“In terms of lineage as well as personality, Caylan is a good guy. "Wharton held Nina in his hand, speaking softly. "I'm afraid your Imperial father will give up your marriage to Caylan. ”
Nina nodded. "It is true that the Empire's father valued Caylan for his high talent in magic. In the future, he had a high chance of becoming an Arch Magus of the ninth rank, and even had the chance to become a Saint Level Magus. The Empire had many Saint-level experts, but most of them were Saint-level warriors. There were very few Grand Magi Saint-levels. ”
Wharton sensed that Caylan was a threat.
Although Lamonte was a member of War God College, he was only an honor student. Moreover, his clan was not very strong either. He, Wharton, is the Dragonblood Warrior. As long as the Emperor wasn't stupid, he would definitely choose Wharton.
But if Caylan were to compete against Wharton, things would be different. After all his father was a powerful and influential Left Prime Minister in the Empire.
"Nina. ”Wharton has become very solemn.
"Hmm?" Located in Wharton's arms, Nina looked at him.
"I was preparing to request an audience with His Imperial Majesty, and personally asked him to grant me a marriage. "Said Wharton with a very serious expression on his face.
Nina started, and then an expression of wild excitement appeared on her face.
“Really?” Nina was very excited.
"Yes nih . "Wharton nodded. "Nina, before I do, you can chat with your Imperial father and find out which way the wind is blowing. ”
Nina shook her head helplessly. "I thought I told you. My own Imperial Father has not decided. The only thing he said was, 'no rush', 'no rush' .. but my Imperial father does have a very good impression of you, and he appreciates you as well. If you really ask for my hand, I think your odds will be very high. Nina was hopeful.
Only one of her sisters married someone she loved. For Nina's other sisters, their marriage was a marriage of political convenience, and not a very happy marriage.
Wharton nodded slightly.
“Don't worry, Nina. I'm not gonna let anyone take you from me. ”Wharton hugged tightly Nina, who placed her head on Wharton's large, sturdy chest.
The Northwest Administrative Province. Cloudpeaks Village, outside the provincial capital. On the west side of Cloudpeaks Village, there was a forest. Linley was already Dragonformed currently arguing with Bebe.
"Bebe, don't force me. "Said Linley helplessly as he held the adamantine heavy sword. "If you continue to do this to me, then I will be forced to use the Earth's Profound Truth. ”
“Heh heh, Boss, I know you care too much for me to do that to me. Bebe floated in the air, speaking in human language.
After reaching Saint-levels, magical beasts could freely change their size, and also speak in human language. But only a God-level magical beast could transform into a human form.
In the entire Yulan continent, only the Dark Forest King and the Beast Mountain Range King, these two powerful God-level experts, could transform into human forms.
As for Bebe, who knew how long before he could reach such a level?
"You . "Linley sighed. “I reached Saint level and finally caught you in terms of speed and defense. But you, you immediately entered Saint-level as well. Your speed becomes more ridiculous. ”
But the speed of movement and the speed of attack remain two different concepts.
The speed of swinging a sword was much faster than the speed of movement. Although in terms of dodging and agility, Linley was no match for Bebe, his adamantine heavy sword was still able to block Bebe's attacks. Thus, facing Bebe, Linley usually just stood there, using his sword to defend himself.
"Heh heh. Bebe laughed proudly.
In fact, Linley's Profound Truth about Earth was still a real threat to Bebe. After all, the Profound Truth of the Earth all but ignored the external defenses, making the powerful defense Bebe useless.
But how could Linley bear to use a ferocious attack against Bebe?
Thus, Bebe continuously teased and mocked Linley in their spar.
"Enough . My body has two claw marks now. Are you happy? "Linley laughed while rubbing Bebe's little head. "Come back . Time to eat . ”
As he spoke, Linley returned to his human form, then put on a new set of clothes.
“Bos is always the best. "Bebe flew over Linley's shoulder and giggled.
In Linley's current squad, if Linley were to avoid using the Earth's Profound Truth, there was no one here who was a match for Bebe. Bebe was a Saint-level magical beast that was truly powerful, continuously.
"Bebe, what kind of magical beast are you, exactly?" Linley walked over while chatting with Bebe.
“I don't know either. ”Bebe quickly shook his little head.
Linley suddenly recalled something, then looked towards Bebe in astonishment. "Bebe, do you remember back when we initiated our 'equal bond', I asked what is your name? At that moment you said, 'Bei', 'Bei'. You don't say anything you want to say very clearly. ”
Linley remembered the scene very clearly.
"Little Shadowmouse, what's your name?" Linley mentally asked her.
The little Shadowmouse said, somewhat excitedly, "Bei ... bei …. ”
Linley had been staring at the little Shadowmouse.
"What did little Shadowmouse say?" Linley did not really understand.
His white beard was flowing, Doehring Cowart floated next to him and said, “Linley, this little Shadowmouse is still a baby. He could not yet form the right sound. Even when engaging in mental communication with you, for now, he can only communicate simple intentions. ”
Because of their spiritual connection, Linley could feel the excitement of the little Shadowmouse, but the little Shadowmouse could not speak at all.
"Good . You said 'Bei' …. 'Bei' .. then I'll call you 'Bebe'. How's it? "Linley smiled as she watched the little Shadowmouse.
The little shadowmouse seemed to ponder for a while, and then happily nodded.
And just like that, Linley named her 'Bebe'.
"Did I say that?"
Bebe shocked.
"Oh, right. "Bebe remembered. "I remember now . When I was so young, so young that I could not even open my eyes, I heard a very close, very warm voice speaking to me. ”
Linley immediately looked at Bebe. He had never heard Bebe talk about this before.
