The baby looked cute.
Of course, Liszt knew that as an uncle, he needed to give a greeting gift, but he wasn't prepared at all. Although he had risen in power in recent years, his family wasn't rich. Giving an elf as a gift was even more inappropriate. Nobles didn't have the custom of giving elves to each other.
"Maybe I should give him a few books, my self-published personal works?"
He rejected the idea as soon as it appeared. If it was an adult, books would be fine, but giving a baby books would seem a bit perfunctory.
After thinking for a while, he took out a sapphire and stuffed it into the hands of the sleeping Richard.
Looking at Richard, he was actually speaking to Levis and his wife: "This sapphire is the gem embedded in my sword Sky Splitter. In the battle with Marquis Wildwave, the Sky Splitter was badly damaged and can no longer be used, but this sapphire is still intact. Richard, I give it to you. I hope you can become a powerful Knight like me! "
This was a good wish. The significance of the gem was great.
Nowadays, Liszt was the benchmark for Knight, enough to become Richard's life goal. This was not boasting, but a fact.
Levis and Rolia were obviously very satisfied with Liszt's gift: "Liszt, thank you for your blessing for Richard. We also hope that one day he can become a powerful Knight like you!"
If it was an ordinary person's blessing, it should be for Richard to one day be able to ride a dragon, but it was more like a courtesy.
The goal of riding a dragon was too inconceivable. Becoming a top powerhouse like Liszt should be the lifelong pursuit of all Knight.
Of course.
Levis and his wife still didn't know that Liszt was actually a 'Ghostblade'.
The news of the inheritance of the ancient warriors was only spread among a few great nobles. There was no need to tell too many people about it. In the era of Knight rule, the ancient warriors were doomed to decline. Even if they could still be passed down, the families that held the inheritance of the ancient warriors would keep the secret.
After giving the greeting gifts.
Liszt also received a gift. Unsurprisingly, it was a potted plant brought by Madam Penélope.
Using Magic Eyes to observe, the potted plant didn't have the slightest sign of magic, which made him feel relieved and a little disappointed. His appetite had long been spoiled by the sprite worm bred in the potted plant.
…
Basically, it was Liszt telling stories for the entire afternoon.
He had conquered the Snow Pear Castle, which was guarded by the Great Sorcerer. He had seized the Little River Heart Castle, which was guarded by the four bridges. He had resisted Marquis Wildwave, who possessed the Battle Aura Domain. He had taken down the White Deer Castle at lightning speed. He had opened up the golden waterway between the Roaring River and the Three Dragons River. Finally, he had taken down the iron mine at the Trapped Dragon Mountain.
Countless ships went upstream and downstream, loading the heavy iron ores and transporting them away.
Compared to the stuttering narration of the messenger Knight, Liszt, as the main character of the story, narrated it personally. It was a different kind of feeling, and it was intoxicating.
Especially the battle with Marquis Wildwave, which could be said to be second only to the Dragon Slaying Battle. For the Grand Duchy of Sapphire, it might not even happen once in a few decades — to be precise, it had never happened before. Without the inheritance of the ancient warriors, without the secret books of Combat Aura, they could only randomly grab some resources.
Before the banquet, Liszt took his family to see his elf again.
Today, he had a greater sprite – the Giant Algae Greater Sprite.
Fourteen lesser sprites – thorns, corn, three giant algae, wheat, sisal, pea green, corn, coptis, apple, turning white grass, pine, and tobacco lesser sprite.
A Qi's lesser sprite – the Mangrove Lesser sprite.
And Yevich's lesser sprites – the two Water Peanut Lesser sprites.
43 sprite worms – peanuts, alfalfa, two thorns, two Tulip, corn, two wheat, tomato, sweet coconut, two black nightshade, corn grass, three rubber, four snake blood fruits, apple, barley, fig, blackberry, pea, smoke grass, green tea tree, Venus flytrap, autumn eggplant, lamb's horn, green ingot, human skull, stone flower, eight giant algae, and seaweed sprite worm.
A Qi's sprite worms – kelp, seaweed, redstone flower, ponytail, and inkhorn sprite worm.
And Yevich's sprite worms – Hundred Clams erecta, sweet potato, celery, stipa, ryegrass, daisy, cat's tail, pennisetum, scattered sunflower, forsythia, two broom sprouts, stone lotus root, and green radish sprite worm.
The total was.
1 greater sprite, 17 lesser sprites, and 62 sprite worms.
Such a number had already surpassed that of the Tulip family in terms of lesser sprites. The greater sprites were equal, while the number of sprite worms was only half.
"I simply can't believe that your property is already richer than that of an ordinary count's family. Although the family has more sprite worms, but you have more lesser sprites!" Levis sighed with emotion. The Tulip family's sprites had all been contracted to him, but those given by his father and those earned by himself were two completely different feelings of accomplishment.
"Hehe."
Liszt said in a reserved manner: "After all, I am a child of glory, and the sprites favor me more. Moreover, if a few more expansion orders are issued, I am afraid that the castle's worm rooms will not be able to accommodate these beautiful sprites."
Levis wanted to refute – how could sprites be so easy to obtain?
But when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back down. For others, sprites were truly rare, but for Liszt, it seemed to be the opposite. This could be seen from Madam Penélope's potted plants alone. He and Lvera had brought back many potted plants, yet none of them had ever bred sprite worms.
Therefore, he could only force a smile: "I believe that such a day will come."
… …
The banquet was lively and festive.
After arranging the accommodations of his grandmother and the others, Liszt took a bath and lay back on his bed. His spirits from being flattered had yet to completely subside.
He recalled the two and a half years he had spent after transmigrating. Although he had not made any earth-shattering changes, he had also not been unknown and invisible.
At least in the Grand Duchy of Sapphire, which was a corner of the continent, he had repeatedly been in the limelight and had become a household name. After the iron mine robbery campaign was over, his name was bound to sweep through the various islands of the kingdom, and everyone from aristocrats to commoners would talk about his name.
Perhaps all the young Knight would also regard him as their goal, whether it be out of jealousy or worship.
"I really want to quickly succeed in riding a dragon … My handsomeness no longer allows me to be so low-key." He thought somewhat absent-mindedly. In this world, a Knight who was not a Dragon was, after all, an ant. Only by becoming a Dragon Knight would he be qualified to do as he pleased.
Slowly, an illusory smoke rose before his eyes.
Whenever he was absent-minded or focused, the smoke mission would naturally appear.
"Huh?"
His attention quickly returned, fixing on the changes in the smoke mission: "Mission completed. Reward: three Enchanting Dragon Spirit Fruits.
"The mission has been completed, which means that the Grand Duchy of Sapphire's expansion order has officially ended. Either Dragon Knight Alonso Cypher has rushed back, or the iron mine has been emptied … But what is this reward, three Enchanting Dragon Spirit Fruits that I have never heard of, could it be …"
