Ch apter 2566
''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.''
The Raksasa soldiers surrounded Darryl once again as soon as the words were spoken. Darryl chuckled at the scene and remained composed.
''Stop!'' Natalie roared. Her expression turned ice-cold as a wave of powerful aura exploded from within her. Sensing their queen's fury, all of the Raksasa felt their stomach sink in response and immediately returned to their previous positions, not daring to even breathe too loud in fear of provoking her further.
''You Majesty...''Jack looked at Natalie in confusion and before he could react, Natalie strode over towards him. Without any warning, her hand connected with Jack's face in full force. Following the loud ''Slap!''. Jack was sent spinning before landing on the ground with his rear, blood came pouring out from the corner of his mouth as two of his teeth were gone. The crowd exclaimed in shock at the sight.
''Her Majesty ... hit our mayor.."
''What the...''
''What is going on!''
Covering his face with his hand in panic, Jack felt aggrieved and said, ''Why, Your Majesty? I did nothing wrong...'' How embarrassing it was to be slapped across the face by the queen in front of all these people!
The Raksasa soldiers around them stood, not daring to move even the slightest. Natalie paid no mind to the reaction of the people around them and strode towards Jack with a cold expression. She looked down at him with superiority and said, ''Jack, how dare you mistreat my honored guest. Consider it mercy that I'm not sentencing you to death right here and now.'' What? Honored guest? Once again, everyone in the hall was dumbfounded at her words.
