Chapter 17 – Got a Great Cameraman
Me, Rosamia, and Allen sat down at the kitchen table and had breakfast and chatted.
As Rosamia said, the table was full of fruits and vegetables.
It was beautifully plated, but the vegetarian diet without even the accompanying sauce was literally a diet meal.
Still, the fruit was delicious, and the vegetables were fresh, so it was suitable for a light meal in the morning.
Allen, who usually ground her food, seemed very happy that she could have a normal meal.
Rosa Mia was also thrilled that she and Allen were able to eat together at her table after a long time. Originally, he always solved meals in bed.
Thanks to this, even though there were uninvited guests in the country, the dining table was amicable.
Well, I was thinking of staying quiet during mealtime. It’s not like I’m always in heat 24/7.
“By the way, Mr. Rosamia. After breakfast, I told you before… Please.”
“Ah yes.”
“Huh? What are you talking about?”
Allen showed curiosity in the conversation between me and Rosamia. Rosa Mia glanced at me slightly, but I nodded her head because she was something Allen would know anyway.
Then Rosamia started talking.
“Starting today, Seonwoo will also be living in our village. So, I’m going to call the villagers and introduce them to Seonwoo.”
“Oh, I see.”
In addition, this introduction contained several meanings.
The first is to inform the face in advance.
It was to recognize my face in advance so that the elves would not be surprised if they met me in the village in the future.
It’s because I’m in trouble if I attack because I’m surprised by my appearance.
Second, to recognize the importance of my existence.
I intended to filter out the contract Rosamia and I had made to a certain extent and let everyone in the village know.
The villagers should know that I am essential for the future of the elven village, so they won’t treat me carelessly.
Of course, I have no intention of making threatening remarks from the start.
It is to the extent of building an image as a collaborator that benefits each other.
Aside from Rosamia and Alicia, no one knows what I am about to do.
There is no reason to go out and make me an enemy.
All you have to do is leisurely find a target to attack, and whether it’s dating or threatening to suit the target’s inclination.
Anyway, as long as I have the power of pheromones, I don’t have to bother with threats.
“And if you don’t mind, I would like to ask for a tour of the village. I want to take a tour of the entire village.”
“Oh, I’ll do that for you, brother.”
“Allen, you?”
At my words, Allen vigorously raised his hand. However, Rosamia stopped him with a worried expression.
“No…! Allen. You’re still…”
“It’s okay, Mom. Thanks to the medicine Seonwoo hyung gave me, I’m up and running now. I’m so full of energy, but if I stay at home, I’ll get sick.”
“But…”
“Please allow me, Mom. Yes?”
“I’m sorry…”
Rosa Mia seemed to be shaken as well as Allen looked at her desperately.
Well, what kind of woman could not shake her heart when such a handsome boy asked her with his eyes wide open.
But I understand her anxiety.
She looks healthy now, but she was struggling with her near death until yesterday.
It would be a big deal if she suddenly collapsed again.
But I sided with Allen.
“I think it’s okay too, Mr. Rosamia. I’ve got a few more pills in advance just in case. I’ll be prepared in case something happens.”
“Sir Seonwoo…”
Even I took her side, and Rosa Mia eventually gave her permission even though she sighed.
“But don’t push yourself too hard. You can come back in the middle if it gets hard.”
“Okay. Then I’ll get ready right away!”
Arlen, who finished her meal before she knew it, left her seat first.
“It’s nice to see you full of energy.”
“Yes… It’s been years since I’ve seen Allen like that… Thank you so much, Mr. Seonwoo.”
“Nothing special. It’s all about wishing each other good.”
I quickly finished my meal and got up from my seat.
“By the way, there doesn’t seem to be a separate bathroom in this house… How do you deal with things like washing your body and toileting?”
“Ah… Well, since elves don’t get dirty, basically, they don’t wash their bodies separately. Even if something gets dirty, you can wash it off right away if you use the spirit… That… The same principle applies to bowel movements…”
“Huh… That’s so convenient.”
Perhaps it was embarrassing to explain in detail, Rosa Mia blurted out her words with blushing cheeks.
“Then I can’t help it. I have no choice but to go home for a while. I had a good meal.”
“Ah yes.”
In the end, I was dirty because I wasn’t an elf, so I had no choice but to go back to my original house and take a shower and change clothes.
***
Morning.
Rosamia summoned the villagers to the central square.
In the plaza, a single root of the spirit tree rose to a suitable height, so that if you stood on it, you could look down on all the people below.
I stood slightly behind Rosamia and looked down at the elves gathering in the plaza.
Did you say that the total number of people in the village is about 100?
Of course, both of them have a beautiful appearance.
Even if you pick one of them out of spite and make her walk down a modern busy street, she could become a social media superstar in an instant.
However, if I had to point it out, the lack of individuality was a downside, not a downside.
It feels like a collection of beautiful girl characters from the 2D world.
Since each of them is so beautiful, it is difficult to find their individuality unless it is the color of their hair or the color of their eyes.
Of course, it’s relative to humans, but it’s not that they look so similar that it’s really hard to tell them apart.
If we look for another difference from humans, there is also a difference in aging.
Elves never grow old.
Its growth rate is similar to that of humans, but it does not age any further.
With a green appearance, he lives until he dies.
However, their lifespan is much longer than that of humans.
