NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 1 - Raising a Little Companion
Chapter 1: Raising a Little Companion
In the fiftieth year of the Galactic Era, on Blue Water Star, inside a bedroom of a small villa.
“Mm~”
In the morning, Lin Feng stretched lazily, rubbing his eyes with his right hand, looking as if he hadn’t fully woken up.
“Mew~ (Xiaofeng, what time is it?)”
Beside him, sensing that Lin Feng had woken up, a small loli with red hair and fox ears, standing no taller than three palms, called out in a very melodious voice.
Psychic-type elves can use telepathy with humans, so Lin Feng could understand what she was saying.
Looking down at her adorable sleeping face, Lin Feng felt his heart melt.
He reached out and hugged Mew Xiaosi, poking her little face, and said with a smile, “Xiao Mew, time to get up. Today is my high school graduation, and I need to receive my initial elf for space travel.”
“Mew~ (Don’t hug me~)”
Mew Xiaosi opened her eyes and saw Lin Feng smiling while holding her, her little face blushing.
Hearing this, Lin Feng smiled.
The little girl was shy.
Lin Feng was not originally from this world. He had traversed from another world ten years ago, with no parents and as an orphan.
This world is the universe of the game “Saier Universe” from his previous life.
Just like in the anime and game, by the year 2110, Earth’s energy had been exhausted.
However, unlike in the game from his previous life where humans created Saier robots, they instead established the Saier Alliance!
Due to the unique physical constitution of humans in this world, they could breathe in space, allowing them to build spaceships to explore life-bearing stars in the cosmos.
When they discovered the first life-bearing planet, Blue Water Star, humans became curious about the mysteries of the universe and began exploring space.
That year was called the first year of the Galactic Era.
Over the course of three years, humans discovered many strange life forms in the universe, which they eventually named elves!
In the following years, humans and elves coexisted peacefully, and humans developed an item called the Saier Capsule, which could capture elves to become their partners and fight alongside them.
At the same time, the profession of “Trainer” emerged, and its status among humans gradually rose.
In the last forty years, various records about elves appeared before the world, and eventually, this universe was divided into six major galaxies.
Of course, various small galaxies were ignored.
Moreover, humans currently lack the ability to explore the unknown universe.
Humans also learned about the legendary strongest god-level elf, “Puni”!
Elves also have a classification standard based on their levels.
【Level 1 to 20 are considered Ordinary.】
【Level 21 to 40 are considered Elite.】
【Level 41 to 60 are considered Quasi-Star Lord.】
【Level 61 to 80 are considered Star Lord.】
【Level 81 to 100 are considered Galactic.】
Above that, there are the levels of the legendary elves, which are divided into four tiers.
They are divided into God-level, Emperor-level, King-level, and Legendary-level, from the Primordial God to the Tier-3 Gods, ranked from highest to lowest.
Tier-3 Gods, such as Lei Yi, Gaia, Black, Cassius, and other similar elves, are considered Legendary-level elves, including the galaxy guardians and the subordinates of the Elf Kings.
Tier-2 Gods are the Emperor-level elves that guard the galaxies, such as Xuanwu, Qinglong, Baihu, Zhuque, and Qilin, who are galaxy guardians, or the King-level elves of specific attributes, like the Grass-type Elf King, Fire-type Elf King, and so on.
Tier-1 Gods include the annual fee elves from his previous life and some elves like the Palace Masters of the Spirit Beast Palace.
The Primordial God, the strongest elf, is Puni!
The classification is somewhat similar to the levels in the anime “Pokémon” from his previous life.
Among these, the strength difference between Tier-3 Gods and Tier-2 Gods is quite significant.
However, at the Tire-1 God level, the differences in strength are minimal.
Where there is light, there is also darkness. In this world, not only are there dark elves, but there are also space pirates!
Over the past ten years, Lin Feng researched some information and understood that this world differed from his previous life.
Therefore, today, he must become a Trainer and reach the pinnacle of the universe!
Because in this universe, there are too many dangerous events. If one’s strength is insufficient and lacks the power to protect oneself, one will inevitably be caught in the vortex of the universe.
