"I don't know. I don't want to hear it. I don't believe it!"
Elsa covered her ears and squatted on the ground, shaking her head vigorously.
How could she accept such a thing!
A few people suddenly came out and said that she was not the child of her parents and that she was the child of another person. She had just borrowed that woman's belly to experience the birth process again … Who would believe such words!
Regardless of the authenticity, even if it was true, it would be difficult for people to accept it!
Her family, who had always lived together, suddenly became strangers who had nothing to do with her? Who could accept such a huge change?
Her mother was clearly so weak, but she still did her best to take care of her until she grew up.
Although her father was often not at home, every time he came back, he would bring delicious food and play with her. The way he looked at her was clearly like he was looking at his daughter. If she was not his daughter, how could he love her so much?!
At least, Elsa herself could not accept it!
Impossible!
What he said was false!
This was not true!
"It's true. I'm not lying to you. You must believe me, Elu. I'm your Uncle Hal!"
Hal Kamanda was anxious to let Elsa accept him.
Tang En stopped him, shook his head, and whispered, "Don't force her."
"But …"
"Let her slowly accept the truth."
In fact, Elsa should have noticed her abnormality a long time ago.
She had been far stronger than her peers since she was a child, even stronger than adult men. If it was only explained by talent, it would be too incredible for a little girl to have this talent. What's more, many people knew that the so-called "Megalosaurus Power" was not too rare, but no one had ever been able to obtain such abnormal power like Elsa.
Elsa had long suspected that there was something wrong with her. Therefore, she had been deliberately controlling her strength. She hated being called "Freakishly Strong Woman". After all, Danny, Tom, and the others had suffered a lot because they called Big Sister "Freakishly Strong Woman" behind her back.
Occasionally, Elsa would dream that she had grown wings and was flying leisurely in the sky. Although she was not flying steadily or fast, she was undoubtedly flying with her own wings. Sometimes, it felt so real that Elsa could not distinguish between reality and dreams.
When she was young, she even secretly jumped down from trees because she always felt that she would grow wings and fly. If her body wasn't strong enough, she would have fallen to her death.
However, all of these anomalies were answered today.
Her background was indeed not ordinary. Not only was it not ordinary, it was also frighteningly good!
Dragons!
Who would dare to believe it?
The so-called Freakishly Strong Woman was just the normal strength of Dragons. After being reborn by Clairat, her strength had not yet grown. If she fully grew, her strength would further increase.
The flight in the dream was not fake. It was the memory of her time as Elu, Hakesha. Although she had lost part of her consciousness on the surface, her soul had not changed. The deep memories still existed in her soul. As long as her soul was not destroyed, those memories would not disappear. She would eventually find them back.
But …
Elsa was very afraid of that day.
She was afraid. She was afraid that after she found her memories, she would no longer be herself.
She would no longer be Elsa. She would become the so-called Elu, Hakesha that they talked about.
When she was no longer herself? Who could accept such a cruel reality?
At least, Elsa could not.
If Tang En encountered such a thing, he would not be able to accept it.
Changing memories was like changing into a different person and identity. The meaning of one's existence had completely disappeared.
Tang En knew what Elsa was worried about at the moment.
The problem she was facing now was actually a split personality (in fact, it was not, but she thought so). It was also known as dissociative personality disorder. She was worried that another memory of her would replace her current existence.
There was no doubt that her situation was very similar to Elijah. However, Elijah was the reincarnation of the Goddess. She was very clear about her own situation. Moreover, she often observed the world through Elijah's eyes. The main consciousness also communicated and guided her surface consciousness through the spirit. This made it easy for her to accept the current situation. When she grew up, she would slowly accept the main consciousness and awaken it would be very smooth.
If she resisted like Elsa, she would reject her past.
In fact, whether it was Elsa or Elu, Hakesha, they were all self-consciousness. Even if she accepted the truth and accepted the memories of Elu, her memories as Elsa would not disappear. Her consciousness would not change. She was still herself. If she was aware of this, she would not be so afraid.
Perhaps, what she needed was comfort.
Tang En squatted down and hugged Elsa from behind.
