Chapter Twenty-Nine: Stupid Calrest [Reader: The Tip of the Dreamy Step]
"I'm sorry, I can't tell you ......," Calrest shook his head as he lay on his hospital bed.
“……”
"What are you doing, don't look at me like that, I really can't tell you!"
Calrest today realized what it means to be killed by the eyes, and he really understood the danger of Leolu.
This is really more painful than being forced to take medicine by Kalian!!
However, Leolu was just joking, and he didn't really mean to embarrass Calest, but he accidentally went overboard.
"Hmm~ Okay, since that's your family's business, I don't bother to ask. Is it okay to get straight to the point? Enough nonsense. ”
After all, that ruin was a secret of the Calrest family, and Leolu only asked about it with a fluke mentality, and even if he didn't get the result, he wasn't too disappointed.
"Uh...... It's obvious that you are the one who opened the topic......"
Calrest felt a feeling she had never felt before, but if Kahlene was here now, she would definitely tell Calrest that this feeling was called grievance.
Reflecting on this, Calrest continued: "It's just a myth within our family, and I've only learned it from the literature left by our predecessors...... But one thing I'm sure of is that this stone doesn't come directly from the Phoenix King!"
Leolu couldn't ignore this when he heard this, and quickly turned around and asked, "How do you say this?"
Calrest smirked, "That tribe has been extinct a long time ago as far as I know, but why didn't the Phoenix King recover this stone?"
"Perhaps...... I just don't know...... Something like that?" Leolu guessed.
But Calrest quickly shook his head and rejected Leolu's idea: "This is impossible, the Phoenix King has been paying attention to humans and elves all the time, from ancient times to the present, no elves or humans can hide their whereabouts in front of the Phoenix King." ”
"But...... How do you know that?"
"Actually, before our family declined, a man who claimed to be Minajun visited. Although I think this person has never been serious, and his speech is a little out of tune, but he really has a lot of research on these legends, and I have also compared his words with the ancient books handed down in the family, he is really a powerful person!"
Leo Lu learned another important piece of information, because of the mystery of the Phoenix King, Leo Lu was also very curious, if the conditions allowed, he also wanted to have a good chat with this Minajun.
"This stone hides great power, but it does not belong to the Phoenix King...... So even if I don't say believe in your brain, you can understand what it represents, right?"
Leolu nodded. Anyone can understand such a simple truth, since there is such a stone, then there must be an elf as powerful as the Phoenix King, or even stronger.
"But you've said so much, what exactly is the power of that stone?"
Once you know the origin of the stone, the rest is the function of the stone.
Calrest smiled mysteriously: "I also said before that this stone can only be used by elves, and my elves have let Karen take care of them, so ......"
The corner of Leolu's eyes twitched: "So...... You want me to be a guinea pig?"
"At your color, you're a blue mouse at best. And you're not a rat-type elf, are you?"
Leo Lu raised his forehead, it seems that this world has not been cruel enough to use living things for experiments, so naturally there is no such thing as a guinea pig.
"Uh...... Whatever he cares about a guinea pig or a blue mouse, I won't do it anyway!"
Calrest paused: "Why, didn't you propose to see it?"
Leolu shook his head vigorously, "I do want to know what that stone is for, but if it's me, I'm going to refuse!"
Now the scene is very embarrassing. Calrest urgently needs someone to come to the rescue, anyone can do it. But things didn't go as smoothly as he thought.
Karen is out and won't be back for two days, he can't call a doctor or a nurse for nothing, and Kazuki may have come with Leolu, but there's nothing he can do if he doesn't show up at Calest.
Calrest, who had originally planned to show Leo Lu how powerful their family really was, didn't expect Leo Lu to be so unappreciative that he wouldn't even give him a step.
Castest, in annoyance, reached over and grabbed Leolu's tail with his back to him.
"Hey...... Hey, what are you doing!"
Sensing something strange coming from his tail, Leolu was also panicked and ready to turn around.
But before Leolu could make a move, he found that the whole world had turned upside down.
"Calest, put me down!"
Calrest didn't know when he sat up again, and carried him upside down. Leolu couldn't resist, and if he accidentally injured him as a patient, maybe his fellow Ikki would also suffer.
But Calrest shook his head with his eyes closed.
"Don't worry, I'm just going to show you how it works!!"
Calrest's face seemed to be about to twist and deform in Leolu's eyes when he turned upside down.
Ignoring Leolu's struggles, Calrest reached under his pillow with his other hand and took out the stone.
"Don't worry, I vouch for our family's reputation, there will be no problem!"
"Your reputation, what does your family's reputation matter to me, put me down quickly!"
Calrest raised the stone in his hand as if he hadn't heard, and approached Leo Road.
Soon, Calrest let the stone touch Leolu, and although it was only Leolu's outstretched claws as a block, it was indeed a part of his body.
Leolu just hoped that nothing would happen to the stone as he had been in contact with him on the Ice Isle.
But it backfired, and after a few seconds of contact with Leolu's claws, the stone suddenly glowed with gold.
A powerful stream of energy began to flow into Leolu's body along Leolu's claws that were in direct contact with the stone.
"Very well, stay calm now, and you'll know in no time how right I am doing!"
Leo Lu had no choice but to hope that things would turn out exactly as Caust said.
However, after a large amount of energy flowed into Leolu's body, Calrest felt strange.
"That's not right...... It stands to reason that it should be fine, why hasn't it stopped yet?"
Leolu's ears keenly caught this sentence, so he hurriedly asked, "What the hell will happen here?"
Carest didn't intend to continue to hide it, and after a pause, he said: "This stone can improve the ability of the elves in a short period of time, and you also feel the influx of power, right? That's the proof that it's taking effect, but it stands to reason that it should only take about ten seconds to stop, and you will also get a temporary strong power, but why? Why is it still going on?"
"Then why don't you stop first and use it when you figure it out!!"
Calrest smiled helplessly: "I'm sorry, if I stop now, I don't know what will happen, so I'd better wait for it to end." “
"Then why did you do this just now!!"
Leo Lu roared at Calest.
If you want to describe it, the stone is more like a power source, and Leolo is a charging battery, but the capacity of this battery seems to be much larger than Carest's perception, and the process continues for more than two minutes without stopping.
"I'm sorry, Leolu, but I was too impulsive...... I just want to show you and don't take into account your feelings...... I'm really sorry. ”
Calrest finally realized how stupid he had been, but it was too late to apologize.
"It's so useful to say this, if something really goes wrong, I will never spare you!!"
Leolu didn't intend to forgive Calrest, instead, he was very angry.
The whole process lasted for nearly ten minutes or so, and the light of the stone finally dissipated. Calrest and Leopath both lay down on their beds with a sigh of relief.
"Look...... Look, I said you'd be fine! Now you feel very powerful!"
Leolu sat up at his suggestion, but he didn't feel that Calrest was "reinforced" by what he said.
"No, what the hell did you do!"
Leolu couldn't wait to grab Calrest by the collar and punch him twice in the face.
Calrest was also very surprised: "No, it can't be...... Wait, Leo Road, you ...... It's glowing!"
Leolu immediately looked at his body, and sure enough, his whole body began to glow white, and it was slowly getting brighter and brighter.
"Calrest, this ...... What's going on?!"
Leo Lu was visibly startled by what he saw, and panicked to Calrest for help.
"Leo Road...... If I'm not wrong...... You may want to ......"
Calrest was also like a child who had made a big mistake, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, but at the moment he finished speaking, Leolu felt real despair.
"You may be going to evolve ......"
