Elves: My Fantasy World

_The Deepest Part of the Insect Whispering Swamp_

Beedrill felt warm on his body and slowly woke up.

He was placed in a large iron pot... The pot also contained a thin liquid to soak him...

What is this... Why does it taste weird...

But...it smells surprisingly good...

"Heraclo~ (You are awake~)"

A kind voice sounded beside his ears. He tried to stand up, but was held down by a hand and pushed back into the pot.

"Heraclo! (You can't come out yet!)"

"Heraclo...Heraclo! (Your body is badly damaged today... both your muscles and wings... are all broken!)"

"Heraclo! (For your training tomorrow, stay inside now and behave yourself!)"

Hearing the word "training", Beedrill calmed down. It stayed quietly in the pot, just turning its head slightly...

?▽?! ! !

That ferocious horn... faintly revealed a murderous aura...

The giant bee was soaking in the pot even more attentively...

"Chamo! (Senior!)"

The sound of Flammel was heard, and Beedrill looked in the direction of the sound.

He was holding a bunch of unknown...weeds?

Heracross took it with a smile on his face...

Fold the leaves one by one...

Raise it high, parallel to your horns... and swing your arms!

"Thorn-"

The herbs were broken apart...

Hercules continued to fold it and placed it on his left palm...

A row of right palms!

The light green juice was squeezed into a large bowl made of leaves.

Heracross opened his treasured honey jar, picked out some with a branch, and mixed it into the large bowl...

Then...she licked the branch and showed a satisfied expression!

Fortunately, she did not continue to lick the juice in the bowl...but poured the juice into the Beedrill's pot!

"Heraclo~ (Small fire, start a fire~)"

The flame chicken came under the pot and snapped his fingers...

In the compound eyes of the giant hornet - the pot of medicinal soup is boiling at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Ah! I’m going to be cooked!

I also...

……

Ah...comfortable...

The giant bee had a leaf bag filled with cold water on its head...leaning on the edge of the pot...

I feel like my whole body has been healed...

It's just... I feel a little weird... I feel... my feet are a little itchy?

No, my hands are a little itchy too...

hiss--!

It feels like my whole body is starting to itch!

The giant bee was twisting its body restlessly in the pot...

"Chamo! (Senior!)"

Flamelon noticed Beedrill's actions and shouted to Heracross.

Heracross put down the honey jar and raised his eyebrows at the giant bee...

"Heraclo? (Is it true?)"

"Chamo? (What is real?)"

Heracross's surprised expression gradually relaxed, and he patted Flame Chicken's shoulder.

"Heraclo~Heraclo! (Don't worry~ This stage is... a hundred benefits for him and no harm!)"

After all, what he is doing is... the stage we are in now...

Oh my... Grandma... I can't believe that what you said back then was actually true...

Beedrill... could actually reach the ultimate stage of evolution so quickly...

Heracross's expression became softer... and more nostalgic...

Grandma, it's my fault for doubting you...

Please bless this child!

……

Bug type - Most Pokémons are formed quickly (except for the Vulcan Moth...), but the upper limit is relatively low...

Many powerful insect-type warriors are unable to enter that realm due to their own lifespans... or their talents...

In Heracross's memory, grandma was a strong person who was closest to that realm...

She is strong... gentle... and uses special symbols to record things and information...

But she once said to herself...

"Child... our clan... the upper limit is still too high... that barrier... is too difficult to break..."

At that time, I was confused and didn't understand what she was saying. I just simply thought - isn't it good to have a high ceiling? Is it good to be stronger than other people at that stage?

This thought persisted until I reached that level...

She finally understood...

The higher the innate upper limit is, the harder it is to break!

She flipped through the information her grandmother had left her... and began looking for a way to break the limit...

One day, she turned over a leaf like this.

There are symbols like this on it:

[The upper limit of the Beedrill clan is relatively low... Because of this, perhaps it is relatively easier to break the upper limit than other Pokémon populations...]

[If future generations turn to this page, they may wonder...]

[Why is it just Beedrill, and not others...]

