Everyone from Tulip Castle set out—the Count, Lady Mary, Levis, Lvera, Liszt, and Lytton. Only Lady Penelope, feeling unwell, did not go.

"Lucky Liszt, deliver this potted plant for me. Tell that handsome young man Meiopal that my potted plant has given birth to two Fig Bugs."

Before departure, Lady Penelope solemnly told Liszt.

She already knew that her potted fig plant had nurtured a Fig Bug. She now cared for it twice as much and genuinely believed it was a treasure.

"Of course. I believe Cousin will be delighted to receive your potted plant. Perhaps he might obtain an Elf Bug as well." Levis had a servant take the potted plant.

Liszt secretly used Magic Eye to inspect the plant, but found no trace of magic.

Lady Penelope took it as a matter of course. "That depends on whether his luck is good. If he is as deeply favored by Knight's Glory as you are, he will certainly obtain an Elf Bug. If he cannot obtain one, then he can only blame himself for not being favored by Knight's Glory, not blame my potted plant for being insufficiently precious."

Liszt smiled faintly.

At that moment, Lvera walked over. "I can't help but envy you now. Why do you always receive the luck that others never do? I carefully selected Grandmother's potted plants, yet I couldn't see the slightest sign of which one might nurture an Elf Bug. But once they reached your hands, Elf Bugs were born one after another."

"You know, I am favored by Knight's Glory. I am the Son of Glory." He had now learned to shamelessly boast about himself. On Coral Island, being high-profile was not a mistake.

Lvera thought for a moment, then sighed. "The day you become a Count, I won't be surprised."
