Chapter 29: Greetings
The 468-meter-tall twin buildings towering over the city, leaving a shadow in the direction of the setting sun. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The sun had just set over the horizon, and suddenly there was a dark shadow on the roof of the building.
A tall, thin man stood on the edge of the roof, wrapped tightly in a delicate green blanket to make him look more slender, and the wind blew the edge of the blanket with a popping sound.
His head and face were hidden deep in the shadows beneath the blanket, and from the shadows there were two pale green fluorescent streams, which flickered a few times as if they were his gaze.
He raised his head slightly, the red light of the fiery clouds illuminating the lower half of his face, a sturdy chin with a short beard of scum, and a few green clumps painted on his long thin cheeks.
"Decay...... The smell"
His voice was deep and beautiful, like a noble prince chanting poetry in his garden.
"The smell of elves...... It's spreading in the city."
Suddenly, a burst of turquoise light enveloped his body, and then his figure exploded, forming a violent turquoise whirlwind.
Instantly, the whirlwind came to an abrupt halt like a toy that had run out of batteries, and the turquoise light drifted away with the wind from above, and the tall figure disappeared without a trace.
"Liu Xiao, let's try it"
I used chopsticks to pick up a shredded potato and fed it to Liu Xiao's mouth.
Because it was cold on the floor, the girl put her feet on my slippers.
When I was stir-frying, I was really afraid that the oil from the pan would burn her, but she nimbly hid behind me and hugged my waist tightly, like a koala.
Luckily, the girl was light and quiet, so she didn't bother me or be in any danger.
"Uh...... It's a bit sour......"
Liu Xiao chewed slowly, staring at the rustling dishes in the pot with half-open eyes, as if he was really tasting it seriously.
"Whew!"
Liu Xiao suddenly narrowed her eyes, feeling her body shrink, and her two hands grabbed my arm tightly.
"It's spicy!"
"Hey, hey, of course, sour and hot shredded potatoes, fried dried red peppers and pickled peppers, it should taste good"
Liu Xiao shook his head vigorously, because he didn't tie his hair, his smooth long hair swayed from side to side behind him, waving like it was blown by the wind.
"Okay, can you get off my feet?"
The girl shook her head again.
"No, it's cool"
"No way, I'll take you there"
So I just held Liu Xiao and walked into the living room step by step like a robot.
"Oh, your new slippers"
Liu Xiao looked back at the shoes on the ground, but there was still no movement, so I lifted her up a little like a little girl, and then put her on top of the slippers.
"Phew-it's really not a little girl, it's really not hard to hold you like this when you were a child"
"What is that?"
Liu Xiao looked at the other pair of slippers next to him, the sky blue ones were larger than Liu Xiao's, and a little smaller than mine.
"This is Mo Fei's"
"Mo ...... Fly?"
"Mo is Mo Yan's Mo, Fei is a rain above, and a very non below"
"Oh"
"That is, don't let it rain"
Liu Xiao blinked when he heard what I said.
"Quite an interesting name"
"By the way, can I ask you to go upstairs and ask Mo Fei to come down for dinner?"
"Do you want to call her?"
"Well, she said that she wants to help her mother clean up, she has a lot of things at home, I'm afraid I'm too busy to cook, and even if she cooks, it's very simple."
I touched the top of Liu Xiao's head.
"So go and call her down, call my aunt too, and say that I made a very spicy dish, thank her for taking us out to buy things today"
"Hmm!"
Liu Xiao nodded seriously, then opened the door and stood motionless at the door.
"What floor?"
"Sixth Floor"
“......”
Mo Fei stood there as if he didn't know what to do.
"Come on Liu Xiao"
"Oh...... I'll give it a try."
As he spoke, Liu Xiao walked up the stairs slowly and leisurely, step by step.
Although I'm a little lazy, I always feel like a well-behaved girl, not as rebellious as children of the same age, which is surprisingly cute.
Well, next, it's time for me to get the table ready.
Just go back to the kitchen first, serve the dishes, and cook a pot...... Soup...... Ahh
A little elf with blue hair in a fluttery dress is eating my dinner on the edge of the pot!
