"Well …" Dustin furrowed his brow, seemingly hesitating."Your Highness!" Lincon suddenly clasped his hands and claimed, "I'm willing to help you with anything you face. "If you trust me, let me handle this for you. I will secretly contact those loyal ministers and gather them. When the timing is right, we'll surely assist you. You only need to give us a call!""You're indeed a righteous person. I respect you for that!" Austin couldn't help but praise."If that's the case, thank you." Dustin clasped his hands back at him."It's my pleasure to be able to do something for you," Lincon replied."Sir Blaze, something bad has happened!" a guard ran inside and shouted. "We got the news that soldiers have surrounded West Lucozian castle. The monarchy is in a dire situation!""What? It's being surrounded?" Austin and Dustin's expressions went grim when they heard that.They were only out of the castle for two days. However, they didn't expect a change to happen so quickly."What happ

It was late at night, and a large number of armed soldiers formed a human wall outside the castle, surrounding it.A dense crowd stood outside the castle, easily numbering tens of thousands!These were only the vanguard forces. There was still a team of armed military forces outside of the castle.They were the soldiers of the Northern Four Sovereigns. Among them were also Julius' guards.However, they had disguised themselves to blend in. Meanwhile, Eloise was wearing mourning clothes and a hat inside the castle. She had an indifferent expression as she stood outside the gate.She was also holding a sharp sword. This caused her to look formidable and full of killing intent.As the princess consort, she stepped forward unhesitatingly at the most critical moment. She stood alone at the forefront.Jaxon stood behind her, along with Draken Guardians dressed in combat gear.Although there were not many of them, they were the most powerful force in the monarchy.Behind the Draken

The heavy castle door was banged on relentlessly, and the noise echoed with a resounding impact.Each strike resembled the blow of a giant hammer, resonating deeply in the hearts of everyone within."Open the door!" Eloise shouted, ordering the servants to open the door.The unexpected move caused the soldiers attempting to break in to be completely baffled. They had no idea why Eloise would do such a thing.At this time, it made more sense for Eloise to close the door and defend till the end. Thus, they wondered why Eloise took the initiative to open the door.Perhaps there was a trap inside."Draven, Atticus, Mortimer, Ignatius, come out!" Eloise called out while holding her sword.The soldiers outside were reluctant to approach because of her formidable presence. The four names she called out were the Northern Four Sovereigns, the main forces behind the rebellion."What's the matter? Do you guys not dare to admit what you've done? Are you guys just a bunch of cowards?" See

"The only way into the castle is over my dead body!" With a huge sword in her hand, Eloise stood alone with great courage at the main entrance to defend the castle. She wasn't actually a strong fighter. At most, she could pass as a divine-level martial artist. However, her current presence was stronger than that of a grandmaster.The common soldiers and even Draven were stunned. His brow was locked in a deep frown, and he didn't dare to move. The only thing he could do was to look at the three other sovereigns.Threats and the palace revolution aside, they needed a valid reason to attack Eloise. If they didn't, the people would protest and turn against them. They surrounded the castle in the name of staking out the killer. They'd be able to get off the hook if they acted a little brashly. They could use overwhelming sadness and being overly emotional as their excuse for their rude behavior.However, they'd never be able to explain themselves if the princess died in the revolt.

Eloise was delighted to see her son's safe return. However, her happiness was soon replaced with gloominess. She quickly realized that Austin came back with the same number of people and didn't bring extra military support."Did he fail?" Eloise frowned slightly, and her heart was getting heavier by the minute. Their only hope was to get military support from the Southern Four Sovereigns. Only then could they fight the Northern Four Sovereigns. From the looks of it, things were not looking up."How dare you! Who gave you permission to enter and search the castle? Are you courting death?" Austin shouted. His voice was as loud as thunder, and everyone present could hear him. It was almost deafening. The soldiers under the leadership of the four sovereigns were suddenly afraid to move."Oh, it's Prince Austin. You have returned." Draven let out a short laugh. He added, "We, the Four Sovereigns, have discovered that the killer is in the castle. To avenge Prince Rufus, we need to

