The Sovereign Dragon Ring

Episode 213's

The provincial capital of Basil was the base of operations for the ancient Jacques clan, here in the Administrative Province of the Northwest. Here, in the Northwest Administrative Province, the Jacques clan could be considered a local king. During their annual clan meeting, all the various branches of the clan would rush to the provincial capital.

In the northeastern part of the provincial capital, there was an extremely large and ancient castle. This is the headquarters of the Jacques clan.

The Yulan Calendar, 10008. November 14th. This was the day when the castle of the Jacques clan would always be decorated and brightly lit. The number of guards at the gate tripled as well, compared to the past. Moreover, many members of the clan branch passed through the gate today, coming from all over the world.

“Kak, the clan castle is much bigger than ours, at least ten times bigger. "Keane peeked through the fabric door of his carriage while sighing in astonishment.

This car contains three people. Keane, Irene, and Jenne.

Jenne was also staring through the door. Nodding, he said, “Klan it clearly has far more experts than us as well. Merely, I wonder if my great-grandfather will be there as well. ”

The great-grandfather Jenne was talking about was McKenzie.

Every year, at annual meetings, McKenzie is sometimes present but sometimes not. However, two years ago, McKenzie showed himself once. The sighting satisfies Jenne and Keane's desire to see the hero everyone in the clan worships.

“It's very possible. Irene had never seen a great-grandfather. ”Keane holding his wife's hand.

The caravan quickly arrived at the castle gate. It's stopping. Jenne, Keane, and Irene all know the rules. They got off the train.

"Jenne!" A seductive and seductive voice sounded.

Immediately after hearing this voice, Jenne frowned, but then she smiled. He turned his head and looked towards a young man with shiny hair. "Cousin Albert [Ai'bo'te]. ”

“Sepupu Albert. ”Keane and Irene also said politely.

Albert looked like someone full of himself. Being educated since he was young had given him the atmosphere of an ancient noble clan, but just by looking at his eyes and face, anyone could tell that this man was an empty-headed lecher.

But Albert was the eldest son of the current leader of the Jacques clan, and was also the successor of the position.

The future clan leader of the Jacques clan. Who would dare look at Albert, given his status?

“Jenne, you grow prettier year after year. Keane, Irene, don't just stand there like an idiot, come in. Albert warmly escorted Jenne and the others to the castle.

Due to a family meeting on November 15, some people came on the 14th. The night of the 14th, the castle of the Jacques clan was very lively.

"Sister, feeling frustrated over Albert again?"

Keane walked into Jenne's room. Seeing Jenne standing at the window and sighing, she could immediately guess what Jenne was thinking.

Jenne turned to look at her little brother. Frowning, he said, "That Albert has no good intentions. Every time at our clan meeting, he would come bothering me. These days never pass easily. ”

"Sister. ”Keane holds his sister's hand. Apologizing, she said, “I know that the only reason you didn't go with big brother Ley is because you want to spend a few more days with me. ”

"Keane. "Jenne patted Keane's head affectionately. “Keane, you're even taller than me now. ”

Keane nodded silently.

Jenne has been taking care of Keane since they were young. Ever since they arrived in the Holy Union, their mother was seriously ill, and Jenne took care of Keane like a mother.

The love between these two brothers is deep.

"Jenne, Jenne's Cousin. "Albert's voice sounded again.

Jenne and Keane both frowned, there was no trace of enjoyment on their faces right now. This Albert is really annoying and strangling like a boa constrictor.

In the blink of an eye, Albert had arrived at the doorway.

"Jenne. Oh, Keane, you're here too. "Albert beaming. "Jenne, we held a small banquet in the main hall. Jenne, let's go together. I've arranged for some people to prepare some beautiful evening dresses for you. ”

Jenne shook her head. "Not needed . I feel a little dizzy and a little unwell. ”

“Why do you feel unwell? Let me see it. “Albert actually stepped forward, intending to touch Jenne on her forehead. Jenne immediately took two steps back.

