An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

Chapter 2583

After a night of chaos, some of the Red Legion’s members were killed, others were captured, and the entire force had been wiped out.

But the fallout didn’t stop there. The Prescott estate was also raided. All embezzled wealth was confiscated, and those found guilty were thrown into prison.

Anyone connected to the Prescotts was placed under house arrest and subjected to rigorous investigation.

And the man behind it-Warrick-had become the kingdom’s most wanted fugitive.

Until he was captured, Celestria remained under lockdown. Major roads were sealed off, and patrol teams scoured every corner to ensure Warrick had no way out.

Austin’s crackdown sparked outrage among senior officials who didn’t know the full story. They voiced their dissatisfaction, with some even gathering outside the castle gates in protest. They stomped their feet in outrage, just short of openly cursing him.

To them, Warrick had made great contributions to the nation. Even if he had committed crimes, he didn’t deserve to be executed.

The entire situation had spiraled into chaos, with raids and a city-wide manhunt causing a storm throughout the city.

“This is ridiculous. Locking down the city at the drop of a hat wastes resources and manpower. What will outsiders think of us? “one of the elders shouted.

“He’s right! Even if Mr. Prescott is guilty, he should stand trial. But why use vigilante justice? This is a farce!”

“I always knew that brat lacked integrity, but I never expected him to be this unruly and vicious. He’d wipe out entire families over the slightest offense. If West Lucozia ever falls into his hands, we’re doomed.”
