Chapter 578
Author: Marina Vittori
Kate snorted. "You sure are jealous of Dylan, even when you are talentless. How petty is that? If you are unhappy about Dylan, tell me, who else is better than him?"

Kate's remark caught Natasha off guard. Dylan was indeed the best among other family members in their generation because of his government ranks.

"What's the matter? Cat got your tongue? Is it that hard to admit that Dylan's better than you?" Kate sneered at her.

"Natasha, you dodged a bullet today, all thanks to me! You'd better show some gratitude," Dylan chimed in, much to Natasha's dismay. He and Kate seemed to be working together to bring her down.

"All thanks to you? How?" Dustin did not like it when they laughed at Natasha. "Lord Xenos is a viceroy, and you're just a colonel. You're nowhere near his level, so why did you think he showed up for you?"

"Are you claiming that he showed up for you?" Dylan scoffed.

"You guessed right. He came here because of me." Dustin nodded, much to everyone's surprise. But

    "I thought you guys love to laugh at others. Why aren't you laughing now?" After Dustin displayed his Consultant Badge, he openly confronted those who had looked down upon him.Dylan, Kate, and Natasha's friends gaped at the sight of the silver Consultant Badge on the table. They were smiling no more. After all, a Consultant Badge from the Hill family was a rare treasure coveted by many. With that badge in hand, one would have the backing of the Hill family, which also came with the perks of accessing and utilizing the family resources. It was not an understatement to describe the badge as priceless!However, it raised another question—how did the badge end up in Dustin's possession? Was he telling the truth when he said that he had saved Sir Paul's life? At the thought, everyone looked at Dustin differently."T-that's impossible! Why would you have the Consultant Badge from the Hill family?" Kate was still reeling from the shock, even though she was rather doubtful."I explained i

    "That's right! The Hill family's Consultant Badge is as hard as steel. Only a counterfeit would be that brittle!" Kate supported Dylan's claim, and everyone else nodded in realization."So, it's a fake after all. That gave me a good shock.""This guy knows no shame! I can't believe he created a counterfeit badge just for show. He's too much!""Hmph! It's fortunate that Sir Dylan was smart enough to see through him. Otherwise, we'd all have been fooled!" Most of the crowd started berating Dustin. They trusted a wealthy son more than a lowly commoner. It was ironic how a successful person could blabber nonsense, and it would be taken as the absolute truth. While that same person, before becoming successful, could tell the absolute truth, and his words would be treated as garbage. Dustin spoke to Dylan coldly, "Dylan Harmon, have you thought of the consequences of destroying the Consultant Badge and distorting the truth in public?" "The consequences? Ha! You're the one tricking p

    "Dylan!" The sudden turn of events left everyone stunned. Nobody expected Dylan to collapse and spurt blood when he was still laughing a second ago. "Get him to the hospital, quickly!" Hector made a prompt decision and ordered someone to carry Dylan out. "Hey, brat! Did you do this?" Jacob was about to leave when he thought of something and turned back, his expression menacing."What does it have to do with me? It's his old injuries that resurfaced. If you're looking for someone to blame, you should blame Tyler since he attacked him earlier." Dustin shrugged. "You—" Jacob was exasperated. However, he couldn't start a scene without evidence. "Jacob. You should go now. It's more important to save Dylan," Hector reminded him. "Let's go!" Jacob glared at Dustin and left angrily, not wanting to waste any more time. Trent and Kate followed behind them. As the Harmons' most talented genius, Dylan's safety would affect their future. He was already considered equal in standing to Hec

    While Dustin froze, Natasha blushed. "This … this is too sudden. I'm not prepared for it!" She followed that up by asking, "Have you chosen a date? When are we getting married?""Hey, you thought I was for real? You should be embarrassed!" Hector glared at her. Natasha pouted. "You said it yourself. Why are you yelling at me instead?""Alright, it's time to get serious." Hector's smile gradually disappeared. "Even though we overcame the situation for now, this matter is far from over. With Tyler's personality, he will not take this sitting down.""Will Tyler still act recklessly with Lord Xenos and Sir Paul behind us?" Natasha raised an eyebrow."Tyler might not confront us directly, but he will definitely act behind the scenes." Hector was solemn as he continued, "Lord Xenos and Sir Paul have also repaid their favor. They won't help us a second time. We can only face him ourselves now.""Does that mean trouble will continue brewing for us?" Natasha looked pensive. "There will

