Chapter 5: Magic and Magic

After all, it is a language from another world, and there is still a certain gap in pronunciation compared with the languages ​​on Earth.

Lin Yu didn't think much about it. Instead, he poured some tea excitedly, dipped his index finger in it, and wrote two Chinese characters.

"Lin Yu, my name."

"Words I've never seen before, language I've never heard before... Interesting!"

The woman named Volame also became interested and immediately wrote another line of text, then pointed to the big tree outside the yard.

Of course, this word means tree!
Lin Yu's eyes lit up, and he quickly returned the favor by teaching the other person the Chinese word for "tree".

Just like that, the two of them put the brewed tea behind their minds and taught each other the language they knew, one by one.

Time passes minute by minute.

An hour later, perhaps because he felt that writing with tea was too inefficient, Volame suddenly raised his hand, and the tremendous energy in his body surged out from his palm, interweaving into a line of blue text in mid-air.

"Wow! What is this?"

Lin Yu looked at the line of floating blue light words in surprise.

Although he didn't understand it yet, he could sense that the words were made up of the same energy as that in Longlongyan.

"magic?"

"magic?"

Lin Yu looked at the blue light words with great interest, and then looked at Volame with dissatisfaction and said: "With such a convenient magic, why don't you use it earlier? My tea leaves are also very precious!"

"..."

The corners of Volame's lips twitched, and after a moment's hesitation, he said in difficult Chinese: "Sorry."

Lin Yu was stunned when he heard this, then he said excitedly: "That's right, that's what I mean - you have learned it?"

Volame shook her head, indicating that she could not fully understand the language Lin Yu said, but she judged what he wanted to express through Lin Yu's expression.

"Enough is enough!"

"I never knew you were a language genius just as good as me!"

Lin Yu was overjoyed. At this rate, they would be able to learn each other's language in a short while.

With this performance as a support, Lin Yu’s enthusiasm for learning the local language became even stronger.

The same was true for Volame. She had a strong desire for knowledge. Suddenly, she met such a mysterious boy speaking an unknown language in the forest of the northern plateau. Naturally, she wanted to know the boy's origins.

So the two of them studied from noon till sunset.

It was not until Volame's stomach made a sound of hunger that the two stopped with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

It was naturally the host's fault that the guests were hungry. Lin Yu took out the venison he had hunted yesterday without hesitation, and used the wild vegetables and mushrooms he had picked during this period to make a hot pot with a mushroom soup base.

Looking at Volame's attire that is very similar to the Greek style, it is clear that the world is still in the embryonic stage of civilization.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation are still not perfect. It is quite surprising for Volame to have a dinner that can be called delicious in this primeval forest.

After eating and drinking, the sky darkened.

Lin Yu enthusiastically invited Fu La Mei to live in his attic, but Fu La Mei shook her head and refused him.

To be honest, when the other party shook his head, Lin Yu's face instantly became disappointed, and for a moment, he had the idea of ​​forcing this person to stay.

However, thoughts are just thoughts after all.

No matter how lonely Lin Yu was, he would never attack the human being he had finally met.

Fortunately, Volame did not intend to give up communicating with Lin Yu.

She used her magic to form the number 2, gesturing that she would be back in two days.

Lin Yu nodded in understanding, but a hint of disappointment still hung on his face. For the next two days, Lin Yu and Long Longyan waited on the forest path at the edge of the territory. Sure enough, two days later, he saw that familiar figure.

This time, Volame did not come empty-handed. She was carrying a backpack full of parchment scrolls with words written on them.

It turns out he went to buy teaching materials!

Lin Yu suddenly realized, and at the same time, he had a better impression of the first friend he made in this world.

Just as he expected, what Volame brought this time were the texts that the nobles used to teach their descendants, which contained some fairy tales with relatively simple plots.

Thanks to these fairy tales, Lin Yu's learning speed has increased significantly.

He followed suit and memorized the Thousand Character Classic and Three Character Classic to help Volame learn Chinese better.

In this way, Volame finally agreed to live in Lin Yu's attic, and stayed there for a month.

After all, Lin Yu is a terrifying existence equivalent to the dimensional demon god. Even if he is suppressed by the main universe at this time, he is by no means comparable to ordinary intelligent creatures.

Similarly, Volame is also a genius that appears once in a thousand years in this world, and his wisdom is far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

So, in just one month, the two learned each other's language and were able to communicate skillfully in daily life.

"It's finally over~"

In the stone pavilion, Lin Yu put down the last fairy tale book and said with a melancholy look on his face: "Since there are all kinds of magic in this world, why hasn't anyone created magic that can translate unknown languages?"

"..."

Volame, who was sitting across from the stone table, glanced at him and chuckled, "Because the entire human world uses the same language."

"The world of magic is a world of imagination. Without the need for language translation, no one would think of such magic."

"That's not right!" Lin Yu frowned. "Didn't you say that there are races like elves and dwarves in this world? Didn't they develop Elvish and Dwarven languages?"

"..."

Volame was stunned for a moment, then said thoughtfully, "According to the theory of natural selection you mentioned, if elves and dwarves were separated from humans, there is indeed a possibility that they would develop a racial language."

"However, the situation in our world is rather special. We have common enemies like the demons."

"Thanks to the demons, the elves and dwarves were integrated into the human race from the very beginning. They are considered subspecies of the human race in a broad sense, so their ethnic languages..."

Having said this, Volame paused and muttered to himself, "No, I seem to have heard an ancient language from my teacher. If that's the so-called Elvish language, then this world must have had the languages ​​of other races... Hmm, I understand. Perhaps the common language of the continent today is the result of the fusion of ancient human language, ancient Elvish language, and ancient Dwarven language!"

That's it!

Lin Yu nodded thoughtfully, and then asked curiously: "You said your teacher might be able to master the ancient elven language. Could he be an elf who has lived for a long time?"

"It's not him, it's her."

Volame corrected the teacher's gender in the common language of the continent, then said with a smile, "Yes, my teacher is indeed an elf. As for how long she lived, that is still a mystery to me."

"She's really an elf..." Lin Yu asked with interest, "What's her name?"

"You wouldn't know me even if I told you." Volame shook his head, but still said, "Celiai."

"Celiai~"

Another name that sounds familiar...

Lin Yu nodded habitually at first, and then his movements suddenly froze, as if he finally remembered something.

Wait, the master is an elf magician who has lived for who knows how many years, her name is Celia, and the apprentice is a young, beautiful and talented human magician, her name is Volame...

This master-disciple combination seems to be a familiar sight!
Lin Yu twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at the graceful white-robed beauty in front of him with a strange expression.

Especially the other person's long orange hair, and the gold bracelet and necklace, which vaguely resembled a certain anime character in his mind...

Right, all right!

Could this world be the anime he watched before crossing over—"The Burial of Freelian"?!
