1
Why are those little spirits touching the hand of that beautiful girl so brilliant?
2
Does she have any magical powers?
3
Let's find out with fairy tales now.
4
Once upon a time, in the village, there was a very beautiful lady named Lena.
5
Although Lena is the only daughter of the village chief, she is not only unarrogant, but also extremely honest, always enthusiastic to help people around.
6
Therefore, she is always loved by everyone.
7
Lately, for no reason, her small village has suffered a long drought.
8
The land is dry, so food is increasingly scarce.
9
Even though it was customary for her father to go to the temple to ask the goddess to bless the people, this time, there was no change at all.
10
Lena was restless and decided to join her father in praying again.
11
However, when the two just walked in front of the temple gate, suddenly, black clouds came, covering the sky.
12
Not only that, when her father had just set foot in the palace, suddenly, a lightning struck the sky, carrying the bright light and turning her father into a stone statue.
13
Oh no, Dad!
14
Why did this happen?
15
Lena had just finished speaking.
16
Hestia, the goddess of the temple, appeared to her in a proud serious manner.
17
Huh, don't cry and beg for anything else.
18
It was your father who had committed great contempt for the gods.
19
So you all have to suffer the whole things.
20
Many days ago, when your father came to the temple, he knocked down the spiritual fire that cultivated long ago way too unreservedly.
21
Not only that, he dared to put out my flame with his sword.
22
This is unacceptable, and he has to pay for what he's done.
23
Goddess, please forgive my father and people.
24
My father must have just inadvertently caused it without even knowing its importance.
25
So, please show mercy to my father and the villagers so that they can overcome this long tribulation.
26
They've worked so hard in the sun, used up all their food reserves and had to travel to many places.
27
Therefore, I also willingly give everything to save him and everyone.
28
Seeing Lina's prayerful sincerity, Hestia's angry face gradually changed.
29
Alright, I'll make a deal with you as a way for you to make atonement for that clumsy father and save everyone.
30
You helped me gather the spirits of water, fire and light.
31
The elements of the fairy forest so
32
that I may have more magic to cultivate my powers
33
When you finish the quest I will spare your father as well as the others Lena thanked Astia and went home.
34
She picked up her belongings and took her beloved father's sword and set out
35
Throughout the difficult road Lena finally found the gate to the fairy forest However,
36
the god guarding the gate was determined not to let it through Please let me get into the forest.
37
I need to find the elemental spirits to help the Hescha goddess restore magic, as well as save the lives of my people and my father.
38
Well, an ordinary person like you can't set foot in this land.
39
Please!
40
Then the god summoned the sword in his hand and threatened Lina.
41
I'm sorry sir, but my people and my father are in danger, so I have to be rude to you.
42
So, Lena tried to pull out her father's sword and come up against the attack of the god.
43
Only after seeing Lena's sword, the god was surprised and stopped fighting with him.
44
How do you get the sword?
45
This is the gift I gave to a brave man of great heart who helped the people of this forest.
46
It was my father, but my father was turned into stone after committing unknowingly a sin against the goddess Hescha.
47
I beg you to help me find the three spirits in the fairy forest.
48
Turns out, you're his descendant.
49
That explained why you are strong, and you can use this divine sword.
50
Alright, I'll let you in.
51
But you should remember that only worthy person of pure purpose
52
and honest heart can gather three spirits and have the ultimate source of magic to cultivate.
53
Thank you very much, I got it.
54
Seeing Lena's eyes filled with optimistic and hope, the god immediately took her into the forest where the three spirits were shining brightly.
55
Elemental spirits, I am here for no evil purpose
56
but to ask for your help to save the innocent people and my poor father.
57
Therefore, may you understand my plea and join me in returning to the small village.
58
The elemental spirits looked towards the divine sword and gradually understood the deep prayer,
59
hurriedly shining brightly on her hand lena was very happy thanked the guardian god and quickly returned
60
when she arrived at the temple lena immediately handed over three spirits to the goddess
61
however the goddess did not directly touch the power source but used a divine bag to carry her
62
lena felt a little strange when she saw the three spirits gradually change color
63
but she did not have time to ask anything.
64
Suddenly, there was dark smoke around the temple, and the goddess of fire, Castilla, was in front of her, immediately forming the Demon King.
65
He threw Lena's father to prevent her from ruining the transformation of the spirits.
66
The elemental spirits are finally in my hands.
67
Now, no one can accomplish my plan to take over this land.
68
It turned out that before that, the Demon King had hypnotized Lena's father father with his sword to extinguish the goddess's fire
69
that weakened her and then was kept captive.
70
After that, the demon king also caused people's lives miserable.
71
Knowing that Lena was a talented person with an honest heart, he decided to disguise as the goddess Hestia and ask Lena for the three elemental spirits from the fairy forest.
