Chapter 334: The Lord’s Happiness in the Second Half of His Life

Chapter 334: The Lord’s Happiness in the Second Half of His Life
The delicate and light voice, like the nasal voice of a young girl, seems very weak.

This tone is often used by women to gain benefits. Mistresses who want to get promoted usually speak like this and are collectively called Green Tea by the lords.

But the meaning of this sentence coming from Buji’s mouth is very different. If anyone dares to complain, the lord, as his old father, will hang him on the pillar outside Gaoya Castle and beat him.

“Not long after you left, Buji woke up. I noticed that she often babbled like a child and wanted to speak, so I taught her the common language. Unexpectedly, she learned it very quickly.” The smile on Tina’s face was as bright as a little white flower in spring, and she seemed very satisfied with the lord’s shocked look.

“How clever!” the Lord praised sincerely.

Although little Buji was smart before, he could only hum a few words. He thought he would never be able to speak in his life, but he didn’t expect that this time he got an unexpected surprise.

“Father, I miss you so much. You must take me with you next time you go out.” Little Buji flapped the two pairs of transparent little wings behind him, as if they were cicada wings. His two rosy little feet stood on the lord’s shoulders, his eyes full of dependence, and his two arms were around the lord’s face, rubbing it constantly.

Not to mention getting married, he was still a single young man, and he had a daughter out of nowhere. The lord was originally resistant in his heart, but seeing Buji like this, he couldn’t stop smiling like an auntie, and hurriedly comforted him: “Okay, okay, I will take you with me next time I go.”

“By the way, why do you call me father?” Although he accepted that there was an extra little girl, the lord was still full of doubts.

“Father, it is you who gave me life. The first moment I was born, your tall and majestic figure shone into my life like the sun in the sky.” Bu Ji showed a matter-of-fact look on his face, and then he crossed his two little hands and clasped them in front of his chest, with a look of admiration on his face.

Even though the lord was thick-skinned, he couldn’t help but blush. He clearly remembered that at that time, based on the principle of “it’s better to be safe than sorry”, he clearly retreated behind the crowd and blocked the stupid dog Beifeng in front of him.

“Buji, didn’t you and Beifeng go to the iron mine to play? How did you know that Lord Levi is back?” Miriel from the Mithril Chamber of Commerce asked curiously.

It is snowing heavily now. If a large army wants to march back to Gaoyabao from the iron mine, it will take at least ten days or half a month.

But Beifeng, as a high-level magical beast, was gasping for breath due to exhaustion, which showed that they had rushed back today in the snow.

“As soon as father came back, I felt his presence.” Little Buji floated in the air for a circle and landed on the palm of the lord’s outstretched hand. Levi stretched out his finger to tickle his chin and he giggled.

“Okay, go play first.” The lord had satisfied his father’s desire and let her go, “Your father, I have to eat first.”

“Beifeng, let’s go out and play.” Little Buji waved his hand in the air. Beifeng looked at the lord with a sad face, but was interrupted by someone who was not good at bootlicking. He immediately went out reluctantly with Buji, who was like a forest elf.

“How does it feel like Levi suddenly has a daughter?” Tina covered her mouth and giggled, “And little Buji is so cute, I’m really envious.”

“Then let’s just take this opportunity to get married. This way, my daughter will be your daughter, and you won’t have to be envious.” The lord munched on the roasted leg of lamb, seemingly joking.

But Tina’s face flushed, and she said in a whisper, “Okay.”

There were no twists and turns, just like going out for a meal together.

This was something the two had discussed a long time ago. Last time they said they would get married after returning from the south, but they didn’t expect that there were too many things to do later, so Levi went to Gunda again.

Now that I’m back, I have plenty of time to take care of this matter.

“I…” It was only at this moment that Ai Xilu finally mustered up the courage to say something.

After all, she was brought to Highcliff Castle by Levi as his fiancée. She had never thought about becoming the main wife of the Lord of Highcliff Castle. She would be satisfied as long as she was a concubine.

“Sister Aishilu, listen to your sister. You are still young now. Wait until you grow up to marry Levi. Having a married life too early will harm you.” Tina took Aishilu’s small hand and held it in her palm, speaking gently and kindly.

“Okay.” The little princess nodded meekly.

