An Understated Dominance Chapter 580
"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

"Ahhh!" Maggie, who had her kneecaps fractured, let out an ear-piercing scream. She fell flat on the ground and rolled around in pain."What?" Everyone was shocked by what they saw. None of them had expected Dustin to hurt Maggie, even after she revealed her identity. He truly showed her no mercy. But she was the daughter of the great Doyle family! No matter where she went, people always tried their best to please her, and nobody dared cross her. It was beyond everyone's comprehension that Dustin would actually break her kneecaps! It was insane!"Are you out of your flipping mind, Dustin? Do you know what you've done?" After the initial shock wore off, Julie leaped to her feet, her face white as a sheet."You! How dare you hurt Miss Doyle? You're done for! All of you!" "That's right! The Doyles aren't ever going to let you go! This is no longer about the money!" Maggie's friends clamored in fury. As scions of wealthy families, they were all used to bullying others; never the other w

After leaving Dash Corporation, Dustin and Natasha headed to the mall, where they picked out gifts for every member of the Ballard family. From the eldest to the youngest toddlers, no one was left out. Later, they stopped by an antique shop and chose a beautiful calligraphy painting as a special gift for Simon.By evening, Dustin had everything ready for his first visit to the Ballard estate, located in the heart of Oakvale's city center. The estate was a sprawling courtyard mansion built on a large plot of land.Simon, the Duke of Lachshire, had three sons and a daughter. His eldest son, Jonathan Ballard, was a third-ranked official in the government. The second son, Jensen Ballard, was a successful entrepreneur in the pharmaceutical industry in Oakvale, with billions in assets.

While Dustin was away, Natasha couldn't help but worry about him. She would always keep an eye out for any news about him. But no matter how much she missed him, she wouldn't call him. She didn't want to distract or cause him to lose focus on the important matters concerning the nation's affairs. Understanding how busy he was, she kept her feelings in check and buried herself in work to keep her mind occupied.But when Natasha finally saw Dustin again, all the emotions she had bottled up came rushing out. Months of longing turned into overwhelming affection, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.Her assistant, Tanya, watched in shock. She had no idea Natasha—typically the poised, decisive, and commanding chairwoman—was in a relationship. What surprised her even more was how different Natasha seemed around Dustin. The usually unshakable "queen" now appeared soft and tender in his presence.Tanya couldn't help but watch Dustin more closely. His looks and charisma were u

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

Chapter 2431
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