    The next morning, at Nicholson Corp., Dustin reported to work as usual. As Chief Security Officer, his work was relatively easy. He would punch in in the morning and patrol the area with a few officers, and he would have free time after that. He could do anything he wanted since no one was there to keep watch on him. Dustin had just sat down in his office when someone knocked on his door. He looked up and found that it was the Vice Chairman, Hank Hoffman."Mr. Rhys, are you free? Can I have a word with you?" Hank walked in the door with a smile. Remaining in his seat, Dustin greeted him, "Mr. Hoffman, how can I help you?" "Mr. Rhys, I had my friend bring back this aged Narcissus Tea from Mount Woui. I hope you like it." Hank took out a delicate gift box and placed it on his table.Dustin raised an eyebrow. "Aged Narcissus Tea? This must be pretty expensive.""It's nothing, just over a million dollars." Hank smiled. Dustin declined his gift. "Mr. Hoffman, this is too valuabl

    Dustin answered the call and instantly heard Julie's voice blaring through the speakers. "Dustin, Dahlia got into a traffic accident! Come and help us out, quick!""An accident?" Startled, Dustin probed for more information. "What happened? Is she hurt?""It's a long story. I'll send you our location. Come here right now!" Julie urged."Okay!" Without wasting any time, Dustin ended the call and rushed out the door.…Over at Dahlia's side, a Maserati and a Bentley had run into each other on the streets. Both cars were heavily damaged, and there were shards of car glass scattered around the point of collision.After the collision, several young men and women came out of the Bentley, and at the forefront of the group was a young lady with hair that was dyed a bright red, and clad in luxurious branded goods from head to toe.After she got out of her car, she immediately went up to Dahlia's car and began banging on the window, yelling rudely, "Hey! Can't you fucking drive? Get out of the g

    "Oh, I'm going too far now, am I? Well, so what if I am? What are you going to do about it?" The red-haired lady stood with arms akimbo as she glared daggers at Dahlia."I've called the cops! You better not act rashly!" Dahlia warned. She had Julie make several calls as soon as they had the accident."The cops?" The red-haired girl laughed obnoxiously as her friends behind her watched on unkindly, obviously having no regard for the authorities. "Do you think that I'd be daunted by mere cops? I'll have you know, I can kill you right this instant and chuck you into the ocean as fish food, and no one will be able to do anything about it!" She laughed nastily."Surely you can't be above the law!" Dahlia shook her head with a frown, her brows furrowed."The law? Haha! I am the fucking law! Now, pay me ten million dollars, or I'll show you what I'm capable of!" The red-haired lady threatened."Ten million dollars? That's daylight robbery!" Julie was aggravated. Even if she had bought that ca

    The young men and women, who were with the red-haired lady, began clamoring, disregarding Dustin's presence."Get down on your knees and apologize, or I'll break your arms and legs!" Dustin demanded coldly."My! cocky, aren't you?" One of the men walked up to Dustin and poked him in the chest rudely, taunting him as he did so, "Do you know who we are, loser? How dare you act so arrogantly with us? I'll—" Before he could finish his sentence, he was struck with full force across the face. A loud slap could be heard as he was sent flying through the air, crashing through a car window head-first. The top half of his body went right through the window and into the car, whereas the other half of his body dangled outside of the car."How dare you slap my friend? Do you have a death wish?" The lady with the red hair was infuriated by Dustin's actions. In one swift motion, she launched herself toward Dustin at an unbelievable speed. When she got near, she threw a punch at Dustin with all her m

    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

    Poseidon hovered in the air with his trident in one hand and radiated a commanding presence. He stood like a god, and his figure was so intimidating that it struck fear into those who beheld him.With a wave of his hand, an invisible energy struck Warrick and expelled the three silver needles from his body. Feeling sensation returned to his limbs, Warrick's face lit up. He quickly rose to his feet and clenched his fist to his chest in salute."Thank you, Lord Poseidon, for saving me. I will never forget this kindness!" he said."No need for formalities, Sir Prescott. Now that you've pledged yourself to the Hall of Gods, it's only natural that I ensure your safety," Poseidon replied with a faint smile as he descended gracefully."Your timely arrival was a blessing," Warrick said as he bowed his head slightly in deference. "Otherwise, we would have perished tonight."The Hall of Gods' royal gods were figures he could only look up to. Everything about Poseidon, from his power to hi

    Mulder knew Warrick had been on the battlefield for years, and his physical strength was unmatched. On top of that, he was already halfway to becoming an ultimate grandmaster. Even if Warrick couldn't defeat the prodigious Logan, Mulder figured the difference wouldn't be too big. But he never expected Logan to take down Warrick with a single finger, leaving him severely injured and unable to stand. The difference in their strength was far beyond anything Mulder could have imagined.In other words, Logan had been toying with them from the start and didn't take the fight seriously. If he had, they would've all been dead.Warrick clutched his chest and coughed up blood as he staggered to his feet. His chest was a charred ruin, the flesh torn open and slick with blood. It was an awful, gory mess."I didn't expect you to be this strong. I underestimated you," he growled.He slowly raised his head, and his face twisted with a menacing look. "Guess I was just unlucky to fall into your

