An Understated Dominance Chapter 448
Jessica's eyes had turned hostile."That's odd. We've tested our antidote multiple times. There's no way it would fail." Peter began feeling slightly nervous as well."What now?" Jessica demanded with a frown."This place is too poorly equipped. There's nothing better I can do." Peter answered seriously. "So you turned out to be useless after all?" Jessica's face darkened further. The person she thought was her husband's savior turned out to be a quack doctor!"Why don't you think of another solution, Dr. Peter?" Quentin insisted."It's futile. The technology your country uses is too dated. I can only cure him back in my country." Peter shook his head, feeling proud of his country."Just admit that you can't do it and stop blaming our facilities or technology." Dustin retorted cooly."As if you'd be able to treat something I can't!" Peter humphed haughtily. "This is the difference between traditional medicine and modern medicine. You need all sorts of equipment, but we only

Not long after he spat out the dark blood, Hector came around. Although his body was weak, it was a miracle that he'd made it.As for Peter, when he saw Hector regain consciousness, he admitted defeat and apologized to Dustin sincerely. He said that he'd been foolish to underestimate the power of traditional medicine and that he'd resign from his position after returning to his country to start learning traditional medicine instead.Dustin decided to let the man be. After all, Peter may be a proud man, but he sincerely respected those who were stronger than him.The rest of the Harmon family also resumed their activities after making sure that Hector was fine. Quentin, however, made sure to glare at Dustin on his way out."How are you feeling, Dad? Are you in pain anywhere?" Ruth walked over to the bed, holding a glass of warm water."I'm fine. I just feel slightly bloated." Hector took two sips."Duh. Look at the blood you threw up. It's full of maggots!" Ruth told him, shaken.

"Huh?" Hector turned around and looked at Jessica, who reluctantly said, "You were in critical condition, so I became desperate and told him that as long as he's able to treat you, I'll let the two of them meet.""That's fine. Your intentions were good." Hector didn't get angry but responded calmly instead. "I agree to let you two meet, but you'd better not mess around. I'll have someone watching you. Got it?""Yes!" Dustin agreed immediately."Ruth, lead him to your sister," Hector instructed."Okay!" Ruth chirped.Natasha has been waiting for this chance for ages, and today, the two would finally get to meet."Oh, that reminds me …" Before leaving the room, Dustin halted and turned his head around. "Mr. Harmon, mystic poison isn't a simple issue. The person who poisoned you probably has more in store. Be careful of those around you.""Got it." Hector nodded. He has always lived in seclusion, so it wasn't easy to poison him. It was also worth noting that tomorrow was the ann

Meanwhile, in the backyard, a gorgeous woman sat gracefully on the arched bridge over the pond, her gaze fixed on the fish swimming in the water.Her feet dangled in the air, and her toes would occasionally break the water's surface. Bathed in warm sunlight, she resembled a fairy, taking one's breath away effortlessly. Even the colorful blossoms in the garden paled in comparison to her.There was a splash as the woman flung a handful of fish feed into the pond.Instantly, thousands of fish swarmed near her and thrashed around, splashing water everywhere. The colorful fish painted a gorgeous painting as they fought for good."I envy you fish. You can live without worrying about anything, unlike me, who can't even decide what I like." The woman sighed, her expression turning sad."Who said you can't?" A familiar voice rang out behind her.The woman froze before laughing at herself. "I'm even beginning to hallucinate in broad daylight now.""Hallucinate? It's not that serious, is

