Chapter 1: OMG! Christmas in Deep Trouble!
Christmas was just around the corner.
The streets were adorned with illuminations, and people were excitedly choosing presents.
However, at Santa Claus’s house in the North Pole, a serious problem had arisen.
“Ugh! Why is it always so busy before Christmas?!”
Santa Claus’s daughter, Nicola, sighed deeply, watching the elves struggling with mountains of presents.
Her gaze was fixed on a TikTok video displayed on her phone screen.
A video of a reindeer performing a bizarre dance to upbeat music was playing.
“This winter, watch out for Reindeer Reindeer Disease! The main symptoms are an abnormal hunger and an obsession with carrots rather than presents! If a reindeer is begging for carrots in front of your house, it might have Reindeer Reindeer Disease!?”
The video’s comment section was overflowing with comments like, “My reindeer has been eating nothing but carrots lately!” and “Isn’t this seriously bad?”
“Nicola! TikTok again? Instead of watching that, tie those ribbons properly!”
Her mother’s stern voice came from behind her.
Nicola flinched and quickly shoved her phone into her pocket.
“I know, Mom! But this year’s Christmas is seriously in trouble! Because Reindeer Reindeer Disease is spreading!”
Reindeer Reindeer Disease.
It was a mysterious epidemic rapidly spreading among the reindeer.
Infected reindeer were seized by an abnormal hunger, especially showing an obsession with carrots.
For Santa Claus, who delivers presents to children all over the world every Christmas, reindeer are irreplaceable partners.
Those precious companions were now threatened by a mysterious disease.
“Your father said he’d do something about it with the magic carrot this year,”
Her mother said, stirring a steaming Christmas pudding in a huge pot.
Her puddings were known as the best in the elf world.
The sweet aroma of cinnamon and nutmeg filled the room.
“Mom, that’s seriously impossible. The magic carrot is a legendary item, and besides…”
Nicola’s words were interrupted by Santa Claus, who entered the room with heavy footsteps.
Dressed in his usual red suit, he usually wore a big smile, but today his face was flushed, and he slammed the Santa hat he was holding onto the floor.
“It’s terrible! The magic carrot has been stolen!”
At Santa’s words, Nicola and her mother exchanged glances.
They realized that this year’s Christmas was facing an unprecedented crisis, not just a busy period.
Silence hung heavy in the air as the firewood crackled in the room’s fireplace.
Chapter 2: The Culprit: A Crypto Elf!?
“Who… who could have done such a thing…”
While her mother muttered with a pale face, Santa, panting, began to explain. “The culprit is… the elf Gary!”
“Gary…? Seriously, no way!”
Nicola couldn’t hide her surprise.
Gary was an elf in charge of wrapping presents, a slightly annoying guy who always showed affection for Nicola. She couldn’t imagine that he, so serious and hardworking, would commit theft.
“He’s recently gotten into cryptocurrencies, and apparently he’s trying to sell the magic carrot on the black market to earn funds! The magic carrot is apparently traded at high prices in cryptocurrency trading communities as a rare and valuable item. Gary found out about this and aimed for a quick fortune.”
Santa slammed a letter, presumably left by Gary, onto the table.
It was hastily written: “To Santa. Goodbye, life like a crappy game! I’m going to become a cryptocurrency millionaire! May all normies explode! by Gary”
“…His language is the worst…”
Nicola was dumbfounded by Gary’s childish declaration of crime.
She couldn’t forgive him for ruining Christmas, and more than anything, she felt strong anger at Gary’s act of trying to use the precious magic carrot, so important for Christmas, for his own selfish desires. Gary, who always tried to give Nicola presents, had become a threat to Christmas in such a way. Nicola felt deep disappointment at his transformation.
“Dad, I’ll get the magic carrot back!”
Nicola grabbed Santa’s old leather jacket hanging on the wall and ran towards the fireplace chimney.
“Nicola! Where are you going? It’s dangerous!”
Ignoring her mother’s restraining voice, Nicola dashed out into the night with a determined expression.
The aurora borealis cast a magical light across the Arctic night sky.
Her heart burned with a strong sense of mission to protect precious Christmas.
The cold air outside stung her cheeks, but her determination remained unshaken.
