Alien world

Chapter 168 22. Respectively
In the afterglow of the evening, the snow-covered children went home with their parents grabbing their ears.

The King of the North, the Uncrowned King of the Town, the Champion of Hide-and-Seek, and the Snowball God's Chosen proudly set foot on his way back to the castle, but Blom not far away stopped him.

"Childish game..."

Annan, who restrained his smile, whispered hoarsely, and walked past Blom with his head slightly lowered.

Back at the castle, Annan straightened his black hair a little and asked the welcoming housekeeper, "Where are the eldest sister and the second sister?"

"In Miss Itilia's bedroom."

Annan asked Bloom to go back, first brought the water element back to the room, and released the low-level summoning to contact Breeze City.

According to Annan's request, the wheelchair was rushed out of the portal.Annan sat on it and experimented. The cashmere-covered cushion and hand guards brought warmth, and the solidified glue wrapped around the wooden wheels made the wheelchair not make any noise when moving.

In addition to the fairly satisfactory wheelchair, there is also a thousand gold coins.Annan asked the ogre to tell the craftsman to make another one, asked the water element to hold the wooden box containing the gold coins, and knocked on the door of the eldest sister's bedroom.

knock knock --

Footsteps sounded from far to near, and the door opened, leaving Annan with a figure running back into the room.They were watching "The Mage Tower Has Fallen."

"Huh? What is this?" Laila asked artificially, pointing at the wheelchair.

"My New Year's gift to my family and my eldest sister."

"What's the New Year's gift?"

"It's a gift to celebrate the new year."

Unexpectedly, the Saint Laurent calendar is almost 1000 years old, and the people here have never thought of celebrating.

Laila carried Etilia into the wheelchair and pushed her around the bedroom.

"Little brother, you did a good job with this." Leila raised her chin and pointed to the wooden box held by the water element, "Is that a gift for the family?"

"The one thousand gold coins here should be enough for the first year's expenses."

The family's only guards are roaming the territory of Osulonde, defending against bandits and aliens who invade and harass the territory.Annan had never even met.At this moment, the castle is empty, and if the town outside is attacked, the family can't even send support.

"You have spent 3000 gold coins for the family..."

Annan smiled gently: "We are family, and have you forgotten? This "Mage Tower Falls" has earned me tens of thousands of gold coins in Breeze City alone."

"Where's mine?" Leila broke the atmosphere of emotion and touched Annan's waist maliciously.

"You have already got it." Annan avoided sharply.

"It's your dear brother coming back itself."

"You mean the Philosopher's Stone?"

Annan and Leila said at the same time.

"That's not a gift!"

Laila rushed towards Annan, and Annan surrounded the water element to keep her away: "Then how about I become 'Jack' to date you?"

"nausea!"

After playing around, Annan talked about business: "I should go back."

Leila was stunned, and Etilia also frowned slightly: "You have only been back for two days."

"I have to return to Xingyue Bay before the second year..."

Annan talked about the territory, the construction of the town, the development of the port, the threat of Gema, and "The Fall of the Mage Tower" has already been screened in the city of Harvest and Betal...

Annan made many excuses and had to return to Xingyue Bay before the apocalypse forecast came.

"Then go back." Itilia was reluctant, but still said: "Annan now has his own territory."

But the eyes of the strong and jumping Laila were brewing mist.

"You can often come to Xingyue Bay as guests..."

Leila's sadness disappeared instantly: "Really!"

"Did I say something?" Annan regained consciousness and asked blankly.

"All right."

Itilia stopped them and told Annan: "Don't trust others, many nobles are waiting to see your jokes, and don't mind causing some trouble. Olmedo can be trusted, Augusta traded death for your bad faith disappear……"

"Great fatherly love."

But Leila said: "Beware of that bad woman, and be careful that Gema is also a bad woman."

"woman?"

"I went to the Diatra family when I was a child, and that Gema was a little girl."

Annan knew how to deal with this malicious neighbor.

"I'm going to prepare my luggage."

After Annan left, Laila seemed to remember something: "I seem to remember wrongly... Gema seems to be a boy..."

……

Two days at the Reeves family were short but wonderful.But like all wonderful dreams, it is time for Annan to wake up and face reality.

There is nothing left to tidy up.Annan checked a circle of knights and water elements, and went back to the room to rest.

knock knock --

In the morning with less than an hour before dawn, Annan was awakened by a knock on the door.

Itilia was sitting in a wheelchair outside the door, holding out her palm.Sleepy-eyed Annan thought for a while, then went back to the bedroom and picked up a Sorcerer's Stone and put it in the elder sister's palm.

Itilia put away the Philosopher's Stone helplessly, and reached out to Annan again: "Hold me up."

After a little hesitation, Annan went around to the side of the wheelchair, and hugged the doll-like girl with his arms through the nape of his neck and the bends of his legs.Big sister is lighter than expected.

"You should eat more."

"This is not your business." Itilia blushed slightly, "I will take you to the contract."

Annan's worries emerged and turned into hesitant determination: "Sister, my wealth in Breeze City is less than [-] gold coins, and "The Fall of the Mage Tower" will continue to create benefits. After my accident, you can take over Xingyue Bay, or you can take over with Di The Yatra deal sells it."

"What nonsense are you talking about."

Itilia patted Annan lightly, guiding him through the long spiral staircase and long corridor to the depths of the ground. A lava pool surging with viscous magma appeared in front of him, as well as an ancient contract floating on the magma.

This contract is the foundation of the Reeves family that is withering day by day, but still standing today.

Itilia wants to hand over the contract to Annan for safekeeping.

I didn't reveal myself.Annan thought about it, shook his head and said, "My elemental army can protect Xingyue Bay, the family and you need protection."

Itilia lowered her eyes slightly and said nothing.

Go back to the castle and put Itilia back in the wheelchair.The clouds outside the window are faintly bright.

"Be careful on the road, Laila is waiting for you in the living room."

Annan nodded, went back downstairs, and saw Leila falling asleep on the sofa by the fireplace.Picking up the blanket and covering her body, she came outside the gloomy and cold castle.

Facing Blom's eyes, they stepped into the carriage, and the team drove slowly across the suspension bridge.Annan raised his head at this moment, looking at the silhouette emerging from the bedroom window.

I don't know when I'll be back...

……

In the bedroom, illusory whispers floated in the room.

"I saw it, he was a good boy like Levi's."

"I know...but he's not..." Etilia in the wheelchair expressed sadness.

"Don't worry about that kid, he is alive and well, and he will become famous in other worlds."

"Your separation is only temporary."
