Chapter 593: A Family Reunion
The Elven King should have been furious when he learned of Liszt and Liszt"s true intentions. However, whether it was the Phoenix Egg, the sun fruit, the diamond-tier staff, or the crystal wheat, they were all highly precious items to others. He could not resist those treasures, so he was not angry. Instead, he was filled with envy and hatred.
"Why is the human kingdom so rich while the Elven Kingdom hides in the Forest of Eternity and lives close to nature? How far has the Holy Dragon Kingdom progressed?"
The Elven King was regretting it then. He regretted coming to the Holy Dragon Kingdom with Watson to visit those places. He regretted not activating the power of the race chess pieces earlier and led the army to attack. That way, those things might have been his for a long time.
"Pack up those things later. I"ll bring them back to the Elven Kingdom. Is there anything else worth visiting on this mountain?"
The Elven King calmed his excitement. After all, he was the leader of the elves. He had acted stubbornly to protect his dignity, but he still had to take the benefits.
"Of course, Your Majesty. There are many places worth visiting on Mount Creation. Please follow me," Allen said hurriedly, his face full of joy. He reached out and led the elves to the next location.
The Elven King looked confused. He suddenly thought of a problem. The number of resources there was shocking, and that was not all. With such powerful resources and the strength of Mount Creation"s residents, Watson could definitely face the elves head-on. Why would he rely on him? Did Watson want the elves for something?
It was probably because of his brilliant mind and his kingly aura.
"Watson should not have been attracted by my heroic appearance leading the elven army to conquer the Holy Dragon Kingdom, right? I made many fine points in my speech when I broke the starlight barrier. It"s no wonder Watson would want to follow me."
A strange scarlet color flashed in his eyes, and the Elven King"s initial doubts were quickly dispelled. He looked confident as he left with Allen and Liszt.
He did not notice that the air around him distorted after he left, and a snake-shaped scarlet object flashed in the air and disappeared.
On the other hand, in Watson"s direction.
"Father, Mother, I"m back."
Watson pushed open the door to the hall on the first floor of the Blackmoon Castle and shouted. He took a deep breath and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar scene in the castle. He could not help but feel a little emotional.
It had only been a few months since he left the world"s highest mountain, but a few years had pa.s.sed there. He had been busy dealing with King Landhar III and did not have the time to see how his family was doing. He missed them very much.
After a while, the entire corridor remained silent. The scene that Watson had imagined of his family running out to welcome him with tears in their eyes did not appear.
"Hey! I"m back."
Stunned on the spot, Watson shouted again in disbelief. However, they still did not appear. After waiting a long time, he heard faint footsteps. A beautiful girl with green hair braided in a single ponytail and in a maid"s outfit appeared. She came in front of Watson with an excited expression.
"Young Master Watson, it"s been a long time since we"ve seen each other. You"re finally back."
"Wendy?"
Watson was a little unsure. The young girl looked about 14 or 15 years old. She had a well-developed figure, and the two lumps on her chest swayed as she ran. At that moment, she was looking up at him. Her long eyelashes were stained with tears. She blinked gently, and a flower-like smile bloomed on her flushed face.
"Yes, Young Master Watson. I"m Wendy. "
A few years ago, Wendy was only a little kid about her age. In the blink of an eye, she had grown into a stunning beauty.
"Where are my brothers and sisters?" Watson reached out and patted Wendy"s hair. Wendy showed a look of enjoyment and caressed his hand like a kitten.
Wendy looked at his hand and took a step back in embarra.s.sment. It was as if she had just woken up from a dream. "The Young Masters and Young Ladies are currently on the top floor. During your absence, Master Edward has been spending every day with Lady Catherine. About a year ago, Lady Catherine was pregnant with another child. Just now, Lady Catherine said that she had abdominal pain and summoned all the maids. The Young Masters also rushed here. I think Lady Catherine should be giving birth soon."
"I see."
Watson"s face was full of joy. When he saw no one in the castle, he thought that his family had hated him. Then, he learned that his mother was going to give birth, and he would have a younger brother or sister soon. That was a joyous occasion.
"Wendy, which room is my mother in now? Take me there quickly. "
"Madam is in the third room on the top floor, to the right."
Wendy turned around and was about to show Watson the way when she suddenly felt her body becoming lighter. She lowered her head and found herself in Watson"s arms. Watson said, "It"s too slow to walk. I can"t wait any longer. Let me take you up." He flew up the stairs.
Wendy"s heart calmed, feeling that Watson"s chest had become much firmer than it had been a long time ago, and he looked manly. The redness on her cheeks became more obvious. Her hands grabbed the corner of Watson"s clothes carefully, and she pressed her cheek against it.
She missed Watson every moment during his absence. She also wanted to accompany Watson, like Nightingale. Unfortunately, she knew that even though she had become an angel, she was still not good at fighting and could not help Watson in any way. The only thing she could do was to command the maids in the castle to serve the other young masters and young ladies so that Watson could leave home and go out wandering in peace.
When Watson came back, she only needed to care for him when he was tired.
"Young Master Watson is still as rea.s.suring as ever." Wendy closed her eyes and murmured.
Suddenly, she felt a tremor in her body. When she opened her eyes, she found that she had already arrived at Catherine"s room. The Garry family members stood at the door, including Edward, Watson"s eldest brother, Vincent, and the others.
Unexpectedly, they arrived at their destination quickly. Wendy felt a little lost. When she saw Edward and the others turn their heads to look at her, Wendy jumped out of Watson"s arms.
"Watson, you"re home?"
His eldest brother, Vincent, was the first to notice Watson. He quickly walked up and gave Watson a bear hug.
After a few months, his big brother had matured a lot. He had a broad waist and a thick back, and he also wore gold-rimmed gla.s.ses on his face. He looked refined, but his aura had gotten stronger. He had reached the peak of the diamond tier.
Previously, Watson had developed all sorts of potions for the Dragon Clan, including the Dragon Transformation Potion and Ascension Potion. Those potions had been given to the Blackmoon Knights when he fought against King Landhar III. As members of Watson"s family, they naturally received more than one portion.
Watson"s brothers and sisters had already consumed the Dragon Transformation Potion and become diamond-tier elites with angel and dragon bloodlines. They had also consumed the Ascension Potion and experienced the power of a starlight-tier elite. As a result, their training was very smooth. As long as they followed the steps, they would be able to advance to starlight-tier.
