Alien world

Chapter 1202 Chapter 124. Realizing my dream
He still remembers the impact he felt the first time he watched "When Freedom Knocks on the Door."

It was an indescribable emotion surging in his heart. It was freezing outside, so cold that he had to stamp his feet constantly, but the sunlight in the magic image seemed to shine on his face, making him feel the summer sunshine and sea breeze blowing on his face...

He had never seen the sea, but he knew that was the taste of freedom.

The magic lights in the theater gradually lit up, and Little Smo stared at the rats, hoping to discover something. Then he saw the faces of the rat craftsmen were filled with confusion, but brighter colors. At this moment, he saw himself in the rat head that was not similar to himself.

After returning to Liberty City, Little Smalls couldn't find the meaning of his existence anymore.

The rats stood up, and their deep rat language turned the theater into an ocean.

He guessed they were talking about another one.

"It's too late today. Let's see tomorrow." Little Smo led the ratmen craftsmen, whose footsteps were as light as if they were walking on cotton, back to the camp.

Except for one mouse.

"Let's go out for a walk?" Little Smo took the initiative to invite the leader of the ratmen craftsmen.

……

Such a conversation, such a time, and such two figures, it should have been a romantic date.

But even if the park street lights stretched their reflections to a narrower and longer size, there was no charming atmosphere.

"I asked Lord Annan for a name for you, and he named you Alvin and the Chipmunk."

"What the hell……"

Little Small guessed it was trying to say "what it means": "I don't know, but it's catchy, isn't it?"

He said solemnly: "You must cherish it, because it is an honor, the name given to you by Lord Annan himself."

"Annan stuff..." muttered the chief ratman craftsman, now called Alvin and the Chipmunk.

"Lord Annan!" Little Smalls reiterated, even if Alvin and the Chipmunks could crush him to death with their muscles.

"Lord Annan's stuff..."

Never mind, it will change.

Appropriately relaxing certain insistence is a means to bring people closer together, and he is very familiar with this.

"What do you usually do?" Little Simo asked casually.

Talk about everyday life.

"Dig." Alvin and the Chipmunk said briefly.

"Besides digging?"

"sleep."

"Besides sleeping?"

"Eat something."

"After eating?"

“Dig.”

"Don't you have a little...private time?"

"Personal stuff?"

His words were a little difficult for the Nezumi to understand.

"Then let me talk about myself..." Little Small thought about where to start, and then chose to start with the father that Alvin and the Chipmunks didn't have.

"My father was just an ordinary soldier of the kingdom. The only contribution he could make to the kingdom was his own life. But even such an insignificant contribution became ridiculous because of the kingdom's betrayal..."

Little Smo's family, which was originally considered a rich peasant family, fell apart in an instant. Without the protection of his parents, little Smo wandered around the town and suffered countless hardships.

At adult age, children’s bodies are proof of this.

He shivered countless times in the cold nights, thinking he was going to die, and he came close countless times to what homeless people call real death: taking off one's clothes and freezing to death in the heat.

The change came when Annan arrived. From that day on, a huge "ambition" grew in his frail body. He wanted everything that happened to him to stop happening to others, so that no one would starve, everyone would have their own land, and no nobles would step on people's heads...

Then the kingdom was defeated, and he followed Annan back to the Free City, and found that everything he had imagined was reflected in the Free City: there were no poor people, no one would go hungry, everyone was allocated a house and farmland, and there were no nobles who were arrogant to them anymore -

The sudden disappearance of the road ahead left him confused.

It’s like a boy who aspires to become a professional fighter and practices hard every day, training his combat skills. But when he really becomes a fighter, all he sees is the emptiness of having lost his goal.

He originally wanted to infect Alvin and the Chipmunks, but as he was talking, he started talking loudly as if he was moved, which attracted some surprised but kind looks.

"You must think I'll be sad? Not at all! Because I can't imagine that someone would really fulfill the dream of someone who can only dream in a dark corner!"

"I felt like I was back to the first time I watched "When Freedom Knocks on the Door", only this time, I became Chris..." He looked at Alvin and Chipmunk and asked, "Can you feel that sunshine?"

"It's night now..." said Alvin and the Chipmunk in a weird common language.

He felt despised by a rat man.

Looking up, Little Small found that they had unknowingly walked near the cemetery.

As if remembering something, Smalls took Alvin and the Chipmunks into the cemetery late at night.

They didn't notice that Annan, who was passing by not far away, seemed to be thinking about something.

"That's the statue of Lord Klar, the only heroic spirit in Liberty City. He died in the war with the Mad Dog Duke and was fortunately transformed into a heroic spirit." Little Smo introduced the first statue at the entrance of the cemetery. It was a strong warrior holding a magic musket high and roaring with his head raised.

He walked up to the statue and found that the Heroic Spirit Lord Kral was not there.

At the same time, in the Dawn Tavern, an illusory figure was lying on the edge of the table, nervously staring at the cards in his hand that were being turned over bit by bit, and then threw away all the cards in his hand in annoyance.

"I lost again!"

Passing the statue, the first thing you see is the monument in the center of the cemetery.

"The names of the soldiers who died in the battles of Liberty City throughout history are on it. Each star represents a soldier."

Smalls observed Alvin and the Rat as he spoke, but the Rat Man didn't seem to be sensitive to the sacrifice.

He changed his mindset and took Alvin and the Chipmunks to the statue area. He pointed to the only statue of a rat man and said, "It's called Broken Tooth. He's a hero of Liberty City. The little boy was saved by him."

Alvin and the Chipmunks still didn't react, even though it was one of their own people.

"I believe you can do it, too."

"Did you do it?"

"In the future, you can also become an elite among the ratmen, a rat hero remembered by more than just the Stoon ratmen!"

"what is that?"

"Still a rat man."

……

Late at night, Little Smalls watched Alvin and the Chipmunks return to the camp. He turned around and was surprised to find a figure standing under the magic street light not far away.

"Lord Annan?"

"Sorry, I overheard some of your concerns." Annan walked over. "Is that why you resigned as the commander of the Free Blade?"

"Um...sorry to disappoint you."

"Why are you disappointed? I fulfilled a young man's dream, I should be happy." Annan shook his head, "Set new goals for yourself."

"Target?"

“Why not let more people have peace, let all races live in peace, and let the world be free of war and fighting?”

Annan patted him on the shoulder. Then, little Smo heard a sentence that he would never forget.

"I helped you realize your dream, now it's your turn to realize mine."
