Chapter 602: Meeting the Parents

It was getting dark, and towards evening, the four Gales finally found the home of Miranda's parents after wandering around the old city for a long time.

An old-looking two-story building was hidden in a narrow alley that only allowed two people to pass side by side.

Most of the buildings in the old city of the royal capital are like this. They have been expanded as much as possible to accommodate the increasing number of family members. Many locals of the royal capital are the fourth and fifth generations. Crowded in the same house, living together.

Therefore, the public passages left for people to walk have become much narrower, making the intervals between houses seem a bit narrow and cramped.

The exterior of the house where Miranda's parents live is very warmly decorated.

A garland made of wheat ears and flowers hangs on the door. This is a souvenir of the harvest festival that just ended. People hang garlands on the door to pray to the God of Harvest for blessings and to bless the fields with good weather in the coming year. The land is fertile.

Above it is a wooden door plate fastened with iron nails, with a few lines of beautiful cursive characters writing the name and address of the owner of the house:

"Old Town, No. 3 Matov Lane, Warren Family."

"Vance Warren \u0026 Vicky Tofka Warren."

"Miranda Warren."

Gale smiled knowingly when he saw the slightly familiar handwriting on the house number.

This was written by Miranda herself when she was a child. She also outlined it with beautiful patterns and drew two hearts next to it.

Although he had confirmed with Miranda in advance that the other party's parents were aware of his existence and had expressed their approval and welcome, which was a reassurance in advance, Gale was still a little nervous when he actually stood in front of Miranda's house.

He walked forward and knocked on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

…

A response came quickly from within the room.

"Hello, who is this?"

It was a female voice that sounded very gentle, and it was somewhat similar to Miranda's voice.

Gale subconsciously said nervously: "Gale Franklin."

"I'm Miranda's girlfriend, uh! That's not right! Miranda is my boyfriend...that's not right either! That! I mean-"

Before he could finish speaking, the door to the room had been opened from inside.

A middle-aged woman whose face was 80% similar to Miranda Warren had a friendly smile on her face and enthusiastically gave Gale a big hug.

"Ah! Boy, I know you!"

"I'm Miranda's mother. You can call me Vicky, or Aunt Vicky."

"Welcome! Come in with your friends! We have been waiting for you for a long time!"

The other party was wearing a set of off-white home clothes to facilitate daily housework. His lower body was wrapped in an apron, and his feet were wearing light yellow cloth shoes.

Somehow.

After being held in Vicky Warren's arms, Gale's original nervousness disappeared instantly, and a feeling of relaxation emerged spontaneously.

He had only felt this feeling before when he was at home.

"Gail, you guys must be hungry all the way here. I made some pumpkin pie, cheese, and cut ham. You must try it!"

The gentle Vicky naturally held Gale's hand, while greeting Reina, Brandon and Dolan, and led them towards the house.

"I heard yesterday that you would be here soon. It was almost dark and I didn't see you. I was thinking that maybe I should let Vance go out and look for you."

"The roads in the old city are not easy to find, right? Our place is not very eye-catching."

Gale shook his head hurriedly: "Fortunately, it's not that difficult. Miranda told me the specific location in advance."

Of course, he would not admit that the four of them stayed here all afternoon in order to fight for that tone and refused to ask the locals in the old city for directions.

"Originally, she and I were supposed to come together, but Miranda received an invitation from His Majesty the King and is conducting etiquette training these two days."

"Tomorrow morning we can go to the Avenue of Glory to watch the ceremony together, and she will enter the palace from there."

When it comes to the king, Vicki's chatter box is opened:

"Oh! Speaking of which, yesterday was so unbelievable."

"It's obviously such an ordinary and ordinary day."

“Three palace attendants knocked on the door outside in the afternoon, when I was still washing dirty clothes, and they told me that my daughter had made great contributions to the kingdom, and she would become a hero personally commended by the king. !”

"Can you imagine?"

"The palace attendants were standing outside like that. They saluted me, congratulated me, and said that Miss Warren asked them to tell me that you will arrive in the royal capital today."

"The news spread too fast. Last night, everyone in the old city seemed to know that Miranda was going to be awarded and canonized by the king. Everyone who saw Vance and I would congratulate us with envy."

"God of Glory, I thought Mimi would become confused and lose direction after leaving the Crusaders, and it would take some time to figure out how to go about her next life."

As Vicky spoke, she couldn't help but kiss Gail's side of the face.

"Mimi can find her goal so quickly. I must thank you for your help and care!"

"I heard Mimi say it in her letter. When she didn't know what to do, it was you who brought her the most important guidance and companionship."

Gale's face suddenly turned red.

Miranda had written several letters to her family before, but Gale didn't know the specific contents of the letters at the time.

But seeing Vicky's reaction, he could already guess it.

Gale shyly gestured to Brandon, who immediately understood and took out a gift box tied with a ribbon from the package he was carrying.

"That... I prepared a gift for you, a little thought, I hope you will like it."

Vicky took the gift box in surprise, gently untied the ribbon, and saw the gift inside:

A palm-high white stone statue of the God of Radiance.

In the room illuminated by candles and oil lamps, the statue was emitting a bright and soft light.

This gift was made by a dwarf craftsman. When they learned that they were going to the capital, Gale and others had less than an afternoon to prepare. There was no time to choose a more suitable gift, so they simply used the relationship of Stone Castle and intercepted a statue of the God of Radiance that had just been made and was ordered by someone else, and used it as an emergency.

The reason for the glow is that a small amount of fluorite was mixed into the statue.

Gail had learned from Miranda in advance that her parents were devout believers of the God of Radiance.

It was the right thing to give a gift related to Radiance.

As expected.

Vicky screamed in surprise: "Praise Radiance! I love this gift!"

Then she couldn't help but kissed Gail on the face several times.

Her attitude towards Gail and others was completely different from that of the local people in the capital they met in the old city!

Also! I won't go to bed until I finish the fifth update!
