Chapter 1193 – Crowded Out (5)
She had no power, no rank, and was mixed-race. If she appeared in the eyes of the elves with this kind of ident.i.ty, she feared that there would be a lot of trouble. Therefore, she just suppressed her inner yearning and decided to find her parents after entering the Silvermoon Guards.
Shen Yanxiao sighed and looked at An Ran’s self-blaming appearance. She began to wonder if she should not have spoken so straightforwardly.
“The reason you entered the advanced training camp, is it because you want to fight for the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe?” Shen Yanxiao asked.
An Ran hesitated for a moment before he slowly nodded.
The glory of the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe was no longer there. However, no matter what kind of state the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe had fallen to, they would not abandon their own tribe.
“I want to prove that we are not traitors. I think if I can become a member of the Silvermoon Guards and work hard to protect the Tree of Life and the Elf King, maybe they will not look at us like that anymore.” The idea of An Ran was very simple. He just didn’t want to see the elves’ discrimination against the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe members, so even if he knew that he would encounter various unfair treatments after entering the advanced training camp, he still came nonetheless.
Shen Yanxiao smiled slightly.
“Then prove it to them. I believe you have the potential.”
An Ran looked at Shen Yanxiao in surprise. He had not felt this feeling of being trusted by someone for a long time now. But now, such trust was given to him by this little fellow he had barely met.
“Thank you.” An Ran said with some difficulty.
Shen Yanxiao said, “Don’t be so pessimistic. Compared with me, you are much better. You at least have your own tribe. At least you are a black elf. On the other hand, I have nothing. No tribe, no power, and I was only able to enter this advanced training camp for some special reasons. I am an existence that the elves can’t accept. You are much better than me.” Shen Yanxiao tried hard to attach all kinds of miserable things on herself, so that An Ran would no longer feel so downcast.
An Ran smiled at Shen Yanxiao; this was the first time he had seen such a carefree elf.
Indeed, it could really be said that Shen Yanxiao’s situation was worse than his. But it made him very curious. Why did this elf enter the advanced training camp, and how could she come in despite having many unqualified circ.u.mstances.
Of course, curiousity was just curiosity. An Ran also had a sense of propriety. He would not inquire about Shen Yanxiao’s private affairs. That would be very rude.
“I know that you are comforting me, but still thank you. I am very glad to have met you in the advanced training camp.” A trace of smile finally appeared on An Ran’s frozen face for a long time. He felt very cordial to Shen Yanxiao, as if he had known her since a long time ago. He got up and extended his hand to her.
Shen Yanxiao stood up and shook An Ran’s hand. She smiled and said, “We are in the same boat, we’re just the same, so what are you thanking me for? We must work hard together in the future to make those who look down on us stunned.”
“Good! I will definitely work hard!” An Ran nodded firmly.
Shen Yanxiao was all smiles as she looked at An Ran. Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe was also her grandparents’ family, she had to help them not for the monk’s sake, but for the Buddha’s[1].
Moreover, Shen Yanxiao had already planned to pull the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe out of their predicament during her time in the Moon G.o.d Continent since the beginning, because she vaguely felt that the reason the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe had been demoted and banished couldn’t be unrelated to her parents.
Emotionally or logically, Shen Yanxiao could not just sit idly by.
[1] This just indicates that she really wants to help them.
