In the Harris Manor, Alan sat on the toilet. He felt that he had lost a lot of weight, so he let out a sigh of relief. He straightened his back and let the right half of his butt move away, leaving a space for him to cast spells.
Then, just as he got up and put down the robe, Allen turned his eyes and thought of his daughter who had just come back and looked out the window outside. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a bottle of hazelnut jam.
Allen weighed it in his hand, then opened the toilet door a little and shouted, "Helena … Help me, bring me a roll of tissue."
Helena heard her father's voice and walked to the toilet door. She suddenly realized that her father, who usually used magic to clean up, was using the same old trick to tease her this time.
"Father! Use the Flying Spell or let Maggie get it … I won't be fooled a third time! " The ghost complained unhappily. Thinking of the experience of being fooled by the same trick, her face turned colder.
The door was opened. Seeing that his daughter was not fooled, Allen walked out and touched his chin. "Helena, do you want to watch a movie with me?"
"No." Helena refused without thinking. "You want to trick me into watching a horror movie again. And father, aren't you going to meet Prime Minister Muggle?"
"Long Eyes is helping me. I still have some time …" Allen shrugged bitterly. "Helena, it's getting harder to fool you."
"If grandma knows, someone will definitely be beaten …" Seeing that her father seemed a little disappointed, Helena softened her tone a little. "Father, I found something that you will be interested in …"
Sensing that his daughter was worried about him, Allen was in a better mood. "You just saw it from the window? What's that outside? "
Helena waved at Allen and signaled him to follow her. She floated gently to the window.
Allen also flew and floated behind Helena. The father and daughter walked to an arc-shaped window. Under the cover of the curtain, they secretly poked their heads out to look at the back garden.
With the help of magic, all kinds of flowers from all over the world were blooming in Harris' back garden. Water lilies, roses, and lilies were all smiling.
But the most eye-catching thing was Lunn, who was surrounded by flowers, and his two French cousins with bright smiles. Lunn said something, and the girl with big light blue eyes pressed her chest happily. The other girl with long hair in the middle and a flower wreath on her head was so amused that she covered her mouth.
After living as a ghost for thousands of years, Helena had the habit of quietly using her advantage to inquire about interesting news.... She whispered in her father's ear, "I've secretly seen Uncle Lunn bring these two cousins when you're at work.........
"Lunn is enlightened?!!!" The scene surprised Allen. "I remember there are three of them."
"Because Aunt Eva is already in love with Mr. Fritz Barsa …" Helena turned her head and looked around. After making sure that there were no outsiders, she lowered her voice a little and said in a sneaky manner, "Father, I've also secretly followed the two of them several times … They're progressing much faster than Uncle Lune …"
"Viktor? That guy is so fast??? " Allen's two white eyebrows jumped in surprise. "Well, but Lunn found two at once... uh..." He felt that he should not show his envy in front of his daughter. "Helena, you can follow Uncle Lunn when you're free. Your grandmother will be very happy if she knows."
"The two aunts came to the university to study. They're living in the house of Mr. Dracul, the father of Aunt Hibiscus Chinensis." Helena continued to look out of the window with great interest. Obviously, as a curious ghost, she had already found out about this matter.
Her appearance made Allen realize that his daughter was lacking in her growth. He raised his hand and stroked his daughter's long hair. Then, he said softly, "Oh, that's right. Helena, the gift I mentioned before... is almost ready. I'll bring it over for you now."
Helena was a little surprised. Previously, on Christmas Eve, her father said that he was going to pick up the gift, but after returning, he did not say a word. Helena thought that something unexpected had happened, so she did not ask. However, she did not expect that it sounded like he still needed some time to prepare.
"The gift is with Maggie these days. I asked her to help me take care of and train some basic things. You know she's a little rebellious and a little unwilling. But I think she's starting to accept the reality now." Allen lowered the curtain.
Helena was a little surprised. "Training? Father, what kind of pet are you going to give me? Raven? "
"Uh … pet? Servant? Anyway, it should be something you like. You'll know later. " Allen smiled, then glanced at Lunn and the two beauties who were close to each other. He looked away and met Helena's eyes.
After a short silence, Helena nodded to her father excitedly. Allen understood and shouted out of the window, "Hey! Lunn! Cousins! Do you want to stay for dinner tonight?!!! "
Lunn and the beauties, who thought there was no one around, jumped away as if they were hit by lightning magic.
"Allen? Aren't you picking up … uh, no need! We'll leave right away! " Lunn came back to her senses and looked at the window. Then, she angrily pulled the two beauties and fled to another location.
Allen, who succeeded in his prank, laughed and slipped into the shadows.
Helena, who was in a good mood because her prank succeeded in interrupting her uncle's business, turned around and floated in a few circles. Not long after, Allen came out of the shadows next to the curtain. A gift box almost as tall as him floated behind him.
Allen directed the gift box with a big bow to land in front of Helena. "Open it, Helena. I hope this gift will bring more joy to your life."
"So big? Father … it won't bite, right? " Helena was surprised and scared by the size of the gift. She didn't like animals that were too big since she was a child. She felt that if they attacked people, it would be difficult to deal with them. Although she was no longer hurt by such physical attacks.
"It shouldn't? Uh … "Allen didn't know what to do with his daughter's timidity." Don't worry, I mean this is something that won't touch you, even if you materialize … "
Helena looked at Allen distrustfully. Then, she looked down at the box that was shorter than her. After pondering for a while, she raised her arm gracefully and tore open the large blue ribbon wrapped around the box. The outermost box bloomed like a flower petal, and then revealed the smaller box inside.
"I knew it …" Helena looked down at her immature father with a helpless gaze. Although she didn't need to breathe, she still sighed and continued to unwrap the box expressionlessly. Her elegant movements were like a dance. The big box fell to the ground with a bang, and then a smaller box … Boom … Another box … Helena unwrapped the box faster and faster. The paper on the ground piled up more and more, and the blue ribbons intertwined messily.
Finally, a bronze oil lamp stood in the center of the paper case.
"It's just like in the story. Rub it three times, and the gift for you will appear," Allen said encouragingly.
Helena had no choice but to bend down. She held the bronze oil lamp and shook it gently. There was no sound. She pinched the corner of the curtain with her slender white fingers and rubbed it against the oil lamp.
A pearl-white translucent thing jumped out of the bottle, and the ghost, who was completely transparent and wearing the butler's uniform that Allen had given him earlier, appeared.
The handsome ghost's expression began to distort, but he quickly suppressed it and returned to a polite look. He bowed to the female ghost who jumped back in shock. "Helena, long time no see … I'm Tom …"
