An Understated Dominance Chapter 767
The red handprint on Dustin's cheek hadn't faded away. Dustin smiled as he replied, "No.""Your cheek might not be hurting, but your heart is hurting, right?" Natasha raised an eyebrow. "Since it's come to this, you should just let her go. Why torture yourself like that? I'll take care of you instead. Wouldn't that be great?""I'm a grown man. I can't just rely on a woman for a living, don't you think?" Dustin scratched his head."So what if you rely on a woman for a living? That takes skill too!" Natasha extended a slender finger and raised Dustin's chin. She smirked and teased, "Besides, with your looks, it'd be a waste not to rely on a woman. You're just my type. Why don't you clean yourself up tonight and warm up my bed?The corners of Dustin's lips twitched. Why did it feel like a pervert was flirting with him?"How about it? Have you made up your mind? Are we going to your place or mine?" Natasha smiled at him seductively. Dustin wanted so badly to taste her rosy lips.
An Understated Dominance Chapter 768
The next morning at Fallonge estate, Scarlet was dressed in a sexy silver one-piece dress. As she looked at herself in the mirror, she felt uncomfortable. Normally, she would be seen in her martial arts outfit, general's outfit, or casual clothes. It was her first time wearing such a tight-fitting dress. "Madam Scarlet, you look beautiful today. Just look at that beautiful face and figure. Who wouldn't fall for you?" Georgia stood beside Scarlet, her eyes filled with awe. She had always been aware of Scarlet's beauty, but seeing her dressed up made her look even more stunning! Coupled with Scarlet's heroic spirit, she looked beautiful and brave, appealing to both men and women alike. "Are you sure this looks good on me? It doesn't seem quite right." Scarlet pursed her lips. Georgia nodded solemnly. "Of course, it looks good! A tight-fitting, one-piece dress is supposed to look elegant. They show off your figure. It's a style beautiful women like. Just look at your slim waist,

"What, do I not look good?" Scarlet looked down at her outfit, looking slightly distressed. "Not really, it just seems awkward. I prefer the way you usually dress," Dustin replied bluntly.Scarlet was a fearless female general, and her heroic spirit was her most attractive aspect. She looked beautiful and brave in her general outfit, exuding irresistible charm. She looked just as gorgeous in a dress. However, it didn't suit her. "Huh?" Scarlet's questioning gaze landed on Georgia upon hearing him. "I'm going to get some drinks!" Georgia was scared. She escaped as soon as she could."Logan, can you wait a while? I'm going to change." Scarlet rushed back to her room without another thought. Soon after, she came out dressed in a red martial arts outfit. Dustin's eyes lit up immediately. "Not bad, this outfit looks so much better." He nodded in satisfaction.Scarlet smiled sweetly, feeling warm inside. As expected, Dustin liked her true self better."Kid, I heard the situa

Dustin, Scarlet, and her two deputy generals left Fallonge estate. They walked around the popular tourist spots in Millsburg, taking photos. They also bought souvenirs. Afterward, they went to Food Street downtown. They tried all the local food. They ended their day watching a movie called "Wandering Planet" at the theater. When they came out, it was dark. "Dustin, where are we going next?" Scarlet was still full of energy. This was the happiest and most relaxed she had been in ten years. "Madam Scarlet, we've been out all day. Why don't we return home now?" Bridget suggested. She and Georgia had been on high alert since morning. They were protecting Scarlet from any potential ambush. As Dragonmarsh's Goddess of War, Scarlet was highly respected. However, she was also a thorn in the eyes of many other countries. Every year, she faced countless assassination attempts. It was especially dangerous in crowded places like this. They had to guard Scarlet against all kinds of
An Understated Dominance Chapter 771
She was simply irresistible to some perverts.Bridget yelled, "You're not worthy of being friends with Madam Scarlet. Get lost!""Hey, are you looking down on me?" Bridget had made the man upset. "Do you know who I am? Do you know who my father is? I'm Daniel Grint, son of Zen Order's guildmaster!" The expressions of the people in the restaurant changed after he said that. "The Zen Order? Isn't that one of the eight major sects in Glenstead?" "I heard they have thousands of disciples, and they have a huge influence. As a leader in the martial arts world, not many dare provoke them.""That's weird. What's the Zen Order doing in Balerno?""They must be here for the Knighthood Society tournament. It's held in Balerno this time, at Shinefield Lake. That's not far from Millsburg. Many martial artists are visiting for the same reason." As they spoke, they inexplicably distanced themselves. They were afraid of being caught up in the commotion. "I've never heard of any Zen Or
An Understated Dominance Chapter 772
"Ah!" Daniel let out another terrifying scream. Both of his legs were now broken. His expression twisted in agony. He just wanted a woman to sleep with. He didn't expect to meet a bunch of lunatics instead. They showed zero respect for the Zen Order, daring to harm others without hesitation or warning. "Shit! Who are these people? How dare they harm disciples from the Zen Order?""She's pretty, but her methods are absolutely ruthless." The onlookers were stunned as they watched Daniel squirmed in pain."That's enough. You're disturbing our meal. Just drag him out." Scarlet waved dismissively.Even as Scarlet gestured for Georgia and Bridget to drag Daniel out, she never looked up throughout the entire situation. Insignificant gangsters like them were not worth her time."Madam Scarlet is in a good mood today, so I'll let you go. Reflect on your actions when you get back," Georgia said. She then kicked Daniel stomach, sending him flying. He landed heavily by the doo

