"Dustin, they're planning something. You can just ignore them," Eleanor swiftly advised Dustin against it.She had volunteered herself because she was sure Sheehan wouldn't dare try anything dirty with her. But if it was Dustin, she couldn't be sure that they wouldn't make a fool out of him."Don't worry. I know what I'm doing." Dustin smiled at Eleanor before looking at Sheehan. "How should I assist you, Mr. Crock?""It's easy. I need a drop of your blood and a few strands of your hair. After that, just wait for my cue." Sheehan grinned."Sure." Dustin nodded and pulled out a silver needle to prick his index finger. Then, he squeezed a drop of his blood into an empty glass.Next, he plucked a few strands of hair and dropped them into the cup. "Will this do?" he asked."Yes, this will do." Sheehan grinned impishly and gave Ezra a look.Ezra nodded with a smile and relaxed on the couch, looking like he was ready to enjoy a show. He knew very well what Sheehan was capable of

"Don't worry, Eleanor, we're just having fun. We won't do anything to him," Ezra soothed."Hmph! You'd better not!" Eleanor frowned but held herself backShe was just worried that she might hurt Dustin if she acted rashly."Hey Crock, is he truly under your control now?" one of the ladies asked."Of course!" Sheehan grinned arrogantly. "He's nothing more than a walking corpse now. He doesn't feel pain and won't have any memories of what's happening."He will do whatever I ask without questioning and never remember doing it after this.""Really? Well, can you get him to hit himself, then?" the lady asked eagerly."Sure." Sheehan smirked as he turned to Dustin and ordered, "Now, slap yourself across the face with your hand.""Sheehan! You—" Eleanor was just about to stop them, but Dustin had already lifted his hand. Then, under the astonished looks of everyone present, he slapped Sheehan.The slap sent Sheehan staggering backward. He felt the world spinning, and blood bega

"Damn it! What's going on? Has he gone mad?"Ezra's brows were tightly knit as he looked at Dustin, who looked like he had been possessed. But Ezra dared not go near him because he was afraid he'd be slapped too.Ezra quickly shouted, "Sheehan! The guy's gone mad! Quick! Break the spell!""Ter-ter-terminate!"Sheehan promptly tore the talisman off Dustin's chest as he endured the immense pain he was in. The next moment, Dustin shuddered and stopped moving.Everyone let out a long sigh of relief. It was finally over.Damn it! The bastard truly had the strength of a bull once he lost control. No ordinary man could hold him back!"What happened?" After taking several deep breaths, Dustin slowly opened his eyes. With a look of confusion on his face, he asked, "What just happened?"He looked around him, looking bewildered. "Hey … What happened to all your faces?"The few young men who had been slapped gritted their teeth in annoyance. Though they were fuming inwardly, they co

"Alright, that's it for today." Eleanor stood up slowly, glanced at Ezra, and deliberately said, "I'm going to have lunch with Dustin. We'll get going now. You guys have fun." As she said that, she held Dustin's arm and sashayed out of the VIP room.The people left behind looked at each other, upset. The good mood earlier had been ruined completely."Sheehan, how are you feeling? Are you alright?" Ezra checked his injuries and realized that Sheehan was in bad shape. His face had been disfigured. Originally, he was already not good-looking, but now he looked worse."Fuck! That bastard was vicious! I've never been humiliated this badly!" Sheehan gritted his remaining teeth in anger."I just wanted you to play a trick on that guy. Who knew you'd be embarrassing yourself instead?" Ezra shook his head. Sheehan shouldn't have embarrassed himself by showing off if he wasn't that skilled."That's weird. The occult spells that I used to control others would always work. I don't kno

"Hahaha! Dustin, I almost died laughing when you started slapping Sheehan. Granted that he's fat, but he looked so swollen!" As they left the Imperial Oasis Club, Eleanor laughed uncontrollably. Her depressed mood disappeared in an instant.She initially brought Dustin over to provoke Ezra, which worked surprisingly well. Not only did he get back at that jerk, but Dustin even taught his unsavory companions a lesson. It was very satisfying."After all, they brought it upon themselves. If they didn't have the intention to do any harm, I wouldn't have beaten them up." Dustin smiled calmly."What do we call it? Cutting off your nose to spite your face!" Eleanor started laughing again. She clearly knew that Sheehan wanted to play a trick on Dustin. It was too bad that he wasn't very skilled and lost control. Instead of pranking Dustin successfully, his plan backfired. This was just cosmic justice."They are all bad people. You should distance yourself from them if you can." Dust

