Chapter 84 Wall-E (Part 5)
With Anna's help, Gervis finished dressing and washing, and could not wait to come to the study. He saw the golden elf insect staring around with its big round eyes. When it saw Gervis entering from the study door, its eyes immediately lit up, and it tilted its little head and looked at Gervis affectionately with a very anthropomorphic expression.
Seeing the golden elf worm in this state, Gervis laughed, quickened his pace and came to the front of the little guy, then stretched out his palm in front of him.
When the golden elf worm saw Gervis's palm in front of it, it moved its fat body without any hesitation and climbed onto Gervis's palm clumsily and slowly, which made Gervis and Anna behind him laugh.
"Little guy, I didn't expect you to finish the amber fragments so quickly."
After the golden elf bug crawled onto his palm, Gervis raised his palm in front of his eyes, stroked the little guy's head with his other hand, and spoke to it with a smile.
Generally speaking, it takes two days for an elf worm to come out of an amber crystal and eat, but there is a slight fluctuation. The eating speed of the elf worm and the size of the amber can affect the eating time.
"squeak!"
Lying in Gervis's palm, the golden elf worm was also very happy. When it heard Gervis talking to it, it immediately squeaked in response.
"Now I'm going to give you a name. Let me think about what I should name you."
Gervis immediately began to think in his mind about a name for his second elf worm.
"How about I call you Wall-E?"
Suddenly, Gervis had an idea. Betty was royal blue, so Gervis felt that Betty should be more feminine, and the golden elf worm in front of him must be more masculine. After all, no girl would be so vulgar as to dress herself in golden clothes. And it ate so fast, it was definitely a gluttonous elf worm. Of course, elf worms had no gender distinction, this was just Gervis's own imagination.
"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!"
Of course the golden elf bug had no objection and squeaked to express its happiness.
"Then it is happily decided, Wall-E, now come and meet your sister."
As he spoke, Gervis took Betty's jade box with his other hand and opened it. Betty might have heard the presence of another elf bug and had woken up. Her big round eyes were wide open, and she was looking out fiercely with her cheeks puffed up.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak…”
When Betty saw Wall-E in Gervis's hand, she immediately became like a cat with its fur standing on end. She started squeaking and squeaked to express her dissatisfaction, complaining why Gervis was playing with this ugly golden elf insect instead of herself.
"Haha, Betty, Wall-E was just born yesterday. You have to be more friendly. You are Wall-E's sister now."
Gervis sensed Betty's dissatisfaction in his heart, and he didn't expect that the little guy would be jealous, so he grabbed Betty with his other hand and placed both elf insects on his palm, thinking that this would be able to calm Betty's dissatisfaction.
"squeak!"
When Wall-E saw Gervis bringing Betty in front of him, he flinched and was a little scared, especially since he heard Betty's squeaking just now, so he called out softly to say hello.
"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!"
But Betty's dissatisfaction was obviously not appeased. Betty was no longer as well-behaved as usual. She turned her head away and ignored Wall-E's greeting, squeaking to show that she didn't want to pay attention to Wall-E.
Seeing this scene, Gervis was speechless. It turned out that the elf insects also had such personalities. He had never discovered it before. Helplessly, Gervis could only put Betty back into the jade box.
After putting Betty down, Gervais took out a brand new jade box from the cabinet next to him. This jade box was bought by Laurie from Winterfell. The jade box was not expensive, as Laurie bought 5 at once. However, the rose powder was expensive, as Laurie only bought one pack. Gervais planned to use it for a while and then buy more when he had more money.
"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!" Betty was put back into the jade box by Gervis. She was a little angry and started to scream again. Gervis had no choice. This little thing was so competitive that he couldn't hit it. He could only turn around and say to Anna: "Anna, Betty is in your hands. I'll take Wall-E downstairs first."
"Okay, sir, go ahead and don't worry. I'll leave Betty to me!"
Anna was already melted by the cute looks of the two elf bugs. Anna played with Betty for a while every day recently, so Betty also liked Anna as a friend very much. Anna was very confident that she could coax the angry Betty.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Anna!"
Hearing Anna so confident, Gervis felt relieved. It was not that he was fickle and didn't want to take Betty with him. It was just that he wanted to take Wall-E to open up space, not to play. If he took Betty with him, Gervis was afraid that Wall-E would be scared and accidentally create a coal mine. By then, he would not even have time to cry, although the elf bugs did not care about these when opening up space.
But Gervis felt that people need to be in the best condition when doing things, and the elf insects certainly need to be in the best condition too. Gervis took some rose powder and put it in the small drawer under the jade box, preparing to feed Wall-E a meal before letting it work.
"Good morning, sir!"
When Gervis came downstairs, Yura was standing at the door of the restaurant. When he saw Gervis coming, he immediately bowed to him respectfully.
"Well, good morning!" Gervis also knew about Yura and Anna's affairs. He was very kind to this maid who could truly care about her friends.
When they walked into the restaurant, all kinds of delicious food were already placed on the table. Gervis remembered that Nashen had not arrived yet, so he told Yura, "Yula, go call Lord Nashen!"
"Yes, sir!"
Soon, Na Shen came to the restaurant under the guidance of Yura. He looked energetic and obviously had a good rest last night.
"Master Gervis, I didn't expect you to be here earlier than me!"
"Haha, Lord Nashen, come and sit down, I just got up too!"
"Hey, Master Gervis, are there elf bugs in here?"
Na Shen came to the dining table and sat down directly without being polite to Gervis. After he sat down, he found that there was a jade box next to Gervis.
Although Nashen had no elf worms, he had seen pigs run even if he had not eaten pork. In Gandalf's castle, he had seen servants bring out elf worms for them to play with more than once.
"Yes, Lord Nashen. I picked it up myself when I was inspecting the territory a few days ago. I just completed the signing of the contract today, and I plan to let it open up space later."
Gervis smiled and nodded to Nashen, then opened the jade box naturally, showed Wall-E to Nashen, and scooped a spoonful of rose powder into the jade box.
"Oh my God, it's actually a golden elf bug, or did you pick it up yourself? It seems that you are really a person surrounded by the glory of a knight."
Na Shen's shock was not false at all. The golden elf bug was a rare thing. Even the worst coal mine would have a steady stream of income, but the income was just a little less. Moreover, the amber of the elf bug was picked up by Gervis. How lucky did one have to be to pick up an elf bug and then get a mutated elf bug.
Baron Gandalf only owns 5 elf bugs, 4 ordinary green elf bugs, and only one royal blue elf bug, which he bought at a huge price.
"Master Gervis, your good fortune is really enviable!"
Na Shen came back to his senses from his shock and started laughing and joking.
"Hahaha, Lord Nashen, my father said the same thing to me!"
