“Where is Donoghue now?” Eira asked, worried.
Everyone looked at each other; then, a patrolling soldier said, “I saw Master Vikara had gone to Sect Master Darby’s tent just now.”
Everyone was shocked when they heard that. Then, they ran quickly together towards Darryl’s tent.
Donoghue pretended to be Rama’s disciple and came to the base camp; he must be up to something.
Meanwhile, Donoghue had just stepped into Darryl’s tent and was stunned to see Yvette was there too.
“Young Master Vikara, is there something you need?” Darryl asked.
Donoghue regained his thoughts and smiled as he said, “Nothing much; I’m just here to see if you’re done with your preparation. Also, when shall we embark on our journey?”
When he said that, Donoghue kept his attention on Yvette.
Meanwhile, Yvette was observing Donoghue as well. Although Darryl was not concerned, she was confident in her own instincts and was sure there was something wrong with Vikara.
Darryl laughed lightly and said to Donoghue, “I’m giving out some orders that I can leave anytime.”
When he heard that, Donoghue nodded, but he did not leave immediately.
‘Yvette was the previous Princess of the New World; she is intelligent and resourceful. And now she’s looking at me suspiciously. Did she already figure out my identity?’ he wondered before an idea came to him.
“Sect Master Darby, you are bearing such a huge responsibility. Naturally, there are many orders you need to set aside. I shall wait for you at the camp’s entrance,” he said.
Donoghue pretended to think of something and continued to say, “Sect Master Darby, can I take a look at your dragon ball? Since Emperor Xuan Yuan left it behind, it must be extraordinary.”
