Story of Longevity

"Well... this is also your business."

Hearing Xing Ke's relief, without the slightest request for an answer, Lindel breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he did not misread the wrong person.

He has lived long enough, it can be said that he has witnessed the civilization of human civilization. From the age of bronze and fire to the age of light and light, he has also seen all kinds of people.

However, among the countless "human beings" that Lindel has seen, being able to be as powerful as Star Engraving is so powerful that it can change everything, and he can change as many as he wants, but is a person who respects the self-will of others. He has nothing to refer to. Case.

At first, from the first meeting, Lindel could clearly perceive the strength of the person in front of him. From his small body at the time, he felt a magical power far beyond Enzworth around him. The implied huge aura makes Lindel, whose perception is far greater than combat effectiveness, the first impression of Star Carving is actually "fear."

Lindel didn't know why, he had already asked Enzworth to check, and as long as he was a dangerous person, he would cancel the invitation, but Enzworth took him to Iceland. But now that the guest has arrived, it means that Endsworth believes that the guest whom Naibin has dreamed of is safe.

So Lindel went out to greet Star Carving. Just in order to test the character of Xingke, he also deliberately made his attitude look irritating...After all, if there is any hostility, he can go to war farther from the Dragon Kingdom.

But this temptation soon ended, because Lindel found himself wrong in a few words.

It's not dangerous—this is Lindel's preliminary judgment on Star Carving. As a magician and an older elder, Lindel's sixth sense is still very good.

The danger felt in him at the beginning was nothing more than the uneasiness of the sensitive creatures with lower ranks caused by the too powerful force.

The root cause of fear is often one's own weakness and ignorance.

But this slightly unpleasant first meeting did not affect the acquaintance of Lindel and Xingqi too much.

Next Lindel brought Star Carved directly to Lao Long without any procrastination, and explained clearly the purpose of inviting Star Carved to come over, and Star Carved also very frankly told them that there was nothing he could do.

It was very tacit, and the first contact was completed without the slightest bit of falsehood.

And Lindel also has a preliminary understanding of Star Carvings-uniquely powerful aura, young appearance without flaws, calm to cold wisdom, compassion but objective attitude... These seemingly contradictory truths are gathered in On a person.

This is a miraculous existence, what kind of secret is in his body? Where did he come from? Where are you going again?

Just after the first contact, Lindel, who had lived with him for a long time, couldn't tell at all. Obviously he has seen too many people, he can see through ordinary humans very quickly-this is one of the reasons why he is getting away from the human race.

But it is a special case like Xingke. Yesterday, he was very interested and wanted to take a slow look at Longgu, expressing his love for the scenery here, but he didn’t hesitate the next morning and couldn’t see anything. Nostalgic left.

Perhaps it was because of temperance and deliberately not to have fun, or it was reminded of something urgent, or perhaps other thoughts, but these were not what Lindel could know.

Even his last promise that he "will come again" was regarded by Lindel as a [social language], and he didn't think he would really do it again... at least he didn't report any expectations.

After all, human beings are forgetful, fickle, multifaceted, and chaotic, and cannot make any assertions.

Thirty years have passed.

If it were placed in the past, a generation of mankind has completed its replacement, and even completed the entire process from life to death. After the young dragon was poached, Lindel finally heard the name of Star Carved again, and even thanked him for his help.

But Lindel, who had calmed down because of the safety of the young dragon, had another feeling. The name that I heard again, the name that produced cause and effect again, might be able to meet again in two days. This is not a theorem, nor a prediction, but an intuition.

Sure enough, a few days later, on a snow-melting morning, Lindel saw a brand new but very familiar "One-Side Fate".

Decades have passed for this guy, although the appearance has been completely new, but the inside has not changed at all, he is still so detached and rude. But it was so...with a sense of intimacy.

After Xing Ke said hello, he asked for breakfast. Lindel had no choice but to prepare some regular meals for him on this wonderful morning. I really don’t understand why he chose to be with himself so specifically, far away from human society, even the seasoning is not very complete, except for the sea salt smelted by the elves, there is only the umami taste of dried meat and dried vegetables. .

During the meal, Lindel heard an interesting story after a long time. A giant dragon wanted to go to the land of ants to find treasure, but was dissuaded by the honey offered by two queen bees.

Although others may feel that this story has a low point of laughter, it is a peculiar joke for the elderly...elders like Lindel who can count the characters in the story.

This gave Lindel a chance to laugh out loud after a long time. The last time he laughed like this was when his disciple came to visit him. I have to sigh that the density of happiness in the past few years has increased a bit, as if to make up for my anger and sadness when the young dragon was poached a few days ago.

Then, when the breakfast was over, and when the story was finished, Xingke finally guided one of his reasons for coming here, which was to ask Lindel if he would like to move the Kingdom of Dragon to other more suitable ones. In the world of survival.

Although the prerequisites for Xingqi to lead this topic were really long enough, Lindel finally understood what Xingqi wanted to express——

[I didn't come here specifically because of my regret at the beginning! ~】

[Who would remember that little thing for more than 30 years? ~】

[It’s just because of the Elf King’s affairs that I just remembered you as a person and a group of dragons that were about to become extinct! ~】

[People are just right now? So there is a place for you to survive and multiply. Is it really just right? 】

[Look at your pitiful ones who are about to be extinct. If you want to migrate, it’s not impossible. I will help you with great compassion...]

