#315 - The water is deep, you can't control it
When Zun Zun woke up again, he only felt dizzy and accompanied by severe pain.
The body of a god could be immune to negative influences and had considerable restorative power, but that didn't mean it didn't feel pain. Otherwise, Aqua wouldn't scream in pain every time she was beaten by a kobold.
"Where is this...?"
"Don't move."
He had just wanted to get up when a hand pressed him down again.
"You just suffered a very serious injury. Honestly, if I hadn't arrived in time, you might have died! What exactly do you want to do, are you looking for death, you idiot!"
"Miss Elga, after not seeing each other for so long, I would have wanted to hear a warm greeting instead of a scolding."
Zun Zun covered his head.
If he had more energy, he would really argue with the beautiful elf girl.
That's right, the one who appeared at the end to rescue Zun Zun was none other than the beautiful elf girl, Elga, who he hadn't seen for more than a month. Although she said those words, her actions were still very considerate.
Zun Zun was currently in a lap pillow.
His head was placed on Elga's legs, not caring about the dirtiness as he lay flat on the ground, with a strong herbal smell on his body. It was estimated that during the time Zun Zun was unconscious, Elga had done some emergency care for him.
"You really are thick-skinned, I just randomly found some herbs and applied them, and you're almost better."
Liar.
Even ordinary people could tell at a glance how much effort was put into the herbs made for Zun Zun, let alone Zun Zun, the master of magical tools who was good at making potions.
This should be the elf hiding her tsundere behavior, and Zun Zun didn't intend to expose it.
"Thank you. But there's really no need to put in so much effort."
"W-wait, wait... What are you doing taking the herbs off?"
"It's okay, my constitution is quite special."
"Ah, is that so, then I was just being superfluous! Hmph!"
The beautiful elf girl saw that Zun Zun's body had recovered almost completely, and knowing that she might have done something unnecessary, she turned her head away with a light snort, unable to maintain her composure.
But she didn't let Zun Zun get up from her lap.
A beautiful girl's lap pillow...
Elga saw that Zun Zun's expression was strange and said with some concern: "What's wrong, are you uncomfortable somewhere? Does your head still hurt?"
After speaking, she took off the necklace she was wearing on her head, preparing to put it on Zun Zun's head. It contained a lot of magical power, and it should be a divine artifact, with the effect of alleviating mental pain or something.
But Zun Zun stopped her.
"...No, it's just that it's my first time having a lap pillow, so my mood is very complicated."
"First time...? Really, is it really your first time having a lap pillow?"
"Yes, whether it's my mother, sister, childhood friend, or even my fiancée, I haven't experienced it before."
"I-is that so... Hehe he..."
The beautiful elf girl suddenly smiled happily, and the surrounding environment became gentle because of her smile. The sunlight passed through the treetops, dappling on her body, and the golden light of the setting sun seemed to be testifying to her beauty.
At this moment, time seemed to freeze, everything quieted down, only her smile slowly spreading in the air.
Wait, is something wrong?
The beautiful elf girl seemed to hear something bad, but before she could ask, she saw Zun Zun suddenly roll over, gently rubbing his face downwards.
"That's great... The feel of otherworldly stockings is also very good, and it's fragrant and soft, I really want to indulge in it like this."
"W-what are you doing, you idiot! ?"
A forceful slap pushed him away.
Zun Zun was pushed out like that without any defense, rolling several times on the ground.
The beautiful elf girl covered her legs and shouted shyly: "Why are you suddenly expressing your feelings! It's really unreasonable! Idiot! Pervert! Scum!"
"Sorry, because it's the first time enjoying a lap pillow, so I couldn't help but..."
Zun Zun was a little embarrassed.
It was really involuntary. Securing his sister's legs was very sensitive, and something even more enchanting would happen with a touch, so he had never had a lap pillow. Yoyo and Huihui were naturally shy, and he could only see his mother for a few days a year. As for men, they were never within his consideration.
Rubbing his aching back, he didn't get up but sat cross-legged on the spot.
Looking at the setting sun.
The time was uncertain, but he had probably been unconscious for about an hour.
"Speaking of the Magic Flame Dragon..."
"It's sealed, here."
Elga's hand was inserted into her waist and abdomen, and she took out a small bottle-like thing from the space there, casually throwing it to Zun Zun.
"After I defeated the Magic Flame Dragon, this thing appeared."
"Oh, it seems it was a success."
The corners of Zun Zun's mouth cracked open in a satisfied smile as the plan succeeded.
This small bottle originally contained healing potion, but now it had become a container for sealing the Magic Flame Dragon, and the basis of the seal was using the fairy spirit—Xiao Hei's suppressing power, combined with the power of other fairy spirits to forcibly seal it.
