An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1212
“Let’s go, Drunken Maniac. Let’s get a drink together.”
After putting the Celestial Pearl away safely, Dustin ignored the rest of them and walked down the
stage with the Celestial Blade in hand. The crowd made way for him wherever he went.
Dustin’s incredible performance today had gained everyone’s respect. Many of them could not
understand why he refused to be the leader of the alliance. But, for now, it seemed like a good thing.
That was especially so with all the guildmasters dying and ready to fight for the position. An upheaval
was bound to happen in the martial world. And it will happen soon.
“Oh, right…”
Dustin stopped in his tracks at the thought of something. He turned to look straight at Quincey. “I
almost forgot. I’ve got this pain to deal with.”
“You … What do you want?” Quincey’s expression changed immediately as panic flashed in his eyes.
“From the moment I set foot here, you’ve been dying to kill me. I’m afraid I won’t be able to get any
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsleep knowing that such a threat is roaming free.” Dustin looked at him coldly.
They were now sworn enemies. Letting Quincey walk away with his life today would inevitably spell
trouble for him in the future.
“You … You … You better not act rashly. I’m an elder of the alliance!” Quincey was obviously flustered.
He took several steps back.
He had kept silent the whole time, trying to lay low and make it out with his life. Unfortunately, Dustin
had not forgotten about him.
“I’ve just killed the leader of the alliance. What more a mere elder?”
Dustin smirked before sending a needle flying with a flick of his finger. Quick as a flash, it buried itself
between Quincey’s brows.
“You-”
Quincey opened his mouth to say something. But suddenly, his body shook briefly, and he stiffened.
Then, a drop of blood oozed out from between his brows.
The very next second, all life seemed to be sucked out of Quincey as he collapsed to the ground
lifelessly. His eyes were opened wide, and absolute fear and hatred were etched on his face. A few of
Quincey’s underlings were scared out of their wits at what they just witnessed. They dropped to their
knees and began begging for their lives.
Dustin simply ignored them and turned to look at Theodore. He had a serious killing intent in his eyes.
Theodore and the rest of them instantly got anxious. It was as though they were facing a fearsome
enemy.
If Dustin was out to get revenge against them, they would have no choice but to give their all and fight
to the death.
“Relax, I’m not going to kill you guys. But that’s only because someone out there has already called
dibs. So before your worst nightmare comes knocking, you better take good care of yourselves. With
that ambiguous warning, Dustin turned and left without claiming their lives.
It was not that he was being merciful to spare them. But Abigail will have to be the one to take their
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlives. She would be the one to avenge her father and make them pay dearly for what they did to him.
The day that Abigail returned would be the day these hypocrites paid with their lives. Dustin left them
with nothing but his cold, retreating figure. However, the commotion that he stirred up lasted for a long
time.
“It’s such a pity that Mr. Rhys didn’t take up the position. He missed out on a great opportunity to make
a name for himself internationally,” Lyn exclaimed.
She admired Dustin for his abilities and his moralities. He drew a clear line between friends and
enemies and was unmoved by fame and fortune. It was truly rare to find someone of his integrity.
However, he was very much a lone wolf due to his lack of wants.
“No, you’re wrong. Dustin did not miss out on an opportunity. He simply could not be bothered by it.”
Josie said, standing to the side. Her burning gaze was full of admiration.
“It might be an honor beyond reach for others, but for Dustin, it’s just something within easy reach. And
such is the difference between regular people and a person marked out for success!
“Besides, after today, his reputation as a young grandmaster will certainly be made known worldwide!
So there is no need for him to prove anything or to drum up support.
“He does not need any title that comes with becoming the leader of the alliance. For Dustin is already
an uncrowned king!”