Knowing Natasha's temper, eloping did sound like something she might do. With the family gathering right around the corner, Mrs. Davys couldn't let something like that happen. "Fine. You can stay." Natasha wasn't in the mood to argue, so she dragged Dustin over to the gazebo over the pond. Mrs. Davys was just about to follow them when Ruth stopped her. "My dad only said to keep an eye on them, not stalk them! Why would you impede on a couple's private conversation?" Mrs. Davys thought about it for a moment and decided to wait where she was. After all, the two of them were still within her sights, and she could see every move they made."How did you get in here, Dear? My father isn't the type of person who would give in easily." Natasha asked, pouring two cups of tea."I saved his life, so I asked to meet you in return." Dustin gave her a run-down of everything that had happened.After hearing the story, Natasha grumbled. "What a reckless old man!""That's why I came to talk
An Understated Dominance Chapter 453
Dustin did not leave right after meeting Natasha. Instead, he stayed in the Harmon estate under the pretense of treating Hector's illness.Naturally, to prevent the two of them from eloping, Mrs. Davys kept a close eye on them the entire time, separating them every time their actions became intimate. During the night, the two were forbidden from seeing each other, which Dustin obeyed begrudgingly.With that, the night passed uneventfully. The next morning, the Harmons' annual family gathering had officially begun. Countless people began pouring into the estate, luxury cars casually clustering the plaza.As one of the Fabulous Five, the Harmon family was incredibly prosperous, consisting of hundreds of family members. Besides those from the Harmon family, loyal company staff and other important family guests had all been invited as well, making the place much livelier. Hector, the head of the family, looked much better after receiving another round of treatment from Dustin.

"What's going on? Who did this?"Natasha's brow furrowed tightly as she studied the people on the floor, her face turning cold. Things would still be fine if only a few people were poisoned. Now, however, hundreds of people had been poisoned simultaneously. The consequences would be detrimental. The person who did this clearly only had one aim–to get rid of the Harmon family, once and for all!"Dad! Mom! Uncles!"Ruth panicked after seeing her family fall to the floor consecutively and darted toward them, but before she could reach them, she also spat out blood before crashing to the floor."Ruth!" Natasha paled. She was about to rush forward, but Dustin pulled her back. "Don't go there. It's the air that's poisonous, not the wine!""Then, what should we do? We have to save them!" Natasha cried worriedly, struggling to keep calm when faced with her poisoned family members."Take this pill first." Dustin drew out a white pill and put it into Natasha's mouth. It was a Curax, wh

After struggling for half an hour, everyone finally managed to drink the antidote. Although they were still weak and pale, their lives were no longer in danger.By the time they were finished, Natasha collapsed on the floor, worn out, and Dustin heaved a sigh of relief.It was fortunate that he had so many drugs on hand, or there'd be no way he could deal with so many poisoned patients. "Thank God you're here, Dustin, or our family would have been done for." Hector pulled himself up, his face full of gratitude. The Harmon family had nearly been wiped out."You're welcome, Mr. Harmon. I just did what I had to." Dustin replied, waving his arm."Uncle Hector, don't you find this suspicious?" Quentin suddenly asked. "Why does this guy have the antidote?""What are you implying?" Hector frowned."Everyone who joined the gathering is either from our family or our esteemed guests. Everyone knows each other very well, while this guy is merely a stranger," Quentin said, looking suspicio

Dustin had boarded the plane back to Oakvale. His trip to Sacred Wrym Summit had been full of ups and downs. From the Combat Tournament to the invasion of the Hall of Gods, his journey had been perilous. Thankfully, the outcome was favorable. He had won the championship at the tournament, acquired three Dracan essences, and ultimately foiled the Hall of Gods' plan. 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. Though their identity was still unknown, she suspected it was most likely one of the three princes.With the position of heir to the throne still uncertain, the three princes were all eager to secure their power. Whoever obtained the Dracan essence would be blessed with fortune and have a higher c

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

Willem's wings, black as night with a metallic sheen, erupted from his back. Fully extended, they stretched over 30 feet. With a gentle flap, a storm of wind and eerie howls swept through the air. The sheer force was intimidating to behold.His appearance had also undergone a drastic transformation. Willem's once-handsome face was now gaunt, his skin wrinkled, and his cheekbones jutted out. Fangs protruded from his mouth, and two sharp horns sprouted from his head. He had grown taller, but his body was unnaturally thin, with his ribs and sternum visible beneath his skin. From a distance, he looked like a towering, monstrous skeleton. It was an unsettling sight that sent a chill down anyone's spine.This was Willem's ultimate form. After the transformation, his speed, strength, defense, and reflexes were greatly enhanced. His thirst for blood grew even more intense, turning him into a bloodthirsty demon.The gods, who had expressed dissatisfaction moments ago, now stood paralyzed
