After a dozen days, Tal'an entered the hottest summer of the year, and the man Raymond sent to Corot to transport the saplings had finally returned.

Not only did they bring back all the plants that the spring had grown, but they also brought back a few people.

Izumi was pleasantly surprised when he saw them.

"Uncle Carter! Arthur and everyone, why are you here?! ”

Carter, Arthur, Benny, and Roger returned with the convoy, and even Nance, who was rarely seen, was among them.

"Koizumi, I miss you so much!" Although he was a little restrained after entering the castle, when he saw Izumi, Arthur happily stepped forward and hugged him, and then gestured, "I haven't seen you for a while, you have grown taller." ”

Izumi smiled back, "You've grown taller too." ”

The two friends talked happily for a while, and Quan Cai exchanged hugs with Carter again, and greeted the remaining three.

"Uncle, why are you here?"

"Your Majesty sent someone to pick us up." Carter explained.

Knowing that his youngest son was brought out of the Magic Forest, not to mention, he took care of him all the way and finally even helped him get a household registration, how could the Raymonds and his wife meet their youngest son's benefactors, and they also knew that Izumi had been thinking about these people, so they sent someone to bring all the puppets of the adventure team to Tal'an, and didn't tell Izumi in advance just to surprise him.

This arrangement really surprised Quan, and he thought about when he would be able to take the time to go back and see everyone, but he didn't expect that in the end, they would come to see him first.

"Your Royal Highness, please talk about something later, the two Majesties are still waiting to summon them." Raymond's personal assistant, Daniel, had to remind them when he saw that they were chatting happily.

"Is it okay for me to go with them to see Mom and Dad?" Izumi asked.

He said so, Daniel naturally would not refuse: "Of course you can, Your Highness is here, please." ”

On the way, Izumi asked everyone about the recent situation.

Arthur: "I'm still the same as before, I have to go to the teacher every day to study. Knowing that I was coming to Tal'an, the teacher asked me to say hello to you. ”

The Abel couple stayed with Corot to continue running their grocery store and lived as usual, while Carter's adventuring team, because they no longer had to worry about the spring, could go a little further and take on more difficult tasks. Because of this, Nance, who has not been active with them recently, has returned to the adventure team to work together.

The men sent by Raymond were lucky, as they arrived at Corot as the adventuring party was preparing to leave Corot on a mission, and if they were any too late, they would have missed it.

Not only Raymond and Miranda were waiting to meet them, but even Diego Eric and Angela were there, and the family was obviously waiting here to meet Carter.

Seeing that Izumi also came in, Anjieya immediately came to his side with her lily root doll, and after calling "brother", she quietly stopped talking.

The two brothers also nodded to him as a greeting.

I gave them a smile back, and Izumi's heart was as happy as if it had bloomed.

Seeing the emperor's family, Carter and the others were very reserved, they were originally just ordinary civilians, but now they had the opportunity to be received by the emperor and the empress, no matter how they thought about it, it didn't feel real.

But just like it happened, the highest couple in the empire not only received them and thanked them as Izumi's parents, but also had a very cordial and sincere attitude, without royal arrogance at all.

As for being regarded as a benefactor, Carter and others disagreed.

"Actually, Koizumi helped us a lot, and we didn't do anything for him." Carter shook his hand again and again, unable to bear this kindness, "Even without us, Izumi himself would have no problem leaving the Magic Forest." ”

"But without you, I'm afraid I'm afraid I wouldn't have come to Corot, and Electrolux wouldn't have discovered it." Miranda chuckled, her children are actually very easy-going, if it weren't for these people, Koizumi might have lived in the small town of Kabia for a while, and then went somewhere else, in that case, I'm afraid they would miss out again.

She looked at her child and beckoned to him, and Izumi obediently walked over and snuggled up to her mother, listening to her continue: "Besides, not everyone is as friendly as you, Izumi just came back then, right?" When you don't know anything about it, it's bad if you meet bad people. ”

In this world, there are good-hearted people, but there are never fewer bad people.

"So, please accept our kindness."

It is difficult to refuse a mother's request, especially if this mother has a beautiful and gentle appearance and a noble status.

The way the Raymonds wanted to repay them was by giving Carter Carter, who had adopted Spring, a knighthood, and giving him land and money.

A knight is a man who has made meritorious contributions on the battlefield or has been rewarded by the monarch for some special significance. This kind of title cannot be hereditary, not really noble, but it is a great honor for commoners.

