Kanto region, Nibi City, suburb of the city. A young man of about 15 years old was sitting on a public bench diagonally opposite the shop near a shabby shop that sold elves.
The young man was wearing an ill-fitting suit that had been washed so many times that it had turned white. His handsome face was sallow and emaciated, and there were even a few bruises on it. Judging from the young man's appearance, the young man was clearly a child from a poor family.
The young man's name was Kaede Sato. He was a villager living on the outskirts of Nibi City. He was currently working in Nibi City to earn money. Unfortunately, the money he earned from working hard in a convenience store was robbed by a group of despicable hooligans before he could even warm up.
Kaede Sato naturally resisted at first, but when he saw the hooligans holding a pokeball in their hands, he decisively chose to give up because he knew that if he resisted, he would immediately lose both his money and himself.
Kaede Sato did not blame himself for having his money robbed. He had experienced this kind of situation many times since he left the village to live in Nibi City.
"Sure enough, it still won't work. No matter which world I'm in, this way of living will always put my future in the hands of others. If I want to control my own fate, I must first master great power."
Kaede Sato leaned back on the chair and took out a wrinkled cigarette. After lighting it with a lighter, he stared blankly at the sunset in the sky, then gradually recalled his previous experience.
In fact, apart from being a villager on the outskirts of Nibi City, the young man also had another identity.
That was, he was an earthling from the 21st century on Earth. Back on Earth, his name was Jiang Cheng. He was a talented student from a famous university and was a programmer by profession.
Jiang Cheng's background was very simple, just like the current Kaede Sato in the Elven World. He was also a child from the village, but with the help of the college entrance examination, he successfully entered a famous university that was second to none in the country.
Because his parents were honest farmers, under the influence of what they saw and heard, Jiang Cheng's temperament was also quite honest. He had always been very law-abiding and did what he should do.
Ever since he graduated from university, he relied on his diploma from a famous university and his strong programming skills. He was quickly hired by a Fortune 500 company and became a programmer.
Society was a big dye vat, and there were all kinds of people in it. Even if you lived a peaceful life, there would still be people who would approach you, use you, or even hurt you.
Because Jiang Cheng was honest, hardworking, and very capable, he was soon recognized by his superiors and became the superior of most of his predecessors.
Naturally, there were many seniors who were secretly dissatisfied with Jiang Cheng, who was far less experienced than them.
Unfortunately, Jiang Cheng's temperament was just like that. Even though he was slightly influenced by society, he was still a very law-abiding and honest person, and honest people were easy to be used by others.
In the end, under the cooperation of a separation in appearance, Jiang Cheng's "senior" subordinates played dirty tricks on him. In the end, Jiang Cheng made a major mistake at work and caused the company to suffer heavy losses. Not only was he fired, but he was also forced to carry a debt that he almost could not repay in his life.
Jiang Cheng's family conditions were not good to begin with. It was only because Jiang Cheng graduated and went to find a job that things got better. Now that they had suffered such a heavy loss, it was simply bad news. Unable to withstand the blow, the two old people soon passed away.
The death of the two old people undoubtedly made Jiang Cheng, who was almost forced into a desperate situation, even more desperate. After the two old people's funerals, the thought of suicide kept lingering in his mind.
But by chance, when he was drowning his sorrows in a bar, he met the seniors from his previous company, and even overheard the truth that they spat out after drinking.
After hearing the truth that he was framed, Jiang Cheng was very angry. But as a graduate from a famous university, he still resisted and did not use violence to solve the problem. Instead, he sought legal means to clear his grievances, and the first thing he did was to report the case to the Public Security Bureau.
Moreover, he also went to his previous company to explain the truth. But it had been too long, and a lot of data and information had been destroyed. There was no way to find out the truth, which meant that Jiang Cheng did not have any evidence to clear his grievances.
Old Frank usually didn't get angry, but once he did, it would be terrible. After being unable to obtain redemption from the law, Jiang Cheng's heart was filled with unwillingness when faced with those seniors who flaunted their prowess at him.
In the end, he chose to walk a path of no return. Since the law could not uphold justice for him, then he would seek justice for himself.
To be able to enter one of the best universities in the country from a poor family, in addition to his extraordinary efforts, Jiang Cheng was naturally a person with a high IQ. Although he could not be compared to those freaks with an IQ of more than 200, having an IQ of more than 130 was not a problem at all.
For an ordinary person to anger a person with a high IQ, and even make the person with a high IQ have the intention to kill, it was definitely a disaster for the ordinary person.
When he was in university, other than majoring in computer science, which was a very popular job, Jiang Cheng was also very interested in chemistry.
