The reserve food raised is the Elf King

Cloud Lab.

Lancelot stood in front of a huge, almost blank magic circle. The light flickered, and his shadow was cast on the wall behind him, outlining his tall and cold figure.

He wore a pair of gold thin-rimmed glasses, his long eyelashes drooped slightly, and he held a thin white quill pen between the index and middle fingers of his right hand, recording data in the book from time to time.

He has been studying the topic of time and space since fifth grade.

As his graduation tutor, Mr. Green has always disagreed with his choice of topic. Countless cases of failure by previous generations all revealed the nihility of the proposition of time and space, but Lancelot insisted on insisting on it.

He even proposed to do two graduation topics at the same time, and promised that the other one would never disappoint the instructor.

Mr. Green can only compromise.

During this period, Lancelot spent most of his energy taking care of the cubs, and he didn't even get to visit his most coveted cloud laboratory a few times.

It was rare that I had free time today, and there would be no danger in leaving the cub at Arthur's house.

only……

He was ineffective all afternoon.

He always subconsciously looked at the time to see if it was time to prepare food for Isabella.

Then he was stunned for a moment, remembering that he was in a laboratory.

This has never happened before.

Lancelot was confused and didn't know what was wrong with him. He put down his pen and stood in front of the magic circle in a daze for a while.

Finally, I forced myself to set a task——

If he doesn't complete a certain progress, he can't go home tonight. Only then did he forcefully order himself to plunge into the experiment.

At eight o'clock sharp.

As usual, it was time to take the cubs to bed.

The elf was quiet for a long time, looking at the progress of the plan that was only half completed today, and finally took off his glasses.

He gently rubbed the bridge of his nose with his fingertips, and a silent sigh escaped from his lips.

He seems to have developed his own habits with the cubs.

-

Leaving the cloud laboratory, Lancelot went to pick up the cub.

From a distance, I saw a circle of people gathered in front of Arthur's house. The most conspicuous one was Professor Wile of the Giants. He was responsible for managing all students' entry and exit into the Forbidden Forest. Next to him stood Professor An from the Animal Protection Class.

"Professor," Jenny didn't notice Lancelot and pointed out Lydia arrogantly: "She and her accomplices must have stolen the unicorn egg."

Professor Wile spoke slowly and his voice was deafening like lightning and thunder. It sounded fierce and scary: "Do you have any evidence?"

Jenny hesitated for a moment.

She didn't want to reveal that she had entered the Forbidden Forest, but she had more important things to verify.

So he was cruel and pushed the girl behind him out, "We accidentally got lost at the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and happened to see Lydia and a strange creature walking deep into the Forbidden Forest."

"Yes, Professor," the girl who was pushed out testified, "I saw with my own eyes that the creature had a silver tail, was completely black, and flew very fast. Lydia must have secretly brought dirty things into the academy before she went there. Steal the eggs of the purest unicorn!”

Professor An looked at Lidya suspiciously, then asked carefully: "Lidya, is that you?"

She manages all the protected animals in the college. Now that the most precious special protected animal has been lost, Professor An looks very bad. But she was born as a human commoner and her position in the academy was not high. Even though Lydia's royal bloodline is not recognized, she must still care about her identity.

"It's not me," Lydia said quietly.

"Lie! It's you, I saw that silver tail with my own eyes, and it took away Miss Wilton's... um!" the girl said excitedly, but Jenny stepped on her hard.

Jenny glared at the girl who almost spilled the beans, pulled her behind her, and did not allow her to speak anymore.

He took a step forward in person, lifted up his skirt and performed aristocratic etiquette, "Professor An, I assure you on the honor of the Wilton family that what I just said to my friend is true."

She brought the conversation back to the topic without leaving any trace: "That silver-tailed beast must have stolen your eggs. Please be sure to catch it, otherwise you don't know how many poor animals will be harmed."

Jenny vowed, looking like she was doing it for the good of the college.

She mentally recalled the secret message from her family, informing her of the predictions made by the great astrologer in her clan——

[The giant beast of Victro wakes up in the distance, like the silvery light of the bright moon, covering up the light of the sun.

Be sure to find her presence. 】

A strong premonition told Jenny that the silver tail that had never been seen before in the forbidden forest must be closely related to the prediction of the great astrologer.

Therefore, she deliberately brought the professor to force Lydia to hand over the silver tail under the pretext of causing trouble.

Jenny was about to continue pressing forward step by step, but was stopped by Mr. Green who arrived in a hurry.

