Chapter 219 Returning to the Elf Kingdom Again
The evening in the city of Igya in the courtyard is the morning in the kingdom of the elves.
Shu Li emerged from the trunk of the mother tree, and before she had time to greet the fruits, she heard a childish voice.
"Sperian!"
Shu Li looked down and saw a beautifully dressed elf cub standing under the tree with its head tilted back. Its sky-blue eyes were bright and adorable.
"Israel~"
Shu Li quickly flew down, came to the elf cub, and greeted him with a bright smile: "Good morning."
"Good morning." Israel touched the small Shu Li with his finger.
Shu Li and his fingertips rubbed against each other, and then he retreated half a meter, instantly releasing his original power and turning into a large size.
It has grown so big that it can rub the elf cub.
He opened his arms, waiting for the elf cub to throw itself into his arms, and then rubbed his tender cheek with satisfaction.
Israel hugged his neck and said happily, "You are really back!"
"Yes, I said yesterday that I would go back to the Elf Kingdom today, and I will definitely keep my word." Shu Li picked him up and turned him around twice.
Israel's face turned slightly red, and his eyes were full of Shu Li.
Shu Li put him back on the ground, ruffled his hair, and asked, "Why are you the only one here? Where's Helene?"
Helene is the elf cub's enlightenment teacher. She follows him everywhere and never leaves his side. But today the sun rose from the west and was not with the cub.
Israel replied obediently, "Helene went to get me breakfast."
"Huh? You didn't have breakfast?" Shu Li looked at him in surprise.
Israel lowered his head shyly, his pointed ears drooping as his feet scraped against the pebbles. "I...wanted to see you sooner, so I came here to wait after getting up."
"Helene couldn't persuade you, so she had to bring you breakfast, right?" Shu Li asked.
"Yeah." Israel nodded embarrassedly.
Shu Li gently pinched his tender cheeks and said with a smile, "No next time! You must have breakfast before coming. I told you I will go back to Elfland to play with you every day."
So, don't worry about gains and losses.
Shu Li felt a little sorry for him.
When the elf cub is gestating in the fruit, it will develop intelligence as the fruit gradually matures.
Before being purified and transferred, Israel was nurtured in the branches of the mother tree for more than forty years. He clearly felt the cruelty of the dark elves to their cubs, which caused him great psychological trauma.
Even though he was transferred back to the mother tree in the Elf Kingdom and was loved by the elves, he was still afraid of being abandoned and killed because of his sensitive mind.
The elf had to use a lot of patience and love to help him regain a sense of security.
"I understand." Israel responded softly.
Shu Li took his hand. "Let's go to the restaurant."
Israel followed him obediently, occasionally raising his head to peek at his face. Seeing that he wasn't angry, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Shu Li raised the corner of her mouth slightly, taking in all his little movements.
When the big and the small walked out of the elf cub courtyard, suddenly, the seal of the God of Fire lit up on the back of Shu Li's hand, and then a red light shot out and turned into a fat little monster.
"Oh, I slept so well." Farm yawned loudly and stretched his short and fat limbs.
The elf cub blinked and stared at it.
Shu Li pinched the horn on Farm's head and asked, "Are you finally awake?"
Before entering the courtyard, Farm flew to Lake Niguna to hunt, swallowed a sixth-level lake-bottom monster, and then slept in the Seal of the God of Fire for two or three days.
Shu Li sensed that it was digesting the crystal core of the sixth-level monster, so he let it sleep to its heart's content. Unexpectedly, it woke up today.
Farm touched his stomach. "I'm hungry. I want to eat."
It looked around and saw a familiar scene with a look of surprise. "Hey, great! We are in the Elf Kingdom! I'm going to hunt in the Amitai Mountains!"
Without waiting for Shu Li's response, it flapped its bat wings and flew upwards quickly, changing its shape as it flew. After turning into a giant fire dragon lizard, it rushed into the sky with a "whoosh".
"—Remember to come back in two hours!"
Shu Li stared at the direction where Farm disappeared and shouted, not knowing whether it heard him or not.
What an impatient guy!
Helene came to the elf cub courtyard with a tray of food. Seeing Shuli holding Israel at the gate, she asked in surprise, "Sperien, you're back?"
Shu Li looked away and smiled at her. "Yes, and I also caught a hungry little frog."
"I, I'm an elf, not a little frog." Israel retorted weakly.
Shu Li bent down and pointed at his belly. "Listen, is it growling?"
Israel's face flushed red, and he covered his stomach with one hand. "The little frog's call is croak."
Cuckoo and quack are different.
Shu Li said, "That's a little pigeon."
Israel shook his head violently: "I'm not a little pigeon either!"
Shu Li sighed softly: "Okay, you are not a little frog, nor a little pigeon, you are a little elf."
Israel puffed out his cheeks.
Shu Li poked it with her finger: "If you are an elf, you must eat in the restaurant obediently!"
Israel lowered his head, his ears reddening. "I understand."
Shu Li said softly, "I need to apologize to Helene."
Israel knew his mistake and was able to correct it. He obediently apologized to Helene: "I'm sorry, I was willful."
