The Sovereign Dragon Ring

Episode 296's

Linley landed on the side of the lake. Filled with excitement, he looked at Delia, whose eyes were filled with tears. Suddenly he urged to immediately take Delia into his arms. But even though she had this urge, she still stood in front of Delia, her mouth open, but did not know what to say.

He had ten million words in his heart, but he could not utter a single word.

"Linley, you haven't changed. "Delia laughs. He was the one who reached it, with his left hand.

Looking at that tiny, white hand, Linley was stunned for a moment. Delia glanced at him from the corner of her eyes. "Hey, Dumbo, are you going to make me use the Soaring Technique, just so I can get to the center of the lake?" There was a distance of several tens of meters from here to the center of the lake. If Delia did not use the Soaring Technique, she would not be able to get there.

Seeing the way Delia looked at him, and his ivory-white arm, Linley immediately extended his right hand and took his own.

"So, uh, Linley. I'm going to leave now. ”Zassler finally speaking.

The faces of Linley and Delia both suddenly turned red. Linley turned to glance at Zassler, speechless. Zassler blinked at Linley, then turned around and ran away at high speed.

“That's Zassler. "Holding hands with Delia, Linley tapped his feet, summoning the wind that swirled around the two of them. Gently .. Linley and Delia floated to the middle of the lake. They stepped onto the edge of the stone platform, then sat down beside each other.

The two hold hands. Feeling the gentle warmth of Delia's hand in her own, Linley felt as if he was standing in the clouds. Delia's face slowly turned pink as well. The atmosphere between the two instantly grew more intimate.

Suddenly…

Linley saw that in the water, not too far away, Bebe had popped his small head and used his cunning little eyes to peek at Linley and Delia.

"Oh! The boss! You guys keep doing what you're doing. Bebe would just go somewhere else to play for a while. You guys keep doing it! ”Bebe, knowing that he had been found, immediately sank into the water. However, Linley and Delia did not notice that far away, above the tree near the top of the Mountain. Blackraven, a Wildthunder Stormhawk was clandestinely peeping at them.

"Hej . ”Delia immediately started giggling. "Linley, Bebe is really adorable. ”

Linley nodded and laughed as well. "That's Bebe. Oh right Delia, why did you wait so long to come here after you left the O'Brien Empire? Did something happen? "Linley still remembered how, when Delia left, she said she would come to find her soon.

Delia nodded, but she fell silent.

The events that took place in the imperial capital completely injured Delia. He was very disappointed in his parents. Linley's words .. instantly made Delia feel sad.

"What's going on? Talk to me . "Linley squeezed Delia's hand.

"You really want to know?" Delia looked at Linley, her face close to him.

Linley nodded.

“If you listen to the story, then you should marry me. “Delia suddenly said.

"What …. "This sneak attack actually caught Linley offguard. Delia was really the only woman Linley was currently interested in, but for her to marry him immediately. The failure of his first relationship had caused Linley to be somewhat defensive in this regard.

He still did not dare to invest himself fully in any relationship with a woman.

He was afraid that he would be truly heartbroken once again.

"I was just kidding with you. "Delia started laughing, then sniffed flirtatiously. "Sheesh, Zarlin. Can't you pretend or just tease me for a moment? "Delia's words made Linley feel less awkward.

Delia took a deep breath. "I can tell you now, if you still want to hear it?"

Linley immediately nodded.

Delia calmed her mind. Holding Linley's hand, staring at the peaceful waters of the lake, he slowly said, "Linley. When I received my clan letter saying that I should return, I found, after I returned. There's absolutely nothing wrong with him. ”

Linley frowned.

When Delia wrote him a letter saying that her grandmother was in excellent condition, Linley already sensed that something was hidden.

“After that, I learned that my parents knew from Master that the reason I stayed in the Kingdom of O'Brien was to be with you. So, my parents used this scheme to get me to come back and separate from you. "Delia laughed bitterly as she looked at Linley. “This scheme is very sloppy, but I still like it. ”

Linley. "Your parents…"

"That's for the clan. ”

Delia sighed. "Before you start your own side in the Anarchic Lands, almost everyone in the six major powers believed you were a member of the O'Brien Empire. The O'Brien Empire and the Yulan Empire had always viewed each other as major rivals. ”

Linley understood. The most powerful forces in the Yulan continent were these two Empires.

“In the opinion of my parents, if I marry you, then it would be tantamount to colluding and allying with an important Saint of the enemy. The Emperor of the Yulan Empire will have less confidence in our clan. My mom and dad don't want me to be with you. ”

Delia glanced at Linley. “But of course, this is just my parents' opinion. They do not know .. that we have never discussed marriage. ”

Linley could only rub his nose.

Delia said hesitantly, “The imperial capital is filled with people chasing me, and my parents keep trying to persuade me to marry someone else. I don't want to! I really hate that! Linley ... I really want to go immediately and come looking for you, but I don't want to break the relationship between me and my parents. I love my parents so much! ”

"I understand," said Linley consolingly.

Of course he understood how Delia felt. This was because he was also a man who valued his relatives and parents.

“I really want to come find you, but I don't want to lose my parents either. "Delia bit her lip, lowering her voice. Linley could clearly feel that Delia was squeezing her hand even tighter now.

