Chapter 4635
What?
The crowd fell silent and grew abuzz with chatter.
’What's he saying?" "Even the late Emperor would not know what to do when faced with a situation like that, and he's claiming that someone else has a plan?" ’Trying to show off again!"
Darryl paid no mind to the growing chatter and looked at Wiz Immortal and Empress Heidi. "I'm not joking. There's only one person here capable of taming Shakun today.
"And that person is Prince Aurin."
The crowd fell silent. Everyone's gazes focused on Prince Aurin all at once.
Finally, Wiz Immortal was the first to snap back to his senses. He could not help but mock Darryl. "You're joking, right? Shakun has lost all control that even Prince Auten could not handle it, and he's far stronger than Prince Aurin. How is that possible?" i
Many officials nodded in agreement.
At the same time, Empress Heidi could not control her anger and shock. She glared coldly at Darryl. That Barely Immortal was annoying-he had dared to say that only Prince Aurin could solve the situation at hand. Did that not imply that he was better than her son Auten?
"Master!"
As the tension thickened, Prince Aurin grew slightly anxious as well. He tugged Darryl's shoulder and said in a low voice, "Don't say things like that! Auten bragged just now, and look where it landed him. How would I have the skills to tame Shakun?"
He knew what he could do and the extent of his capabilities.
"Hey!"
Darryl was a master, so he would not need to do everything himself. So, he sent Prince Aurin to do it. That way, Aurin would be able to tame Shakun and gain the respect and confidence of the officials. That would contribute significantly to the duel happening in a hundred days.
The crowd continued to mock and jeer.
Empress Heidi raised a hand to silence everyone. She looked at Prince Aurin. "Can you tame Shakun?"
Prince Aurin did not answer immediately. He exchanged a glance with Darryl, and after Darryl sent him an encouraging nod, he said, "Of course." "Very well!"
Empress Heidi bit her lip; her exquisite features were laced with mockery and disdain. "If you can tame Shakun, I'll let you go for what happened today. If you can't, you'll have to take the blame for your master's boastfulness and poor conduct. I'll sentence you to a month in the Sky Prison to reflect on your actions!" 1
Empress Heidi's chest burned with indignance. Her son had failed, and Aurin had claimed that he could do it! What delusional arrogance! She would show him and let him know who was truly fit to be the next emperor.
Wiz Immortal piped up as well. "Shakun's rage is no small feat. If you insist that you can handle it but don't follow through, you'll be lying to the Empress. And if you take up too much time and Shakun ends up escaping the Beast Enclosure, you'll be committing a crime."