Georgia and Bridget were furious. They were about to launch another attack when Scarlet raised a hand to stop them."You're no match for him. Let me handle it." Scarlet stood up slowly. She swept a cold gaze across the room. A chill was sent down the laughing crowd's spine, and they turned silent. For some reason, they felt like death was staring them in the eye. "Oh, I didn't expect to see such a gorgeous woman here. I'm in luck." Joel's eyes lit up in delight upon seeing Scarlet. His lips curled up into a sly smile. "It seems like you people look down on women." Scarlet said impassively, "I'll give you a chance. If you can defend against three moves of mine, I'll let you go alive.""You'll let us go alive?" The group was momentarily stunned. Then, they howled in laughter. "Hey, girl, I think you haven't realized the situation yet. You're at our mercy, not the other way around!""You're pretty but pretty dumb.""Hey, beautiful. If I manage to defend against three of yo

"Let him go, or die!" Seeing Dustin held hostage made Scarlet see red. The temperature seemed to drop a few degrees. Even the lights started flickering. The Zen Order disciples who were on the ground shivered in fear.Scarlet had only intended to teach them a lesson, but she was now filled with murderous intent. Dustin was her boundary, and anyone who dared to cross that line would face her wrath, no matter where they might try to hide in the world. "I'm warning you! Don't make any sudden movements, or I'll kill him!" Joel threatened. He never expected Scarlet to be so strong. He knew he wasn't a match for her. His only chance was to use the hostage in front of him to turn the situation around."If you release him now, I won't kill you. But if you lay a finger on him, I'll destroy your entire guild!" Scarlet threatened coldly."Cut the crap! We're in control now!" Joel glared at her. "I order you to step back!"Scarlet took a deep breath, trying to suppress her anger, b

"Oh? Are we going all out now?" Dustin smirked, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.Mulder, who had advanced to become a grandmaster martial artist through drugs, had a weak foundation. Even after taking the enhanced serum, he still posed no threat to Dustin. If Mulder were a hundred times stronger, he might just barely be able to fight Dustin.As the serum's effects pushed his body to the limit, Mulder suddenly let out a furious roar. His muscles swelled rapidly, and his bones cracked as they expanded. His body grew larger at an alarming rate, and his clothes tore apart under the strain.His six-foot frame stretched to nearly seven feet in mere moments as his body swelled to monstrous proportions. His face twisted fiercely, and his skin darkened as black scales surfaced.With another guttural growl, his roar turned beastlike. He grabbed his shredded shirt and ripped it away, exposing his broad chest covered in dark scales. A faint, eerie sheen flickered across their surface."D

Dustin's words made Mulder frown.Mulder knew all too well that Warrick was the kind of man who had no sense of loyalty or honor. If Warrick could kill his own personal guards without hesitation, what would stop him from killing a stranger? Mulder was certain that the moment things went south, Warrick would be the first to flee. Given the choice, he'd never willingly risk his life as Warrick's sacrificial pawn. But now, there was no turning back.With his undercover identity exposed and him helping Warrick escape, Mulder became a sworn enemy of West Lucozia. His name was now on the most-wanted list.Tonight was their best chance to escape. If they missed it, finding another way out would be nearly impossible.There was only one path left for him—kill whoever stood in his way and make it onto that escape boat."Enough talk, punk. Let's see what you're really made of," Mulder said.After weighing his options, he gritted his teeth and finally decided to draw his longsword. His fig

"You had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next," Dustin said.With a slight squeeze of his fingers, the steel blades clamped between them shattered with a sharp clang.Before the two Hall of Gods members could even react, Dustin waved his hand.The two men were sent flying as if they'd been hit by a truck, hurtling over 30 feet through the air. Blood sprayed from their mouths and noses before they hit the ground. They were critically injured and on the verge of death.Dustin slowly turned his head and looked at the man who had just tried to ambush him.The man glanced at the broken sword in his hand, then at Dustin, who looked utterly unfazed. He hesitated for a split second—then bolted.With a powerful leap, he dove straight for the sea. He knew Dustin's strength was on a completely different level. There was no chance of outrunning him on land, so the only hope was to disappear into the water.It might have worked—if not for what happened next.Just before he hit

"You're not a fisherman? Who the hell are you?"Mulder's guard shot up the moment he got a clear look at the young man's face.Fishermen who spent their days at sea were usually tanned from the sun, but this one had a fair complexion. It felt a little strangeNoticing something was off, the men behind Mulder drew their blades and fixed their sharp gazes on the fisherman.The so-called fisherman standing guard wasn't just anyone—it was Dustin, who had been waiting for them all along.Since his plan was set in motion, he'd been stationed there from morning until midnight. After what felt like an eternity, his targets had finally arrived."Isn't it obvious? I'm here to capture you."Dustin rose from the deck and rolled his shoulders before speaking in an even tone. "If you don't want to die, surrender now. Otherwise, it'll be too late.""Watch out! It could be an ambush." Mulder swiftly pulled out his dagger. His sharp gaze scanned the surroundings for any sign of hidden troops.