[From what I understand, the Beedrill clan has natural limitations in terms of attack and speed! ]

[If it weren't for the lifespan restriction of their clan... I'm afraid the Beedrill clan would have many fast attackers... as numerous as the stars! ]

[I am already old, I am afraid I will not see the day when I succeed——]

[I leave a prescription here, which I have tested on myself. I hope that future generations will have the opportunity to fulfill my long-cherished wish——]

【Younger generations please remember this! 】

…………

If Shen Yu could hear this, he would definitely say something like this to Heracross - then why don't you just put all your effort points into attacking!

What a joke... Among all the Pokémon currently in the collection, the second-highest physical attack racial stat is Mega Heracross with 185 points!

……

Grandma's familiar symbol seemed to appear before his eyes again, causing Heracross to smile bitterly.

Although you are right... you are wrong in one thing...

Even though the Beedrill clan has an extremely limited lifespan...some of them can still reach this level...

What they lack is not time...

It was the arduous training that almost exhausted their entire clan to death...

Those old guys in the Beedrill clan all cherish their lives like gold, so how could they be so cruel as to complete such training...

The tragic scene of Beedrill being sent here appeared in Heracross's eyes again...

After all, what is missing... may be the thing called bond...

With this, the boy in front of him had the motivation to risk his life.

The Beedrill's movements are getting bigger and bigger, almost knocking over the medicine pot!

Heracross approached and lifted him out of the cauldron.

The giant bee suddenly fell to the ground, twitching all over...

The two needles were still inserted into the ground, and the light in the compound eyes of the giant bee flickered...

"呲-"

There was a visible crack on his back...

The body of the giant bee trembled, trying to escape from this body that was no longer suitable for it...

Heracross had never expected that... the Beedrill clan's breakthrough... was actually achieved through the common method of shedding its shell...

Several new wings have been extended...

There are still two broken pieces... but the difference from before is that between the first pair of wings that have become slightly pointed and the second pair of wings that are still broken... the prototype of the third pair of wings has actually grown!

Very small... very thin... very tender...

But, it is complete.

A needle was pulled out of the shell... It became longer and slender, and shone with a cold light...

The tail was pulled out... It was no longer oval, but had a slightly angular feel... The tail needle seemed to be a little thinner and longer...

The spherical body in the middle - that is, the two sides below the two needles... two small tumors protruded...

The wings trembled... the whole body was finally completely taken out...

Although the changes are not big, it looks completely different from the original...

The Beedrill flapped its wings, stopped in front of Heracross, and bowed its head to her.

"Heraculo~ (It's okay~)"

Heracross smiled and waved at him, then turned to look at Flamingo, his expression suddenly serious.

"Herakulo! (Bring him here every day for a month, you hear me!)"

"Cha! (Understood!)"

Flame Chicken also bowed to Heracross...

"Heraculo~ (Okay~ That's all for today~ Let's take him to rest~ Shedding his shell takes a lot of energy~)"

Heracross's expression softened and he nodded.

Flame Chicken and Beedrill disappeared into the jungle again...

Heracross carefully folded the shell shed by Beedrill.

This month's shell...just give it to that kid as a gift!

This is also proof of Beedrill's efforts...

Grandma...your long-cherished wish will be fulfilled by me...

Heracross looked up at the moon.

Quiet. Serene.

…………

Shen Yu remained silent as he listened to the heavy rain hitting the roof of the carriage.

Li Yueshang glanced at Shen Yu who was still in a daze and said,

"What's wrong, Shen? You seem to be in a bad mood since you came out!"

Shen Yu reacted immediately.

"Ah...ah no, it's just that the rain was too heavy today and the work in the reserve was a bit troublesome...I guess I was too tired."

"I see... By the way! I haven't asked you yet... Have you found anything unusual in the reserve recently?"

"Abnormal? What's abnormal?"

"For example... if any outside elves accidentally enter the protected area... Ah! There is nothing else to it. If you discover a new species that has never been seen before, you have to report it to the higher-ups!"

"No way... The isolation measures around the reserve are very effective. Besides, the reserve is so large, it's too difficult to encounter elves that haven't been seen before~"

Shen Yu smiled naturally and answered.

"Really... Oh! We're at your house!"

