"Alright, don't make any fuss. Weimar gently pulled Luna into his arms, "Let's get down to business." Now that you've decided to meet, what do you think? Tell me about it, and Dad will refer to it for you. ”

"Well, I haven't figured it out yet. Luna frowned a little when she talked about this: "I don't have any good gifts, so I'm embarrassed to meet." ”

"That's right. Weimar nodded: "It's too rude to leave empty-handed." Have you figured out what you want? Dad, maybe you can think of a way. ”

"It's amazing. Daddy is the best. Luna hung around her father's neck like a koala and winked playfully, "I want to give something special, something I can't find anywhere else." ”

"Okay, you name it, Dad will try to be satisfied. Weima was smiling on his face, but he was worried in his heart. It's a problem to survive the winter now, and if Luna is too demanding, it will be a big problem.

"Tulips, I want some beautiful tulips. ”

Tulips are a very popular flower among the nobility of the royal capital, with beautiful leaves and dignified flowers, and are regarded as a symbol of victory and beauty.

However, tulips bloom from the sunset moon (March) to the blooming moon (May), and now it is the end of the harvest month (September), and even in the royal capital, you can not find tulips in full bloom.

Weima thought she was playing tricks, and laughed: "You stumped Dad." ”

"Luna, you're not a fool. Tim looked disdainful, "It's harvest moon, where are the tulips?" ”

"I said yes, yes!" Luna puffed out her chest, "Tim, do you dare to bet it?"

"Bet on it!" Tim nodded angrily, "Tulips of the Harvest Moon, are you kidding me?"

"Dad and Kayce testified. Luna's eyes were full of smugness, and she chuckled twice before leaning into Weimar's ear and whispering a few words.

"Seeds?" Weima looked confused, and then slowly unfolded: "Cais, I remember that there is a shipment in the summer, and there are some tulip seeds, you go and look for them." Now, it seems to be the season to plant tulips. ”

"Are you sure it's a seed?" Kayce was full of curiosity: "I know there, I counted the winter grain a few days ago, and I specially found it, so I'll go." ”

Caice left in a hurry, and Tim looked a little dazed, and suddenly had a bad premonition: "Daddy, seeds don't count, do they? You have to bear witness to the kind of tulips that bloom." ”

The moleskin gloves were beautifully crafted and warm, and had been sewn by his mother for Tim's 10th birthday. After a heavy snowfall in the cold winter, she often took it to snowball fights, and Luna coveted it for a long time.

"Tim, you're lost!" Luna's conspiracy triumphed, "In front of the brave who values both beauty and intelligence, your tiny ant-like wisdom is exposed." ”

"Bragging!" Tim was a bit of a man, obviously lacking in confidence.

Soon, Kayce returned to the room with the cloth bag and poured the brown tulip seeds on the ground: "It was not ventilated in time, it was a little damp, and I don't know if it was still useful." Luna, you want the seed. ”

"Thanks, Cais. Luna twisted a flat tulip seed from the ground, a sacred expression on her face, and whispered, "Witness the miracles of nature!"

In the palm of her hand, the green light lingered, gradually condensing into a petite and cute plump elf, happily circling Luna twice.

Weima's expression was focused, and Kayce was expectant, except for Tim's eyes flustered, worried about his beloved moleskin gloves.

"Ceciris, let the ignorant mortals witness the power of the supernatural. Luna's mouth was full of words, and the Rich Elf received the command to circle around the tulip seeds, and their hands and feet danced merrily, a symbol of the power of life, gradually merging into the seeds.

Then, something shocking happened, the shell of the seed slowly expanded and cracked, poking out small shoots that seemed to come alive, extending upwards and upwards, and then deepening in color and turning into turquoise stalks, the roots grasping at Luna's hands, and the stalks began to pull out tiny leaves, which swirled and unfolded upwards.

Until the length of the forearm, the top bears a full bud, and in front of everyone's eyes, it wakes up and blooms orange-red petals, which slowly converge together, like an inverted wine glass.

The flowers are bright, the flowers are full, and there is a faint fragrance of flowers in the air.

Marvel!

Weima's eyes widened, and in just a few breaths, he witnessed the whole process of tulips from seed to flower. Under normal circumstances, this would take half a year!

"Magic! unbelievable!"

"My gloves ......," Tim was about to cry.

"Daddy, how about my gift?" Luna triumphantly admired the delicate tulips in her hand, and the plump elf flapped its little wings and slowly landed on her shoulder.

Weimar and Caice both exclaimed, "That's cool!

......

The long-awaited meeting between Luna and Alice and the others didn't drag on for long. At noon, Kayce took Luna's handwritten letter and handed it to Carrick.

The meeting place was arranged at Blackstone Fort.

Of course, this was Weimar's suggestion, and it was obviously appropriate to invite the lord to the bandit camp, and it was too bright in autumn to make it impossible to meet in the wild. He was a little worried about Luna's safety, but Blackstone Castle was still the most suitable place.

Alice, who received the news, also arranged for the kitchen to prepare a dinner party.

When Luna is in the carriage and escorted by Caiss, she arrives at Blackstone Castle. Alice, Linda, and Elena, all dressed in decently long dresses, are waiting for each other in the living room.

Pushing the door open, Luna was clearly dressed up, dressed in a long blue woollen dress with silk lace, a shiny mink cape, moleskin gloves on her hands, and a pearl necklace around her neck.

Even Alice had to marvel in her heart, she didn't look like the daughter of a robber at all, she looked lively and cute, especially with her slightly curly blue hair, very vibrant.

"Welcome to Blackstone Fort. Alice took on the posture of a lord, her expression was elegant, and her tone was modest.

Luna is not a child with stage fright, so she greeted her cheerfully and saluted, "Luna Heimworth, it's my honor to meet you." ”

"Alice Sander, sister of the Lord of Blackstone Castle. Alice first introduced herself, then pointed to Linda and Elena: "This is Linda, this is Elena, my good friend." ”

"Hello, Luna!" they both greeted with a smile.

Elena looks a little soft and weak, but Linda's appearance is a little intimidating at first glance. Luna's expression was slightly nervous, and she smiled and saluted, "Miss Linda, you must be the strong man that Caice said." ”

Linda smiled and nodded slightly. Alice hurriedly said, "The castle has prepared a dinner, please." ”

"Well, I have a gift for you too. Luna turned and walked out, holding a linen wrap in her hand and holding out a bouquet of tulips of various colors.

"It's ...... Tulips?" Alice recognized, her expression surprised.

"Flower of Victory!" as a gift for a friend," Luna winked playfully, splitting into three bunches and sending them to them one by one, "I hope you enjoy it." ”

"Thank you, please take a seat. Alice sniffed the fragrance of the flowers, and a smile welled up on her face: "There are some secrets that belong to us, let's talk while eating." ”

When the door to the living room closed, Alice sat down with a bright tulip in her hand: "Miss Luna, if I'm not mistaken. Is this your power? It's an eye-opener to be able to make tulips bloom in late fall. ”

"Yes. Mistress Alice. Luna nodded solemnly, her eyes reverent, "Weaver of Emerald Dreams, the embodiment of nature and life, the Lord of the Eternal Dream Jungle - the majestic Krem! ”

"Force of Nature...... Well...... Alice, Linda, and Elena looked at each other and smiled, "Miss Luna, it seems that you have indeed met a great god like us." But – not the same incarnation. ”

"Huh?" Luna looked confused.
