Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure



After a second of being caught off guard, Cecilia and I quickly moved to her side and helped her up.

Seeing the pale look on her face, I couldn't help asking, "What's wrong? Do you feel sick?"

Moon didn't answer as she laid there in our arms taking a few deep breaths.

With these deep breaths, her expression became better and she was slowly able to sit up again.

After she sat up, she shook her head and said, "I'm fine, but what about you two? Are you not affected at all?"

Cecilia and I couldn't help looking at each other with confused looks as we had no idea what Moon was talking about. Then I looked back at her and asked with the same confused look, "Affected? What should I be affected by?"

Hearing this, it was Moon's turn to reveal a surprised and confused look.

She looked at the two of us and found that there was nothing wrong with us at all, so she couldn't help saying, "Huh? Why aren't you affected by the lack of magic at all?"

"Lack of magic?" I repeated before saying, "Why would we be affected by the lack of magic?"

Moon just looked at us with a confused and shocked look, not saying a single thing.

All three of us just froze there in a confused state before I finally remembered something.

This was lore from the game, but apparently elves were beings that were naturally in tune with spirits, which gave them an innate talent for magic. But that also came at a cost.

Since spirits existed almost everywhere, they were used to sensing the spirits around them.

But spirits were beings that were created from magic energy and they would not exist in places that were void of magic. So in a place like this where the magic energy was being drained, there were very few spirits here.

For the elves that were used to sensing the spirits, to suddenly come to a place where there wasn't a trace of spirit gave them a kind of shock. After all, the spirits also provided them with magic energy that they used for their spells or in general to maintain their bodies.

If there were no spirits, they would have a lack of magic energy in their body that would cause weakness in them, so that was why Moon had suddenly collapsed.

As for humans, we weren't dependent on magic energy in the first place, so we were fine in areas without any magic energy.

After figuring this out, I said to Cecilia, "Help me carry her back."

Cecilia gave a nod in response and then together, we lifted Moon by her arms, carrying her back to the group.

When we came back, the other elves quickly came forward to take Moon away from us.

The two blonde elves raised their hands and started injecting magic energy into Moon to make up for her deficiency while the rest of the elves glared at us.

I could only reveal a bitter smile when I saw this.

But I also said, "We'll go and take a look at the magic deficient zone ourselves."

As soon as I said this, the elves immediately spoke up.

"We can't let you do that! Who knows what you'll do to our forest!"

"That's right! Do you really think that we would let you go alone?"

"You think that we would really let our guards down in front of you humans?"

When our group heard this, they immediately moved to my side as if they were trying to protect me.

But I had already expected this when Moon insisted on coming with me earlier.

After all, it would be strange to expect the elves to suddenly trust us when we've only known each other for less than a day. It would certainly take much more time than this to build a relationship.

But there was no time.

I needed to have a proper look at the area where the magic was being drained from so that I could have an idea of what was happening.

However, that also wasn't the only reason…

There was something else that I needed to check while I was away from the elves.

The elves were still insulting us like this until Moon suddenly raised her hand.

The moment that the elves saw Moon's reaction, they all stopped talking and turned back to surround her with worried looks.

Moon just sat up without caring about them and looked over at me.

For some reason, I felt like there was something different about the way that she was looking at me. It was just that I couldn't put my finger on what it was.

After a moment of silence, she said, "You can go."

The elves were all shocked when they heard this, but then they were about to make their complaints.

Moon just raised her hand to stop them before saying, "We'll never be able to get anywhere if we don't trust each other. They have already shown that they want to be friends, so we should at least reciprocate."

The elves all looked like they thought differently, but in the end, they were suppressed by Moon.

But that didn't mean that they didn't glare at us when we headed over to the magic deficient area.

To make sure that they weren't too suspicious of us, I only took Cecilia and Haley with me over to that area to take a look. The rest of our group stayed under the watchful eyes of the elves.

As we were walking away, one of the blonde elves came forward to ask Moon in a hushed voice, "Young miss, are you sure that we should let these humans do what they want?"

Moon just gave a slight nod before saying, "If they wanted to do anything, they would have done it already. But at the same time, this gives us a chance to see just what they are actually planning."

The eyes of the blonde elf lit up when she said this and she acted like she was enlightened before withdrawing.

But even though Moon said this, the tone of her words didn't reach her eyes.

There was a different look in her eyes that had different emotions…

Perhaps even she didn't know what those emotions were.

She just knew that he had looked quite handsome when he had been helping her back.

After reaching the magic deficient area, I had Cecilia and Haley search on their own while I went behind a tree.

Once I was sure that I was alone, I called out the system.

Even if they couldn't see the system interface, I couldn't be too careless.

Not to mention, the system should be created with magic, so there might be a chance that the elves that were sensitive to magic would sense or see something. That was why I had to get away from them.

I looked down at the notification that the system had given me earlier.

This notification had appeared when I had walked over with Moon, but I had been distracted by her suddenly falling down to look at it properly.

But now that I did, I couldn't help being shocked by it.
