Chapter 192: Grandpa's Reaction and Lillian's Runaway
At the top of the castle in the middle of the manor, a fist-sized strange eyeball kept staring at the direction Luke was coming.
In the hall, an old man dressed in solemn and old-fashioned clothes stood by the window, constantly looking out.
The bat-like demon fluttered its wings and flew up and down on the side, reporting the location of the vehicle.
"They're in the forest."
"It's out of town."
"Master, get ready, they have entered the manor, get off immediately."
The old man, who was originally anxious, forcibly calmed down at this time, "What's the hurry, shut up, don't speak for a while." ”
With that, he strode out of the living room and returned to the tea room at the back, as if he had been drinking tea slowly, and had never waited here.
The three Lukes followed Wagner to the door, and watched him push hard, and the door opened smoothly without a single "squeak" noise.
Big families are different.
After a few people entered the hall, Wagner turned up his voice and shouted inside: "Hey, daddy, look who I brought here!" ”
Gelman Asmo walked out of the tea room on the side unhurriedly, and when he saw his daughter who he hadn't seen for twenty or thirty years, his expression on his face did not fluctuate, his eyes swept over, and he didn't even look at her more, and asked Wagner: "Didn't you say that you won't be allowed to go?" ”
Wagner knew his father's temper and pulled Mason Sr. and Luke along, "Let's go over there and rest for them to catch up." ”
The two of them followed him to the small parlor at the back of the side, leaving only Gelman and Lillian in the entire hall.
Gelman had to look at the rebellious daughter and ask with a bit reproach, "Now you know it's back?" ”
Lilian looked at her father, who was much older than in her memory, and couldn't stop tears from the corners of her eyes, walked over slowly, and hugged her father without saying a word.
Gelman, who wanted to say a few more harsh words, suddenly became at a loss, his body stiffened in place, listening to the whispered sobs of his daughter next to his ear, he sighed, raised his arm, and gently patted her on the back.
"Alright, alright, aren't they all back?"
After a long while, Lillian collected her emotions, stood up on her own, pouted, and said, "I'm sorry, Dad." ”
"Okay, you're also in your forties, why are you still like a little girl." Seeing his daughter with tears in the corners of his eyes, Gelman was in a trance, as if she had been pestering herself to go out to study when she was a teenager again, he wiped away Lillian's tears and asked, "Did that bastard do something sorry for you?" ”
Lillian hurriedly said: "No, there has been a bit of chaos near Phoenix recently, and it just so happened that Wagner had just contacted me, so I thought about coming back." ”
"By the way, what about Mom? Why didn't you see her? ”
"Breath of the Wild, oh, it's a druid organization." Gelman thought about it, and his daughter didn't seem to know what a druid was, so she didn't know how to explain it, so she simply said: "In short, it's a supernatural organization that advocates nature, and they have set up a beauty store, and your mother has to go there for half a month every year for all these years to do skin care, and the effect can last for a whole year." ”
"She'll be back in about five days." Gelman said dissatisfiedly: "People in their eighties still care so much about their appearance, and they don't even know when their daughter comes back." ”
"Huh?" When Mrs. Lillian heard this, she hurriedly asked, "Is the skin care effect good?" Where, I also want to go. ”
Seeing her father's old face darken, Lady Lillian smiled wryly and changed the subject: "By the way, Dad, you haven't seen Luke yet, let's go meet them." ”
The black demon flew on the dome, looked at the master who was led by Lilian to the living room, and sighed: "Sure enough, the bunch of lines that I have worked so hard to prepare are in vain, master, I will never be able to parry this daughter." ”
Mason and Wagner were chatting about the topic of Lady Lillian's youth, when suddenly the two pushed the door in, and Mason, who had abducted someone else's daughter for many years, immediately stood up, looking at the old man with anger in his eyes, he instantly regretted it, it was so terrible, he felt as if he shouldn't be here.
Lillian tugged at Gelman's clothes, and he glanced back at his daughter, snorted with a warning sound, and then turned his head away from him.
Mason breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly stood in the corner, trying to reduce his presence.
Gelman's gaze turned to Luke, looking him up and down.
