Chapter 24 (2/2)

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.”
