Chapter 136 Origin
Melada was overwhelmed.
He didn't understand. He just went out to patrol the territory, so why was he suddenly harassed by a human boy?
Especially this black-haired boy with a round face like a cub, who looked at me coldly and insisted that I was his partner.
…
"Apologize to me! I'm really angry!" Mei Yang followed behind Melida, chattering non-stop.
Melada: “…”
Melida really wanted to cover her ears, but she was an elf, and the earlobes of elves were very long, so she couldn't cover them with her palms.
"How could you do this?" Mei Yang continued to scold, "If you had been even a little off, I would have been dead!"
After a long silence, Melada reluctantly explained, "It won't go off. My aim is very steady."
"You mean you scratched my face on purpose?" Mei Yang gasped.
Melada: “…”
After hearing Mei Yang's roar that could scare birds and beasts to death, Melida jumped off the moose immediately.
Melada was certain she was seeing this strange human boy—she had thought he was a cub, but the boy, named Meiyang, said he was already a full-grown man—and she had no idea what race this stranger was, even before Meiyang raised his head and released his arrow.
But Mei Yang actually knew his name, and even said, even said he was his husband...
Melida had no idea what was going on. It was just an ordinary day, just like yesterday, the day before yesterday, and the day before yesterday. How could she encounter such a strange thing?
"Who are you?" Melida asked. "How do you know my name? Why do you say you are my husband?"
Mei Yang realized at that time that he had changed again, and the Melada in front of him didn't recognize him.
But with the experience from last time, he was very skilled at fooling people this time.
He ignored Melada's look of keeping strangers away, ran up to the people, and introduced himself:
"My name is Mei Yang."
"I know your name because we have a relationship."
"I am your husband, and we have been married for a long time."
"Do I look gullible?" Melida asked expressionlessly.
Mei Yang took a deep breath and spoke rapidly, "I'll tell you the details, listen carefully: My name is Mei Yang. Hundreds or thousands of years from now, we were introduced by the Mother Tree, and we fell in love and got married. I'm your destined partner, you love me, I love you, and we're madly in love with each other. But there's definitely something wrong with me. I've time-traveled—meaning I'm meeting you who's over three thousand years old. Every time we're together, I disappear and reappear beside you in another time and space. This is the fourth time this has happened. In short, we're locked in."
Because Mei Yang's eyes looked particularly determined and he didn't seem to be crazy or anything like that, Melida's first reaction was to cast an exorcism spell on Mei Yang.
No response.
Thinking of the information revealed in Mei Yang's words, although Melada felt it was ridiculous, she still tried to chant the magic and checked it again - there really was some remnant of time magic.
"Are you listening to me?" Mei Yang asked.
"Yes. Got it." Melida sighed.
She actually began to believe what the human boy said. Even though some of the words were not clear to her, Melada generally understood what he was talking about the relationship between the two.
Even though she had never met him before, he could call out her name so accurately, with a familiar tone, and there were indeed traces of magic left on her body.
Is he really my partner?
Melida didn't know what to say for a moment, so she turned around and walked back.
Sure enough, Mei Yang followed consciously.
Still chattering behind him.
Mei Yang's complaints were so frequent that Melada listened for a long time but still couldn't understand what he was worried about. She simply let it go in one ear and out the other, filtering it all out.
"Hey! Are you listening to me?" Mei Yang became even angrier when he saw that he was unmoved and just looking around.
Melida suddenly turned around at this moment.
He stared at Mei Yang for a few seconds, said nothing, and then jumped onto the deer swiftly.
Then he bent down and said, "Give me your hand."
Mei Yang subconsciously raised his hand, and then was pulled onto the deer's back.
He exclaimed softly, and heard an impatient click from behind him. He couldn't help but look up, and Melida happened to be looking down at him.
"How old are you now?" After being interrupted, Mei Yang had forgotten what made him angry before, and suddenly asked without thinking.
"I think he's a few decades old, I forgot, but he's older than you anyway," Melida replied.
No wonder, according to the age of elves, Melida is just a teenager now.
Mei Yang was shocked that he could wear it for so long at one time.
There were also some surprises – the teenage Melida had many years more of an aura than later generations.
His facial features became sharper, his eyes were no longer indifferent, but full of novelty and curiosity, and he would even pout at her when he was impatient.
Such a fresh and wonderful feeling.
The only thing that remains unchanged is the scent of plants and trees that envelops your entire body when you are in close contact.
Mei Yang found it very interesting, and he also liked Melida of this era.
The forest was very hot at the turn of spring and summer. Mei Yang was wearing thick winter clothes and soon felt too hot.
He sat in front of Melida and began to take off his clothes without any hesitation.
