Mrs. Prewitt reminded him.

"Jo?"

After Vernon took a closer look, his eyes widened instantly.

"W-What happened to you?"

"It was him … That bastard did this to me!" With a trembling hand, Mrs. Lansky pointed at Dustin.

Vernon's gaze followed the direction his wife was pointing at.

"It was you?" His expression turned dark.

"You hit my wife?" he roared.

"Yes, it was me." Dustin nodded and admitted to it plainly.

"This bitch was being unreasonable. I was only teaching her a lesson."

"You've got nerves! How dare you teach my wife a lesson?" Vernon had a dark and hostile look to him.

"Why don't you tell me how you plan on dealing with this matter?"

Everyone had to show him respect in this area. If Dustin dared hit his wife, he had to either have a powerful background or be a naive hothead.

Before being sure of his identity, Vernon had left some room for negotiation.

"If this bitch apologizes to us, I'll let today's incident slide," Dustin said impassively.

"What? A

    "Huh?" Mrs. Prewitt was in a daze, cradling her cheek and feeling utterly bewildered.Why did Vernon hit her when she was helping him? What on earth was happening?"What are you still standing there for? Apologize!" Vernon landed another slap across her face. He didn't dare provoke influential figures. However, he could easily control an insignificant headmistress. "I-I'm sorry … " Mrs. Prewitt was aggrieved as she gritted out the words. Although she wasn't sure what was going on, it was clear that this bitch was someone important. Otherwise, Inspector Lansky wouldn't have reacted that way. "Ms. Harmon, I apologize for not noticing you earlier." After punishing Mrs. Prewitt, Vernon was full of smiles. "May I know what brings you here, Ms. Harmon?""This is my man, and this is my goddaughter." Natasha didn't hold back her words. "Your wife assaulted my goddaughter earlier. "My man then assaulted your wife in retaliation to protect her. This is considered self-defense,

    Over in a high-end restaurant, several well-dressed young people gathered together. They chatted as they sipped on some wine."Dahlia, I really envy you for being favored by Sir Mosey. Congratulations on becoming his goddaughter!"A young lady dressed in red smiled brightly at Dahlia, appearing very enthusiastic.She was Elena Forrest, the eldest daughter of the Forrest family. The Forrest family was one of Oakvale's eight great families."I heard that Sir Mosey has been in a war for many years and has no kids. You must be extremely talented and kind for him to take you as his goddaughter," a vain-looking man said with a smile. The man was Sean Hoovey, Elena's boyfriend. He was a smooth talker who charmed his way through life."Dahlia, why don't you tell us how you got to know him?" Elena could not contain her curiosity. Sir Mosey generally avoided crowds and was a very reserved person. He was rarely ever seen around large groups of people. Hence, it was shocking to hear tha

    Half an hour later, as Elena was still chatting with Dahlia, she received a call.Upon answering it, she heard Sean's sobbing."Elena … I've been beaten up. Quick, get some men here to back me up. The bastard is wild!""What? Even you were beaten up?" Elena frowned. "What happened? Didn't I send two bodyguards with you?"All her guards were carefully picked. No regular thugs would be able to mess with them.“They weren't much help at all! They were beaten up within seconds! Even I was implicated!" Sean sounded indignant."Didn't you make use of the Forrest family name?" Elena asked."Of course I did! But that only got the rascal beating us up even worse!" Sean cried out amidst sobs."What? He carried on even after knowing you were related to the Forrest family?"Elena was infuriated. "How dare a mere thug behave so arrogantly? Stay there! I'll be there in a bit!""Okay. Hurry! I'll try my best to hold him back," Sean said."Ms. Forrest, sounds like you're in a bit of trouble. Do you ne

    The bodyguards pushed their way violently through the crowd, forcefully clearing a path.When they were finally done clearing a wide and clear path, Elena showed up looking like a princess.She was gorgeous, and the clothes she wore were expensive. Matched with her elegant bearing, it was clear that she was no ordinary person."Elena! You're finally here!"Sean's eyes instantly lit up when he saw her. He quickly went up to her and began groaning, "Look! Look at my face!"See what they've done to me! You must make them pay for this!"Elena reached out and held Sean's chin, turning his face this way and that. Her expression swiftly darkened. "Who was it? Who did this to you?"She had three criteria for her men. First, they must be handsome. Second, they had to be good in bed. And finally, they must be able to please her.Now that Sean's handsome face had been destroyed, it was almost like her personal property had been destroyed. She wouldn't take it sitting down."It was him!

