"Sir chairman, can't you think of a way?"
Ancato who had taken over from Heinz as the manager of the New Flyer's household magic machine workshop pointed at the empty space outside the factory and said with a distressed look, "Those fellows are blocking the entrance of our factory every day. Now the materials used in our workshop have to be checked by them before they can come in, so it's delaying our production."
"That's right, chairman, our magic machine workshop is also being affected.
If this continues, not to mention the orders of the Falcao Chamber of Commerce and the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce, it might even affect the orders of the Agriculture Department. "Camby on the side also looked like he had a headache.
"I really don't understand, just what are you humans thinking?
Isn't it just an elf, is there a need for all these people to come and watch her every day? "
"You don't understand, this is called chasing stars."
Xu Yi gave a helpless sigh. Looking at the dense crowd that had filled the empty space outside the factory, he also felt a headache coming on.
Since Agnes had appeared at the product announcement, it had created a wild wave. Countless people had rushed to the New Flyer just to take a look at Agnes.
In the beginning, the news had only spread in Banta City, so there were only people from Banta City who came.
After a few days, the newspapers in the surrounding cities published this explosive news. Not only did the nearby Saltan City and Karma City attract countless onlookers, even Canberra City and Norton City, which were further away, had a lot of people coming to watch.
There were even quite a few people from Cramer City and the kingdom's capital Anvilmar City who had heard the news.
Now in the empty space outside the New Flyer factory, there were over ten thousand people densely packed together!
With all these people tightly surrounding the factory, naturally it had a large effect on the normal production of the factory. This made Ancato and Camby who were in charge of production fill their stomachs with complaints.
Xu Yi at first thought that these fellows were just here for fun and once the excitement passed, they would naturally scatter.
Who would have thought that after an entire week, the people outside the factory wouldn't decrease at all and would gradually increase.
Seeing the fanatical looks on the faces of the people outside, Xu Yi could only give a bitter laugh.
Although he had seen the fanaticism and even the horror of groupies on Earth, when it was his turn to deal with such a thing, he still felt a headache.
To these people, Agnes' attractiveness was even greater than the fans of the superstars on earth.
After all, to almost all humans, elves only existed in legends. Now that a real elf had suddenly appeared, the shock it brought was naturally incomparable.
After seriously considering it for a while, Xu Yi felt that this matter could not be allowed to continue like this. Otherwise, it would only get worse.
"Agnes, come out." Xu Yi suddenly shouted into the air.
The space to the left of Xu Yi distorted and Agnes' figure appeared.
Even though he had seen Agnes' appearance several times by Xu Yi's side, when he saw Agnes' exquisite and beautiful face appear before his eyes, Ancato couldn't help but take a few more glances. His expression was filled with curiosity and admiration.
Seeing his reaction, Camby couldn't help but ask, "Hey, Ancato, why do you humans have such a big reaction when you see elves?
Is it because Agnes is beautiful? "
Ancato's face turned slightly red after being exposed by Camby. He explained, "It's not entirely because she is beautiful ….. Of course, young miss Agnes is very beautiful. Even compared to young miss Stiel, she doesn't pale in comparison.
But more importantly, it's because I'm curious. Who told me to personally see elves for the first time in my life?
I think most of the people outside the factory are just like me, purely curious. "
"Then according to your words, the reason why you don't have any special reaction when you see us dwarves is because you often see us, so you aren't curious at all?" Camby asked again.
"En ….. more or less." Ancato muttered.
"Actually when I first came here and saw all these dwarves, I was also very surprised, but I wasn't that curious.
After all, although there are few dwarves, they can be seen in many places.
For example, in Banta City, including master Ram, you can often see three or four dwarves.
You'll get used to it after seeing it, so of course you won't be curious. "
"That's right."
Xu Yi replied before turning to Agnes and saying, "Look, Agnes, the reason why we humans have such a big reaction to you elves is because you are too rare.
If we could see you every day, we would quickly get used to it and wouldn't be that curious, so we could treat you normally. "
Agnes looked at the people outside the factory and nodded, "Un, it should be like this."
"So come out with me now and let these fellows gradually get used to your existence." Xu Yi pulled Agnes over and softly said a few words before walking out of the office with her.
When they came out of the office, the crowd outside the factory broke out in cheers.
"Look, it's Chairman Xu!
Chairman Xu is coming out! "
"Ah, look who's behind Chairman Xu?
It's young miss Agnes! "
"God!
I've finally seen young miss Agnes again!
She's still this charming!
Just seeing her, I'm so happy that I want to faint! "
"Oh, great young miss elf, please let me kiss your jade feet!
I'm willing to be your slave for a lifetime! "
"Scram!
With your pig like appearance, are you worthy of being a slave to the incomparably honourable young miss Agnes?
