Chapter 4018
Walking out of the crowd, the Solar General bowed down to the Emperor and said, “This matter concerns all of
our livelihoods, it would be unwise to send a weak scout and die in vain,”
“I have a recommendation, a person who is suited to the nature of this job,” continued the general.
“Who?” asked the Emperor.
“He is no other than Prince Consort, Daryl!” said the general.
The Emperor was clearly surprised by the general’s recommendation.
Daryl could not believe that he was suddenly pulled into something like this.
“Your Highness! We all know that the strongest person in the Godly Region would be your
highness. However, there’s no need for your highness to take such a great risk and

strongest person, he is however currently indisposed and with the gates destroyed, there’s
no way we could count on him. The only logical choice left is Daryl. Furthermore, Daryl is
also the prince consort, seeing as Antigonus kidnapped the princess, it is only logical that
Daryl has to be part of the rescue party and make sure that the princess is safely returned
to your highness’ hands,” explained the general.
His suggestion was met with looks of approval from the guests and subjects alike.
Daryl could not believe how many excuses the general had to make up just to make sure
that he himself does not have to go face Antigonus.
Daryl carefully studied the expression of the Emperor as he anxiously waits for his
decision.
After a moment of deliberation, the Emperor finally nodded and said, “Solar general’s
words make sense. The most suitable person for the job would be Daryl.”
With that, the Emperor turned towards Daryl and said, “Daryl, I bestow upon you the
position of Fiend-Killing General and five million troops. You are to scout out the mountains
and if Antigonus is trying to revive the fiends, you have to stop him. I don’t care what you
do as long as he is stopped. Do you understand?”
Everybody immediately switched their focus on Daryl, waiting for his response.
Daryl could only reluctantly walk forwards and accept his job.
Under the gaze of everybody, Daryl could not decline the Emperor. After all, the result of
declining would be death.
“Very good! Next, we have to pick an acting general for Daryl, who has any

The crowd immediately fell silent again. Everybody knew the risk of going to the Fiend Sealing Mountain with
Daryl was a death sentence.
Daryl had to stifle a laugh when he saw the cowardice on these so- called gods. They are even worse than the
people in the Sects down on the Nine Mainlands.
“I am willing,” said a voice amidst the crowd. As he walked out, clad in golden armor, it was no other than Grunt.
Grunt ended his relationship with the princess and handed her over to Master Mageara, after that, he returned to
the Godly Region.
The reason Grunt stood out was to finally take revenge on the person who stood in between him and the
princess.
He had been in love with the princess for so long, just as he thought that he would have his shot, the sudden
arrival of Daryl caused him to lose the love of his life.
The thing that Grunt could never accept is how Daryl took the princess’s first time away.
