The 'new half-elf' body that Yu Ling reshaped using her own leaves and the energy of the original owner's body was made up of three identical fruits. When the 'fruits' ripened and fell to the ground, the elves born naturally became identical triplets.
Keo regained a clean and new body, free from any bad experiences and the unpleasant polluting energy within him. Even some scenes from his memories that Yu Ling found a bit excessive when watching the story were blocked and deleted by the Sacred Tree of Elves.
These bad things are all within the scope of the Holy Tree of Spirits' purification. Kaio only vaguely remembers that he didn't have a good life in the past, and he has forgotten the details of what happened, but he remembers his time with Yu Ling very clearly.
Ah! He actually 'likes' me so much! I've been so awful to him, and this noble prince not only doesn't hold a grudge but also helped me regain my life. I must follow him to the death!!!
Of course, all of the above were just Keo's inner thoughts. In reality, in his new life in the Elf Kingdom, he had no idea how to get along normally with Yu Ling, who had already laid her cards on the table.
And what's most infuriating is...
His Highness seemed to have split into two elves.
One is as aloof and noble as he remembered, while the other wants to eat, drink, play, and do everything. However, because he prefers the latter (Yu Ling), he actually feels intensely jealous of the former.
I'm jealous.
Q: Whom are you jealous of?
A: The person he likes...
Isn't that hilarious?!
Kaio had no other choice. The three elves that looked exactly alike should have received the same treatment, but he and the original owner of the two had a 'competition for favor' in front of Yu Ling. They both wanted to be Yu Ling's helpers when organizing games, and preferably say more words.
The original owner was furious. What was wrong with him playing by himself? Why did someone else have to steal his spirit?
As the Elf Prince himself, he hadn't severely punished this dark elf who had almost caused great damage to the Elf Kingdom, so why was this elf so eager to get close to him?
Half-elf Yuling: I don't want to get involved, thank you.
He was indeed somewhat interested in the original owner's beauty, but now that beauty had diminished by a third. Although it still far surpassed that of other elves, it was no longer as 'beautiful as before, making people want to sleep'.
I don't want to get too close to anyone. Wouldn't it be better if we just stayed ordinary friends?
Yu Ling wanted to escape, so after pausing for a while with the two elves, she secretly slipped away. Anyway, apart from the three of them, the other elves couldn't tell which of the three 'princes' was which, so it was easy for her to perfectly hide.
His disappearance was ultimately exposed when Yu Ling missed too many of the elves' games, and it was then discovered that one of the three princes seemed to be missing.
"Your Highness, it seems that one-third of you is missing!"
Kaio and the original owner quickly received the news and began a race to find Yu Ling.
In the end, it was Kaio who found Yu Ling, who was abusing her power in the human world, in the territory of a certain Earl.
—When history was changed, the world count had just been born. Due to his skills, he had an innate admiration for Yu Ling, so he kept himself pure and became a topic of conversation among people in the human world.
Yu Ling didn't intend to completely brainwash him into becoming her puppet, but his fragile soul was eventually drawn to him, resembling a grown-up. He won Yu Ling's heart in both personality and other aspects.
Wow, these humans are surprisingly savvy!
Of course, Yu Ling had no other thoughts about him. He was almost gradually taking on her shape, so there was no need to touch him at all!
He was just enjoying his monotonous life with his inseparable henchman, but little did he expect that after only a few years of carefree living, he would be found by Kaio and the original owner of this body.
In the magnificent hall, amidst the joyous singing and dancing of the ball, two 'pseudo-human' elves with the same appearance as Yu Ling appeared, immediately attracting the attention of everyone present.
Earl Hao bravely stepped forward to cover for Yu Ling, allowing the three elves to reunite in the prepared rest room.
"Why do you keep coming to see me?"
Once out of sight of everyone, Yu Ling felt truly helpless. He had no intention of further provoking the two elves, so perhaps there should be some distance between friends!
However, both Kaio and the original owner of the body were people with abnormal lives. One was humble to the point of being insignificant, while the other was supported like a star. They didn't understand how to get along with each other on an equal footing, and they didn't understand Yu Ling's avoidance at all.
However, the original owner, being the most naive and kind-hearted, still held onto the idea of not understanding but supporting everything she did, and simply left after giving Yu Ling a few more blessings.
And Keo...
He had the courage to come, but seeing that count was still the same familiar figure in his memory, a sense of rejection and nausea welled up from the depths of his soul, making him feel disgusted all over.
Yu Ling was somewhat surprised to see that the Earl actually had a restraining effect on Kaio. However, he was not a bad person after all and did not want to provoke Kaio with that kind of experience. He simply watched coldly, pretending not to notice, and let the other party back down.
However, despite all his precautions, he still couldn't keep out the most innocent and harmless elf prince.
Despite having three identical, copied faces, the Elf Prince was incredibly clever. With the help of the Sacred Tree, he shed his new half-elf body and deliberately went out with his original soul, taking spontaneous 'trips' with Yu Ling every now and then.
At first, Yu Ling was dismissive and still treated the original owner as an ordinary friend.
As time went by, the Elf Prince began to "go astray" in the human world. His open-mindedness, coupled with his soul state visible only to Yu Ling, allowed certain ulterior motives to slowly fester...
Finally—Yu Ling hugged the elf beside her and exclaimed: It's so delicious!
Under Yu Ling's gentle touch, her stunning beauty became even more captivating, yet she retained a sense of sanctity, truly a pinnacle of fairytale beauty, far surpassing any prince, princess, or hero.
However, after the original owner 'won the heart of the beauty', he was still a little guilty.
He used the sacred tree of elves as a cover to get rid of the dark elf so that he could spend time with Yu Ling every day. What if that annoying guy who loves to steal him back came back?
However, every time Yu Ling came to his side, he would ruthlessly forget about this matter...
Yu Ling: "Want more?"
Elf Prince: "Here I am!!!"
Why worry so much about things that haven't even happened yet? With such a beautiful woman by your side, enjoy life while you can!
