Picked up an Elf King [Western Fantasy]

Visit lowered his eyes and looked at the flawless silver bone wings, as if he was looking at some sacred object that could not be desecrated.

He grabbed a piece of dragon scale, attached floating wind magic to the soles of his boots, and jumped onto her back lightly, without stepping on any scales with his soles.

Stina raised her head, groaned, and flapped her bone wings, bringing up a gust of wind that went straight into the sky.

Visit didn't feel any discomfort, because Stina knew that he was injured and specially put up a protective shield for him to protect him from the strong wind.

The sound of wind in his ears was also weakened by the protective cover. When he lay down, he could even hear the steady and powerful heartbeat coming from the dragon's body, which made him feel more at ease.

Stina flew very steadily, which was very different from her previous style.

"Wirmi, look below, that's Gaofeng Canyon." A gentle female voice sounded, causing Visit to suddenly come back to his senses.

He straightened up, looked down, and saw the famous Dragon Clan scenic spot with steep and precipitous terrain and cliffs that looked as if they had been struck by a blade.

"Well, it looks good." He said softly.

"Then let's play here next time." Stina waved her tail, looking forward to the next trip.

She flew very fast and arrived at Fenglingsen in a short time.

"Come down." Stina spread out the bone wings as before, so that Visit could come down smoothly.

But Visit lowered his eyes and glanced at the bone wing, spread a layer of wind magic under his body, and slid down along the sinuous arc of the bone wing.

After he came down, Stina transformed into a human form.

She is wearing green clothes today, which fits Fenglingsen's theme color very well.

Visit seemed to ask casually and said, "Stina, don't you love shiny things?"

Stina was slightly stunned and replied: "How could that be?"

She understood what Visit meant and explained: "But wearing gold glitter is too tacky and I don't like it. I like green."

"So that's it." Visit smiled and quietly closed the distance between him and her, and their shoulders were almost close to each other.

They walked side by side in the Fengling Forest, and small animals jumped past them from time to time.

Visit took the initiative to break the silence between the two: "Stina, do you come here often?"

Stina paused slightly and said, "I don't come here often."

She doesn't know why, but she has a natural repulsion towards dense forests.

Weisit was silent for a moment and continued to chat with her: "The scenery here is so beautiful, but there are no people there."

Stina answered him patiently: "Because dragons like open spaces, which is conducive to us transforming into prototypes and traveling around."

She pushed aside the wicker in front of her, stepped aside to let Visit go in first, and continued: "But I have been to this dense forest many times, mostly for missions."

"Bounty mission?" Visit's memory and strength are recovering day by day, and he can remember more and more things.

"Yeah." Stina's voice and tone were gentle, "I really like being a bounty hunter."

She sounded a little regretful: "It's just a pity that there have been fewer and fewer high-level bounty missions in recent years."

"Well, the Kingdom of the Dead is becoming more and more secretive now." Visit's eyes darkened.

High-level bounties are generally related to the Realm of the Dead.

The Kingdom of the Dead is a cult organization that arose thousands of years ago. Its purpose is to follow the evil god. Since the death of the evil god, it has been looking for a way to resurrect the evil god. It has committed all evil for thousands of years and is the common enemy of all races.

Stina turned to look at him: "Do you remember?"

"I only remember part of it." Visit smiled, his smile a little lonely, "I can only recall some common sense intermittently."

"It's okay, take your time." Stina patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "Maybe going out for a walk will really help you recover your memory. In the future, even if I'm not around, you can walk around as you like."

"Are you not here?" Visit keenly grasped the non-point.

"Well," Stina then remembered that she had not formally introduced herself to Visit, "Actually, I am the new king of the Dragon Clan. I am usually very busy and cannot be with you all the time."

She frowned, feeling that what she just said was a bit strange, but she didn't know why it was strange.

It happened that a couple walked in front, and the boy was comforting his girlfriend beside him: "You also know that I am very busy at work, and I can't always stay with you..."

Stina stiffened.

She finally understood where this subtle feeling came from.

Before Visit could react, she pretended that nothing happened and calmly changed the subject: "Speaking of which, I don't know which elf you are."

There are five major branches of the elves, namely water, wood, earth, metal, and fire. Except for the Elf King, all elves are branch elves and have their own attributes.

Visit paused subtly and replied vaguely: "It should be the wood elf. I think I resonate most with the wood element."

As the Elf King, he is born with all attributes in common, and there is no such thing as "branching".

"Oh." Stina responded absently, the couple's words still playing on a loop in her mind.

Visit noticed her uneasiness and silently swallowed back many of the things she wanted to say.

It doesn’t matter, there’s a long way to go.

--

Stina's "vacation" quickly ran out and she had to devote a lot of time to official duties.

She didn't return to the cave for three days.

