The Fragrant Pavilion Road was fill

The Fragrant Pavilion Road was filled with people, but Yale, George, and Reynolds clearly and distinctly could tell who a certain female was, not too far away from them. Since Linley and Alice had been together for a long time now, Yale, George, and Reynolds had all been formally introduced to Alice. Naturally, they recognized her.

“It’s Alice.” George said in a low voice.

Right at this moment, Alice was walking hand-in-hand with another young man, a hint of a smile on her face. If Linley was here, he would definitely have been able to recognize that this young man was Kalan.

“Bastard.” A murderous look was on Yale’s face.

Reynolds was furious as well. “These past two months, Linley has been going to her home time and time again, waiting bitterly for her. He’s been recording all of his activities down in a memory crystal as well, like an idiot. And he even told us that in the future, he was going to marry this Alice. F*ck this!”

“In what way is our Third Bro not worthy of her?” George was starting to get upset as well.

Yale let out a sneer. “It’s not convenient for us to interfere. We’ll go to the Jade Water Paradise, and we’ll talk to Third Bro about it when he’s back. The most important thing for us to do now is to help Third Bro mentally prepare for this. If he doesn’t prepare? I’m afraid that he won’t be able to take this blow.”

George and Reynolds all nodded as well.

……

Within their private room at the Jade Water Paradise, Yale, George, and Reynolds all sat, frowns on their faces. They didn’t ask for any courtesans to accompany them, and the only thing in their cups was juice. They were afraid that they might get drunk, and would not behave appropriately when dealing with Linley.

“I know Third Bro all too well.” George said worriedly. “He normally doesn’t say much, and he’s very hard working as well. There are so many girls at our school who are pursuing him. He’s never accepted a single one of them. But a guy like him, once he falls for someone, he will fall much harder than you, Boss, or you, Fourth Bro.”

Yale and Reynolds both nodded.

To Yale and Reynolds, losing a girl just meant getting a new one. It was no big deal at all. But in this past year, every day, when they were joking with Linley, they could tell from Linley’s reactions that he had really developed genuine feelings for Alice.

“This is pissing me off.” Yale drank all the juice in his cup at one go.

Reynolds snorted. “Boss Yale, don’t be too pissed. It’s just a girl. Third Bro will be in a lot of pain this time, but after he’s over it, everything will be fine.”

Yale nodded as well.

Yale, Reynolds, and George were all members of large clans, and thus they were influenced accordingly since youth. For Reynolds and George, it wasn’t too bad, as their clans had strict rules. But Yale had been buried in women since he was a kid.

Time passed on, one second at a time, one minute at a time. Yale and the others all sat there quietly.

One in the morning. With a creak, the door swung open. Linley walked in, reeking of wine. “Hey. All of you guys are still here?”

Yale laughed loudly. “We were waiting for you.”

“Third Bro, you weren’t waiting for that Alice this entire time, were you?” George said in an intentionally casual manner.

Linley nodded silently, and then sat down. “You guys aren’t drinking alcohol tonight?” Bending down, Linley retrieve a flagon of strong liquor from a chest, and immediately poured himself a cup.

“Third Bro, we need to talk to you about something.” Yale said with a grin.

“Talk.” Linley was in a very foul mood.

Yale said softly, “Tonight, when we were on the streets, we saw a girl. She looked a lot like your Alice. Honestly. We were a bit far away, so we couldn’t clearly tell. But that girl was holding hands with another guy.”

“Lies.” Linley said in a steely tone that brooked no argument.

Yale couldn’t help but start.

Reynolds clapped Linley on the shoulder with a laugh. “Third Bro. We’re all men. As men, how can we let women ride on our heads? Alice hasn’t shown up several times now. If I were you, I would’ve thrown her off a long time ago. Even if she knelt in front of me, I wouldn’t pay her any mind.”

“Fourth Bro, you’re just a punk ass kid. What would you know?” Linley said with a laugh, and then he drank a large cup of liquor. “Come, enough chitchat. I’m in a foul mood. Drink with me.”

Reynolds, Yale, and George all exchanged glances. They couldn’t do anything besides sit down and drink with Linley.

Early next morning, Linley, Yale, George, and Reynolds were all sleeping, stretched across the table. Linley was the first one to wake up.

