Chapter 3385
“You’re a knight now and we both work for the Duke. We’re on the same boat. So, I would like to apologize to you
today. I’ve prepared a banquet so I hope you won’t refuse my invitation.” Jameson feigned an eager and sincere
look, but there was a hint of deviousness in his eyes.
Darryl blinked in disbelief. ‘F*ck! Jameson has never been on good terms with me. Something fishy must be going
on if he’s suddenly reaching out and is being nice to me.’
However, it would not be nice if Darryl turned Jameson down outright, so he thought he would figure out what
Jameson was up to first.
“That’s such a nice gesture, Mayor,” he muttered and nodded.
Jameson was beaming when he noticed that Darryl had not turned down his invitation.
"I set up the banquet at the back. Please come with me!" he said in a hurry.

Jameson led the way, with Darryl following behind him. Once they arrived in the back
room, Darryl was stunned. The room was empty. There was no banquet being set up, not
even a table.

Suddenly, Jameson sneered and pressed a mechanism by the door. Then, a huge black
cage plummeted from the ceiling, landing on top of Darryl and trapping him under it. 1
Chuck! Chuck!
Immediately afterward, cylinders emerged from the four walls of the room, and dozens of
palm-sized feather arrows were shot out from the cylinders.
Everything was happening way too fast and the iron cage was too small. Darryl had
nowhere to dodge the attacks. Soon, he was hit by about six or seven feather arrows.
Darryl endured the pain as his anger rose.
"I knew you must have been planning something bad to have done this out of the blue.
I’m a knight now. Have you ever thought of the consequences of doing this to me?” he
bellowed, locking eyes with Jameson.
Darryl had finally realized Jameson had staged this not to apologize to him but to corner
him and attack him. 1
Jameson did not panic even when he felt Darryl’s wrath. Instead, he just laughed. "Even if
the Duke finds out, he won't blame me. To tell you the truth, the five Principalities have
sent their envoys to negotiate terms. As long as we hand you over to them, we’ll be fine.
Otherwise, they will send troops to attack the Day Rise Principality!
"For the sake of the Day Rise Principality’s safety, this was the only way to capture you to hand you over to the

‘What? So, the five Principalities used me as a condition to threaten the Day Rise Principality?’ Darryl frowned,
his heart shaking. 1
Soon, he snapped back to his senses. He was not bothered to be involved in this nonsense. He activated his
internal energy to break through the iron cage but was surprised to find the cage was made of very tough
material. He felt his entire body begin to weaken as well. 3
‘F*ck, is there poison on the feather arrows? Aren’t I supposed to be immune to all kinds of poisons?’ Darryl was
shocked and upset. 1
“Darren, this cage is made of star quartz. Even a saint god wouldn’t be able to break it. Besides, the feather
arrows were dipped in a special anesthetic; one does of it can knockout fifty unicorns. You got shot with about six
or seven of them, so don’t waste your energy! ” Jameson sneered, feeling pleased with himself. 1
‘So, it turned out to be an anesthetic. No wonder I wasn’t able to muster any strength,’ Darryl thought.
His eyes turned blood-red with rage as he shouted, “Jameson, you despicable, shameless b*stard! You’d better
let me go right now or you’ll regret doing this to me! ”
