Episode 9: The Famous Underground Chapter 30 – Delia’s Protector

How could Master Longus not see that his disciple was concerned that Linley had lost his temper?

“Delia, it’s fine, don’t worry!”

Linley said with a smile, a wave of emotion still rising from Linley’s heart at Delia’s concern.

“En.”

Delia nodded.

Even so Delia couldn’t rest assured in the bottom of her heart, after all, the person fighting Linley was the Granite Sword Saint Hedson, who was known as the number one powerhouse of the Holy Realm. Longus looked at Linley, then at Delia, and smiled, ”You two old classmates haven’t seen each other for a long time, right, I won’t bother you here, I’m going to leave and go out for a stroll while you two have a good chat. I’m sure you both have a lot to say to each other after not seeing each other for ten years.”

Delia gave her teacher a grateful look.

Grandmaster Longus was clearly creating an opportunity for her to be alone with Linley.

With that, Grandmaster Longus left this courtyard with the earth bear, leaving only Linley, Delia, and the two magical beasts Bebe and Heilu in the courtyard.

Delia lowered her head and slowly stroked Bebe in her arms, she was waiting for Linley to open his eyes to see a beautiful woman hugging her pet, this scene was all so moving, but Linley’s heart was bitter, if it was against a Saint Domain powerhouse Linley wasn’t the least bit afraid, but for Delia, Linley’s heart was actually a bit complicated.

If there was a girl he was most familiar with among his peers, it was Delia.

After all, they had been together during their teenage years.

It was just that Linley wasn’t a wooden person. Delia’s meaning Linley could feel. Because of this, Linley was a little embarrassed. Especially now that he was alone with Delia.

“All these years, how’s it going?”

Linley was silent for a long time, squeezing out such a move of earthy words Delia looked up at Linley, but then puffed and laughed: “Linley, you’re already a Saint realm powerhouse. Why have you become so embarrassed? I’ve been fine all these years, I have a family and a teacher behind me, who would dare bully me?”

Delia’s string of words also caused Linley to relax a little.

“How did you come through all these years?”

Delia whispered.

“Not much.”

Linley seemed to recall these ten years, ten years ago, when he had learned that his father had died, he had defied all odds and resolved to take revenge rather than die.

On the road to revenge. He traveled farther and farther, and in the end, he did kill Clyde. But also because the six special deacons of the Illuminati surrounded him, making the closest Grandpa Delin’s soul fly away for him ……

Three years of hard training in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, nearly six years of submerged training in the O’Brien Empire. The battle with Steller. The battle with the six archangels. The match with MacKenzie……. A scene quickly swept through his mind while Linley narrated it to Delia unguardedly.

Delia’s hand stroking Bebe stopped, listening carefully to Linley’s every word.

At the moment, Linley was speaking in a breezy manner, as if he was relaxed. However, Delia could completely imagine Linley’s life over these last ten years, and after finishing, Linley sighed.

“Linley.”

Delia suddenly reached out and gripped Linley’s hand, holding it tightly!

Linley looked up at Delia in surprise, but Delia was staring at Linley, “Linley, don’t let yourself live too tired. You’ve already done well enough.”

Delia’s hands were a little cold.

But Linley felt the fluctuations coming from Delia’s hand. The fluctuations of a heartbeat. Feeling the fluctuations of the other party’s heartbeat, Linley felt a surge of warmth in the bottom of his heart, and the ice in his heart melted a little.

“Thank you.”

Linley whispered.

“Don’t say thank you to me.”

Delia shook her head. She looked at Linley with a burning gaze.

The atmosphere between the two of them became ambiguous for a moment, and without knowing what was going on, Linley felt his mind scrambling, one moment surfacing the things he had done with Alice back then, and the next moment surfacing the kiss that Delia had given that night. The heartbeat was also messed up – Linley actually had a feeling of panic.

“Bebe.”

Linley looked to Bebe, then whirled to Delia and said, “Delia, do you know how powerful Bebe is?”

In that atmosphere, the flustered Linley immediately changed the subject.

Linley didn’t know what would happen to him if that atmosphere continued.

Instinctively, Linley decided to change the subject.

