Chapter 56 He Was Not Meek (1/2)

Darren's figure gradually became clearer in the crowd.

All eyes were on him. The Chu Clan members were confused. Toby had shouted out to call forth ”the distinguished guest”. Why was he going up there?

”Captain Toby, the distinguished guest you mentioned...” The Chief Elder sounded shocked.

”Yes, it is this young man. As long as we have him with us, these criminals cannot escape today.” Toby waved his hands wildly. His words revealed his loyal confidence in Darren.

”Captain Toby, I think you might be mistaken. Are you really referring to that boy who is going up the stage?” another elder asked doubtfully.

”Ha-ha, I guess it's understandable that you find it unbelievable. After all, he is so young.” Toby smiled lightly, and then he briefly described Darren's actual strength, which made everyone even more shocked.

”He saved you from a high-level diabolic beast? And killed it too!?”

Several elders looked incredulous, their disbelief soon turning into bitter smiles.

Darren had finally stepped onto the stage. Standing in front of the elders, he greeted them slightly and said, ”Nice to see you again, everyone.”

”Darren...” The Chief Elder's voice trembled slightly, a glimmer of guilt flashing in his eyes. But he did not, for the life of him, have any idea about what to say at this moment.

”Darren! You're really Darren!” Alison, who had been standing behind several hosts watching the election, stood out and confirmed the suspicions she'd been having. She ecstatically said, ”I thought you looked very similar. It is really you, Darren!”

Darren nodded to Alison and said, ”Miss Yun has a good memory. You still remember a loser like me.”

Alison was stunned upon hearing Darren's words. Had she offended him in any way before? Made him feel like she looked down on him?

Alison felt horrified at the possibility that she had offended him. She looked like she was about to cry. ”I'm sorry, Sir,” she whispered. ”I shouldn't have been so reckless.”

Darren was speechless for a moment. He softly laughed. He didn't expect her to be so anxious about their past encounters! ”Miss Yun, take it easy. I'm just kidding,” he said reassuringly.

Alison looked at Darren's relaxed expression, quite relieved. She nodded slightly and stepped back.
