"Ryan, Hiss Mentor, I'm sorry to keep you waiting!" Nebula scratched his head as he led the way, apologizing sincerely to Ryan and Heath.

Heath and Ryan both nodded in understanding, no matter who they are, they will have relatives and friends, and it is normal to delay a little time for them.

Nebula plans to say hello to the neighbors and some friends nearby, and after a day's rest, he will leave for Toy City the next day.

However, this time, instead of returning to Sky City and then taking a boat, Nebula went to Toy City by another way, starting from the underground passage of Babel Tower.

After a short while, Nebula and the others arrived at the outer village of Ice and Snow Village, the home where Nebula had lived for five years.

It is a two-story cabin that was made according to the Western-style design of the Earth Defense Headquarters. The four symmetrical lily windows upstairs and downstairs and the large floor-to-ceiling glass in the center of the second floor make the whole cottage full of beautiful atmosphere, and the cabin looks particularly beautiful under the sunlight attracted by the magic array.

There was a clearing in front of the cabin, and from the humanoid stumps on the clearing, it was supposed to be a training ground.

Xingyun watched all this with nostalgia, and reached out to caress the humanoid stumps that were full of traces, as if the practice of swordsmanship with his brother happened yesterday

Ryan was very unhappy, although he also saw that the cabin had been carefully built, but the cabin was a wooden house after all, and it was not at all comparable to a mansion made of magical metal. He couldn't imagine that Nebula, as the young master of the Lachett family, would live in such a remote and humble place!!

Ryan didn't understand his mother's behavior and his father's behavior of turning a blind eye, and after seeing Nebula living in such a simple and cold cabin, Ryan made a deep note in his heart.

Nebula silently walked to the door of the cabin, and found a copper key under a pot of withered ice spirit flowers in the lower right corner of the door, and used it to open the door.

Seeing Hiss and Ryan stunned behind them, Nebula explained, "On our side, the key is usually placed in a place that can be found very easily, after all, there is nothing valuable in the outer village of Ice Village for thieves to steal. ”

Xinas knew about it the last time she was here, so she didn't feel much when she saw it again. Ryan expressed a deep understanding of what Nebula said, if the frozen snow region seemed to him to be a remote and backward countryside, then the village outside the ice and snow village where Nebula lived was the countryside in the countryside, and there was nothing worth thinking about at all, so it was no wonder that Nebula would put the key under the flower pot in front of the door.

After entering the house, Nebula carried a pile of dry firewood from the firewood pile, and put it in the fireplace, and Nebula skillfully lit the fire with a fire breaker.

Seeing Nebula, dressed in a luxurious magic robe, skillfully doing the work done by these servants and subordinates, Sinas couldn't help but sigh: If Nebula hadn't met Michal, if Nebula hadn't had magical talent, I'm afraid he would still be an ordinary peasant boy!

Ryan couldn't help but feel guilty about Nebula when he saw this scene, Nebula should have been able to be properly cared for by the servants since he was a child, instead of doing these menial jobs himself, but because of his mother, Nebula lost all this

"Xiao Rui, don't show that expression. I've had a great time in the frozen snow, and if it weren't for the testing of my magical talents, I might have stayed here for the rest of my life. Although I don't have a mother or father, I have a good brother who likes me and loves me, and I'm very content. So don't blame yourself for what has happened, let it pass! And I'm really happy to have a brother like you! Nebula gently stroked Ryan's head through the Red Devil Dao Hat and said with a smile to Ryan.

Ryan nodded at Nebula with red eyes and said, "I'm also very happy to have a brother like you." After saying that, he turned his head as if he was shy, and quietly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes where Xingyun couldn't see.

Shinas sat down on the creaking wooden chair in front of the fireplace, and read a book by the firelight.

She waved her hand at Nebula and said, "Nebula, if there's anything going on, you two can go!" I'm going to read a little more here for a while, and the room I slept in should be on the second floor, right!? Just remember to call me before you go. ”

Nebula touched his nose in embarrassment, Nebula was already very upset to let Hiss Mentor, who was an ordinary person, come to such a cold place, even if Hiss Mentor didn't say it, Nebula didn't plan to let Hiss Mentor go with him to visit his friends.

Taking advantage of the daylight, Nebula first went up to the second floor to clean his brother's room, and then his own room on the first floor.

Since the room hasn't been lived in for half a year, it should have been covered with dust a long time ago.

Hey!? What's the matter, there's not a speck of dust in the house!! Did someone help clean it up!?

I should have noticed that the tables, chairs, benches, fireplaces, and bookshelves in the living room had been visibly cleaned!

Who the hell is it?

Could it be Aunt Demy and Milia!?

Right! It's definitely them!! Only the warm-hearted Aunt Dimi and Milia, who are very close to her, would do this.

Thinking that it was Aunt Dimy and Sister Milia from the next-door neighbor who helped clean his house, Xingyun was very moved, he didn't expect that he had been away from his brother for more than half a year, and there would be people who would think about him.

Nebula said a word to Shinas and ran out of the house with Ryan. He wanted to hurry up with his relatives and friends who had been caring for him

★?????????????????? ★

Nebula and Ryan walked cautiously on the slippery snow, and Nebula forgot to buy snowshoes from Store Manager Scott when he was at the Erinus Weapons Shop, which was a good thing that could resist slipping on snow and ice.