For this reason, he specially took this course as a minor and even obtained a degree certificate. Therefore, to Jiang Cheng, it was not difficult to create some flammable and explosive items like detonators.
After Jiang Cheng used his hacking skills to grasp the daily schedules of those seniors, the bombs were successfully delivered to their homes on time.
In the end, Jiang Cheng succeeded in taking revenge, but he also became a notorious wanted criminal.
Under the power of the country, it was still difficult for Jiang Cheng to escape. He was quickly judged as a criminal suspect and was wanted by the country.
After experiencing almost two years of life as a fugitive, Jiang Cheng was tired of this endless life. He chose to return to his hometown and commit suicide.
When the police found him, he had already lost his breath in front of his parents' grave. He left behind a suicide note, hoping to be buried together with his parents.
To Jiang Cheng, this life could be said to be a tragedy. His wish was very simple, that was to live well and let his parents live a happy life.
But in the end, he realized that even such a simple wish, without enough power to protect it, would easily burst like a bubble. Sometimes, being too honest was a mistake.
Unfortunately, when Jiang Cheng realized this fact, it was already too late.
And God seemed to feel pity for Jiang Cheng's tragic life, so he opened his eyes and specially gave him a second chance to start his life. Therefore, Jiang Cheng transmigrated to the Elven World.
In this life, Jiang Cheng also had a poor but warm family. To Jiang Cheng, who had experienced the loss of his parents when he was young, this was an extremely precious gift. Therefore, Jiang Cheng had always been very filial to the two elders in his family. He was famous in the village for being a filial son.
In fact, Jiang Cheng's transmigration, Kaede Sato, was an abandoned baby that the two elders had picked up from the roadside. The two elders also had a biological son.
Unfortunately, compared to the filial Jiang Cheng, this biological son was an unfilial son. He was always gluttonous and lazy, and he even got the bad habits of drinking and gambling.
Before Jiang Cheng came to this family, he ran away because he owed a stock debt. Until now, his whereabouts were unknown. The two elders' poor family was also the reason why some people often came to their door to collect debts.
When Jiang Cheng was 14 years old, the two elders finally left with a smile after Jiang Cheng did his best to take care of them in their later years.
Not long after the two elders passed away, the unfilial son rushed back immediately. The reason why he came back was naturally not to burn incense for the two elders to feel guilty, but to snatch the family property.
Although the two elders had made a will before they died, choosing to let Jiang Cheng inherit the house and the land. However, because he was not their biological son, and Jiang Cheng did not want to make things difficult for the two elders, who he was indebted to, over this matter, Jiang Cheng gave the house and the land deed to the unfilial son without saying a word. He only requested that the other party not disturb the two elders' grave. After making the other party swear a poison oath and having the villagers bear witness, he left the family with nothing.
Jiang Cheng was neither unfamiliar nor familiar with the Elven World.
In fact, Jiang Cheng was also an Elven fan when he was young. However, due to his family's financial situation, he usually borrowed the game from his friends to play.
After he went to college, he took the opportunity to use the free internet in college to fulfill his childhood wish (games and animations). Coupled with his extraordinary memory, he knew most of the information about the elves. Therefore, he was not unfamiliar with the elven world.
However, a game was a game, and an anime was an anime. When compared to the real Elven World, there were many differences.
For example, in the anime, Xiao Zhi was only charred after taking a hit from Pikachu's 100,000 volts. Although the humans in this world were much stronger than those on Earth, if they did not have some special means to deal with it, it would still be life-threatening to be hit by a 100,000 volts.
To be able to survive a 100,000 volts attack, only the Elves with such an insane physique could survive.
Yes, in this world inhabited by the Elves, most humans were in an awkward position. Even a small Lada had the strength to chew through rocks. Killing an ordinary human was a piece of cake.
"Only the Elves can deal with the Elves." This was the phrase that Jiang Cheng had heard the most since he came to this world. Jiang Cheng believed this phrase without a doubt.
Due to the birth of pokeballs or elven items with similar functions, humans finally gained the power to fight against the lesser elves. A profession called trainer was born in the world of the elves and became an important force for humans to gradually rule over the world.
The full name of a Trainer was Elf Trainer. As the name suggested, it was a person who tamed and trained the Elves. To put it simply, it was a kind of Animal Trainer. If an ordinary human wanted to fight against wild Elves, the best way was to become a Trainer.
Once upon a time, when Jiang Cheng found out that he had traveled to the Elven World, he was very excited. He was also very much looking forward to becoming a Trainer, and then start his journey as a Trainer like Xiao Zhi in the anime.
Unfortunately, a Trainer who dealt with Elves for a long time was a high-risk profession. Every year, there were tens of thousands of people who wanted to become Trainers, but there were very few who could truly become a Trainer.
