Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 4622

As he spoke, Darryl exaggerated his movements greatly, acting as if he was a total sham.

Indeed, he wanted Empress Heidi to doubt his skills and let her guard against him down. If he were to keep his head down and appear humble and calm, Empress Heidi would be sure to watch him like a hawk.

Even the two servants standing to the side could not help their laughter.

That guy sure was great at talking big.

He seemed insane—not like someone competent at all.

Even Empress Heidi could not hide her disdain. She wondered what Lute Belle was thinking, getting a master like that for Aurin.

If anything, that man only excelled in bragging.

Empress Heidi was also relieved about that. She was sure that Aurin would not learn anything from a master like that, and she would have nothing to worry about regarding his duel against her son in a hundred days.

Then, Empress Heidi addressed Darryl coldly, "That's enough, save it. Since you seem to be so capable and great, make sure you make a hero out of Aurin in the days to come."

"Of course!" Darryl chirped, smiling.

Darryl's gaze landed on something next to Empress Heidi, and he stopped short.

An exquisite box lay next to her, covered in intricate carvings. He could see a blood-red crystal ball in the box through the gaps of the carvings.

'F*ck me, isn't that the crystal ball holding the Ancient Ancestor's fairy soul?'

The sight of the blood-red crystal ball made Darryl's chest thud. He was confused, his head brimmed with questions.

The Ancient Ancestor was Empress Nuwa and the Nine Heaven Emperor's master and was thus someone of supreme power and authority in the Godly Region. However, Empress Heidi had not released his fairy soul from the crystal ball, and she had also chucked it to the side as if it was hardly anything of importance.

What was she doing?

All at once, a million ideas came to Darryl.

"Alright!

Just as Darryl was pondering to himself, Empress Heidi raised a hand to dismiss him. "That's all. You may leave."
