Benjamin is an urban elf from Port Chantil.
Before being "redeemed", he was in the same situation as all city elves of this age-illiterate, no parents, was casually given a personal name, worked with humans, and finally took a fraction of human wages ... so many years, he It's all over here.
Except for occasionally going to the elf elders in the slum to listen to the story, he felt that there was no connection with the elven race. Moreover, his face is ugly, and it is far from the legendary beautiful elves ... Benjamin always thinks there is any misunderstanding in this, for example ... his race is actually a goblin, and the ears of the goblin are sharp. Yes ... if you can, he wants to be a local spirit.
But the people around him stubbornly believe that he is an "elf", because in this way they can spit at the "elf", thus obtaining a false sense of satisfaction. However, Benjamin is very loyal to the slums. Although the people here are indifferent, he can rely on these people for a long time. Especially the elves and elders, each of whom is old, but still trying to maintain that the tribe will not fall apart ... if there are still tribes.
"The tribe is in the heart of every elf."
City elves are allowed to own "personal property", which seems to be stronger than slaves. This is not the case-the city elves' property is not protected, anyone who sees what the city elf holds in their hands can be taken away directly . The city elves want to carry something, and they must avoid everyone at night, like a thief. You should know that the slaves can still have meals, and there is a piece of clothing on the roof and cover (the church requires that the name is not a slave but a debtor), but the city elves have nothing.
In this world, the only thing that is still warm to them is the church.
The Church of the Good God clearly stipulates that killing city elves is equivalent to killing people, and finally distinguishes city elves from livestock from a level. After the death of the murderer, they cannot enter the kingdom of good gods-this is the fundamental reason for protecting the city elves from being slaughtered. In addition, the church will not specifically avoid the city elves when giving food and clothing.
Speaking of which, the best for them in the church is the Silver Moon Church-because for the Silver Moon bitch, it is not that the city elves are garbage, but all but a limited number of elf races are garbage! Since it's all garbage, it doesn't matter whether it's up or down. So when the city elf went to the Silver Moon Church to receive alms, she didn't see it at all. And the general kindness of the elven clan to some innocent personality, so that they can not refuse to reach out to the hand.
However, when those redeemers actually appeared, Benjamin expressed his heartfelt gratification that he was indeed a city elf and was eligible to be "redeemed"-although he did not know when he became a slave.
Under the protection of those people, for the first time, Benjamin could hold his property in his hands and walk on the road with fairness and integrity. Although the onlookers were still indifferent, their throats shook, but they swallowed their saliva instead of spitting it on Benjamin-this alone, Benjamin felt worth the vote.

After receiving the multigrain cake, the simple map and a thick set of clothes ... Until then, Benjamin was still in a trance, and the journey began. The road marked on the entire map can be described in one sentence-"through the forest, climb the snowy mountains, reach the place of hope", there is really no place in the middle of the road!
But when he walked into the forest for the first time, he was only deeply afraid of those straight-growing guys, without the slightest "elf's joy" ... I must be a goblin!
The journey started in such a muddled way. It was not that Benjamin was alone on the road. Almost a hundred people in the entire slum rushed in. This made him not lonely at all, and even too busy to die. Benjamin used to work as a migrant worker on the dock, so he has a sturdy physique rarely seen among elves. So he tried to help everyone in the whole journey before and after running, and there was no time to hurt spring and fall.
"How could you be a goblin, you are obviously a troll." The elves always like to make fun of him like this.
Benjamin can at least see that after returning to the forest, the hearts of the old elves are delighted ...
The ranks of elves soon decreased by one-third for a variety of reasons-some old people suddenly saw a place with a beautiful scenery and suddenly stopped. Say "Let's go, I want to die here", and then left the team regardless of retention. Benjamin is helpless. The oldest elves still have valuable forest knowledge, and these old men are urban elves when they are born. They know nothing about the outside world ... only become a burden to the team.
They will not see Benjamin-when the brigade left, the "ransom buyers" reappeared and forced these old men away by various means. From the perspective of the city elves, they really haven't had a few years to live; but from the perspective of the elves, they are still young! It is no problem to live a few years and live another human life. Experienced and precipitated laborers are a lot of wealth!
The advantage of the elven race is longevity, while the disadvantage is that a lazy attitude to life completely wastes this advantage.
The city elves are different, they also have the advantage of longevity, and at the same time have formed a tradition of hard work. The Chinese people know that the hard-working and self-reliant people who understand it ca n’t beat any power, and sooner or later they will rise again!
"Old people" voluntarily give up, but there are some city elves who have lived well in the past. They simply don't want to leave the city.
So when the "surveillance" people left, they immediately got into the forest and fled. Some of these people are gang members, whistleblowers and loan sharks in the elven area, almost all of them help humans to exploit the city elves. Benjamin chose to sneer at these people-now the group of city elves has disappeared, so what do they do to please the master behind them? Really think the host is very kind?
Benjamin knew that they didn't necessarily understand ... but they were still more confident about how to please their masters than the unknown front.
The reason for the last type of city elves to leave the team is more complicated. Some are looking for elf cousins; some want to go to the priest, thinking that God can help solve all problems; there is even a girl who can't let go of secret love ... secretly returning to the city.
Benjamin was not in the mood to manage those people, because those who left thought they would live better if they left the group—in other words, they were all strong guys—and now his burden is heavier.
"I'm going to starve to death, can I have a meal?"
Benjamin, who was carrying a large bag and was too tired, looked up in amazement after hearing the sound. He saw a dirty guy falling under the tree in front of him, and he was shaking his hand towards him.