"Caitlyn's here with me as well," Maximus replied."After Mr. Jones left, Caitlyn's quite lonely at home. That's why I brought her along for a little adventure. "We haven't been to Oakvale. We heard it was a great place and wanted to see it for ourselves.""Oakvale may be a great place, but it also has its dark sides. You wouldn't even know it if someone sold you out," Dustin said helplessly."That's why we have you, Dustin. We have nothing to be afraid of." Maximus laughed heartily."That's enough. Stop flattering me. Where are you now?" Dustin asked."Oh, we just got off the train. We're at the south station," Maximus replied."Wait there. I'm coming to get you." After the call ended, Dustin asked the driver to turn around and headed straight to the south station.The car stopped at the south station after an hour."Dustin! Over here!"Dustin saw Maximus and Caitlyn waving happily to him as soon as he exited the car. They had a lot of luggage with them. Looking at them,

Dustin didn't force Caitlyn to stay at the five-star hotel. Instead, he took them to another suburb further away from the city and bought a bungalow there. It was fully furnished with two stories and a small garden. They could move in right away after paying for the house.Dustin had been thinking about it. He knew staying at hotels or renting rooms would be inconvenient as he planned to stay longer in Oakvale. With that, he bought a bungalow to make things easier. He had a lot of money anyway.Caitlyn felt much better once they moved into the bungalow. She was glad to find out that it was a good investment, as the property prices around Oakvale were on the rise. Besides, they could save more by cooking at home. It was a sweet deal.Once the house had been paid for, Dustin took both of them to buy daily necessities and showed them around the neighborhood. It was already nightfall when they finally settled in the new house.Dustin and Maximus were both starving at the end

There were around a dozen gaming tables offering different games, and the guests scattered across different tables. In the VIP lounge, guests had a beautiful waitress attending exclusively to their needs as they gambled. It was the epitome of excellent customer service.Only the rich and famous could enter the VIP lounge. The simplest bet could casually start with hundreds of thousands or even millions. For the generous ones, they would even wager tens of millions and hundreds of millions. This was something a commoner could never achieve in their lifetime.Dustin immediately spotted two familiar figures seated at the central table as soon as he entered the VIP lounge. It was Cody and Harper. With Harper's status, it was obvious that she couldn't have entered the VIP lounge alone. Cody must be the person who wanted to meet him."Hey! Dustin's here! Join us! Let's play a few rounds." Cody immediately stood up and welcomed Dustin enthusiastically. Though he wore a friendly smile, the

"Your Royal Highness, it's an honor to have you here," Jonathan said.Upon seeing the distinguished guest arrive, he quickly pulled himself together and aside his grief. He led his family to greet Tristan, and they bowed in respect.Before they could finish the gesture, Tristan raised a hand to stop them. "No need for such formalities," he said. "The deceased deserves our respect."He turned to Jovian's portrait, which was displayed in the mourning hall, and sighed deeply.Tristan continued, "Mr. Jovian's untimely passing is truly a great loss to Dragonmarsh. May his soul rest in peace. My condolences to your family during this difficult time."Jonathan's eyes were filled with tears as he bowed his head slightly. "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kind words. My family is heartbroken over my brother's tragic death."Tristan nodded slightly. His gaze quickly swept across the hall before asking, "I've heard that Duke Lachshire fainted from grief. How is he doing now?"Jonathan

The unrest in West Lucozia finally ended with the capture of Warrick.Every official who was his accomplice was thoroughly investigated. Those who needed to be arrested were taken into custody, and those who deserved to be punished were executed.After the purge, more than 300 officials in West Lucozia were removed from their posts. Those guilty were arrested, and those whose crimes were severe were executed.Under Austin's iron-fisted reforms, West Lucozia's government underwent a complete overhaul. Corruption, bribery, and the tangled web of illegal deals were swept away like dust in the wind.The citizens quickly noticed the difference. When they visited government offices, they no longer faced delays, refusals, or demands for bribes.Long-neglected public issues began to move forward, thanks to the organized efforts of newly appointed officials. Things were improving across the board.Instead of fearing the crackdown, the citizens welcomed it. The corrupt officials who had dr

Austin's expression also turned serious as he saw the doubt in Dustin's eyes. He knew Dustin wouldn't worry over nothing.There were many strange beings in Streuqua, including vampires, werewolves, and the like. These supernatural species were notoriously hard to kill. Even after being decapitated, they weren't necessarily dead.Austin wasn't sure if Poseidon had that kind of ability. After all, the Hall of Gods and its so-called royal gods were still a mystery to most people in West Lucozia.To play it safe, they needed to recover Poisedon's head for their own peace of mind.Out on the water, Jaxon led a team of soldiers and ship crews to comb the sea in search of Poisedon's severed head.At the docks, all eyes turned to Warrick, Mulder, and the others. They had been tied up and were now being dragged before Dustin and Austin one by one.Warrick looked pale, but there was a certain defiance in his eyes. He knew his fate was sealed. After Dustin killed Poseidon, Warrick knew his