Helene smiled gently: "It's okay, just correct it next time."
As expected, the young cub only listened to Sperian.
Shu Li looked at the plate in Helene's hand and stepped forward to take it: "Let me take it!"
Helene hesitated for a moment, then handed him the plate.
Shu Li took the plate and asked the elf cub, "Shall we go back to the restaurant to eat?"
Israel nodded quickly: "Okay."
Soon, they arrived at the restaurant and found a vacant table to sit down.
At this time, there were other elves eating breakfast. When they saw Shu Li, they put down their tableware and greeted her warmly.
Shu Li responded one by one and sat opposite the elf cub, watching him wipe his hands, grab the fruit, and bite it eagerly.
"Slow down." Shu Li reminded.
"Mmm~" The extremely hungry elf cub took a big bite and his cheeks puffed up.
So cute.
Shu Li resisted the urge to rub her hands.
After the elf cub finished breakfast, Shu Li took him to play for more than half an hour.
It’s better to say that it’s playing games than playing.
Yesterday, when I was doing street sweeping missions with Ace, I saw a toy store and bought a chess set for Israel.
Israel was so happy when he received the chess set that his eyes were curved with smiles.
Shu Li placed the chess pieces on the table, explained the rules in detail, and taught him how to play chess.
The elf cubs are very smart and can understand things at a glance.
After learning the rules, Shu Li started playing chess with him.
At the beginning, Israel stumbled and lost three games in a row, but he didn't cry or make a fuss. He just put on a stern face and asked seriously to continue.
Shu Li was secretly shocked.
The elf cub is so smart that it shows a trend of winning after just a few games.
This incredible learning talent is enviable.
Shu Li lost the last game of chess.
He stared at the chessboard in disbelief, unable to figure out for a moment why he had lost.
"I won!" Israel's tense little face finally relaxed and he cheered happily.
Seeing how happy he was, Shu Li no longer worried about why she lost.
The playtime passed quickly and it was time for the little cub to go study.
He looked back every few steps and followed Helena into the study.
"I'll come again tomorrow," said Shu Li.
After receiving his assurance, Israel waved to Shu Li and said reluctantly, "See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow." Shu Li breathed a sigh of relief after watching him enter the room.
It’s really not easy to take care of children!
However, the cub is so easy to rub, of course I can’t let it go!
After a while, Shu Li walked towards the Elf King's courtyard.
I want to show you my new insights into magic today.
He walked briskly to the Elf King's courtyard. As soon as he stepped through the gate, he heard a familiar voice.
Ilio?
Are you hallucinating?
Shouldn't he be at the Saint Vilia School of Magic in the atrium?
Shu Li couldn't help but spread the wings behind him and rushed into the yard. Soon, he saw the Elf King and the black-haired elf in the pavilion.
"Ilio!" Shu Li asked in surprise, "Why are you back?"
Elio turned around and asked with a smile: "You are back, why can't I come back?"
Shu Li glared. He had been able to return thanks to the roots of the mother tree, but what did Ilio rely on?
"You... teleported back?" He was shocked.
The magic of the God of Magic was so terrifying that it could directly cross half the continent and teleport from the courtyard back to the Elf Kingdom.
Elio's eyes flashed, but he didn't deny it. "That's about right!"
He dared not reveal the king's secret, so to conceal it, he could only acknowledge it ambiguously. Thanks to the king's generous teaching, he learned the improved version of the teleportation array.
The teleportation array is great, but its only drawback is its price. A single consumption of high-level magic stones can extend the life of an ordinary teleportation array for half a month.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Shu Li asked enviously, "Will I be able to teleport across the continent at will when I become a God of Magic?"
Elio looked at the innocent face of the little elf, mused for a moment, and said seriously, "Every magic god is different. The skills I have may not be possessed by other magic gods."
"I see!" Shu Li nodded. "When I become a god of magic, you can teach me."
"Alright," Ilio replied crisply, flicking his forehead with his finger. "Go back and rest early."
Shu Li covered her forehead and glared at him: "I know."
Elio smiled meaningfully, saluted the Elf King gracefully, and turned to leave.
As soon as he left, Shu Li immediately looked at the Elf King with sparkling eyes. "Good morning, King."
"Good morning." A faint smile spread across the Elf King's handsome face. "It should be evening in the courtyard."
"Oh, yes." Shu Li said, "I'm not sleepy now, I came back to play with Israel."
Of course, the real purpose is to meet the Elf King.
"Israel is the only cub in the Elven Kingdom. He is indeed lonely." The Elf King stroked Shu Li's hair, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard at all." Shu Li shook his head. "Israel is very good and obedient."
The Elf King lowered his hand and looked at Shu Li with his emerald green eyes. "Are you used to the magic academy? Are you being bullied?"
When Shu Li heard this, he knew what Ilio had just reported to the king.
"A human tried to bully us, and I beat him back."
He frankly told the Elf King everything about the conflict between Team Light and Luvisi.
"...King, did you send Ilio to follow us?" Shu Li asked.