The daughter looks like her father, and the son looks like her mother.
This rounding up, isn't it that the grandson looks like his grandfather.
This good grandson, the more I look at it, the more he looks like when I was young, tall and handsome!
The high-spirited memories of his youth poured up from the bottom of the memories, which made Gelman feel a little emotional, and the more he looked at this grandson, the more pleasing it became.
He unconsciously smiled at his grandfather and beckoned to Luke: "Child, I've suffered you all these years." ”
Luke:???
I'm not bitter.
But he still walked up to Gelman very well-behaved, "Grandpa, you look much more handsome than your uncle." ”
"Of course, this kid doesn't inherit me at all in terms of appearance."
The handsome and sweet-mouthed Luke got his due reward, and Gelman took a bracelet from his left hand and handed it to him: "Child, this is a gift for you." ”
Ahh
As the saying goes, the elders give, don't dare to resign.
Luke was polite and took the bracelet and put it on his wrist.
Gelman continued: "This bracelet can effectively defend against soul attacks and witchcraft curses below the hero level, and when encountering a soul attack above the hero level, the beads on it will automatically explode and replace you with it. ”
This bracelet is really precious, and it happens to be Luke's current shortcoming.
After listening to Gelman's introduction, he felt that this gift was a little hot, so he had to tear it off and at least push it a few times before accepting it.
Seeing Luke's movements, Gelman stretched out his other hand and pulled down his sleeve, and the same bracelet hung prominently on the wrist of his right hand.
Oh.
Also, then you're welcome.
Luke happily accepted the gift, "Thank you, grandpa!" ”
Gelman nodded with a smile, turned his head and criticized Wagner with a cold face: "Look at Lilian's children are so old, you don't have a wife now, are you still embarrassed to stand here?" ”
Yes?
I?
Wagner looked confused.
Why did the fire shift to me?
I'll just eat melons.
He defended: "Last month, you also said that I should cultivate hard and strive to be promoted to the hero rank as soon as possible. I've found the feeling of breaking through now, and in half a year at most, I will definitely be able to advance. ”
Gelman hated the reprimand of iron: "Look at Luke, he is only 18 years old, you are more than twice as old as him, and the cultivation time and environment are much stronger than him, he is already a hero now, you still have the face to say that you have found the feeling of breaking through, I am ashamed of you." ”
It's not that before I left Black Spindle, I was the backbone of the Asmo clan, the pillar of the future, and the genius cursed wizard in my father's mouth, and it has only been three or four days.
Why is this happening......
Bringing home my sister who has been away from home for more than 20 years.
The realm that has been imprisoned for a long time is about to break through.
Two happy things coincide.
And these two happiness bring me more happiness.
What you get is supposed to be a happy time like a dream......
But why, is this happening......
He said aggrievedly: "But, father, you have been cultivating much longer than me, and you still don't have a hero level." ”
Well?
Dare to fight back!
Gelman slapped him on the back of the head: "Go out and learn to talk back, right?" ”
Wagner shrunk his head and stopped talking.
After chatting in the reception room for a while, Lilian saw her husband's restrained and restless look, stretched her waist, and said to Gelman, "Dad, we have been driving for a day, and we are really tired. ”
Wagner interjected: "Why don't I arrange for them to live first, by the way, I will introduce the changes in the family over the years, and you will also rest and rest, father." ”
Lillian and Mason are just ordinary people after all, and their energy is very limited.
"Take them there, Lillian is still in her original room, and she's kept it for him. As for him," Gelman glanced at Mason, and said angrily, "Arrange a room at will." ”
Luke hurriedly raised his head: "What about me, grandpa?" ”
"You live next door to me, I have something to ask you."
"Okay."
Wagner took Mason and Lillian to rest, leaving Luke and Gelman in the parlor to continue chatting.
Gelman sighed and asked, "I haven't picked up Lilian for so many years, she must be very resentful of me." ”
Luke smiled and said, "No, Mother has never said anything bad about you. ”
I didn't even hear her talk about her parents, and I thought that she was the same as her father, whose parents died young.
Of course, Luke thought about this in his heart and didn't say it.
