Chapter 404 What A Brilliant Wand!
A surprised expression also appeared on Guy’s face at the sight of Amy. He then looked at Daphne, and came to a sudden realization as he said, “So you’re the little half-elf girl that Daphne’s always talking about.”
“Amy, do you know my grandpa? Why are you calling him Grandpa Tiger?” Daphne asked.
“I do, Daphne. Father and I met Grandpa Tiger when we went out of the city. He was wearing some tiger clothes, so I called him Grandpa Tiger. I didn’t know he’s your grandpa! That’s amazing!” Amy nodded with excitement on her little face.
“She’s the powerful little magic caster that grandpa was telling you about. She roasted a bronze wild boar with a fireball, and gave you the boar’s tusks as a present,” Guy said with a smile. Never would he have thought that the little half-elf girl that Daphne was always talking about was that little prodigy magic caster. What a surprising coincidence.
“Wow, are you that powerful, Amy? Grandpa says bronze wild boars are super fierce, with long and sharp tusks; you killed one with a fireball?” Daphne was shocked as she stared at Amy.
“Are you that fierce?” Ignatsu’s mouth also widened, and he unconsciously backed away half a step as if he wanted to open up some distance between himself and Amy.
“Of course; I’m super fierce!” Amy nodded with a serious look before a vibrant smile appeared on her face, and she gave Daphne a big hug as she said, “But I’m only fierce to baddies. I’m not fierce at all to my friends.”
Did Amy just... hug me? Daphne’s body stiffened, and a faint blush appeared on her little face. She was a little shy as she nodded, and said, “I... I know... Amy is super good to her friends, and super adorable!”
“Daphne is also super adorable,” Amy replied with a serious expression.
“R-really?” Daphne grasped at the hem of her little dress, and her little face was flushed with excitement. She looked up at Guy, and asked, “Grandpa, can you give me the present?”
“Sure.” Guy smiled as he handed a long box to Daphne.
“Amy, this is my present for you.” Daphne offered the long box to Amy with both hands, wearing an expectant look on her face.
“What is it? Can I open it?” Amy was very curious as she held the long box in her arms.
“I also want to know what it is.” Ignatsu also shuffled forward, and surveyed the long gray box in Amy’s hands with curiosity etched on his face.
“Of course you can. This is my present to you, so you can open it whenever you want.” Daphne nodded. Her expression suggested that she was a little nervous.
Amy carefully untied the ribbon around the box before opening it. A snowy white wand was revealed.
It was a little far-fetched to call it a wand. It was more like a simple handmade craft made from the tusk of a bronze wild boar. The thick and long tusk had been polished down to be very thin, but the surface was still a little coarse, and there were even two little holes on the bottom. A purple ribbon was tied around the wand, and there was some slightly messy text inscribed upon it, which read “From Daphne, to the Most Adorable Amy”.
“Wow! What a brilliant wand! And there’s purple ribbon tied around it! I love it! Thank you, Daphne!” Amy’s eyes lit up, and she carefully removed the wand from the box before holding it in her hand with an elated expression.
“Do you really like it, Amy?” Daphne was also overjoyed to hear that, and her blush deepened even further.
A faint smile also appeared on Guy’s face. He had spent a lot of time making this wand with Daphne, and it was his first time working with magic stones and stone carving knives. He knew that the wand was a little ugly, but it still felt good to see his efforts acknowledged.
Ignatsu stroked his double chin, and murmured to himself, “If this is a wand, then why do I feel like it’s a little ugly?”
Daphne turned to Ignatsu, and immediately transformed into a vicious little lioness. “Ignatsu! Do you want to die?!”
“I’m just offering my opinion!” Ignatsu recoiled, and scurried away. He valued his life, so he was going to stay far away from
crazy women.
“That’s not true; I think it’s super beautiful, and I really love it. I didn’t think that you would remember that I wanted a wand. It’s really very good.” Amy shook her head, and she slowly raised the crude wand in her hand. A burst of fire and a burst of icy flames began to revolve around the wand like two miniature dragons. The red and silver flames illuminated the wand with beautiful light, and the ugly wand was transformed into a dazzling work of art.
“So... So beautiful. That’s so impressive, Amy.” Daphne’s eyes widened as she looked at Amy with a reverent expression.
“I take back what I said earlier.” Ignatsu was also staring at the wand with his mouth wide open.
“You’re such a kind little girl.” A smile appeared on Guy’s face as he looked at Amy.
Amy placed the wand gently back into the box, and smiled as she said, “Thank you, Daphne. I really like this wand. This is my first wand, and I’ll be sure to treasure it.”
“You’re welcome. But, when I think about it, it’s quite funny that I’m making you a present from the tusk that you gave me.” Daphne giggled.
“I also have a present for you. Give me your hand.” Ignatsu extended a chubby little clenched fist toward Amy.
“What is it?” Amy was quite curious as she extended her own little hand.
“Don’t you dare touch Amy’s hand!” Daphne warned in a quiet voice.
Ignatsu immediately raised his hand a little so it was above Amy’s hand, and he released his clenched fist, upon which two objects fell into Amy’s hand. They were two flat and smooth seeds, one of which was black, while the other one was white. They looked a little like go stones.
“What’s this, Little Bean Sprout?” Amy was rather perplexed as she looked at the two seeds in her hand.
“Are they just two ordinary seeds?” Daphne was also quite puzzled.
“How could they just be ordinary seeds? These are the black and white thorn seeds that took me three months to breed. White is for binding, while black is for attacking. When you encounter a dangerous situation, you can toss them onto the ground, and they’ll sprout and grow in five seconds. They’ll be able to delay a 1st-tier magic beast for at least five minutes.” Ignatsu was very proud of himself as he said, “I’m going to become the most powerful plant manipulation master among all demons on the Norland Continent! I’m going to be even better than my father!”
