"What?!"
"Who's there? How dare you break into the campsite?"
"Catch him!"
Even though Darryl was well disguised and had acted very discreetly, the Raksasa campsite was too heavily guarded. Before he even had time to observe the environment, a group of soldiers on patrol approached the area, and they immediately discovered Darryl.
The soldiers could feel the aura permeated from Darryl's body. It had been deliberately suppressed; the Raksasa soldiers felt it nonetheless!
Darryl felt helpless when he was exposed. At the same time, he was indescribably shocked.
'I have hidden my strength; how did these soldiers feel my presence?'
Darryl did not know that the Raksasa Tribe's cultivation method was vastly different from that of the Nine Mainland. In addition, the Raksasa Tribe lived in a harsh environment—the wilderness. They had to fight wild beasts frequently, and therefore, their senses were very sharp.
Phew!
Darryl took a deep breath and tried to calm himself as he looked at the dozens of Raksasa soldiers that had gathered in front of him.
"Dear warriors, don't get overly alarmed. I'm not here to attack the camp," Darryl said with a smile. Then, he continued to speak slowly with a seemingly harmless look. "I'm here to make peace. I hope you can lead the way and bring me to see your chief or the commander-in-chief?"
'What? He wants to make peace?'
The Raksasa soldiers in front of Darryl quickly, and they were surprised to spot Darryl.
'Didn't he kill the Gigantic Monster easily during the battle in the day? That was the reason Alaric ordered the army to retreat. And he's now here to say that he wants to make peace?'
"You... Are you Darryl?"
"You've killed so many of us during the day, and now you've snuck into our camp and claimed that you're here to make peace, and you even want to meet the Honorable Son? Do you think we will believe that?"
"Yes, this person must be lying!"