At that time, Fritton was in trouble, and Elio appeared at the right time. He was like a tough guy sent from heaven. He made Fritton angry to death with just a few words.
If Ilio hadn't shown up, I really wouldn't know how to end the situation appropriately. If all else fails, I'll have to ask Danlov to step in.
In front of the God of Law, Fritton would not dare to blindly protect his shortcomings!
But if you do this, it will be a bit like bullying.
Elio's approach to resolving problems through competition is the best. Conflicts between juniors should be resolved by the juniors themselves, with victory or defeat determined by strength.
He suppressed his level and always maintained the level of an intermediate magic apprentice. He relied solely on the combat experience he had accumulated in daily competitions. Even though Lu Weixi had many treasures in his hands, he still lost the game. It was no one else's fault.
As for whether he was later awakened by Seleu, we have to wait and see how he performs in the future.
The Elf King saw a leaf fall into Shu Li's hair, and he naturally raised his hand to pinch it and take the leaf off.
"Yes." He answered the goblin's question, "I can't bear to leave you guys alone after all."
Shu Li didn't mind getting a positive answer. Instead, he heard concern in the Elf King's words.
The only thing I'm curious about is whether Ilio will follow me all the way or show up directly at the magic academy?
After all, he can teleport over a long distance.
Shu Li asked his question, and the Elf King said without hiding anything: "After you left the Fairy Forest, he followed you."
"Oh—" Shu Li held her cheeks, "No wonder I always felt like someone was following us. It turns out Ilio has been following us all along!"
The Elf King raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
Shu Li blinked and said, "He will be a teacher at the magic academy next."
The Elf King nodded: "Yes."
Shu Li asked cautiously, "He shouldn't... teach our class, right?"
If Ilio were to teach a class, the days ahead would be dire.
There was a magic mentor who turned on the taunting mode every day and died of anger by vomiting blood!
Thinking back on the past three years, in order to leave the Fairy Forest, the five goblins challenged Ilio day and night and were tortured to death.
After finally defeating him, he happily went to the human magic academy, but after going around in circles, he became Ilio's "student" again.
How unlucky!
The Elf King met the little goblin's expectant gaze and said, "I will persuade him to restrain himself."
Shu Li's pointed ears drooped immediately.
He knew that Ilio would never miss the opportunity to teach the goblin.
The Elf King patted his head soothingly.
Shu Li felt the warm palm on his head and couldn't help rubbing it.
"...King, your teleportation magic is stronger than Ilio's, right?" he asked curiously.
The Elf King paused while touching his hair, frowned, and said, "Of course."
Shu Li's ears perked up, and he looked up and asked, "Then... has the king ever teleported to other places on the continent before?"
He didn't believe that the Elf King, who was as powerful as a god, was a "long-time otaku".
"Occasionally." The Elf King put down his hand and stepped out of the pavilion. He was bathed in the warm sunshine, with an upright posture and shining golden hair.
Shu Li looked at the Elf King's back with a confused look on his face.
Why does Ace's back look so similar to the Elf King's?
The same broad shoulders, the same narrow waist, the same slender legs... and hair as dazzling as gold.
Shu Li rubbed his eyes and looked at the Elf King again, only to find that he was turning sideways. The sunlight shining on his handsome face added infinite holiness to him.
"What's wrong?" the Elf King asked in a low voice.
"No, nothing." Shu Li avoided his gaze guiltily, leaped onto the open space in the courtyard, and swiftly took out a high-level magic wand from her storage ring. She said energetically, "King, I have a new understanding of magic and I want to demonstrate it to you."
The Elf King smiled: "Okay."
Shu Li looked at his smile and almost lost her mind. She bit her tongue secretly to remind herself not to be distracted.
"Please watch carefully, King—"
After calming himself down, he raised his magic wand, and the spell of hellfire flashed through his mind. The fire element in the air surged like a torrent and gathered at the top of the magic wand. In an instant, it formed a giant oriental dragon burning with blazing flames.
A giant flaming dragon over a hundred meters long circled upwards with such majestic momentum that it alarmed the nearby elves.
The Elf King quickly spread out his five fingers and cast a high-level defensive magic circle to protect the flowers and plants in the courtyard from being burned by the scorching flames.
Shu Li waved his magic wand, controlling the giant fire dragon to flexibly assume various attack postures.
The Q-version wood elf quietly appeared on the shoulder of the Elf King, his eyes reflecting the huge monster that should not appear on the Austin continent.
The Wood Elf whispered, "Fris... This dragon appeared thirty years earlier."
The Elf King didn't respond, his green eyes fixed on the little elf dancing with her magic wand. His eyes were completely different from usual, deep as a pool, hiding many untraceable and incomprehensible emotions.
After Shu Li demonstrated his creative magic, he retracted his magic power, and the giant fire dragon instantly turned into a fire element and dissipated into the air.
"King!" He ran to the Elf King happily, looking as if asking for praise.
The Elf King suppressed his unnecessary emotions and praised him generously, "You did an excellent job."
"Hehehe!" Shu Li grinned happily.
