Elves: My Fantasy World

Should I say it's good luck...

Yes, I successfully survived that disaster.

Moreover, thanks to this senior who saved me...

Now I am no longer alone.

It was as if a new world had opened up...this senior was taking him to experience things he had never experienced before.

For example... just find an open but high place and sit there to enjoy the breeze.

Maybe it sounds like a very ordinary thing... but in my eyes, this is already a rare pleasure...

After all... no one wants to float in the sky all the time, doing nothing.

Here... although there is nothing to do, I am no longer lonely...

The senior said:

"Mo...Mo~ (You really seem to be just a child... When I saw you before, I thought you were an adult... Never mind, since you've followed me... Let's spend the rest of our lives together~~)"

He said it easily.

What kind of complicated emotions do I have...

I can't tell. Was it luck... gratitude... or was it just a sense of relief that I wouldn't have to float alone anymore?

Anyway...

At that time, my cold body...actually felt the temperature.

What I felt all over my body was no longer the coldness of that world... but an indescribable warmth of peace...

It's my luck...I met a good senior.

…………

Today, I learned a lot from my seniors... I met a few people who walk on two legs...

It was only today that I realized that this dog-like predecessor had made some kind of agreement with those guys who walked on two legs...

It seems that it is because... my senior's partner... a human being, seemed to have gone to a very far place because he could not resist the passage of time...

This is what the senior said...

But Senior seems to be really... that kind of, in a very low mood...

I don’t know what to do… I can only stay beside my senior, watching him stare blankly at the figures of those two-legged guys leaving…

Seeing that the senior was no longer as relaxed as before... my sword also felt cold...

Hmm... I think I understand.

This kind of coldness only appears when I... or the people around me are in a bad mood... I hope it will never appear again in the future...

…………

"Mo~? (Xiaojian~ Do you know? I have heard the story of your clan before?)"

Just another normal day... maybe.

My senior actually spoke to me at a time other than when I was about to move!

I was so happy at that time... I can't even describe it. Even the sword body showed a gradually increasing temperature.

"Om~~~ (We...a clan?)"

Although I was very happy at that time...but the final story of my senior attracted me more...

Because I finally have the chance to know what kind of creature I am!

Here... there is no mirror as the senior mentioned... nor is there water as the senior mentioned...

So...I can't see what I look like...

Although... I can vaguely feel that I am something like the sword that the senior mentioned... but it is still a little vague...

"Mo~~... (Your clan... has many legends... The one I remember most clearly is what the old master told me... Your clan can absorb the dead air from people to help them alleviate their illness... And your final form... the legend about the king...)"

I was immersed in the story told by my senior... I didn't notice why he suddenly mentioned the old master whom he was reluctant to mention before...

I didn't notice that the senior's aura was getting weaker...

I just listened to the story told by my senior.

"Ah... that's a story I heard a long time ago..."

"I heard from the old master that... an elder in his family had a very powerful shield sword monster... he tamed it in his early years..."

"According to the second story I'm going to tell you... the old master said... the shield sword monster didn't think that person had the potential to become a king..."

"But because we have been together for a long time, we can't live without each other...so we spend our lives together like this..."

"Humans' life span is always shorter than ours... To be honest, you should have seen this happen to me..."

"So, after the elder in the old master's family died... the Shield Sword Monster left that world... and returned here..."

"After that, he disappeared..."

"But... you know... your clan was originally believed to live by absorbing human life essence... it was only after the practice of the elders in the old master's family that they came to the conclusion that this was a rumor... but it didn't spread at all, because no one would believe it." (Did Shen Yu look at the illustrated book?)

"But... you actually have a special ability that allows you to absorb the aura of a dying person... and feed back your soul power to him..."

"The origin... maybe... your clan is possessed by the souls of deceased people..."

"In the future...if you meet someone you want to keep...just go and keep her...don't be afraid..."

"Don't... leave any regrets behind~ha..."

"I'll tell you the rest of the story after I wake up from this sleep... I'm a little... well, tired."

The senior lost his voice.

Senior must have fallen asleep... I really hope he can wake up soon... Then I can hear the "Legend of the King"...

I slowly inserted the blade into the ground, waiting for my senior to wake up...

waiting……

…………

Senior...never woke up again.

Why do you say that?

Because...the next tide is coming.

The violent storm… blew the body of the senior lying there into dust…

sluggish……

silence……

My whole body is cold.

Senior…left him and went away.

It seems that there is no motivation to wait any longer...

The rocks on the ground were loosened... I was completely powerless, but I was still swept up into the sky by the storm...

And this time, there is no other senior...

I... have lost consciousness.

…………

The pain from the body that was thought to be painless made me feel terrified deep in my consciousness...

Open your misty and dark eyes...

. . .

Where... is this?

What a beautiful place...

The sky is not gray...it is blue...

What are those white, slow-moving things? They look... so soft...

Well……

What am I lying on?

On my back...so comfortable...

It's so warm here...

It's totally different from the previous place...

I can feel the temperature... the sound...

And angry.

…………

My body seems to have recovered a little... I feel like I can move again.

Using all his strength, he finally lifted the sword out of the mud that covered his entire body...

Phew... totally different taste...

It’s a completely different feeling...

This place... seems to be a completely different world from that place...

Very warm...very...

…………

"Ah!! Ghost-type single sword sheath! Get out of here! Why is this beast so big!?"

"Evil guy! Get out of here! Don't try to kill us!"

"Why... is there a single sword sheath here... is this... the Overlord..."

"It's over... the whole village... is over..."

. . .

Ah...it's my fault.

I actually thought it was warmer here than that place...

Although my sword would feel cold from time to time... but this was the first time that my entire body felt cold from the tassel to the tip of the sword...

Is this... the temperature of this colorful world...

My senior seemed to have said...

"Our clan...will suck the life out of people..." - Isn't that fake...

Why……

It’s so cold here…

…………

"Would you like to eat something?"

It was an unforgettable brilliant color... It appeared just like that in this world that seemed colorful on the surface... but was actually all gray and black deep down.

Sitting in a wheelchair... she stretched out her fair and tender hands to me...

"I don't know what you'll eat, but I've secretly prepared some energy cubes that ghost-type Pokémon can eat at home... Do you want to come?"

Her color is... irreplaceable.

"Buzz...~"

These flowers...she likes them very much.

Indeed, it looks very nice.

But the most important thing is... being with her, in this colorful world... I have finally found a place that is better than this world...

She is unique and irreplaceable.

"Hmm... I really don't know what to name you... Can I just call you the One Sword Scabbard?"

Yes... Of course... You can call me anything you want...

Just... don't leave me alone...

I'm so scared to be alone again.

…………

"Cough...cough...cough..."

Her health seems to be getting worse...

It seems that her health was not very good when I met her...

Is it because you stayed with me for a long time?

I seem to have heard her housekeeper say—

"Miss... a ghost-type elf..."

"It's not his fault... I know exactly how my body is... cough cough..."

Her voice was firmer than ever.

That's right... She said it more than once -

"Mom and Dad always don't let me touch elves... You are the best partner I have ever met who won't be discovered by them... Although you are big... But you are very good at hiding~"

"Would you like to be my friend?"

Yes...Of course I would...

The senior said... our clan... can help humans absorb the dead energy...

I want to help her...

I will use all the soul power I have now to help her...

Help her absorb...

…………

Why...why can't I finish sucking it...

Why is it that the dead energy in you...I can never absorb it all...

Why……

That morning...

I was discovered...

she……

left.
