The Sovereign Dragon Ring

Episode 112's

Both sides of the auction hall were filled with wealthy nobles. The noble groups were separated into two sides to open a corridor for the departure of the Cardinals Guillermo and Lampson from the Radiant Church, King Clayde of Fenlai, Director Maia of the Proulx Gallery, said, young Master Yale of the Dawson Conglomerate, and of course, the magus genius and the genius sculptor, Master Linley.

These people walked in the middle corridor, chatting and laughing amongst themselves as they headed for the exit of the Proulx Gallery.

“Mr Guillermo. Mr. Lampson. ”

"Your Majesty. ”

"Mr Linley. ”

… .

All the nobles and figures around him smiled and greeted them with humility and goodwill. The Debs Clan, however, had been squeezed into a corner. Her head was firmly covered by her hat, Alice could not help but to raise her head and peek at Linley, who was buried within the sea of hopeful nobles and kings.

In this age, Linley had become a legendary genius.

The seventeen-year-old two-element magus of the seventh rank whose achievements in the field of sculpture rivaled those of Proulx, Hope Jensen, Hoover, and other Grandmasters. A genius like him would naturally be seen as the most glittering star in the sky, worthy of everyone's admiration. Slowly, the two Cardinals, King Clayde, Linley, Yale, and the others disappeared in the distance.

Only then did all the nobles and rich moguls leave as well.

“You must be Alice. "A clear voice suddenly sounded.

Several members of the Debs clan looked behind them into the hall.

A golden-haired beautiful woman walked towards them, while by his side was an old man with a warm smile on his face. But both this woman and the old servant had noble auras emanating from their bones, naturally making others feel inferior to them.

Seeing her, Bernard immediately said humbly, “Master Shaw, this must be Miss Delia. I have long heard that the legendary Miss Delia of the Leon clan is so beautiful that she can cause the downfall of a kingdom. Today, after seeing her, I must say that she is even more beautiful than the legends. ”

The influence of the Debs clan was limited to the Kingdom of Fenlai. Compared to the Leon clan that stretched across the continent, they were extremely small.

"Oh, the leader of the Bernard clan of the Debs clan?" Delia glanced at Bernard.

Bernard nodded politely.

"And this must be your son Kalan's fiancee, right?" Delia looked at Alice, who was hiding behind Kalan.

Bernard immediately smiled. "his? No, she's not my son Kalan's main wife. ”

"Not the principal's wife?" A cold smile appeared on Delia's face, and she slowly walked towards Alice. Bernard did not dare to stand in his way. As Delia approached Kalan, Kalan completely puffed out his chest and tried to block his way boldly.

But when he met Delia's cold gaze, Kalan suddenly felt his heart turn cold.

When he reminded himself that this was the young mistress of the Leon clan, Kalan felt increasingly uneasy. Right now, the relationship between the Debs clan and the Dawson Conglomerate was already terrifying. If they were to offend the Leon clan as well.it would be too easy for the Leon clan to deal with the Debs clan.

"Alice. "Delia looked into Alice's eyes.

Alice raised her head, forcing herself to match Delia's gaze, doing her best to calm her heartbeat.

Delia was just laughing. In a soft voice, he said, "Alice ... I really don't know why Linley fell in love with you?" Alice's face turned pale, but she replied, "It's none of your business!"

"It's none of my business?" Delia laughed a little. "really. That's none of my business. But I really feel sorry for you. You actually gave up Linley, but the result was? You won't even be the main wife in this Debs clan. I'm imagining You're feeling sorry .. But unfortunately, you'll never have that chance again. Because a person like you would never have the chance to interact with Linley again. In the future, you two will be in a different world. Do you understand?"

Delia completely ignored the ugly look on Kalan's face, and she turned her head directly to Bernard.

“I'm sorry for bothering you. "Delia said very politely.

Bernard immediately bowed humbly. "Miss Delia, with your permission. ”

The old man by Delia's side looked at Kalan, who still had an ugly expression on his face. With a cold sneer, he followed Delia out. But Bernard kept seeing them off with a polite smile on his face. Only after Delia and her servant left did she turn around, looking at Alice and Kalan with deadly gazes.

"It's really embarrassing!" Bernard huffed at them.

Neither Kalan nor Alice dared to make a sound. Under this aura of oppression, the Debs clan returned home.

……

Inside the Lucas clan house in Fenlai City.

"Mr Linley, no, no, no need. "Marquis Jebs hurriedly tried to resist Linley. “Truly no need for 600,000 gold coins. Mr. Linley, I am very sorry. I really don't know that you've reached such an incredible level in the sculptural field. ”

Jebs, that stubborn old man. Right now, when he saw Linley, his eyes were filled with something akin to respect for an idol.

Marquis Jebs didn't have much of a hobby. One thing he liked was collecting things.

