Elves: My Fantasy World

Half past three in the afternoon.

Shen Yu and Lu Minxi had already toured the village quite a bit, visiting the bull training festival, horse fighting festival, fishing festival, and a series of other celebratory events. Most of these events were created to help humans and elves forge bonds. Every participant who won the top prize in the festival would become a partner with the strongest elf, and they would help each other in the future.

Lu Minxi ate and drank as she walked, and Shen Yu had no idea where she had put all the food she ate at noon. How could she still be eating?

She didn't seem to eat much this morning... She only managed to grab a little bit of Hoopa's breakfast and couldn't eat anymore, but now she's been eating for two hours straight and can still keep stuffing herself?

"The next Elf Festival will be held on the steep cliff to the west! We welcome brave souls to sign up!"

Shen Yu leaned over and patted the shoulder of the young man who was shouting at him.

"Hey bro, what's the next Spirit Festival about?"

The waiter turned around, paused slightly when he saw the person in front of him, then smiled and pointed to the sign next to him, which showed a group of birds.

"It's a Flying-type Pokémon festival~ Because there are many types of Flying-type Pokémon, we didn't choose a specific one, but included most birds."

"Because different birds have different speed limits, we will consider both the compatibility between this Pokémon and you, as well as the final speed at which you reach the finish line."

The young man carefully explained the rules to Shen Yu. After he finished, he smiled.

"How about it? Want to give it a try? Don't worry about safety, we'll take care of it~"

Oh? They can participate too?

"Sir, judging from your attire, you're a tourist, right? Although tourists can't take the Pokémon home immediately if they participate in the competition, you can choose multiple prizes at the end!"

Shen Yu raised an eyebrow slightly and turned to look at the champion girl—Shen Yu felt that she might be very interested in this kind of activity, and if she wanted to participate, it wouldn't be a bad idea.

Just as Shen Yu had expected, Lu Minxi's eyes lit up the moment she heard that the two of them could also participate, and she reached out and tugged at Shen Yu's sleeve, shaking it slightly.

"Hehe~ Um, let's participate too~ It looks really exciting~"

Flying over mountains and forging bonds with unfamiliar elves sounds like a lot of fun, doesn't it?

Although the girl is young, she has already realized that "bonds" are not something that can be formed casually and then simply sit there; they require care, tolerance, and patience from both sides...

Even though she understood the reasons behind it, Lu Minxi really wanted to try out what it would be like to complete this kind of competition task with a strange elf!

Since the girl had spoken, Shen Yu naturally had no reason to hesitate.

"Okay, let's sign up too!"

…………

Shen Yu and Lu Minxi arrived at the western cliff warning line, each holding number 18 and 19 respectively.

The cordon was very long, and two inspectors stood at the entrance. Only those with number tags were allowed to enter.

"Verification complete. You two, be careful and get good results!"

The middle-aged prosecutor at the entrance smiled and made way for him.

"Even if you want to give up halfway, it's okay. Our safety officers will ensure the safety of every participant!"

Shen Yu and Lu Minxi thanked them one by one, and then walked into the cordon.

"Let me see who our racing partner is!"

Before entering the arena, none of the contestants knew which spirit their partner was; they had to check their number plates after entering.

Shen Yu and Lu Minxi are relatively newcomers; many contestants have already been preparing, and they are currently having initial discussions with their partners.

A row of people, a row of... birds.

There were fewer than twenty participants in total, and only two or three Pokémon remained unclaimed.

Shen Yu spotted the big guy with the number 18 tag at a glance—a Steel-armored Raven.

There's no way around it, this guy is just too big. Compared to the other bird elves who are a little over a meter tall, he's practically a giant. His height of over two meters is quite imposing, and the badge hanging on his chest seems to be proof of being an S-rank adventurer!

However, Shen Yu sensed that the moment he looked at him, Shen Yu's gaze also fell on him!

Shen Yu kept his expression unchanged, walked slowly over, and stood in front of him.

"Hello."

Shen Yu nodded slightly, his smile unchanged, even when the Steel-Armored Raven's scarlet eyes were locked on him.

"Wow—!"

"Boom—!"

With its wings spread wide, the Steel-Armored Raven, already over two meters tall, boasted an astonishing wingspan exceeding four meters!

Their eyes met, a strong wind blew Shen Yu's bangs, and his smile gradually brightened.

From the first glance, I knew you were incredibly strong!

The giant crow's cry startled the partners of the other contestants. Those who might have been getting along well were now terrified and flew around in all directions, landing on nearby tree branches and staring in horror at the enormous creature that was now slightly bowing towards the boy.

"You...you scared them, you know that?"

Shen Yu slapped the Steel-Armored Raven hard on the head, the sound of his hand hitting metal echoing as his head collided.

Seeing that his punishment had little effect, he slapped his hands twice more as a show before giving the other contestants an embarrassed smile under the questioning gaze of the Steel-Armored Raven.

"Sorry, sorry... I'm so sorry..."

The staff in charge of the race rushed over, and after understanding the situation, they could only sigh in exasperation.

"Looks like we'll have to delay for half an hour. These guys can't fly at all right now!"

Shen Yu immediately waved his hand!

No need! I have ice!

After a series of complicated actions, the frightened birds finally returned to normal, each preening their feathers with their beaks covered in energy cube fragments.

While they were enjoying their meal, Shen Yu noticed that... Lu Minxi's companions seemed to be quite formidable as well.

A fierce arrow hawk, just as the steel-armored raven spread its wings, only she remained calm and composed, enjoying Lu Minxi's caress~

However, Shen Yu was not worried at all, because the two of them were not on the same track.

You want Steelraven to race TrashWings? Are you kidding me?!

After the rest period ended, Shen Yu mounted the Steel-Armored Raven's back. In that instant, the fluctuations in the shadows were stronger than ever before!

Aegislash: There's a bull! There's a bull!

He wouldn't even compare himself to Yveltal; their speeds were simply on a completely different level.

This guy is just like him!

Others might not know the specifics of this village, but surely he does!

What if, in the end, this Corviknight really does steal his job?!