Keane sneered from the side, “Sepupu Albert, my brother is not feeling well. Let him rest well. ”

Albert stood there for a moment, then laughed and nodded. "Good . "He looked at Keane. “Keane, come with me for a moment. Cousin Jenne, get some rest. If there's anything you need, just let the waiters know. "He looked meaningfully at Keane.

Keane nodded, then followed Albert out.

Inside the flower garden.

Albert and Keane walked together. Albert was silent, and Keane also said nothing.

After all this time…

"Keane, what's it like to be the prefectural city governor?" Albert suddenly asked.

Keane surprised. Slowly, he said, “Pretty good. ”

Albert laughed and nodded. "Of course it's good. You rule millions of people, Keane. You should understand that the entire Northwest Administrative Province only had ten prefectural cities. Positions such as the city governor were highly sought after, and many people supervised those positions. After all, our Jacques clan is a great clan. ”

As if he understood something, Keane nodded.

The Jacques Clan was constantly starting new branches. Naturally, each generation is more numerous than the last. In the past, the reason why Keane's father, Count Wade, was fortunate enough to accept the governorship was because he was very close to the previous clan leader.

In fact, the various governors of the city were completely controlled and decided by the clan leader of the Jacques clan.

After all, the Jacques clan had sole authority over the management of the Northwest Administrative Province.

“Keane, you should know that many of my sisters are grown now, like my own third brother. Currently, he was only a major in the army. Many of these people were eager to become prefectural city governors. "Albert looked at Keane with an expression that the two were and did not smile.

Keane knew what Albert was implying.

“And not just my brothers. My uncle also. In the past, they couldn't cope with your father, but they never gave up. ”

Albert looked at Keane. "Keane, I have a very good impression of you. But you have to understand that in order to get something, you have to give something. ”

Keane quiet.

"Keane, you have taken over the city governor, yes, but I, the future clan leader, can make you lose that as well. Albert saw Keane silent, and began to speak more coldly.

“Sepupu Albert, go ahead and state your wishes. ”Keane forced a smile onto his face.

Keane was filled with anger.

He knew Albert's intentions long ago. A gentle, beautiful, and virtuous woman like Jenne, especially after starting to practice water style magic, was a very charming and refined woman.

Albert's been giving it to her all along.

Albert was thirty years old and had three wives. If Keane's sister marries her, she's nothing more than a concubine.

Moreover, his sister would follow Linley.

"Cousin Albert, I told you before that my sister already has someone she likes. "Keane said without power.

“A very joke. Albert sneering. “Keane, if your sister has someone she likes, why isn't she married? And even if he likes someone, we can just keep killing him. ”

Albert wanted Jenne for a long time. Not only was she beautiful, she was also a magus. Once one trained in magic, their longevity would be extended. Most likely, even when she was sixty or seventy, Jenne would look like a thirty-year-old woman. Albert would want a wife like this.

"You can't kill him. The person my brother liked was an expert of the ninth rank. "Keane made a decision.

"A fighter of the ninth rank?" Albert frowned.

It's troublesome. If he was the current clan leader, he could use the powerful warriors from the clan to go kill experts of the ninth rank. But he's just a successor. The people he possessed were quite limited, and they were not very strong either.

"Keane, you better not lie to me. "Albert looked at Keane coldly.

Keane bowed a little. "Cousin Albert, I'm definitely not lying. Brother liked it. There's nothing I can do about that. Cousin Albert, I won't bother you any further. I said goodbye. ”

Albert snorted coldly, staring at Keane as he left.

"Five years . "Albert stared at Jenne's room. "This time, I definitely can't let Jenne slip away again. So what if he was a ninth rank expert? Did he dare to come and make trouble for the Jacques clan? "A fierce expression like a wolf was in Albert's eyes.

On the 15th, Linley had headed to the Dawson Conglomerate headquarters early in the morning. Using his medal showing that he was an elder, he sent some people to Cloudpeaks Village to tell Zassler and the others that he would be postponed.

And then, Linley secretly stayed at the Nile Hotel.

