Elf: My green caterpillar has a dream

"What are you?"

"Woooo~"

(Look at you, you look better than others~)

"..."

The sincere emotion flashing in the big dark eyes made Nanfeng silent.

Now, sitting face to face with him on the tree trunk was a shiny green caterpillar that was at least half a meter tall.

Different from ordinary green caterpillars, his bright yellow body makes him extra conspicuous and twinkling in the night.

At first glance, it looks like the first one to die in the wild.

This green caterpillar seems completely unaware of its special color and shape.

He squirmed twice in the direction of the south wind, staring into his big eyes with a hopeful look on his face, as if he was seeing a friend.

"Oh?"

(Are you here to look up at the stars too?)

"No, I'm just here to fish."

"Wow!"

(What is touching fish! Touching King Carp!)

"..."

Because he inherited the waveguide talent from another generation, Nanfeng could easily understand what the green caterpillar said to him.

Looking at the surprised and excited green caterpillar in front of him, Nanfeng silently leaned against the tree trunk.

The cold touch on his back made him feel a little more secure.

This green caterpillar with some social arrogance left him at a loss as to what to do.

[You have a great time chatting with the shiny green caterpillars in the breeding house]

[System scanning...]

[Because the green caterpillar had seen Rayquaza when he was young, he had a dream: he wanted to evolve into Rayquaza]

[Perception that this individual has lofty dreams]

[Conquer the green caterpillar and complete the novice mission to unlock system functions]

At the same time as there was a tinkling sound next to his ears, the green caterpillar poked its head forward again and happily shared with Nanfeng,

"Ooooooh! Ooooh!"

(Do you like coming here too! Me too! This place is great! One night, I saw a dark green figure with thunder across the sky here!

He is so handsome and powerful!Since then, I have come here every day, on this tallest tree, hoping to see him again! )

"..."

Even if there was no response, the green caterpillar was still talking.

"Wow!"

(I asked the eldest Elder Baddie here, and he said that it might be the legendary Pokémon, the guardian of the sky, Rayquaza!

I also want to become an elf like him!

One day, all the elves in the breeding house will look up to me! )

Maybe the reason why this green caterpillar is shining is because he is too willing to dream.

Dreams are always bright yellow, symbolizing day, longing, and hope.

However, his south wind is different.

He is colorful black.

He sighed and said cruelly and ruthlessly to the green caterpillar,

"Insects are born from worms, dragons are born from dragons, and you guys all..."

"Wow!"

(I have recalled it! Although I am a little different from everyone else, my brothers are both green! As long as I work hard to grow up, we will still be very similar!

That means that as long as I become big enough, long enough, and strong enough, and work hard to accumulate strength, I will be able to evolve into a Pokémon like him one day! )

"..."

Stunned by the enthusiasm in the green caterpillar's impassioned tone, Nan Fengba chirped a few times, changed his angle and asked the green caterpillar,

"Have you ever told your parents about your dream?"

"Ugh..."

(I have said it before, but I have said it...)

As he said this, the energetic green caterpillar turned its head in a rare turn and lay down on the branch. It continued to mutter like a broken thought,

"Uh oh... oh oh."

(But I will work hard.

As long as I work out hard, practice my skills diligently, challenge powerful Pokémon, and improve my strength... one day I can do it. )

"..."

Listening to the green caterpillar's murmurs and seeing him huddled up in a ball, Nan Feng felt somewhat uncomfortable.

It seems like many years ago...

No, even when I was 17 years old in that world, this conversation also happened.

"Have you told your parents about this dream?"

The teacher in front of her had a serious face. She pushed up her eyes on the bridge of her nose and stared at Nanfeng who was standing opposite her.

Nan Feng, who did not dare to face her gaze, lowered his head and held the corner of his clothes with his right hand, trying to draw some courage from it.

At the end, the teacher's deep breathing sounded like some kind of ultimatum, and finally unable to bear the aggressive silence, Nanfeng spoke,

"I've said it before..."

"They agreed?"

"How can they let you act like this? It's a good thing to have dreams, but do you never consider your performance level?"

The teacher's tone was full of disbelief. Nanfeng, who read something from her tone, instinctively defended:

"But I will work hard.

As long as I work hard on the questions, memorize the words diligently, and ask the teacher when I encounter questions I don't know, I can improve my grades... one day I can do it. "

“Things like grades vary from person to person, and some people are just not suited for it.

Look at the person at your desk, and he gets perfect marks every time in math. That’s not only because he works hard, but also because he’s smart. Do you know?

It is important to learn this thing and work hard, but talent...well, although it is a bit cruel, you must understand it.

It’s a good thing to have dreams, but it should also be based on the actual situation. After you fill out your application, and you say you can’t even reach the score line, isn’t this a waste..."

……

Although what the teacher said was cruel, she was right.

He used to work hard, getting up early and working late at night, from [-] to [-], day and night.

But in the end, it was his limit to get into a school where he was promoted to 211 through his 'own efforts'.

Ordinary people, no matter how hard they work, can never compare to geniuses.

Because geniuses also work hard, and they won't just stand there and watch, letting you surpass them.

"Ugh..."

The meaningless muttering of the green caterpillar dragged Nanfeng's thoughts back to reality.

Some things cannot be changed even after time travel.

