Chapter 2452 Talent and Effort

Looking for a backer to pave the way?

No wonder the Nagas would agree to form an alliance without making any demands. It turns out that this is the key point.

"So asking for my opinion is another way of looking for a backer and paving the way?"

"It doesn't count." Elder Sixina did not make a fuss, but said straightforwardly: "The legends of the ancient fairies are only recorded in historical documents, and in reality, I only know you, the ancient fairies. In individual cases, I cannot tell whether the records in historical documents are fabricated out of thin air or whether they are true, so I need to wait and see."

"If you want to become the patron of the Naga tribe and be worshiped by the Naga tribe for generations, then please show the corresponding strength."

"It seems that I have never said that I want to be a protector of the Naga tribe, and I have no intention of becoming that kind of person."

My expression became very serious at this moment: "My ultimate goal in life is to conquer the dungeon, obtain the promise of the legendary God of Creation, and then live a free life of leisurely clouds and wild cranes with my family. As for the protector, To be honest, a quasi-sacred and lofty profession is not suitable for me, and even if it were placed on me, I might not be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility."

These realistic yet slightly decadent words did not break Elder Scyna's determination. She was like a piece of steel, she would never change her mind easily as long as she was not hit hard head-on.

When we left the mansion, it was late at night, the moon and stars were sparse, and insects were chirping constantly.

When I got home, as soon as I opened the door, there was light coming out through the cracks, dim and dim, like the afterglow of the sunset.

Is this a side light?

Is anyone still asleep?

He poked his head in and met a pair of eyes.

"Come back?" Yura put on his coat and sat quietly on the sofa, asking softly.

I asked in surprise: "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

She raised her finger, shushed, and pointed to the sofa opposite. Only then did I realize that Remi and Bai Yunying were already fast asleep.

In the whole tree house, only Yura and I were still awake.

I lowered my voice and said softly: "It's so late and you're still not sleeping?"

"Aren't you worried that if you come back too late, you will disturb other people?" Yura stood up and poured me a cup of tea gently.

I took a sip of tea. The tea was warm, but my heart was warm.

"Thank you" I murmured.

"What?" Yura blinked, as if he didn't hear clearly.

On weekdays, she always acted like a strict teacher. Every word, every action, every move was done carefully and cautiously, for fear of having a bad influence on the people around her.

Over time, the appearance of a strict teacher has become deeply rooted in my heart, making me forget that she is actually just an ordinary girl in her twenties. She laughs, laughs, curses, and is naughty and coquettish, which is the nature of girls in their teens and twenties. .

I stared at her naughty smile, unconsciously, lost in thought.

"Hey, Xiaoyi, are you okay?"

A pair of small hands kept waving in front of my eyes. The next second, I came back to my senses and smiled at Yura who looked confused: "Go and have a rest. Sleeping too late is not good for your skin. Staying up late will make you older. "

Yula exclaimed, and suddenly covered her mouth again. She glanced carefully at Little Remi and Bai Yunying, who were still sleeping soundly. Seeing that the two women were breathing evenly and still sleeping soundly, she breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and sighed. : "Fortunately, I didn't wake them up, so I'm going to sleep."

After that, he tiptoed back to the room.

Leaning on the sofa, he took a deep breath, recalling Yura's obscure but delicate tenderness, and felt a warmth that he had never felt before.

The slightly warm tea in the cup seems to have become a source of strength.

Perhaps Elder Scyna's feeling is not wrong. I do have the potential to become a protector. However, what I protect is not Moonlight City, nor the Naga tribe, nor even Zephyr Continent, but my family.

I drank the tea in one gulp, slowly put down the cup, leaned on the sofa, and stared at the ceiling. The vigorous dark brown tree lines overlapped and curled up to form pure natural abstract paintings, which are better than famous paintings by abstract painting masters. Not to mention too much.

This is the art of nature.

Appreciating the art of nature and feeling the comfort of warm tea washing away my tiredness, I fell into a deep sleep before I knew it.

When she woke up again, it was dawn, and Emily was practicing her sword in the yard.

Getting up early and doing morning exercises has always been her habit. She has developed it since she was a child. It has continued to this day and will continue to do so.

Some people are strong not only because of their outstanding talent, but also because of their hard work. This is exactly the case with Emily.

She has never complained or been lazy. She is like a precise machine, running on time day after day. No matter how late she sleeps, or even if she has no sleep all night, she will still be there in the early morning of the next day. Pick up a sword and practice sword practice.

This tenacity has trained her to become the number one warrior of the younger generation in Zephyr Continent.

On the other hand, Bai Yunying, who is always half as good as her, makes me a little confused.

She was so sleepy that she felt groggy all day long. As long as she didn't move for three minutes, she could stand still and doze off. The strength of this lethargy really impressed me.

It's just that I can't understand how she, who barely exercises, can always hold down half of Emily.

Could it be said that hard work is really useless compared to talent?

When I raised this doubt to Yura, Yura also didn't understand it, but she didn't take it seriously, and Yura believed that Bai Yunying could always hold half of Emily's strength in strength, which didn't mean that she didn't understand it. It's not a bad thing. Once Emily becomes the strongest of the younger generation, she is likely to feel lonely and lose herself.

After all, the strongest is alone.

Then Yura put forward his own opinion: It is better to treat Bai Yunying. After all, she is the strongest among the younger generation. No one can share this loneliness for her except you.

Yura's words were very pertinent, but they still failed to answer my doubts, so I wandered into the palace and asked Her Majesty the Fairy Queen for advice.

After hearing my doubts, Grandma Queen smiled and said: "Xiaoyi, Xiaoyi, I remember I once taught you, don't just look at the appearance of anything. Do you still remember?"

"Remember," I said, "you also said that you should look beyond the appearance to see the true heart."

"Since I remember, why can't I see through Baiyunying?" Grandma Queen picked a grape with a smile, put it in her mouth, and chewed it carefully.

I thought hard and couldn't decipher the meaning of Grandma Queen's words.

What do you mean by not being able to see through Bai Yunying?

She sleeps all day long and doesn't even have time to talk. How can I understand her and see through her?

Just when I was wondering, I saw a silver plate being handed over. On the silver plate were placed a few chestnuts with their shells peeled off.

The Elf Queen was holding the plate and looking at me with a smile.

Pick up one of them, put it gently into your mouth, and chew it slowly. As you chew, the texture suddenly changes. There seems to be something mixed in the soft chestnut flesh. Is that melon seed pulp?

I raised my head in surprise and looked at the Elf Queen, only to see her smiling and nodding at me.

At this time, the Fairy Queen's voice sounded again: "Understood?"
