Chapter 12: New Friends
Many years later, Ellen was asked why he and Thorpe became friends, and Alan replied that he was an upright, brave, and responsible man!
Many years later, Thorpe was asked why he became friends with Prince Allen, and Thorpe replied that he was a man of high character and good heart!
However, if someone were to ask Alan this question right now, Alan would definitely say it, because he talks a lot!
If someone asked Thorpe right now, Thorpe would say because he was so good-looking!
In short, since his rebirth, there are no peers who can speak, and it is the first time that Alan has met such a healthy and talkative person, and he thinks it is very rare.
And Thorpe, who is at the age of the beginning of love (fog), thinks—my god of light! His eyes are more beautiful than emeralds!
Honey, you can't finish talking, you have to leave some time for your friends to introduce yourself. The boy's mother gently but resolutely interrupted her forehand dance to demonstrate the son of the Sandstorm in the Third Sector.
Catherine watched silently for a while, and had a particularly good impression of the teenager she had met for the first time.
No matter how many of Thorpe's words were tossed and turned, there was always sincerity and respect in the boy's eyes, and a hint of kindness that was intimate.
It was as if Thorpe wasn't talking about a trivial matter they had come all the way from the Third Sector, but a gorgeous and exciting adventure, and he had been listening without the slightest impatience.
Interrupted by his mother, Thorpe didn't feel angry or embarrassed, he grinned and smirked, yes, I only know that your name is Alan, are you a local?
After Alan nodded, Thorpe said excitedly, that's great, you can be our tour guide! The tall boy smiled so brightly that he couldn't bear to refuse.
But before Alan agreed, the other party seemed to think of something again and became a little frustrated, but if my genetic judgment result is not high, I have to go back to the third star area immediately, I don't know if there is a chance to play with you again.
Thorpe was a small side branch of the MacAdam family, a nobleman of the Emperor.
Although they have the same surname, the difference is huge. One is still a famous nobleman, and the other is only a noble surname, and other than that, he is no different from a commoner.
Due to a heritable genetic defect in the current patriarch of the MacAdam family, his brother was anxious to pass on his son, but he refused on the grounds that he was not talented.
But it's not a way to go on like this, after all, the heir doesn't fall from the sky, it takes time to cultivate. So the elders of the clan raised yì and took all the school-age children of the side branches to the first star area, and selected the best of them to stay and cultivate.
Thorpe's mother had traveled all the way to Emperor Star with him in the hope that he could stay here and get the best resources.
However, the reality is brutal.
When they came to the Emperor Star, they found that the patriarch Adrien was not interested in the heir at all, he just didn't want to pass the stepbrother's son too early, so as not to lose his rights, so when the clan elder said that the children of the side branch were chosen, he felt that it was a way to delay time, so he agreed.
As for his brothers, who are still eyeing the leadership of the family, how can they give these "hillbillies" who have a competitive relationship a good look. If it weren't for the fact that the children from the side branches were not very qualified, they even planned to do something to eliminate the hidden dangers first.
Catherine is a very wise woman, she actually doesn't want Thorpe to really become the so-called heir, she just hopes that her son can get a good education and good opportunities.
So she kept a low profile, and privately promised Adrien's wife Enid that if Thorpe's gene level was high, staying in Emperor Star would definitely become her uncle's right-hand man. As a result, she was promised verbally that Adrien would take Thorpe under her command and ensure the safety of their mother and son.
But this qiē is based on Thorpe's genetic judgment - Adrien would not invest in a distant nephew with mediocre qualifications.
As Thorpe's coming of age drew nearer, Catherine brought him to Abuna to pray to the god of light and to find a few mioko fruits. McAdam's estate had no nearby public tracks, so they had to take this private flying machine and make a stop.
Looking at the big boy who was a little frustrated, Alan patted him on the shoulder and comforted, You're absolutely fine.
Maybe it was Allen's sincere and firm tone that gave the boy a lot of encouragement, and Thorpe immediately became energetic, then we said okay, if I can stay in the Emperor Star, you will definitely come to play with me!
Catherine looked at Allen with some surprise. This child looks much thinner than Thorpe, but his heart seems to be very tough, and even with what he says, people can't help but trust a little - is this the child who grew up in the Emperor Star?
If Alan could hear Catherine's heart, she would be embarrassed.
- Ma'am, you have won the prize, and I know that your son is absolutely fine, purely because of ...... His lion has been rubbing against my lap for a long time, hey!
As the system was upgraded, so did Eren's two skills.
Specifically, the maturation cycle of plants in the planting space is all shortened by six hours, and Alan can see more people's special states of mental power through guò "seeing souls".
He can even judge the other party's attitude towards him from the appearance of these "souls".
For example, Patvey's wolf has always been dismissive of him, occasionally attacking when he gets close, while Elena's wolf has always been calmer, just from a distance, quietly observing his every move with cold green eyes.
However, Alan also found that although his skills have improved, there will still be situations that he can't see.
He guessed that this was probably because people with high levels of mental power also had a relatively strong control over their spiritual power, and if the other party did not have particularly obvious fluctuations in spiritual power, the "soul" would be hidden, and it would not be like Patvi and Elena.
For example, the "soul" of the High Priest of Elijah, Alan could not see it at all.
Although Thorpe has a tendency to become a beast of spiritual power, he obviously does not belong to the level that can skillfully manipulate mental power, so Alan can see it very clearly.
His "soul" is a lion, according to Thorpe's actual age, he should be close to adulthood, with a bit of a majestic and domineering prototype, but according to Allen's standards, it is still a large hairball overall.
From the moment they started talking, the big guy was wagging his tail next to him, and he tentatively approached Allen's side, and finally he was close to Allen's legs, rubbing happily.
Alan desperately controlled his eyes and hands - Tian Aru, what a handsome lion! I know it's not true, but I really want to touch it!
At the same time in the Selentu Palace, Beckwell the Great, who was on official duty, went to his youngest son's bedroom to see (disturb) him.
Vincent, my little darling, you look fantastic! He tied a pink bow tie around his son's neck, causing him to play with it impatiently.
Your Majesty, wouldn't His Royal Highness Vincent feel uncomfortable wearing this? Amanda stood aside in embarrassment.
How come?! A gentleman is to lead the knot! He grabbed his son's little paw in his hand and forbade him to move, and your Alan will love it too, trust me!
Allan? Like!
The little guy tilted his head, wondering how reliable Beckwell the Great's words were.