It will not increase IQ, it will not increase force, and it will not increase useful experience.

It just gives people false hope.

Give him the illusion that as long as I work hard, struggle, and be positive, I will be the protagonist.

Nanfeng knew that his mentality would be like this for the rest of his life.

I had looked forward to it and longed for it, but in the end I had nothing, so it was ruined.

but……

This green caterpillar is different. He is still a naive fool with dreams.

Thinking of this, Nan Feng asked the green caterpillar, by some strange combination of circumstances,

"Do you want to come with me?"

Nanfeng's question made the green caterpillar turn over, straighten its upper body again and tilt it slightly backwards. Its big eyes were full of hope.

"Uh oh...?"

(Do you want to take me away...?)

The Green Caterpillar's cautious and expectant question left Nanfeng at a loss as to how to answer.

Damn.

Sure enough, you shouldn't have asked this question.

Now, how should he repay the green caterpillar's expectations?

He wanted to become Rayquaza.

Unless a modifier is opened, his dream will never be realized.

As long as this green caterpillar can turn into Rayquaza, he can just dress up as a woman in the Pure Land, right?

People always need to experience cruelty to realize that dreams are fake, and Pokémon is no exception.

As long as I can fully understand this feeling, maybe I can use a gentler way to make this green caterpillar give up this unrealistic dream, right?

A mediocre useless man without any merit seems to be a good match for a green caterpillar that lives at the bottom of the food chain and is slaughtered by others.

After thinking about it for a while, Nanfeng took a deep breath, reorganized his words, and said to the green caterpillar carefully:

"I know your dream.

Even though it sounds…fanciful, I respect it.

The reality is very cruel. Not everyone and all Pokémon’s dreams can come true. Your grand dream is more likely to make your life miserable.

But you have to try everything, right?

I feel that you are destined to have no future in the breeding house. There is no way to realize your dreams here.

So, if I said I wanted to take you away, would you? "

After listening to Nanfeng's words, the green caterpillar's big dark eyes were already sparkling with light.

This is the first time he has been recognized.

This is the first time he has been selected by a trainer.

The green caterpillar raised his head and looked carefully at the young man sitting in front of him.

His limbs are thin and slender, and the ordinary blue and white sportswear looks extra wide on him.

His hair was very long, and the strands of hair on his forehead even blocked his eyes, making him look a little more gloomy.

But the green caterpillar felt that this was the most handsome boy he had ever seen in this breeding house from birth to now.

Moreover, he had waves that made him feel very comfortable, much like the powerful master Itachi who lived in the doctor's house.

He must be a very powerful person!

Such a powerful person...

He said he respected my dream and wanted to take me with him.

He didn’t laugh at me because of my dream, nor did he show me pity, nor did he exclude me and laugh at me because I looked strange.

He reached out to me now.

Seeing Nanfeng's invitation gesture, the green caterpillar nodded fiercely and responded with an extremely firm voice:

"Wow!"

(I am willing to follow you! Become your Pokémon!)

While stretching out its head to touch Nanfeng's palm, the green caterpillar secretly swore in his heart:

I must become Rayquaza.

No matter how much effort you put in, no matter how hard the process may be.

This is not just for my dream, but also to not let him down!

Only by becoming stronger can I repay his kindness to me!

[Dream Come True System helps everyone with big dreams]

Nan Feng was stunned by the window in front of him and the noisy tinkling in his ears. He was about to slowly climb down from the tree trunk when he fell straight to the ground due to excessive shock.

Thanks to this world for giving mortals the physique of a young man from New Town, after falling from a height of at least one meter, his legs were only a little numb.

After patting the dust on his body, Nanfeng raised his hand to hold down his right eyelid, which had started to beat wildly. At the same time, he carefully looked at the translucent crystal blue system prompt box that popped up in front of his eyes.

Can this system really open a modifier for green caterpillars?

Can you evolve into Rayquaza by completing advanced daily tasks?

Exempt?

His brain is shaking, okay?

It wasn't until he reached out to pull the green caterpillar off the tree trunk and put it on the ground that he regained some sense.

No matter what happens, don't panic. Hold a cigarette to calm down. If you don't have a cigarette, just imitate a wooden gecko, or hold a piece of grass in your mouth.

The sourness in his mouth made Nanfeng finally figure it out.

The green caterpillar evolves into Rayquaza. This is a fantasy. How can the system handle it so easily?

To put it nicely, you can easily evolve by completing the main mission ([-]), completing advanced daily tasks, and increasing the percentage.

Moreover, this daily task seems relatively simple at first glance, and it is not impossible for the green caterpillar to risk his life to complete it.

However, this is just stage 1.1!

Saitama-style training begins at stage one, but will the green caterpillar still be able to do it in stages nine and ten?

As he walked towards the breeding house, Nanfeng thought about it.

This is indeed a perfect opportunity for the green caterpillar to give up his dream.

When he fails to complete the tasks issued by the system, he will probably give up on his dream of evolving into Rayquaza, right?

With these thoughts in mind, Nanfeng's clamoring brain calmed down, and he returned to the door of the breeding house with the green caterpillar squirming hard beside him.

Opening the door, Nanfeng stopped and turned to look at the green caterpillar that suddenly became motionless behind him.

"Let's go? After completing the formalities, we will go home together."

……

"Wow!"

(coming!)
