However, Darryl once again dodged her attack and hit the stone wall beside him.The entire underground space rumbled when Loona's palm struck the stone wall. Then, a deep pit appeared right where Darryl and Loona were standing.'Damn it! The bottom is empty!'Darryl was shocked. He could not react at all and fell into the pit with Loona....On the other side, in the Raksasa Tribe's Royal Palace.It was already late at night. The stars and moon were dim, and the entire palace was shrouded in darkness.A figure appeared from nowhere and quietly landed on the newly repaired hall.He was tall and dark, dressed in a tight black suit.It was Prince Auten.Prince Auten knew Darryl was recuperating in the royal palace when he drank with Tyson during the day. He decided to seize the opportunity to get rid of him.The weather was terrible that night, and dark clouds obscured the moon. After waiting until midnight, Prince Auten made his move.Prince Auten looked around from the top o
"Darryl!"As she approached, she could not help but ask softly, "Is something wrong?" Darryl had always been consistent. Something must have happened for him to arrive late at night without saying anything.Prince Auten took a deep breath. He became more and more anxious when he heard Natalie's footsteps getting closer and closer.'What should I do?' Even though Auten was not afraid of being discovered by the Empress, if his identity were revealed, it would alert the enemy, making dealing with Darryl difficult.Natalie was so anxious that she stood behind him and said, "Darryl, say something."She thought the man in front of her was Darryl.Prince Auten had an idea at that precise moment. He turned around and took Natalie in his arms without hesitation.Prince Auten had made up his mind. 'Since the Empress thinks of me as Darryl, it's better to play along.'Natalie had no time to react as Prince Auten held her in his arms. She wanted to scream, but then she felt the man's breat
The maid sounded anxious. Apparently, she had something important to report.Natalie was overjoyed beyond words when she heard the shout. She wanted to respond at the time, but her voice was sealed, and she could not speak at all. She became increasingly concerned as time passed.Oh, no…Prince Auten was astounded at the same time. He quickly stood up and stared intently at the door.A maid could be seen standing outside the door through the crack.It seemed like he could not stay here for long.Prince Auten reacted immediately and dashed to the window behind him. He quietly opened the window and rushed out.Prince Auten would never be concerned if it were somewhere else. However, that was the Raksasa Tribe's Royal Palace, and Darryl was also present. It would be disastrous if he were discovered.However, Prince Auten was unaware that Darryl was not in the Royal Palace then. He was in the forbidden area of the pasture."Your Majesty."The maid's soft voice came from outside a
Loona looked around at her surroundings and said, "It is entirely your fault. I told you not to come in here, but you did not listen. Now we have found ourselves in this situation."'What an awful place. Look at that underground lava river. How on earth are we going to get back up to the surface? It's all his fault!' Loona thought.Darryl was at a loss for words. 'I don't mind you being ungrateful after I save your life. But do you need to reprimand me for all that? Damn, this girl is so hard to please,' he thought. With an indifferent look, he said, "Fine, say anything you like. I'm going to look for an exit. If you hate me so much, don't follow me."He started to walk to the front."Do you think I want to follow you?" Loona mumbled angrily. Later, she turned around and walked in the opposite direction.Despite that, she realized it was a dead end after taking a few more steps. She had no choice but to turn around and follow Darryl.Darryl was amused. He said, "I thought you wer
Darryl took a deep breath and stared at the wild beast without answering Loona's question. After a few seconds, he said, "I think that is a Flame Pyroar. But that wild beast has been extinct for several thousand years. I never expected to see one here."He could not take his gaze away from the Flame Pyroar as he was astounded to see one with his own eyes.The Pyroar was a fearsome ancient beast. It had cruel and savage characteristics despite not being among the Four Great Fierce Beasts. It was even more difficult to defeat than the Flame Pyroar.Darryl used to read about the Pyroar in an ancient book.'A Flame Pyroar?' Loona's exquisite face looked stupefied. 'What a weird name.'Roar!At that moment, the Flame Pyroar discovered Darryl and Loona. The fierce beast got on its feet and howled loudly. Subsequently, it let out a fireball targeted straight at Darryl and Loona. The air turned into a sea of flame everywhere the fireball flew past.Loona was terrified when she saw that.
Darryl smiled as he assessed the situation and said, "Oh, wow. You have guts. I am leaving now because you would rather die than beg me for help."He turned around and pretended to leave."Don't!" Loona panicked and nearly broke into tears. "Don't go. I'm sorry. I… I was wrong… I should not treat you like that. Please save me."Her voice became increasingly small by the end of her sentence. One had to pay close attention, or one would not be able to understand what she was saying.She was hesitant to submit to Darryl because of her arrogance. Despite that, her situation did not give her any other options. She would be burned alive if she did not beg Darryl for help.Darryl smiled and nodded as Loona waved the white flag. "You have finally realized your error? Good girl."While he was at it, he waved his hand to create a protective barrier around Loona and himself. On the other hand, the protection barrier was so small that it could only fit two people.Loona was finally able to
The Flame Pyroar was stunned.Loona, who stood behind Darryl, panicked. She pulled his sleeve. "Don't…don't challenge it."As the strongest person on the Nine Mainland, Darryl was undoubtedly capable of defeating the Flame Pyroar. However, his power had not yet recovered, so he was utterly incapable of defeating the Flame Pyroar at this time. Loona feared being imposed if he accidentally ticked off the Flame Pyroar.Darryl smiled when he felt Loona panicked. He shook his head to show Loona there was nothing to worry about."How interesting…" Finally, the Flame Pyroar came to its senses. It locked its eyes on Darryl. "Kid, you are fearless. But do you know the last guy who talked to me that way ended up dead after I smashed his head open?"The Flame Pyroar leaned forward slightly; it looked aggressive.Darryl smiled and asked in return, "I know it's easy for you to kill me. But don't you want to know my identity?"The Flame Pyroar continued to gaze at Darryl and secretly checked
After much deliberation, Flame Pyroar revealed the truth. "I am not entirely unrelated to them. The Nine Golden Birds guard the Sunset Bow. Every few years, the Sunset Bow will erupt with a terrifying Blazing Sun Heavenly Flame. It is purer and more powerful than Lava Fire. It will help me to level up my Flame Power."So whenever the Sunset Bow released the Blazing Sun Heavenly Flame, I would take advantage of it... Of course, I did it quietly and did not want those Golden Birds to notice. Otherwise, I would be dead by now..."Lastly, it lowered its head like a child who had made a mistake.Darryl finally realized why that Flame Pyroar's Flame Power was so powerful. Over the last thousand years, it had been absorbing the Blazing Sun Heavenly Flame. He was lucky that his body had the Red Lotus Fayette, or he would have died by then.In the meantime, there was something he did not understand. He looked at the Flame Pyroar and asked, "What did you say just now? Sunset Bow?""Yes!" Th
