An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

“Royal gods? And two of them?” Dustin frowned at the news.

His battle with Poseidon in West Lucozia had shown him firsthand that the Hall of Gods didn’t send weaklings into the field.

One royal god had already pushed him to his limit. If two came at him together, winning wasn’t even the question. He’d be lucky just to make it out alive.

“That’s right,” Grace said solemnly. “The royal gods, Zeus and Hera, have crossed the border. They’re even stronger than Poseidon. If they ambush you together, your chances are slim.”

She knew Dustin was strong, but he was still young.

Moreover, Zeus and Hera weren’t just anyone. They were world-class powerhouses. Surviving a fight with them would be next to impossible.

The Hall of Gods had probably figured out how dangerous Dustin could become. If they had given him a few more years to grow, they might not have been able to stop him.

“Well, that complicates things.” Dustin rested his chin in one hand with a thoughtful expression.
