An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

“You’ve done so much for me. How could I ever forget your kindness?” Grace smiled and asked, “By the way, with the Hall of Gods going all out to recruit you, they must have some tasks lined up for you, right? They don’t invest like that without expecting a return.”

“You’re right.” Dustin nodded. He said candidly, “They want me on their side partly because of my potential but also because they need my help with their plan to invade Sacred Wyrm Summit.”

“As expected, they’re as ambitious as ever.” She narrowed her eyes and asked, “Did they tell you any specific details of the plan?”

“No.” He shook his head. “Mr. Styles said that aside from the God King, no one knows the details, not even him. Everyone just follows orders.”

“That definitely fits their style.” Grace nodded.

She wasn’t surprised since the Hall of Gods was always extremely cautious regarding major operations. Even those at the god level, who had served for many years, weren’t privy to the entire plan.

Their level of confidentiality made it difficult for Dragonmarsh’s insiders within the Hall of Gods to gather valuable intelligence.

“Now it’s just a waiting game. But you need to be ready. I’ll let you know when I get any news,” Dustin said.

“Great. I’ll be waiting for your update.” Grace nodded.
