Phew…
Darryl sighed in relief when he saw that there were not many soldiers on patrol outside the tent.
Fortunately, he was witty enough to compete with Natalie in an internal energy duel. Otherwise, their
fight would have attracted more Raksasa soldiers from the entire camp.
Darryl rejoiced in his heart, but he had no time to think. He carried on his search at the tents ahead.
However, the Raksasa Camp was too big, and there were so many tents. Darryl had no clue, and he
became more anxious.
What?
Finally, when he arrived near a specific tent, Darryl found very few soldiers guarding it. He also heard
women’s voices from within the tent.
“Shentel… this is not the way to go.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yes, but the Raksasa King is missing. The Honorable Son has the final say now.
I think this is a good sign that perhaps the Raksasa Tribe can make peace with the Nine Mainland.”
Darryl quivered when he heard those voices—they were from Debra and Shentel. Darryl had a deep affection
for Debra. They had not seen each other for a few months, but he could identify her voice easily.
Darryl did not think much about it; he went into the tent directly. He was delighted when he was inside
the tent.
He saw Debra and Shentel on an animal skin platform as they talked about the battle earlier in the day.
“You—”
Shentel and Debra were shocked when they noticed that someone had broken into their tent. When they saw that
it was Darryl, they were even more shocked.
“Darryl, why are you here?” Shentel asked after a few seconds of shock.
Debra did not speak, but she retreated a few steps backward. After she lost her memories, Debra had a bad
impression of Darryl, so she remained vigilant. When he had entered the battlefield and showed his exceptional
commanding ability, it still did not make Debra change her mind.
“Debra!” Darryl was heartbroken when he felt Debra resisted him. “Quick! You and Miss Xion should come with me
quickly.”
The Raksasa camp was a wolf’s den; how could he let them stay there?
“Darryl.” Debra bit her lips and said, “You broke into the Raksasa camp. Are you here to rescue us?”
Darryl nodded firmly. “Yes.”
Debra’s heart pounded when Darryl said that. However, she shook her head and said, “We don’t need you to
save us; you should go.”
Debra had not recovered her memory, so she was uncomfortable to be around the enthusiastic Darryl.
‘What?’
Darryl was stunned; his brows furrowed. “Why won’t you leave with me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDarryl had thought that Debra would leave with him without hesitation, even if she had not recovered her
memory. After all, the Raksasa camp was a dangerous place. It had never crossed his mind that Debra
would refuse him.
“Darryl!”
Then, Shentel walked forward and said, “We are safe here. The Raksasa Tribe’s Honorable Son has been
very good to us, so you don’t have to worry.”
Shentel felt complicated when she said that to Darryl.
A few years ago, Shentel would have hated Darryl when she saw him. It was because of the grievances
between Darryl and Donoghue that Zhu Bajie had sullied her. Even though it had happened a long time
ago and Shentel had made peace with it after she had experienced so many things in her life, she still
could not remain calm when she faced Darryl.
Oh…
Darryl was taken aback; then, he smiled bitterly. “Even if the Honorable Son is good to you, you shouldn’t
stay here. You are from the Nine Mainland; don’t you want to be with our army?”
Darryl was very puzzled.
‘What happened? What potion did the Raksasa Tribe give to these two? How are they at ease here?’