Seeing his three dear friends, a bitter smile was on Linley’s face. In his heart, he murmured to himself, “Boss Yale, Second Bro, Fourth Bro…all of you accompanied me in drinking and said so many words of encouragement to me. I understand what you guys are thinking. For Alice to miss our appointment these past two, three times, I too had a bad feeling, but…I don’t believe it. I’m not willing to.”

Linley walked over to the window, looking down.

It was five or six in the early morning. The city of Fenlai seemed to have just woken up as well. Only a small number of people were walking about, preparing to work. The vast majority of people were still sleeping.

“Linley.” Doehring Cowart flew out from within the Coiling Dragon ring.

Doehring Cowart was forever dressed in those pristine, long white robes. His white beard was forever long.

“Grandpa Doehring.” Upon seeing Doehring Cowart appear, Linley suddenly felt as though he himself was a lonely boat that had finally reached the harbor.

Glancing at the sleeping dorm mates, Doehring Cowart laughed. “Linley, you have three really good friends. As far as the affairs of the heart between men and women? I can only say this. In the 1300 years when I was alive, from what I’ve seen, perhaps only one time out of ten would I see a person’s be successful in his first love.”

“Grandpa Doehring, I get it.” Linley barely nodded. “But…I trust her.”

Doehring Cowart nodded as well. He no longer spoke.

….

In the middle of November, Linley put on his backpack, making sure to secure the two memory crystals within, and then headed towards Fenlai City again, once more arriving at the two story house.

“Uncle Hudd, has Alice come back yet?” Linley said courteously to the guard named Hudd.

Hudd shook his head. “No. It’s been over a month since Miss Alice has come back. She hasn’t returned a single time.”

“Not a single time?” Linley frowned, furrows appearing in his forehead. “Then Uncle Hudd, I’ll head out now.” Linley courteously bid farewell.

Walking alone on the Dry Road, Linley walked over to the bar, but did not enter. Bebe mentally said to him, “Boss, don’t be so worried. For Alice to not appear, maybe she just has some important things going on? For example, maybe she went to do training. That’s always a possibility. Don’t stand here thinking idle thoughts.”

“Right. Maybe she’s busy dealing with something and can’t get free.” Linley’s eyes suddenly became alive again.

Seeing this, Bebe couldn’t help but wrinkle his little nose. “Boss, you are so love-struck that you’ve gone dumb. Just a few words of encouragement and you’re incredibly excited.”

“You little punk. No alcohol for you today, as punishment.” Linley didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

But Linley also had to admit that after joking around with Bebe, his mood improve a little.

……

November 29th. This was a blizzard day, and snow covered everything in white. Linley, Reynolds, Yale, and George were all seated within a carriage. The driver was someone belonging to Yale’s merchant clan, and behind them there were several knights escorting Linley’s sculptures.

“Third Bro. In the next few days, the end-of-the-year exams will be coming. I wonder if that fellow who was once proclaimed the number one genius of our institute has become a magus of the sixth rank yet.” Yale chuckled.

George and Reynolds were all extremely proud.

Because in the previous week? Linley had reached the realm of the sixth rank.

In truth, Linley had reached the fourth rank when he was 13, the 5th rank when he was 14, and by now, he was almost 17. After two and a half years, Linley finally made the transition from being a magus of the fifth rank to the sixth rank.

Two and a half years!

What about that Dixie, who was previously regarded as the ultimate genius of the Institute?

Dixie became a magus of the fifth rank when he was twelve, but now he’s also around seventeen. It’s been five years. Honestly speaking, Dixie’s progression was also extremely fast. However, in comparison with Linley, who was assisted by the Straight Chisel School’s technique of stonecarving, he was much slower.

If, at the end-of-the-year exams, Linley had reached the sixth rank while Dixie had not, then Linley would be known as the indisputable number one genius of the Ernst Institute.

“Third Bro, try and smile. Becoming a magus of the sixth rank is something you should be happy about.” Reynolds said encouragingly.

Linley quirked his lips.

“You call that a smile?” Reynolds intentionally tried to tease Linley.

Linley finally let out a smile. “Alright, Fourth Bro, let me be quiet for a while.” Linley had already decided that this time, no matter what, he was going to meet Alice. If he couldn’t see her in Fenlai City, he would go directly to the Wellen Institute to look for her.”

No matter what, he had to have a face-to-face with Alice and sort things out.

