Adventurer of the Elf World

After finishing the chores with Xiao Chun, Xiu had no intention of going to the kitchen, but instead took out the camping equipment from before.

"Come, you go to the river and help me wash rice."

After Xiu gave Xiao Chun a task, he set up an alcohol stove under the shade of a tree. When Xiao Chun came back, he put the rice in a metal lunch box and set it on the fire to roast.

When he heard the sound, Xiu took off the container and put it into an insulated bag rolled up from old clothes. He didn't forget to explain to Xiao Chun.

"When the water content of this kind of open fire cooking is reduced, it is easy for the bottom part to be cooked or even burnt due to the temperature difference between the upper and lower parts. However, the rice on the top is not yet fully cooked, so the heat is about the same..."

Xiu didn't know what Xiaochun meant by heat, so he paused for a moment before continuing.

"When you hear the bubbling sound is sparse, you can take it out and put it in something warm to use the residual heat to heat it. This way the rice will be soft and delicious without being cooked."

"Then we can take advantage of this time to cook." Xiu set up a small pot, threw all kinds of strange things into it, and said something to Xiao Chun while stirring the contents in the pot.

“Today we will try the tokiwa dish we learned before.

This diced meat and vegetable soup is not as simple as it looks. There are many details in it, the most important of which is that it must use vegetables produced in Joban Forest..."

Xiaochun sat quietly aside, just watching Xiu's operation, with a very relaxed expression.

"The rice is ready~" Xiu opened the lunch box, and a stream of hot steam steamed out, condensed into white mist in the air, and then dissipated.

Xiu divided the rice into two bowls, and then used a spoon to pour the Tokiwa-style soup on top.

The thick soup sinks between the rice grains, exposing large pieces of vegetables and meat on the rice noodles. The aroma is rich and attractive, and the look alone makes people appetizing.

"Come! Try the thick soup rice bowl I made."

Xiu handed the rice bowl over, and then quickly took a portion himself, stirring the rice and soup together with a spoon.

When he found Xiao Chun looking at him, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I like to eat like this, you can try it too."

After saying that, he ate a big mouthful, but in the next second he breathed out hot breath quickly and swallowed the food wholeheartedly.

"Huh~ It's a little hot~"

Xiaochun also stirred the rice in the same way, and then put the rice covered with soup into her mouth. After simply chewing, her century-old expression also changed a little. Although it was not obvious, her next actions also changed. explained something.

"Eat slowly~ Don't be in a hurry. We can use the remaining soup to cook noodles later. This is also very good."

Xiu was very happy to see Xiaochun appetizing.

This is a recognition of his craftsmanship.

The two of them were eating a simple lunch on the grass in the backyard.

After one meal, the pot was completely eaten.

I have to say that Xiaochun looks like this, but he is actually quite edible~

…………

Dr. Omu had no intention of coming back in the afternoon. He couldn't go up to the second floor to do research alone without anyone around, so he had to close the door and play in the backyard.

But after he trained with the Giant Pincer Mantis for a while, he discovered that Xiaochun and Bobo were doing something strange under the tree.

I mentioned before that I could try training Bobo because I was worried that she would be bored, but then I got busy and didn't pay much attention to these things.

I didn’t expect that she would actually train with Bobo now~

But the way is a little strange.

He mentioned before that Bobo's wings were damaged and it was unable to fly. The only parts that could be trained were its beak and claws.

Now Xiaochun is sitting under the tree, while Bobo is pecking at a branch as thick as an arm, and there are several broken branches next to it.

And when it breaks the branch, Xiaochun will feed Bobo and use food to induce it to train.

It seems that Xiaochun has mastered the method of controlling Bobo.

Simplicity and crudeness are Xiu’s first impression.

Just be really tough~

But after thinking about it for a moment, it seems that Xiaochun doesn't understand how to train, and the current environment can only allow them to do this.

On the contrary, this is the training plan that is most suitable for the current situation.

He leaned over, and Bobo looked up warily when he saw Xiu coming over, his body seemed to be frozen.

Xiu didn't bother to pay attention to this guy and just sat next to Xiaochun.

"How are you these days~ Do you have any questions?"

Xiaochun turned slightly and looked over, then shook his head silently, raised his finger and pointed at Bobo to make a few gestures.

[It’s okay, I’m training it]

"How did you come up with this? You have a great idea. It's rare for Bobo to trust you in such a short time."

What newbies need is encouragement, and Xiu must act as a guide.

[If you don’t obey, you will be hungry. This is what the instructor taught me before. 】

Xiu froze for a moment after learning this, with a strange expression on his face. He wanted to say something but couldn't. He paused for a while before continuing:

"I think you need to re-understand the relationship between humans and elves, or the way normal humans communicate."

In the past, Xiu had been spreading common sense about human life to her, but Xiu had forgotten a very important point, that is, there are unique creatures like elves in this world.

There are obviously some small problems with Xiaochun's understanding of elves.

"First of all! Most elves are intelligent creatures. Some elves are smarter than humans, such as Casey..."

Xiu said a lot of things, probably deconstructing the relationship between humans and elves.

Regardless of whether it is right or not, at least it is reasonable and much more reliable than her way.

Xiaochun also noticed that Xiu was somewhat dissatisfied with her behavior, and did not express her opinion much, just stayed beside Xiu and listened slowly.

Xiu talked to Xiaochun for a long time, and struggled to reshape some of her concepts.

Fortunately, although her ideas were strange, she was still willing to listen to Xiu's opinions.

…………

The next morning, Xiu pushed open the door of the warehouse as usual, but found that there was an extra person outside, who was wandering in the backyard.

"Good morning! Miss Nanami."

Although Xiu was a little surprised why she came here so early, he did not ask, after all, this was someone else's place.

"Good morning!" Nanami stood up and approached the warehouse when she saw Xiu coming. "Brother, you don't have to call me that. You can just call me Xiaomei."

"Well~ You can call me Xiu too. I'm not much older than you."

"Okay, brother."

"Just call me Xiu."

"No problem, brother."

Xiu turned his head and glanced at her, and didn't say anything more. It was just a name. She could call him whatever she liked. It was harmless.

Nanami smiled when she saw Xiu didn't react. She turned her head and looked at the elves in the backyard and said, "I used to feed the elves when I came here. Now that brother is here, I have nothing to do."
