Chapter 981

My name is Doreen, Doreen shadow.

My mother told me that my name was finally decided after my father searched for three days and three nights in the elf language. In the elf language, the name means "Hope" and "the gift of the goddess".

My father is a devout goddess believer and a well-known powerful Ranger. Since I can remember, my family has always had guests visiting my father. Every time they visit, they will bring a lot of fun and delicious gifts.

I still remember when I didn't move. At that time, I lived in Tianxuan city with my parents. It was the largest and most spectacular city in the world. There were towering towers and speeding magic trains everywhere.

At that time, almost every day, new guests came to visit my father day and night, which even gave him a headache.

The deepest impression is that dad always has bloody eyes and thick black circles because he can't sleep well for a long time, as well as the helpless expression of being awakened by knocking at the door in the middle of the night.

I remember heave great sighs make complaints about his mother's face. He said that these shameless guys didn't give him any time to rest. Even if he was happy, every day, new people came and found trouble.

However, at this time, my mother just giggled.

She always covers her mouth, stares at her father with affectionate eyes, and laughs gently and jokingly:

"Now you know our difficulties? When I first met you, you knocked on my door in the middle of the night."

At this time, my father would be speechless.

He would scratch his head and embarrassingly change the subject with his blunt chat skills:

"At that time... Didn't you know anything?"

"Later, I changed..."

"Well, are you hungry?"

"I'll cook some noodles for you?"

……

Dad's noodles are still delicious. After all... This is the only meal dad can cook.

Pasta is not the traditional food of our elves. Listen to my mother, it was brought by the heavenly selectors from a very far away place.

The chosen ones have a very detached position in our elves. They have great power and the magical ability to come back from the dead.

It is said that it is the proof of the goddess's family.

My mother told me that my father used to be a powerful elf God elect.

I was shocked when I first knew this past.

As far as I can remember, the stories of the chosen ones have been discussed most frequently among my friends. They are the protagonists most praised by bards. They take risks in one seat after another. Everyone yearns for the legendary experience of the chosen ones.

"So... Does Dad have the magical power to come back from the dead?"

At that time, I asked again and again.

"No, it's gone. He's' retired 'from his job as a candidate."

My mother gently stroked my head and replied.

"Retired?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Because dad is tired, every candidate will be tired, and when they are tired, they will retire."

"Oh..."

At that time, I didn't understand.

Of course, later I knew that it was because the electors also lived in another distant world.

When they die in that world, they will lose their identity as the chosen one.

"Death... Must be a very sad thing for relatives in that world."

When I knew about it, I couldn't help but say sadly.

But Dad shook his head:

"No..."

"Compared with sadness, death is a new beginning for me..."

On that day, I learned that most elves have three lives.

In that distant world, they live as an ordinary person, which is the first period of life.

In our world, they continue to take risks, fight and explore the unknown, which is the second stage of life.

And when they die in another world, the memory of that world will be forgotten.

At this time, most of them will start their third life as an ordinary elf

……

Later, we moved.

From the city of choice to the manor in the countryside.

The reason is very simple. My father can't stand those successive candidates.

I still remember the day before I finally decided to move, my father dragged his tired body (mentally) home from work in the security hall, and complained to my mother again that the new candidates were just like sticky people, so he couldn't get rid of them.

My mother shook her head and said that she went to the temple to pray today. I heard the priests of the temple say that recently the goddess issued a divine Oracle, and the number of new heavenly electors seems to increase again.

Dad's face turned green on the spot.

The next day, he took us to the countryside.

The new home is located next to a beautiful lake in the suburbs, which has a moving name - Amber.

Even today, 30 years later, I am still intoxicated by the beautiful scenery of the lakeside manor.

I still remember the day of moving. The rain for several days washed the lush trees green and bright, the happy voice of birds rang through the forest, the cool wind in September swayed the awn grass around, and the cloudless sky was blue and clear.

The wind blows across the lake and brings the unique fresh smell after the rain. The sparkling lake water ripples and reflects the green willows rustling with leaves.

Occasionally, I can hear the roar of a giant dragon from the depths of the forest. It sounds a little vague, as if it comes from another world. I can't help but fantasize about what the hometown of the chosen ones... Is like.

The manor is very big. Flowers and green grass are planted everywhere, and my new bedroom has been fully expanded four times. The soft big bed is enough for me to roll alone.

Dad also specially asked Lord Alice to set up a magic barrier outside the manor. After that... There were a lot fewer people who came to disturb the sky.

The rest are not so much admirers as friends of my father.

Later I learned that they were all teammates who fought together when my father was the chosen one.

Every time I visit, they will bring me all kinds of interesting gifts, beautiful flowers from other planes, and all kinds of delicious food full of exotic scenery.

I also especially like to stay in the audience and listen to them talk about their adventures when they visit my father.

Their adventure experience is more wonderful than that of their father told by their mother. It is a journey through all aspects. Each journey is enough to write a legend.

They have even been to more distant places. It is said that... It is a broader and more magnificent world.

Dad also likes to listen to them talk about his experience.