[So, are you coming? 】

…………

Yes, don't laugh.

Using Lindel's brain translation mechanism to sort out and refine the awkwardness of Xing Mo, that's what it means.

What a cute guy.

I'm really worried that the way of expressing kindness is so awkward, will no one like him? And from a boy to a girl (although he denied it), does this guy really have a good offspring in thirty years? Inheritance is a big deal for short-lived wizards...

After these worries flashed in his head, Lindel decisively rejected Starcut's migration proposal.

It wasn't that he didn't believe in Xingqi's vision, nor was he not believing in Xingqi's character, but because of all kinds of mysterious sixth sense, Lindel trusted this friend who had only met twice.

But he still refused.

Not because of anything else, just because of his selfishness and laziness. He has been wandering in this world for too long, and then leisurely in this valley for too long, and he has no desire to open up a new world.

He just wants to spend a peaceful old age, and then melt himself in this land like snow, and nourish this land that has been nurtured for so many years.

[Birth and this world, grow up in this world, and then... die in this world. 】

This is also the decision of all the wisdom dragon species in this valley, and their attachment to this land is much deeper than Lindel. They were originally the children of the earth, the sky and the water. They were attached to their mothers and depended on their mothers. Finally, they fed their mothers back and returned to their embrace... What's wrong with this?

It's okay to say that they were obliterated by their secluded life, or that they were killed by the peaceful time without war, or that they were wild, but there is no way to deny that they were born and grew up in this land.

This is an ugly and filthy feeling that human beings cannot understand that destroyed their own living environment in just two or three hundred years.

Human beings cannot understand the natural environment destroyed by them, how many billions of years it took to nurture them, and they don’t know that even the “adopted sons” also understand and cherish the “love”. How deep.

It is this pure love, this love that is denied, swallowed, and defiled by humans, that makes the dragon seed become the darling of the earth, giving them natural protection.

But it was this love that allowed Dragon Seed to make a decision to "live and die" with this world.

[This is our happiness~]

And Lindel is only their acting spokesperson.

Xingke smiled and said that he envied Lindel's happiness. But Lindel couldn't understand what he was envious of.

Is he envious of being protected by nature and being a magician? Or is it envious that he can live in this land? Or is it envious of his relationship with this land and owning his own home?

It is impossible to envy him to return to this land after death, right? There is nothing to envy about this, as long as it is a living, anyone can do it.

So this guy must be laughing at me! Satire me like an old man lying in a rocking chair waiting to die. Lindel confirmed in his heart.

Although Lindel wanted to tell him that his other ability as a magician was the "hand of medicine" that could cure all diseases, even if he was "waiting for death", he would have to wait three or four hundred years after the magic in the atmosphere was truly exhausted. , But think about it, Lindel still thinks forget it.

Because returning after three or four hundred years is no different from returning now...just eat a few more meals.

In a sense, there is no difference between short-lived species and long-lived species. Everyone has a limited life, with different lengths. So everyone is looking for where they belong, and there is nothing wrong with it.

On the contrary, it was a star carving that made Lindel hardly understand whether he used the eyes of the short-lived species or the long-lived species. This person was more magical and made Lindel more curious.

Originally Lindel wanted to use words to explore the secrets of Star Carving, but was avoided by this awkward and cute guy. At most, I knew that this guy was actually different from ordinary humans.

Immediately afterwards, Lindel's disciple, Lottie Janssen returned.

It was through the opportunity of introducing the disciple to Xingke that Lindel knew that this guy had actually been out of this world for a long time.

Maybe he experienced something?

But should it be said that it is really him? The reason that really extinguished Lindel's enthusiasm for pioneering new worlds was soon discovered by him.

He has never been associated with anyone in his life, has no descendants, and as a half-disciple of Endsworth has long been independent Lindel, he has truly discovered his destined person.

A little [singer] who can perfectly inherit his skills and pass on his miss.

He is well-behaved and afraid of living, but still has his own persistence in my heart~www.ltnovel.com~ This is the first time that such a child who is favored by elves, Lindel, felt that instead of bringing his accumulated life to the soil Here, disappearing in the world, in fact, it is also a good choice to pass on to her.

However, even if she inherits my knowledge and philosophy, this is not the reason why young people like her must be restricted to the Dragon Kingdom like me. She still has her world and her future, she will replace her. I am going to watch a more colorful world. So she was able to inherit my inheritance, but not my responsibility-Lindel made this decision.

Therefore, the key to complete his regrets and make everything perfect is now in front of his eyes.

"Well... this is also your business."

"Yes, this is a decision I made, but can you help me according to my wishes? Xingke."

Lindel smiled and begged this friend who had only seen him twice.

And Xing Ke also showed a smile like that, and said: "Sure enough...you still don't give up."

"But yes, if you give up your mind, then my vision is wrong."

"Haha, I seem to be the one who fell into the routine." Lindel laughed at himself.

Lottie, who was on the side, looked at the teacher and the professor at each other in a puzzled way, she didn't know how to be dumb.

"Let's say, what is your so-called will...? As long as I can, I don't mind wasting a while."

Anyway, Star Carving has a lot of time.

"Well, thank you." Lindel put away the smile on his face, and began to tell his plan somewhat seriously:

"Like what I said just now, I won't take you to other worlds to settle down, nor will the dragons in this valley, but..."
