Manor Lord of the Elf World

Chapter 54 Under the Blizzard (Seeking monthly votes!)

Lei Wen thought the blizzard would end quickly, like before.

However, to his surprise, the blizzard continued intermittently for many days.

The work of collecting clay and firing bricks was forced to stop, and the entire territory came to a standstill.

In February, the blizzard continued unabated.

The residents of the territory stayed indoors, warming themselves around roaring fireplaces with family and friends. Only when the blizzard subsided would people leave their homes to shovel snow.

The only saving grace was that they received enough food before the blizzard arrived.

The food stored in the silos was enough for them to survive the blizzard and the cold winter.

Even wild Pokémon that inhabit the wild are not very active during this season.

With nothing to do, Raven spent most of his time at home with Dratini, Snivy, and Bubble Squirrel, except for occasionally calling Anna to give her and Zoroark some pointers, waiting for the blizzard to end and for spring to arrive.

Humans and Pokémon are working together to survive this blizzard.

As an Ice-type Pokémon, Snowcap is not afraid of the cold.

Even so, when a blizzard comes, they will still huddle under the eaves with the children, watching the snow falling heavily outside.

This is the second month since the Snow Hat Monster joined this territory.

After spending this time together, they have become familiar with the people here and have even become good friends with the children in the territory.

The Snow Hat Monsters now live with their best friends, a brother and sister who are only six years old, and their mother.

Inside a small wooden hut.

The three snow-hatted monsters, the brother and sister, and their mother sat together around a wooden table.

On the table were several bowls of oatmeal porridge and black bread, fruits from the snow cap monster, and several grilled fish. In front of the snow cap monster were several large and plump tree fruits.

Lunchtime arrived, and the brother and sister cheered.

"I'm gonna start now!"

"Ugh~!"

Then they all enjoyed a hearty meal together.

The woman standing nearby couldn't help but smile gently at the sight.

"Eat slowly, there's more in the pot if you're not full. George, Paige, finish these two bowls of oatmeal."

As she spoke, the woman looked at the snow-hatted monster beside her.

"Snow Hat Monsters, you guys should eat more too!"

"Ugh~!"

The three snow-hatted monsters let out happy shouts.

The woman watched this scene with a tender expression.

The children’s father tragically died in a previous blizzard, and since then, Paige and George, who witnessed their father disappear into the blizzard, have never smiled.

The brother and sister usually eat and sleep in silence at home, completely unlike their former lively and cheerful selves.

The woman looked at the three magical beasts in front of her and thought that since their arrival, the house had become more lively, and even Paige and George had smiles back on their faces.

Watching the two children and the monsters enjoying their food together, the woman couldn't help but smile.

Meanwhile, inside another wooden house.

The Exploding Ape was performing a fire-roasting performance of a grapefruit in front of Ryan.

"Wow! That's amazing!" Ryan exclaimed, giving the Fragrant Ape a thumbs up.

"Baka~"

The Fragrant Ape placed the roasted tree fruit in front of Ryan and Bean Dove.

This was its favorite food when it was still a juvenile monkey.

So now, it also wants people it likes to try it out.

"Huh? You baked this for me?" Ryan was surprised.

The Fragrant Ape nodded with a smile. Ryan sniffed and grinned, "In that case, I won't stand on ceremony!"

He picked up the hot, roasted tree fruit and ate it in large bites.

The fruit flesh was roasted until very soft, and eating it made you feel warm and cozy.

Ryan felt his body warm up.

"Baka~"

Seeing that Ryan seemed to really enjoy the roasted tree fruit, the Fragrant Ape was overjoyed.

It took out a few more tree fruits from the basket and started roasting tree fruits for Ryan again.

Seeing this scene, Ryan was deeply moved.

He immediately hugged the Fragrant Ape tightly, and said with emotion, "Waaah, Fragrant Ape, you're so kind!"

The fragrant ape was startled, but quickly recovered and scratched its head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Baka..."

The same scene played out again in different parts of this territory.

After lunch, Megan and her brother Chris moved the wooden fish tank containing the Magikarp to a spot near the fireplace.

Megan smiled happily as she watched the Magikarp swimming slowly inside.

"Alright, Magikarp, now you don't have to worry about getting cold!"

The six Magikarp remained expressionless, but soon, one of them unleashed its famous move, Splash.

Wow!
Instantly, water splashed everywhere in the fish tank, and the carp jumped out and landed on the wooden floor, thrashing about helplessly like a salted fish.

Megan was both exasperated and amused.

She went over, picked up the Magikarp, and then put it back into the water.

Next, Megan sprinkled tree berries, which the Magikarp love to eat, into the water.

"Okay, let's eat quickly!"

Magikarp couldn't resist splashing water and leaping again.

This shows that Magikarp is in a happy mood.

Megan got splashed with water again, and she pretended to be angry, saying, "Don't jump anymore! Or I'm not going to care about you anymore!"

Upon hearing this, the six Magikarp immediately became obedient.

They stayed obediently in the water and ate the tree fruits that had been cut into small pieces.

"That's more like it!" Megan smiled. "Eat up, eat up!"

Warcraft might not be as scary as they imagine.

One by one, inconspicuous seeds take root and sprout slowly in people's hearts.

Humans and Pokémon have slowly begun to merge in this territory this winter.

The blizzard lasted until the end of February before finally stopping.

As a result, the snow on the ground began to melt, all things began to revive, the rivers thawed, tender green shoots sprouted on the ground, and flowers bloomed in the bushes in the wild.

Various figures gradually appeared on the earth, in the sky, in the river, in the forest, and in the grass, including some that were usually hard to see.

Wild Pokémon, which had been dormant in their dens all winter, have finally begun to roam the land once again.

In early March, when the weather was still chilly despite the warming trend, Raven, along with his Dratini and Snivy, gazed at the gradually reviving and vibrant land before him, and a feeling of relief welled up inside him.

Spring is coming.

They finally made it through the cold winter.