As night fell, Warrick sat motionless in his room as he tried to calm his mind through meditation. He had always been able to clear his mind with ease. But tonight, no matter how hard he tried, focus eluded him. A restless unease settled over him and refused to let him relax.Nearly two hours passed before Mulder's scouts finally returned. This time, they brought good news.The smuggling route they had scouted was completely safe, with no signs of an ambush. The West Lucozia army had yet to discover this potential escape route.Once everything was confirmed, Mulder let out a breath of relief. Warrick, too, finally felt the weight lift from his chest."Since the route is safe, we should set out immediately to avoid any unexpected complications." Warrick said. He had no intention of waiting any longer. He was a wanted man, and every moment in West Lucozia increased his chances of capture. There was no telling when the army might surround him. Only by escaping to Thaloria would he

After a hearty meal, the burly Warrick sprawled lazily onto the bed and dozed off. He slept soundly till dusk, lost in a deep dream. When the sky was painted in brilliant hues of the setting sun, only then did he wake up leisurely.The exhaustion from the previous day seemed to have melted away. He felt invigorated, refreshed, and in high spirits.At that moment, Leigh had already set the table in the hall with quiet efficiency. Compared to the first meal, this spread was far more lavish.At the center of the table sat a whole roasted pig. Its golden-brown skin glistened with a rich, crispy sheen. The mouthwatering aroma filled the room, making it impossible not to crave a bite.Warrick had never been one for formalities. The moment he saw the feast, he didn't hesitate. He strode over, took a seat, and started digging in. He ate with zero restraint without sparing a single thought for Mulder, who was still out gathering intel.After a while, half of the roast pig was gone. His fac

"Who is it?" Warrick's grip tightened around the hilt of his steel blade. His eyes, sharp and alert, were like those of a startled predator—full of caution and menace.For the past few days, he had been on edge, like a cornered animal. He barely slept and was constantly on high alert, fearing danger would strike at any moment.The door slowly creaked open. An elderly man with gray hair stepped inside with a tray of fruit and pastries in both hands.Before he could even register what was happening, a flash of cold steel appeared, and Warrick's blade was at the elderly man's throat.The elderly man trembled with fear. The tray slipped from his grasp, and fruit and pastries scattered on the floor."Easy, Sir Prescott. He's one of us." Mulder stepped forward and pressed down on the flat of Warrick's blade with a finger. He smiled and explained, "His name's Leigh Houston. He's mute and has served the Hall of Gods for years. He keeps watch over this tunnel entrance and has never slipp

"Here's the problem—even if we know Warrick's intentions, how do we stop him?" Austin asked.Right now, Warrick had already disappeared without a trace. Austin's team hadn't even come close enough to get a hold of him, so there was no way to track him down.West Lucozia's vast territory and resources made it impossible to seal off every exit route completely. While it might be manageable in the short term, prolonging such an operation would significantly impact West Lucozia's economy. Wasting resources on a single fugitive wasn't a wise move."Warrick is a wanted man across the entire city. There's no way he's leaving through official channels. He'll have to sneak his way out," Dustin analyzed. He continued, "According to the maritime charts, if he's traveling from West Lucozia to Artea, he'll have to go through Thaloria. That's our lead. Get someone on it immediately—find out how many smuggling routes there are from West Lucozia to Thaloria.""Got it. I'll get it done right away

"Damn you, Mulder! You've really screwed me over this time." Axel gnashed his teeth as rage boiled inside him. Mulder's betrayal hadn't just implicated Axel's sister, but it had also dragged Axel himself into the mess.Mulder had climbed the ranks to assistant chief of the City Defenders in just a few years, and Axel had played a major role in backing him.Now that this mess had blown up, Axel was right in the middle of it. No matter how he tried to explain, he was going to take the fall for it."Everyone, follow me! Let's capture that traitor."After learning Mulder's escape route, Axel waved his hand and led his enforcement team out at full speed.He had already messed up by failing to capture Warrick, which was a serious lapse in duty. Now, with his brother-in-law openly rebelling against them, things had only gotten worse.If Axel didn't turn this situation around and bring those traitors to justice, his days as an enforcement team captain were numbered.After a thorough s
