Gai Yi looked at Amy as she came out of the door with surprise on his face. He looked at Amy and then at Daphne, and said in realization, "So you are the half-elf little girl that Daphne often mentions."
"Amy, do you know my grandfather? Why do you call him Grandpa Tiger?" Daphne asked curiously.
"Yes, Daphne, my Daddy and I met Grandpa Tiger when we went out of city. He was wearing a tiger costume, so I called him Grandpa Tiger. I never imagined he was your grandpa! That's amazing!" Amy nodded, her little face full of excitement.
"She's the amazing little mage Grandpa told you about before. She roasted a copper-skinned wild boar with a single fireball and even gave you that copper-skinned wild boar tusk." Gai Yi said with a smile. He had never imagined that the half-elf little girl Daphne mentioned, who hadn't even gone to school, was that genius little mage. The coincidence was truly unexpected.
"Wow, Amy, are you really that amazing? My grandpa said that copper-skinned wild boar was super fierce, with such long and sharp tusks, and you actually burned it to death with just one fireball?" Daphne looked at Amy in astonishment.
"So fierce?" Ignaz, standing to the side, also opened his mouth wide. After a while, he swallowed and subconsciously took a step back, as if he wanted to stay away from Amy.
"Yes, of course, I'm super fierce too." Amy nodded seriously, then a bright smile appeared on her face. She opened her arms and hugged Daphne, laughing as she said, "But that's only towards bad guys. I'm not fierce at all towards my good friends."
"Did Amy... hug me?" Daphne's body stiffened, a mysterious blush rising on her cheeks. She nodded shyly and said, "Mmm... I... I know, Amy is so nice... so cute!"
"Daphne is super cute too." Amy said earnestly, looking at Daphne's face.
"Re…really?" Daphne clutched the hem of her skirt, her face flushed with excitement, and looked up at Gai Yi, saying, "Grandpa, give me the present!"
"Okay." Gai Yi smiled and took a long box from his arms, handing it to Daphne.
"Amy, this is a gift for you." Daphne held out a long box to Amy with both hands, her expression expectant.
"What is this? Can I open it and see?" Amy asked, hugging the long box, her face full of curiosity.
"I want to know too." Ignaz, who was standing nearby, also leaned in, looking curiously at the long, gray box in Amy's hand.
"Of course you can. It's a gift for you. You can look at it as you like." Daphne nodded, looking a little nervous.
Amy carefully untied the ribbon on the box, opened it, and a snow-white magic wand appeared in everyone's sight.
Calling it a magic wand is a bit of a stretch. It's more like a handmade item made from the tusk of a copper-skinned wild boar. The original thick and long tusk has been polished into thin and long shapes, but the surface is a bit rough, and there are two small notches at the bottom. A small purple ribbon is tied at the bottom, and in the middle, in childish black handwriting, it says, "'Daphne gave this to the lovely Amy."
"Wow! What a wonderful magic wand! And it even has my favorite purple ribbon tied on it! I love it so much, thank you, Daphne!" Amy's eyes lit up as she carefully took the magic wand out of the box and held it in her hand, looking at Daphne happily.
"Amy, do you really like it?" Daphne's face lit up with a happy smile and a hint of pink.
Gai Yi smiled slightly. He had spent a lot of time helping Daphne make this magic wand. It was the first time that his hands, which had only ever held swords and knives, had held magic stones and stone carving knives. Although he knew it looked a bit ugly, but he was still quite happy to be recognized.
"If this is a magic wand, why do I think it looks a little ugly?" Ignaz muttered to himself, touching his double chin.
"Ignaz! Are you looking for death?!" Daphne turned to look at Ignaz, instantly transforming into a lioness ready to pounce.
"I was just expressing my opinion." Ignaz said, shrinking back and quietly taking two steps to the side. He valued his life and wanted to stay away from crazy women.
"How could that be? I think it's super pretty, I love it so much! I didn't expect Daphne to remember that I wanted a magic wand, it's really amazing." Amy shook her head, slowly raising the simple magic wand in her right hand. A flame and an ice flame intertwined like two small dragons along the magic wand, one red and one silver weaving together to create a dazzling display of colors. The purple ribbon fluttered in the wind, and the simple magic wand suddenly became dazzling.
"Wow…so beautiful! Amy is so amazing!" Daphne exclaimed, her eyes wide with admiration as she looked at Amy.
"I take back what I just said." Ignaz said, his mouth agape as he watched.
"What a kind and good child." Gai Yi looked at Amy with a smile on his face.
"Thank you, Daphne. I really like the magic wand. It's my first magic wand, and I'll cherish it." Amy carefully placed the magic wand back into the box, smiling as she spoke.
"You're welcome. But it's quite interesting that this magic wand is made from the tusk you gave me." Daphne said with a smile.
"I have a gift for you too. Give me your hand." Ignaz, standing nearby, offered his chubby little hand in a fist to Amy.
"What is it?" Amy asked curiously, extending her little hand.
"You're not allowed to touch Amy's hand!" Daphne warned softly.
Ignaz obediently raised his hand slightly, and after Amy placed her hand under his hand, he loosened his fist. Two things fell into Amy's hand, which were two seeds, one black and one white, flat and round, looking just like black and white Go stones.
"Little Sprout, what are these?" Amy asked curiously, looking at the two seeds in her palm.
"Just two ordinary seeds?" Daphne asked, equally puzzled.
"How could these be just ordinary seeds? These are seeds of Black and White Thorns that I've cultivated for three whole months. White for entwining, black for attacking. When in danger, just throw them on the ground, and they'll take root and grow in just five seconds. They can at least hold off a level one magical beast for five minutes." Ignaz said with some pride, "I'm going to become the most powerful plant controller on the Nolan Continent! Even more powerful than my father!"
