This Necromancer Just Wants to Plant Trees-Chapter 1995 - 576 Fairy Coco

...

Daredevil?

The lively, eccentric little fairy?

As soon as Matthew heard the name, memories and scenes from his last visit to Flowerheart Fortress immediately surfaced in his mind.

Back then, that free-spirited, mischievous little fairy had left a deep impression on him.

"Is it really such a coincidence?"

His brows furrowed, and he abruptly and rudely shouted at the leader-like Great Fairy:

"Did you use ’Mind Reading’ on me?"

The Great Fairy was instantly frightened and shook her head repeatedly:

"No, no!"

"Some people in the inn know Mind Reading, but I don’t!"

"Because my talent is lacking, I can only work as a kitchen assistant!"

Matthew glanced at Lulu.

She nodded slightly.

Indicating that the Great Fairy in front of them hadn’t used Mind Reading.

It seemed to actually be a coincidence.

"Are you sure you encountered a little fairy named ’Daredevil’?"

"He’s roughly my size..."

Lulu was trying to confirm.

But the Great Fairy immediately responded:

"Oh no, no, no, he’s much taller than you, taller by... at least a finger’s length!"

Saying this, she seriously measured with her finger.

Angry, Lulu immediately tossed a few "Bubble Missiles" over, causing the Great Fairy to howl, yet she dared not retaliate, only clutching her head and shouting:

"I wasn’t wrong, you are considered short among little fairies..."

Matthew hurriedly restrained the potentially furious Lulu.

He seriously said to the Great Fairy:

"Tell me about Daredevil, how did he cause you to lose your job?"

The Great Fairy, having narrowly escaped, immediately started narrating with high spirits:

"Oh, it’s a long story."

"Before I was kicked out of the inn, I was a kitchen assistant. My talent was average, but I was well-connected, and my status in the kitchen was like a trash can..."

Lulu suddenly interjected:

"All rubbish?"

The Great Fairy smiled smugly:

"Indispensable."

She laughed mischievously:

"One day, while sorting ingredients, I noticed a potato in the cellar was odd, not only sprouted but also covered in colorful fuzz."

"At first, I thought that potato was a magic plant—common in the inn’s cellar—so I sneaked it home to study, since I too wanted to independently complete a magic book.

Who would have thought that as soon as I brought it home and soaked it in water for a while, I could hear low cries for help from the water.

After some time, I realized.

That potato was a little fairy transformed.

I took considerable effort to lift the curse on it, and after that, he told me his name was Daredevil, from the Fairy Flower Garden.

He was turned into a potato by a wicked old witch, sent to the inn’s kitchen.

According to his original fate.

He was supposed to be crushed as raw material for a magic book.

You could say I was his savior!

But instead of showing gratitude, he claimed I deprived him of his chance to become a magic book!

I was so mad at him and asked why he was calling for help?

He said he wished to become a magic book but didn’t want to drown.

After hearing this, I was even angrier.

Initially, I wanted to send him back to the kitchen to be made into a magic book, but then I thought, wouldn’t that fulfill his wish?

So I let him live—

As my pet.

He was very unhappy, mocking me every day.

But I didn’t care.

I got a glass jar to keep him inside, taking him with me to work daily.

Truthfully, I wasn’t mean to him.

Whenever there was something delicious, I shared it with him first.

Every night, I’d sleep with him.

As time went by.

I even developed some feelings for him... you know.

I read in a book—

Fairies are inherently connected.

Great Fairies and little fairies can have love between them too.

But!

That damned Daredevil!

He deceived me!

He used me!"

Saying this.

The Great Fairy appeared crazed, bordering on hysteria.

Beside her, Lulu seized the opportunity, waved her staff, and poured three basins of cold water over her.

The Great Fairy immediately became obedient.

"Keep to the facts, leave out the emotions."

Lulu commanded coldly.

The Great Fairy obediently nodded.

"Fairy emotions are really unpredictable..."

"Lulu understands her kind."

Matthew silently noted in his heart.

The Great Fairy continued:

"In short, Daredevil deceived my feelings, pretending to reconcile with me, and then one day escaped the glass jar when I wasn’t paying attention."

"If that were all, I’d just be sad for a while."

"But that wicked creature fled to the inn’s secret treasury and successfully stole a priceless treasure!"

"Now, we couldn’t catch Daredevil, nor retrieve the treasure!"

"Afterward, the head chef investigated, and everyone knew Daredevil was my boyfriend—so I lost my job and had to wander and live rough in the wilderness..."

The Great Fairy spoke with a gloomy face:

"I secretly pleaded with the head chef several times."

"He told me, to return to the inn, either find the treasure Daredevil stole or demonstrate my ability to independently craft a magic book."

"I don’t even know what that treasure is, plus that cunning little fairy must have taken it far away, the Arcane Wilderness is so vast, how could I find him?"
