The Spirit World

Chapter 886 [Time and Space Reversal] - Colin Corridge
[If... I had more chances...]

"You spent seven days and seven nights in...the cave!"

Erica was a little confused.

She held Elaine in her arms and analyzed Jack's "nonsense".

Because this is simply impossible!
"It's only been two days since you entered the Valley of Winners!"

"Yes, yes! It's only been two days!"

Elaine was eating a lollipop and was held by Erica with a comfortable look on her face.

But I heard... the cuckoo outside called seven times..."

Jack also walked ahead muttering.

"That doesn't necessarily mean seven days... idiot..."

"Well, in a sense, listening to the cuckoo to tell time is not reliable at all... But when we were outside, the clock tower in Wenti County rang the bell three times, it was a little more reliable..."

"I do not know then……"

Jack shook his head, shook his whole body, and looked very energetic.

The two of them were on their way to Fran. There was no need to travel long distance to get to Fran. They only needed to reach the teleportation point in Wenti County to reach their destination - the capital of the principality - Fran.

They did receive Fran's notice, which was a pure white envelope decorated with irises. The notices for the swordsman and summoner subjects were stamped with the fiery red images of a sword and a dragon respectively.

The admission notice of Fulan Royal Academy is delivered in the form of a distinctive majestic big white goose, which drops the admission notice on the head of the prospective student or on the roof, making a loud "goose, goose, goose" call.

This indicates that the child can enter Fran.

On this day, the royal geese raised in the royal pond of Flandre Royal Academy reached their busiest time of the year. They always received food thrown to them by the great wizards themselves, as well as various rewards.

When two fat, white geese landed on the roof of his house, Rajel was so surprised that he crawled out of the ditch on the farm, as if he was the child who could go to school in Fran.

Aileya scolded her husband for being useless, and she almost had a fight with the goose, because the goose did not simply hand over the admission letter to Aileya, but held its head high, holding the white and bright red admission letter in its mouth and arrogantly begging for food, or else it would run around with the admission letter in its mouth, running all over the Niman Farm.

Alia was held back by Rajel, but the goose that flew into the sky was cursing, leaving the two children looking at each other in confusion.

Now, this pride in going to study in Fulan was, after all, the result of going through a lot of hardships.

"Oh... I don't think it matters at all."

Elaine licked the lollipop with her big dragon tongue. In this place with a wide road and carriages speeding around, lollipops were not available anywhere else, so she cherished it very much.

"Three days and three nights or seven days and seven nights is just a blink of an eye for us giant dragons. We don't need to care about it at all... We don't even feel it!"

"Some dragons are very lazy. Sometimes they sleep so soundly in their caves that they can sleep for several years or even decades. From birth to death, a person only lives for a few decades. Seven days and seven nights and three days and three nights are simply... nothing!"

Elaine was enjoying the meal, not paying any attention to Jack who was puzzled beside her.

"The strength of the dragon's life source is second only to that of the mountain clan. It is no exaggeration to say that if the dragon can continue to use its method of [returning to chick] to prolong its life, then the dragon's lifespan cannot be measured simply by its lifespan..." Erica stroked Elaine's dragon head.

Elaine's wings flapped slightly, and the ice-blue wings were still shining emerald blue even without the ice elves surrounding them, sharp and soft.

"Mountain Clan... Erica also knows about the Mountain Clan?" Elaine stopped in surprise, but only a second later, she smiled to herself: "Erica knows everything, so what's the big deal about knowing about the Mountain Clan? Right?"

She shook her body and flapped her little wings.

Some passers-by were in a hurry, some were walking leisurely, and their expressions were generally different. It was quite strange to see two children holding the "little dragon in maid costume" like a pet. Most of the looks they cast were puzzled and curious. "Hey... I don't know when I can see Colin again..."

Jack looked a little worried. He carried a sword that was almost as long as his body on his back, and his face was full of worry as he looked forward to seeing Colin.

Perhaps, this little boy could really become his first friend.

The young master who lost to Theatus and only got the second place in the Dragon Conference made him very unhappy and his self-confidence was frustrated. When he met Colin who also got the second place, he seemed to be able to cry out the pain in his heart. Colin was not a boy who would be discouraged because of losing once!
They stayed together for seven days and seven nights.

He could feel Colin's unique strength of never giving up and surging forward!
He felt that Colin was very opinionated.

He felt that Colin was very thoughtful.

He felt that Colin was more delicate than any other boy he had ever met. He seemed to be able to see through him at a glance, and asked all the questions he wanted to ask, answering his questions and solving his doubts...

No, it shouldn’t be about answering questions…

Because he always complains.

How long did he practice swordsmanship in order to compete in the Dragon Conference?

He endured so much hardship in order to catch up.

In order to avoid being lectured by the strict Erica, he suppressed his grievances.

He was like a human grievance vending machine, complaining to Colin mercilessly.

In the dark cave, he told Colin so many bitter words...

He didn't know the time, he just knew Colin always listened to the end.

Listen carefully and then tell him.

Hey, Jack! The Dragon Race is really important! Just being second place can make many people accept their defeat with their heads down?

You have done very well. Although you did not win first place, your efforts have been rewarded. You should not be sad...

"Hey, Jack...you know what??"

Colin said, sighing as if for the first time before receiving a guest.

Jack's thoughts at the time were! It turns out that Colin can also be sad...

"Actually, I really envy you... You have a sister who keeps pushing you to make progress behind your back, and there are many people who are willing to care about you. If they don't care about you, how can they spur you on?"

"I have no brothers or sisters. I can only rely on my own realization."

"Sometimes I get lazy, and I feel like I really shouldn't do that... So many people have high expectations of me, but I'm still like this, not working hard. We have to work hard all the time, so that I can meet their expectations..."

"I don't feel like they're holding me back... I just feel like..."

"I bound them..."

Speaking innocently at such a young age.

After thinking about it, there is nothing more to think about.