Whenever they talked about their adventures excitedly, my father would listen quietly, his eyes full of flashing light.

At that time, I realized that although my father was no longer the chosen one, he was still eager for adventure in the bottom of his heart.

I once asked my father, although he is no longer the chosen one, it is said that many ordinary elves take risks with the chosen one. Why doesn't he continue his journey?

Dad gently replied:

"Because I already have you and mom."

At that moment, I knew that in my father's heart, there was something more important than adventure

……

Dad used to have four comrades in arms.

Although in my opinion, they are kind like uncle next door, my friends told me with envy that each of them is a legendary figure in the world.

Among them, I like Uncle Lotte best.

He always wears the most simple armor. He has been like a day for decades. Every time he sees me, he will smile gently and give me delicious milk candy.

He also has a dragon partner named Christine, a beautiful blonde sister.

Sister Christine is very beautiful, but... Because the dragon's growth period is too long, she looks a little older than me.

Although she is a little proud, she is surprisingly gentle. We have become good friends since the first day we met.

Occasionally, she will visit me alone, become a dragon and fly me in the sky.

Uncle Rakuten often said to me with envy that Christine was better to me than him.

However, I know that Christine likes uncle Lotte very much.

Although she always quarrels with Uncle Lotte Pai and always puts a proud and disgusting face in front of him, her eyes will always follow him when Uncle Lotte Pai is around.

Although I hid deeply, I was no stranger to that look. I had the tenderness when my mother looked at my father

……

Lotte sent uncle and several other friends to visit at least once every four years.

The time of choice is often a fixed day in autumn.

It seems to be a special day. Although they visit individually or collectively on weekdays, each time is not as grand as that day.

However, I don't like the atmosphere of "special day".

Although they bring the most gifts and the brightest smile on their faces every day, I always feel... When this day comes, they seem to be covering up their sadness.

But dad is the opposite.

Although he is always expressionless, I feel that his mood is more pleasant than ever on "special day".

It seems to be the happiest thing of his day to appreciate the smiling faces of his comrades in arms to hide their sadness.

This makes me very puzzled.

It was not until later that I learned from my mother that this day was the day when my father died in another world.

The time flow rate of the other world is a quarter of that of our world, so... That is the annual death day of dad in the other world.

"Don't they know that dad just continues to live in this world?"

I asked curiously.

Mother replied strangely:

"In fact, your father has explained it many times, but... They don't believe it all the time..."

"Why?"

"Because every reincarnation candidate will be sealed with the memory of the other world. Without the memory of the other world, they don't believe that dad is the real reincarnation."

"What is not reincarnation?"

"In their words... Is to commemorate NPC."

“NPC？”

"It's the one who sends tasks to the chosen one."

"Hmm? Is mom also an NPC?"

"Sort of."

……

I still don't know much about the chosen one.

Everything about them seems out of tune with the world.

But at the same time, without them, the world seems to be less

There seems to be a deep misunderstanding between them and their father, which can't be solved anyway.

But dad didn't seem to care.

"They will know sooner or later."

He said so.

At that time, I didn't know what my father meant.

However, often at that time, I can vaguely feel a little solitude from my father.

Until today

……

The sun outside the window is still bright, and the living room welcomes long lost guests.

Carefully opening the curtains, I looked at the two people sitting in the hall.

Dad on one side and uncle Rakuten on the other.

They sat on both sides.

The bonfire crackled in the fireplace.

The lights flickered and the atmosphere in the living room was strange.

Dad seemed to be holding back a smile, while uncle Lotte was rarely embarrassed.

He sat upright, his face was full of embarrassment, and his ears even turned red

No one spoke. They were silent, but both seemed to have something to say.

Suddenly, they raised their heads and wanted to speak at the same time, but after looking at each other, they closed their mouths subconsciously at the same time.

Finally, dad couldn't hold it anymore, and suddenly burst into laughter.

Dad seldom smiled. At that moment, I almost thought I was wrong.

It must be very interesting to make dad laugh.

"Lotte pie, you say it first."

"No, no, no... captain, you say it first."

"You'd better go first."

"No, brother boxer, you first..."

"Then I'll say it first?"

"Uh huh..."

Dad smiled, while uncle Lotte was more and more embarrassed.

"How did you die? In reality, you should still be very young?"

Dad suddenly asked.

"Well... I'm ashamed to say, it's a car accident."

Rakuten scratched his head.

"Car accident?"

"It should be. I can't remember the blue star. This is what Lord ADA Gree said in the kingdom of God."

"ADA Gree?"

"Well... The goddess is a new demigod."

"Have you seen the goddess?"

"It's a pity that I didn't..."

"Now, do you know that what I have been saying about reincarnation is true?"

"Well... Now I know."

Soon, I saw my father and uncle Lotte fall into silence at the same time.

They looked at each other and suddenly burst out laughing at the same time.

I've never seen my father laugh so happily.

"Hahaha... Lotte sect, from today on, you should also experience the happiness of NPC. Of course... There is also a quadrennial worship."

He smiled.

Looking at my father's happy smile, I suddenly realized that from today on... Maybe he won't show his lonely expression occasionally as before.
