"Besides, you came looking for me, and you initiated it. Theoretically speaking, I saved you, but you want to kill me. Are you really going to return kindness with ingratitude?"
'Screw it. Since I've been exposed, nothing else matters anymore.'
Darryl checked out Empress Heidi from top to bottom, and he had to admit that Empress Heidi did have a beautiful body. As he thought about what happened earlier, he also had to admit that he immensely enjoyed it.
"You…"
Darryl's attitude only caused more anger to mount in Empress Heidi's heart that her eyes almost burst into flames.
'Not only did this scumbag defile me, he still dares to make irresponsible and carping comments as if it had nothing to do with him.'
Empress Heidi was extremely distressed as she thought about what she did with Darryl earlier, and she was unwilling to accept it.
The atmosphere in the room was very depressing, and the air was filled with intense hostility.
After a while, Darryl took a deep breath and replied, "Your Ladyship, since it has already happened and you can't accept it, I have nothing else to say if you want to kill me…"
He looked straight into Empress Heidi's eyes with a fearless face when he made that statement.
Without a doubt, Darryl was taking a shot, even after what he did was a mortal sin. However, with Empress Heidi's royal status on the line, it would do her no good if the incident was exposed. Hence, Darryl knew that she would not kill him—not at that moment, at least.
"You…"
Empress Heidi could not find a word to refute. Her mind was so messed up. 'He… He's not afraid of dying…'
In a daze, she noticed that Darryl was still checking out her body. She was ashamed and angry. She said coldly, "Haven't you seen enough? Close your eyes now."
"Alright. I'm closing them now!"
Darryl smiled and quickly closed his eyes. He wanted to crack a joke, but he held back, considering how angry Empress Heidi was.
'Damn it. I would have already left if it weren't for everything that just happened. I must leave before the sunrise, or I will be in trouble if the patrolling soldier discovers me.'
However, things were often so coincidental. When Darryl was close to the teleport gateway, a group of patrol soldiers coincidentally passed by and discovered him. They shouted angrily, "Who is it? How dare you try to use the teleport gateway?"
"Stop!"
Darryl felt like he had a migraine suddenly. 'What the hell? The things you're afraid of the most always return to haunt you.'
He quickly sped up and intended to leave through the teleport gateway before anyone discovered his identity.
The group of patrol soldiers was angered to see him go toward the teleportation gateway even though he was already discovered.
"Stop him!" The leader of the soldiers shouted.
After that, he and the rest of the soldiers started to activate their divine power to condense a mysterious thunder and struck it at Darryl.
