Chapter 742 Forgetting and Forgiving
Sliding into the room, I closed the door quietly without making any sound.
Elder Mai Sonoda was still reviewing the documents carefully without even raising his head.
I moved carefully, little by little, as cautiously as a geisha from an island nation serving tea and water.
Two or three meters away, Elder Mai Sonoda suddenly raised her head, stretched out her right hand, and a magic wand flew out from her wide sleeve robe, falling firmly into her hand. She flipped her wrist, and the head of the wand pointed at me accurately, and shouted :"who?"
I hurriedly raised my hands with a flattering smile on my face: "It's me, please forgive me, elder."
"An Xiaoyi?" Elder Sonoda Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, and although his tone of voice slowed down slightly, the magic wand in his hand still locked me firmly: "It's getting late, what are you doing here?"
I shook my hand, turned around again, and said, "Look, I didn't bring a weapon. I came to see you with good intentions."
"Good intentions?" She chuckled: "Why should I trust you?"
"Elf Forest, White Fish Pond" I whispered: "I think you should understand what these two sentences mean, right?"
After hearing this, Elder Sonoda Mai frowned, looking quite wary, and said coldly: "What do you mean by this?"
"I think the goblin leader should have invited you to their residence."
"I don't understand what you said." She still had a cold face, pointing straight at me with the magic wand in her hand. On the head of the wand, a ball of pale golden light kept spinning.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited." I waved my hands repeatedly to tell her to calm down, then reached into my arms, grabbed something, and then slowly pulled it out.
When I pulled out the object, my speed was absolutely even and slow, so as not to make her too nervous and cause the magic wand to misfire.
In any case, she is also an elder-level person. Any magic missile may cause damage to me. Even if the damage is minimal, it can still be avoided as much as possible. It is best not to cause trouble again.
Seeing that the atmosphere was very tense, I could even hear her rapid breathing. It seemed that she had regarded me as a strong enemy.
He pulled his arms out of his arms little by little, holding a shining crystal in his palm.
Spreading my hands, I slowly held up the crystal and said, "This is the communication crystal I use to contact the leader of the goblin clan. You can try to contact her."
With that said, I slowly stepped forward and gently placed the crystal on her file.
After that, I took two steps back and made a gesture of please.
Elder Mai Sonoda still did not let down her guard. She held the magic wand towards me with one hand and carefully touched the call crystal with the other hand.
"Ah, there are signs on it. The one that shows the goblin leader is the channel connected to the goblin leader's call crystal. The others, except Dewey's, are all my fiancee's channels." I explained: "Please don't press randomly. It’s not good if the lines are crossed.”
She raised her head, glanced at me, then lowered her head and pressed a call.
Soon, an old and familiar voice sounded from the crystal, it was the leader of the goblin clan.
I took a few steps back again, leaving her a private space to talk to the goblin leader. After almost ten minutes, the call was hung up, and the magic wand in her hand was put back.
I stepped forward and put the call crystal in my arms: "Has Grandma Patriarch made it clear to you?"
"I never expected," Elder Sonoda Wu said, "An Xiaoyi, you are actually from the Fairy Queen's side."
Fairy Queen?
It would be more intimate to call the patriarch grandma.
Looking at her disbelieving expression, I pondered for a moment and said, "That's right."
"What does it mean?" Elder Mai Sonoda's eyes narrowed suddenly and his brows furrowed again.
"Also means, not quite."
"Do you have other loyalties?" Her expression was serious.
I shrugged and said, "Obviously, no, and I want to correct one of your points. Not only am I not loyal to anyone else, I am also not loyal to the Goblin Clan Leader. I only follow my own will."
"That means you might become the Fairy Queen's enemy?" Elder Mai Sonoda's expression turned cold again.
"Maybe, but at least not yet," I said calmly, "In the future, it will depend on whether she will do something harmful to me and my family."
"The Fairy Queen is a kind elder. She will never do anything harmful to you and your family."
Elder Mai Sonoda said with an arrogant expression.
"If that's the case, I will naturally not be her enemy. After all, many friends lead to many paths."
Elder Sonoda Mai nodded: "What do you want to do when you come here?"
"Make sure you are an upright and arrogant person as the patriarch grandma said."
"Did you get your answer?" she asked.
"I got it, but only part of it." I spread my hands and said, "You are indeed a very arrogant person, but I don't know if you are just or not."
"What a rude guy." Elder Mai Sonoda glared at me fiercely: "My integrity is obvious to all in Moonlight City!"
"So you don't have many friends at all," I said calmly, "This is what the patriarch and grandma told me. She said you are a poor child."
Elder Mai Sonoda was silent for more than half a minute, and then she sighed: "The Fairy Queen is still so understanding and kind. Even after experiencing that tragic past, her kindness to the fairies is still as dazzling as the sun. "
"The tragic past?" I asked her: "Elder Mai Sonoda, what exactly is the tragic past you are talking about?"
"You are a human race, you shouldn't pry into this history." Elder Mai Sonoda's expression changed and he said coldly: "It is related to the glory of our race!"
"But it is also related to the future between the fairies and the elves," I said, "If you don't tell me about it, how can I help you rebuild the relationship with the fairies?"
"Reshape the relationship? Just you?" There was contempt and deep self-blame in her eyes: "Even the elders and I couldn't stop the tragic past, so why are you trying to undo it?"
As she spoke, she sighed and continued: "You are very arrogant. Young people are all arrogant. Although this is not a shortcoming, it is the most fatal advantage. It makes you think that you are fearless. It makes you feel that you have nothing to fear." No, but this is not the case. Do you think that with just a few words and one or two good deeds, you can erase the scars on your heart? You are too naive. Acceptance does not mean forgiveness, only forgiveness. It is said that everyone in the goblin tribe is very kind and tolerant. They are willing to accept our apology and tolerate our mistakes, but deep in their hearts, there is always a trace of hurt, which can only be gradually eliminated with the passage of time. Faded memories, but want to be completely forgotten, unless hundreds, or even thousands of years pass, or the day when our bones finally turn into dust."