“Tina, you are becoming more and more like the Lady of Highcliff Castle.” Miriel was watching the show from the side, but there was a hint of envy on her face.

She also wanted her other half to be a famous hero.

Moreover, her current situation is very difficult. As a half-elf, although her lifespan is not as long as that of a pure-blooded elf, it is still one or two times longer than that of an ordinary person.

This means that it is difficult for her to fall in love with ordinary humans with short lifespans, which is harmful to both of them.

But pure-blooded elves often look down on half-elves, which leads to the fact that although she looks very dissolute, she has not found love yet.

Tina smiled a little embarrassedly.

She knew that Levi couldn’t have only one woman, because she couldn’t bear the other’s terrifying physical strength alone. In private, those Sisters Fedde often talked to her about this.

So she actually agreed that the more women Levi had, the better. As long as Levi treated her well, she would be satisfied.

The drow elf Heather was eating melon seeds on the side and did not join in the conversation. She just rolled her eyes around, and no one knew what she was thinking about.

Uh~Huh~
The door was pushed open again, and the silver dragon girl with two dragon horns on her head walked in from the door, yawning sleepily. She sat down on the chair and realized something was wrong. Why were there so many people today?

“Hey, Levi, you’re back?” She became a little more alert and looked at the lord in surprise.

“What’s wrong with you? You look like you haven’t slept for half a year?” Levi is not blind, so he can naturally see that Sophia is in an abnormal condition.

After all, with Julong’s physique, let alone staying up late, he wouldn’t be this sleepy even if he didn’t sleep for a month or two.

“Hey, it’s not a big deal. I should be falling asleep soon.” Sophia waved her little hand, looking like she shouldn’t worry too much.

Ai Xilu looked at the girl curiously, who was so beautiful that even the bright moon was ashamed to show her face. Is this the dragon that was contracted with Lord Levi? She looked so weak.

“How long will I sleep?” Levi frowned. He hadn’t really considered this.

Dragons do need to sleep, and after each sleep their size and strength will increase significantly.

This period is also their most vulnerable stage, and they usually look for safe and hidden nests to serve as sleeping places.

“I’m afraid it will take a long time this time, maybe a few months, or maybe a year.” Sophia lay listlessly on the table, not even wanting to eat the food in front of her. She was drowsy: “After this deep sleep, I should be able to advance to the high-level peak.”

For giant dragons, it is easy to reach a higher rank by sleeping, but it takes a little effort to reach a legendary rank. However, silver dragons are all extremely talented, and as long as they live long enough, they can basically become legendary.

“Okay, I will help you build the dragon’s lair where you sleep, don’t worry.” Levi said, touching his chin.

Sophia has been in Highcliff Castle for so long, but there is not even a dragon’s nest. This is not acceptable, after all, this building is a standard feature of dragons.

It is also an effective means of deterring scoundrels.

No matter who comes to Gaoya Castle and sees the huge and luxurious dragon’s nest, they have to weigh their own weight in their hearts.

The more he thought about it, the more Levi felt that building a dragon’s nest was urgent, and the more magnificent and luxurious it was, the better.

They say wonders can ruin a country, but this is clearly a sign of a strong country!
If conditions permit, he would like to build a hundred or eighty dragon nests.

“I don’t have to pay for it, right?” Hearing this, Sophia did not worry about An’s safety. Instead, she covered the small bag around her waist with a vigilant look on her face.

“No need, I will pay for the construction of the Dragon’s Nest.” Levi waved his hand generously. After all, he now has hundreds of thousands of gold grams and is very confident. “But I need your help with a small matter.”

“Okay.” Sophia breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she didn’t talk about money, everything would be fine.

……

With the lord returning to his loyal Highcliff Keep, and the news of the marriage even reaching the ears of the goblin slaves in Highcliff Keep, the entire territory became noticeably more lively.

The people of the territory decorated the entire High Cliff Castle day and night, striving to make it festive. The Fede maids wove exquisite five-colored cloths. It was said that this was the custom of the old people of Fede when they got married.

On the wedding day, thousands of long five-colored cloths will be hung throughout the streets of Gaoyabao, swaying in the wind above the heads of the newlyweds, symbolizing their collective blessings to the newlyweds.

The Fede blacksmiths, in accordance with the lord’s request, collectively practiced the trick of burning iron into molten iron and beating it.