"Fuck!" Austin was suddenly filled with anger when he saw the fully armed soldiers rushing in. He no longer had any mercy for them as he charged forward with his sword in hand. He had already achieved the grandmaster status, and with his experience in the battlefields, he was ready for action. He stormed ahead with determination and courage."Protect the Crown Prince! Charge!" Eloise pointed her sword toward the sky. The Draken Guardians behind her quickly withdrew their weapons."Charge!" Waving his longsword, Jaxon led the Draken Guardians into the battlefield. The Draken Guardians might be a small team, but each member was a trained elite fighter. They were an invincible force under the guidance of a grandmaster, Jaxon. The team of around a hundred was like a sharp and long knife. It didn't matter if their opponent's numbers were in the tens of thousands as they'd be able to besiege the core of the army.The Four Sovereigns retreated under the protection of the royal guards

Just when Ignatius got ready to speak, he pointed to a direction while narrowing his eyes and shouted in surprise, "Look! What is that?"The others looked in the direction he was pointing. They saw a dark object in the sky heading straight down, and it crashed in the middle of their troops.The explosion was deafening, and everything quaked as dust rose. There was a gigantic wave of energy spreading outward from the point of explosion like tsunami waves. The energy wave left a trail of destruction and painful moans wherever it passed. This attack killed and wounded at least a few hundred soldiers."The fuck! What the hell was that?" Draven squinted his eyes. He couldn't see what attacked them due to the thick clouds of dust."Could it be a meteorite?" Atticus sounded a little confused."A shooting star? How could there be such a coincidence?" Mortimer refused to believe it."I can see it clearly now! It's a person!" Ignatius had good vision and pointed at where the object fell.
An Understated Dominance Chapter 1818
Ignatius was very alert. He quickly retreated with the royal guards when he saw the assassin advancing closer. Keeping himself alive was a priority now. He just needed to avoid the assassination attempt. When the assassin grew tired, he'd order the soldiers to kill him. This was the safest option."Draven, I think Ignatius is right. Safety first. I'll retreat for now." Atticus didn't dare to stay any longer as he slowly retreated with the royal guards when he saw Ignatius leaving."Hmm! All of you are just scared!" Draven frowned slightly with a disgruntled look. He then turned to look at Mortimer and expressively said, "Mortimer, you've always been a brave fighter. You're certainly not retreating like those two, right?""Of course not!" Mortimer stretched a little bit and smirked, "It's just an assassin. There's nothing to be afraid of!" He became a sovereign after a bloody and hellish experience. There was nothing he had not seen. A worthless assassin was not enough to scare

In every way, the mission had been nearly flawless.After bidding farewell to his newfound allies, Dustin joined Grace on the return flight. Four of the five Dracan essences had already been gathered, leaving only one remaining. According to Grace, the last essence had been located, and the person holding it was in Oakvale.

The chaos of the night quickly settled.By morning, as the first light of dawn broke across the horizon, Sacred Wrym Summit had regained its usual tranquility. Yet, the bloodstains across the ground and the wreckage of buildings stood as grim reminders of the previous night's violence.The military forces summoned by Grace had already taken the Hall of Gods' prisoners into custody.Rumors spread like wildfire, fueling gossip throughout the martial world as all the major guilds watched with keen interest. After all, very few in history had ever dared to challenge Sacred Wrym Summit, and a bold invasion aimed at destroying it was nothing short of unprecedented.The outcome was clear to all who bore witness. After many years, the world had come to recognize the true terror of Arion. He was no mere mortal—he was almost a godlike figure.…Inside the Hall of Gods' headquarters in Streuqua, the core members were gathered, seated in two rows on either side of the grand hall.On the thr

After dealing with the Hall of Gods' elite fighters, Arion disappeared in a blur. When he reappeared, he was hovering above the forbidden ground of Sacred Wrym Summit.The scene at the entrance to the forbidden ground was one of utter carnage. Bodies lay strewn across the ground, and rivers of blood flowed freely. All members of the Hall of Gods, including Hank, lay motionless on the ground.Dustin and Willard, both covered in blood and exuding killing intent, had fought fiercely. After a long, grueling fight, they succeeded in defending the forbidden ground of Sacred Wrym Summit. They had thwarted the Hall of Gods' plan to destroy the Dracan force.At that instant, Dustin seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up. Through the mist and darkness, he pinpointed Arion's figure hovering above. Arion smiled faintly and nodded at Dustin before disappearing again.Crossing several mountains in mere seconds, Arion arrived above the Sacred Wrym Summit's grand hall. Below, the discipl