Linley rested Delia's hand on his leg.

Delia glanced at Linley, a slight smile appearing on her face. "I'm waiting .. waiting for you to find your Duchy. But my parents said that I should marry the Emperor of the Yulan Empire and become the Queen. ”

"Hmm?" Linley felt a hint of anger in his heart.

Delia's parents really went too far.

“I don't want to. At the time, I was angry with my parents. "Delia shook her head helplessly. “I have always been a filial and obedient child in front of my parents. But at that moment, I completely lost my patience. I told my father clearly that I would rather die than marry those people. ”

Linley felt a feeling of gratitude in his heart. For a woman to be willing to do this is heartwarming.

“I was waiting .. and finally, the letter I was waiting for arrived. You have founded Baruch Duchy. "Delia looked at Linley. “At that time, I was very excited. My parents will no longer prevent us from being together. "Linley was very happy too.

"But when I delivered this news to my parents . they once again advised me to marry the Emperor. "A bitter expression on Delia's face.

"How could they be like that?" Linley's face changed.

For them to act like this .. Linley could really understand how Delia felt.

"Right, how could they be like that?" Delia's eyes stared sadly at them. “I go to them happily, but I don't expect this will be the result. Actually ... I should have estimated it. My father is the leader of our clan. Of course he had to think about things from the clan's point of view. In his eyes, the Emperor was extremely talented and had a high status. Marrying him would also be beneficial to the clan. Marrying His Majesty is absolutely perfect. But ...he never considered things from my point of view. ”

Delia took a deep breath. "So. I don't spend any more time in vain hope. ”

Delia looked at Linley. “I just came. I don't bother talking about it with my parents. I left the imperial capital and came to find you. ”

Seeing the look in Delia's eyes, Linley, in his heart, had a strong wave of emotions .. he felt moved, sad, and satisfied!

"Delia ..." Linley wanted to say something, but those words got stuck in his throat and wouldn't come out.

The girl in front of him …

For her sake, she had waited ten years alone.

For the sake of the man, she could ignore the temptation of becoming Empress.

To him, he even left his beloved parents and went alone to this place to find him.

… .

Linley suddenly felt a strong sense of humiliation. He suddenly felt that he really hated himself, really hated himself!

"She's female. He sacrificed so much for you, but from beginning to end, you have never even. "Linley berated herself mentally.

“What am I waiting for? What should I doubt? ”

He looked into Delia's eyes. Delia always made her feelings very clear, and was always waiting for her. But today, Linley knew that he could no longer hesitate. He kept hesitating for so long …

What he got was already very valuable.

“He gave up everything and waited ten years. And he's still waiting .. without an appointment from me. "Linley saw tears in the corner of Delia's eyes. Her heart twitched violently, and she howled to herself, “Do you want Delia to wait forever? Until one day his heart dies and he goes alone? "

Linley felt a piercing pain in his heart.

“Crunch. ”

The layer of ice surrounding Linley's heart finally shattered and melted.

Linley did not want to wait any longer.

He didn't want to make himself wait!

And he also did not want to make Delia wait!

"Linley, what's wrong?" Seeing the look on Linley's face, he couldn't help but feel worried.

Linley suddenly extended his hand and held Delia on his shoulder. Delia could feel her heart begin to thump. Linley looked at Delia, took a deep breath, then said seriously, "Delia .. marry me!"

Delia's eyes turned like the moon as she stared at Linley in shock.

After these words came out, in Linley's consciousness, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, illuminating every scene that had been shared with Delia. Ever since they first met at the Ernst Institute and he had seen the beautiful girl. They spent time together as children. Goodbye kiss that night at Wushan Township …

One scene after another.

He felt a warm feeling in his heart.

With a wife like this, what else does she need?

"Linley's. "Delia cleared her throat, looking at Linley with wide eyes. "What did you just say? Can you say it again? Would please? ”Delia's voice vibrates.

Linley looked at Delia. One word at a time, he said to her, "Delia. Marry me! Marry me, Linley. Be with me forever, and don't let us be apart. All righty? "Linley's voice also shook. At this moment, Linley was feeling extremely nervous.

True Nervous.

Delia looked into Linley's eyes. Suddenly, her tears flowed out.

How long has it been?

How long has he been waiting for today?

Even when they were children and their affection was a bit unclear, he hoped this day would come one day. Hoping that Linley would become a knight in armor.

One day after another, he had been waiting …

That year, she was just a little girl in her teens. But now, he was already twenty-eight years old. More than ten years have passed. Whether it was when Linley and Alice had been together, or when Linley had been missing for ten years, or when his parents had stopped them from being together, he had not given up.

The only thing he was afraid of was …

Linley left!

He's always waiting. He did not even dare to force Linley to give him an appointment!

"Are you ready?" Looking at Delia's entire face in tears, Linley felt extremely touched and moved.

Delia suddenly threw herself into Linley's arms, wrapped her arms around him tightly and said repeatedly into Linley's ears, "I'm willing, I'm willing, I'm willing …"

Linley could feel the warmth from Delia's body. In his heart, he felt more satisfied than he had ever had in the past.
