tree is amazing. It actually produced huge fruits overnight."
"Are the elves going to have cubs soon?"
"I heard that it takes a hundred years for an elf cub to grow in a fruit. It shouldn't be that fast!"
"Maybe it's different now."
"If the elf cub is born, it can play with us!"
"I wonder if the elf cubs are easy to get along with?"
"They must be easy to get along with! Cubs and all, they're the cutest~"
"Let's go to the Elf Kingdom to see Guoguo when the weekend comes!"
"Great—"
Two consecutive classes were spent in storytelling. After the class, the four little devils, thirsty and thirsty, returned to their seats in high spirits.
Shu Li's eyebrows twitched when he saw Jingjing's notebook full of notes.
There are countless poems written about him, half of which were written by Kumandi.
He writes poetry so fast.
Shu Li went from being embarrassed at first to lying down now.
As the get out of class was about to end, Sit stood in the middle of the podium and said with a smile: "Although Sperien and his friends' trip to the Elf Kingdom was very exciting, but-"
The goblin students quieted down, and Shu Li's ears flickered as he suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Sure enough, the next second, a strange light flashed in Sit's blue eyes, and he continued, "As punishment for skipping classes, you will be responsible for cleaning the branches near the school for the next week."
"Ah—no—"
Suddenly, the four little goblins wailed.
Woo woo woo~~~ Although I knew that I would be punished after skipping classes, I didn’t expect that it would be to clean up tree branches.
In addition to fairies, the sacred tree is also home to many birds, insects, small animals, etc. Among them, birds are straightforward and cannot control their excretion, so they poop everywhere.
In order to keep the branches of the sacred tree clean, the fairies have to do a lot of cleaning work every day.
Fortunately, there is magic, which makes cleaning much easier.
However, the process of dealing with bird droppings is not pleasant in any way.
The four little goblins, who were originally full of vigor and vitality, slumped down on the table in unison, looking dejected.
The other goblins gave them sympathetic looks.
Misina said to Shu Li enthusiastically, "Sperian, I'll help you!"
Shu Li raised her head, looked at the cub's tender face, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch it. "No, we can handle it."
How could he, a senior magician, have the nerve to ask a five-year-old magic apprentice for help?
Kumandi closed the notebook and encouraged, "Cleaning can improve your control over magic. Practice well."
"Yes." Shu Li perked up.
After finishing a day's classes, the other fairy students left the school happily, leaving Shu Li and her three friends to clean up with sad faces.
First, clean up the school playground, which is the birds' favorite place to hang out.
At the end of the day, the playground was covered with bird droppings, which made the four little goblins' eyes turn black.
Shu Li took out a handkerchief from the storage ring and used it as a mask to cover his mouth and nose. Then he took out his magic wand and recited the spell resignedly.
The three little friends followed suit and covered their faces with their handkerchiefs.
After working hard for more than an hour, the four little goblins were busy going back and forth, putting the bird droppings into special buckets, sending them to the designated treatment site under the sacred tree, and handing them over to the adult goblins as "nutrition" for the sacred tree.
When it was getting dark, they went back home first, rushed into the bathroom to wash and scrub, and then took a bath in the wooden tub for a while. After cleaning themselves up, they flew to the school cafeteria together for dinner.
After dinner, Shu Li didn't go anywhere. She went straight home and lay down on the bed. She was so tired that she just wanted to sleep.
However, he couldn't sleep because he had to make up for the classes he had missed in the past few days!
Shu Li got up painfully, sat down at the desk, and took out the notebook he borrowed from other little goblins.
Suddenly, the Seal of the God of Fire appeared on the back of his right hand, and a ray of light shot out. With a "click", a red little monster the size of a Totoro appeared on the carpet.
Farm stretched out his short, fat limbs, tilted his head and looked around, then asked with a hint of disdain, "Is this your home in the sacred tree? It's so small!"
In such a small room, it hit the wall after rolling three or four times. The bed is so small that it is not big enough for it to lie down.
Seeing it scratching its claws to get on his bed, Shu Li picked up a feather pen and threw it like a dart, hitting the little monster's hard back.
"No bed!"
The fairy's bed couldn't bear its weight.
Farm put down his paw in boredom, sat back on the soft carpet, and waved his front legs. "I'm hungry."
I stayed in the Seal of the God of Fire for a whole day and didn't eat for three meals. My stomach was rumbling.