It was normal for magical beasts to be unable to open their eyes as soon as they were born. Back then, Bebe had most likely just been born not too long ago. It was a very distant memory. If Linley had not brought it, Bebe would not have remembered it either.
"The voice told me that I belonged to some clan. It instructed me to hide in the backyard of your clan house and not run around. And then, the voice disappeared. Bebe was very confused.
"Klan Bei-something?" Linley asked.
Linley now understood.
"Klan Beirut?" Linley. "The magical beast beast has a clan?"
Bebe shook his head in confusion as well. "I don't know either. I never met my parents after I was born. I only live in the backyard of your clan house, and all I have to eat are those pieces of debris. ”
Linley firmly imprinted this name into his memories of the – Beirut clan!
Linley was absolutely certain that he had never heard of any powerful clan in the Yulan continent named 'Beirut'. But this clan was most likely a magical beast clan.
Clan magical beast?
Linley did not know about it because he was not a magical beast.
But Bebe also did not know, because he had no parents.
Ten more days passed for Linley within Cloudpeaks Village. Per Linley's agreement with McKenzie, all he had to do was to make a single trip to visit the Jacques clan within thirty days.
"Sister Linley, you've got a letter. "Jenne ran excitedly from outside.
"Oh, it must be from the Dawson Conglomerate. ”
The Dawson conglomerate sends a letter every month. Linley immediately walked out. There was a young man leading a horse outside. Upon seeing Linley, the young man immediately bowed and said politely, “Master Ley, here's your letter. ”
Linley received the letter and laughed. “Next month, you don't need to come here. ”
The young man looked at Linley with a question.
“At this time next month, I will no longer be here. "Linley had made the old decision that in the next few days, she would head to the Jacques clan.
His injuries had healed a long time ago, and after Dragonforming, he was a Saint level fighter. It was time to go visit his little brother.
It's been a long time since he's met Wharton. In his heart, Linley had always missed this one and only brother.
"Yes, Mr. Ley. “The young man said respectfully, and then he got on his horse and left.
As for Linley, he opened the letter and read it. The letter had quite a lot of general information regarding the current state of the Radiant Church and the Yulan continent as a whole. It also has some information about Reynolds, George, and Yale. At the bottom is information about Wharton.
“George is really tough. "Linley sighed mentally in praise.
With the support of the Walsh family, George continued his upward trajectory within the Yulan Empire. He himself is very talented as well, but more importantly …
The Third Prince of the Yulan Empire had successfully inherited the imperial throne, becoming the Emperor of the Yulan Empire.
Before the Third Prince took over the position of Emperor, George was already very close to him. Both are politically one mind. Now that the Third Prince had succeeded his father as Emperor, George had become the youngest Grand Secretary in the Yulan Empire.
The entire Yulan Empire only had twelve Great Secretaries. Each one of them possessed extraordinary strength and authority. Moreover, George was also the Vice for the Right Premier of the Yulan Empire.
“For comparison, Reynolds did not do as well as George. "Linley chuckled, then she closely read the information about Wharton. Linley had a general idea of what Wharton was doing.
After reading the letter …
"What ?!" Linley. "Wharton has asked the Emperor to hand the Seventh Princess in marriage?"
Conglomerate Dawson just sent this news to the provincial capital Basil not long ago. This incident happened just a few days ago.
"The emperor disagrees?"
Frowning, Linley continued reading. “Fortunately, even though she disagrees, she also does not reject harshly. ”
According to the letter, the Emperor continued to delay.
That Lamonte had long gone to ask the same question, and the Emperor had not agreed either. Now that Wharton had left, the Emperor still refused to approve. What he said was, “Nina is young. There's no rush. ”
Nina is twenty-one years old. He's not that young.
But Nina was a magus and a warrior, and her affinity as a magus was for water magic, which was extremely beneficial to one's body. Nina's lifespan would definitely be very long. It was easy for him to live for three or four hundred years. Given this, it was true that she did not need to rush into marriage.
"One was the son of the Imperial Left Prime Minister, while the other was an honor student of War God's College. "Linley could soon figure out who her sister's greatest enemy was. It was the son of the Premier Left, whose name was Caylan magus.
“It seems the situation does not look good. "Linley's forehead is wrinkled. A cold light appeared in his eyes. "Whatever happens, I can't let Wharton walk the same path I did. Tomorrow, I'll pay a visit to the Jacques clan. After fulfilling the agreement, we will head straight to the imperial capital. ”
Linley had made his decision.
But right at that moment …
"God, God!" Gates' familiar voice sounded. Gates is probably the most passionate of the five brothers.
"God!" Not just Gates; others were shouting as well.
Confused, Linley returned to the courtyard. When he did, Gates and the others immediately rushed at him, their faces filled with wild excitement.
“You're all very happy. What's the good news? "Linley laughs.
"Second brother, second brother has already reached ninth rank!" Gates was the first to speak.
“Ankh, our second brother, is at Saint level as well after transforming. “The third brother, Hazer, said happily.
Linley.
Of the five brothers, Barker was the first to reach the ninth rank. After he had the strength of a Saint-level, the other four brothers, all at the peak of the eighth rank, continued to work hard. Unexpectedly, the others had reached the ninth rank so quickly.
"I myself. Bebe's. Barkers. Ankhs. Suddenly, the four of us reached Saint-level. "Linley had never heard of a clan that had four Saint-level fighters. The scariest part of it was .. The other three brothers could break through at any moment as well.
Linley did not know, but he smiled so widely that his lips threatened to break.
Perhaps the next day, someone would come running to tell him that one of the five brothers had broken through. They would then have another Saint level in their ranks.
Linley now felt increasingly convinced that his decision to save Barker and his brothers was a truly genius decision. At this moment, aside from Barker and Ankh, the other three brothers could be considered Saint-levels in the making.