Delia sighed in the bottom of her heart, she was good at things like diplomatic negotiations, and she naturally had a study of human psychology. Back when she was at the Ernst Magic Academy, she had begun to study the human psyche. That said, the initial reason for studying psychology was to figure out Linley.

Delia understood Linley very well.

She knew that after experiencing what happened to Alice, although Linley seemed to have forgotten Alice. But Delia knew that the impact of …… feelings was definitely not something that could be forgotten just by saying so.

First love was actually very fragile.

Especially for someone with a resolute personality like Linley, once he was truly in love, then he would value his first love much more than the average person. The failure of his first love had subconsciously actually caused Linley to have a shadow over falling in love.

Even if another girl approached him, Linley would be instinctively wary.

Delia understood that a layer of ice had already congealed in the bottom of Linley’s heart. To melt this layer of ice, it couldn’t be rushed, it could only be done step by step.

Delia loved Linley very much, and in her heart, she also cherished Linley.

Linley had suffered so much, his loved ones had left one by one, and at only twenty-seven years old, he was able to reach the peak of the Holy Realm. Achievement was high, but how much hardship was behind this achievement?

Delia, she really didn’t want Linley to be so tired anymore. For the sake of Linley, Delia was already prepared for a long time, she wasn’t afraid. As long as she could make it easier and happier for Linley. She would be satisfied.

“Delia, what’s on your mind?”

Linley saw that Delia had actually wandered off.

Delia instantly came to her senses and laughed, “Thinking about what? Thinking about you.”

Linley couldn’t help but be stunned. Seeing Linley’s expression, Delia laughed, “Jokingly.”

Linley laughed as well. “What did you just say about Bebe?”

Delia laughed.

“Bebe, a couple words for Delia?”

Linley laughed and looked at Bebe.

“Talk?”

Delia looked at Bebe in surprise, when the inconspicuous little Shadowmouse at the Ernst Magic Academy could talk? A magical beast that could talk, that was a holy domain magical beast.

Bebe directly jumped up. Jumped to the stone table, stood upright and raised his small head, said loudly: “Ms. Delia, tell you a secret, my boss in the magical beast mountain range, often talk to me about you. He even said that you forcefully kissed him in the beginning.”

“Slap!”

Linley slapped over, but Linley’s slap passed through Bebe’s body, it was a residual shadow!

Bebe stood in the air and smiled triumphantly at Linley.

“Bebe, you brat.”

Linley cried and laughed.

He’d never said anything about this before. This Beibei had actually said so.

“Bebe, be good, come to me.”

Delia, however, reached out and Bebe leapt into Delia’s arms. And then arched into Delia’s warm embrace. Enjoying herself, she even deliberately winked at Linley.

With Delia, Linley, Delia, plus Bebe often deliberately flirted with Linley and Delia, causing laughter to continue, which also caused time to fly by, not paying attention, and the sky gradually darkened.

Delia looked at the sky, and she thought about it. This evening. His Majesty Johan had also prepared a grand reception dinner for her.

“Linley, it’s getting late, I’m going to leave first. I have to attend a dinner party that His Majesty Joanne is preparing this evening.”

Delia apologized.

Linley nodded slightly, “I won’t stay then.”

“Are you going tonight?”

Delia suddenly asked.

“Me?”

Linley laughed, “Then His Majesty Joanne didn’t invite me, and I’m not much of a fan of banquets, so forget it.”

Delia nodded slightly.

In fact, how could His Majesty Joanne not invite Linley? It was just that Walden had declined for his brother, and he knew that Linley didn’t like parties or dealing with those nobles.

“See you later.”

Delia whispered.

“Bye.”

Linley looked at Delia as well.

Delia stumbled for a moment before taking a step to leave the courtyard, and even glanced back at Linley as she walked outside. It was evening, the sky was dark, the evening wind was blowing, and as Delia turned her head to look at Linley this time, her hair and skirt fluttered up with the wind.

A smile back was indeed a hundred winks.

Watching the beautiful woman leave, disappearing around the corner of the roadway, Linley, however, stood in place not knowing what he was thinking.

“Brother, what are you looking at?”

Walden came over at this time and laughed, “It’s time for dinner.”

“Your big brother is thinking about sex!”

