Outside Coral City, in an independent castle.
"Madam, you look even younger than the last time I saw you." Gort praised exaggeratedly.
Madam Penélope replied happily: "No, I am old. I can hear Greg calling me from another world. I want to revisit Tahiti with him."
Greg Tiles, the count's father, Liszt's grandfather, Tahiti's viscount.
In his hands, the family had its first Tulip Lesser Sprite and began to collect different kinds of Tulip, thus cultivating even more Tulip sprites. The greater sprite Fragrant Fragrance was later cultivated, thus founding the Coral Island's Tulip family.
But in the end, Greg died on the battlefield.
The Tulip Lesser Sprite that he had contracted had also died.
Fortunately, he only contracted that Tulip Lesser Sprite as a souvenir. The other sprites were transferred to the adult Leewilliam, thus allowing the Tulip family to survive.
Just like now, Leewilliam had already transferred the sprites to Levis, while he himself was ready to sacrifice himself on the battlefield.
As a future count, Levis's participation on the battlefield was like gilding the plate. An aristocratic heir had to prove to the world that he was qualified to inherit the title. Otherwise, following a lord who could not see the light, the followers who thirsted for aristocratic glory were likely to lose their morale.
As a member of the Tulip Family and the contractor of all the Elves, his safety was definitely a priority.
Because once he died, the sprites and their worm stalks would also die. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, their vitality would be greatly damaged. Similarly, sprites could not repeatedly terminate their contracts and transfer them to others. Otherwise, their vitality would also be greatly damaged.
A sprite worm could only terminate its contract once in its lifetime.
In other words, it could only contract with two people.
A lesser sprite could only terminate its contract three times in its lifetime.
In other words, it could only contract with four people.
A greater sprite could only terminate its contract seven times in its lifetime.
In other words, it could only contract with eight people.
A dragon sprite … This information was not known to ordinary people, as it was monopolized by greater aristocrats.
Sprite worms had a lifespan of ten years, which was very suitable for being enfeoffed to their followers. Due to the increase in frequency, Little Sprites and Big Sprites were very suitable to be passed down in the family. However, they also had to save on contracts. Usually, the heirs would come of age and get their father's approval before they could pass it on.
Madam Penélope mentioned Greg, but Gort had never seen him before.
But he still went along with the topic and said, "I believe that although the old master misses you in the other world, he definitely hopes that you will continue to take care of the Tulip family's bloodline here and let it grow strong and healthy."
Speaking like this.
The old lady was very happy. "Yes, I must refuse him. I want to see the Count's four children grow up healthily. They are a group of worrying young people."
"In fact, you are too concerned about them, which is why you feel that they need to be worried. As members of the Tulip family's bloodline, every one of them is the cream of the crop among their peers!" Gort flattered him as if he didn't need money. "The same goes for Baron Liszt, whom I follow. The glory of the Knight always watches over him!"
Madam Penélope sighed with emotion. "Liszt is indeed a lucky young man. He has grown up."
"Lucky is not enough to describe Sir Baron. He has inherited Sir Count's excellent qualities and is destined to be an excellent and great lord. I came to see you today because Sir Baron entrusted me to invite you to the Flower Town's Sprite Birth Celebration to be held the day after tomorrow. "
"Sprite Birth Celebration?"
"Yes, a sprite. It is a thorn sprite that has evolved into a thorn sprite. It not only brings joy, but also endless wealth. We have the magic ingredient thorns and ironwood thorns. If you see it with your own eyes, you will definitely like this sprite. Its beauty can dazzle the eyes! "
Madam Penélope, who had experienced many ups and downs, was still shocked by this news. "Is this true, Gort? Liszt has his own sprite, and one that can cultivate magic ingredients and ironwood?"
"It's true!"
"What a pleasant surprise. He is indeed a boy of the Tulip family." Madam Penélope laughed. "I am starting to like Melissa a little. Her child has never let me down."
"Madam Melissa has brought the glory of the Taro family to Coral Island. Sir Baron has gathered the glory of two aristocratic families."
Gort was very good at the art of flattery. Besides, when dealing with an old lady, it was enough to just praise her grandchildren.
After chatting for half an hour, Gort took his leave.
His next stop was Tulip Castle. Here, his art of flattery did not get a chance to be displayed. After handing over Liszt's invitation to Madam Marie, he simply asked for the reason. The temporary owner of Tulip Castle smiled and saw him off.
There was no way to judge how she thought after hearing the news.
"No wonder she is the Countess. This bearing is hard for me to guess … The task given to me by Liszt cannot be completed." Gort shook his head and left Tulip Castle.
Liszt told him to take a good look at Madam Marie's expression after delivering the news.
Gort understood what Liszt wanted. However, the result was disappointing. Madam Marie did not show any surprise, shock, jealousy, or anger.
Fortunately, this task was just Liszt's bad taste.
It was not mandatory.
After a moment.
He appeared at the home of Levis's tutor, Frank. Both were tutors and were not unfamiliar with each other. However, in the past, Gort's status was much lower. He was just a tutor for the Baron in the countryside, while Frank was the tutor for the future Count.
But now it was different.
After explaining the purpose of his visit, he felt that Frank finally looked at him seriously, and his words were much more polite.
"Adviser Gort, please convey my greetings to Baron Liszt. On November 5th, I will take my wife and Shirley to the Flower Town's sprite birth celebration."
"Of course, on behalf of Sir Baron, I would like to express my gratitude for your coming."
"Then this noon, have a simple meal here. We haven't had a drink together for many years. I have a bottle of gin that I have treasured for many years. "
Tulip Castle did not have a free meal. Gort had planned to eat here, so he did not refuse. "Wow, gin, although I am in a hurry to go back and invite other aristocrats to the celebration. But my legs probably can't walk at the moment. Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Frank! "
At lunch.
The Frank family and Gort sat as guests and hosts.
At the table, the beautiful girl Shirley asked questions about Liszt from time to time. "Uncle Gort, did Baron Liszt give the thorn sprite a name?"
"It seems that not yet. Maybe at the celebration, he will announce the name of the thorn sprite."
"Can the Wind Peregrine Falcon he raised fly now?"
"Sorry, the Wind Peregrine Falcon has returned to the blue sky. Sir Baron is not willing to bind its proud heart."
Frank's wife was surprised. "A World of Warcraft, just let it go? Isn't it too wasteful? It's worth a lot of gold coins!"
