Devil's Planet, Devil Empire Capital, Heaven Company, 14:00 p.m.
Once upon a time, there was a greenish bamboo woods located in green mountain, neighbored with an ancient town, there dwelled a beautiful and brilliant snake lady, who held with longing for human world, learned human language from private school, and entered the ancient town in human's form.
This story began in the first day when she entered the ancient town in human's form. What's this snake lady's character would be left to find down.
Year 422, Snake People City, Ancient Town
It was with longing for human world, that Shelby cultivated into human's form, walked out greenish bamboo woods, and walked in this human world full of opportunities and temptations. It's rumored that human world was full of opportunities and temptations, where people could find down everything they desired.
Some people desired for wealth, because money wasn't almighty, but money could solve 90% of troubles in this material world. Some people desired for power, because the rest 10% of troubles couldn't be solved by money, but it could be solved by power. Some people desired for fame, because those people with fame could easily make money, or easily walk toward the throne of power.
Wealth, power and fame that billions of people desired for, except for a snake lady. Shelby regarded wealth as floating clouds, it came and went with wind in daily dome. She regarded power as a throne, it laid at the edge of cliff. She regarded fame as a camera, it supervised her in the public and in her daily life.
What she admired most to this human world was people's mercy, kindness and love. She was gonna visit a restaurant in the first day, to taste the local classic tasty diets. She was gonna visit a church in the next day, to pray for blessing from the Goddess of Darkness Morgana. She was gonna visit the place where people often visited in the third day, to feel the coldness and warmth of human relationship.
However, there came a heavy rain suddenly, it changed her plan, and also brought her an encounter with her future partner. She was at the middle of stone bridge, looking through misty rain gauze toward rolling river. She saw rolling river was like a canvas, and someone saw she was like a fairy in canvas.
"Hello! This is Salem! May I have an honor to watch tide with you?"
Salem said in a tone of politeness, holding on one umbrella above both heads with gentlemanlike manners. He saw she was at the middle of stone bridge, watching tide with a special temperament. He was pulled to her by her special temperament, and his right hand held on one umbrella above both heads in the rain.
"Of course! Thank you for your umbrella. How many things that happened in the past and in the present, all are like rolling water, it's always moving on, toward its destination full of hope. Do you know where is the destination of this rolling river?"
Shelby thanked him for his umbrella, and inquired the destination of this rolling river. How many things that happened in the past and in the present, all are like rolling river, it's always moving on, toward its destination full of hope. She compared everything to rolling water, and wondered where is the destination of this rolling river.
"You must be a traveler from another town. It's well-known that this rolling river called Cold River, it circled around this ancient town, merging into West Lake. If you are a traveler, you shall not miss West Lake, It's well-known that West Lake is like a beauty, she is always beautiful, whether she wears light makeup or she wears heavy makeup."
Salem said in a tone of gentleness, and introduced Cold River and West Lake to her. It's well-known that this rolling river called Cold River, it circled around this ancient town, merging into West Lake. It's well-known that West Lake is like a beauty, she is always beautiful, whether she wears light makeup or she wears heavy makeup.
"West Lake must be beautiful and grand. How could I miss my opportunity to explore West Lake in the rain? Do you know how can I get there?"
Shelby said with longing for exploring West Lake, and intended to explore West Lake in the rain. Maybe one century ago, there's a scholar, who passed through West Lake, and left a poem. She wondered someone compared West Lake to a beauty, and if West Lake was like a beauty, who could impress everybody.
"We can rent a boat, sail along this rolling river, and arrive its destination, West Lake. May I have an honor to take the same boat with you?"
Salem said in a tone of politeness, and inquired if he could have an horror to take the same boat with her. He saw she was at the middle of stone bridge, facing upon rolling river like a fairy in canvas. He knew he loved her, since the first sight he saw her, or even he has loved her, before he saw her.
"Of course! How could I miss my opportunity to travel with a local guide?"
Shelby agreed with him, and changed her schedule from traveling alone to traveling with a local guide. She was gonna travel this ancient town, to eat, to pray, and to feel the coldness and warmth of human relationship. This heavy rain changed her plan, and also brought her a companion, who held on one umbrella above both heads.
One umbrella above both heads, it was like a stone bridge across Cold River, like a spiritual bridge connected with both hearts. There's a stone bridge across Cold River, and there's also a spiritual bridge between both hearts of Shelby and Salem. It's built, when Salem came to Shelby, holding on one umbrella above both heads.
One boat carried with both figures, it was like a beautiful canvas. Shelby and Salem were at the same boat, drifting along Cold River toward West Lake, with the views of landscapes along both shores. Shelby was in front of a gentleman, admiring landscape along both shores, and Salem was in front of a lady, admiring this beauty.