Opening the carriage window, Linley let a cold gust of air inside. He couldn’t help but squint. Outside, everything was blanketed in white, and the sky itself was filled with feather-like plumes of snow. While enjoying the winter scenery, the time passed quickly, and they arrived at Fenlai City.

Jalan harum Pavilion dipenuhi dengan orang-orang, tapi Yale, George dan Reynolds jelas dan jelas bisa mengatakan yang laki-laki tertentu, tidak terlalu jauh dari mereka. Karena Linley dan Alice telah bersama untuk waktu yang lama sekarang, Yale, George dan Reynolds semua telah secara resmi diperkenalkan kepada Alice. Tentu saja, mereka mengakui dirinya."Itu adalah Alice." George mengatakan dengan suara rendah.Tepat pada saat ini, Alice sedang berjalan di tangan dengan pemuda lain, sedikit senyum di wajahnya.

"Dua bulan terakhir, Linley telah terjadi ke rumahnya waktu dan waktu lagi, menunggu pahit. Ia telah merekam semua kegiatan nya turun di crystal memori juga, seperti idiot. Dan ia bahkan mengatakan bahwa di masa mendatang, ia akan menikah dengan Alice ini. F * ck ini! ""Dalam apa cara Apakah Bro kami ketiga tidak layak nya?" George mulai marah juga.Yale mengeluarkan mencemooh. "Hal ini tidak mudah bagi kita untuk mengganggu. Kami akan pergi ke surga air Jade, dan kita akan berbicara untuk Bro ketiga tentang itu ketika dia kembali. Hal yang paling penting kita lakukan sekarang adalah untuk membantu ketiga Bro mental mempersiapkan untuk ini. Jika ia tidak mempersiapkan? Aku takut bahwa dia tidak akan mampu mengambil pukulan ini."George dan Reynolds mengangguk juga.……Dalam kamar pribadi mereka di Jade air Paradise, Yale, George dan Reynolds semua duduk, mengerutkan dahi di wajah mereka. Mereka tidak meminta apapun courtesans untuk menemani mereka, dan satu-satunya hal dalam cangkir mereka adalah jus. Mereka yang takut bahwa mereka mungkin mendapatkan mabuk, dan akan tidak berperilaku tepat ketika berhadapan dengan Linley."Aku tahu Bro ketiga semua terlalu baik." George mengatakan worriedly. "Dia biasanya tidak berkata banyak, dan dia sangat sulit bekerja juga. Ada begitu banyak gadis di sekolah kami yang sedang mengejar dia. Dia tidak pernah memiliki menerima satu dari mereka. Tetapi seorang pria seperti dia, setelah ia jatuh untuk seseorang, ia akan jatuh jauh lebih sulit daripada Anda, bos, atau Anda, keempat bro"Yale dan Reynolds mengangguk.Yale dan Reynolds, kehilangan seorang gadis hanya berarti mendapatkan yang baru. Itu tidak masalah sama sekali. Tetapi dalam tahun terakhir ini, setiap hari, ketika mereka sedang bercanda dengan Linley, mereka bisa tahu dari reaksi Linley's bahwa ia benar-benar telah mengembangkan perasaan asli Alice."Ini adalah membuatku jengkel." Yale minum semua jus nya Piala pada satu pergi.Reynolds mendengus. "Bos Yale, tidak terlalu marah. Hal ini hanya seorang gadis. Ketiga Bro akan di banyak rasa sakit saat ini, tetapi setelah ia lebih dari itu, segala sesuatu akan baik-baik."Yale mengangguk juga.Yale, Reynolds dan George semua anggota klan besar, dan dengan demikian mereka dipengaruhi sesuai sejak muda. Untuk Reynolds dan George, itu tidak terlalu buruk, karena suku-suku mereka memiliki aturan ketat. Tapi Yale telah dikuburkan di perempuan sejak dia masih kecil.Waktu berlalu, satu detik pada satu waktu, satu menit pada suatu waktu. Yale dan lain-lain semua duduk dengan tenang.Satu di pagi hari. Dengan berderit, pintu berayun terbuka. Linley berjalan di, berbau anggur. "Hei. Kalian semua masih di sini?"Yale tertawa keras. "Kami sedang menunggu untuk