The warm embrace made Elsa tremble, and then subconsciously shrank into Tang En's arms. The crying girl raised her head and looked at Tang En, wanting to get some comfort from him.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Tang En said softly, "Whether you are willing to accept your past identity or not, I am still your big brother."
"Big brother Tang En!"
Elsa cried again. "I'm really scared. I'm scared that I will no longer be myself. Is what they said true?"
"… It's true."
After hesitating for a moment, Tang En decided to tell her the truth.
A white lie would not give her much comfort. Instead, it would arouse her disgust after the truth was revealed. It was better to let her face the reality.
Without waiting for Elsa to speak, Tang En hugged her and said in a deep voice, "But you don't have to be afraid. Whether it is Elu, Hakesha, or Elsa, you are still you. Elu and Hakesha's memories will not replace the current you, and Elsa will not disappear. You are the same person."
"But, but that is another strange memory —"
"That is still your memory, isn't it?"
Tang En smiled and rubbed her head. "Whether you are willing to accept the reality or not, the reality will not change. Elu and Hakesha are the past you, and Elsa is the present you. You don't have to worry that you will disappear."
In addition to worrying about her disappearance, the reason why Elsa was so sad was that she did not want to deny her current family. Her grandparents had nothing to do with her, so wouldn't she become a stranger?
Tang En knew her fear very well, so he said, "In addition, you don't have to worry that Aunt Clairat and Uncle Abedon will not want you. Don't forget, they already know your identity, but they have always raised you as their own daughter. Isn't this enough to show their love for you?"
Tang En thought for a moment and asked another question. "In your opinion, in a family, which is more important, blood or nurturing?"
Elsa was startled. "Of course, blood …"
"Wrong, very wrong."
Twain shook his head and said, "No matter whose child you are, the parents who raised you up painstakingly are the ones you should really respect and show filial piety to. The so-called blood relationship is actually not as important as you think. It's just that parents usually don't abandon their children, so the blood relationship we usually talk about often includes the nurturing relationship. Naturally, it feels more important when there's a bonus."
In Prandal, the mainstream was still the theory of blood, so the blood relationship was very important. Tang En's statement was simply challenging everyone's worldview. Even Elsa was stunned.
Tang En gently wiped the tears on Elsa's face. "Think about it from another perspective. After the biological parents abandoned the child, if it were not for the adoptive parents who raised the child, the poor child would have died long ago, right? Isn't abandonment a very cruel act? "
Elsa nodded subconsciously. The dazed girl felt that Tang En's words were very reasonable, but the common sense in her heart made it difficult for her to break through the concept in her heart.
"Well, let's think about it from another perspective."
Tang En shrugged and said, "Although you are not Uncle Abedon's daughter, even if the purpose of Elu and Hakesha is to use Aunt Clairat to reconstruct their bodies, you are still Aunt Clairat's child, right? There is no doubt about this. So, you are her biological daughter, right? "
Elsa nodded.
"Uncle Abedon and Aunt Clairat are husband and wife, so you are their daughter, right?"
Elsa nodded again.
"Then what are you afraid of?"
Tang En asked, "You don't understand at all. I am afraid that the ones who should be worried about being abandoned should be the two of them, right?"
The daughter who raised her finally knew her true identity as a noble descendant of Dragons. Could she still accept her mortal parents? This worry was inevitable, and it might even be something that Abedon and Clairat had been worried about all this time.
Elsa came back to her senses, and her chaotic mind suddenly became clear.
Yes, since Mom and Dad haven't said anything about this, it means that they have always raised me as their real daughter. They love me so much, so how could they abandon me just because I know about this?
Yes, there is no need to worry at all!
Thinking of this, Elsa finally woke up, but at the same time, a question surfaced in her mind.
Am I really that "Elu and Hakesha"?
Am I really a Dragon?
There can't be such a big coincidence, right?
At this time, Halkamanda, who had been silent, stepped forward, looked at Elsa, and said, "Maybe you will doubt it, but I have a gift for you from the king. After you accept it, you won't have such doubts."
Gift?
What gift could it be?
Elsa looked puzzled, and then she saw the gift that Halkamanda took out.