Gelman's face was slightly comforted, and he said: "When I sent her out to study, in fact, I guessed that this would be the result, in fact, it is better for her to go out than to stay in the black spindle." ”
Looking at Luke's puzzled expression, he smiled and explained, "Lilian, this child, I tested her when she was very young, she is a natural transcendent insulator, and it is impossible for her to step into transcendence through cultivation. ”
"If she stays in the town, as she grows older, she will slowly discover that she is different from others, others can cultivate, and they can all have extraordinary powers, only she can't cultivate, and she is as mediocre as the ordinary people in the town, such a contrast, I am afraid it will be difficult for her to accept when she was a child at the time."
Indeed, Luke thought about it.
Teenage years are a time of energy and fantasy, just like the predecessor and Renard, full of curiosity about gods and ghosts.
If you happen to be born in such a family, watching everyone around you have extraordinary abilities, but you can only be a mortal, it is indeed easy to make people mentally unbalanced, become extreme or inferior.
He nodded and said, "You're right. ”
Gelman continued: "So from the moment we knew she couldn't step into the transcendental, we deliberately reduced her connection to the transcendent world, trying not to show her other-human powers in front of her, so I didn't force her back when she ran away from home and was with that bastard. ”
"Then you didn't sneak a look at her?" Luke asked.
Gelman stretched out his hand, and a small, pitch-black bat-like monster fell into his hand.
"Familiar?"
Luke looked at the little monster, and his mental power flipped through the memories of his predecessor, until he was very far in the front position, and finally got the right number.
He was surprised and said, "When I was one or two years old, it seemed to be in my house a lot!" ”
Luke hadn't forgotten the memories of when he was one or two years old, but Gelman wasn't surprised, after all, transcendentals, especially those who cultivated spiritual power, basically had the ability to flip through their own memories after their souls gradually became stronger.
He handed the little bat to Luke and said, "This is my messenger, Koren, and it has been in your house until you were three years old. ”
The bat made Mokoren fly to Luke's shoulder, and his wings patted his ears: "Little Luke, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, you were a little bit when I left, and now you are taller than the master." ”
Luke's first reaction was:
His summons can talk!
Want!
Then curiously, he touched the demon's wings with his hand.
Koren stretched out his wings and giggled, "When you were a child, you liked to touch my wings like this. ”
Luke retracted his fingers in embarrassment, mainly because of Cologne's fleshy, smooth wings, which looked like they felt good.
Looking at this inconspicuous little thing, the ability to identify has already given him basic information.
Shadow Bat (Cologne)
The Asmo family's traditional magician, the Shadow Demon Bat, is a loyal and intelligent demon who is skilled in stealth and reconnaissance, and is an excellent spy and assassin. Of course, there are also occasional cameo appearances as babysitters with children.
【Skills】
[Shadow Control]: The Shadow Bat can manipulate and harness the surrounding shadow energy, allowing it to hide in the dark and easily pass through enemy lines. They can envelop themselves and others in shadows, making them difficult to detect.
[Shadow Possession]: The Shadow Demon Bat can attach its own consciousness and abilities to other creatures, temporarily giving it similar dark and sonic abilities and enhancing its combat effectiveness.
[Sonic Attack]: The Shadow Bat can unleash a powerful sonic attack, which shocks the enemy's body through high-frequency sound waves, which can deal damage, cause the enemy to lose balance and direction, and may interfere with the enemy's thinking and perception.
[Sonic Barrier]: The Shadow Bat can use sonic energy to create a protective shield that blocks physical and magical attacks, protecting itself and its allies from harm.
[Bloodthirsty Energy Absorption]: The Shadow Demon Bat can restore its physical strength and mana by absorbing the blood and energy of creatures, allowing it to maintain strong attack power for a long time in battle.
Look at Cologne's luxurious ability, and then look at his own Harpier.
Well, it doesn't seem to be bad.
Satisfied.
As if sensing something, Coren flapped his wings from Luke's shoulders and flew to the roof, where he hung and stared down.
"Hey, back then, you were a little guy who couldn't walk steadily, but now you're even stronger than me, time flies so fast."
Big brothers! Please, give me a monthly pass! The child is just a few votes away!