Anda.""Ketiga Bro, Anda tidak menunggu yang Alice seluruh waktu, kau?" George mengatakan secara sengaja kasual.Linley mengangguk diam-diam, dan kemudian duduk. "Kalian tidak minum alkohol malam ini?" Membengkokkan, Linley mengambil dibagikannya minuman keras dari dada, dan segera menuang cangkir."Ketiga Bro, kita perlu untuk berbicara dengan Anda tentang sesuatu." Yale berkata dengan senyum."Bicara." Linley pada suasana hati yang sangat busuk.Yale berkata lembut, "malam ini, ketika kami berada di jalan-jalan, kami melihat seorang gadis. Dia tampak banyak seperti Alice Anda. Jujur. Kami adalah agak jauh, jadi kita jelas tidak bisa mengatakan. "Tapi gadis itu memegang tangan dengan pria lain.""Kebohongan." Linley mengatakan dalam nada steely yang brooked tidak ada argumen.Yale tidak bisa membantu tetapi mulai.Reynolds bertepuk tangan Linley di bahu dengan tertawa. "Ketiga Bro. Kami akan semua orang. Laki-laki, bagaimana dapat kita membiarkan perempuan naik di kepala kita? Alice belum muncul beberapa kali sekarang. Kalau aku jadi kau, aku akan telah terlempar padanya lama. Bahkan jika ia berlutut di depan saya, saya tidak akan membayar dia pikiran apapun.""Keempat Bro, kau hanya seorang anak punk keledai. Apa Apakah Anda tahu?" Linley kata dengan tertawa, dan kemudian dia minum secangkir besar minuman keras. "Datanglah, Diary cukup. Saya dalam suasana hati busuk. Minum dengan saya."Reynolds, Yale, dan George semua bertukar pandang. Mereka tidak bisa melakukan sesuatu selain duduk dan minum dengan Linley.Awal pagi esoknya, Linley, Yale, George dan Reynolds semua tidur, membentang di atas meja. Linley adalah yang pertama untuk bangun.Melihat nya tiga teman-teman, senyum pahit adalah Linley di wajah. Dalam hatinya, ia bersungut kepada dirinya sendiri, "bos Yale, Bro kedua, keempat Bro...all Anda menemani saya di minum dan berkata begitu banyak kata-kata dorongan kepada saya. Aku mengerti apa yang kalian pikirkan. Untuk Alice untuk melewatkan janji kita ini selama dua, tiga kali, saya juga punya firasat buruk, tapi... Aku tidak percaya itu. Aku tidak mau."Linley berjalan ke jendela, melihat ke bawah.Itu lima atau enam di pagi hari. Kota Fenlai tampaknya baru saja terbangun juga. Hanya sejumlah kecil orang berjalan tentang, bersiap-siap untuk bekerja. Sebagian besar orang-orang masih tidur."Linley." Doehring Cowart terbang keluar dari dalam cincin melingkar naga.Doehring Cowart selamanya mengenakan jubah mereka murni, putih panjang. Janggut putih adalah selamanya panjang."Kakek Doehring." Setelah melihat Doehring Cowart muncul, Linley tiba-tiba merasa seolah-olah ia sendiri adalah perahu kesepian yang akhirnya mencapai pelabuhan.Melirik belahan asrama tidur, Doehring Cowart tertawa. "Linley, Anda memiliki tiga teman-teman yang benar-benar baik. Sejauh urusan jantung antara pria dan wanita? Aku hanya bisa mengatakan ini. 1300 tahun ketika saya masih hidup, dari apa yang kulihat, mungkin hanya satu kali dari sepuluh akan saya melihat seseorang berhasil dalam cinta pertamanya.""Kakek Doehring, aku mengerti." Linley nyaris mengangguk. "Tapi... Aku percaya padanya."Doehring Cowart mengangguk juga. Dia tidak lagi berbicara.