Darryl smiled gently with his eyes steady on Jack. "I've already given you my advice. It's up to you whether you want to listen to it or not. I do suggest that you think about it before doing anything rashly, though, otherwise you are going to regret it. It would be too late for you to get down on your knees and come begging for forgiveness then."Woah!The crowd went wild at Darryl's speech. "Has he lost his mind?""This guy has a death wish!""You..." Cheyenne panicked and pulled at him. "Stop messing around, okay?" They had a deal before they came here. Darryl wasn't supposed to get in the middle of the affair and still there he was, trying to be the hero. They were within the territory of the Raksasa Tribe with countless formidable Raksasa soldiers around them. Enraging them would only get them into trouble. Darry, on the other hand, didn't seem to be worried at all and gestured silently for her to calm herself down.Provoked by Darryl's words, Jack gritted out, "Not bad, brat, not

It's over! Cheyenne trembled in fear at the scene and she felt herself drowning in panic. Now that the queen of the Raksasa Tribe was here, their situation could only worsen from this point onward. Though as her master's sworn brother might be, he couldn't possibly take on the entire Raksasa Tribe."Your Majesty." Jack finally recovered from the initial shock and forced a smile in Natalie's direction. "It's nothing, really. There's a kid causing trouble around here, I will have this handled right away." Jack casted a look of contempt over to Darryl as he spoke. Darryl was from the Nine Continent and even though the Raksasa Tribe and the Nine Continents were no longer at war and had been coexisting in peace for over three years now, the people of the Raksasa Tribe still harbour a certain prejudice against people from the Nine Continents due to their history of being banished for thousands of years. Jack was certain that as their queen, Natalie was no exception to this. After all, the qu

"Ye-Yes." Jack nodded, hesitant at first but soon determination returned to his eyes. The Raksasa Tribe had always been united. He believed from the bottom of his heart that even if Natalie and Darryl had known one another, she would still be supportive of what Jack did once she understood the situation. Every single person in the hall held their breath in anticipation with one question in their mind: what would the queen choose to prioritize? She was the queen of the Raksasa Tribe at the end of the day and hence, was likely to prioritize the benefit of her people before anything. After all, this was Rock City, the territory of the Raksasa Tribe!Upon hearing the details, Natalie frowned thoughtfully. She had to agree that Jack was out of line this time. Jack, on the other hand, mistakened her expression as a silent approval and beamed triumphantly. He immediately barked orders at the Raksasa soldiers around him, "Take that brat and throw him into one of the cells."‘Bloody brat, so wh

Disappointed, Natalie forced a smile and said, "Alright then.", before leaving with the rest of her subordinates. The crowd in the trading hall simultaneously sighed a breath of relief as soon as she was gone, relieving them of the pressure they felt from the queen's powerful presence. That was about the time Cheyenne had completed all procedures needed for the trade. Just as promised by the queen, they were not charged any commission and instead managed to exchange a handsome amount of leather armors that were made and perfected by the Raksasa Tribe. Needless to say, the Yach Family could make a fortune out of this trade."Uncle!" Cheyenne walked over grinning from ear to ear while saying in excitement, "You were amazing! Who knew you would be friends with the Raksasa Queen! Seriously, who are you?"Darryl grinned at Cheyenne's curious expression and said, "I'm just an ordinary man who happens to know the queen.""Fine, don't tell me," Cheyenne pouted, her enticing features were made

"Oh yes, I need to imprint on it." Darryl remembered and hastily cut his finger, dripping his blood onto the dragon egg. Little did he realize that the soul within the dragon egg belonged to Jewel and she would have followed him for life even without imprinting.Instantly, a blinding light was emitted from the dragon egg that lit up the entire side hall, signalling the success of imprinting. A relieved smile appeared on Darryl's face but deep down, he was not overly thrilled as he was reminded of the scene where he imprinted Rocky ten years ago in an underground private room at the Incandescent Sect. He had thought at the time that Rocky would be by his side for the rest of his life, it was least expected for Rocky to end up getting killed in cold blood by Laura Hanson just as it was close to breakthrough to its peak strength. He had shared so much with Rocky that it was no longer an enchanted beast, but his family. That was why despite the familiar feeling he felt from the dragon egg
