Chapter 2564
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 queen's father and two older brothers had lost their lives one way or another at the hands of people from the Nine Continents. Most importantly, Jack had always taken pride in himself for being assigned as the mayor of Rock City. He knew that Natalie trusted him and wouldn't criticize him over a brat from the Nine Continents.
Natalie sighed a breath of relief after hearing what Jack had to say. Instead of responding right away, she scanned the crowd and her eyes eventually fell on Darryl. Immediately, Natalie jerked forward in shock at what she saw. She couldn't recognize Darryl at first glance but there was something about the man and his unique aura that felt familiar. In the midst of consternation, the first person that came to her mind was Darryl Darby! There was no man on earth other than Darryl Darby that possessed such an impressive aura. However...he had gone missing in the Wild
Deserted Secret Region since the war three years ago.
Instantly, the people that were previously enticed by Natalie's beauty were puzzled by her expression. What was happening? What was going on with the queen? Just as the crowd was clueless in confusion, Natalie slowly walked towards Darryl and asked sincerely, ''Pardon me, sir. Who are you?'' Her eyes shone with excitement and anticipation, her expression was respectful as she spoke.
Huh? The entire hall instantly erupted into heated discussion at the baffling scene. ''What?''
''Did Queen Natalie just address that boy from the Nine Continents?'' ''What is going on? I can't believe what I just heard.''
While everyone else was perplexed, Jack was absolutely confused. Natalie had always been the supreme queen in his heart and someone as majestic as she was shouldn't even bother looking at Darryl. After all, that kid was supposed to be a mere bodyguard with no status or position. What he least expected was for Natalie to actually initiate a conversation with the man in such a gentle and respectful tone. Was this really their prideful queen that was standing before them? The sight before him was simply far too unthinkable for him to process. Jack took a deep breath as he tried to steady himself, thoughts were tangled up in his mind and it felt as though he was completely at loss.
