Chapter 24: Reunion of Siblings

One, two, three… Ten wagons in total reached the castle under the escort of a group of knights.

“My lord!” The knight in the lead approached Liszt and bowed. “I’ve escorted the convoy from Tulip Castle for business in Flower Town.”

“Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Lydon. Who are my visitors?” Liszt bowed back.

Lord Lydon replied, “The viscount and the Baroness of Falcon Town have both come.”

“Is that so? My sister is here.”

As they talked, a luxury wagon had climbed the slope and stopped before Liszt. The servant opened the door, and two young people in noble clothes got off.

The man looked somewhat similar to Liszt. They both had blond hair and sapphire eyes.

The woman also looked similar to Liszt. She was not wearing a lady’s dress, but the same clothes as the man. Her attire was similar to a tailcoat, but was more glamorous.

“My dear brother, Lord of Flower Town, look who’s here.” The man, Levis Tulip, smiled.

Liszt dismounted and walked to Levis. “Brother, I didn’t expect you to come in person. Also, how is your life in Falcon Town, sister?”

Lvera Tulip raised her eyebrow. “Liszt, I’ve sensed it. You are an earth knight now?”

“Yes, I made a breakthrough with luck, although it was a late one.”

“It seems that your potential is unleashed without the restraint of Tulip Castle. You became an earth knight, found a new tulip, and even had a peanut elvish insect… I’m getting jealous of your luck.” Levis patted Liszt’s shoulder with a smile.

The siblings were actually not very close.

Behind the warmth were mostly noble formalities. After all, all of them were real nobles.

At this moment, Liszt’s horse suddenly sniffed and roared at the horses that were pulling the wagons. The horses were almost scared off.

“Huh?”

Levis and Lvera finally noticed the shiny Black Dragon Horse.

Lvera’s eyes glittered. “What a great horse. Liszt, isn’t your mount our father’s birthday gift for you? Where did you get this horse? Can you give it to me?”

“I tamed it in Thorn Hill. I’m sorry, sister, but I don’t intend to sell it.”

“I’m not surprised to be rejected, but you did it quite quickly. Liszt, you’ve grown a lot.” Lvera was astonished. Liszt had always been timid before her when they were little.

“People change all the time.” Liszt waved at them. “The sun is dazzling out here. Please take a rest inside the castle. Mr. Carter must’ve prepared tea and cookies for you. We can chat there.”

“In that case, Mr. Lydon, bring the big elf and the little elves over.” Levis turned around.

Lydon went to the wagons and commanded the other knights to get three delicate boxes out of the carriages.

The boxes were not huge. In the largest box lay a beautiful creature the size of a baby. It looked like a human being, but it was transparent and glittered like a gem, with wings folded on its back. That was the tulip big elf, the ultimate treasure of the Tulips.

The other two smaller boxes had two little elves the size of feet. They were also beautiful, but they were not as attractive as the big elf.

The tulip big elf stretched out in the box and woke up, rubbing its eyes.

Flapping its wings, it flew out. It had no gender and was not wearing any clothes. Soon, it focused its eyes on Levis. “Levis, are we here? Where is the black tulip?” It talked like a sweet little girl.

“We’re here, Xiang Xiang. This is Flower Town. You will see the black tulip soon,” Levis responded.

The tulip big elf turned to Liszt. “Wow, Liszt, it’s been a while.”

Liszt smiled. “It’s been almost two months since we met, Xiang Xiang.”

The two tulip little elves also woke up and flew out of their boxes. They circled the big elf, creaking now and then. Little elves were intelligent, but could not talk.

He led the elves into the castle.

…

Inside the living room of the castle, those with titles were around the table, and those without titles were entertained by Marcus downstairs.

Liszt, Levis, Lvera, Goltai, Lydon, and Bruce, another knight with a title, were seated. Carter commanded the servants to serve tea and cookies.

Abby Spoon did her best and presented the delicious cookies.

The tulip big elf napped on Levis’s shoulder while shaking its plump feet. One of the little elves rested on Levis’s head, and the other crouched on Lvera’s shoulder. There were also a few other jade boxes that contained tulip elvish insects.

Liszt understood everything after seeing it. The earl has transferred the big elf and the little elves to Levis, or they wouldn’t be so close.

He was quite jealous.

Elves were always beautiful no matter how many times he had seen them. He was jealous that they belonged to someone else.

But it would happen sooner or later. Levis would be the next Earl of Coral Island after all.

“I didn’t expect the castle of Flower Town to be so shabby. Liszt, you should maintain it properly.” Levis observed the room with a teacup in hand.

The little castle was nothing more than a cottage compared to Tulip Castle.

“I want to do the same, but I don’t have money, workers or materials.”

“You didn’t ask for castle materials, though. There are food and seeds on the wagons. Our father gave you a lot of food after the separation. Why do you need so much more?”

“Flower Town is more desolate than I thought. I need to hoard food in case I’m starved someday.” Liszt offered an excuse.

Hoarding more food could never be wrong.

He could not develop Flower Town without solving the food problem.

“Alright, I think we can continue the boring topics during dinner. The most important thing is to meet the black tulip right now. My little elves can’t wait any longer.” Lvera interrupted them.

Liszt nodded. He did not want to pretend, either.

Levis and Lvera had few feelings for him, and they were no strangers to him, either. He said, “Since my sister is in a hurry, let’s go to the Flower Farm and assimilate the black tulip first.”
