The Defeated Dragon

“I haven't seen you in two months. Young Master Lester seems more spirited than ever. How's life in Flower Town?” Lewis asked with a smile.

“Everything's fine. ”

“That's good, the master has spoken to you several times, and he cares about your life now. ”

Does the Earl of Coral Island talk about Lester's life? Lester seemed suspicious that the Count really cared about Lester and would not seal Lester up in a broken town like Flower Town.

Back home, Lester didn't feel frightened in the neighborhood.

The soul in the body comes from another distant world, and the memories of its predecessors are just a movie picture that can't affect his emotions today. He had no affection with the tulips, no blood thicker than water, and everything was more like a game, replacing Lester.

The busy servants of the castle met the three youths and young ladies and bowed down to salute them.

Members of the Tulip family who live here are only the Countess, Countess, Livis, Lipton and the frequently returning Rivera, but there are more than 200 servants.

And the servants hardly have much free time, busy from morning to night.

True work, taken together, is one - maintaining a life of nobility and luxury.

“I'm going to take a bath. I can't stand the smell.” Li Weila went into the castle and turned around and left, "my father asked me and said I would be there in a minute. ”

Livius was like the owner of the castle: "Lester, do you need a bath first? Your room, which your father kept for you all the time, including the clothes you didn't take with you, was handled exclusively by servants. ”

“I am not a cleansing sister, I will wait here for my father, brother can go busy, I do not have to entertain. ”

“Yes, the castle is your home too, well, I have to go talk to Mr. Frank about the black tulip, the planting, the selling and the pharmaceuticals, they're all helping me out. And the elves, too, need to be settled, and these delicate little creatures can't be a little lazy. ”

Reeves also left.

Marcus followed a butler to settle the horse, leaving only Lester and a few welcome butlers in the living room. With his hands behind his back, he admired the number of gems such as the crystal lamp on the pillar - the crystal of the castle - representing the wealth of the nobility, since most of the gems come from dragons.

In Lester's hometown, the stones are probably good looking.

Here, the gem is a natural magic attachment, containing magical powers, making magical objects, and the gem is indispensable. The crystal lamp on the stone column in front of you, which is a magical object, is made of low-quality crystals, and it can stay lit until the magic in the crystal is consumed - then replenished by a magician or knight.

It cycles back and forth until the crystal wears off and becomes a regular stone.

“No pattern engraved crystal lamp is worth admiring for so long?” Someone opened up behind Lester as his dazzling boots touched the ground.

Lester turned around, and on the stairs leading up to the second floor in the castle living room, he met the owner of Tulip Chateau, a middle-aged man with pale blonde hair, with a pair of not-so-pretty grey green eyes, quite different from the three Sapphire eyes of the Lester brothers and sisters.

Ordinary face, nothing unique.

Mixed in the crowd, Lee William Tulip would probably be blind. But he is the master of Coral Island, the Sky Knight who strives to earn the Earl himself.

Livius and Levera are like fathers over mothers, so it's not very nice, only sapphire eyes, all inherited from mothers.

Lester inherited his mother's appearance and was too handsome.

“I'm probably used to lighting candles, and I'm not used to the light of crystal lights for a while. ”

“What, are you complaining about life in Flower Town?” William Lee stood on the stairs and did not continue down.

“Life in Flower Town is extraordinarily free and I am satisfied, Father.” Lester bowed and gave a bow, "Your body is still as strong as usual, and your brawling temper is about to spill. ”

“Your fighting temper has risen, which is good, living in poverty, not complaining, is good.” William Lee nodded. "Where's your brother and sister? ”

“If anything happens, I'll be right back. ”

“Follow me to the study.” William Lee turned around and went upstairs.

Lister followed him upstairs and walked into the Count's study, which was huge, with a whole wall of bookshelves and lots of thick paper books - all sprayed with deodorants and perfumers, without the distinctive smell of thick paper. The front of the bookshelf is against the window, on the mahogany desk, and there are a lot of books stacked.

pāpāpā!

The Earl unwraps a bottle of the previous vintage crescent and pours it into two high-footed crystal glasses, with amber red wine shaking like blood in the glass and crystal clear.

Taken up, he handed his third son a cup, and the Count seemed somewhat surprised: "Two months of independent living seemed to grind your sexuality.” Old Lester, in front of him, couldn't let go, the relationship between father and son was unwieldy, and now Lester, seems calm.

“Thank you.” Lister took over the wine, "I understood Lord's responsibility and I needed to make a change. ”

“Positive change. ”

“I suppose so. ”

A few words, both father and son found that there didn't seem to be much to talk about. So the Count raised his glass, drank his lipstick, and shifted the subject, “Is the black tulip thing taken care of? How much did Livius pay you? ”

“Tulip Chamberlain is responsible for planting and selling, and I have a 10-year share of revenue, 30%, just between me and Livius and Rivera. ”

The Earl was silent for a moment: "Is it just cooperation between your three brothers and sisters? ”

“Yes.”

“You shouldn't leave Lipton alone, he's your own brother. ”

“He is young and Toshiba is not fine under his father's wings. My brother and sister are both adults. It is natural to work together.” Lester smiled slightly and did not deliberately explain or clear his thoughts - Lipton could not see him, and he could not see Lipton.

Seems like it's only now that I think about it, Lester asks, "Where's Madame and Lipton? I didn't see them. ”

“Madame took Lipton to Snake Spear City, Lipton's uncle's birthday today.” The Countess comes from a family of barons on Coral Island located in a small town near Snake Spear City.

Then there was another silence.

Lester had no inheritance of father-son affection with the Count, and could not chat like a stranger. It was difficult to grasp the degree between them, with less words.

The Count, for his part, is not used to Lester's current temperament, which is now more like an equal dialogue than it was before with Vignono, and finds no sense of reproach.

“Dinner's early," she said. "You can go around or meet your friends in Coral City. ”

“No, I want to stay in the study and read. ”

“I've never seen you read so much before.” The Count drinks red wine and gets up and leaves, "if you want to read a book, I'll have a car ready for you when you get back to Flower Town. ”