The old man in white robe patted Jenny on the shoulder, looked close and concerned, and said unhurriedly, "Miss Wilton, I believe what you say."

"But it's already very late. Good kids should go back to the dormitory early to rest. Let us adults handle the rest."

"I..." Of course Jenny was unwilling to leave like this.

But beneath Mr. Green's seemingly amiable face, there seems to be a pair of eyes that see everything.

Jenny felt a chill in her heart.

I could only suppress my impatience, smile and nod reluctantly, "Mr. Green, you are right. I am just worried about the protected animals in the Forbidden Forest, so I am rude. It is really late now, we should go back. If there is news tomorrow, Could you please ask Professor An to write a flying letter to let me know so that I can feel relieved?"

Mr. Green smiled and said: "Oh, okay, good boy. You are such a kind little girl."

After Jenny and his party walked away, Mr. Green looked at the two professors again, who were once his students.

"Ann, Wile, you should go back first."

"But……"

Professor An hesitated for a moment.

Professor Wile coughed "quietly" and hinted to Professor An not to pursue the matter. The teacher must have his reasons.

The cough was so loud that everyone looked at Professor Wile.

"..."

The rest of the crowd left. Mr. Green looked around, but did not see the figure of a certain dragon lady, knowing that she did not want to come out to see anyone at this time.

Then leave the task of appeasing the dragon lady to Lance.

Mr. Green slowly stroked his white beard and said, "It seems like nothing is going on. Even though I am an old man, I have to go back to sleep."

After that, he said goodbye to Lidya cordially and left unsteadily.

Lidya: "...?" Is everything okay?

Is this all right?

There was a huge quarrel just now, why did everyone suddenly leave at once.

She looked blankly at the elf.

The elf was looking up at the ancient tree in the yard next door.

He secretly took a deep breath before speaking slowly: "Miss Bella, how long are you going to hide in the tree?"

"..."

Silent, silent.

There were only a few scattered insect chirps in the night.

"If I count to three and you still don't come down—"

The elf's voice was ethereal and light, like a pool of warm, calm water.

But it was very effective for a certain cub.

"Oh!"

A large silvery white ball fell from the gap in the tree crown and hit Lancelot's arm.

Like a round white glutinous rice ball, the whole body was trapped in the arms of the elf, and the four legs and tail were used to hug him tightly.

Then he raised his big head and smiled awkwardly but politely: "Hi, Lance, good evening~"

"How was your day? I've missed you so much all day!"

"Ah."

The elf was merciless and pulled the brown candy away from his body. He held the cub by the scruff of his neck and smiled slightly: "Did Miss Bella have fun today?"

"Hey, it's just so so." The cub shamelessly pretended to be confused. He laughed dryly for a while and felt uncomfortable. He bowed his head and apologized honestly: "I'm sorry, Lance, I was wrong."

The elf has a gentle face and long hair with shining golden light, like an angel emitting holy light.

The angel smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"

The giant dragon confessed honestly: "It was his fault that he was greedy. He shouldn't have stolen the unicorn's eggs and had his mother chase him all over the forest."

"...?" Forget about stealing the egg, is there a follow-up story?

The elf's flawless smile cracked completely.

He took another deep breath.

smile.

Can't laugh anymore.

Isabella paused suddenly and reacted belatedly.

Ah, wait--

she! good! picture! since! burst! Got it!

What happened in the Forbidden Forest was known to Zaizai himself, and no third party knew about it. Why did my brain twitch and I stupidly said everything qwq

"Lance..." Isabella tried to save.

She sobbed twice and was carried by the elf in the air, hanging without a fulcrum, her tail curled up and she looked pitiful.

He whispered softly, "I was really wrong... ugh."

Seeing that the cub had a genuine expression and that there seemed to be mist in its big blue eyes, Lancelot was so angry that his brain ached, and at this moment he felt a little bit helpless as well as laughing.

Forget it, what's the point of being angry with a stupid dragon.

She obviously knows that she doesn't understand anything.

Just teach him slowly.

"Bella, eating unicorn eggs is not a big deal. You are a dragon and are born to be at the top of the food chain. No one has the right to limit your diet. As for playing and running around, it is not a serious mistake. , you just haven’t grown up yet.”

"But, did I tell you that you must think calmly and clearly before making any decision, and you cannot act willfully based on impulse."

It was rare for Lancelot to say so many words in one breath.

“What distinguishes us from other animal creatures is that we have thoughts and are not slaves to desires and instincts.”

