Chapter 1026 Linda Qin (1/2)
Everyone sat down after they had entered the hall.
”Darren, you helped us deal with a massive disaster immediately after your return. It's mighty generous of you,” Garth praised.
”Ha-ha, since you knew that he is a troublemaker, why didn't you kill him?”
Darren couldn't understand why the officials had ignored what had happened in the Holy City. After all, Myron had done so many evil deeds.
”There are things that you don't know, Darren. If I had killed that guy and Anderson learned about it, he would bring his army here. At that time, blood would spill like rivers on both sides, and there would be countless casualties. We had no choice but to turn a blind eye to it.
Fortunately, you took care of him. A battle between you and Myron would be considered as a personal affair. If he tries to use the opportunity to blame us and attack the city, the elders will suppress him. This is why Anderson does not dare to kill people in the city at random.”
After hearing this explanation, Darren had a better understanding of the situation.
”But why didn't you drive Myron away?” Darren asked.
”And where would I expel him to? A scumbag like him would be a disaster wherever he went. Expelling him would not curb his activities. He would just be evil in another place.”
”That's true.” Darren nodded in agreement.
”Anyway, you have done an excellent thing for the residents of the Holy City. You don't have to worry about Anderson. If he dares to make trouble for you, I will do my best to protect you!”
Garth assured Darren that he would personally protect him to avoid a war.
The promise had been easy enough to make as Garth knew that Darren had a powerful avatar. He was not concerned about Anderson taking revenge on Darren because of the avatar.
”Thank you, Governor,” Darren replied politely.
”Ha-ha, I should be the one to thank you for your help. If your avatar hadn't injured the fiend, saved our life, and delayed its development, we and the eighteen cities may have already disappeared.” Garth laughed loudly.
”Not at all,” Darren answered perfunctorily and then continued, ”How is the first fiend ancestor now?”
