Chapter 387: Meet the Parents
As the leader of the Kigameshu family, Sandas's age of more than seventy is not too big among cultivators, and it can even be said that he is young, after his strength is upgraded to level 4, the lifespan of humans and other intelligent beings will increase significantly, and when he reaches level 5, it is normal for humans who originally had a short life span to live to be more than one hundred and fifty years old, so Sandas's lifespan is actually more than half left, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is young
But Sandas's hair and beard were all gray—he couldn't completely stop aging until he reached the level of a saint
Now, the old man, who was not angry and arrogant, was standing quietly in front of the window of the study, silently waiting for the arrival of his grandson
There was a knock at the door: the old man and the young master are here with guests
Well, let them in
When William pushed open the door, Alicia was standing behind him, looking around curiously: the floor was covered with a carpet made of the soft fur of an unknown animal, which was very comfortable to step on; on the walls on both sides were wall cabinets and bookshelves, on which were mostly books on the geography of the continent, animal and plant illustrated books, and the art of war, but nothing about magic was found; the fireplace by the wall was cleaned up, but the black fire marks left by the ordinary winter could not be erased, so I had to give up; Near the window was a desk and matching chair, with a few papers next to it, an open bottle of ink, and a quill in it
In front of the window, a tall, gray-haired old man facing outwards drew a long shadow into the room in the light of the setting sun
[Wow, the air is so heavy, is it true that once people are old, they like to increase their momentum through this method of poss, you know, the real old strong people will not deliberately put on a shelf in front of the juniors, they will do this, only those who seem to be masters, but in fact, it is difficult to cultivate an inch, the old man is not the old man, I said, you go to learn to learn, people are dead, and you don't pay for your life, oh, it's not a straightforward and naïve temperament, how to not obey the old Grandpa Zhou]
William took a careful breath, stood up straight, and said in a deep voice: "Grandpa, I'm back."
You still have the face to come back - well, such a bloody super-expansion is naturally impossible, and it seems that interrupted by William's words, Sandas, who is pensive, raised his head slightly, and slowly turned around
Alicia suddenly widened in surprise, her beautiful big sapphire blue eyes: the old man in front of her, whose hair and beard were so white that he could put on a magic robe, took a magic staff, rode on a white horse, and pretended to be a melee fighter, there was not a trace of wrinkles on his face, if it weren't for the indelible marks on his skin over the years, some people would have believed him if he was a young man
Sandas's brown eyes also widened, he only heard those servants who liked to chew the root of their tongue say that William had brought a group of warblers and Yanyan back, and was about to ask his grandson about the origin of the girls, but he didn't expect that the girl who appeared in front of him with William was so beautiful and incomprehensible, it was like the masterpiece of the creator god
It's just that the girl's age is really too young, and she doesn't seem to be attached to William at all, what's going on, isn't this kid getting her right?
Although he was curious about the progress of the young boys and girls in front of him, Sandas still chose to talk about the business first: William, do you know what kind of situation is in China now
Knowing that William lowered his head and replied honestly
There is no next time, Sandas rhythmically tapped the table with his index finger and said, even put down the battle for the throne that may be carried out at any time, no matter how far you go to the wilderness to find the elves to ask for the holy water of life, even if it is your father and my son, I will not allow you to do this kind of thing for him again, he accidentally fell into the curse cast by the enemy during the battle, he has already discredited our Kigamesh family, it is not worth taking a future emperor with him, but since you have rushed back in time, then this time I will not pursue it, but remember that there is absolutely no next time...,
Yes, thank you, grandpa
Sandas then put on a kind face and looked at Alicia who was standing quietly next to William and said with a smile: "Shouldn't you introduce me to this beautiful girl next to you?"