I took off my coat and sweater and hung them on the moose's antlers; my pants were difficult to take off, so I endured it... No, I couldn't endure it, so I took them off, since my top just covered my thighs; my boots were too stuffy, so I took them off and went barefoot.
Mei Yang was not polite at all and took off all his equipment and hung it on the moose's antlers.
"Was it winter when you...you were with me later?" Melida asked.
"Yeah." Mei Yang replied, "It was too sudden - half an hour ago, you and I were watching fireworks in the snow."
Mei Yang briefly recounted what had happened before.
His narration was fluent and didn't sound like he was making it up. Melida couldn't help but be more convinced by what he had said before.
"By the way, how old is Rumi now?" Mei Yang patted the moose's neck and asked.
"Rumi? It's not called Rumi, it's called Cuicui." Melida paused and added, "Perhaps the Rumi you know hasn't been born yet. In fact, I'm planning to find a partner for Cuicui."
He noticed Mei Yang's momentary stiffness and almost immediately understood what was going on.
After thousands of years, he must have felt a huge sense of loss, right?
"Oh, is that so? Then I'll help you look for it later." Mei Yang was originally very disappointed, but after hearing the last sentence, he cheered up again.
He comforted himself, never mind, at least this time the situation was better than the last time, and he met the younger version of Daddy right away.
“Well, perhaps we can all witness the birth of the Rumi you spoke of,” Melida agreed.
This albino moose named Cuicui was much gentler than Rumi that Mei Yang knew. It walked slowly, as if it was intentionally taking the two of them for an aimless stroll in the forest. It would stop to eat berries when passing by the grass, and eat leaves when passing by the short trees.
If there happened to be fruits on the tree, it would shake its big head and knock a few down for Melida to collect.
Seeing that Mei Yang had a suitable container, Melada asked him to borrow it to pack the fruit. After packing, she put all the items into the net bag hanging on the side of the moose.
Mei Yang didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that the forest a thousand years ago was too quiet.
Not only did we not encounter any animals along the way, we hardly heard any birds singing or insects chirping.
It was late at night before Mei Yang came through. His biological clock had rung and he felt sleepy. Without thinking, he turned over on the moose's back, put his arms around Melida's waist, and snuggled into her arms.
"What are you doing?" Melida was startled.
It was the first time he was hugged by someone, and the person held his waist and buried his face in his chest.
"I'm sleepy. Take a nap. Don't act like an old antique, okay? It's normal for partners to hug each other... By the way, remember to call me for dinner." Mei Yang muttered.
He actually heard Melida's somewhat disordered breathing, but he was too lazy to care.
If he looked up at this moment, he would see the shy pink face of the teenage Melida.
But he was still immersed in the bad mood of traveling through time again and missed a rare opportunity.
Melada just watched Mei Yang fall asleep on him in seconds.
Is he so confident in me?
…
When Melada woke him up, it was still bright outside. Mei Yang concluded that he had traveled through time in the morning and it was noon now.
Mei Yang was a little confused after waking up before he realized the current situation. He noticed Melida's hesitant expression when she looked at him, and at the same time felt the coldness at the corners of his lips and chin.
Mei Yang wiped his mouth and said seriously, "Shh, don't say it. I know it would be rude if you said it out loud."
Melada: “…”
It seems that you are aware of your problem of drooling when you sleep.
Melida didn't say anything, but he felt a little uncomfortable with the fabric sticking to his skin, so he subconsciously tugged at the collar to loosen his robe a little.
Mei Yang got a good deal, and he took a few more glances at his young chest muscles.
After being carried off the deer by Melida, Mei Yang noticed that the place where the Elf King brought him was not the mother tree, but a cave under the waterfall.
It was not directly below the waterfall, but on the rock wall on the side. However, Mei Yang felt his old cold legs coming back at the first sight.
"Do you live here?" Mei Yang asked, "Where is the Elf Mother Tree? Where is your tribe?"
"What are you talking about? I've always lived here." Melida was taking something off the moose's harness. "I don't know what you're talking about. Maybe it's something I won't own until much later."
He spoke very easily and naturally, without any unnecessary curiosity, as if he didn't care much about those things and was not in a hurry to own them.
"But, but..." Mei Yang was anxious and panicked, "How could this happen? I remember you said that all elves were born from the Elf Mother Tree, so you should be the same. If there is no Elf Mother Tree, Melida, where did you come from? You are the Elf King!"
"I also want to know where I came from." Melida said as she moved things into the cave.
The surroundings were extremely quiet. Apart from the sound of rushing water from the waterfall, Mei Yang could no longer hear any of the vibrant sounds that nature should have.
It’s as if a complete picture has had its life-giving layer deliberately removed.
Melida leaned against the cave entrance, quietly looking at Mei Yang, and suddenly smiled: "You know, I know you are a human, but in the past ten years, you are actually the second human I have seen."