Shu Li took out a few fruits from the storage ring to feed the dog.
Farm hugged the fruit and started to eat it with a "crunch crunch". "Hmm, really good. It would be even better if there was some meat on it."
Shu Li frowned: "You still want to eat meat?"
A monster won't starve to death if it doesn't eat for a day, and a full meal can often last it half a month. Yesterday, it ate so many low-level monsters in Mount Amitai that it almost cleared out all the prey in the monkey's territory. Now it even said with a smug face that it wanted to eat meat.
Farm was actually just greedy. When the little goblin stared at him with squinting eyes, he knew he was in the wrong, so he turned around and hugged the fruit and started to eat it.
"Well... I can't hide forever, can I?" It said while eating, "You clearly told me to live in the Fairy Forest."
Shu Li crossed his arms and watched how quickly it ate the fruit. He sighed, "With your appetite, I'm afraid the Fairy Forest will be devoured by you in a few days."
After finishing a bite of the fruit, Farm turned his head and retorted, "Am I such an unrestrained monster?"
Shu Li squinted at it and asked, "What do you think?"
If you had known self-control, would you have fought with the monkey yesterday?
Farm swung his tail in dissatisfaction, but the swing was too big and hit the leg of the bed. With a "click", the leg of the bed cracked.
Seeing this, Shu Li clenched his fists, and veins popped out of his forehead. "Farm, do you want me to recite the sealing spell?"
When Farm heard the "sealing spell", he immediately became obedient. Like a child who had done something wrong, he lowered his head and apologized innocently: "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to..."
How could it have known that the foot of the fairy's bed was so fragile that it cracked with a slight touch of its tail.
Also, that guy Sha Luo actually taught the little fairy the sealing spell.
Damn it!
Shu Li didn't want to be too harsh on it. After all, as the mount of the God of Fire, it was used to being arrogant, and asking it to control its temper would be difficult.
"Tomorrow I will introduce you to the fairies. From now on, you will live in the sacred tree. Your food will mainly consist of fruit. You can only go hunting in the forest once a month. You are not allowed to grow larger without my permission."
Shu Li made three rules with it and gave it some precautions in advance to prevent it from losing control and causing trouble again.
Farm rolled his eyes and agreed.
Anyway, pretending to be a Warcraft cub has many benefits, so it is extremely happy.
Shu Li wiped his face and resigned himself to using magic to fix the bed legs.
The next day, Farm, who was disguised as a baby animal, was indeed surrounded by the goblins.
"It's so pitiful. It was abandoned by its mother when it was so young."
"Is there a flaw somewhere? I heard that Warcraft will abandon the weakest cubs and only keep the strong ones."
"The world of Warcraft is so cruel."
"Luckily Sperian saved it."
"Good Sperian..."
"Shhhhh, stop singing, Sperian is blushing again, hahahaha!"
"Let's give it some fruit!"
Soon, Farm, who won the sympathy of the goblins, was fed by them. He ate the Kuku fruit one bite at a time and enjoyed it very much.
Shu Li stood aside and cast a contemptuous look at it.
A dignified tenth-level magical beast that has lived for tens of thousands of years actually used disguise to cheat the little fairies of their fruits. How shameless!
However, since he promised Sharo to take good care of Farm, he naturally did what he said.
In the following days, Shu Li spent his time in busy studies. There were endless languages and magic to learn every day, and he also added courses such as casting, sewing, alchemy, and potion making.
In order to go to the mainland for training as soon as possible, the three friends, like Shu Li, went to the Elf Kingdom to study every two weeks. The strict Dagmon taught them magic, and Ilio, who had the maximum level of taunting skills, taught them swordsmanship. Their days were in dire straits.
Three years passed in a blink of an eye. After hard study, Shu Li was successfully promoted to a great wizard. Angel, Decio, and Budno worked hard to catch up, pushing themselves every day and sweating a lot, and finally upgraded to senior magicians.
They have all met the requirements of the Elf King, and going to the mainland for training is just around the corner.
However, before leaving the Fairy Forest, they had to go to the Elf Kingdom to attend the Midsummer Festival. At the same time, the number three fruit that had been gestating for fifty years was about to be born.
Yes, the fruits transplanted from the mother tree branches have undergone a mutation and matured in less than a hundred years.
After receiving this good news, the fairies were overwhelmed with emotion and went to the Elf Kingdom a few days in advance to watch the birth of the elf cubs.
