Chapter 117: Comprehensive Anime Elves: Starting from Hunter x Hunter Chapter 50

Enduring the intense pain, the Dorin Boar charged straight at Menchi like a recklessly crashing car, destroying every patch of grass in its path.

Its bulky and heavy body made every step tremble the meadow, like drumbeats striking Menchi's heart.

Menchi stared intently at the Dorin Boar, four sharp knives somehow drawn in her hands, their keen tips etching her determination.

Once decided, she would never give up halfway!

She, Menchi, always kept her word!

……

One week later,

inside Luo Ge and the others' camp.

"Is that so? Then I'll discuss it again when I return."

Luo Ge said, holding his phone.

The person on the other end of the call was none other than Zhu Di.

Zhu Di felt that as the family continued to expand, the name "Ella Family" was no longer suitable.

She thought changing it to the "Luo Ge Family" would be better.

Luo Ge didn't care either way, but if the name was to be changed, it could be done simultaneously with the implementation of his plans.

He intended to replan the development of the "Ella Family," which could also be understood as a transformation, moving away from those petty undertakings.

While his personal strength increased, his faction's power could not fall behind; they must advance together to build a top-tier force.

The upcoming plan was the first step toward becoming a top-tier force.

Since they were about to leave this place anyway, Luo Ge planned to return to Zhu Di's location for a while to handle matters before continuing his training regimen.

"Is there anything else?" Luo Ge asked.

After a brief pause, a voice slightly tinged with shyness came through the phone.

"Also... I miss you."

Zhu Di, her cheeks flushed red, forced out these words, while Rose beside her made a victory sign, feeling she had taught her well.

Luo Ge: ……

Hanging up the phone, Luo Ge looked at it in silence, subconsciously rubbing Eevee's fur.

Eevee:?

Machi packed the last item into her backpack and asked with some concern:

"It's been a week since that day, and we haven't seen Menchi."

"Could something have happened to her? Or is she angry?"

Luo Ge withdrew his hand from petting Eevee, and after a moment of silence, said, "Maybe we should go check on her?"

"We haven't visited Menchi's home yet; we could stop by to meet her family as well."

After all, Menchi had previously been as regular as clockwork, never missing a single day.

Suddenly not seeing her for a whole week made it hard not to worry.

Biscuit closed the handsome men's magazine in her hand, yawned, and said, "No need, she's already here."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Menchi appeared at the other end of the grassland, a smile overflowing on her face as she ran toward them.

"Luo Ge! Machi... I'm back!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Eevee also perked up its ears, happily bouncing on Luo Ge's shoulder.

"Evi Evi!"

Menchi arrived beside Luo Ge, cheerfully patted Eevee, stuck out her tongue, and said, "Oops, I almost forgot about the cute Eevee."

"My fault, my fault."

Machi quickly asked, "Menchi, where have you been this past week? We haven't seen you at all."

Menchi's expression brightened, and she nervously pulled something from her pocket.

"Actually, I spent this week preparing a farewell gift."

"It's this."

Menchi took out an exquisite bracelet made of teeth and bones, smiled gently, and placed it in Luo Ge's hand: "Here, this is for you."

"Make sure to keep it safe; there's only one of these, and if you miss out, there won't be another."

Menchi clasped her hands behind her back, said with a smile, her gaze mixed with a certain emotion.

Luo Ge accepted the bone bracelet, put it on his wrist, and thanked her: "Thanks, this bone bracelet looks quite nice."

Luo Ge was unaware of Cross Town's traditions and naturally did not understand that this bone bracelet was actually a token of love.

Machi beside him frowned slightly; her sixth sense gave her a not-so-good feeling.

But she couldn't pinpoint the reason.

"Eh? Nothing for me?"

Shizuku pointed at herself and said in a soft voice.

She wanted a gift too.

Menchi awkwardly scratched the back of her head, her eyes darting around as she said, "Because time was so tight, I only had enough time to prepare this one gift."

"Ahem, next time we meet, I'll definitely bring a gift for you."

Stare—

Shizuku stared at Menchi, paused for a moment, then spread her hands helplessly and said, "Alright, then it's a deal."

Luo Ge and the others had finished packing their things, and Menchi's arrival timing was just right.

Looking at Menchi, Luo Ge's thoughts drifted to the scene of their first meeting; the first impression she had left on everyone was that of a gluttonous girl.

But as time passed, they also came to understand that Menchi was a down-to-earth, hardworking girl who kept her word and had a cheerful personality.

Hmm...

It's just that the appetite is a bit larger.

This is nothing; during the time they spent with Menqi, they were very happy.

It's just a pity that the moment of parting has finally arrived.

Luo Ge said in a deep voice, "We should go."

Menqi's breath hitched, then she immediately showed a smile and obediently said, "Remember me, please never forget me."

Luo Ge was slightly stunned, then nodded in agreement.

Bisigi shook her head; she could already imagine what would happen in the future.

As the day turned to dusk,

the setting sun's afterglow shone on the grass, dyeing the originally green lawn with a touch of Jin Huang.

The amber dusk covered Menqi's Bai Xi cheeks with a color like maltose.

Her reluctant gaze looked toward the end of the grassland as the figures of Luo Ge and the other three disappeared bit by bit, gradually moving away.

A cool breeze blew past, lifting the tips of Menqi's hair and also messing up her thoughts.

On the empty grassland, only she remained; it seemed the previous liveliness was just an illusion, or perhaps a dream.

When the dream wakes, it is over.

"They are... gone after all."

"Without everyone, I'll have to eat bad-tasting food again in the future."

Menqi lowered her eyelids and muttered in a low voice.

It is easy to go from simplicity to luxury, but hard to go from luxury to simplicity.

Having grown accustomed to the food Luo Ge cooked, she could no longer eat the dishes made by herself or even her family.

Menqi squatted halfway down, buried her head, and murmured to herself, "Indeed, I still don't want to part."

"Machi."

"Shizuku, Bisigi."

"And also..."

Her words scattered across the empty grassland, receiving no response; it was merely her venting.

"Leaving me alone."

"So cunning..."

A few breaths later, a figure appeared at the end of the grassland and gradually approached Menqi.

Menqi stood stunned in place, blinking her eyes, watching that figure gradually approach her.

Luo Ge arrived before Menqi, greeted her, and said, "Yo, what a coincidence, we meet again."

Menqi wiped her eyes, brushed away the tears swirling in her eye sockets, and laughed, "Haha, that's not funny at all."

"Didn't you already leave? Why have you come back?"

Luo Ge said softly, "Hmm, actually, there is something I haven't handed over to you yet."

Menqi had given a farewell gift; how could he forget it?

After speaking, Luo Ge took out several items and gave them to Menqi.

Among them were a 【Smoke Ball】 that could guarantee escape when encountering danger, 【Healing Medicine】 that could quickly restore injuries, some tree fruits...

In addition to that, there was also a 【Heart Scale】.

In the game, the 【Heart Scale】 is used to make Pokémon recall moves; in reality, it is simply a beautiful scale with collectible value.

Rather than letting it gather dust, it was better to give it to Menqi.

Coincidentally, the 【Heart Scale】 is heart-shaped.

Menqi held the colorful, dazzling 【Heart Scale】, pressed it against her chest, and said sincerely:

"I will definitely keep it well, because this is what you gave me."

Menqi stopped crying and smiled.

In the end, Luo Ge still left, but this time Menqi was no longer sad; instead, she was full of expectation for the future.

Expecting the moment when they would meet again in the future.