William just wanted to speak, but Alicia spoke first: It's nothing, we just met by chance on the way, and then I was entrusted by him to help lift the curse, please don't care, now that the curse has been lifted, we will leave in a few days
This kid's face turned pale when he heard this, and it seems that he really likes this little girl, but it's no wonder that whoever sees her will be deeply attracted, Sandas nodded secretly, didn't care about the little Lori's answer, and said with a smile:
Why bother leaving, anyway, you've rescued our family members, at least please accept our thanks before leaving
Yes, yes, William hurriedly agreed, Anyway, you and your friends are not in a hurry, let me take you to play in Craig for a while, and then it's not too late to make plans
Alicia suddenly raised her hand and said: Do you mean to continue to experience the unique courtship customs here, and you should be busy preparing to participate in the battle for the throne of the Tanzanian Empire these days, you can really have time to be a tour guide
At this moment, there was a sharp knock at the door: the old man is not good
It was the voice of the butler who had been in charge of greeting William
Sandras couldn't help frowning: what kind of panicked person came in, calmed down and slowly said what was going on
The butler glanced at Alicia and closed the door after Sandas nodded slightly, and said in a voice that could only be heard by a few people in the room: The spies who were arranged in the palace just now sent an urgent secret report that His Majesty had died about twenty minutes ago
[Why can't you leave now......]
Sandas was also stunned when he heard this, and then waved his hand to signal the butler to go down, and then said to William: You also heard it, thank you to the goddess of fate, William, if you come back a day late, how much disadvantage you will face, I don't need to say more, you go to the cultivation room now, I estimate that the battle will start tomorrow at the earliest, and the day after tomorrow at the latest, you must be fully prepared, during this period, I will be responsible for entertaining those beautiful guests of yours, rest assured
Understood, I'll go right away, William finished speaking, turned to look at Alicia with a helpless face, and said, Please, please wait for me to come back before it's over, okay
Little Lori patted William's arm in embarrassment, and said matter-of-factly: Big brother, you are about to set foot on the battlefield under the guidance of fate, and Sao Nian, who is destined to win the Best Cup Supporting Actor Award, failed to confess when she said goodbye to the girl she had a crush on, and planned to wait until she came back, and finally used a bento line that made the girl vaguely aware of her intentions but destined to be unable to fulfill the promise of a safe return as a concluding line, do you know, so don't make a tight face and laugh
William couldn't laugh because the muscles around the corners of his mouth were cramping, and Sandas suddenly turned his back as if admiring the view outside the window, but what was the matter with his shaky body
Ahhh
What do you think of people's little white faces, if the T-shaped robot is so handsome, the heroine of the first part will not be deceived by the poor sling silk who has no equipment, and the protagonist of the series will not be born, and Skynet will have long since conquered the unified solar system with the Martians
Seeing that the embarrassed William was completely in a state of complaining, Alicia could only raise her hands and surrender: Okay, okay, I know, I won't go anywhere until you're done with this, it's okay, your father's curse has disappeared, and the only thing left is to recuperate your body as soon as possible, and you can heal in about a week, so you don't have to worry about him concentrating on meeting the challenge of fate...... Ahh
William finally regained a smiling expression on his face, stretched out his hand to touch the little Lori's head, but she quietly took half a step back and avoided it, and awkwardly retracted it and said: Uh, thank you, I'll go first
After the young man who wanted to stop talking, Sandras turned around and looked at Alicia carefully, and said with admiration on his face for a while: "I have to admit that you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, and you are obviously very intelligent, and you should be able to see William's affection for you."
All he had to do was write on his face, Alicia sighed and shook her head
It seems that you are not very happy, Sandas smiled and said, I testify as an elder, you are the first girl he has a crush, and he has a good chance of becoming the next emperor of the Tanzanian Empire, what are you dissatisfied with him, or is your family already arranging a marriage contract for you, by the way, I still don't know your name......
Little Lori elegantly lifted her skirt and bowed, and said: Hello for the first time, my name is Alicia Harris, who is 13 years old this year and has never been engaged, but he already has a lover, so I'm sorry that I can't accept Brother William's affection
William, where did that kid come from to kidnap this famous girl, oh, don't invite him to the house, the corner of his eyes twitched, Sandas, couldn't help but pinch the bridge of his nose, took out a newspaper from the desk drawer, compared it with the real person on the front page, and then sighed: Miss Harris, I think the current magic sensor needs to be completely improved, what do you think
