An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

"Dustin, we don't know how many people there are in this assassin organization. Isn't this too risky?" Quincy appeared hesitant.

Before laying the ambush, he thought there was just one assassin. Now, however, he realized there was a whole group.

Handling a lone assassin was manageable since they could kill him with their numbers. But facing a group of assassins was an entirely different scenario.

After all, these assassins were extremely strong, well beyond the caliber of ordinary martial artists. Moreover, as a temporary team, they had a significant skill gap.

Engaging in direct combat might not tip the scales in their favor. Even if they emerged victorious, the casualties would likely be significant.

So, Quincy wasn't sure whether to engage in a life-or-death struggle with this group of desperados.

"Elder Douglas, tonight is our best chance to uproot this assassin organization. If we miss it, it'll be hard to catch them next time," Dustin said solemnly.

The assassins' strength lay in their ability to strike from the shadows. He knew they wouldn't have the advantage if they engaged them openly.

On the contrary, if they played hide and seek with them, they would likely be defeated individually.

"I understand the logic, but I don't think we can win with our current strength." Quincy frowned.

"If you're not confident, then please call for reinforcements. It'd be best to bring in elites from Sacred Wrym Summit," Dustin suggested.

"But going now might not be feasible." Quincy sighed.

The small town they were in was at least a half-hour to and from Sacred Wrym Summit. It might be too late when they brought the elites over.

"Elder Douglas, go ahead and call for backup. I'll do my best to buy us some time," Dustin assured.

"What about them?" Quincy glanced around. "I've called them here and am responsible for their safety, too."