72
After possessing three spirits in his hand, He immediately disables the magic of them with the magic bag and transforms them into dark magic.
73
Seeing the three spirits gradually controlled, Lena took the opportunity and tried to retrieve the bag.
74
Lena embraced the three spirits in her arms, but by the moment, they were completely transformed and conquered by the Demon King.
75
Not only that, the Demon King also quickly controlled the elemental spirits to return to him
76
and began to use his power to destroy everyone.
77
Seeing what was going on, Lena was terrified and in pain of not being able to save her father and the people.
78
I did my best, but the strength of a man as ordinary as I could not fight against a demon king, I'm so useless.
79
No, Lena, you fought bravely.
80
I'm sure you won't give up so easily.
81
Dad, is that you?
82
Only in response to Lena, there was only silence from the statue, but she was still trying to motivate herself.
83
You can't answer me right now, I know, but those words have given me the extra motivation to fight
84
and the determination not to let it end like this.
85
Then, Lina struggled drawing her sword and rushed to the demon.
86
During the battle, she tried to resist and dodge the demon's moves and used her agility to cut towards the three spirits.
87
The three spirits gradually restored their power, shifted from the dark color to their inherent quintessential beauty and helped Lena beat the Demon King.
88
Nooooooo!
89
The Demon King finally vanished, and the fire goddess Hestia was released from captivity.
90
Then, the goddess of fire gathered up the three spirits and helped David, Lena's father, become a human again.
91
Lena, on this journey you've proved to us courageous, indomitable, and sacrificial spirit for others.
92
Therefore, I give you the water spirit, and hope you can rule this land with me for the better.
93
My pleasure!
94
Lena then happily joined her father in using the water spirit that had just been given to bring water to the people.
95
In the end, Lena and everyone lived together happily, warmly, and richly forever after.
96
In the ancient gem land There was a mysterious cave the
97
birthplace of talented gems with the task of protecting the peace of this place in
98
Particular with the birth of Jasper a person who was somewhat impulsive
99
But always enthusiastic to help others together with a gentle careful
100
lapis Gradually the beautiful friendship of the two best gem warriors also flourished and united in the fight against the demons
101
Not only that, but they also possessed a great fusion ability, a symbol of solidarity called Malachite.
102
One day, when the Malachite fusion threw out demons in a forest, they saved Jamie, who claimed to be the king of this land.
103
Thank you for saving me and everyone else.
104
This favor, I don't know how to return it.
105
I wish to be your friend.
106
Faced with the handsome and gentle boy, Jasper and Lapis' hearts suddenly fluttered and immediately returned to their true form to talk to him.
107
This is the mission of gems like us!
108
And if we can be friends with you, we are always willing.
109
Thank you both very much!
110
Hmm...
111
However, day by day, Jasper and Lapis' feelings for Jaime deepened, and neither of them gave up, so they decided to confess to him together.
112
I'm sorry, ladies.
113
Because my country has a rule, each king can only marry one queen, And that queen must be smart, strong, and...
114
Possess the Ring of Power, which has the ability to control the power of the land in this forest.
115
However, this ring is located deep in the dark cave, where it had many kinds of thorns, illusions, scary surrounding it that ordinary people can't easily enter.
116
But I believe that with my magic, I can get the ring, and become your wife.
117
Then Jasper and Lapis attempted to fuse into Malachite to make it easier to get there, but they failed.
118
Maybe because the jealousy of love has created a competitive and disunity thought, so we can't unite?
119
Well, if we can't fuse into Malachite, let's use our own abilities to get the ring!
120
Soon, Jasper and Lapis reached the giant Thorn Forest, the first gate to reach the Dark Cave cave.
121
However, no matter how hard they tried to overcome them, the thorns grew more and more and created an illusion, sending the tool back to the starting point.
122
Suddenly, Lapis noticed the moving trees creating various paths that made them lose their way.
123
Well, if this land of thorns can't be crossed by going through it, I'd better create a bridge of thorns across the air to cross it.
124
Think of it.
125
Lapis used her magic to make the thorn bigger, spreading like a bridge to cross.
126
Not only that, but for fear that Jasper might to catch up with her, Lapis also cast a spell to make the surrounding thorns grow taller and stronger to block Jasper's way.
127
Sorry Jasper, because I really love Jamie, I have to apologize to you this time.
128
Disgusting!
129
If you still want to get Jamie, then don't blame me!
130
With that, Jasper turned out the thorning butterflies surrounding Lapis, and then took the opportunity to rush forward.
131
Finally, that bridge also led to the Dark Cane, where the Ring of Power was kept.
132
However, when Jasper was about to go in to get the Ring, she was stopped by a magical wall, and at the same time, the Guardian God of the Ring also appeared.