Almost all adventurers who come to the frozen snow region will buy a pair of snowshoes that suit them.

However, Nebula and Ryan have teleportation, although it may be a bit extravagant to use teleportation to hurry, but after a long journey, Ryan's physical strength is close to the limit, if it weren't for the bottle of mixed potion handed by Nebula, I'm afraid Ryan would have been unable to support it, so it is more appropriate for Ryan to use teleportation to hurry.

"Boom! Boom! Boom" Nebula couldn't wait to knock lightly on the door of Aunt Dimy's house with his hand.

After a while, a little girl about ten years old dressed in a pink princess dress cautiously opened a crack in the door, and she asked the people outside the door through the crack, "May I ask if the two magicians have come to find my mother?" She's gone to the bazaar to sell something, so please come back later! ”

It seems that little girls are very alert, and this is almost always the case with women who are home alone.

Seeing that the little girl was about to close the door and close the door, Xingyun hurriedly stuck the crack in the door with his feet and hands, and said anxiously to the little girl: "Milia! It's me! I'm Nebula! It's the kid from the Glaar family next door! ”

It may be that Nebula's voice sounded familiar, and the little girl did not continue to close the door hard, but said to Nebula after hesitating for a while: "Are you really Xiaoxing!?" Then as long as you take out the bow I gave you and show it to me, I will believe you! ”

Nebula's blue warlock hat, blue magic robe and other magical equipment may have covered Nebula's face and physical features, and now Nebula's voice is also very different from the cowardly Nebula's voice more than half a year ago, Milia couldn't recognize Nebula who she hadn't seen for more than half a year after meeting Nebula, so she could only ask Nebula to show the gift she gave Nebula to prove Nebula's identity.

Upon hearing Milia's request, Nebula froze for a moment.

Worst!! The bow has been given to the cat Naraku, what should I do?

Seeing that Nebula couldn't take out the bow for a long time, Milia immediately forcibly pulled Nebula's hand stuck in the crack of the door and kicked out the foot that was stuck in the crack of the door.

"Bang!" The door was slammed shut by Milia, and if Nebula hadn't taken a step back in time, Nebula's nose would have been smashed by the door.

Nebula touched his nose and smiled awkwardly at Ryan, who was clasping his hands on the side, and then let out a long sigh, it was obvious that Milia's sister's unkindness made Nebula very disappointed.

"Oops! What are the two magicians doing at my doorstep? Suddenly, there was a very characteristic hoarse female voice from behind.

Xingyun turned his head to look, and a middle-aged woman with a basket in her hand looked at herself and Ryan in surprise, and Xingyun recognized it at a glance, this is Aunt Dimy, who often takes care of herself!

Probably afraid that Aunt Dimi would not recognize him, Xingyun specially took off his blue warlock hat and said to Aunt Dimy: "Aunt Dimy, it's me!" I'm Xiaoxing!! Long time no see! ”

When Aunt Dimi saw Xingyun's appearance, she was so shocked that even the basket in her hand fell to the ground.

She couldn't have imagined that one of the two magicians she was wondering about was actually a little naughty ghost she watched grow up - Nebula!!

After being stunned for a while, Aunt Dimi happily took Xingyun's hand and asked this and that, as if she wanted to ask everything about Xingyun in the past six months.

Faced with Aunt Dimy's question, Xingyun answered seriously, even though he felt a little bored.

After a while, after a cold wind blew, Aunt Dimi tightened the cotton clothes on her body before she reacted, this is at the door of the house.

It was extremely rude to chat with guests at the door, and Aunt Dimi apologized to Nebula again and again, and when she saw that Nebula really didn't care about these situations, she invited Nebula and Ryan to sit at home very warmly.

Milia in the house was happy to see her adoptive mother return, but when she saw Nebula taking off her blue warlock hat, she snorted and turned away.

Nebula knew that Miria might have recognized herself, but she couldn't take out the bow she gave her, so she might be throwing a tantrum with herself!

Dimi is very dissatisfied with Milia's attitude, you must know that Nebula is a magician now, if Milia can marry a magician as a wife, then Milia and herself can move to a bigger and better place to live.

Seeing Aunt Dimy's angry face ready to scold Milia, Nebula hurriedly stopped her.

When Dimi heard Nebula's stop, he immediately silenced and looked at Nebula with a very gentle expression, which made Nebula feel a little furious.

Nebula is very strange, usually when Milia is scolded, there will always be someone who does something wrong, so he often follows Milia and is severely criticized by Aunt Dimi, but this time

It was as if something had changed, as if an invisible wall separated Nebula from Aunt Demy, and the distance seemed to be very short, but it could never be crossed

In the end, Nebula still said sorry to Miria, after all, the bow was a gift from Milia, and he gave it to Naraku without Miria's consent.

After Nebula's explanation, Miria expressed her willingness to forgive Nebula, but only if the next time Nebula returned to the Frozen Snow Land, she would take her to Sky City to see the lovely Naraku.

Perhaps still a child, Miria didn't know the difference between a mage and an ordinary person to dare to ask Nebula like this, and if Miria was more sensible, she might not have done it.

Although the difference in identity dooms Milia and Nebula to have no more intimate connection, Nebula will always treat Milia as her own sister, and the good memories and emotions of her childhood will not disappear so easily, and Nebula will never forget the days of living in the Ice Village
