Chapter 1899 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 stood up suddenly. The heavy long table was shaken twice by him, and the plates and dishes on the table clinked loudly.

Aunt Eileen, on the other hand, forgot about coughing for a while. She opened her hazy eyes and looked tremblingly in Gretel's direction.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard I looked, I could only see two blurry figures. I couldn't even see the man and woman clearly. Fortunately, she is not deaf yet, and she can vaguely hear the familiar voices calling her, some of which sound like the voices of the children she cares about...

"Little Grete?"

Beside her, her husband, who had been with her for many years, was panting. The sound made her inexplicably worried that her husband would be unable to breathe and fall over...

"Aunt Eileen, it's me!"

The clear, familiar voice answered. Passing through the noisy hall and 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. Auntie's aging fingers grasped him hard, but they could no longer dig into the back of his hand, nor could they cause him any 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 her 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. Quickly wave your hand, ask someone to bring the seats, dishes, and food again:

"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 Gretel?

Is that "Little Grete"?

Mage 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——

An 18th-level archmage is probably a being that is only slightly weaker than a god, right?

But one thing they knew was that since Master Nordmark returned to Nevis, the city owner had united with the Mage Tower to protect his residence. Everyone in Heartland City has seen that house and that monument.

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 do you look so young...is it really him? And the girl next to me... we were here together last time. Why does she look like she's only a teenager?

Gretel completely turned a deaf ear to these discussions and did not listen carefully to a word. With a smile on his face, he stretched out his hand gently, and small bunches 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 as much monster meat, magic plant fruits, and alchemy potions as he wants, and whatever grade he wants. But why can’t we feed it directly to the elderly——

The two old men are both old, so if they are weak and need not be replenished, something will happen immediately if they eat the meat of high-level magic beasts.

On the other hand, the berries produced by the magic berry technique have a mild texture and replenish vitality. It is beneficial for the elderly and young children to eat them. Take care of yourself first. After you take good care of yourself, you can use many treatments.

"Is this...is this expensive?" Aunt Eileen hesitated, looking at Gretel and then at her little granddaughter who was rubbing her chest just a few seats away. Grete turned back and smiled, then summoned a bunch of berries and gently pushed them 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 as much as you want. Don't keep this for a long time. There are still children here..."

The two old men began to eat hesitantly. The sweet divine berries melt in your mouth, and the juice is luscious and refreshing. With a smile on her face, Gretel ate the bread and vegetable soup common in farmers' homes, and carefully observed the two old people:

Aunt Eileen has lost a lot of weight. The skin on the 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. It is also easy for them to 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, which reduces her intake and leads to malnutrition.

Even if the conditions at home have improved and there is white bread on the table instead of black bread mixed with sawdust and stones, it still cannot change the problem of malnutrition.

My eyes were cloudy, probably a cataract could not escape, but it was not to the point of complete loss of vision. As for other diseases, they should be checked 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 Grete, how long will you stay here?"

It seemed like a long time, and it seemed like only a short while later, the food on the table was cleared. The old woman stood up tremblingly, still staring at Gretel:

"I'm going to stay for a while, Aunt Eileen. - Don't be busy! I brought a house back, and the mage has a mage mansion for you to live in!"

Grete quickly went up to help her. Step by step, he helped her back to the living room and carefully helped her sit down. Spread your palms and gently cover her eyes:

"Aunt Eileen, close your eyes..."

Warm magical aura seeped out from his palms. This time he advanced, and the [Organ Regeneration Technique] he had just comprehended 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!"