Naturally, he felt a deep respect for Grandmaster-level craftsmen in every field. Perhaps even if King Fenlai was present, he would not feel as amazed as he did now towards Linley.

"How about we just call it the price of 180,000 gold, is that alright? My clan originally bought it for 180,000 gold coins, so it was still fair. Master Linley, I am really unwilling to make any money from you. If I take advantage and get money from you, Mr. Linley, I won't be able to sleep well at night. ”

That adorable old man, Mr. Marquis, is very stubborn.

"Marquis Jebs, in the past, when your Lucas clan bought this 'Slayers' warblade from my clan, the price you paid was 180,000 gold coins, correct. But after these centuries, due to inflation, the 180,000 gold coins you paid are worth far more now. "Linley was unwilling to take advantage of the Lucas clan either.

But Marquis Jebs just stubbornly stared at Linley.

"Haha, you guys .. you guys are really ..." Next to them, Yale laughed so hard that he held her stomach. “The seller is frantically trying to lower the price of his product, and would rather give it away for free. But buyers are trying to raise prices higher. I've never seen anything like it before. ”

Linley laughed helplessly as well. “Marquis Jebs, how about this. Centuries ago, that 180,000 gold coins had a purchasing power comparable to about 360,000 gold in this era. Let's go with 360,000 gold coins. Don't refuse anymore! If you do, I will just throw away my magicrystal card and leave. ”

Linley pulled the magicrystal card from his chest pocket.

Marquis Jebs looked dejectedly at Linley, but eventually nodded. "All right then . ”

Linley could not help but laugh.

Marquis Jebs suddenly laughed rather sheepishly as well. "Mr Linley, I have a little help asking, if I can?"

"Continue . "Linley laughed, looking at the Marquis.

Marquis Jebs gestured to his servants, who quickly brought the upright stone tablet from inside his house.

"Mr Linley, I just wish you could put your signature on this tablet. If you do, I'll cherish this forever. "Marquis Jebs looked at Linley with hopeful eyes.

Linley laughed, then pulled his straight chisel out of his chest pocket.

With a leisurely movement of the wrist, the chisel began to fly hazy as stone dust began to fall from the stone tablet. In the time it took to take three breaths, Linley finished and pulled out his chisel. Gently blowing air on the tablet, all the remaining dust flew from it, revealing an artistically written name, as if it were a flying dragon or a dancing phoenix.

LINLEY

Gazing at that word, Marquis Jebs eyes shone. “What an elegant engraving technique, and beautiful letters. This word was far more valuable than 360,000 gold coins. ”

Hearing this, Linley did not know whether to laugh or cry.

……….

On the road from Fenlai City to Wushan city, the trail is bordered by redwood trees on both sides. Riding a large stallion, Linley galloped forward with a large case on his back. This case weighs a few hundred pounds. Fortunately, this stallion was very good provided by the Dawson Conglomerate. A normal horse would not be able to move quickly while carrying such a load.

The team has been rewarded to Linley by the Radiant Church via Cardinal Lampson and Cardinal Guillermo. What the Radiant Church claimed was that Linley's safety was of the utmost importance to them, which could be seen from the recent kidnapping attempt. The weakest member of this army was a soldier of the fifth rank. It belonged to one of the ace regiments of the Radiant Temple Knights.

More than a hundred horses wandered behind, kicking up a cloud of dust.

From afar, the image of the city of Wushan was getting closer and closer to Linley's sight. In his mind, he could not help but rethink the events of his youth, such as the training he had undergone on the training ground, as well as the frightening sight of Velocidragon.

In the past, in Linley's eyes, the Velocidragon was a symbol of invincibility. But now, to Linley, Velocidragon was no longer anything.

"Rumb, rumbling. ”

The earth trembled as this army of knights and elite war warriors continued their journey. Vibration can be felt from far away.

"Strong army. ”

While walking in the middle of the town of Wushan, Hillman could only turn around and stare. The sound of footsteps was orderly, swift and powerful, jolting fear into Hillman's heart. Even when he was in the army, he had never found the strength of a high-quality knight.

The lowest of the knights present was a soldier of the fifth rank. How could an army belong to one of the Radiant Church's ace regiments of low quality?

The sound of their horses galloping around alone could frighten many.

"Who is that?" Hillman immediately saw someone riding in front of the troops.

"Linley's. "The expression on Hillman's face changed, and he quickly ran at high speed towards the house of the Baruch clan.

After entering the boundaries of the proper Wushan city, Linley instructed the knight troops to lower their speed. Linley, only, continued moving at a relatively fast speed towards his clan house. Seeing from afar that the scarred walls were wrapped in wine, Linley recalled one event after another of his youth.

"Klan Baruch, my roots, my foundation!" Carrying the warblade, 'Slaughterer', on his back, Linley's heart was filled with pride.

Linley could still remember clearly, the first time he went to the Ernst Institute, what his father had told him. Linley believed that he would never forget these words from his father.

