Elves: My Fantasy World

"She is really pitiful... Such a child... I don't know why she drifted here from the tropical four islands... She was found by the staff of the nature reserve in Baichuan City a few days ago... and we took her back."

"During these few days, she didn't eat anything...she only drank a little water...her body became weaker and weaker. But every day, besides humming songs, she would just hold an apple and stare blankly."

"A few days ago, we asked Mr. Mao Xinyan from Dr. Zhuang's research institute to check on her condition... In the end, we could only conclude that she was suffering from 'lovesickness'... I think... she might be missing her trainers and family in the Tropical Four Islands..."

"Tangtang? (Huh?)"

The vine snake turned its head to look at the vine whip that was intertwined with Yu Jue's hand...

His hands... were shaking...even the whip loosened.

"We employees are all worried about her... but there's really nothing we can do... I'm afraid that soon, she will... um? Little brother?"

Chen Xi talked for a while before noticing that Shen Yu had stopped talking. When he looked at him again, he was already standing there in a daze... staring blankly ahead.

"Snapped!"

"Brother Yu!"

"Candy!"

Shen Yu slapped himself hard, then squatted down, covered his eyes with one hand, and bit his lips tightly...

I'm such a fucking idiot!

That apple fruit... wasn't it the four I gave her? Didn't she have that one left? Didn't I hear about this from Dr. Zhuang?

Yeah... Who the hell would hold an apple and not want to eat it, while staring at it in a daze?

Lovesick? Would she think about the trainer who didn't even feel a bit attached to her when he abandoned her?

I should have taken her home at that time... What the hell was the point of holding on!

"Brother Yu! You..."

Shen Yaming was startled and quickly squatted down to support Shen Yu...

Her hand paused.

Doesn’t my brother work in that nature reserve?

"Little brother, you..."

Chen Xi stopped talking halfway...

She found it... maybe she found the cause of the sea lion's illness...

For a moment, no one spoke.

"Do you want to... meet her?"

Soon, Chen Xi took the initiative to speak... She felt that if she waited for the boy in front of her to speak, she would probably have to wait until she got off work.

"Feel sorry……"

Chen Xi heard that his voice was a little hoarse.

Shen Yu took a deep breath, stood up, and wiped his eyes with the back of his hand.

"I think... I should be able to get her to eat obediently."

……

The room was warm... as warm as the climate in the Tropical Four Islands could get.

From time to time, there is the sound of waves... and splashes of water, splashing from the pool to the shore.

A little guy with a blue body and a red nose was half lying on the shore, humming a staccato melody from his throat, his head swaying with the melody. In front of his chest was a small green apple - one of the energy-rich tree fruits that almost never rots - the wild apple.

The little guy slowly opened his eyes and squinted at the fruit in his arms...

I can’t eat it... He gave it to me... What if I forgot about him?

The sea lion hugged the apple tightly, then raised its head and looked at the simulated blue sky.

Hmm... I'm obviously not hungry... why do I feel so weak?

Why...why?

Her eyes slowly closed again.

The hatch door opened with a "ci——" sound. She knew that it was the person who brought her food every day who came to see her again to see if she had any more food...

She ignored it and fell asleep, hearing the sound of human conversation.

"She hasn't eaten anything hard for a long time. Let her eat something that's easier to digest first..."

"There may be some milk in the big cans in the dining car. Please wait a moment. I'll go get it..."

She fell asleep.

In the dream... She opened her eyes dazedly and felt like she was back to the morning when she met him...

She was held in his arms... warm. Much warmer than the surrounding environment. A bottle was brought to her lips.

She looked up.

"I dreamed about you again~"

The long-lost feeling of hunger suddenly came up, and she couldn't help but hold the bottle and start drinking.

After the whole bottle was empty, she closed her eyes again, leaned into someone's arms and snored... and smacked her lips twice.

Her world fell into silence again...

Maybe she was having a real dream again... a dream about him.

……

"You're really eating on your own initiative..."

Chen Xi was even more certain that this boy named Shen Yu was the cause of the sea lion's illness...

Shen Yu said nothing during the whole process. He just lowered his eyelids and looked at the little guy in his arms...

My face has become thinner... Am I really worth your missing so much...

"Feel sorry……"

Only when he heard even snoring in his arms did he speak softly and try to get the sea lion into a comfortable position.

"Brother Yu...did you find him in the reserve?"

Shen Yaming leaned close to Shen Yu's ear... Ever since her brother got a stable job a few years ago, she rarely saw him show this kind of expression...

The clearest memory... when he showed this expression... was in that jungle...

Shen Yu nodded.

"Yes. When I found her, she was entangled in the water plants in the lake. After I rescued her, she explained to me for a long time, and I realized that she was abandoned by her former trainer. I thought at the time... maybe she would not trust humans anymore... Now it seems... I was such a fool at the time..."

The little one in my arms sleeps sweetly and peacefully, as if he is having a sweet dream...

After hearing what Shen Yu said, Shen Yaming didn't say anything else, but there was a hint of tenderness between her eyebrows.

It's just... Teng Teng Snake pouted, hugged her chest and sat on the side, not knowing what she was upset about, and her little feet kept kicking the water...

hateful!

o(≧口≦)o!

Why is that little sea lion so lucky! Otherwise, I must be the one being hugged now!

"Little brother...you..."

"Ah... I'm so sorry... I'll talk to her properly when she wakes up... This situation won't happen again..."

"No, no, no!" Chen Xi waved his hands quickly and said, "What I want to say is that you can actually take this ball-shaped sea lion away..."

"Take him away?" Shen Yu tilted his head, "Is this still possible? Isn't this against the rules?"

"It's against the rules, but this is what our branch director meant..." Chen Xi explained carefully, "The branch director said that if someone can make this sea lion behave, then we can just give it to him... The alliance will also bear part of the cost of raising this elf... At least we can still provide contracting services for his daily food expenses and living environment simulation costs."

Chen Xi showed an expression that showed she understood this decision. "After all, it's much better for this little girl to live with the person she loves than to be tortured or even die here with us..."

Shen Yu looked down at the ball sea lion that was rubbing against him and sniffing his scent... and the apple fruit that she had been holding in her arms. His heart softened, but he still did not agree immediately. He just replied,

"I'll ask her what she thinks later."

"Okay, I'll contact the branch director now."

"It's troublesome."