The Mew Xiaosi beside him was a little one Lin Feng found at his doorstep a year ago when he went out.
At that time, she was seriously injured.
Based on the fact that she was his wife in a previous life, Lin Feng treated her injuries and raised her as his little companion.
“Xiao Mew, do you want to go back into the capsule?”
“Mew Mew~ Mew~ (No! I don’t like staying inside~ It’s too small~)”
The soft and sweet voice sounded, making Lin Feng’s face ripple with delight. He then began to wash up and get dressed.
Mew Xiaosi also conveniently perched on top of Lin Feng’s head.
Without eating breakfast, Lin Feng headed straight out, glancing back at his villa.
“This place I’ve lived in for ten years… I’m leaving it today.”
Taking a nostalgic look at the villa, Lin Feng looked around, took a deep breath, and walked towards the academy.
“Mew~ Mew Mew~ (Xiaofeng, are you feeling down?)”
“It’s nothing.”
Lin Feng reached out and patted Mew Xiaosi’s head.
The currency in this world is Saier Coins, and becoming a Trainer is too costly for an average family.
To address the financial issue, Lin Feng published a paper titled “On the Issue of Elf Super Evolution” a year ago, which resolved his funding problem.
With a subscription price of two Saier Coins, and with the human population in the universe numbering in the tens of billions, tens of billions of people subscribed at that time, giving him assets of over nine billion. He was also certified as an Elf Professor by the Alliance.
Moreover, the paper continued to gain subscriptions!
Every year, the Alliance also grants him five hundred million in research funds.
Half an hour later, upon arriving at the academy and entering the classroom, Lin Feng looked towards the second-to-last seat by the window on the right side.
He then walked over and sat down in that seat.
This was undoubtedly the protagonist’s seat!
As the saying goes…
The back row by the window, the homeland of kings!
“Damn! Dr. Lin Feng, you didn’t even say a word when you came?”
Beside him, a chubby guy saw Lin Feng arrive and, without saying a word, lunged at him.
This made Mew Xiaosi extremely displeased. Her eyes flashed with golden light, and a barrier enveloped her and Lin Feng, keeping the chubby guy outside.
“Sun Zhuang, what are you doing?”
Lin Feng was extremely displeased. This guy, like an idiot, kept bothering him every day.
To be honest, having the title of Elf Professor brought Lin Feng endless trouble every day. If it wasn’t a classmate seeking him out, it was a teacher asking him to give a lecture.
“Hehe.”
Sun Zhuang chuckled foolishly, scratching his head, and asked, “I just wanted to know where you’re traveling to.”
“Why?”
Lin Feng looked at him with interest and smiled, “Even if I travel with others, I only go with young ladies. Why are you asking?”
“LSP!”
Sun Zhuang flipped him the middle finger, then his eyes twinkled as he asked, “Hehe, which elf are you going to choose later?”
“Let’s see what elves are available,” Lin Feng thought for a moment and said.
“As expected, we can’t compare to the big shots.”
Sun Zhuang laughed and said, “The starter trio is pretty good. If I could choose, I would definitely pick the Little Fire Monkey!”
“You don’t know anything!”
A young man wearing a tank top, with bulging muscles, walked over, glanced at Sun Zhuang, and said arrogantly, “A real man should choose Yi You!”
Lin Feng: “…”
Sun Zhuang: “…”
Mew Xiaosi: “…”
The two of them and the elf were speechless upon hearing the young man’s words.
The starter trio consists of the Fire-type Little Fire Monkey, Water-type Yi You, and Grass-type Bubu Seed.
Yi You’s cute appearance is most appealing to girls.
However, rare elves like the starter trio were provided by the Alliance to top-performing students, and it was considered fortunate if an academy gets three each year.
At this moment, the classroom door was pushed open, and the homeroom teacher walked in. The students instantly returned to their seats, and the entire class quieted down.
After scanning all the students, the homeroom teacher’s gaze lingered on Lin Feng for a moment.
“No need to sit down. Now, head to the playground to receive your elves and begin your journey!”
