Daniel's cousin lived in the nearby Lily of the Valley, and it took them almost a day to arrive by carriage.
“Oh, my dear cousin, why are you back again?” James Lily asked curiously.
Shouldn't this person return to their own territory after visiting Harvest Town?
"James, I specially brought you a powerful elf hatcher this time. How's your bronze spirit fruit?"
Daniel stepped forward, hugged James Suzuran, and asked.
"You're hiring a fertility specialist to help me cultivate a Brass Fairy Fruit? Isn't that unnecessary?"
James looked completely bewildered.
He had never seen this person care so much when he encountered this kind of fairy fruit before.
What's wrong with me today?
“No, you’re very important to me. Can you let the breeder I hired take care of it? I’ll give you a surprise then,” Daniel said.
“Of course, you know, it’s a small matter for me,” James replied.
He didn't really care about the little brass sprite.
“Then I’ll be bothering you now!” Daniel said.
He then turned to the carriage in the distance and, in a gentlemanly manner, asked her to alight. Turning to James, he introduced her:
"This is the nurturer I invited, my distinguished guest Miss Fang Yuan, and her younger brother Fang Ping'an."
Daniel carefully introduced Fang Yuan and his sister to him.
"Hello, Mr. James, I am Fang Yuan, an elf breeder," Fang Yuan introduced himself with a smile.
Anyway, these people don't know what she did in the past.
She can make up whatever she wants.
“Hello, beautiful Miss Fangyuan, I am James Lily of the Valley, it is a pleasure to come to my territory.”
James looked at Fang Yuan, who had black hair and black eyes, and then at the little elf sitting on her shoulder. He treated her very well.
James turned to Fang Ping'an and greeted him, "Hello, dear Mr. Fang Ping'an, welcome to my territory."
"Sir James, excuse me."
Fang Ping'an replied shyly, following Fang Yuan's instructions.
He knew he was visiting someone else's home, and he remembered everything his sister said.
"No disturbance at all. I'm very happy. My territory hasn't had any guests in a long time. You are truly welcome."
After James finished speaking, he led the group to his castle.
This is a very majestic castle, yet it also exudes exquisite charm.
The castle is very tall, appearing to have at least five stories from the outside, and it looks very imposing.
The castle walls are also surrounded by a circle of lilies of the valley, adding a touch of delicacy and warmth.
"This castle is beautiful!" Fang Yuan couldn't help but exclaim.
She also knew that any nobleman in the world with a title could own such a castle.
After all, their lifespans exceeded one hundred years after they formed a contract with an elf.
A castle is meant to be inhabited for one or two hundred years or even longer, so it naturally needs to be well maintained.
“Really? I’m sure Miss Fang Yuan would like my castle too,” Daniel said with a smile.
His castle was similar to James's, but his garden was larger.
"Really? That's wonderful! I look forward to visiting your castle!" Fang Yuan replied with a smile.
Upon entering the house, the living room was also grand and magnificent, befitting a viscount's castle.
"James, why hasn't that painting on the wall been changed yet?" Daniel asked as he entered the room.
“Please, that’s my great-grandfather’s favorite painting. I wouldn’t dare change it,” James replied with a shrug.
His great-grandfather was a marquis, living next to the Duchy of the Rose.
This was just a villa where he had lived for a period of time.
After the land was granted to him, he only made minor repairs, and there were some things he didn't understand.
"Elders always have better judgment!" Fang Yuan said with a subtle compliment.
People here have very long lifespans, so under normal circumstances, his great-grandfather should still be alive.
“Yes, I also think this painting is pretty good, so I’ve kept it hanging there,” James said with a smile.
"By the way, I have quite a few other paintings upstairs. If you'd like, Miss Fang Yuan, I can take you up to see them."
"Alright, James, we can look at the paintings anytime. Now, please take us to see your new little darling!"
Daniel didn't want this guy to bring up anything else.
Since they're going to be staying here for a while anyway, we can talk about some things later.
"Oh, Daniel, you're still as impatient as ever. That fairy fruit is in my back garden. Please follow me."
James led Daniel and Fang Yuan to the castle's back garden.
A wheat seedling, much thicker than the others, stood out in the garden.
"It's an elf fruit, an elf fruit that hasn't fully grown yet!"
Fang Ping'an looked at the small, yellowish fruit on the wheat seedling and exclaimed in surprise.
Even though he had seen many fairy fruits before, he still liked seeing them again.
“Yes, dear Mr. Fang Anping, I didn’t expect you to be so knowledgeable.” James looked at Fang Anping and smiled.
“Yes, I’ve seen similar ones before, so I can recognize them.” Fang Ping’an nodded with a hint of pride.
"I didn't expect it to be a wheat fairy fruit. In that case, would it be convenient for Mr. James to plant the wheat seedling in a flowerpot? I need to watch over it myself!"
Fang Yuan directly offered his opinion.
"This...you want to put it in the bedroom?" James asked, somewhat puzzled.
Fairy fruits need to absorb enough natural energy to grow, so won't putting them in a flowerpot affect their growth?
In the past, when the breeders were cultivating the spirit fruits, they all lived with the spirit fruits.
Isn't this person doing it backwards?
“That’s right, so I need a room with a balcony that gets sunlight,” Fang Yuan replied with a smile.
"But the closer these fairy fruits are to nature, the faster they grow. Are you sure?" James asked again.
He now has some doubts about whether this female breeder has ever actually cultivated any spirit fruits.
He looked at Daniel, his eyes full of questions.
In order to bring back the fairy fruit along with the wheat seedlings that grew from it, he cleared away a lot of the wheat seedlings around it.
After all, it's an elf that can increase production; if it were really killed, he'd be devastated.
"Don't worry, it won't have any problems with me. I can guarantee it won't die."
As Fang Yuan spoke, he reached out and touched the wheat stalk, and the green wheat stalk visibly grew taller.
Even the little fairy fruit on top seems to have gotten a bit bigger.
This scene surprised both James and Daniel.
"Your awakened ability can actually affect the Elf Fruit Tree?" Daniel said in disbelief.
This was the first time he had ever seen someone with this ability.
After all, other people who have awakened magic are also unable to cast spells on elves.
"Indeed, Miss Fang Yuan, you've really surprised us," James exclaimed.
What had they just seen? He couldn't believe it.