Li Yueshang parked the van on the side of the road.

Fortunately, the city's drainage system is good, and there is no water on the road now... But the wind and rain are getting stronger and stronger...

It is said that the drainage measures of the entire Tungyao started sixty years ago... and they are constantly upgraded every year... I don't know why...

"Old Li! Thank you very much!"

"No need! After all, you paid for the fare! Hahaha..."

After saying goodbye to each other, Shen Yu ran straight to the stairs without even holding an umbrella.

Li Yueshang was left with the car parked there.

Li Yueshang lit a cigarette in the car, took a puff, and slowly exhaled.

"Why did you hide it..."

…………

Shen Yu tiptoed to open the door...

"Hmm? Why is the little girl's light still on... Wait! No way..."

Shen Yu's heart began to beat violently unconsciously...

Walking through the door...

Hmm? This time, it seems that the feeling is not the same as the last time...

Shen Yu frowned and gently pushed open Shen Yaming's door...

The little girl was lying on the desk... Shen Yu could still hear her soft snoring.

The vine snake lay beside her, head to head with hers...

Shen Yu smiled and shook his head...

The intimacy level increases so quickly...

Shen Yu approached again on tiptoe...

"elder brother……"

A murmur sounded, and Shen Yu paused.

"Dai su ki~"

The voice was hazy, but one could tell the little girl's deep dependence.

Shen Yu gently covered her with a blanket, turned off the desk lamp, and walked out of the room.

…………

Release the sea lion from the ball... She still sleeps soundly...

Shen Yu gently carried her into the water tank.

Then he walked into the room.

The night is very quiet...

The bubble on the nose of the sea lion in the water tank burst with a "pop!", and the sea lion woke up slowly.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked around...

(っ ? -?) …

(?′?`?) !!!

That sister is so awesome!

The waking time of hypnosis is set so accurately!!! (Do you think she used the power of predicting the future...)

The sea lion didn't dare to waste time and quickly touched the mark on the fin...

With a "whoosh", her body disappeared into the water tank...

Two minutes later, the sound of Shen Yu's door was heard.

"Click." The light was turned on.

Shen Yu looked at the empty water tank, held his forehead and sighed.

"Forget it... I'll tell the Queen tomorrow..."

Shen Yu walked back to the room and lay back on the bed.

All he could see before his eyes was the trembling body of the Beedrill as it dragged the huge tree...

This feeling is not the kind of heartache of being backstabbed... because Shen Yu still wants to be a trainer...

But... you are so reckless... I feel like I owe you something...

Shen Yu curled up the quilt, hugged it tightly to his chest, buried his head in it and took a deep breath...

I feel a little more belonging...

Shen Yu continued to bury his head in the quilt...

Soon, even snoring sounds were heard...

…………

The sea lion looked at the extremely strange-looking hippopotamus in front of him and opened his mouth wide...

Such a pink shell... No... Such a big hippopotamus... No...

Oh! What a big shell!

The hippopotamus in front of me had a calm expression... and wise eyes. He looked like a wise man who had lived through a long time.

Qiuqiu Sea Lion tightly grasped the pink pieces that the big sister had just given her.

She just realized that... the energy in her body is not coordinated now... she can't learn from that big sister at all...

"Yaduo~ (little guy~)"

The hippopotamus suddenly spoke up.

“Chi…Chi! (Here!)”

"Yaduo~ (Today we are going to practice the control of water energy~)"

"Yaduo~ (You use your ability to blow a bubble~)"

The ball sea lion tilted its head, but still tried to mobilize the water energy...

A bubble slowly floats up...

"Snapped!"

The bubble was burst by the Hippo King's palm.

"Yaduo! (Too slow!)"

The hippopotamus's voice suddenly became louder... The majestic voice scared the sea lion so much that it shrank its neck.

But soon, the sea lion puffed up his cheeks again and blew out a bubble...

"Snapped!"

"Yaduo! (Too unstable!)"

"Snapped!"

"Yaduo! (Water energy is impure!)"

"Snapped!"

"Yaduo! (Come again!)"

Under the moonlight emitting pink light...

Several children set out on a sunny road...
