Chapter 41.2 – Author: Only a pure person can touch a unicorn.

The clatter of hooves came nearer and Du Ze watched as Xiu, riding a unicorn, came to him. The sun covered Xiu with a layer of light and the silver-haired elf sitting on the white unicorn gazed silently at him, a vision so holy that he would not dare to blaspheme.

Du Ze gazed uneasily at the unicorn. It looked like a large white horse with a spiral horn on top of its head. Its mane was pure white. As Du Ze looked at it, the unicorn became increasingly irritable and restless, pawing its hooves and swinging its tail. It looked like it wanted to retreat, but it was firmly under Xiu’s command and could only obediently stay where it was. When Du Ze reached out to touch its spiral horn, the unicorn reacted with extreme fear. Blue flames burst forth and covered its hooves, mane, and tail as it suddenly turned into a nightmare.

This creature that has two forms, unicorn and nightmare, is one of Xiu’s pets. Of all the pets in Xiu’s stable, the unicorn/nightmare’s fighting abilities are not on par with the Phoenix and Cerberus, but it is the fastest mount. In addition, it has a special characteristic – only a pure person can touch a unicorn … pure person …

Although he knew that spiritual beasts always react negatively to him, but when he thought of the legends regarding the unicorn’s nature, Du Ze was silent – ah, ****, why did you react that way? Are you saying that this young man is not pure?!

Xiu patted the nightmare’s neck, and made it kneel down. He reached out a hand to Du Ze: “Come on up.”

Du Ze could have sworn that he saw despair and shock in the eyes of the nightmare, as though it was going to be carried off by a scoundrel. It looked at Du Ze then looked at Xiu and bowed its head gloomily, as if saying “he is annoying, you are indifferent.”

The annoying Du Ze angrily mounted the horse and sat on the saddle with the indifferent, heartless Xiu.

The nightmare stood up ponderously and began to run toward the Tree of Life. Its burning hooves flew over the lake, making ripples form, but they did not sink down into the water. Since this mount could disregard the law of gravity, it stepped on the leaves of the Tree of Life and jumped up higher and higher until it reached the top. Du Ze felt as though his teeth were going to break, not just from the jolting ride, but also from the nightmare’s trembling.

When Du Ze climbed down from the nightmare, it was hard to tell which one of the two poor creatures was more relieved. The nightmare ran away the instant Du Ze dismounted. Du Ze looked at the mount that had just left, feeling lonely. He missed the trembling little chick, that baby Fire Phoenix. The longing was so intense that he even imagined that he could hear the little chick’s tender cry.

“Chirp.”

… Wait, it’s not an illusion?

Some stupid, cute person looked at the direction of the chirping and his face was painfully struck by a small, fluffy animal. The little chick was in the middle of his face and cheerily crying out: “Chirp! Chirp~”

Du Ze stretched out his thumb and forefinger and picked up the aggressive fluff ball from his face. The little chick that was grabbed by Du Ze spread its wings and continued to act cute: “Chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp~”

This familiar, silly, acting cute attitude – it’s unmistakably that cute Phoenix. Du Ze looked at the little fluff ball this way and that, speechless. Hadn’t this grown up? Why did it become a chick? How did it return to its appearance from before he returned from the Wheel of Time?!

“During the battle in the Elven Forest, the elf War God defeated it.” Xiu took the trouble to explain matters to Du Ze: “It took some time to regenerate.”

A Phoenix cannot die because when they are killed, they can bathe in fire and be born again. This is one of the reasons why they are called god beasts. He carelessly allowed the fluffy beast to escape from his grip, and the small Phoenix flapped its wings and rushed to its favorite place. This time, its flying skills had improved so it no longer flew crookedly. It went straight to the top of Du Ze’s head.

Silly, cute thing! Stop combining with this young man,1 the cuteness attribute will double. ****! Get off this young man’s head!

The two silly, cute creatures were tangled up with each other, the black hair and yellow feathers entwined. Meanwhile, Xiu walked to the center of the altar and touched the golden branch. Gently holding the branch in his hand, Xiu seemed to be communicating with the Tree of Life. When Xiu removed his hand, the golden branch did not droop but stood upright.

Du Ze stopped fighting with the small Phoenix and looked at the golden branch while the small Phoenix held onto a lock of his hair. The tip of the golden branch slowly grew a flower bud, the golden petals tightly wrapped together. Then the petals opened and a matchless golden flower bloomed. Dozens of petals surrounded its stamen. The flower was soul-stirringly beautiful. But the beauty was gone soon as the golden petals withered, leaving only a black-brown orb.