"Linley, remember the long desire of the centuries-old generation of Elder Baruch. Remember the disgrace of the Baruch clan! ”

“After graduating, you will at least become a magus of the sixth rank. As long as you train hard, becoming a magus of the seventh rank should not be too difficult. In the future, you will definitely have the ability to regain the heirloom of our clan ancestors. If you fail to do so, even in death, I will not forgive you. ”

"Even in death, I will not forgive you!"

… .

That voice echoed in Linley's mind. But this time, feeling the weight of the 'Slayers' on his back, Linley only felt a wave of pride.

"Dad, I'll be back"!

"Dad, I've brought back our war knives, 'Slaughterer'!"

Linley flew off the back of his horse and directly charged into his clan's courtyard.

"Dad!" Shouted Linley loudly.

"I'm back! I brought the 'Slaughterer' warblade back! "Linley was filled with joy and excitement. The elders of his clan had been working for centuries. His father has been pioneering all his life. And now, he had finally fulfilled his father's wish!

"War knife, 'Slayers'?" A voice sounded.

Linley turned around and looked back. It was Hillman.

“Uncle Hillman, which father? Hurry up, get him out. Haha, I finally brought back the 'Slayers' warblade. Be honest! I have the ancestral heirloom of our Dragonblood Warrior clan. I finally brought him back. Quick, tell me where my father is. Once my father finds out, he'll be very happy. Tonight, we're really going to get drunk. Uncle Hillman, don't worry, tonight, I won't neglect my duties. I'll definitely get drunk with you. If we don't get drunk, we won't stop! ”

Linley was so excited, he continued to babble nonstop. He even took off the case from his back, holding it in his hand as he stared at Uncle Hillman.

But ….

There was not the slightest bit of excitement on Hillman's face. In fact, there was a bit of misery.

"No …. Uncle Hillman? "Linley started frowning. Looking at Uncle Hillman, he said, "Uncle Hillman, where's my father?"

Looking at Linley, Hillman forced a smile. "Linley, you've brought back the warblade, 'Slayers'? If your father finds out, he'll be happy. Certainly . ”

"Where's my dad?"

"Yes . Day . He died three months ago. "Hillman took a deep breath, then finally, slowly said these words. As he did so, his eyes became moist.

Linley suddenly felt as if countless lightning bolts were exploding in his ears. Brain's empty.

"ABOUT!"

The case in Linley's hand fell to the ground. The case closed, revealing a gigantic warblade that exuded a murderous aura and was dyed in a slightly bloody red color. That cold, killing aura and bloody aura filled the entire hall in an instant.

"Dead?"

Linley stared in disbelief at Hillman.

Hillman nodded slightly.

Suddenly, Linley laughed. “Haha, Uncle Hillman, you must have lied to me. Haha, I have brought back the 'Slayers' warblade. Look, Uncle Hillman, I've brought back the 'Slayers' warblade. How could my father die? He'll see this warblade first. ”

With one hand, Linley grabbed and took the 'Slaughterer' warblade'. Instantly, that bloody aura even filled Hillman's heart with fear.

"Uncle Hillman, look. I brought back the 'Slayers'. And I have to tell my father that I am now capable of turning into a Dragonblood Warrior. "Scales began to form around Linley's hand, and within a short period of time, Linley's hand turned into draconic claws.

Grabbing Hillman's shoulder with his two draconic claws, Linley looked into Hillman's eyes. “Uncle Hillman, listen, I can already turn into a Dragonblood Warrior. I've brought the 'Slaughterer' warblade home to our clan. That's right . Where's my father's father!"

"I'll show the 'Slayers' warblade to him!"

"I haven't had a chance to tell him that I can become a Dragonblood Warrior!"

Their draconic claws clutched Hillman's shoulders, but the owner of those claws, Linley, stared pleading into Hillman's eyes.

"Uncle Hillman, I beg you, tell me, where is my father?" Like a poor and lost orphan, Linley looked at Hillman, his eyes begging. As the drowning man gripped the grass stem, Linley gripped Hillman.

Hillman gently shook his head. "Linley, your father .. is dead!"

Linley laughed. Laughing so sad. "No. not possible. I have to show him the 'Slayers' warblade. I had to tell him that I could turn into a Dragonblood Warrior. And tonight, I'll have some wine with him. ”

As he spoke, tears began to cover Linley's face.

Staring at Linley, Hillman could not help but lower his face, and then two rivers of tears started flowing down his own face.

"Cannot be. Impossible!"

Gripping Hillman fiercely with his two claws, Linley stared intently at Hillman. His eyes even saw the same dark golden color of the same Razorback Wyrm Armor. The entire hall was suddenly filled with an extremely ugly aura that was even more terrifying than that emitted by the warblade 'Slayers.

This low hoarse growl was emitted from Linley's throat …

"Tell me… . Where's my dad?"
