Chapter 4: Waiting for a Thousand Years

"You...... Seems to be able to understand me? Monarch Snake asked. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yes." Wrett nodded.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That's right. "The voice of the monarch snake is very leisurely. It was a long time before the Monarch Serpent continued to speak. Of course. Except for Wright, who could understand it, Dr. Taxus and Luki only thought that the monarch snake was barking.

"I was educated at a young age. The breeder who raised me said that I would be the first elf for some rookie trainer.

'You have to work hard, Fuji Snake Snake. Because the first elf, which is the most important thing for a rookie trainer, is a breeder who can't remember what it looks like, that's what it said at the time. I also believed his words. It's not like the other companions, who smiled and said 'yes' and then put the matter behind them. I've always remembered that.

And then I worked myself. I often go to fight against opponents. And then I was sent here.

'Soon I will be able to meet the trainer who is destined for me. What kind of person is he? What does he look like? Will he be nice to me? Can I help him make a career? I was nervous and excited thinking about these things.

…… Then, the waiting person never showed up. It hasn't been there, it's always been ...... Didn't show up.

The elves I sent with me have been gone for a long time. Even the elves who came here after me, and the elves who came here after me left. But I still haven't been taken away.

'Am I not good enough?' Am I too weak? I don't have the qualifications to be a sprite for some rookie trainer? ’

After that, I trained myself even harder.

I fought the elves who were deposited here. I think that since they can be chosen, then if I can defeat them, I can prove my strength, right? That way, I can meet my trainer, right?

But no.

Still not.

I can already defeat a lot of elves. But no one came to take me away.

I still don't know why. Maybe...... Or am I too weak?

I continued to train myself hard...... But one day, I defeated all the elves that lived here. After all the elves were no match for me, this situation still didn't change.

I...... Did you do something wrong?

I wondered.

It wasn't until one day, when I overheard the words of the elf doctor, that I realized that I had indeed done something wrong.

'Initial elves distributed to newcomers. It must be the initial form of the Imperial Family. Other than that, neither. That's what the Doctor said at the time.

And not long after I was sent here, I had already evolved into a green vine snake.

I see, that's why I wasn't taken...... I work hard, and the reason I'm wrong is that I'm trying too hard.

But weren't those people who taught me to work so hard? All the elves of the Royal Three Families will be educated like this after being chosen. I did exactly what the breeders in the Union said. Isn't that what they say? How did it become a mistake? A different rookie trainer, can you answer this question to me? ”

The Monarch Serpent's tone was flat. It's as if she doesn't care about these things, and those feelings have been diluted by time.

But Wright could still feel the emotion in her tone.

Confusion, anger, and reluctance.

These emotions have not faded because of time. On the contrary, it is more and more profound. At first, the emotions of the Monarch Serpent floated on the surface like a storm. And now, these precipitated and sublimated feelings are like red-hot lava hidden under the earth's mantle. It doesn't seem that dangerous. But once it erupts, the destructive power is countless times greater than the former.

Wright knew that if he answered incorrectly at this point, then the Monarch Serpent would definitely not hesitate to attack himβ€”even if she had been taught not to attack trainers.

She is not a robot and does not abide by the three laws of robots. Although the elves are simpler in their minds than humans. But the simple logic of the monarch snake still understands. Since a lesson taught to her by humans is wrong, it even caused her so bad. And what about the other things that humans taught her? Are they right?

In fact, it is. The Monarch Serpent has had enough of this. She intends to use Wright as her last chance. If Wright's answer is unsatisfactory, then she will abandon her old ideals. Leave this institute and leave the human world. From now on, he refuses to be subdued by anyone.

As for how she will live in the future, she can think about it slowly. In short, such a day is absolute.

In this way, under the gaze of the Monarch Snake, Wright spoke: "Monarch Snake, how old is this year?" ”

"......" Monarch Snake never thought Wright would say that. I didn't know how to answer for a while, so I was stunned.

"I'm fourteen years old." Wright didn't have to let her answer, and said to himself: "Generally speaking, children who decide to take risks get the initial spirit at the age of ten and then set off. ”

Speaking of this, Wright showed a bitter, helpless, and at the same time relieved, joyful expression. Just walked up to the monarch snake and stretched out his hand.

The Monarch Serpent subconsciously wanted to resist, or attack. But she held back. On a closer look at Wright's eyes, the monarch snake lost his mind.

Suddenly this feeling arose in her heart:

That's the guy it has been waiting for.

There is nothing wrong with the breeder's words.

Dr. Elf didn't do anything wrong.

Again, this is not a tragedy of infall.

The reason why I stayed here for so long was for this child.

He's his own trainer.

He started his adventure today, and the days he waited for were over as a matter of course.

"I'm so sorry to have you waited so long." Wright said this as he reached out and stroked the head of the monarch snake: "I'm really sorry. ”

Hearing Wright say this, the monarch snake couldn't hold back for a while, and tears came out of his eyes. Then he threw himself into Wright's arms and cried.

This time, Wright didn't understand the words of the monarch snake. Probably, the cry of the elves is also the same as that of humans, and there are no words to describe it.

"Okay, don't cry, it's all over." Wright gently stroked the body of the monarch snake: "Although it is a little late. But the monarch snake we can go. ”

"Hmm." The Monarch Serpent nodded, and leaned into Wright's arms very gently.
