Linley turned to look at his rescue group. That leader, the black-robed elder, and the 'Father' by his side were both extremely strong. Otherwise, the Judicator of the Dark Alliance would not have escaped without a battle.
The black-robed elder seemed to be emitting a cold aura.
“Vice Arbitrator? After so many years, it seemed like the Radiant Church had yet to change its internal structure. This Deputy Arbitrator must be a member of the 'Ecclesiastical Court'. "The Doehring Cowart's voice sounded in Linley's mind. “Comparatively, the 'Father' peer is more powerful. ”
A hermit?
Linley could not help but turn his gaze towards 'Father'.
Wearing clothes made from rough hemp, the barefooted and long-haired old man exuded a simple ancient aura. When this 'Father' looked at Linley, Linley seemed to feel the warmth of the spring breeze.
“Very strong. "Linley thought to herself.
Looking at Linley, a rare smile appeared on the black-robed elder's face. "Linley, why don't you come back with us to the Holy Capital. When you reach the Holy Capital, those organizations will not dare to bother you. ”
The City of Fenlai, the Holy Capital of the Holy Union. The Radiant Church is based in Fenlai City. Both in the open and in the shadows, he possessed incredible latent power. Neither the Dark Alliance nor the Four Great Kingdoms would dare to cause trouble in the Holy Capital.
…
East Fenlai City. In a castle on Greenleaf Road, Linley and Yale sat in the living room discussing the matter of 'Slayers' warblade.
“Third brother, I've sent some people to ask. The clan leader of the Lucas clan was completely unwilling to sell the 'Slaughterer'. Per his words, his clan did not lack for money. "Yale frowned. "I think it might be better if you personally go and visit. But of course, first of all he should know your status. ”
The second greatest genius magus in the history of the Yulan continent, someone who had a great chance of becoming a Saint level Grand Magus of the future, was someone who might even be the clan leader of the Lucas clan, a person who had a great chance of becoming a Saint level Grand Magus of the future, was someone who might be even the clan leader of the Lucas clan, no matter how hard, give it a face.
"Then tonight, I will visit this leader of the Lucas clan. "Linley views the 'Slaughterer' warblade as something that really should be claimed.
How could the ancestral treasures of the clan continue to be outside of the clan? Moreover, restoring it was the old wish of his father and his ancestors.
The words that his father had said to him when Linley first left his home and headed to the Ernst Institute were still heard in Linley's mind.
"Linley's. Remember the centuries-old wishes of the Baruch clan generation. Remember the disgrace of the Baruch clan! ”
“After you graduate, you will at least become a magus of the sixth rank. As long as you work hard, becoming a magus of the seventh rank will not be too difficult. Moreover, you are a double element magus! The two-element magus of the seventh rank would definitely be the main character in the Fenlai Kingdom. In the future, you will definitely have the potential of restoring our ancestral heirlooms. If you do not recover it, even in death, I will not forgive you. ”
… .
"Even in death, I will not forgive you. "His father's words were hammered at Linley's consciousness.
Linley did not dare to forget these words. As long as he had the ability to do so, he would recover the warblade 'Slayers', no matter the cost. It's not just for the clan. It was also for his father.
"Whatever happens, I have to take it back. "Linley's mind has been set.
If soft persuasion does not work, he will take tougher action.
But of course, it would be best if he could regain his ancestral heirloom openly and on board. He will do his best to bring back the current owner.
"Boss. How about you just make me act instead and just take it back. "Bebe suddenly appeared in Linley's mind.
Linley glanced at Bebe, sleeping at Linley's feet. He couldn't help but pat the little cup of Bebe. "Don't make trouble. "Bebe couldn't help but wrinkle his nose. With a hmph, he lay down on Linley's feet and went back to sleep.
At this moment, footsteps could be heard from outside. A blue-robed middle-aged man walked in and bowed. “Youth Master Yale, a Minister of the Kingdom of Fenlai, Mr. Calvin [Ka'li'wen], is outside. He wanted to meet young master Linley. ”
"Calvin's? Who'sis that? ”Yale frowned.
Yale generally did not bother to meet ordinary Royal Ministers.
"Youth Master Yale, recently, haven't you focused on the Lucas clan? Calvin is a member of the Lucas clan as well. "The blue-robed man chuckled. "The current leader of the Lucas clan, in fact, is his uncle. ”
Yale's eyes sparkled. "Hurry, let him in. ”
"Third Brother, it seems like your chances of recovering your clan's ancestral heirloom have just risen. "Yale chuckled at Linley.
In his heart, Linley felt somewhat pleased as well.
Linley was looking towards the door as well. A moment later, a golden-haired man stepped into the room, smiling. Upon seeing Linley and Yale, he immediately bowed politely. "Calvin saluted the young master Linley and Yale. ”
"Calvin, why did you come to meet my brother?" Yale asked frankly.
Calvin did not mind. Smiling, he said, “My visit aim is to serve as a representative of His Majesty. Young master Linley, have you considered serving as the magus of the court for the Kingdom of Fenlai? His Majesty will also be willing to make you envious of the title of Marquis and suitable territory. ”
Linley laughed.
He still remembered the conditions offered by that Cardinal of the Radiant Church; he could choose to serve in any kingdom in the Holy Union, and even receive the rank of a duke. He doesn't have to have any responsibility, just to enjoy life.
"Calvin, I must say, when I was at the Ernst Institute, a Cardinal of the Radiant Church personally came to invite my brother to join the Radiant Church, he said, and the conditions he offered were also much higher!" Yale grinned.
