Elf: I Am a Farmer

Chapter 15 Planting

Back at Chiba Farm, Chiba Kaede released all six Mare sheep. 🍧💋 ➅➈s卄Ⓤ𝔁.ᶜⓞΜ 🐠🐯

These past few days they've been kept inside Poké Balls, which has really been suffocating these newly born Mareep, who are full of curiosity about the outside world.

So after they were released, they all took off running around with their short legs.

"This is Ms. Terada Yuri next to me. She will be taking care of you from now on. You must listen to her obediently, understand?"

After letting the sheep run around for a while, Chiba Kaede finally spoke.

"Meri, Merri!"

It turns out they just got a new owner, so it's alright now!

I thought Chiba Kaede had something important to announce, but it turned out to be just this!

After hearing this, the sheep that had just been attracted by Chiba Kaede bleated a few times and then started playing again.

"Where's my whip? Where is it?"

Chiba Kaede couldn't help but twitch his nose, thinking to himself, "I didn't expect these sheep to be so disrespectful."

"whee!"

Seeing Chiba Kaede's discomfiture, Terada Yuri couldn't help but laugh.

"You stay here and watch over them, I'll put your luggage in your room!"

Chiba Kaede quickly made his escape.

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on them, boss!"

Terada Yuri readily agreed.

At noon, Chiba Kaede personally cooked several dishes to welcome Terada Yuri.

However, after Terada Yuri finished eating, she said that she could cook from now on.

This made Chiba Kaede, who prides herself on being a master chef, a little unhappy. ღ(¯`◕‿◕´¯) ♫ ♪ ♫ 690ĤỮⓍ.c𝕠𝓜 ♫ ♪ ♫ (¯`◕‿◕´¯)ღ

However, after finishing the dinner prepared by Terada Yuri, Chiba Kaede declared on the spot that she would never enter the kitchen again without Terada Yuri's permission.

"Hiss, hiss!"

This is the voice of approval from an unknown, proud swallow.

the next day,

Chiba Kaede slept until 9 o'clock, which was rare for him. When he went downstairs, he found that breakfast had been prepared on the table.

Moreover, the sheep were also let out to play.

"Boss, you're up. I made you breakfast, and the Mare sheep have finished their Moo Moo Milk and gone out to play."

Terada Yuri, who was watching the Mareep play outside, heard the commotion and came in to report to Chiba Kaede.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Yuri!"

Indeed, being a boss is better than working for someone else!

Chiba Kaede, feeling perfectly taken care of, couldn't help but think this.

After finishing her meal, Chiba Kaede soaked the seeds she had bought in nutrient solution. According to the shop assistant's explanation, they would germinate in just 24 hours, at which point they could be planted in the ground.

Afterwards, Chiba Kaede picked up her tools and planned to cultivate some land for planting pasture and fruit trees.

Originally, Terada Yuri wanted to help.

However, Chiba Kaede did not agree, since the previous agreement stipulated that the scope of her work would be raising Mali sheep.

By noon, the goods purchased yesterday had been delivered to the farm one after another. In particular, the generator set was installed by Chiba Kaede in a warehouse near the house and then connected to the house by wires.

Now they will always have electricity to use.

Terada Yuri also has a cell phone; it's said the orphanage director bought it for her after hearing she'd found a job on a farm.

"Phew, finally finished!"

The day's work left Chiba Kaede exhausted, but thankfully she managed to clear enough land before nightfall.

Chiba Kaede only did the simplest work of turning the soil, but even so it was very tiring. She even had the idea of ​​throwing down the hoe and not doing it anymore. Fortunately, she gritted her teeth and finished it in the end.

"No, it seems we'll need to recruit some more elves who can do the work."

The more Chiba Kaede thought about it, the more something seemed off. Then she realized that she hadn't transmigrated here to do hard labor.

The world possesses the power of spirits, which can greatly liberate labor, yet I am still influenced by the mindset of my past life.

However, now that these lands have been cultivated, they can be planted tomorrow.

Afterwards, Chiba Kaede plans to go to Petalburg Woods to capture some Pokémon to enrich her farm.

