An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1327
Dustin quickly noticed a few hostile gazes upon leaving Regal Court. With a swift glance, he identified
at least two groups of people that had their eyes on him.
It seemed like Lana was right. Enchanting Elegance was a valuable treasure, and it attracted a lot of
unwarranted trouble.
Ordinary folks were not necessarily able to hold on to such a treasure even if they happened to get
their hands on it.
Luckily, Dustin was far from ordinary.
“Since you have targeted me, let’s see if you have what it takes to take it from me.” Dustin snorted.
Without a sound, he moved toward a secluded area. The two groups followed him discreetly from the
left and right side.
After about ten minutes of walking, Dustin turned into a deserted old alley.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“This is a great chance! Follow him!” More than a dozen black-clad men armed with knives rushed after
Dustin into the old alley.
But soon, they were in shock. And that was because they realized they were in a dead-end, and Dustin
was nowhere to be found.
“What’s going on? Where did that guy go?”
“This is strange. I definitely saw him go in. Where did he go?”
“Damn! He’s not a ghost, is he?”
The black-clad men exchanged looks of confusion and disbelief. How could a person simply disappear
without a trace like that?
“Looking for me?” They suddenly heard a cold, impassive voice behind them. The group was shocked
to see Dustin standing at the alley’s entrance.
“You… Weren’t you in front of us? How did you end up behind us?” one of the black-clad men
exclaimed in surprise.
It was already dark out, and the moon shone brightly. Dustin kept his head slightly lowered. With half of
his face shrouded in darkness, he exuded an icy aura. It intensified the already eerie atmosphere,
making it more chilling and terrifying.
“You’ve been following me for so long. What do you want?” Dustin asked coldly. “So, you’ve already
noticed us for a while now. You’ve got some skills.”
The leader of the group stepped forward and yelled, “Brat! Save the bullshit! We work for anyone who
pays us. If you don’t want to die, hand over what you’re holding right now!”
“The item is right here. Come and take it if you can.” Dustin calmly placed the box with Enchanting
Elegance inside on the ground. Then, he gestured forward with his finger.
“Hmph! You asked for this! Get him!” the leader shouted and charged forward with his group. Dustin
sneered. With a light tap of his foot, he transformed into a ghostly shadow and charged right into the
group of people.
With a series of agonized screams, the black-clad men were sent soaring into the air before landing
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmheavily on the ground. It wasn’t long before they were writhing in pain and howling in agony.
“Tell me, who sent you?” Dustin gripped the leader by the throat and lifted him off the ground.
“I… I don’t know… I’m just following orders after getting paid.” The leader’s face contorted with fear as
his body trembled.
He had thought it was just a simple job. He never expected their target to be this strong. In the blink of
an eye, Dustin had defeated every one of them. It was truly terrifying!
“You don’t know, or are you just unwilling to talk?” Dustin tightened his grip. The leader felt his breath
constricting. With his face turning red and the veins in his neck bulging, he started to struggle
desperately.
“I … really don’t know. There are rules in our line of work. We never ask about our client’s identity,” the
leader said with great difficulty.
“What utter trash!” Dustin lost interest. With a flick of his hand, he smashed the leader against the wall,
rendering him unconscious.
These people only had basic combat skills. They couldn’t even be considered martial artists.