Calvin chuckled and continued, “The conditions are always negotiable. His Majesty only wishes that Linley could remain within our Fenlai Kingdom. ”
After all, each of the six kingdoms in the Holy Union had a different amount of power. If the Fenlai Kingdom gained Linley's support, then in the future, Fenlai's status within the Holy Union would be even more solid.
Anyways…
The Radiant Church had the authority to overthrow any king within the Holy Union, or even exterminate an entire royal clan! The power of the Church far exceeded the power of the nobles.
"Calvin. ”
Linley finally spoke.
Calvin immediately bowed slightly, seemingly listening very carefully.
"You belong to the Lucas clan, right?" Linley immediately went to the main topic for her.
Calvin nodded. With a hint of pride on her face, she said, “True. The clan leader is my uncle. ”
"I belong to the Baruch clan. "Linley looked at Calvin. “An ancestral heirloom of my Baruch clan, known as the warblade, 'Slaughterer', has been missing from my clan for centuries now. Right now, I hope to recover this warblade, 'Slaughterer'. Based on what I know, the heirloom of my current clan ancestor lives with your Lucas clan. ”
After saying these words, Linley no longer spoke.
Calvin could only frown.
"The Warblade 'Slaughterer', the weapon of the original Dragonblood Warrior?" Calvin looked at Linley.
Calvin was silent for a while, then said, "Young master Linley, honestly speaking, the person with the most authority in the clan is my uncle, but my uncle continues his years. He was not responsible for most of the clan affairs. His biggest hobby is being a collector. This warblade, the 'Slaughterer', was an item he often exhibited to visitors. This treasure worth nearly a million gold coins is the most valuable item in our clan collection as well. It would be fair to say my uncle valued this item as much as his life. To make him give up .. This will be difficult. ”
Linley frowned.
'The 'Slaughterer' warblade was originally sold for only 180,000 gold coins. Although due to inflation, the value of gold centuries ago was much more than it is now, at most the selling price would be equivalent to almost 400,000 today. But Calvin had just declared his worth almost a million gold coins.
From the looks of …
'Aib for the family' who sold the warblade, has sold it too cheap.
"Calvin. This warlord, the 'Slaughterer', after all my clan's ancestral heirlooms, was passed down over five thousand years. You can imagine the importance of my clan's place on it. To outsiders, it might just be a collectible item, but to my clan, losing this heirloom is an insult. "Linley's face was dark and forbidding as he spoke.
“I really must remove this stain from the honor of our clan. In order to recover this warblade, 'Slaughterer', I am willing to pay whatever the price. Do you understand what I'm saying? "Linley looked at Calvin.
Calvin felt that things were going in the wrong direction.
He had also heard about the history of the Baruch clan. After all, his clan had several items related to the Baruch clan.
For a clan that once dominated the entire Yulan continent, the importance of their ancestral heirloom could be imagined. In the past, the Baruch clan was too weak and could be ignored with impunity. But now, this Linley had appeared out of nowhere .. Forget about Linley's future, even now Linley wouldn't find it too difficult to deal with their clan.
If Linley said just a few words to the Radiant Church, indicating that he wanted to recover the 'Slayers' to clean up the shameful stains on his clan, it was likely that the Lucas family would have to obediently hand him over.
But once the Radiant Church gets involved in this matter, things will become even more complicated for everyone involved.
"I see your point, young master Linley. "Calvin's getting a little nervous.
Smiling, Linley looked at Calvin. "I hope the Lucas clan can understand the difficult position I am in. As a descendant of the clan, I have no choice here. Calvin, why don't you go back and have a chat with your uncle. Tonight, I will personally pay a visit to your clan. ”
"Our Lucas Clan would be delighted to welcome the arrival of young master Linley. "Calvin has started to mentally map out the way he persuaded his stubborn uncle.
Watching Calvin leave, Linley felt a slight edge.
Although he did not take any official position, based solely on his fame, with a few words, he was able to disturb the mind of the Royal Minister. This was all because of his status, and his status came from his personal strength.
…
That night too.
The welcoming room of the Lucas clan was very nicely decorated, and the ten people inside were, without a doubt, ten very important people within the Kingdom of Fenlai. The lowest rank among them was Count. And the reason they were all here, was to meet with Linley.
Linley, the newest star of the Kingdom of Fenlai.
Although Linley was only seventeen, and although Linley had yet to receive a noble letter, even the Duke did not dare to dare to treat him lightly.
After all, no matter how high their stations were, they were only able to display their strength within the Fenlai Kingdom. But Linley? This was a person who was highly valued by the Four Great Kingdoms and the two major alliances. Perhaps decades from now, Linley would become a Cardinal of the Radiant Church, with a status higher than even their king.
It was best for them to establish a good relationship with Linley while he was still a relatively low rank. And establishing a good relationship with Linley was naturally an important matter.
Among those ten people, only the clan leader of the Lucas clan, Marquis Jebs, [Je'bu], felt somewhat uneasy. He had been passionate for many years, and had no other hobbies. The thing he liked the most was the weapon from the first Dragonblood Warrior. It was his pride and joy.
But ... the descendants of this weapon clan came to take away their treasures.
"Mr . Linley, please come in. ”
"Mr . Yale, please come in. ”
The voices of the servants outside could be heard. Instantly, all of the ten people in the room turned around to smile at the door. Even the unhappy Marquis Jebs squeezed a smile on his face.
This was the first time Linley had been summoned as 'Mr.', a title he was somewhat unfamiliar with. He saw an old man with shiny silver hair approaching him, beaming as he said very politely, "It is very nice to welcome Linley and Yale to my clan home. As the leader of this clan, I, Jebs, feel very flattered. ”
Linley could not help but show a slight smile on his face.
Looks like there's a chance!