Isabella curled her tail, lowered her head and listened obediently.

"And, most importantly..." Lancelot slowed down and took the cub back into his arms.

The dim yellow night softened the outline of the elf. He lowered his eyes and stared, his eyes gentle like the soft white pear blossoms on the branches on a spring night, floating in the warm wind.

"I am your guide. If you encounter anything, you should come to me as soon as possible."

Isabella responded blankly.

The elf smiled.

He gently stroked the cub's confused head, and the rest of his words turned into a soft sigh.

You always say you like Lance the most, as if I am the light of your life.

But when I gradually took it seriously, I realized that it seemed to be just a childish saying.

-

Because of the egg-stealing incident, Isabella stayed at home for a few days. She obediently watched the elf go to the laboratory every morning, and squatted on the rooftop balcony to welcome the elf home on time at night.

She also consciously practiced walking, and did not dare to ask Lancelot for a kiss as a reward.

When Lancelot came home one evening, she ran to the door dragging her tail, and the elf was surprised to notice the change in her: "Bella, have you learned to walk?"

"Ah, it doesn't count..." Isabella scratched her head, swayed and lay back on the ground, and said softly, "I can only barely walk ten meters. If I walk too much, my legs will hurt."

The elf frowned, "Leg pain? Why have I never heard you mention it?"

He picked up the cub and checked it carefully with his magic weapon, but found no injuries.

"It's not a big deal, I want to give you a surprise."

Lancelot pursed his lips, and rarely put away the smile on his face: "This is not a surprise, I will worry about you. Bella, if you feel uncomfortable in any way, you must tell me as soon as possible. You-"

"Oh, okay, okay, I know."

Isabella deliberately buried her head in his arms and arched her head up and down, perfunctorily interrupting the elf's upcoming tirade.

"Next time, definitely next time."

Skipping this disliked topic, I suddenly remembered something and my eyes lit up.

She rubbed her face against the elf's blond hair and said happily: "Lance, have you noticed that I've grown taller again?"

Upon hearing this, Lancelot gently shook the silver dumpling in his hand.

He nodded honestly: "It does seem a bit heavy."

But there is no change in height.

Isabella: "..."

She pursed her cheeks and said "hum".

I lost my temper and suddenly didn't want to continue sharing with him.

Aojiao said, "I've grown taller anyway, I know it myself."

After eating the unicorn egg last time, Isabella felt that her limbs were feeling hot when she slept at night, as if they were being stretched invisibly. But when I woke up, I found nothing.

I originally wanted to ask Lancelot, but he dared to say that the noble dragon lady was heavy! !

Isabella pouted until she went to bed that night.

When he got under the covers, he insisted on pointing his butt towards Lancelot, with an expression of "refuse to communicate, come and coax me".

Lancelot smiled softly, helplessly and indulgently lifted Isabella from the bed into his arms, and gently stroked her back.

"Okay, you little brat. As you grow, you will become heavier. I don't mean to dislike you for being heavy. Maybe after a while, you will be able to transform."

"Really?"

The cub consciously found a comfortable position in the elf's arms, not forgetting to grab a handful of blond hair and put it in his palm.

"Well, I'm very good at talking. Go to sleep, good night."

"Good night, Lance. Have a sweet dream =3="

"..."

midnight.

There was a sudden burst of birdsong outside the window, and the birds that were resting in the woods in the distance were flapping their wings, making the leaves rustle. It took a while for the messy and noisy sound to stop.

Lancelot frowned, stretched out his hand and found that the little dragon cub that was originally lying in his arms was gone, leaving a bit of heat higher than the elf's body temperature.

The elf didn't wake up, "Where did the little guy go again..."

The cub has an unstable sleeping position and can roll from the end of the bed to the end of the bed every night.

He was sleepy and groped in the quilt for a while.

Suddenly.

The fingertips seemed to touch a soft skin.

It is soft and delicate, different from the texture of a giant dragon with shallow scale lines, and more like the touch after turning into a human form.

"..."

Lancelot suddenly woke up.

The golden eyes suddenly opened wide, staring blankly at the girl who suddenly appeared under the quilt.

Thick silver-white long curly hair covered most of the bed, and her limbs were slender. She lay curled up on her side, her back curved like a crescent moon, her arms were empty, and the big tail she should have been holding was missing.

The moonlight shines brightly through the window.

Reflected in her snow-white and translucent skin, her thick and curly eyelashes hung obediently on her eyelids, rising and falling gently with her breathing.

Isabella, transformed.
