Ivy frowned; she could not help but murmur softly, "Mister Darryl is someone with great abilities. You ought to be respectful toward him in the future, alright?"
Err…
Holden was surprised to hear Ivy say that; he could not believe his ears. He did not give up his questions. "Miss Ivy, he—"
Ivy interrupted Holden before he could finish talking.
"You should go now." Ivy was too lazy to engage in nonsensical talk, so she said, "I will be here waiting for Mister Darryl. By the way, you're not allowed to come here and disturb him in the future without permission!"
Holden did not like it, but he dared not refute Ivy's statement. He replied servilely, "I understand!" After that, he went off.
Holden was very annoyed.
'F*ck! What kind of magic potion did Darryl give to Young Miss? Why is she so protective of him now? I must teach him a lesson if there is a chance in the future.'
Meanwhile…
When Darryl arrived at Dominic's study, he saw the man sitting down with a sullen look.
"Mister Darryl!"
Dominic quickly stood up when Darryl walked into the room and said embarrassingly, "We don't know anything about the two women that you are looking for."
Darryl breathed a deep sigh after hearing the bad news; his mood sank.
Then, Dominic said, "Mister Darryl, what traits do the two women have besides their unique looks?"
Darryl smiled bitterly.
Yuri and Bonnie were faeries from the Illusion Virtual World. They were not humans. Darryl was hesitant to reveal the secret to Dominic.
Suddenly, Dominic thought of something and said, "Mr. Darryl, it is All Souls' Day in a few days. At that time, on behalf of San Morio City, I will go to Alandis to meet the Prince. You can come with me. Alandis is the greatest city in the Roland Continent. Perhaps you can find some clues about your two friends there."
'All Souls' Day?'
Then, Darryl continued. "When the time comes, I will be by your side as your follower!"
Dominic was shrewd. He knew that Darryl would want to hide his identity, so he nodded in agreement.
Early the next day, Darryl hit the road with Dominic.
It was the meaningful All Souls' Day, so Ivy also went along with them. Holden, who was Dominic's personal guard, joined them on the trip as well.
As the Mayor of San Morio City, Dominic's ride was rather unusual. It was a luxurious and exquisite carrier pulled by four unicorns.
During the journey, Darryl, Dominic, and Ivy were chatting and laughing in the carrier. They also enjoyed the beautiful scenery along the way; it was enjoyable.
After one day and one night of journey, they were getting closer and closer to Alandis. They could see a huge and spectacular statue of God that stood upright outside the city from a distance.
Darryl knew that the Roland Continent had glorious myths and legends. The people believed in various gods. Therefore, it was normal for such a huge statue of God to appear outside the Heavenly Star Principality's capital.