Just thinking about it, it was easy to understand that even with the little spirits, the trainer was still a human. If he didn't know how to use the little spirits to protect himself, the trainer would soon become a pile of dirt. Although the power was amazing, it was also extremely dangerous. It wasn't something an ordinary person could withstand.
To become a real Trainer, the first step was to be prepared to die at any time. If one became a Trainer just for fun, something bad would happen sooner or later.
Moreover, not everyone could become a Trainer. Aside from being a high-risk profession, a Trainer was also a high-risk investment profession.
To become a Trainer, after the first step was to be mentally prepared, the second step was to find a way to get a Elf.
Everyone was very clear about creatures like Elves. Usually, it would be fine if you did not provoke them, but once you angered them, they could press you to the ground at any time and even take your life. Most of those who wanted to capture Elves with their bare hands were already dead.
No matter which world it was, money was a very important thing to human society. That's right, the fastest and safest way to obtain Elves was to buy them with money.
Because many people wanted to become Trainers, a profession called Elf Hunters came into being. As long as you had enough money in your pocket, these mercenary Elf Hunters would do their best to help you capture even a Mythical Beast.
Of course, the Elves that were bought with money were naturally divided into different grades. The more money one spent, the better the Elves one could get.
However, one must know that even an ordinary Lada would cost at least a few thousand Alliance Coins. This was definitely not good news for those who came from poor families.
In fact, for most Trainers, a Beginner Elf was still very important. After all, one person's Beginner Elf was a little Lada that was casually caught by the roadside, while another person's Beginner Elf was a little Fire Dragon that had been cultivated. Which Elf would have greater achievements in the future? This should be a very simple question.
Well, after you completed the first and second steps of preparing to become a Trainer, you could begin your journey as a Trainer. Then, you would realize that the world was really too unfair.
After ordinary people obtained Elves and became Trainers, they had to train their own Elves. As for how to train them, it depended on the individual Trainer's ability.
Generally speaking, civilian Trainers could only explore on their own, but in this way, it was very easy to train their own Elves into trash.
A hundred Trainers would have a hundred different understandings of the same type of Elves, and a hundred different training methods. Among them, only the most practical training method would be able to bring out the greatest potential of the Elves.
At the same time, training Elves also required a lot of resources. Just the treatment of Elves that were injured in battle would cost a lot of money. In addition to the various Elves' food and other necessary Elven tools in the wild, all of these would cost a lot of money.
Therefore, in addition to appropriate training methods, Trainers who were not yet able to grow up must also have a certain amount of financial support.
Without sufficient financial support, one would have to improve the strength of one's Elves at an extremely slow pace. When one saw new Trainers who debuted later than one quickly surpass one by one, would one not feel a sense of grief and indignation?
In conclusion, in addition to being a Trainer was a high-risk profession, it was also a high-risk investment profession. Ordinary families could not afford it. If a civilian wanted to become an independent Trainer, he would have to rely on ordinary methods. The difficulty was no less than walking on the Shudao on foot.
After some research, Jiang Cheng, who had lived two lives, naturally understood the nature of the Trainer profession. He was born in a poor family, so the Trainer profession was too far away for him.
All in all, he could not afford it at the moment. Besides, he still had to continue to take care of the two elders who had helped him a lot. Therefore, when he turned ten years old, he still did not have the slightest idea of becoming a Trainer.
It was not until the two elders passed away and he came to Nibi City to live alone that the idea of becoming a Trainer resurfaced in his mind.
The reason was very simple. After living in Nibi City, he found that he was still an unregistered resident. Because of this, many employers were unwilling to hire him, and those who were willing to hire him were those who were severely exploitative.
Misfortune never came alone. Due to the fact that he was an unregistered resident in Jiangcheng, the gangsters living in Nibi City were very fond of robbing him. They would often come to rob him of the money he had worked so hard to earn.
Therefore, Jiang Cheng's life in the past year was very difficult.
At present, Jiang Cheng had just been fired by the employer, and the small amount of money he had just earned was also robbed. Now he was facing the danger of starving to death.
At the same time, Jiang Cheng, also known as Kaede Sato, had had enough of such a miserable life. In this life, he had fulfilled his filial piety to the two elders who had raised him, so he did not have many regrets. Now, it was time to work hard for himself.
He wanted to control his own destiny in this world, and not live a mediocre and tragic life like his previous life.
Kaede Sato finished the cigarette in his hand. After exhaling a puff of white smoke, he stood up from the long chair and walked in the direction of the shabby shop.
"In this life, I must control my own destiny, and I must live an exciting life." Kaede Sato thought calmly. His eyes revealed an unprecedented determination.
At the same time, an almost undetectable blue light flashed in his eyes.