Xiu picked up the round object and Du Ze can’t help but ask: “What is that?”

“The seed of the Tree of Life.” Xiu put the seed away and explained: “The elves can’t stay here, so I will let them live in the Gnome Ruins.”

Du Ze was surprised. The “Mixed Blood” novel did not have this story arc. Xiu did harvest a race that became his younger brothers (his allies), but it was too difficult for the dark elves to go to the Chaos Continent. Therefore Xiu left the elves in the care of Ariel and his subordinates before going to join the mercenary guild, thus triggering the Gnome Ruins plot.

Now that Xiu destroyed the Elven Forest and broke the barrier of the elves, it won’t be long before the other races become curious and start exploring the elves’ territory. The Gnome Ruins are underground, which is indeed suitable for the darkness-loving dark elves. Down there, they can avoid the sunlight that they now hate. Under the leadership of the Moe Lord, the elves will soon be able to build a new city beneath the earth. Du Ze found this new farming subplot interesting. In addition, now he and Xiu can separate, and he will be able to find an opportunity to deal with the important matter at hand, the doujinshi.

Cute Lord, you can go and farm with your people while this young man will take care of the doujinshi.

Therefore, on the day of the elves’ departure, some silly, cute person bade Xiu farewell.

“Are you going to the human Empire?”

Du Ze nodded: “I have something to do.”

Then Du Ze could only watch as Xiu called Old John over and asked him to lead the elves to the Gnome Ruins. He was obviously handing over control of this task to Old John.

“You don’t have to accompany me.” Du Ze hurriedly interrupted Xiu – are you kidding me? Moe Lord, if you go with this young man, how can he take back the doujinshi? He said: “You have a lot of things to manage …”

“Don’t worry,” said Old John. “You and the little master can go out to play. Leave these trifles to me.”

Du Ze looked sadly at Old John. In his heart, a river of tears was flowing.

Noticing Du Ze’s hesitation, the silver-haired elf sitting on the unicorn suddenly said: “You want me to like the world, right?”

Du Ze nodded. Xiu leaned down from the unicorn, grabbed Du Ze, and mounted him on the unicorn, which got scared and suddenly turned into a nightmare. This happened too fast for Du Ze to react in time. Xiu whispered in his ear: “Then show me how beautiful this world is.”

He said this one sentence and Du Ze was left without a rejoinder.

******

******

You want me to see the world?

Then look at me. If you don’t look at me, I don’t know what to do.

– [black box]

The author has something to say:

[The Reader, rich in theory and abstract knowledge, meets the Unicorn]

Unicorn: (on guard, facing an enemy)

[The Protagonist, rich in practical experience, meets the Unicorn]

Unicorn: (begs for a touch, wants to be stroked)

Author: Only a pure person can touch a unicorn.

Reader: Liar!!! QAQ

  1. I think like the way Transformers can combine to form a bigger robot.

  1. Our family’s used to be God and now he is the world. Xiao Xiu your love is too great but don’t over do it. I can’t resort to just eating sour dog food all the time.

  2. Me: (goes near the unicorn)
    Unicorn:(got scared turned into a nightmare)
    Me: !!!

    I know, I’ve been unpure since i discover ma babies hahaha

    1. Me: (goes neae the unicorn)
      Unicorn: (instantly turn into a thestral)
      Me: …The fudge…? (ಠ_ಠ)

  3. It’s somewhat ominous that it’s called a black box. One usually wouldn’t listen to the recordings unless everything went so wrong that there’s nobody left to tell the story.

    1. Holy- so you think that black box is like a recording?? Oh my- that opened my eyes. IT MAKES SENSE. IM SCARED

    1. This doesn’t make sense! Because he restores every midnight the doujinshi should be with him! How is it still with Eric? His restore power still works because his eyesight and hearing went back to their original state. Or did I miss something?

    2. Commenter above, restore power doesn’t have TP abilities. Du Ze was able to give his shirt to Dan in turn for the demon sword. The only reason the ripped up doujin restored on his side instead of Xiu’s is because Du Ze had more than 50% of the doujin with him

    1. Well, technically it was Du Ze that rubbed one out for Xiu, so maybe that’s why he’s not pure but Xiu is? 😂 Xiu hasn’t actually touched any d**k yet…

    1. Yup, I think so. He built his harem after the world betrayed him, not before. (So during the time Du Ze met him is when Xiu would have started building his harem). Before that he was your typical oblivious to love protagonist, only adventure focused not thinking about romance.

