The backdrop can also be propped up.

Chapter 102: After reaching a mutual agreement with the crow.

After reaching an agreement with the raven, Borest said to the raven, "I don't recommend that you come to see me often."

“I know you don’t think we’re anything good,” the raven said, flapping its wings. “But don’t worry, when you need us, just raise your wand and call out, and we’ll come right over.”

"Thank you," Borest said with a sigh.

“Remember our agreement, boy,” the raven said, then flew to the window and said, “I need to inform my flock that because I inexplicably have a summoner, they also have one.”

“Okay, I understand,” Borest said. “You don’t need to rush.”

The crow probably didn't hear it, because it had already flapped its wings and flown away.

After putting his two younger sisters to sleep, Borest went to look at the Night Stone that had brought him a group of familiars—his life had taken a very different turn from his original path because of the two outsiders.

Is this difference good or bad?

Borest thought it was pretty good.

The next morning, just like the previous days, Borist took breakfast from downstairs and made purple peony soup.

After breakfast, Borist wanted to take his two sisters, who had also finished breakfast and drinking purple walnut soup, out for a stroll. However, as soon as they stepped out through the side door, the butler stopped the three of them.

"Is there something you need?" Borest asked.

“Young Masters Heikal Lepsner and Heledi Lepsner wish to see you,” the butler replied.

"What are those two doing here?" Lu Renkui immediately became alert.

"Heikal probably came to express his gratitude, since we provided him with a protective shield earlier," the system WQBYRZM analyzed.

"Didn't he already thank me once before?" Lu Renkui asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Maybe she just wanted to make it more formal. But anyway, what's more serious is Heledi! What's she doing here all of a sudden?" System WQBYRZM started flipping through the original text to find out about Heledi's methods of revenge.

Borist remained silent. The Lepsner family was clearly more powerful and influential than the Flor family, and he had to meet these two people today.

“I understand. Please lead the way,” Borist said, thinking that he shouldn’t be the one to start a fight with Heledi as soon as he met her.

The butler led Borest and his two sisters to the reception room reserved for distinguished guests.

Upon entering, Borest saw the two blond, blue-eyed boys and their servants.

After greeting Heikal and Heledi, Borist and his sister took their seats.

As soon as he sat down, "Haikal" announced his presence, saying, "Last time in the audience, I only had time to say thank you to express my gratitude. This time, I brought a gift, and I hope you will accept it."

Borest stared at the beautifully wrapped gift box in front of him, momentarily at a loss for what to do—he had never received a gift from anyone other than his two sisters and Evangeline.

Lu Renkui knew what Borui was thinking at that moment, and she said, "What are you worried about? Since they have already come to give you a gift, just accept it. It would be disrespectful to refuse them if you didn't accept it—unless the gift is too valuable, don't refuse it."

Borest listened and said he understood. He accepted the gift box and planned to open it when he got back to his room.

The gift box was a cuboid, and Bonest glanced at its size and thickness and figured it might be a book.

Hu Xiaohai, inside Haikar's body, saw Borist accept the gift and thought to himself, "It's all settled." He then asked, "You look like you're about to go out. Where are you planning to go?"
