Chapter 658: What Are Elves? Can We Catch Them with Poke Balls?

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
The task reward of a personal teleportation array was indeed good. With this array, Mr. Fang could return to the Jiuhua City Shop, the Yuanyang City Shop, or the Half City Shop whenever he wanted.
Besides, he could travel with another person, which meant that he could bring someone here.
Who should I bring…? Mr. Fang thought about it while peeking at the messages in the group chats on his new communication jade.
At this moment, players were talking animatedly about the story of the Legend of Sword and Fairy 4 in QQ group chats. Jiang Xiaoyue jumped out with the profile photo of Liu Mengli, [Mengli is my favorite. Don’t fight with me over her! 😡]
Mr. Fang said, [Xiaoyue, do you want to come here and play?😁]
Soon, he locked his eyes on a loli and tried to capture her.
[Scummy Boss!] Jiang Xiaoyue looked at Mr. Fang who had been absent for a long time. [I don’t want to talk to you!]
“Ugh?” Mr. Fang froze.
[I support Xiaoyue! The scummy shop owner has been absent for a long time!] Dong Qingli joined the accusations.
Song Qingfeng added, [😏The scummy shop owner who has been quiet in the group finally emerged.]
Tang Yu said, [He must have been peeking at us.]
[He wants to bully Xiaoyue again!] Nalan Mingxue said, [Xiaoyue, come and play with Big Sister.]
Having been hiding in the group chat lately, Mr. Fang’s sudden emergence caused turbulent waves.
[It seems like we can go to that place now?] Demonic Woman Ning Bi joined the fun. [How is that place anyway?]
After all, they didn’t have a good impression of that place, and they thought that Mr. Fang was battling everyday.
[Right,] Jiang Xiaoyue asked curiously, [How are things going over there?]
[Sir, do you use musou in that place everyday?] Su Tianji also joined the discussion.
[Fighting for what.] Mr. Fang’s face twitched. [I live in a peaceful place. We have friendly, elegant, and peace-loving elves, assassins believing in freedom despite their newbie skills, and funny knights who leaped down buildings after playing Assassin’s Creed…]
[Elves?] Dong Qingli posted a picture of Pikachu. [Do they look like this? Do you use poke balls to capture them?]
[TL Note: In Chinese, Pokémon is translated as ‘Little Pet Elves’ in terms of literal translation, so that is why people mentioned elves.]
[We all thought that you’ve been working hard over there. However, you’ve been catching elves without us knowing?] A large group of people started to protest.
Su Tianji quickly added, [Can you catch one for me?!]
Dong Qingli said, [I want one too!]
Shen Qingqing chimed in, [🤑 Give me one!]
Mr. Fang’s face darkened. “…’
[You’re talking about Pokémon! Not elves!] Mr. Fang emphasized, [You can’t catch elves!]
He quickly killed this thought in those players’ heads before it took root.
“Do they look like this…?” Jiang Xiaoyue posted a screenshot of her playing in Dungeon Fighter Online. As a battle mage, she was a cute elf with two pointy ears.
[Ugh? Is this also an elf?] Obviously, many players knew nothing but killing monsters and making competitions. [They are just humans with pointed ears! I wondered why these people have such long and pointy ears. I never knew that they were not humans…]
Mr. Fang looked exasperated toward these people. [Can you guys be dumber?! Didn’t you read the plot at all?]
[We kill Abyss Demons everyday; why should we read the plot?] Some players who were not fans of stories declared that they were still not familiar with the plot of the game. They only knew that they were adventuring on a continent and exposing behind-the-scene schemes while they were doing so.
Nalan Mingxue concluded, [Sir, do you mean that there are cute humans with pointy ears over there?]
[Don’t they… only exist in the game…?] Su Tianji was baffled too. In the game, she also played as a female mage and had advanced to a witch who was naturally also an elf.
[Isn’t that an imaginary creature that the game created?!] The others were also baffled.
According to Mr. Fang, such creatures really exist in the world?!
Don’t lie to me!
I’ve never heard of such creatures in my whole life!
…
Meanwhile, the elves, knights, and assassins who were watching them play the game from the back also looked baffled, and they became more curious as they played. “They keep talking about demons and monsters. Some monsters are plants and animals which can turn into humans after obtaining certain levels of power?”
How could things work in this way?!
It seemed like Liu Mengli is also a demon?!
How could that be? She is a human being!
If animals can turn into humans after they obtained strength, then why can’t our griffins with high-level strength turn into humans?
On this continent, only the legendary magic beasts which had reached the saint level could speak human languages. They only heard about animals turning into humans in mythologies and legends.
The magic beasts that could speak human languages were all extremely lofty existences with great bloodline, strength, and backgrounds. No ordinary people could get in touch with them.
As for orcs, they were born that way.
As elves, they were naturally close to certain animals and plants, especially the mild-tempered, peace-loving small animals or herbivores. For example, deer and squirrels.
We deal with these animals everyday day in the forest; how come we’ve never seen one turn into a human and play with us?!
“Sir!” The elves looked disgusted. There are indeed many wonders in the world, but don’t you try to lie to us!
They immediately called the shop owner over to them.
How come the animals in your world can change into humans as if they are saint beasts?!
If that’s possible, then I would have changed all the small animals in our Silver Moon Forest into humans!
The elves couldn’t believe or understand it.
…
“Um…” Looking at the disgusted elves who thought that Mr. Fang had exaggerated things in the mystical realm, Mr. Fang looked frustrated and said, “These people don’t believe that there are elves in the world! I was trying to explain your existence to them!”
“They don’t believe our existence?!” Elf Girl Sala pointed at herself and said in a huff, “Aren’t we elves!”
“Right!” The knights around them seconded her. “If they are not elves, what are they then?”
Mr. Fang soon posted the conversation to the group chat.
Tang Yu and the others were displeased. [I’m now sitting together and playing games with a deer, and you are telling me that there are no demons in the world?! How can you explain this scene then?]
Mr. Fang glanced at his communication jade and said, [They said the same thing.]
Jiang Xiaoyue curled her lips and said, [I don’t believe it unless I see a real elf with my own eyes!]
A player with the profile photo of a big white deer also protested in the group, [I don’t believe it either!]