Bebe’s little head emerged from behind Linley. Bright, and at this moment within the palace, a grand banquet was in progress, that the court musicians were playing beautiful music, and the men and women were displaying their beautiful dance steps in the center of the hall.

Delia was sitting at the edge of the hall on a seat against the wall, and next to her was the Wild Thunder Blast Eagle. The main character today was Delia. After all, this banquet was to welcome her.

However, Delia, apart from saying a few words at the beginning with His Majesty Joanne and singing a beautiful song, then she went to the side to rest because she was not feeling well. A handsome noble youth walked up to Delia, and with what he thought was the most gracious smile on his face, he slightly bowed and politely said, “May I ask the beautiful Miss Delia, do I have the honor of inviting you to a dance?”

“I’m sorry, I’m not feeling well.”

Delia shook her head.

The noble youth could only regretfully retreat, not feeling well? Lying to hell, many girls who didn’t want to accept someone else’s dance were this sentence. And Delia was a seventh level magician, how could she be physically uncomfortable so easily?

In the distance, there were several noble youths looking at Delia.

“How many is this?”

Scott asked with a smile to the noble youth next to him.

“The eighth one.”

The noble youth said with a smile.

“What eighth?”

Marquis Kiefer, who had just walked down from the dance floor, came over with a smile, and at the moment, Marquis Kiefer was in a springtime mood.

Indeed, the other Marquis Kiefer was the son of Prince Yulin. The Prince’s first heir. In the future, he will be the controller of the entire Southeast Province! This is a great position. More honorable than a prince who can’t be an emperor. Naturally, many noble ladies want to become the wife of Marquis Kiefer.

Unfortunately, many noble ladies went to Marquis Kiefer’s bed, but could not get anything.

“I’m talking to His Highness about Miss Delia, today there have been eight consecutive people who went to invite Miss Delia to dance, but unfortunately they all failed. It seems that everyone else is losing confidence. All of them don’t dare to go and invite.”

That noble youth laughed.

Scott laughed and looked at Marquis Kiefer, “What, Cousin Kiefer, you want to try?”

Marquis Kiefer nodded confidently, “Isn’t it just one dance? Watch me.”

Marquis Kiefer smiled as he walked towards Delia, his smile was that bright.

“Miss Delia.”

Marquis Kiefer walked over to Delia, “Would I have the honor of asking you for a dance?”

“I’m sorry, I’m not feeling well.”

Delia replied in the same way.

The Marquis of Kiefer took a seat consciously, while experienced enough to keep a small distance from Delia, a distance that wasn’t too long, yet didn’t make the other feel threatened.

“You’re not feeling well, you should have gotten some rest.”

Marquis Kiefer was experienced in love affairs and naturally knew how to go about it. With a girl, if there was physical contact, at least it would be easier to get close to each other.

As for how the limbs should touch ……

“Ah, Ms. Delia, you have …… on your shoulder.”

Speaking out of his mouth, Marquis Kiefer directly reached out to touch Delia’s shoulder now.

But before the word dust could be uttered-“Ah!”

Marquis Kiefer let out a piercing cry of pain that resounded throughout the hall, and everyone looked over, even His Majesty Joanne, who was chatting with the Empire’s Left Minister from afar, was attracted over.

“What’s going on?”

His Majesty Qiao An immediately walked over.

“My hand, my hand!”

Marquis Kiefer was on the verge of crying, there was a large hole on the back of his hand, a large chunk of flesh was gone and blood kept flowing, staining the ground red.

Delia hurriedly stood up and said, “Your Majesty Joanne, I’m sorry, teacher he told the Maniacal Thunder Blast Eagle to protect me, and anything that is going to touch my body and is a threat, the Maniacal Thunder Blast Eagle will go and attack. I just hadn’t reacted before the Maniacal Thunder Blizzard Eagle pecked me in one go.”

Everyone looked at the Maniacal Thunder Blizzard Eagle next to them.

The Berserk Thunder Blizzard Eagle was holding a large piece of meat on its pointed beak, which was still dripping with blood. The Maniacal Thunder Blizzard Eagle swallowed the meat in one bite, while those golden eagle eyes stared at Marquis Kiefer.