    "How dare you!""You arrogant bastard!"Sean and the rest of them were riled up by Dustin's words. He really had a death wish for being so rude to Ms. Forrest!"You … You asked me to get lost?"Elena had to take a moment to let Dustin's words sink in. After a while, she shouted in frustration, "You low-life peasant! You impudent asshole!"I'll teach you a good lesson today! Guards! Take him down!""Yes, Ms. Forrest!" The guards did not hesitate. They pulled out their moves to take Dustin down.As they collided, a few punching sounds were heard. Then, the men went flying. The guards who had rushed up to attack Dustin fell heavily to the ground, passing out on the spot.Everyone was shocked by what they saw.Everything had happened so fast that they could not even grasp what had happened.Elena had ordered her guards, and they went up to Dustin. But then, they ended up out cold on the ground. It took less than three seconds for all that to play out.They hadn't even wrappe

    Dustin looked extremely pissed. He rarely treated women harshly. But since Elena was being a bitch, things were different.The crowd gasped when they saw Elena being slapped.Was this guy crazy? It was one thing to beat up the Forrest family guards. But he went and slapped Ms. Forrest, too?She was the eldest daughter of an esteemed family! How could he have slapped her? Did he not fear death?"How dare you slap me?" Elena roared as she cupped her stinging cheek. She stared at Dustin in disbelief.Nobody had ever dared lay a finger on her since she was born, much less slap her! It was humiliating!"Hey! Why do you lot keep repeating the same thing? Don't you have anything else to say?" Dustin had had it with them."I—I'll make you pay!" Elena shrieked before launching herself at Dustin."Elena! Calm down! Calm down!"Sean was startled. He immediately went forward and pulled Elena back. She was putting herself in danger by attacking Dustin!"That's enough!" A pretty woman

    "What are you two whispering about?" Dahlia was confused by the woman in front of her. Why was she sighing and then giggling? Was she out of her mind?"Nothing, nothing. Perhaps I've mistaken you for someone else. I'm sorry."Natasha pursed her lips after she apologized.Well, Dahlia had lost her memories after all. Natasha couldn't be so petty as to make things difficult for someone who'd lost her memories, could she?"You're weird." Dahlia frowned. Though she did not know Natasha, she had an unpleasant feeling about her.She looked past Natasha and at Dustin. "Hang on … You look quite familiar. Have I seen you somewhere?""Hmm?" Natasha was immediately on guard when she heard that.Didn't Dustin say that she'd lost her memories? Could she have remembered him? Was she deceiving them?"You remember me?" Dustin was surprised."Oh, I remember now. You were the insurance agent." Dahlia immediately recalled where she had met him after giving it some thought. This man had gon

    Dahlia was trying to mediate between them. All Dustin had to do was take the opportunity to apologize and make amends. He would be able to walk away with his life.Why was he so stubborn? Was his pride more important than his life? What was he thinking?"You made things very clear, and I understand what you're trying to say. But there's one thing that you all are mistaken about."I do not fear the Forrests. The Forrests are the ones that should be afraid of me," Dustin said impassively.The onlookers laughed when they heard what Dustin said."The Forrests should be afraid of you? Hahaha! Young man, are you out of your mind? Do you even know what you're saying?""You're just an insurance agent! How dare you act arrogantly? You think too highly of yourself!""How foolish and ignorant! It seems he still isn't aware of who he's offended and where he stands."The onlookers shook their heads as they criticized Dustin, looking at him like he was an idiot."What a stubborn idiot."

    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

    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