After finally finishing the affairs for the time being, Stina could finally breathe a sigh of relief. She even forgot that there was an elf in the house, and she almost took action when she saw that there was an extra person in the house.

"Kirumi? Why are you sleeping in the living room? Didn't I tell you that you don't have to wait for me?" Stina rubbed her eyebrows, with an obvious look of fatigue in her eyebrows. It was her first time to take over and handle such a large amount of information. Occasionally you will feel overwhelmed.

"I left something to eat for you." Visit smiled and ignored the topic. He turned around and picked up a plate of snacks from the table and handed it to her with a gentle voice. "Violet grass is added to this to help you sleep." It works, eat some.”

"You have a heart." This was the first time for Stina to be left alone and cared for so carefully and considerately.

Her parents died in the war when she was still a dragon egg. She was raised by her uncle Ang Kou, but Uncle Ang Kou didn't know how to take care of the underage dragons, so she has been in a "free range" state.

"It's delicious." Stina nodded with satisfaction, thinking that Wu Mi's craftsmanship was really great. If he fully recovered his memory and wanted to leave in the future, she would still be reluctant to leave.

"As long as you like it." Visit looked at her without blinking, with a very gentle expression.

Stina noticed the slight cyan color in his eyes, frowned slightly, and said, "Go to bed quickly, you see you have dark circles under your eyes."

"Yeah." Visit responded warmly.

He has been having nightmares for the past few days. As his memory gradually recovered, the bad memories from the past also came back one by one. He had been plagued by nightmares these past few days and almost never had a good night's sleep.

Stina was too exhausted to notice this subtle difference.

She was really busy.

……

Visit had been listening to the noise, and when he heard that Stina's breathing had stabilized, and she must have fallen asleep, he walked out of his room.

The cave is very quiet at this time, and the sound insulation effect of the walls is also very good. If Visit hadn't had very good ears, he wouldn't have been able to hear any movement from Stina.

Visit hugged the quilt, walked to the door of Stina's room, spread it on the floor, and then fell asleep on it.

This time he was finally able to sleep peacefully.

……

The next day, when Stina opened the door and almost stepped on someone on the ground, she was completely stunned.

She looked blankly at Visit, who was slowly sitting up, and said in a surprised voice: "Wirmi, why did you...?"

Weisit gathered the quilt up to his waist and whispered: "I'm sorry for disturbing you. There won't be a next time."

He didn't look like he was going to explain.

He stood up, hugged the quilt and was about to go back, but Stina grabbed his arm.

"Wait a minute, please explain clearly." Stina frowned, "You didn't sleep in front of my door every night before, right?"

Visit's eyelashes trembled, and he looked like he wanted to refute, but couldn't.

Stina pulled him to sit down at the dining table and asked seriously: "I hope you can be honest with me."

Visit lowered his head, his blond hair scattered on his shoulders and back, as if covered with a layer of fine golden sand, and his whole person seemed like a prince walking out of an oil painting.

Stina couldn't bear to speak loudly to him, but she knew that problems must be solved as soon as possible, so she waited quietly for Visit's reply.

After a long time, Weisit finally spoke, but in a very low voice: "Without your breath, I can't sleep peacefully."

Stina's heart skipped a beat. She seemed to feel something from these words. Before her brain gave any instructions, a question came out of her mouth: "Are we -"

The words stopped suddenly, and Stina had come to her senses. She was surprised to find that she didn't know what she was about to ask subconsciously.

Visit raised his head and stared at her with his green eyes, which seemed to contain a lot of thoughts.

He said slowly: "Sorry, if I have caused you any trouble, I will leave today."

Stina frowned fiercely and said coldly: "Don't be kidding. Your injury is not healed yet. Where do you want to go? You will live here before your injury heals and your memory recovers."

When she said this, she realized that her expression might be a bit fierce, so she softened her tone and said, "I don't mean to drive you away, but I hope I am someone you can trust."

Weisit took a deep look at her: "I have been having nightmares these days, and what I dream about is what happened when I was injured. Maybe it's because you saved me, and I have a sense of dependence on your breath. If you don't get close, I can’t sleep peacefully with you at a distance.”

This was half true and half false. Visit lowered his eyelashes and felt a little nervous.

Stina was silent for a moment before speaking again.

"In this case...you can move back."

Visit raised his head suddenly, his emerald green eyes locked firmly on her with undisguised surprise.

"But I like to show my tail when sleeping." Stina added dryly, "You should have seen it on the first day, so I will move the bed over for you to prevent my tail from hurting you."

Weisit breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this was the right step.

He showed an expression of disbelief and ecstasy, and whispered: "This... this is too troublesome for you."

Stina said in her heart that I picked you up, so you are mine. Of course I have to treat my treasure well.

"No trouble." She smiled gently at Visit.

Visit's goal was half accomplished.

Just as he was about to say something, there was a sudden tapping sound outside the cave.

somebody is coming.