133
Little girls, you must be like many others who want to come here to find the Ring of Power.
134
However, the owner of the Ring must be a wise person.
135
So if you can answer this question of mine, I'll let you in, and remember, you only have one chance to answer.
136
I understand!
137
Please tell me the question!
138
What is underwater and on fire?
139
Not boiling, but only dry.
140
Standing full at night and hiding during the day.
141
What?
142
Eager to get inside, Lapis had already caught up.
143
Jasper hurriedly replied, Is it a volcano?
144
I know firelight, not a- Sorry, your answer is wrong.
145
Next person.
146
After the puzzle failed, Jasper looked sadly at Lapis, who was also pondering the answer.
147
Well, I'm sure Lapis wouldn't know the answer either.
148
It's Enoyla.
149
The one that Jasper gave me the first day we met.
150
The answer is absolutely correct.
151
Please come in.
152
The Sentinel immediately turned out the flying stones that led to the Ring of Power, and then disappeared.
153
I'm finally getting the ring, but why.. why do I feel so sad?
154
Is it because Jasper isn't around?
155
When Lapis was about to return to see Jasper's situation, suddenly Jasper jumped up and used magic to control Lapis.
156
Jasper, let me go.
157
I don't want to hurt you.
158
No!
159
If I let you go, you'll have Jamie's love!
160
I...
161
Because they were not paying attention during the scuffle, the two of them accidentally caused the ring pillar to collide, resulting in a big tremor in the cave.
162
This caused sharp stalactites to fall towards them, as well as the ring of power.
163
Careful!
164
It was when Jasper reframed that she suddenly understood the urgency in front of her.
165
One side was her best friend Lapis, who was about to fall into the thorn trap below, and the other side was the ring that was in danger of being destroyed by a large rock.
166
While Jasper was about to choose the ring, she accidentally saw her reflection on the ring pillar and was startled.
167
Why?
168
Why did I end up like this?
169
For a ring?
170
To abandon my best friend who is willing to sacrifice herself for my own sake?
171
No, I have to save her!
172
After contemplating what just happened, Jasper decided to choose to save her best friend.
173
However, while Jasper was trying to pull Lapis' hand up, someone suddenly jumped by, Using the two as a springboard and keeping the ring safe.
174
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
175
I finally got the ring of power!
176
Jamie!
177
As it turned out, it was Jamie, a demon disguised as a human, who deliberately made use of the magic of Jasper and Lapis from the beginning to obtain the ring.
178
He had followed and watched Jasper and Lapis all the way here, and waited for the opportunity to claim the treasure.
179
Disgusting demon!
180
Because of you, I almost lost my best friend!
181
We will definitely beat you!
182
That's awesome!
183
But now let's see how the magic of the ring will defeat the warriors of the Gem Land!
184
Having said that, Jaime summoned his power and split Jasper
185
and Lapis into two to prevent them from forming Malachite to defeat him.
186
Jasper and Lapis struggled, but the ring's magic was too great for them to turn the tide.
187
Lapis, I'm sorry for trusting a bad guy to treat you badly.
188
I was so immature and thoughtless that I acted so rudely!
189
Jasper, I'm also sorry for believing too much in love without thinking, and accepting to confront you.
190
Although you can be quick-tempered and impulsive at times, but your nature is a kind person who is enthusiastic to help people, so I am very happy to be friends with you.
191
Even if I have to sacrifice, I will still hold your hands tightly, like before.
192
Despite the magical distance created by Jamie, Jasper and Lapis still managed to reach out their arms toward each other.
193
In the end, their powerful beams of light touched each other and helped them fuse into Malachite.
194
Jamie!
195
Give back the Ring of Power and surrender!
196
Well, even if you become Malachite, I won't lose easily.
197
Jamie used the Ring of Power to direct the sharp stones towards Malachite, but was stopped by her.
198
Enraged, Jamie continued to summon flying rockbirds to ambush them, and gradually caused Malachite to be repelled.
199
The power of the ring is too strong.
200
We can hardly defeat him.
201
Even so, I believe we can still defeat him if we unite, believe, and move forward together.
202
As soon as she finished speaking, a light suddenly appeared in Malachite's hand and transformed into a bow of friendship.
203
Malachite watched with delight at the bow in her hand and then fired a composite arrow, knocking down all the birds with Jamie with magical light.
204
No!
205
It's impossible!
206
No!
207
In the end, everything went back to the way it was before, and so did the two girls.
208
Jasper, thank you for giving us hope to win over Jamie.
209
No, it should be thanks to both of us, who have just experienced a valuable lesson about friendship, and knowing the value of trust, forgiveness, and mutual respect.
210
And now once again, let's be good friends.
211
Let's move forward and develop ourselves together.
212
Since then, Jasper and Lapis have continued to accompany each other on the next journeys.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