"Speaking of which, why did you want to seal the Magic Flame Dragon, and fight it alone? If I hadn't been there, wouldn't you have died!?"
"Didn't I say it already?... Ah, I really didn't tell you."
When talking with Shimazaki Yosuke, his fairy spirit had not yet connected with the beautiful elf girl, so she didn't know about his plan with Shimazaki Yosuke.
"Actually it's..."
Afterwards, he said his thoughts again. And then—
"That's it, as long as there are two powerful energies clashing against each other, maybe it can break open space and create a passage, then I can take the opportunity to go home..."
"What—?—!?"
A deafening roar came, the beautiful elf girl looked very excited, knowing it would turn out like this.
"Impossible!" Elga denied it in one breath, "Don't be stupid, using mythical creatures as a foundation is a completely reckless approach, you are disregarding your own life! Give up, the water here is very deep, you can't handle it!"
Should this be the language of another world, or did Zun Zun translate it incorrectly, he had an illusion that shouldn't have happened.
"How would I know if I don't try..."
"Impossible is impossible!"
Anger!
No matter who it was, being denied outright would make them feel very angry, especially when the other party put themselves in a preaching position, even more so.
"Dealing with an ordinary Magic Flame Dragon was already so difficult and almost caused you to die, what exactly do you want to do by strengthening the Magic Flame Dragon! ? If I hadn't happened to arrive, you would have died!"
"That's because I knew Miss Elga would come, so I set a trap to lure the Magic Flame Dragon!"
"Eh? Eh—— ——"
The beautiful elf girl obviously didn't expect Zun Zun to say that, her cheeks flushed red, and her voice gradually became shy.
"Y-you trust me that much..."
"Of course!"
"I-is that so... That's not right! I was almost tricked by you! How could you know that I would happen to arrive, you must be lying to me!"
She changed her shyness and questioned angrily.
"That's because I have a sense for it." Zun Zun gently hooked his fingers under her puzzled gaze, "Come back, Xiao Lu."
Under the call, a green light group floated out of the beautiful elf girl's body, circling her happily several times, and finally merged into Zun Zun's body.
"This is..."
"A fairy spirit, you've seen it before, right?"
"Ah!"
She had really seen it.
Back then, in order to connect with her, Zun Zun let Xiao Lu act as a bridge and transfer station for communication. Later, after the beautiful elf girl was driven away, she left angrily, because she left too neatly, she didn't summon it back in time.
"But also because of this, I didn't defeat the Magic Flame Dragon."
This wasn't an excuse.
Zun Zun's six fairy spirits were one, only when all members gathered could they exert the strongest power, lacking one of them would reduce at least 1/4 of the strength, Julius and him were the same.
This was almost a common occurrence in ACG.
"Also thanks to Xiao Lu, I was able to grasp Miss Elga's position in time and counterattack at the last moment."
"Eh—is that so—"
The beautiful elf girl deliberately lengthened her tone, she gently raised the corners of her mouth, and a smile quietly bloomed in the leisurely sunset. That smile was like a peony about to bloom, both subtle and full of temptation, making people unable to help but be intoxicated by it.
Her eyes sparkled with gentle light, flowing like autumn waves. The orange-yellow hair fluttered gently in the wind, setting off her fair and jade-like face, making the smile even brighter and purer.
Heartbeat!
Seeming to be covering up her embarrassment, Zun Zun coughed and stopped looking at her.
"Alright, let's go back to the village."
"Go back to the village?"
"Ah, to see the village chief, and Mabel, the descendant of the Ice Clan."
"M-Mabel?"
Hearing Zun Zun utter this name, the beautiful elf girl's expression seemed very bad, she hummed inexplicably, making a dissatisfied tone.
"Is that so, is that so, risking your life to complete the task and still going back to give people good news. How amazing, maybe you'll win her favor all at once, and then like the otherworld samurai in the story, logically take the beauty home. How amazing, defeating the Magic Flame Dragon without using the Frozen God Sword, you'll definitely be regarded as a hero and then written into a legend to be passed down."
"What are you talking about? I'm not going to give good news, but to settle accounts."
"...Eh?"
The beautiful elf girl suspected that her ears had misheard.
However, Zun Zun raised the corners of his mouth and cracked a wicked smile, saying sinisterly: "That guy... clearly asked to borrow the Frozen God Sword, but did such an excessive thing, that's fine, after all, my approach was a bit abrupt. But! She mocked me, I can't stand it! The Crimson Demons, must retaliate!"
Ah, a complete misunderstanding.
The beautiful elf girl put the vinegar jar that was almost overturned back in place. It seemed that things weren't what she thought.
"Miss Elga, your mood seems to have improved, why?"
"The reason is... a secret."
She showed a moving smile again.
