The day she turned thirteen felt a lot like the day she turned seven. Which is to say it was filled with bureaucracy. The day before was also filled with a numbing amount of travel. While Elua herself was *technically* unused to railway transport, as it was the first time she had been on a train in this life, the reborn cultivator had used it in a few variations throughout her last.
'She's too far. She should have come with me. I should have stuffed her in my luggage. I should have brought luggage to stuff her in. I should have-'
The brunette cared a lot less about it being the 'first time' out of the city she grew up in. What 'numbed' her was the fact that she was 'willingly' traveling *away* from her fiance! It was just too awful that the Coiled Serpent had no branch office to do her training in.
So, who expected her to stick to Qat like a barnacle to a ship instead of being willing to leave for even a little while? I know I did!
But despite everything that implies or almost directly shows otherwise, she is quite patient~
Also her actions almost always are part of evolving plans that reach a little farther than her current needs and wants. Which... isn't to say they are good, strong plans. The schemer does go with the flow and ignores more than she probably should because of her lack of interest in many things.
I'm worried how very flawed my own MC is. At least there is plot armor to rely on, right?
