An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

The crowd turned around and saw a young man dressed in all-black entering with a determined and solemn expression.

His very presence emitted a commanding aura that even those experienced on the battlefield, like Everett and Shane, adopted a serious demeanor. The newcomer was none other than Austin, Rufus’ youngest son.

Austin was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, living a pampered life that earned him the title of being West Lucozia’s top playboy.

However, over the past two years, Austin seemed to have undergone a remarkable transformation. He no longer spent his days in leisure, choosing instead to join the military and pursue excellence.

Surprisingly, Austin not only endured but also excelled. In just two years, he rose from a common soldier to becoming the deputy general in the Black Dragon Army. Despite his privileged upbringing, his accomplishments were undeniably impressive.

Only then did people realize that Austin wasn’t merely a pampered playboy but a true military genius with outstanding talent.
