Nobilis of War novel Chapter 52

While they were on their way to the Acqua City, the three people showed great respect to Darren. Being treated with utmost politeness, Darren felt a little strange. But he knew it was just one of the natural laws: respect is awarded to the best of the best.

They moved forward as quickly as time flew. Fourteen hours later, they finally caught a glimpse of the dim outline of the Acqua City.

"Captain Toby, I have something that I must deal with in the Acqua City. Do you mind if I take my leave now and just meet you in the Chu Clan tomorrow?"

Darren asked after the moment they arrived at the gate of the Acqua City.

"We are at your disposal," Toby answered politely, "but..." He wanted to say something, but decided to hold it back as he felt some kind of embarrassment.

Seeing that Toby hesitated in speaking, Darren flashed him a tiny smile and said, "You don't have to worry, just tell me what you want to say."

He recalled that when he was a child, he had seen the mighty captain along with the crowd and that he envied his majestic authority. But now the captain had humbled himself in front of him. Mixed emotions stirred up in Darren's heart.

Hearing Darren's words, Toby couldn't help but feel a bit awkward but he replied with honesty, "Would you mind if I introduce you as the guest of the Governor's Office in the election campaign? It would definitely bring the Governor's Office great honor to have you as our guest."

Darren wasn't surprised that Toby would put forward a serious matter, but it turned out to be nothing more than a simple request. He agreed without hesitation.

"Thank you so much. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow, Sir," Dale gave him his thanks and bade him goodbye

before he looked at Alison who was rooted to her spot, staring at Darren with a look of admiration. "My sister, do you want to go with him?" Dale made fun of her.

Hearing this, Alison felt angry and embarrassed at the same time. She said sulkily as her face turned red and almost resembled a tomato, "Are you really my brother? I have no time for any of your impudence."

"Oh, dear. Why did you react so hostile towards me? Are you blaming me for accurately reading your face and speaking your mind for you?" Dale joked. A playful smile dashed across his lips.

"Okay, I think you've said enough. Stop it with your pranks and jokes. You're embarrassing yourselves in front of others," Toby interfered with his gentle voice.

Seeing this, Darren couldn't help but smile. He then gestured to leave. .
