"Alright, alright, don't keep them all standing. Come, give a seat. ”

The two maids on the side immediately brought two high-backed chairs. The gemstones set on the backs and armrests, as well as the openwork sun-shaped motif, once again emphasise the country's thriving scene.

"You're all friends of Tia, so treat this place as your own, and don't be too rigid about etiquette."

Helena greeted Alan and Ilt tenderly. Moo, who was full of expectations but didn't sit on the stool, crossed his two short paws and sat on the ground.

The harmonious atmosphere, touching scenes, and gentle words all made Alan feel more intimate.

"Well, maybe it's not a good place to chat, so come with me."

King John thought that his beloved Tia must have had many wonderful stories to tell him these days. However, from the layout to the decoration, from the environment to the atmosphere, the "Golden Temple" council hall was only used by the kings and their courtiers to discuss political affairs or issue decrees, and it was not suitable for a long chat with their children and guests here, so they led Tia and them into the inner hall.

The inner sanctum is a secluded and cozy spired building, with pink porches adorned with portraits of Tia as a child.

Tia took King John by the hand and went into the house with joy. She turned her head and couldn't help but smile at Alan and Ilt, bright and overflowing,

"This is where I lived when I was a kid."

"Aren't you living in the 'Temple of Nothing'?"

Ilt asked.

"I lived here until I was six years old. After receiving the oracle at the age of five, he practiced in this inner sanctum for a year, and after understanding the most basic workings of the magic of light, he moved out of the 'Golden Temple', and his mother said that after receiving the oracle, he was an independent person and could not always rely on their side. ”

Tia stroked the hanging portrait wistfully. It is a sketch of Tia catching butterflies among the flowers in the back garden, the charcoal sketch of Tia is innocent, cute and smart, with a bright smile on her round face, although it is only a black and white portrait, but this angelic smile makes the person who looks at it feel as if he is in it, and everything around him is colorful.

In the lower left corner of the painting, King John and Helena are standing side by side, although there are only two backs in the painting, but under the reflection of the setting sun, it still looks very warm.

Alan followed Tia even more, walking all the way to see and listen, and every movement and expression of the young Tia in the painting made Alan feel warm from the bottom of his heart. And looking at the graceful appearance of the preya, Alan couldn't help but think that he missed Tia's childhood, but he met her when she was at her best, otherwise, he didn't know how much he would have missed. He wants to know everything about this girl, and he wants to tolerate everything about her!

Passing through the porch, the group came to a smaller study. Although it is small, this is also compared to the previous magnificent halls. There is still room for twenty to thirty people to enter here.

King John and His Royal Highness Helena sat on the throne behind the desk, and although it was still a high-legged long-backed chair, it was more graceful and luxurious than before. The furniture here seems to be more like the home people's own. It's just that the carvings and materials are more unique.

Tia and Allen sat on their left side, while Ilt and Moo sat on their right. The two maids quickly served them six drinks with a magical glow. There was no need for fire, so the lamp in the study was lit, and the tray in the air held all kinds of precious fruits and refreshments, which were vacated and placed in front of several "little guests". This magical realm really fascinates Allen.

"Alan, thank you so much for bringing Tia back safely. Here, as a father, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to you. ”

As he spoke, King John and His Royal Highness Helena held up their sumptuous cups at the same time and nodded to Alan.

"That's what I'm supposed to do. Tia, oh no. The princess is very intelligent and skilled in the use of light magic. We've made it all the way back, and if it weren't for her efforts, we might not be here now. So it's not my credit. ”

Alan stood up, picked up his glass in the air, and drank it all. Re-place the cup in the air. Perform a knight's salute and return the salute.

King John smiled and looked at Alan appreciatively. I felt that this teenager was modest, but not impatient. As the saying goes, heroes come out of troubled times, and many young people are very self-controlled, and if they achieve some achievements and then praise them, they will be proud and complacent. Seeking merit and profit, in a vain attempt to increase the rank of official. And the red-haired young man in front of him, but his words were mostly praising Tia, and he couldn't help but love Alan a little more in his heart.

"Tia, the queen mother just heard you say, you went to the Sage's Forest? I heard that there are many demons there, but you are not injured, are you? In life, I have suffered a lot. ”

Helena naturally cares about her daughter very much,

"Mother, I'm fine, don't worry. As for life outside the royal city..."

Tia glanced at Alan beside her, her face flushed slightly,

"The world outside the royal capital seems to be unexpectedly exciting!"

Helena took in her daughter's subtle expressions, it seems that the child has really grown up, maybe it would be a good choice for her to go to the outside world to experience it. With a smile in her eyes, Helena took the palm of King John's hand on the side, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

In the time that followed, Tia recounted her experiences in the Philosopher's Forest, the Strange Mine and Odaheim to King John and His Royal Highness Helena, and with the antics of Moo and Ilt, the warm and joyful family atmosphere was pushed to a climax again and again. The hardships and laughter during this period were all valuable experiences for Tia. Of course, some things that made her blush and heartbeat, and very dangerous situations, Tia avoided talking about them.

King John and His Royal Highness Helena also knew that their daughter would not tell them all the dangers they encountered, because they were afraid that they would be worried, but as long as Tia stood here now, it was enough to prove that she was capable of dealing with the problems she encountered, and I have to admit that it was a successful experience.

"Tia, it seems that it takes a day to practice today, and it is not enough to finish it. It's not too early now, and my father's day of government is also very hard, and Alan and Ilt must be tired and hungry too. Then let's do our best to be a landlord and entertain everyone. ”