    "Oh? You guessed it?" Dustin smirked. "Now that you know who I am, it's up to you to decide what to do."If Warrick chose to surrender, Dustin would simply seal his pressure points and leave him to Austin's judgment. But if he resisted, Dustin wouldn't hesitate to cripple him."Haven't you given up your title as the prince? Why did you return? Are you going to compete with Austin for the throne?" Warrick asked.Uncertainty flickered across his face before he continued, "If that's your intention, I can help you. Spare me today, and I guarantee you'll become the next Prince of West Lucozia."Power was a tempting beast. History was filled with stories of brothers turning against each other and fathers murdering their sons for it.In Warrick's mind, Logan's quiet return to West Lucozia meant one thing—he was after the throne."Guarantee?" Dustin scoffed. "What guarantee are you offering?" His voice was dripping with disdain. "You're a cornered rat now. You're barely holding on to you

    "Warrick's blade technique is terrifying," Mulder mumbled. "This should be the finishing blow, right?"Watching from a distance, he was awestruck by the dazzling blade aura. Only now did he truly grasp the sheer gulf between Warrick and Dustin.Warrick's strike descended with such overwhelming force that it seemed to split the earth and obliterate everything in its path. Even from 300 feet away, the pressure rolling off it sent a chill down Mulder's spine.Under Mulder's stunned gaze, Warrick brought his full weight down, with blade and body merging into a single force that swallowed Dustin whole.The instant they clashed, an incandescent explosion of light erupted. It was so blinding that Mulder couldn't even open his eyes.A split second later, a deafening blast erupted, and a shockwave shot outward like a tidal surge. The force flattened the waves and overturned several fishing boats docked at the pier.Even Mulder, more than 300 feet away, was caught in the blast and tumbled

    "So what if I am? And what if I push even further?" Dustin's smile slowly faded. "If you don't like it, do something about it."There was no reasoning with tyrants like Warrick."Punk, are you really willing to risk your life against me? Have you ever considered what happens if you lose?" Warrick's face turned grim as a wave of killing intent spread from him.He had already taken a step back to avoid unnecessary trouble. If Dustin refused to back down, there was no choice but to fight."Cut the crap. You wanna fight, fight." Dustin didn't bother with more words. With a flick of his wrist, a silver needle shot out and aimed toward Warrick's forehead—silent, unassuming, but deadly."Hmm?" Warrick's brow furrowed as he instinctively raised his arm. Sparks flew as the needle deflected off his arm and buried into the ground."Oh? You've mastered the Adamantine Body Technique?" Dustin narrowed his eyes. At that instant, he saw through Warrick's technique. Not only was he halfway

    Mulder's body trembled, and he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood. His energy drained, and his entire being seemed to collapse.Dustin's finger flick had not only shattered his sword but also injured his internal organs. With the effects of the enhanced serum wearing off, Mulder was now back to his original state and completely spent.His once-powerful frame now shrank like a punctured balloon. He looked as if he had aged ten years in an instant. Mulder could no longer fight. Even standing up was a challenge."He's finished," Dustin said coolly, then looked at Warrick. "Now it's your turn.""Hmm?" Warrick frowned, and his expression turned serious.Dustin's display of strength earlier had made him feel a sense of crisis. If they fought head-on, there was no telling who would come out on top.But Warrick was just one step away from escaping West Lucozia, bound for Artea and a life of freedom and luxury. He had no intention of risking his life in battle unless he absolutely

    "This is interesting." Dustin smirked as the dense barrage of swords came slashing down at him. In the blink of an eye, his figure dissolved into a wisp of smoke and vanished.A storm of sword shadows carrying the force that could split rivers and overturn seas crashed down on the fishing boat where he had just been standing. The entire vessel broke apart in an instant—some sinking into the depths while others drifted across the water."What? He dodged it?" Warrick's eyes flickered with surprise.Mulder's attack just now had been a 360-degree attack. Once caught in its range, there was no chance to dodge—only the option to endure. He couldn't understand how Dustin had managed to avoid it. Did he just teleport?"Hiding like a coward? What kind of warrior are you? Come fight me face-to-face."Frustrated after his attack missed again, Mulder grew desperate. His enhanced serum would only last for 15 minutes. If this dragged on, he'd collapse from exhaustion before Dustin even touche
