Chapter 3171
“You lost! ” Darryl said, smiling at Holden as he stood there with his hands behind his
back.
Holden gritted his teeth and glared at Darryl. He was unhappy about the loss, but he
had no way to deny it.
At this moment, Ivy walked over and yelled at Holden, “This man doesn’t even have a
weapon and you can’t beat him? What happened to you just now? Why didn’t you
move? You just stood there and let him kick you.”
She thought Holden would win; she was not expecting such an embarrassing loss.
“Miss Ivy, I...I don’t know what happened. I just couldn’t move,” Holden said, wanting
to cry, but he had no tears.
He was the most famous knight in the whole of San Morio City. It was shameful for him
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto lose to an unknown man. Holden was depressed and did not want to change his
perception of Darryl despite the defeat. He kept thinking his defeat was purely a
coincidence.
Then, Dominic came over and let out a loud laugh as he said to Ivy, “Ivy, did you see that? Mister Darryl defeated
Holden, so he’s qualified to be your teacher, right?”
Dominic could hardly hide his excitement when he said that. Although Darryl might not have won the competition in
a grand way, even confusing some people, he still won in the end.
“Father, you saw it yourself; Holden was not able to move. Obviously, he wasn’t in good condition to fight today, so
this competition shouldn’t count!” Ivy said, biting her lips.
Like Holden, Ivy thought it was an accident that Holden was not able to move during the fight. Otherwise, Darryl
would not be able to defeat him at all.
Dominic's face changed; he was going to scold her.
“This is interesting. It turns out Miss Ivy would go against her word. You’re the one who proposed the game. But,
now that you’ve lost, you deny it. Mister Mayor, are these the rules here in San Morio City?
Whatever you promise can be ignored?” Darryl said to Ivy, looking relaxed.
Everyone’s gaze turned to Ivy. She was the one who said if Holden lost, she would accept Darryl as her teacher. ‘Is
she really going to go back against her bet? Ì
Ivy bit her lips as Darryl smiled at her till it was almost bleeding.
“Ivy, apologize to Mister Darryl immediately!” Dominic scolded Ivy, feeling ashamed.
He was the Mayor of San Morio City and his daughter was about to go against her word. What would happen to his
reputation if this spread out?
Ivy trembled as she got scolded. Then, she walked over slowly and whispered to Darryl softly as she blushed,
“Mister Darryl, I’m sorry. Please, give me more guidance in the future.”
In the Roland Continent, nobody bowed or kneeled when an apprentice recognized
their teachers. There was no tradition of serving tea as well. However, Ivy agreeing to
recognize Darryl as her teacher and apologizing to him in public was the most she
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcould do.
At that time, Ivy felt so frustrated, she wanted to just turn around and leave, but her
credibility would be ruined. Her father’s reputation would be tarnished too. Holden had
lost the fight and many people were around to see it.
Darryl laughed coldly as he stood there. ‘The Roland Continent really has no manners.
She has become my apprentice, but she doesn’t even show any basic etiquette.’
Realizing something was not right when he looked at Darryl, Dominic asked, “Mister
Darryl, do you have something to say?”
Sigh!
Darryl took a deep breath and said casually: "where I’m from, in order to be the
apprentice, the apprentice must kneel to the teacher; otherwise it doesn't count!"
Darryl had just arrived and did not want to embarrass the Mayor’s daughter. However,
when he thought about how she treated him as a slave and humiliated him in every
possible way, he wanted to teach her a lesson.
