The Ultimate Lich King

"Boss, a crepe."

The lady in the red dress standing in front of the store said so elegantly, and immediately took the biscuits handed over by the store owner.

"I've been looking forward to it for a long time. Leticia said it's a food you can't miss!"

After resting for a while, he wandered around alone again. Kuyuan Asuka couldn't help but think of the delicious food Leticia told him.

The cookies that had just been baked exuded the rich aroma of almonds and the burnt aroma of caramel. As he walked, nibbling on the crepes, Jiuyuan Asuka showed an extremely happy look.

"It really deserves to be a small garden, with such delicious food."

Saying this from the bottom of his heart, suddenly a small yellow figure in front of him attracted Jiuyuan Asuka's attention.

"Is this thing... an elf?"

Asuka muttered to himself, approaching the elf with the pointed hat with a curious attitude. Perhaps it was the shadow of the flying bird that blocked the light from behind the elf in the pointed hat. She was startled and turned around. Immediately, their eyes met naturally.

"Yeah!!!!" The next moment, the pointed hat elf made a cute cry, turned around and flew away. So, without hesitation, Asuka chased after him.

Boundary wall, stage area, exhibition venue for art exhibitions.

After a long chase, Asuka finally caught the elf with the yellow pointed hat who was escaping in a hurry.

Putting the elf in the pointed hat, who had also run exhausted, on his shoulders, Kuon Asuka wandered along the street again.

"I'm not going to catch you and eat you. Why are you running so fast?"

"Ah wu..."

The elf was obviously very tired from the race just now. He lay on Asuka's shoulders in a large shape and let out a tired cry.

Asuka broke off a piece of crepe he bought from the store not long ago and gave it to the elf in the pointed hat.

"Here, give it to you. This is the proof of becoming friends."

"...!?" Under the temptation of the sweet fragrance, he sniffed it with his nose. The exhausted elf immediately sat up and took the shortbread and began to nibble on it. After eating a few cookies that were almost the same size as his own height, the elf in the pointed hat made a cute cry and climbed onto the bird's head.

"Haha...wahaha..." Feeling the elf jumping happily on his head, Asuka couldn't help but feel happy for the success of the food luring plan.

"Since we are already friends, let's introduce ourselves. My name is Asuka, what's yours?"

"Asuka...?"

The elf in the pointed hat, who sounded like a toddler, shook his head left and right several times before tilting his head slightly and calling out Asuka's name.

"Yes, that's the pronunciation. Be energetic and don't doubt." Jiuyuan Asuka smiled and encouraged the elf on his shoulder.

"Asuka!" He shouted decisively without hesitation.

"Hehe, thank you. Then, can you tell me your name?"

The elf in the pointed hat stood up on the bird's head and said energetically.

"Rattenfanger~!"

"This... doesn't look like a name, does it?" Jiuyuan Feiniao muttered strangely, and then the little elf shouted again.

"No...together!"

"The name of the community, what about your name?"

"Rattenfanger~!"

Regarding Jiuyuan Feiniao's question, the elf tilted his head strangely, as if he didn't understand. He just continued to shout the name that seemed to be a community.

He had been talking to the elf all the time. Jiuyuan Asuka didn't notice that he walked into a cave without knowing it. Just like the streets outside, there was also an exhibition. Wonderful items belonging to various communities were neatly arranged. Place it here.

Forget it, let's wait until later to talk about the name. It's really hard to talk to this little guy.

Jiuyuan Feiniao thought helplessly in his heart, and then started to visit with the elf.

The two looked around at the numerous displays. The exhibition venue is a cave-like corridor dug into the boundary wall, so it is quite dark in the depths, and light from the outside cannot penetrate.

However, this should also be to enhance the brilliance of the display design, right? The numerous candlesticks and lanterns that emit warm firelight, as well as the stunningly beautiful stained glass illuminated by the light source, all shine brighter and more brilliantly than other works seen outside.

After that, the two people who continued to move forward in the exhibition hall came to a large hollow, which should be the center of the venue.

However, there were no visitors. Is it because it was too dark?

"that is……"

Looking at the huge object placed in the middle of the exhibition, Kuyuan Asuka opened his mouth in surprise.

The object displayed in the center of the large hollow is a giant made of red steel. The whole body is very gorgeous and scary... With the red and gold decoration, it is estimated to be about thirty feet tall. The armor is painted with an abstract painting based on sunlight, which is very overwhelming.

Coupled with the huge hands and feet that should be twice the size of a human being, and the equally wide head and body, one can't help but wonder how it was able to move into this small entrance in the first place.

Based on the delicate decoration on the red armor, you can feel the maker's extraordinary passion for the work.

"Okay...that's great. Which community made it...?"

"Asuka! 'Rattenfanger'!"

The elf in the pointed hat opened his shining eyes and jumped down from Asuka's shoulder.

The sign on the exhibit does indeed read "Production: 'Rattenfanger'" and "Title of Work: Dean".

The birds and elves who were admiring the huge steel doll did not notice that deep in the deserted cave, there was a chuckle, and then countless pairs of scarlet eyes bloomed in the darkness. Come on.

Jiuyuan Asuka looked around uneasily, as if she had felt something bad spying on her just now.

A bad feeling lingered all over his body. Looking at the silent empty space, Jiuyuan Feiniao felt a little scared.

"Let's go." He said softly to the little guy on his shoulder. Jiuyuan Feiniao wanted to leave here, and then at this moment, the noise became louder.

"What! How come there are so many rats!"

When she saw clearly the mighty creature rushing towards the end of the passage, Jiuyuan Asuka let out a high-pitched scream. Any woman who is still physically and mentally healthy would be scared to see such a scene. Screaming, right?
