An Understated Dominance Chapter 1879 by Marina Vittori

“The target is in sight. Get ready!” Austin was on high alert when he saw the group of Dragon Guard members. He even withdrew his sword a little from its scabbard.

“Calm down. Give them another minute. We have to wait till they get into the area surrounded by us.” Dustin reached out and patted Austin’s shoulders lightly.

He had cast two spells a few hundred yards before their hiding spot. As soon as the group of Dragon Guard members walked into the area, they’d be trapped.

The first spell was the Disorientation Spell, and it covered the widest area. This spell had a dumbfounding and dizzying effect.

The second spell was the Octennial Array. This spell had two sides to it. The first side could be used to attack the opponent, whereas the flip side could defend. It could attack and defend simultaneously, making it a very adaptable spell.

Dustin had chosen to use this spell to attack. He had arranged for eight very skilled fighters to be situated in every direction of this octagonal formation.

Under this spell, these eight fighters would become infinite illusory images. The shadows would attack anyone who came into the area of this spell.

If they couldn’t find the source of the spell and break it, they’d be trapped inside it. They’d be attacked continuously until one of them died.

In addition to these two spells, Dustin had ordered his subordinates to bury a huge amount of explosives in a nearby area.

Even if the Dragon Guard members could break his spells, they wouldn’t be able to protect themselves from an explosion. With this setup, the Dragon Guard members would have suffered a huge loss before fighting them head-on.

“They have already entered the spell area. Activate the spell now!” Dustin quickly gave out an order when the time was right.

“Activate the spell!” Austin shouted, and the monarchy’s elite fighters started getting into positions.

When the Disorientation Spell was activated, white fog rapidly rose from the ground. The white fog had already enveloped a few hundred yards of radial area within minutes, and it continued to expand rapidly.

“What’s this? Why is it suddenly foggy?

“Fog is a very common phenomenon in the mountainous areas, especially in the morning. There’s nothing to be scared of.”

“No! This fog is weird. Everyone, stay alert!” The Dragon Guard members suddenly became very alert when the fog appeared out of nowhere.

All of them withdrew their weapons and looked around warily. They were on guard against any potential ambush.

However, everything remained still after a while. The only difference was that the fog was getting thicker by the second.

“Guys, do you feel dizzy and tired?” A man in gray clothes asked suddenly.

“Me too! I don’t feel too well.” Another man in black replied.

“Stop talking! This fog is poisonous. We have to get out of here!” The leader, a red-robed elder, shouted and immediately led everyone back to their starting point.

Even though he had no idea what was going on, it was obvious that this white fog was not a natural phenomenon. It was man-made.

The Dragon Guard members moved quickly and ran in the opposite direction for around 15 minutes.

However, they were unable to leave the foggy area. Instead, they were even more tired than before as they inhaled more of the fog while running. They decided to move further away, but the results were the same.

“What’s happening? We have been running around for so long, and why are we still trapped in the fog?”

“Look around, guys. Don’t you think it looks familiar?”

“Not only that! We’ve been running around in the same spot!” They finally realized that something was wrong at that moment.

It didn’t matter how far they ran. Their surroundings remained foggy, and they couldn’t see the sun or the sky. They couldn’t even tell where they were.

One of them made a special mark on the tree as they were running back to their starting point. However, they made it back to the special mark on the tree once again!

Summary An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

Dahlia Nicholson and Dustin Rhys had been married for three years. After Dahlia’s meteoric rise to success, she abandons the useless dead weight that’s Dustin, proposing divorce. Unbeknownst to her, everything she had ever achieved was only because of him.

Chapter 1 “Dustin, here is the divorce agreement prepared by Ms. Nicholson. All you need to do is sign them.” In the president’s office of the Quine Group, the secretary, Lyra Blaine, placed a piece of A4 paper on the table. A man sat opposite her, dressed in plain clothing. “Divorce? What do you mean?” Dustin Rhys was taken aback. “Do you not understand what I’m saying? Your marriage with Ms. Nicholson is over. You’re not even on the same level anymore. Your existence is nothing but a smear on the president’s reputation!” Lyra pulled no punches as she spoke. “A smear on her reputation?” Dustin frowned. “Is that how she thinks of me?” Back when they first got married, the Nicholson family was in ruinous debt. He was the one who helped them when they were at their lowest point. Now that they were rich, Dahlia Nicholson was ready to just kick him out. “Something like that.” Lyra jerked her chin toward the magazine on the table. A photo of a beautiful woman was printed on the front page. “Look at the headline on this magazine, Dustin. Ms. Nicholson’s net worth has hit one billion in the course of just three years, a feat no short of a miracle. She’s now the most desired woman in Swinton! With all this, she’s destined for greatness. But you, you’re just a regular joe. You don’t deserve her at all. I hope that you’ll see some sense and do the right thing.” When Dustin remained silent, Lyra frowned. “I know you’re not happy with this, but this is reality,” she continued. “You might have helped Ms. Nicholson when she was in trouble, but she has repaid you for everything you’ve done for her over the last three years. In fact, you’re the one who owes her now!” “Is our marriage just a business deal to her, then?” Dustin took a deep breath to suppress the emotions within. “If she wants to divorce me, let her speak to me herself.” “Ms. Nicholson is very busy. She doesn’t need to trouble herself with such trifling matters.” “Trifling matters?” Dustin was stunned. Then he laughed bitterly. “Is that so? Is divorce a trifling matter to her? She can’t even find the time to speak to me. Truly, she’s that unattainable now!” “Dustin, don’t delay this any longer.” Lyra pushed the divorce agreement toward him again. “Just sign here and you’ll get a car and a house as compensation. On top of that, you’ll also get eight million dollars. This is more than what you’ll be able to earn in your lifetime!” “Eight million dollars is a lot, but…I don’t need it. I will sign the divorce papers if she comes personally. Otherwise, I won’t sign anything,” Duston said coldly. “Don’t go too far, Dustin!” Lyra slammed her hand on the table. “Don’t say I didn’t warn you. With all her power and resources, Ms. Nicholson can divorce you easily. It’s only because she appreciates her past relationship with you that she’s allowing you to keep your dignity intact. Don’t provoke her!” “My dignity?” Dustin was a little amused by that. She didn’t even want to speak to him directly to divorce him. What kind of dignity was that? Moreover, if she really did appreciate their relationship, then why was she threatening him now?
