Even if you can't eat it, it's good just to look at it.
"Then close your eyes, make a wish, and then blow out the candles." Lin Su said with a smile.
"Is this also a custom among humans?" Tang asked.
"Yes." Lin Su said with a smile.
"Sounds fun." Tang closed his eyes and made a serious wish, "I want to be with Lin forever."
"King, you can't make a wish out loud," the Irish priest reminded him, "or it won't work."
"Ah?!" Tang opened his eyes and said in shock, "What should I do? Can I take it back now? What should I do?"
"Have Irish priests also heard humans make wishes?" an elf asked curiously.
"Well, on birthdays there's a beautiful cake, and then you make a wish in your heart and blow out the candles so that the wish can be heard by the gods." The Irish priest smiled, "But I haven't seen a cake either."
"That's called a cake," said an elf. "How beautiful."
"King, please make another wish, but don't say it out loud this time." The elf next to him suggested.
Tang's eyes showed worry: "But the wish just now..."
"It's okay. Tell me your wish and I'll help you realize it." Lin Su held the cake in one hand, then touched his head and said, "Make another wish and then blow out the candles."
Tang clasped his hands, closed his eyes and silently thought to himself that he hoped the Elf Forest would always be as happy as it was now, then he opened his eyes and blew out the candle.
"Happy coming of age, King," the Irish priest congratulated.
The other elves followed suit: "Happy coming of age, King."
"King, you must always be happy from now on."
"Happy coming of age, King..."
"This thing smells like nectar. Is it edible?" Egger moved his nose in front of the cake.
"The one on top should be the king. It looks so good, Egg, you just want to eat it." said another elf.
"But it smells so good." Gail said, looking at the cake.
"Elves cannot touch human cakes," the Irish priest said. "Elves can only eat vegetarian food. It seems that there is meat in the cake. Eating it will make the body very uncomfortable."
"It's beautiful even if you just look at it." said an elf.
"There are meat and fish in human cakes, but I replaced them with fruits, so it's okay to eat some." Lin Su looked at the Elf King who looked a little sorry and said, "Tangtang, you can share the cake with everyone."
"Oh! Really?" Tang's eyes lit up. He took the cake from Lin Su and said to the elves gathered around him, "Let's all taste it together."
"Great! Priest Ivy is so powerful!" an elf cheered.
“Great!”
There were many elves, but the cake was not particularly big. Tang cut it carefully. He gave the first piece to Lin Su, the second piece to the Irish priest, and divided the rest into many pieces for the elves to taste. He only kept the beautiful little man for himself. Under the gaze of the elves, Tang was reluctant to eat it.
"Come on, open your mouth." Lin Su said.
Tang subconsciously opened his mouth and was stuffed with a mouthful of sweet taste. His eyes narrowed because of the sweet taste: "The cake made by Lin is delicious, it's... really delicious."
"Then please ask Tangtang to help me finish the rest." Lin Su handed him the rest and said, "You can keep your portion."
"Ah, but Lin is gone." Tang shook his head and refused.
"I tried everything when I left the Elf Forest, and I'm tired of this. Now that I've tried it, I can't eat the rest." Lin Su said with a smile.
"Ah, Lin doesn't want to eat anymore. I can help you then." Tang showed a happy expression and took the piece of cake with a big smile. "Am I really nice?"
"Yes, Tangtang is very good." Lin Su scratched his nose.
The elves obviously liked the taste after tasting it. They praised it highly and asked Lin Su how to make it.
"The main ingredients are flour, which needs to be ground into powder from wheat... The original eggs can be replaced with tofu, and tofu requires soybeans, and the amount must be controlled. I can write it out later for you to try." Lin Su said.
"Thank you, Priest Ivy." An elf said gratefully.
"It sounds so complicated. Humans are so amazing that they can make such complicated things." said another elf.
"The king is the happiest. Priest Ivy specially prepared such delicious food for the king's coming of age." Gale said with a smile.
The elves were discussing among themselves, and some suggested going to find wheat right away. This suggestion was approved by some elves, and even the two elves who had just tasted the cake said that they also wanted to make cakes.
"I want to go too." Tang couldn't help but stand up.
"Yeah." Jonas landed on his shoulder and made a move to start.
A bunch of elves were about to set off. Tang pulled Lin Su's shoulder and said, "Lin, do you want to go with us?"
They were planning to have a blast exploring the entire Elf Forest, and maybe even have some late-night adventures. Lin Su didn't want to disturb their friends' interest: "Just go by yourselves. Be careful when you look for it. It's different now than before. Don't get scratched by branches or anything else."
"Okay!" Tang didn't insist on him going. "Then I'll go and bring you the best wheat."
"Yeah." Lin Su nodded.
A group of elves dispersed in twos and threes. The remaining elves were relatively calm. The Irish priest smiled and said, "They are really energetic."
"Don't act like you're old, Irish priest. We're obviously calm and composed," said one of the remaining elves. "Right, Patrick."
"Hmm..." Patrick responded, but his eyes fell on Lin Su.
He had a strong feeling in his heart that he should tell him his feelings, otherwise he always felt that he would never have the chance to say it again.
Priest Ivy was so kind to the king. When they danced together and gave him cake, the other elves thought that was the affection of a godfather, but he always felt that it was not.
The elves sitting by the campfire were chatting. As the night grew darker, the light of the stars in the sky seemed to cover up the light of the fire in front of them. In the distance, they seemed to hear the cheers of the elves who were looking for wheat.
"Priest Ivy, could you come with me for a moment? I have something to tell you." Patrick clenched his fingers and stood up suddenly, saying under the subconscious gaze of all the elves, "It's very important."
Once you say something in front of so many elves, there is no reason to back down.