The moment the iron flowers appeared, they were stunned. They never thought that iron, which was associated with fighting and blood, could become so beautiful. Then they felt unstoppable shame. They had been playing with iron all their lives, but in the end they were not as good as a layman.

Gus and the others are at the iron mine now, and Levi doesn’t plan to go there for the time being, so he plans to solve the issue of Sophia’s nest first.

At this moment, he was planning the location to build the dragon’s nest with the Fed craftsmen.

In the end, after discussing for a long time, he and several fifty-year-old men wearing wooden safety helmets could only sigh and watch the scene from the top of the watchtower.

The entire wilderness is an endless plain. The only place with a bit of height is Gaoyabao, a hill less than a hundred feet high.

As we all know, dragon nests are built on high towers or mountain tops. If they were built on the ground, wouldn’t it become a walking dragon, which would definitely be a laughing stock.

However, Gaoya Castle does not meet these two conditions. There are high mountains in the Cass Mountains, but they are too far away from Gaoya Castle and are not within consideration.

The best solution finally agreed upon by the few people was to use huge stones to build a platform that rises from the ground, and then build on it.

But in this case, not to mention how much manpower and material resources would be spent, just to build this platform that is slightly higher than the hill at your feet, the starting time would be one or two years, and that’s if everything goes well.

Levi took off the simple safety helmet painted white on his head and scratched his hair in distress.

But the dragon’s nest is still indispensable.

“Sir, why don’t we build a temporary one for Her Highness Sophia to use first, and then slowly build the planned dragon’s nest.” A fat Fed craftsman suggested.

Any project involving such a huge scale cannot be completed overnight.

“Alas, this is all we can do for now.” The lord could only nod helplessly.

“Father, what are you discussing?”

At this moment, Buji came galloping from a distance riding on Beifeng. He grabbed two tufts of dog hair tightly with his two little hands to prevent himself from being thrown away, and his face was full of excitement.

For some reason, this little guy has been very wild since waking up from his deep sleep. He often takes Beifeng with him to run happily on the snowy fields.

Considering that one was a high-level magical beast and the other had an elemental power that was almost reaching epic levels, they were not something that an ordinary punk could mess with. The lord did not care much about it, but just sighed and said that girls cannot be kept at bay, which made Tina cover her mouth and laugh secretly.

Levi caught the flying Buji with his hand and flicked his forehead gently: “You ran out to play again, didn’t you? Have you finished the homework that Leighton gave you today?”

As a lord who is well aware of the importance of nine years of compulsory education in his previous life, he does not want to have a bunch of illiterate people in High Cliff Castle who cannot read a single word. However, it is now more difficult to get the orcs to learn than to stop them from killing people.

Levi simply focused his attention on the trumpet, and asked Leighton, the earth elf who had undergone further training and was knowledgeable, to act as the teacher. Two hours of classes were held every day in the hall specially built in High Cliff Castle. All the children of the residents in the entire territory, whether they were orcs or centaurs, had to join in the studies.

Levi did not require them all to become scholars with extensive knowledge. It was enough for them to be literate, able to do arithmetic, and understand the thickness of history, inheritance, honor, and the concepts of the country.

After the people of Gaoyabao understood the importance of learning, they officially opened schools and continued to develop.

Now Gaoya Castle is like a train that has just stepped onto the track, and everything has to be done step by step.

“Father’s homework is too simple. I have finished it long ago!” Buji covered her forehead and pouted her lips. Her pitiful look softened the lord’s heart. In order to coax her, he briefly told her what they had discussed just now.

What the lord didn’t expect was that the other party patted his chest and said confidently: “Father, I can help you build a platform!”

“Really? Our little Buji is so amazing!” The lord obviously didn’t believe it in his heart, but he pretended to believe it on his face.

The few old Feders nearby turned their faces away and almost laughed out loud. The appearance of their lord was very different from usual, it was as if he had seen the dead. Poor old guys were so uncomfortable that they could only cough dryly, as if they were suffering from asthma collectively.

“Huh, this is the seed of the Mandragora vine I found in the Cass Mountains. It can grow to be several hundred miles tall.” Bu Ji obviously knew that Levi didn’t believe her, so she rummaged through the small Xiuzhen bag that Tina had embroidered specifically for her. She soon found a seed as big as her palm and spread it in her palm.