She twisted a few shredded potatoes directly from the pot with her small, white hands, and put them in her mouth with her head tilted back and her mouth wide open.
I rushed over in three steps and two steps and grabbed the little one's hand.
"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of getting hot"
"I'm worried about the food I cooked!"
Fortunately, I found it in time, and I didn't steal and eat much by her.
"You're so stingy, it won't be good to eat a little"
"No, no, I didn't prepare dinner for the elves at home, and I didn't invite you to dinner, so you came to the pot to catch it yourself, and we humans call this kind of behavior stealing."
"You're annoying, you're my medium, your stuff is mine!"
Whew, what's going on with this kind of "my husband's credit card is mine"?
"Okay, okay, I'll serve you a bowl, don't grab it from the pot again, okay?"
"Well, it's really worthy of being my medium, clam."
As he spoke, the little one ran into the living room, his little feet making a clattering sound on the floor, full of energy.
That one...... I looked at my watch, it was not 7 o'clock in the evening, I see, it was already 7 o'clock in the morning in the elf world, no wonder the little guy was in the same spirit as if he had taken medicine.
I found a small bowl, put a few chopsticks in it, then added some rice, and brought it to the living room...... Inside.
"You're so adaptable."
The little one is already watching TV with headphones on.
"Of course, I'm Eleherana, whether it's elven magic or human technology, there's nothing I can't learn."
This sounds pretty reliable, and as my magic teacher, it's quite reassuring if it's really that powerful.
"But Mo Fei and Liu Xiao are coming back soon, although they can't see you, but they can see the headphones, it's better for you to take them off."
With that, I placed Ellie's bowl on the coffee table.
"I've put your bowl here, don't exaggerate it when eating, we're eating in the dining room, don't start eating until we're all in."
"I know, I know, you're so annoying!"
As soon as the words fell, the door opened, Liu Xiao came first, and then Mo Fei.
The girl looked grizzled, and instead of wearing her usual ponytail, her hair was fully coiled, covered with a square scarf, and she was wearing an old sweatshirt with a lot of stains.
I knew it was going to be like this.
"Liu Xiao, did you say hello to Mo Fei's mother?"
"Well, say hello"
Liu Xiao's voice was a little lacking, and he was still a little out of breath, just going up the fourth floor......
"You're overprotective."
Mo Fei's voice was also a little lacking, but I knew it was because she was really tired and hungry.
"Sour and spicy shredded potatoes, relieve fatigue"
"Oh oh! yes, Xiaoqing really has you"
When Mo Fei heard this, his eyes lit up, and he changed into slippers and went in to wash his hands.
"Didn't Auntie come?"
"Well, she's not done yet"
"Then I'll leave her a meal."
"She said let's eat first"
"Uh...... Let's keep a copy."
"Good"
Liu Xiao also seemed to be a little hungry, and automatically entered the house when he smelled the fragrance.
Locking the door, I was just about to go inside, when suddenly I felt a flash outside.
A blue-green light flashed like lightning.
Elle suddenly stood up from the TV and ran to the balcony.
'What's wrong?'
I ran out with Ellie.
'I'...... Oh my God!'
There are no glass windows on the balcony, and you can see a large, turquoise vortex in the sky directly with the naked eye.
Composed of countless turquoise clouds, the area is so large that it is impossible to see at a glance, almost obscuring the entire zenith!
Only in the distance, close to the horizon, is the sky grayish-blue, that is, the size of this maelstrom looks like a cumulonimbus cloud.
The vortex rotates much faster than a normal cloud, dividing into three distinct regions, with the closer to the center the faster it rotates.
It looks as if the entire zenith is spinning, and the sensation is the same as when a person sees it after a few quick turns in place, causing a violent feeling of vertigo.
The turquoise glow of the maelstrom enveloped the city, and all the buildings looked turquoise.
'Ellie, what's this?'
'Ritual of the Satie Sheikh'
'Huh?'
'It's similar to the portrait on the TV, it's just an environmental magic, it's not lethal, it's equivalent to saying hello'
'Ahh
'But'
Ellie's voice became serious.
'However, this greeting means a declaration of war.'
