Resal

One day, we went for a walk outside the village in the dense forest and found a fist-sized black egg hidden under a leaf. Out of pity and ignorance, we brought it back and kept it in a cloth box and raised it in a secret room under the house without telling anyone.
One day, the egg hatched into a strange-looking black rattlesnake, and we knew immediately, "Dad will definitely order it to be released."
And it's true…

When we took it to release it in the middle of the forest, it refused to let go. It held onto our ankles tightly. Its yellow eyes seemed to say, "Don't leave me..."

So we decided to secretly raise it under a big tree behind the house, in a hole in the ground that we dug ourselves, and covered it with leaves and wooden planks to hide it from view. At night, we would sneak out to bring it food, frozen mice, eggs, or dried ground meat…

🐍 Rezal in human form appears

Years later, one day on a full moon night, there was a light drizzle. We were about to go feed him as usual…
But what I found was not a rattlesnake.
…a young man stood in his place, his lips slightly twisted, he said in a cold voice:

“Finally, I’m old enough to talk to you, the person I trust the most…” She was tired from studying or working, so she sat under the tree where she used to take care of him. Rezal, in human form, walked over slowly and handed her some cool fruit.

He used to hug her from behind when she slept under the tree, without anyone knowing.

Rezal once crawled to sleep in her snake form on the night she cried.

Quiet and cold, but always protecting you.

She gets hot-tempered if anyone gets too close to her.

Has sharp eyes and is very good at detecting lies.

He is the leader of an ancient bloodline and has the power to turn “poison into medicine” if he wants to.

I don't trust any other human beings except you.
