On my second playthrough, they were full of malice towards me.

Although Nuonuo's expression didn't change much and her voice was normal, Liao Ji felt something was off, a feeling he couldn't quite put his finger on.

After all, in Liao Ji's traditional view, there was no such thing as a landlord and tenant getting together. Such a scene was just like something out of some pornographic novels.

"In such a perilous situation, the elven knight captain had no choice but to restart the process in order to quickly gain the power to resist the monsters. The very foundation of the elven race's strength, the blessing from the world, was now being used to fulfill the wishes of other living beings."

"Yes, that's true. As a big celebrity, it's really endearing that Director Lei treats her fans so well. Plus, Director Lei is really beautiful. If I were you, I think I would fall for her too, right?"

Liao Ji stopped beating around the bush and chose to directly expose the truth.

"If things continue like this, it might really come to an end, but... a turning point has appeared."

"Huh? Nuonuo, do you know her too?"

But Liao Ji mostly saw it as lust at first sight, since Lena was indeed no less beautiful than Nuonuo.

Liao Ji briefly recounted what had happened that day to Nuonuo, and "she" was naturally the pink-haired woman in the photo.

Liao Ji finally couldn't hold back any longer.

The atmosphere became a bit oppressive. Just as Liao Ji was thinking about what to say to break the silence, Nuonuo got up from the table and sat down next to him.

"Similarly, the vast majority of elves have also given up the gifts the world has given them, no longer fulfilling the wishes of living beings, no longer drawing power from helping others, and instead cultivating themselves."

"Throughout history, the most powerful elves have only reached ten wings before they could go no further. No matter how many lives they help, or how many grander and more ambitious desires they help to achieve, they can never evolve to the final twelve wings."

"Later I found out that her name was Lena and she was the chief designer of Senmeng. Because I borrowed a friend's phone and played Falling 2 a few times, I had a good impression of her and wondered if I could get her autograph. Designer Lena not only gave me an autograph, but also took a photo with me in a very friendly manner."

To be precise, it's about getting rid of their improper relationship.

Moreover, the nicer Nuonuo was to him, the less Liao Ji could bear to harm her.

"What's wrong? Don't you trust your sister Nuonuo? Let me tell you, earlier today, that friend who came to my house was also seeking my relationship advice. I'm very experienced in this area! With my support, I'll definitely help you win the heart of your sweetheart!"

Seeing Liao Ji's affirmative "I like it" reply, Nuonuo nodded as if it were a matter of course:

the other side.

Winning the heart of a beauty or gaining Nono's support are not his goals.

After the young man said that, the living room fell silent.

"Little Ji, would you like to hear a story from your older sister?"

"Don't let my age fool you, I still know how to play games." Nono blinked, not giving a direct answer.

"The desires of living beings are always greedy, a bottomless pit, and humans are even more so. The knight captain had already prepared to satisfy the greedy humans in exchange for power, but surprisingly, in the process of the knight captain interacting with the humans, not a single one of the wishes made by the humans was for their own benefit."

“Long, long ago, there was a world full of ravages. On this land full of suffering, all living beings lived a very difficult life. The world did not want to see the creatures on the continent suffer so much, so a new and powerful race was born, called the elves.”

But there was nothing he could do; he'd never been in a relationship and knew nothing about women, so he could only grit his teeth and continue:

Yes, that's right.

Tell a story?

Liao Ji continued to state the facts truthfully.

"And this human who broke into the elven territory naturally became the knight captain's target."

In fact, Liao Ji did have a great fondness for Lena and a strong sense of closeness to her, even though it was their first time meeting.

"Elves are the darlings of the world, born with great power, and are the guardians of the world. They have received a gift from the world, a very powerful gift—they can gain power by helping others."

Both of them understood what "repairing things" meant.

"No! Sister Nuonuo, what I mean is, let's not... let's not fix anything anymore."

After that, there was no further physical contact. The blonde woman beside Liao Ji seemed lost in some kind of memory, gazing at the ceiling and murmuring to Liao Ji:

"The mission the world has given to the elves is to help suffering creatures, to provide them with shelter, and to fulfill their wishes."

"On that day, a human trespassed into the realm of the elves. By then, the elves were no longer the glorious beings they once were. The decline of the elves had allowed monsters to roam more freely, and even the elven race faced the crisis of being invaded by monsters."

The reason he's lying to Nono now, saying he likes Lena, even to the point of love at first sight, is actually to use this opportunity to get rid of Nono.

"And what about this autographed photo?"

Nono listened attentively, and then, following Liao Ji's words, she also focused her attention on the photo.

Liao Ji naturally followed Nuonuo's words and assumed that Nuonuo was also a player of "Falling 2", so it was normal for her to know Lena.

"On the contrary, humans only hope to defeat monsters, save more suffering people, purify pollution, and make wishes for the world, or even for the Knight Captain."

Nono waved her little fist at him, looking like she would give him advice or even act as his wingman.

Hearing this, Nono nodded: "So, you've fallen for her?"

"No, Nono, I... I didn't mean that."

A bit abruptly, Liao Ji wasn't quite sure what Nuonuo wanted to do, but subconsciously nodded in agreement: "Okay."

"Therefore, countless elves throughout history who have reached the ten-winged stage have tried their best to continue helping other living beings in order to gain the world's recognition and obtain the 'twelve-winged' power to save the world."

He hoped to establish a normal, sincere, and pure friendship with Nuonuo.

