An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

As dusk fell, Dustin stood before the alchemy furnace in the tavern’s kitchen. With mystical pure energy, he meticulously controlled the fire’s temperature.

Grace worked efficiently and gathered all the precious herbs within just an hour. She even arranged for a top- quality alchemy furnace to be delivered.

Following ancient methods, he began crafting the tablet to dispel Alicia’s witchcraft.

Witchcraft was similar to parasitic poison, but it was even more mysterious and unpredictable.

Fortunately, Dustin had considerable knowledge of witchcraft and an extensive understanding of secret techniques. So, concocting the antidote presented no challenge for him.

Suddenly, Grace entered the kitchen and said solemnly, “We have a crisis. I’ve received word that Alicia’s condition has suddenly worsened, and she’s on the brink of death. We must leave now.”

“Her condition has worsened? How did this happen?” He frowned and continued, “I’d already contained the voodoo in Alicia’s body with the ethereal resurgence technique.

“As long as they didn’t remove the needles, a couple more days would’ve been fine. How come her condition deteriorated in just a few hours?”

Grace quickly explained, “Someone took matters into their own hands and brought in Kenan Quake, a skilled doctor from the martial world.

“Without knowing the whole situation, he removed the silver needles and caused Alicia’s condition to worsen.

“He tried everything, but nothing worked. That’s why Aurora called me just now and urged us to rush over and save Alicia.”
