No life that is wise enough or self-aware is willing to be ...... by other beings Enslavement.

Enslavement, the word lingers in Link's consciousness, this is his conclusion about the relationship between man and elf. No matter how cosmetic the relationship is, or how many trainers like Ash try to overturn it, that conclusion doesn't change.

There is a very important support point for this conclusion, which is the existence of Poké Balls. An intelligent being is kept in a prolonged manner rather than allowed to live freely in a suitable habitat, which is the treatment of slaves.

Domestication may be a good way to make ends meet for small, hard-to-survive elves like Rada, but for most races, the way humans rise is a major disruption to their lives.

But who says they can't use tools? Link doesn't have anything uncomfortable with human behavior. Except for the individuals who have mastered superpowers and waveguide powers, humans themselves have no competitive advantage at all in front of the elves who have mastered powerful skills.

Now in such an advantageous position, it is based on the accumulation of the first generation after countless generations of struggle to survive, the Poke Ball is just an opportunity, its invention time is far from a long time compared with the evidence-based history, and its birth needs the support of more pre-technology that is impossible to count! That is the result of thousands of years of development.

But these intricacies are not important today, and it is impossible for humans to give up their dominant position, but the corresponding humans have to make concessions to the elves, or to say that they will not do more excessive things to the elves.

Because the elves have the ability to smash the field.

For example, the gophers, who created most of the vegetation at this time, and the trio birds of the Orange Islands, which dominate the material cycles necessary for the existence of life......

There are too many examples of this.

The elves at least have so much initiative to destroy humanity in whole or in a certain part, which is something that cannot be changed, so the relationship between humans and elves must become as reasonable and relatively harmonious as it is now.

It's a balance, and that balance was badly affected years ago by the appearance of some kind of Poké Ball! The quick and violent reaction of the elves took all of humanity, including the makers, by surprise and unprepared, and a terrible war began without warning, and it was not even time to reconcile at the beginning of the war.

Link had determined what kind of Poké Ball it was before Zhulan could say it, and only the kind of Poké Ball, which was said to be able to be caught by even divine beasts, had the great value of causing war.

Zhulan didn't say too much about the details of the war, and the war ended with the representative of the elves' divine beasts obtaining all the materials for the creation of the master balls, and the number of master balls that existed from time to time was reduced to an extremely limited number - this was the result of negotiations, and humans had the qualifications and ability to retain a certain amount of deterrent power.

The precious and essential materials in the crafting materials are strictly regulated by both humans and elves, and there are always some mythical beasts with incredible powers that can seamlessly monitor the world for any such things......

Zhulan's recounting of this very recent historical event suddenly gave Link a lot of room for reverie - mainly caused by the irrational situation that Kanto saw was different from other places.

"Don't worry, the alliance will agree to the existence of breeders in the future. Link looked at Zhulan, who looked a little heavy after telling the whole story, and said.

"Hmm, why are you so sure?" Zhulan chuckled and looked at Link, who didn't use a reassuring tone, but came to a conclusion with certainty.

"Because it can only develop like this, the elves and humans have accepted the current relative status, and no species will be crazy about dying together unless it is absolutely necessary, and human beings are constantly advancing in terms of technology and concepts, and further harmony with the elves will be more and more in line with the interests of mankind, and by the way, it is also in line with the interests of the elves. ”

Link explained that this is the actual experience of social history in his previous world, and that the number and scale of conventional wars will decrease and shrink with the development of technology and concepts, and the overall living environment of all life will be improved to varying degrees, after all, the outcome of common destruction is not something that any race leader can afford.

Even though this world does not have the same historical experience, Link's words still make Zhulan agree and feel a little more at ease. A relaxed expression appeared on her face, but it only lasted for a brief moment before vanishing, and she turned her back as if she had lost something.

Link's words are very reasonable, and they are indeed in line with the current reality. But as the best trainer of the new Olympic generation, she clearly knows that there is a variable that cannot be ignored -

Arceus!

This ancestor was betrayed and framed by humans, fell into a deep sleep with great hatred for humans, and missed the appearance of Poké Balls, and the various buffer stages between humans and elves after their appearance. God knows what terrible consequences it will have if it reappears!

The individual strength of that person alone was enough to smash the field. According to the prophecy, Arceus's recovery day is roughly in the past few decades, in the time period that their generation can see, and Zhulan has a headache every time he thinks about it.

Although Link knew about Arceus, he couldn't imagine that Zhulan was worried about it, just because she didn't have confidence in the prospects she was depicting...... So for Zhulan's low mood, he didn't have any good ways to further comfort him.

"Have you figured out the time and place of the next glamorous contest?" Link chose to change the subject.

"Of course, the schedule is in my bag and I confirmed it before I came out today. Zhulan responded very cooperatively.

In short, with Link's deliberate tug, the conversation returned to a light-hearted direction.

In the process, he finally finished the energy cube in his hand, and in line with the principle of being responsible for his own elves, Link personally tasted a small piece......

No, this sour taste! This weird taste! Link had the urge to spit out everything that had been left overnight the moment he ate this thing.

"Are you sure you want to eat this? Link grinned and trembled as he handed the thing to his elf.

Watching the Swamp Leaping Fish eagerly feast on the side, Link's stomach tumbled.

"Zhulan, any elf will definitely get along in harmony. ”

"Huh?"

"You see, there can be no food conflict between humans and elves even the most basic!" Link swore with a curse.