There are more than ten castles behind the Nile Hotel, all of which are tall and well made. Linley lived in one of them.

Within his courtyard, Linley finished carving the statue, and then started waving the adamantine heavy sword about as he pleased.

Bebe and Haeru both lazily rested on the ground.

After training with the sword for some time, Linley stopped, suddenly a thought popped into his mind. “It has been a year since I reached the top of the eighth rank. In this past month, I have always felt that I would break through, but for some reason, there were only a few small pieces missing. ”

For ordinary people, breaking through from the peak of the eighth rank to the ninth rank was no big deal.

But for the Supreme Warriors, the difference between the two was huge. After entering the ninth rank, Linley in Dragonform would be at Saint-level.

“I can't be too hasty. My training speed is very fast. "Linley was still quite calm. Gazing towards the south, Linley once again began to think about his younger brother, Wharton. “When I reach ninth rank, I will head to the imperial capital and meet my sister. It's been a long time since I've seen Wharton. ”

Ever since Wharton left home when he was six and headed to O'Brien Kingdom along with Housekeeper Hiri, the two brothers never met again.

And now, Wharton is twenty-two years old. Another month, he was twenty-three.

"Hmm?" Linley suddenly turned around and looked at the courtyard wall.

The various manors operated by the hotel are all quite close to each other, with each parcel of land divided into two palaces. At this moment, in the manor adjoining Linley, the person who hired the manor had climbed up the wall and peered in this direction.

This guest was a very sweet and agile young lady. His guilty eyes stared towards Linley, but they locked onto the Blackcloud Panther on the ground.

“Wow, big beetle. The young lady very nimbly jumped onto the wall, and then ran towards Haeru.

"Don't touch it. "Linley immediately shouted.

The young lady stopped, smiled and laughed at Linley. “Sister, I've never seen such an adorable big black panther. Can I touch it? ”

This young lady had a head full of silver hair, and her eyes were extremely intelligent. She had a cute smile on her face, but she was wearing the clothes of a female warrior.

Linley took a size look at this silver-haired girl.

The strength of a warrior was difficult to measure just by looking at them, but Linley could tell from the aura of this girl that she was at least a warrior of the seventh rank, or perhaps even higher.

“Haeru does not like to be touched by others. "Said Linley calmly.

The silver-haired girl could not help but frown, frowning her nose as she frowned. "Hmph, I don't trust you. My teacher's magical beasts often let me touch them. “The silver-haired girl ran straight towards Haeru.

"Groooooowls. “Haeru suddenly got up, baring her sharp fangs as she stared coldly at the silver-haired girl.

The silver-haired girl was immediately frightened, and she stumbled two steps away.

"I told you . Haeru doesn't like to be touched. Simply, you can go back to your own place now. "Linley immediately asked him to leave.

The silver-haired girl smiled charmingly at Linley. "My master told me that a panther-type magical beast was extremely formidable. Then big brother, you must be very strong as well. Can I argue with you? "

"Spar?" Linley did not like his life being interrupted by others.

"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Danlan [Dan'lan]. “The silver-haired girl said with a sweet smile.

“You can call me Ley. But I don't have time for you. You can go back now. "Linley still spoke coldly and calmly. For a young girl to at least become a warrior of the seventh rank .. she was not as simple as she appeared.

The silver-haired girl pouted helplessly. "Oh. Okay . "And then he turned and left, though his heart was filled with frustration. "Linley's a really cold guy. Getting close to him will be difficult. But I won't give up either. If I could kill him easily, I would. ”

This silver haired girl is Lyndin.

But in terms of temperament, Lyndin has changed dramatically. In the past, he was an ice-cold Angel. But now, she became adorable and lively. One had to admit that his acting skills were great.

"Oh, big brother Ley, are you a sculptor?" Lyndin looked at the statue that Linley had just finished and immediately ran over in excitement. Staring at him, he said happily, “My teacher also likes sculptures, but she does not know how to carve herself. ”As he spoke, Lyndin carefully examined the statue with great curiosity.

Linley frowned.

This silver haired girl is really annoying!