When the dust finally settled, Arion was the only one left standing.Bailey, Willem, Anthony, Batuul, the three elite assassins from Eskus, and several gods from the Hall of Gods were either dead or gravely injured.Willem's body had been blasted into countless pieces. Each fragment wriggled on the ground as it struggled to piece together. Batuul fared even worse. He was utterly obliterated, leaving no trace behind, not even ashes. On the contrary, Bailey and the three Eskus assassins had both their arms severed and were gravely wounded. Though Anthony's limbs were still intact, his crushed internal organs left him coughing up blood. The backlash from the demonic blade had also taken a devastating toll on his body. He now appeared decades older, his face gaunt and hollow, his hair gray. His frail frame made him look like a man standing at death's door."H-How is this possible? No… this can't be happening!" Bailey's expression was a mixture of shock and disbelief as he stared a

Arion's sudden appearance caught everyone off guard. They stared, wide-eyed and slack-jawed. What was going on? Wasn't Arion already dead? How could he be standing there in front of them? Could it be a ghost?They exchanged baffled looks, and their faces were filled with disbelief. They couldn't make sense of it. How could Arion possibly be alive? It was beyond their comprehension."You… you're not dead?" No one was more shocked than Willem. After all his effort, he had finally found the chance to bite into Arion's neck and drain every drop of his blood.He was certain Arion had died—there was no way he could have survived. But if Arion was dead, who was this person standing before them?"Everyone, calm down!" Bailey spoke up. "Arion's body is still over there. This person must be an imposter."At his words, everyone turned to look at the corpse lying nearby.Bailey was right. The body was still there, and there was no way Arion could still be alive. So, the person in front o

As the Snow Maiden attacked, Batuul's illusory Elephantine stirred into action. With a mighty roar, it charged forward and slammed into Arion. Its tusks, sharp as spears, aimed directly at his chest.Caught in the swirling snow, Arion couldn't avoid the attack and quickly invoked the Glow Incantation to shield himself. The tusks collided with the barrier in a deafening crash. The impact sent Arion flying, and the golden light surrounding him shattered like glass. Clearly, the illusory Elephantine's strength had far exceeded the Glow Incantation's limits.As Arion was tossed into the air, the three-headed, six-armed Chimera Wrath seized its moment. With six different weapons in hand, it launched a relentless assault.Arion swung his sword to block but was driven further back with each blow. With no solid footing in midair, his agility was useless against the onslaught.After several exchanges, one of the Chimera's weapons struck Arion squarely in the chest, sending him crashing to

After a prolonged battle, Anthony and the others finally realized the gravity of the situation.Arion wasn't just a sword master but also had unpredictable agility. No matter how they attacked, they couldn't even land a single hit. On top of that, his sword was a constant threat.If this deadlock continued, the situation would only worsen. So, when Bailey spoke, they knew it was time for decisive action, and there was no turning back. It was either kill or be killed.At that moment, Anthony, who had been holding back, finally decided to use his ultimate technique. He bit his finger and smeared the blood across his blade. His lips moved quickly as if whispering an incantation."Snow Maiden, arise!" As soon as the words left his mouth, he swung his sword. A white figure shot out and hovered in the air. It was a woman with fair skin and mesmerizing beauty. Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, her dress was as white as snow, and her eyes had a sinister gleam.The moment she appe

"How many tricks does this old geezer have?"The impact of the divine talisman explosion left everyone both shocked and enraged. No one had expected that Arion would still manage to unleash such a powerful supreme divine power even after the Glow Incantation was broken and the lightning strikes failed to cause any harm.The impact of the thousands of divine talismans exploding at once was terrifying. Only the strongest fighters—Willem, Bailey, and Batuul—could withstand it. The rest of the group was severely injured. At that moment, they finally realized the terrifying strength of Dragonmarsh's strongest man."Impressive," Willem said, landing smoothly after being thrown back. His withered skin was now covered in cracks, and blood oozed from it.Most of the shockwave from the explosion had hit him directly. Despite his impressive defense, he still took some damage. However, these injuries were nothing to him. His wounds had already healed within a few seconds, as if nothing had hap