"Boss, you're back! Go take a shower, you're soaked in sweat, be careful not to catch a cold!"

The one speaking was naturally Terada Yuri.

She now feels a certain respect for her boss, who is a few years younger than her.

After all, Chiba Kaede is a farm owner, yet he chose to take on the heavy work himself.

After taking a shower, Chiba Kaede finally felt a little better, but her whole body was still sore.

"Boss, this afternoon, Nozawa Breeding House sent someone to deliver the 10 Mare the sheep elf eggs you ordered."

As you instructed, I've brought everything to your room!

Chiba Kaede had specifically instructed Terada Yuri about this matter at noon, so when she saw Chiba Kaede come out, she quickly reported it to him.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you!"

After dinner, Chiba Kaede returned to his room. Terada Yuri, seeing that Chiba Kaede had gone to his room to rest so early, assumed that he was just too tired from working today and didn't think much of it.

Chiba Kaede was in such a hurry to get back to her room, of course, to use her abilities to improve the quality of the Mareep egg.

For this purpose, he specifically reserved three treatment opportunities for today.

Since Chiba Kaede specifically asked Boss Nozawa to deliver the Pokémon eggs in advance, these eggs will take about 4-5 days to hatch, giving him time to enhance all 10 Pokémon eggs.

Three days later, Chiba Kaede enhanced the last Mareep Pokémon egg. Now, he just waits for these eggs to hatch, wondering if they will hatch into a different colored Mareep.

He would make a fortune in that case; he could become rich just by selling these exotic Mare sheep.

Unfortunately, things weren't that simple. The Mare sheep that hatched from these fairy eggs were no different in color from ordinary Mare sheep.

The only difference is that these sheep are all very healthy and robust.

Chiba Kaede believed that these Mareep were perfectly capable of being used as trainers' Pokémon, but unfortunately, he didn't want to reveal his abilities yet, so he could only use these Mareep as a source of wool.

Of course, it's not necessarily a bad thing for them, since the training is very tough and they need to fight frequently.

Chiba Kaede's current strength is still too weak. He cannot predict what the consequences will be if his abilities are discovered, so he will avoid exposing them if possible.

Previously, Chiba Maple had sown the germinated grass seeds in the cultivated land, and now they have all grown into grass seedlings. This growth rate is significantly faster than that of ordinary grass.

As for the fruit tree saplings, Qianye Feng planted them at certain intervals in the planned land, intending to use this area for planting fruit trees.

After finishing all that, Chiba Kaede finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Chiba Kaede originally planned to take Terada Yuri to Petalburg Woods to capture Pokémon, but now that so many Mareep have been added, she can no longer leave.

Therefore, Chiba Kaede plans to go to Petalburg Woods alone, to catch a Pokémon for the farm's employees while also catching one for them.

"Maya, as the leader, you have to protect your little brothers, understand?"

Before setting off, Chiba Kaede spoke to the miscolored Mareep.

This creature officially left its infancy yesterday and can now be considered a mature elf.

After being tested by Chiba Kaede, this guy learned the electric discharge skill ahead of time. This is an electric skill with a power of up to 80, and it has a chance to paralyze the target if it hits.

With Mareep around, Chiba Kaede felt more at ease. At least when faced with invading Pokémon, Terada Yuri wouldn't be completely helpless.

"Meri, Merri!"

With Mare the sheep's assurance, Chiba Kaede left the farm and headed to Orange Blossom Forest.

Of course, he didn't plan to stay out for too long and would be back in the evening. Otherwise, if something unexpected happened, he would regret it very much.

Unfortunately, I need to use my abilities on Mareep Egg these days, so Taillow hasn't dared to engage in high-intensity training, which has slowed down its growth rate.

However, the proud swallow still brought him a surprise: it learned the Shadow Clone technique, a skill used to confuse enemies.

It makes sense. The proud swallow, which undergoes weight training every day, has already become much stronger after such training. Its speed after removing the weight is even more astonishing. With such speed, learning the Shadow Clone Technique is a natural outcome.

Your support is my motivation to create!
