Chapter 3366
Jameson, who was next to Frank, chimed in, "Yes, paint a picture if you think you’re so good!"
The people around them also started to heckle him.
"Yes, what's the use of being good at talking? show your true skills. II
"Yes, paint a picture on the spot!"
“I don't think he dares."
The comments kept coming. Then, the Duke took a deep breath and said to Darryl, “Darren, since everyone has
said so, you should also paint a picture here. Let US take a look at your painting skills."
The Duke was also curious about Darryl’s artistic abilities and wondered if he was merely boasting. He raised his
hand and someone immediately prepared a fresh piece of paper on the easel.
Albert and Reese were a little dumbfounded by what was happening. They felt Darryl had
gotten too carried away. Although they thought Darryl was powerful and a good battle
strategist, they were uncertain about his artistic abilities.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJameson slowly approached Darryl and squeezed out a faint smile. " Darren, since you are
so well-versed in art, you should have quite a good foundation. Show us."
Meanwhile, Frank was staring indignantly at Darryl. ‘This guy doesn't know any better. I
will teach him a lesson later.’
At the same time, many of the mayors around Darryl also fixed their eyes on him; their
eyes were filled with mockery.
‘How dare he compare his paintings to Frank! He doesn’t know any better!’
At that moment, everyone expected Darryl would not dare to paint on the spot. Even if he
agreed to do it, he might not be able to produce anything presentable.
"Alright." Darryl smiled and nodded under everyone’s gaze.
Then, he walked up to the easel and limbered up his wrists. “Since you guys are so
enthusiastic, I’ll paint a picture. I haven’t painted in a long time and I’m not used to this
quill, but I'll do it!”
People from The Nine Continent painted with either an inkbrush or a professional
paintbrush. This was the first time Darryl was using a quill!
Everyone laughed. ‘This guy is so full of himself! He should just admit he doesn’t know
how to paint. It’s ridiculous that he’s blaming the quill!’
Darryl ignored everyone mocking him and picked up the quill indifferently. He began to
mix some colors and started to paint on the paper. He was also working on a landscape
painting.
At first, everyone hurled contemptuous remarks at him, but they slowly shut up once they
saw the complete outline of Darryl’s work. Frank behaved the same as everyone else. He
wore a contemptuous smile at first but grew more solemn when Darryl finished his
painting. He was surprised. 1
They saw the mountain peak Darryl painted was filled with artistic expression even though
it was done with just a few casual brushstrokes. The painting was done with heavy strokes,

For a moment, Jameson was shaken up as he stared blankly at the painting. He was at a
loss for words for a long time. ‘This guy actually knows how to paint. He even has such a
deep understanding of art.’
At the same time, everyone around them was dumbfounded. The landscape piece was perfect in terms of its
artistic conception and the painting technique. In fact, it was loads better than Frank’s painting.
‘How could this be?’
‘I can’t believe this seemingly inconspicuous guy has such great skill in painting,’ everyone wondered.
Darryl merely smiled when he noticed everyone's expression. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief!
‘I haven't painted for years. Thank God, I didn’t make a fool of myself! ’ Darryl thought as he glanced around
before finally setting his eyes on Frank.
“Mayor Frank, this is my landscape art. Do you think it’s different from yours?” he said, smiling.
"I..." Frank was flushed and felt embarrassed by Darryl’s question.
“Your artistic ability is better than mine. I’m impressed,” he said, ashamed.