Moments later, the once-turbulent sea finally calmed. All that remained was a dense cloud of steam. Like a giant beast, it slowly drifted across the water, as if telling the tale of the heart-pounding battle that had just taken place.Dustin stood on the surface of the sea with the Celestial Blade in hand. His face was grim as he looked ahead. His clothes were torn, and his body was covered in cuts and bruises. Blood streamed from his wounds and dyed the water beneath him red.Suddenly, a headless corpse floated to the surface. Covered in blue scales, it had torn, ragged wings on its back. The body was riddled with gaping wounds as the dark blue blood seeping from it dissipated into the water.The body belonged to Poseidon."H-He's dead? How is that possible?"Looking at the headless corpse floating on the sea, Warrick and the others couldn't help but stare in shock. They never imagined Dustin could slay one of the world's mightiest royal gods with a single blow. If they hadn'

Poseidon slowly rose from the seawater, his wound now fully healed. A flicker of madness flashed in his eyes. The severe injury he just sustained not only failed to make him retreat but instead ignited an even stronger fighting spirit within him.He sneered. "Logan, you've surprised me. But you're still going to die today."Poseidon spun his trident wildly, and the already turbulent sea grew even more violent. The waters swirled around him and formed a massive vortex. It expanded rapidly and soon reached nearly 1,000 feet wide. The surrounding waters were sucked in with terrifying force.The suction was so powerful that even Warrick, Mulder, and the others, watching from a distance, had to brace themselves to avoid being pulled in."Hmm?"Dustin frowned as he felt an overwhelming pressure closing in. The force of the swirling vortex before him was terrifying, as if it could swallow everything in its path. But he didn't flinch. In a flash, he launched forward like a streak of

Poseidon scoffed. "You're so full of yourself." The surrounding seawater surged violently. It transformed into countless razor-sharp water spikes and whistled toward Dustin. The deadly edges glinted under the sunlight. Like a silver rainstorm, the barrage swallowed every inch of space around him.Dustin's sharp gaze locked onto the incoming strikes. With a light swing of the Celestial Blade, a streak of black sword aura shot out. Every water spike in its path shattered into mist and rained down in a cascade of droplets.However, Poseidon refused to relent. His attacks came in endless waves, an unbroken torrent.He gripped his trident with both hands and spun it, creating several blue energy rings. Each one expanded rapidly and surged toward Dustin like crashing waves.Dustin's figure flickered and vanished from his spot. The next second, he reappeared just outside the energy rings.Hovering in midair, he spun at incredible speed. The Celestial Blade in his hand turned into a b

"Logan, I have to admit that you're stronger than I thought. I never expected you'd push me this far," Poseidon said.His arms slowly spread wide, and his blue eyes glowed with murderous intent. "As a mark of respect, I will give it everything I've got. You'll witness the true extent of my power."With a flick of his hand, he made a grabbing gesture. His trident, which had fallen to the bottom of the sea, shot back up through the water and landed firmly in his grasp.Compared to his earlier arrogance, Poseidon now stood with a newfound seriousness. It wasn't just Dustin's strength that had him on edge but his terrifying potential.At only 20, Dustin already possessed this level of strength. If he continued to grow, he would become a serious threat to the Hall of Gods. Hence, Poseidon resolved to eliminate him today."Watch closely," he said.Poseidon slowly raised his trident and gripped it like a javelin. While channeling his energy into the weapon, it pulsed with an intense blu

Dustin was Dragonmarsh's elite prodigy, while Poseidon was the famous royal god of the Hall of Gods.Every move they exchanged unleashed destructive power. Within moments, the area within a 300-foot radius was reduced to wreckage.Dustin wielded his true energy-infused longsword. Each swing unleashed a blinding flare of light as if it could split the sky apart with the Celestial Blade.On the contrary, Poseidon's trident commanded the winds and rains. Each strike could summon huge rolling waves as if he were a god reigning over the forces of nature.Sword aura clashed against walls of water and plunged the entire area into chaos.Warrick and the others watched with rapt attention. Their eyes were locked on the battle ahead as they tried to make sense of the chaos.But Dustin and Poseidon were moving so fast that their actions were almost impossible to follow. Their movements blurred together, and they could only catch flashes of two figures constantly clashing. Their strikes ca

"Let me correct you," Dustin said.As his hand slowly tightened into a fist, a white longsword formed from his true energy. "In Dragonmarsh, there is no 'God. ' We only have the Lord of the Dead."The moment the words left his mouth, a tempest of sword aura exploded outward. Within a radius of several dozen yards, the winds howled, sand and stones were sent flying, and the waves along the shore grew even more violent."Such overwhelming pressure. That sword aura is insane. Is this Logan's actual strength?"Feeling the surge of energy, Warrick and the others couldn't help but turn pale. It was then they realized that Dustin hadn't been fighting seriously before. Or perhaps, with their strength, they hadn't even earned the right to make him fight for real. They figured only someone of Poseidon's caliber could force Dustin to go all out."Interesting… truly fascinating." Poseidon suddenly laughed. "I thought you were just a pup, but it turns out you're a hungry wolf. Now, this is s
