After a fierce battle, the knights received a warm welcome when they returned. The caravan bosses brought out food and wine to entertain the two knight teams.
“How was the harvest, Lord Karis?” Russell asked with a smile.
“Two ice soul beads!” Knight Commander Karis grinned, “My luck is much better than Sir Stephen.”
Russell smiled and said: “Congratulations!”
In fact, he felt a little sour in his heart. When there were three snow demons in front of him, he chose the most powerful one and let the little dream dragon devour it. In the end, there was only one ice soul bead. Unexpectedly, it was the shortest snow demon who was the most frustrated, with two ice soul beads.
Blood loss! However, this was also the result of Karis’s bloody battle. Russell did not show any greed and just sincerely congratulated the other party.
“Thank you!” Knight Commander Caris replied. He was not yet a lord, and needed the Ice Soul Bead for his military exploits.
Then he said: “The caravan has set up supper. Mr. Russell, let’s have a drink together.”
“No, they are entertaining the knights fighting the Snow Demon. I watched the whole process, but I didn’t exert any effort.” Russell declined politely.
Go to sleep in the tent.
But before going to bed, he couldn’t help but mutter: “Actually, I am the most effective guardian. I teamed up with Xiao Menglong, but we eliminated one or two hundred green-skinned ones, and one blue-skinned one… forget it, keep a low profile.”
The way the fluorescent mushroom family survives is to keep a low profile.
Russell failed to inherit this in appearance, but in action, he was definitely better than his predecessor.
……
On October 15th, the sun was shining brightly.
You can’t feel the warmth of the sun on the snowfield, but you step from the snowfield into the cave, pass through the cave, and then step onto the soil of the Youguang River Valley.
The warmth of the sun can be clearly felt from every pore – this is the hottest summer season of the year.
“It must be more than 20 degrees.”
Russell took off his dark gold ceramic armor and put on a set of light clothes. Before he rode into Gale Manor, he felt hot sweat on his head.
His arrival had already been reported to the lord of Gale Manor, Russell’s uncle, Rosen Fluorescent Mushroom.
So soon, Uncle Rosen took his family to greet Russell at the door of the small castle.
Grandmother Mrs. Ingrid, who lives in Gale Manor, also stood with her uncle Rosen’s family, watching Russell’s arrival with a smile.
“grandmother!”
“Little will-o’-the-wisp, you are finally willing to come back!” Mrs. Ingrid hugged Russell gently, “I have heard from your father that you, the little will-o’-the-wisp, went to the mouth of the Sancha River and asked the old earl to give away all the family property. “Took it out.”
“It’s grandpa’s love.” Russell smiled.
Then he hugged Uncle Rosen and Aunt Clara in turn, and then looked at the two children, one tall and one short.
The tall man is Rosen’s eldest son, Russell’s eldest cousin Royal, and the short man is Rosen’s younger son, Royle.
“I brought gifts for you.” Russell waved, “Ram, give gifts to Royal and Royle.”
Then he introduced: “This is Knight Commander Caris, he escorted me all the way back.”
After giving the gift and completing the introduction, Russell had no intention of stopping at Gale Manor because he had to rush to Fluorescent Castle for lunch.
“Sir Karis, let’s go to the Fluorescent Castle together.”
“No need, Sir Russell, the knights and I will take a rest at Gale Manor before returning to the mouth of the Sancha River.” Knight Commander Caris declined politely.
Uncle Rosen also said: “I will entertain Mr. Karis well. We have been an old friend for more than ten years. Russell, don’t worry and go to the Fluorescent Castle.”
When Russell saw this, he didn’t force it.
After bidding farewell to his grandmother and uncle’s family, he took Ram and two coachmen and headed to the Fluorescent Castle alone.
Before noon, we successfully arrived at the place where we grew up.
“Master Russell, welcome home!” The guard at the castle arch bowed to let Russell pass after seeing him.
“It’s good to be back safely.” After seeing Russell, Mrs. Meryl finally let go of her hanging heart.
“Where’s eldest brother?”
“Your eldest brother set off for the Red Keep to work for the Grand Duke.”
“I see.” After Russell hugged his mother, he looked at Baron Roman with a smile, “Father, I’m back.”
“Fortunately, I didn’t linger on Sancha River Estuary.” Baron Roman joked casually, “I’m really worried that you will stay at Sancha River Estuary, become a vassal for your grandpa, and cause harm to the territory with this guy Mel.”
“How could that be?” Russell laughed.
Then he rubbed Laura’s hair again and said hello to his sister.
Laura was so angry that she shouted: “Damn it, Russell, don’t mess with my hair anymore, I’m already angry!”
“What if I give you a gift?”
Laura suddenly lost her temper: “What gift is it?”
“Open it and see for yourself.” Russell motioned to the valet and brought the gift to Laura. It was not a valuable thing, just a set of hand-sewn rag dolls.
Although it is not valuable, girls of this age do not value money themselves.
Sure enough, when she opened the gift and saw the beautiful rag doll, Laura smiled brightly, and her plain face became much more vivid.
After a while.
In the restaurant, the family was having lunch happily.
Russell ate the food without looking like he was eating it. The trip to the snowfield these past few days had left him ravenous.
Seeing her son eating well, Mrs. Meryl became increasingly happy, but she still couldn’t help but ask: “You have been living at grandpa’s house during this period. Didn’t you learn bad things from Mel? Can you tell me everything?” I.”
“Mother, if you can’t trust Cousin Mel, you have to trust me.” Russell raised his head, “I didn’t do anything!”
“real?”
“Absolutely true.”
“Okay, mother believes in you.” Mrs. Meryl smiled.
Baron Roman asked: “Then what have you and Mel done this month? Don’t tell me that you just traveled around…Although Mel has a good temper, his style is not better than your elder brother. Where to go.”
It must be said that Baron Roman knew Roland and Mel very well.
Russell said casually: “Cousin Mel introduced me to many famous ladies. Although they are very enthusiastic, I don’t want to be kidnapped by marriage so quickly, so I keep a certain distance from them.”
“Hmm.” Baron Roman was noncommittal.
Mrs. Meryl said matter-of-factly: “You can’t even look down on Malena. You are really setting your sights too high. I observed you carefully at your grandpa’s birthday party. Indeed, there is no famous lady who is better than Malena.”
Seeing that his mother brought up old things again and asked him to pursue Malena, Russell quickly changed the subject: “Father, mother, I got a big opportunity at the mouth of the Sancha River this time, and my strength has improved by leaps and bounds!”
“Oh, what kind of opportunity is it?” Baron Roman was intrigued by Russell.
Mrs. Meryl also put aside Malena and looked at Russell with concern. No mother does not value the strength of her son.
“A mouthful of original dragon breath.” Russell smiled.
As soon as these words came out, Baron Roman and his wife were both surprised: “What?”
“A breath of original dragon’s breath, a breath of original dragon’s breath given to me by His Excellency Medikalen.” In fact, Russell got this opportunity long before Baron Roman and his wife left Blue Bird Castle, but Russell did not report it to his parents.
Save the surprise for today.