If you want to be a slave, it should be me! "
… …
Seeing Agnes appear, the crowd that had been holding back was like a bowl of cold water being poured into a pot of hot oil, exploding.
The dense crowd was like a dam bursting, turning into a giant wave as they charged at Xu Yi and Agnes. They instantly broke through the crude wooden fence outside the factory and flattened all the dirt outside the factory.
Xu Yi knit his brows and raised his hand. With a wave of his hand, the magic inside him surged and an earth wall that was half a meter tall and as thick as a person appeared less than twenty meters away from the front, blocking everyone's path.
Then he waved his hand again and two small hurricanes came out of his hands, forcefully slowing down the crowd's momentum.
The earth wall and the strong hurricanes made the excited crowd calm down. Starting from the crowd in front, the crowd gradually slowed down and finally stopped in front of the earth wall.
Seeing the crowd calm down, Xu Yi let out a sigh of relief.
It was a good thing that he had released two hurricanes in time to slow down everyone's speed, otherwise in this situation, it would be too easy for people to be trampled.
If a few lives were lost because of this, not only would the New Flyer be cursed, even Agnes would be blamed for nothing.
With Agnes' current attitude towards humans, just because of this, it might cause elder Elucía's efforts to be wasted.
Xu Yi waved his hand again and used his magic to raise several earth walls of varying heights. Then he and Agnes stepped onto the highest earth wall.
"Friends, I know that you all want to see young miss Agnes. She is here right now and has a few words to say to you, so please be quiet and listen carefully."
As soon as Xu Yi's voice fell, the noisy crowd instantly quieted down. Everyone's eyes gathered on Agnes beside Xu Yi.
"Crazy fans really are terrifying."
Xu Yi could only secretly sigh. He gave Agnes a look and moved back a step, leaving the highest position for Agnes.
Although Agnes had already appeared in front of the other humans in the New Flyer under Xu Yi's request and was already used to appearing in front of humans, she was no longer as uneasy as before. But appearing in front of so many people and being stared at by so many eyes, she was still a bit nervous.
Turning around to look at Xu Yi and seeing Xu Yi nod with a faint smile, Agnes' nervousness decreased a bit. She turned around to look at the dense crowd in front of her and after taking a few deep breaths using the method Xu Yi taught her, she raised her voice and said, "Hello ….. Hello everyone.
I ….. am very grateful that everyone is willing to see me and I'm very happy that our elven race has received the recognition and acceptance of so many humans.
Before leaving the tribe and coming here, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to adapt to living among humans.
But Chairman Xu told me that humans are warm and welcoming, so I didn't need to worry. "
"Looking at it now, Chairman Xu wasn't wrong.
Humans are not like what I thought they were before, they aren't all cunning and untrustworthy people. There are also many warm and good people like you.
But us elves are a race that likes peace and quiet. You are all too warm, so I'm not used to it. "
"Moreover, you are all outside the factory like this, it will affect the work here.
As a member of the New Flyer, I don't want to affect the company because of myself, so I hope that everyone can understand and not surround the factory like this in the future, alright? "
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. They never thought that Agnes would make this kind of request when she finally showed her face.
"But young miss Agnes, we just want to see you.
If we aren't here, how can we see you? "A person asked in a loud voice.
"That's right, we are all loyal supporters of young miss Agnes. We just want to see you and don't have any special requests, could it be that we can't even do this?"
"You can't say it like this, right?
Didn't you hear what young miss Agnes said? We are affecting the work of the New Flyer, so we are also affecting her. "
"Could it be that Chairman Xu is causing trouble for young miss Agnes?
How could this be.
Although I admire Chairman Xu, how could he not treat young miss Agnes well, no!
I don't agree! "
… …
Agnes never thought that her words would have the opposite effect. She couldn't help turning her head to look at Xu Yi for help.
Xu Yi revealed a faint smile, "Agnes, you don't need to consider me and the New Flyer. Just follow your true thoughts and say whatever you want."
Agnes was a bit hesitant, "But ….. According to the way humans interact with each other that Chairman Xu taught me, if I say my true thoughts, it might make them unhappy. That wouldn't be good, right?"
The smile on Xu Yi's face was a bit strange, "Be assured, just say it directly. I promise that it'll be fine.
Do you remember how you treated me when we first met?
But look, aren't we getting along very well now? "
"Is that so?"
Agnes thought about it and decided to believe in Xu Yi. She turned around again and met everyone's gazes. After pausing for a bit, her expression changed from a bit of nervousness to a bit of coldness and her voice also had a bit of coldness.
"I'll tell you the truth, I'm not happy that you're surrounding the factory like this.
Because this makes me feel like a monster, being surrounded by all kinds of strange gazes. I don't like this at all.
If you insist on doing this, then my choice is to leave this place and return to the tribe.
I will also tell the elders that you humans can't get along with us elves.
From now on, us elves will never appear in front of you humans again! "