As a result, it is difficult to infer age from appearance alone.
Rosa Mia is also over 100 years old, but she only looks like a beautiful woman in her twenties in the eyes of modern people.
It’s just that he feels relatively older than other elves thanks to his unique atmosphere.
To sum it up, everyone is pretty and doesn’t get old, so it’s even harder to find each individual’s personality.
Well, that’s not really the problem.
Personality is a part that I can instill naturally if I want to.
If you ask me if I want to be unique or just good looking, I will of course choose the latter.
As I was thinking such useless thoughts, the plaza was filled with elves from the village before I knew it.
After confirming that everyone was gathered, Rosa Mia stepped forward and opened her mouth.
Her voice passed through the wind spirit to everyone.
“Thank you all for gathering. The reason we gathered everyone like this is no different… As some of you may have already seen, it is to introduce you to one of the guests who came to our village yesterday. Mr. Seonwoo, would you like to come forward?”
“Yes.”
When I showed up, a little commotion started to happen among the quiet group of elves.
In front of them, I lightly bowed my head and said hello.
“Nice to meet you, elves. My name is Seonwoo Lee. As you can see, I’m a human. I’ll be living here for a while, so please take good care of me.”
The elves who heard my greetings were agitated once again. Fortunately, I didn’t feel any hostility, but their eyes were filled with wariness and fear.
Rosamia stepped forward again.
“Everyone, please be quiet. It may be sudden, but this is a decision made by me as a guardian. I will not accept any disagreement. Although Seonwoo is human, he speaks elvish fluently, so he is a communicative person. Above all, interacting with him is what makes us elves You can carve out a new future. Allen?”
“Yes, Mom.”
At her call, Allen appeared from behind. All the elves were surprised to see him in good health.
“Yes. As you can see, Allen’s health has improved a lot now. It’s thanks to the medicine that Mr. That alone is worth accepting him for.”
Later, Rosamia added that I would be staying in this village from now on, and that you should never attack me or be hostile.
No elves objected.
Since it was the decision of Rosamia, the guardian, everyone seemed to accept it.
Rosa Mia dismissed her elves after completing the announcement in the plaza.
Me and Allen first saw her off for a tour of her town right after her.
“Brother, then shall we go too?”
“Okay. Wait a minute… Just set this up.”
I took out a digital camcorder from the small bag I had prepared.
“What is it?”
“Well… It would be faster to show than to explain.”
After briefly taking a picture of Allen with my camcorder, I showed him the screen as it was.
As a glimpse of herself flashed on her small screen, her Allen’s eyes lit up.
“Wow! Being able to record the past as a video, humans are really amazing.”
“That’s right. If you have this, you can look back at any number of memories that have passed away.”
“Memory…”
At the word memory, Allen somehow made a somewhat lonely expression.
“I don’t really have any memories to mention. But when I was young, I often played with Aricia… But now I’ve become a nuisance that only makes people around me suffer.”
“…”
“When everyone becomes an adult, they are given responsibilities, but I can’t do anything because I’m sick. What else could be so pitiful as this? If only I had been born as a woman…”
“That’s not possible. If you become a woman, the elves will become extinct.”
“Anyway, it’s still the same now. With my body… I won’t be able to bond with Aricia.”
Rosa Mia was said to be a wet dream, but she seemed to know that Allen himself too.
She knew Aricia had run over her, and she couldn’t handle it herself.
As the only male in the elven village, if he had any responsibility, it would be none other than to leave behind an offspring.
But if you don’t sow her seeds properly, reproduction is a long way off.
“…Allen.”
I patted Allen on the shoulder, who was making her gloomy face, and said.
“If you don’t have a duty, I’ll make it for you.”
“Yes? Brother?”
“Okay.”
“How…”
I thrust her camcorder at Allen.
“You… Why don’t you learn how to handle this camcorder?”
“Yes?”
The expression that I don’t know what that has to do with the responsibility.
I added an explanation.
“I don’t know if Mr. Rosamia told you about it… I’m not offering you medicine for nothing.”
“Ah… I heard that too… But I didn’t quite understand what it was about specifically.”
“I’ll tell you that now.”
I briefly explained.
Even the fact that you need money to get medicine, and to earn that money, you have to shoot a video here and sell it.
“In other words, if you learn how to use this camcorder and be able to shoot videos yourself, you will be able to earn your own money for your medicine. It will be.”
“That means…”
“Yes. You too will be able to fulfill your responsibilities brilliantly.”
“…”
Be able to fulfill one’s duties
At that, Allen looked at her camcorder with her serious eyes.
“Now, listen to it. You have to handle it carefully.”
“Yes yes…!”
“Now, just like me, put your hand here…”
I kindly explained to Allen how to use the camcorder one by one.
Arlen, who soon learned the basics of using her, took a video for practice.
“It’s done, hyung! It was filmed properly!”
“Yes. Well done. You learn quickly.”
“Can I use a little more?”
“Yeah. Why don’t you take a picture of the whole village while giving a tour of the village?”
“What a great idea!”
That’s how I got a great cameraman.
Well, right now I’ll only be in charge of the healthy videos that go up to the Elf Tube.
There will come a day when this guy will film an intense sex scene with me and Aricia.
I am very much looking forward to that time.
Looking at Allen’s back as he walked ahead with brisk steps, I smiled quietly.