"When an elf helps enough living beings and fulfills enough wishes, their own strength will increase rapidly, which is specifically manifested in the wings on the elf's back."

"But without the help of grace, the elves are no stronger than other races and have become increasingly weak. Moreover, because they refused to help other creatures, they have earned a bad reputation for being arrogant and conceited."

"Afterwards, Senmeng's people originally said they would call security and the police, but thanks to her help, we were able to resolve the matter."

"But in the end, it was all for naught. In fact, one exceptionally talented ten-winged elf destroyed himself in the process of fulfilling someone else's wish, a very greedy one."

"The death of the ten-winged elf served as a wake-up call to all elf species, causing them to lose heart and gradually retreat into seclusion. They no longer believed in the existence of the 'twelve-winged' elves and accepted the inevitable destruction of the world."

Instead of what it is now.

It's as if he's been taken in by some rich woman and is being kept by her.

"Two wings, four wings, six wings, eight wings, ten wings. And the legendary twelve wings."

"Okay, I think I understand. Don't worry, I'll support you!"

"Many elves are very puzzled and confused by this, and also deeply resentful, because if they could achieve twelve wings, they might not only be able to save living beings, but even save this critically ill world."

"By fulfilling the wishes of humans, the Knight Captain's strength increased rapidly, progressing at an incredible speed from four wings to six wings, then to eight wings, and finally reaching the pinnacle of elven history, the ten-winged Great Elf."

"It was only here that the Knight Captain realized that the world's recognition did not mean that they elves would selflessly grant wishes for others, but rather that they could find someone who was willing not to 'make a wish' for themselves."

"At this moment, the knights understood the conditions for achieving 'twelve wings,' but under the rules of the world, like many of her predecessors, she could not speak it aloud and could only rely on that human. In the end, the human gave her the only answer."

"Xiao Ji, do you want to guess what wish this human made to the ten-winged knight captain in the end?"

Chapter 332 Lessons Learned from Elf Stories (Part 2)

The blonde woman stared at the young man with her emerald green eyes.

Although Liao Ji initially found Nuonuo's story abrupt and somewhat confusing, for some reason, he became engrossed as he listened, as if he had placed himself into the human character in the story.

"His wish is to give the captain of the ten-winged knights two more wings?" This answer naturally came to Liao Ji's mind, as if it were a question he had already answered.

"Yes."

"That's the wish. The only way for the elves to go from ten wings to twelve wings is to have those they've helped in the past help them make this wish, which means making a wish to the world for them."

"But ironically, the elves have existed for thousands of years. During these thousands of years, the elves have helped countless living beings and fulfilled many of their wishes. Yet, not a single living being has ever made a wish for an elf. Their wishes are only for themselves."

"Perhaps it was precisely because so many of the Ten-Winged Ancestors understood this point, understood that the essence of all living beings is selfish, that they became disheartened?"

"At the end of the story, the elven knight captain, who has obtained the power of the 'twelve wings,' together with her human companions, destroyed the monsters and drove away the evil forces that polluted the world. The world was finally saved, and peace and stability were ushered in. The elven knight also fell in love with the human and lived a happy and sweet married life."

"Logically, the story should end like this," Nono sighed.

Then she changed the subject.

"Leveling up?"

A strange attribute has been awakened?

Was this part of Nono's story just now?

and also

This doesn't make sense, does it?

"Silly boy, let me teach you. Come on, kiss me."

But the blonde woman still shook her head.

"That's right. Since you like Director Lei, you should present your best self to her. Imagine if you really succeeded and went on a date with Director Lei, do you even know what a date is? Have you ever held a girl's hand? Have you ever kissed a girl? Do you have the skills to make her happy?"

"Xiao Ji, what did you learn from this story?"

"If that's the case, that's fine. But later, the knight captain who followed the humans out of the forest realized that her human companions were not ordinary humans either. They had a huge empire in the outside world. She was so foolish. She should have realized that such humans must be saviors. And how could a savior not have other companions by his side?"

"If the elf had encountered humans before the succubus, would she have needed to undergo all the shameful trials of the succubus? Nor would she have awakened strange attributes as a result."

"As a second choice, if the elf had extensive experience dealing with succubi and was familiar with her opponent beforehand, she could also deal with the succubus with ease! She could even turn the tables and let the succubus experience what humiliation is like."

"So you know what you need right now? You need to level up."

"Don't have too high expectations for the future outcome. When faced with disappointment, accept it calmly and continue to strive forward?" The elves' "twelve wings" in the story are indeed not that powerful.

call!

After telling such a long story, Nono let out a long sigh. After saying so much, what she really wanted to say was what was coming next.

"Come on, squeeze my hand. There's also a trick: you can use your fingers to gently tickle a girl's palm. Try it on me."

Liao Ji felt something was off, but couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"Sister Nuonuo, wait a minute, this, this..."

"One should not be too selfish and should learn to think of others," Liao Ji concluded from the story of "The Elf's Wish."

“Xiao Ji, I’m not just saying I support you. From now on, just use me as a training ground. Imagine me as Director Lei, whom you like.”

This time, the blonde woman not only shook her head, but also sighed in a very heavy tone, "Wrong, exactly the opposite of what you said."

The elf character in the story is supposed to be a gentle older sister type, so why is she suddenly becoming so aggressive and domineering here?

But before Liao Ji could ask any of these questions, Nuonuo revealed her true intentions and concluded with a lecture:

until