….Di bulan November, Linley meletakkan di ransel, memastikan untuk menjamin kristal dua memori dalam, dan kemudian menuju kota Fenlai lagi, sekali lagi tiba di rumah dua lantai."Paman Hudd, memiliki Alice kembali belum?" Linley berkata sopan kepada penjaga bernama Hudd.Hudd menggelengkan kepala. "No. Sudah lebih dari sebulan sejak Miss Alice telah kembali. Ia belum kembali satu waktu.""Tidak satu waktu?" Linley mengerutkan kening, alur-alur yang muncul di dahinya. "Kemudian paman Hudd, aku akan kepala keluar sekarang." Linley sopan tawaran perpisahan.Berjalan sendirian di jalan Dry, Linley berjalan ke bar, tetapi tidak masuk. Bebe mental berkata kepadanya, "bos, jangan begitu khawatir. Untuk Alice tidak muncul, mungkin dia hanya memiliki beberapa hal penting yang terjadi? Misalnya, mungkin dia pergi untuk melakukan pelatihan. Itulah selalu kemungkinan. Jangan berdiri di sini berpikir pikiran menganggur.""Benar. Mungkin dia sibuk berurusan dengan sesuatu dan tidak bisa mendapatkan gratis." Linley's mata tiba-tiba menjadi hidup kembali.Melihat ini, Bebe tidak bisa membantu tetapi kerut hidungnya kecil. "Boss, Anda yang begitu love-struck bahwa Anda sudah bodoh. Hanya beberapa kata dorongan dan Anda akan sangat senang.""Anda sedikit punk. Tidak ada alkohol untuk Anda hari ini, sebagai hukuman. " Linley tidak tahu apakah untuk tertawa atau menangis.Tapi Linley juga harus mengakui bahwa setelah bercanda dengan Bebe, meningkatkan suasana hati sedikit.……Tanggal 29 November. Ini adalah hari badai salju, dan salju menutupi segala sesuatu dalam putih. Linley, Reynolds, Yale, dan George semua duduk dalam pengangkutan. Pengemudi adalah seseorang milik klan pedagang Yale, dan di belakang mereka ada beberapa ksatria yang mengawal Linley di patung."Ketiga Bro. Dalam beberapa hari berikutnya, ujian akhir-of-the-tahun akan datang. Saya heran jika yang sesama yang pernah dinyatakan jenius nomor satu institute kami telah menjadi magus peringkat keenam lagi." Yale terkekeh.George dan Reynolds itu semua sangat bangga.Karena dalam minggu sebelumnya? Linley telah mencapai bidang peringkat keenam.Sebenarnya, Linley telah mencapai peringkat keempat ketika ia berumur 13, peringkat 5 ketika ia berusia 14, dan sekarang, dia hampir 17. Setelah dua tahun, Linley akhirnya membuat transisi dari menjadi magus kedudukan kelima ke peringkat keenam.Dua setengah tahun!Apa tentang Dixie itu, yang sebelumnya dianggap sebagai jenius utama dari Institut?Dixie menjadi magus kedudukan kelima ketika dia dua belas, tapi sekarang dia adalah juga sekitar tujuh belas tahun. Sudah lima tahun. Jujur berbicara, Dixie's perkembangan ini juga sangat cepat. Namun, dibandingkan dengan Linley, yang dibantu oleh lurus pahat sekolah teknik sentra, dia adalah jauh lebih lambat.Jika, di ujian akhir-of-the-tahun, Linley telah mencapai peringkat keenam sementara Dixie tidak, maka Linley akan dikenal sebagai genius nomor satu tak terbantahkan dari Institut Ernst."Ketiga Bro, coba dan senyum. Menjadi magus peringkat keenam adalah sesuatu yang Anda harus senang." Reynolds berkata bahwa semangat.Linley quirked bibirnya."Anda menelepon itu tersenyum?" Reynolds sengaja mencoba untuk menggoda Linley.Linley akhirnya mengeluarkan senyum. "Baiklah, keempat Bro, biarkan aku menjadi tenang untuk sementara waktu." Linley sudah memutuskan bahwa saat ini, tidak peduli apa, ia akan bertemu Alice. Jika dia tidak bisa melihat dia di Fenlai kota, ia akan pergi langsung ke Institut Wellen untuk mencarinya."Tidak peduli apa, ia harus memiliki tatap muka dengan hal-hal yang Alice dan mengurutkan keluar.Membuka jendela kereta, Linley biarkan dingin embusan udara di dalam. Dia tidak bisa membantu tetapi juling. Di luar, semuanya diselimuti putih, dan langit itu sendiri penuh dengan bulu bulu-seperti salju. Sambil menikmati pemandangan musim dingin, waktu berlalu dengan cepat, dan mereka tiba di kota Fenlai.Setelah memberikan thr
