Harry is an old man rescued by Miss Milan in her early years, when the kind-hearted Milan saw an old man who had passed out in the snow and had him thrown into the wagon loaded with goods. Later, Milan married Thangka Tariq, and Harry followed, as well as a little girl named Jamiri, and they are now the closest people to Delin.

Delin walked towards the conference room under the steward's lead, while Harry followed Delin with two wind guards, Kate and Ramour. In their eyes, the heavily guarded marquis's palace was not safe.

The candles in the hall illuminated the figures inside. Delin was the last to arrive. Dorry and Burke sat on either side of the long table. There was only one position left, on Dori's left-hand side.

"What a face! let so many of us wait for him!" Before Delin could sit down, he heard a sneer, spoken by a young man about his own age. Delin knew him, he was the son of his second uncle, Takars, and the other party bullied his former "self" a lot.

Dori apparently heard it too, but nothing happened. As soon as the words came out, Delin immediately became the focus of everyone in the conference room. Delin straightened his gown, sat down leisurely, and kept his mouth shut, as if nothing had happened.

"Alright, now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting!" Burke began to preside over the meeting, his eyes lingering on Dori for a moment, but the latter did not react, so he continued, "I have summoned you to the clan meeting today, and the reason you know is that it is the trial of adulthood for you little ones. Originally, this was an ordinary trial, but because of what happened to Delin before......" Burke solemnly scanned all the grandchildren's doors, and then continued: "It wasn't an accident! It's the other families that are targeting our Tariq family! Tarkals, you're still in the mood for infighting! What I can tell you is that if Delin doesn't successfully complete the trial, or if something happens, our Tariq family will lose the qualification to inherit the marquis! The purpose of having you here is to tell you that you must practice hard for the next month or so to ensure that Delin and yourselves complete the trial smoothly!

As a level 15 earth warrior, Burke spoke loudly, imposingly, and with a kind of majesty. But at this time, Takars's face was extremely ugly, he just said that Delin's face is big, Delin's face is really big, and it was given by his own grandfather, and the eyes staring at Delin are even more resentful.

"Delin, do you have the confidence to complete the trial on your own?" said Dori.

"There's no hope for Ichisei, Grandpa Dori! let alone do it independently, even under their protection, I don't have any confidence. Delin replied very seriously.

Dorry was surprised by Delin's answer, and he had expected the boy to say something like "I don't need their protection." That's when Dori realized that he knew and cared for him too little. He looked at Delin, and Delin looked at Dori seriously. Finally Dori looked away, waved his hand and called his attendant, who obeyed the order and walked out.

For Delin's words, the others were angry and contemptuous in their hearts, if it weren't for Burke's majestic aura to calm down, I'm afraid someone would have rushed over and Delin pressed to the ground to teach him a lesson.

"Delin, tell me what you think. Burke Road.

"Okay, Grandpa Burke. First of all, needless to say, my combat strength, even if I encounter a first-level jungle boar, I have to escape. As for them, if united, they will definitely not be able to defeat each other, we are almost fighting with all the other nobles in Alan City, they have the advantage of numbers and strength, not to mention, I don't have the ability to unite them, do I?" Delin said objectively, without paying the other people's surprised eyes to heart.

Delin's performance subverted his previous image in the eyes of everyone, in their eyes, Delin should be a fool, a madman, how could he know so much?!

"My dear Delin, what is the matter with you, how are you ......" Dori's emotions became agitated, and his words were full of surprise.

"Yes, Grandpa Dori, this injury and crawling back from the brink of death has taught me a truth: if my existence hinders the interests of other people, whether I am a fool or not, they will design to get rid of me. They care about their own interests and do not feel the slightest pity for my weakness. Delin didn't care about the surprise of others, and continued, "Only strong strength can make them feel afraid, and strength is the best guarantee of interests." Grandpa Dori, in fact, if it weren't for the estrangement between you and Grandpa Burke, would others dare to covet the interests of the Tariq family? Two grandfathers, look at the entire Alan City, apart from our Tariq family, whose patriarch is the highest combat power of the family? No! Because they are not very talented, they will be assigned to deal with these trivial matters, because it will waste their time, and time is the most precious thing in the world. I think that even if the Tariq family doesn't have as deep a background as theirs, my grandfather is still in the family, and he won't pay attention to those things. ”

Silence, deathly silence, usually stupid that Delin is not a fool?! but pretended! and criticized the two patriarchs at the clan meeting!

The eerie atmosphere didn't end until Dori's attendants returned to the conference room after their errands. Some people speculated that Delin would be severely punished, and some people thought that he would be rewarded, but no one expected that this clan meeting would end so hastily. Dorry and Burke didn't say anything about Delin's performance.

Back in his small courtyard, old Harry kept thinking and couldn't sleep. Delin, who grew up watching him since he was a child, actually knows so much. He remembered the incident again, and shook his head again, thinking that it was impossible. The only thing that can be gratified is that the hard work of the year was not in vain, and he once thought that the gain was not proportional to the effort. The price is too great, but the value is sometimes the most unreliable thing, just like a broken crockpot that can sometimes be sold for a thousand gold.

Neither Dorry nor Burke slept, each reminiscing about the past in their rooms, from the intimacy of childhood, to the differences in ideas and beliefs, and finally almost to the point of fire. Is it really worth being so true about right and wrong? Is it really true that power trumps feelings?

Burke, who was reminiscing, suddenly received a report from his henchman, and left the room with a sneer, and then turned to other places halfway.

That night, the name of Delin Tariq was once again on the desks of many nobles, and there were shocks, sneers, and ridicules.

The next afternoon, Delin was unsurprisingly called over by Dori.

"Sit down!" was Dori's practice room and bedroom, and there was a faint fragrance permeating the room, making people feel calm, and Dori had obviously just finished meditating.

"What you said yesterday was very true, but it was a bit out of place in that situation. Do you know why?" said Dori with a faint smile.

"Did you make the two grandfathers lose face?"

"No...... No, but a lot of people were there at the time, and not everyone's loyalty can be trusted. It's dangerous for you to do that. Dori said solemnly.

"Whether I do it or not, they already see me as a dead man. Delin didn't care at all.

"But!the better you behave!The harder they will strike! The more dangerous you will be!" The scent also loses its proper effect at this point.

"Oh! it's okay, if only I didn't participate then!"

"No, you have to participate, it's a matter of family dignity. Of course, we have something for you. As he spoke, Dori handed over a ring, "This was meant to be given to you last night, it contains a coming-of-age gift from your father, and some of the things we prepared for you to defend yourself." There is also good news for you, your grandfather Burke has advanced to the Sky Knight after taking the Dragon Life Potion last night. Don't tell anyone about it. ”

Delin held the ring, and there was a special feeling, it was a kind of sadness that welled up in his heart, which made his nose instantly sore, and almost tears.

"Don't you know how to use it?" Dorry looked at the hesitant Delin, and also noticed the tears in his eyes.

"I know. Delin took the ring in his palm and walked out slowly.

Dori looked at his back, his heart was congested with sour emotions, and he felt the urge to cry, if the thangka was still ......

After Delin's outburst of infinite sadness in that moment, there was more of a doubt and confusion.

He didn't know what was wrong.
