Chapter 16: Preparations for the City Capital (I)

After that, there was basically nothing to do with Leolu.

It's up to Kazuki to discuss the relevant matters with Yukino and Kai, and he can't help much if he stays in the house.

Happily, however, Ikki has decided to leave for Joto, and Leo is glad that he can travel with such an incredible child again.

I don't know how much Ikki has changed Leo Road, but as long as you stay with this child, a lot of interesting things will always happen, right?

It's a real joy.

When they got home, the sun had sunk below the horizon, and after a long time had passed since they had allowed them to discuss, Leolu looked at the moon and thought it was almost late at night.

But how can the physical fitness of elves be compared to humans? Leo Lu has long been accustomed to staying up late like this. In the past, because he didn't know when he was going to challenge the gym, Leo Lu would adjust to the same schedule as Ikki, but now that there is nothing to do, rest is not so important

He was now in the backyard, with a not very thick stick in his hand, and was just gesturing in the empty yard.

But soon, he shook his head, and threw away the stick, which he had just obtained.

"Sure enough, you still have to develop in the direction that suits you......"

Sighing, Leolu looked at his paws.

The five nimble fingers that I used to use are now three, and it is very difficult to use the tools I used to use before. For example, in the past, when we were humans, we only needed to hold a cup in one hand and pour it into our mouth, but now, one paw cannot grasp a smooth glass at all, and even if you hold it with both paws, you must always be careful not to pour water into your nose...... In short, it is a variety of inconveniences.

This kind of thinking is still alive even in this new world that has lived for so long.

However, he didn't have the luxury of turning back into a human being, and it was impossible anyway, so Leolu had to relax and start focusing on his own changes.

"Elves and humans are fundamentally different species, and even though they have similar characteristics, they are very different in substance...... So you have to translate your previous knowledge into the ...... used by spirits like Leoru It's a bit difficult. ”

The so-called fighting skills are not just a collision of strengths, it focuses more on skills, and uses the strength of the opponent to fight, which is the essence of martial arts.

And the transformation of different power systems is where the real difficulty lies.

The reason is very simple: no matter how strong a human is, if he does not use tools or attack the vital points, the attack given to the opponent will not be very traumatic, so he can chase the opponent at a suitable distance, but the power of the elf is far beyond that of humans, so if you hit the opponent far away with a single blow, although this can cause a lot of damage, but at the same time it also gives the opponent a time to counterattack and breathe, and it is likely to capsize in the gutter.

Leolu had also been troubled by this matter countless times, and he had not found a suitable solution for a long time.

Elf battles are not life-threatening battles, and even elves who have a dispute are unlikely to gamble everything to fight.

This is the default rule that the world has set by itself.

But this means that Leo Road has a long way to go on the road to becoming stronger.

But I can't think of any reason for it, and the results can only be witnessed by future actions.

"Oulu!!【Ahh......h There's no time to slack off!"

It was at this time that Leo Lu suddenly felt a sinking on his shoulders, and he was immediately frightened and shivered.

"Selia, didn't I say don't walk behind me quietly like this, although I know you didn't mean to, but can you call me directly next time?"

Something like this had happened many times, and Selia was already walking softly, and Leolu couldn't sense her, so he was inadvertently frightened.

Selia nodded, apologetic, but when she was done, she grabbed Leolu's paw and began to head inside.

"Aunt Yukino and、Ikki...... Say, "There is something...... To give、Brother。 ”

Entering the house, Leo Lu saw Yukino and Kazuki sitting in the living room chatting, and Hai didn't know where to go, but the other two stood up at the same time after seeing Leo Lu coming.

"Leolu, this is for you!"

Leo Lu was a little curious about what he was going to give him at first, but when he got the scarf that embarrassed him for an unknown number of times, Leo Lu really didn't know what expression he should make to face the two of them.

Yihui also saw Leolu's predicament, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Mom modified that scarf, and it won't be the same as before!"

Leolu didn't think he was a suspicious person, but he was hesitant to try it now or wait until there was no one left.

The scene of being stared at and ridiculed by others has left a deep enough psychological shadow on Leolu.

But at this time, Selia, who doesn't like to talk much, suddenly stood up.

"I ...... I saw it before I got it with my brother...... Very、Good-looking,It's definitely suitable、Brother。 ”

Hearing this, Xue Nai's glasses lit up on the side, and he hugged Selia.

"Oh, Celia is so cute, why don't you come and be my daughter!"

Ikki felt hopeless about his mother, so he rescued Selia, who was already being treated as a doll, and taught his mother by the way.

Leo Lu smiled at the scene, then turned his gaze to the boxy scarf folded on his hand.

It's indispensable anyway...... So be it......'

Amidst the "laughter" of the other three, Leolu slowly wrapped his scarf around his neck.

"Leolu, it's really for you!"

The first to come together was Kazuki, and the second was Yukino, who was very persistent about this kind of thing, and Selia didn't care much about these things, as long as Leolu was in her field of vision.

Leolu looked down and saw that there was no sign of the awkward box in its place, replaced by a hard bulge two or three centimeters long and a metal spiral pattern.

"Mom said that the stone might as well be part of the scarf itself than in a box, and it would look much better. It doesn't seem wrong. ”

After listening to Kazuki's words, Leolu suddenly thought of something, and grabbed Kazuki's clothes and took him aside.

"You didn't tell Yukino about the Shining Stone, did you?"

Yihui shook his head decisively: "If you don't have your consent to this thing, I won't tell anyone!"

Leolu breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, thank you. ”

"But my mom asked me when she was helping. It's a hassle to hide the value of a stone that looks so ordinary. Leolu, you're going to make it up to me!"

Leolu, who was mentioned, suddenly paused, and mechanically turned his head to look at Ikki: "You...... What do you want from me?"

His instincts told him that what Ikki had brought up must not be a good thing.

"Hehe, I'll tell you later!"

Just like that, Ikki ran back to his room with a smile.

It's a bad feeling to feel like a catastrophe is coming...... But who called it Ikki? Leolu couldn't have refused, especially if they had helped with the scarf.

"I don't know what's wrong with the two of you, but it's not too early, it's already past the time for the good boy to go to bed!"

Yukino urged from the side, but she also looked happy.

Leo Lu really likes such a family. But after thinking about it: he and Ichiki in front of Yukino and Hai were achieved through a separate [telepathy], Hai even if he didn't see the communication between Yihui and Leolu, but Yukino is different, it wasn't fake for so long just now.

Thinking of this, the corners of Leolu's mouth twitched involuntarily.

It turns out that there is such a type of natural stay...... The nerves are too big!

But no matter what, it's good to be able to rest, because it won't be long before the hectic trip starts again!