Others, although they did not have titles, were rewarded with money and the like.

In addition, Arthur was recommended to study at the magic school in Tal'an, and all the tuition fees were paid by the royal family before he graduated, and although the four members of the adventure team were unable to go to the martial arts school because they were too old to study in the school, they also got the opportunity to teach martial arts privately.

If they accept the royal kindness, they are bound to stay in Tar'an for a long time, Carter and the others are okay, they stay in Tar'an to learn martial arts and improve their abilities much faster than they go out to wander around, how can there be no refusal.

But Arthur is different.

He has his own magic teacher, although the old magician seems to be unreliable, but his magic is strong, and he also teaches Ashur carefully, and Arthur is not very happy to let Arthur leave the teacher's teaching to study in the magic academy.

So after thinking about it, in the end, Arthur still rejected the kindness of the Raymonds.

Although he was a little surprised, he was unwilling, and Raymond and Miranda were not reluctant, but they just asked people to prepare some magic items that Arthur was suitable for use at this stage and gave them to him.

"Although you don't go to school here, you still have to stay for a long time, and I'll take you and everyone to have a good time in Tal'an." Izumi invited his little friend.

"Okay, I haven't been to Tal'an yet, so of course I have to have a good time."

It's not now to play, in order to send the saplings to Tar'an safely as soon as possible, everyone has been in a hurry these days, and now that they have finally arrived at the place, it is natural to have a good rest.

So Izumi made an appointment with them, and watched as the servants led them down to rest.

As soon as they left, Raymond got down to business.

"Those saplings and the flowers and plants you want have been delivered, how are you going to arrange them?"

They were all plants that he had never seen before, and Raymond was careful that his subordinates would not take good care of them, which would affect their growth, so he naturally had to ask the spring to see which manor he sent them to plant.

But Izumi felt that the place in the castle was big anyway, and there were only a few hundred of those tree fruits even if they had grown, so it was more convenient to choose a place in the courtyard to take care of them nearby, and there were many guards in the castle, so there was no need to worry about what would happen to the fruit and flowers.

"The first fruits that grow will continue to be planted as seeds, and it will be easier for me to cultivate them when the time comes."

Raymond thought about it for a moment and nodded: "Then you can choose a place in the courtyard by yourself." ”

"I'll go with my brother." An Jieya immediately said, because they all have to go to class, Izumi always runs to Nicol's laboratory, they have a lot less time to get along these days, it is rare not to study today, Anjieya naturally wants to follow Quan.

Izumi smiled and took his sister's hand to say goodbye to his parents and brother, planning to go and see the plants that had been sent to him first.

"Brother, can you help me take a look at the doll?" Angela held up the lily doll in her arms to him, "It dropped a leaf today and spit out a few seeds, which startled me. ”

"I'll see." Izumi took the lily doll from his arms, and the latter obediently let him examine it.

The lily root doll, which was born for more than ten days, has grown a lot taller and heavier than it was at the beginning, and it does have one less leaf on its head, but the remaining leaves are healthy, and new young leaves are growing where the leaves have been dropped.

"Can the doll spit out seeds? Can you show me? ”

The lily root doll laughed and called "doll", and then the leaves on her head lit up, and two seeds appeared out of thin air.

The seed sprouted when it fell to the ground, and vines grew out of it and wrapped around Izumi's legs, but it didn't take long for them to disappear again.

An Jieya looked worried: "It was like this before, brother, is the doll sick?" ”

"No, your doll just grows up and starts using tricks." Izumi smiled, "It will drop leaves just like plants will drop leaves, it is to throw away the old leaves to facilitate the growth of new ones, as for that seed, it is its trick, called 'parasitic seed' After your doll is familiar with it, this parasitic seed can entangle the target and make the other party completely unable to move, which is a very good skill." ”

Parasitic seeds are a skill that can be learned when the lily root doll is at level eight, but I didn't expect it to be able to use it after such a short time, and the growth rate is fast enough.

An Jieya patted her little chest: "It's okay." ”

She doesn't know much about what skills are not skills, she just needs to know that everything is fine with the lily root doll.

"Well, it's growing up well." Izumi returned the lily root doll to his sister and instructed, "In the future, if it drops its leaves again, you can put the leaves away, it is a good medicinal herb that can make people energetic." ”

An Jieya kissed her lily root doll, rubbed it face to face again, and said to Quan: "I have put away the leaf that fell before, and I will take it to my brother later." ”