      On one of the beginning chapters it showed one of his female companions beginning to have a crush on him but then everything went downhill and Xiu was betrayed by everyone including any girl he helped. It is alluded that he didn’t have any romantic partners before that time, so he was most likely a virgin (and still is, poor Xiu waiting on Du Ze XD).

      It is also implied multiple times that Xiu lacks “that knowledge.” When Du Ze give Xiu “a rub” Xiu implied it himself, that he is lacking knowledge that’s why he needed Du Ze to “teach him” the ways.

  4. Hahhaha so now it’s realky jpurney to the west finding the holy doujinshi XD
    I hope there will be more lovey dovey momentd between them ^^

  5. DuZe: so I’ll be going now(to retrieve the book of naughtiness)
    Xiu: Where are you goin?
    DuZe: o uh … just goin to get something
    Xiu: oh? *Pulls out the doujin that he has* like this thing?
    Du Ze: 😧
    Xiu: i have some parts I don’t get, why don’t you help me figure it out. *drags DuZe to the room*
    DuZe: panick*

  6. Well the little chick imprinted on the cute silly reader but have you forgotten that it is also trembling in fear but because it imprinted, it tries to denies it fear so that it can cuddle to Du Ze

  7. Little Fluffy Ninja Sheep

    In an alternate universe pt 2:
    *two people flying on a pegasus*
    Cold faced awkward prince Du Ze: I can show you the world~~
    Low-key smooth Xiu: I’ve already seen it…. You’re my world.
    Du Ze: … *doki doki*

  8. All the Aladdin references have me rolling on the floor 🤣! So does that make Du de: Aladdin, Xiu: Jasmine, Nightmare: Magic Carpet, Baby Phoenix: Abu and Doujinshi: Genie! 😂😂Thanks for translating!

  9. When you think about it, doesn’t Xiu already think the world is beautiful? Because Du Ze is his world? Maybe Xiu just wants to spend some quality time with the hubby!
    Thanks for the chapter like always!

  10. Du Ze you can never get rid of Xiu lol he’s attach to you by hip 😂😂😂😂😂

    So don’t bother trying to get rid of him.

    Du Ze: I can show you the world~

    Xiu:……. (eight races tonight? Hmm…🤔)

  11. PrettyDamnCritical

    Xiu probably knows what Du Ze is going to look for. How could he not want to read it too after getting a taste of it. Learning to pleasure his little hubby is important after all ❤

  12. Thank you for the update as always! Hahahah! Poor sillu, cute person. As ifhecould get away from Xiu. Now… I guess we will know soon why Eric wants Du Ze (which of course will be complicated to know since there’s a dedicated yandere in love who will most likely not allow his beloved to be in contact with someone who kidnapped him).

  13. Thanks for the chapter!

    Du Ze: The bane of all the spiritual beasts, except the chick *until now*

    Yeahh, the journey to get back his partner(doujinshi). This is getting interesting~

  14. I can show you the world~
    Shining, shimmering, spleeeendid~
    (Imagining stone-faced Du Ze in Aladin-get-up singing to Xiu in the frightened nightmare)

  15. Don’t worry, soon you won’t be pure anymore anyway, so don’t bother with that unicorn, DZ. 😆

    ‘In addition, now he and Xiu can separate’

    Silly, naive DZ. As if Xiu will let you out of his sight.

    1. For a moment there I thought there would be some sort of drama but thank goodness Xiu just immediately put a stop to that.

  16. douijinshi -> doujin-san got additional letter to it’s name. Don’t mind much doujin-san, there’s only you in that world

    Poor sweet cinnamon roll, being implied as impure. Well, Xiu is going to put all his practical experience to this sweet cinnamon roll soon

  17. First!!!
    It’s seems animals kingdom will automatically afraid of DuZe… When Xiu transform to beast or dragon form, is Xiu will automatically retreat from DuZe?? That’s good.. It’s not good if its just Xiu that always have to take initiative, DuZe must too…when Xiu body automatically retreat DuZe will feel more sad and will understand his feelings more (my imagination)… And we will know eventually why animals automatically afraid of DuZe..
    So …angel form next ??because we will meet Saint Vivian??
    Thanks translator for your hardwork

  18. Are you saying our reader is not pure or are you implying that our cute silly person make others think impure thought? Ahhh.
