Chapter 1892 Little Gretel, how long will you stay when you come back this time?
On the rammed earth platform, the two old men suddenly stood up in shock.
With the agility that had disappeared for many years, Uncle Karen pressed the table and suddenly stood up. The heavy long table actually shook twice, and the plates and dishes on the table clinked and made a loud noise.
Aunt Eileen, on the other hand, forgot about coughing for a while, opened her hazy eyes, and looked tremblingly in Gretel's direction.
It's a pity that no matter how hard you look, you can only see two blurry figures, and you can't even see the man and woman clearly. Fortunately, you are not deaf yet, and you can vaguely hear the familiar voice calling her, and some of them seem to be those she cares about.
The voice of a child…
"Little Grete?"
Next to her, her husband, who had been with her for many years, was gasping for air. The sound made her inexplicably worry that her husband would be unable to breathe and fall over...
"Aunt Eileen, it's me!"
That clear, familiar voice answered. Through the noisy hall, through the noisy crowd, a familiar child between a teenager and a young man strode over, and his gentle hands supported her...
"Aunt Eileen, sit down, sit down! - Yes, I'm back. Don't worry, I won't leave or disappear suddenly..."
Grete stood next to the old woman and comforted her repeatedly. Her aunt's aging fingers grasped him hard, but they could no longer sink into the back of his hand and could not make him feel pain.
The only thing that gave Grete some comfort was that the old man's palms and fingers were no longer as dry and cracked as in his memory. It seemed that in the past few years, she had done less work and was less likely to wash clothes with cold water herself...
"Little Gretel...it's really Little Gretel!" After a while, Aunt Eileen finally recovered from her excitement. She quickly waved her hand, asked someone to carry the chair, bring the dishes, and bring the food back:
"Look at me, I forgot to let you sit down to eat! You must be hungry after coming all the way here, right? And this girl..."
Her dim eyes looked at Cerela, and saw that brilliant silver hair and beautiful face, and more joy emerged in every wrinkle:
"That's the one who came with you last time, right? Her name is... Serila? She's called Serila, right? Come on, come on, sit down quickly, there's nothing good to eat in the countryside, don't dislike it..."
Cerela stood quietly next to Gretel with a smile on her face, letting Aunt Eileen nag while placing food in front of her.
The way this old woman cares about Gretel and even herself is really very comforting...
After a while of noise, Gretel quickly sat down next to Aunt Eileen, eating and answering Aunt Eileen's endless questions.
The tenant farmers, hired workers, and even the children and grandchildren accompanying Captain Cullen in the hall were whispering to each other and kept whispering:
Little Grete?
Is that "Little Grete"?
Wizard Gret Nordmark?
It is said that that one has now become an 18th-level archmage - the villagers and tenants here do not know how powerful the 18th-level archmage is, they only know that the strongest one in the area is only level 9 -
The level 18 Archmage is probably a being that is only slightly weaker than the gods, right?
But one thing they knew: since Master Nordmark returned to Nevis, the city lord has united with the Wizard Tower to protect his residence. That house, that monument, and everyone in Heartland City
seen.
Master Karen also received special preferential treatment from the city lord because of his relationship with Master Nordmark.
Decades ago, after that man came back for the first time, Lord Karen was given this manor, and Lord Edward and Lord Raymond also received resources and successfully became knights!
it's him?
Is he back?
Why does he look so young... Is it really him? And the girl next to him... we were here together last time. Why does she look like she is only in her teens?
Grete completely turned a deaf ear to these discussions and did not listen to a single word seriously. With a smile on his face, he gently stretched out his hand, and a small bunch of berries fell out of thin air into the bowls of Aunt Eileen and Uncle Karen:
"Here, eat some of this. Don't be anxious, eat slowly, it's good for your body..."
He can have all kinds of monster meat, magic plant fruits, and alchemy potions as much as he wants, and whatever grade he wants. But he can’t give them to the elderly directly——
The two old men are both very old. As the saying goes, there is no need to replenish the weak. If you eat the meat of high-level magic beasts, you will get into trouble immediately.
On the other hand, the berries produced by the magic berry technique are mild in texture and can replenish vitality. They are beneficial to the elderly and young children. They need to be nursed back to health first. After they are nursed back to health, many treatments can be used.
"Is this...is this expensive?" Aunt Eileen hesitated and looked at Grete, then at her little granddaughter who was rubbing her chest just a few seats away. Gretel turned back and smiled, and summoned a bunch of berries.
Son, gently push to the little girl:
"It's nothing. It's a first-level magic. I will use it before I leave Heartland City for the first time. You can eat it as much as you want. You can't keep this for a long time. There are still children here..."
The two old men began to eat hesitantly. The sweet magic berries melted in the mouth, and the juice was luscious, refreshing. Gretel smiled on his face, eating bread and vegetable soup that are common in farmers, and carefully observed the two of them.
elder:
Aunt Eileen has lost a lot of weight. The skin on her hands and face is so loose that it almost sticks to the bones.
This is not just a matter of "getting old and losing weight". Old people are too thin and have muscle atrophy, which makes them prone to falls and fractures. They also easily do not have enough reserves when a serious illness strikes, making them unable to withstand it.
She doesn't look very good. Looking at the few teeth left in her mouth, you can probably imagine that she has difficulty chewing food, resulting in reduced intake and resulting in malnutrition.
Even if the conditions at home have improved, white bread on the table instead of black bread mixed with sawdust and pebbles still cannot change the problem of malnutrition.
If your eyes are cloudy, a cataract may not be able to escape, but it has not reached the point of complete loss of vision. As for other diseases, it is necessary to check slowly.
And Uncle Karen...Uncle Karen's physique is much stronger than Aunt Eileen, but he also suffered several injuries when he was young...
Especially when he just traveled through time, he managed to treat a ruptured liver injury. He barely managed to heal the injury, but he couldn't make up for the lost energy...
I have to stay here for a while and give them a good adjustment...
"Little Gretel, how long will you stay here?"
It seemed like a long time passed, and it seemed that only a short moment passed. The food on the table was cleared. The old woman stood up tremblingly, still staring at Grete:
"I'm going to stay for a while, Aunt Eileen. Don't be busy! I brought a house back. The mage has a mage mansion where you can live!"
Grete hurriedly went up to help her. Following each step, he helped her back to the living room, carefully helped her sit down. He spread his palms and gently covered her eyes:
"Aunt Eileen, close your eyes..."
Warm magical aura seeped out from his palm. This time, the newly learned [Organ Regeneration Technique] was released quietly.
The cells engulfed themselves and metabolized rapidly. When the palm was removed, the old woman's dim eyes had become clear.
"Little Grete... I can see you clearly! I can see you clearly! Little Gretel, you have grown so much this time when you come back!"
