An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1268

Aclamor broke out in the meeting room. All the guildmasters were excited to hear that. It would be a lie to say that they weren'tenvious of Cornelius for receiving the Gerandium. After all, it wasn’t every day that they came by such a rare and precious pill.

But Dustin’s promise turned their envy into surprise. So it turns out that all of them had a part in it! No one would be left behind.Dustin’s fairness gained him the respect and admiration of everyone present.

“Thank you, Sir Rhys!”“From now on, we will do our best to serve you!”All the guildmasters bowed to Dustin respectfully.

“We're all brothers. There’s no need to be so polite.” Dustin then gestured for everyone to straighten up. “There isn’t much | canoffer.

“But if there’s one thing | can promise you, it’s that in the future, we will always have each others’ back. We'll share each others’joys, and help each other through tough times!”

Dustin’s simple declaration lifted everyone’s spirits. They felt that it was their honor to have such a talented, capable, andunderstanding leader. They were sure that under Dustin's leadership, the Kirin Gang would have a bright future ahead!

“Sir Rhys, Ms. Harmon has come round. Just then, a female disciple of the Kirin Gang entered the meeting room.

“She's awake?”

Dustin was shocked to hear that. He immediately got up and headed out.

“Sir Rhys, Ms. Harmon is no longer in her room. She went to the House of Heroes just a while ago,” the female disciple added.“So, she knows?” Dustin’s expression became grave.

“| guess so.” She nodded. “Alright, you may all be dismissed. There’s no need to keep an eye on her anymore.”novelbin

Dustin took a deep breath before he headed to the House of Heroes. Hector’s body was placed there. Dustin wasn’t sure ifNatasha could take it when she saw Hector’s body.

When Dustin walked into the House of Heroes, he found Natasha kneeling beside the coffin silently. She was so still that shelooked like she was frozen. She wasn’t crying or wailing. The House of Heroes was deathly silent.

“Natasha?” Dustin’s expression became grave as he rushed up to Natasha. Her face was tear-streaked, her expression blank,and her eyes dull. She looked like she had lost all the life within her.

“What's wrong, Natasha?”

Dustin was flustered when he saw how odd she was behaving. He would have understood if Natasha had been weeping. Butseeing how bewildered and disoriented she was told him that something was wrong.

“Don’t scare me, Natasha! Look at me!”

Dustin crouched down in front of Natasha and held her face in his hands as he called her name repeatedly.

“D-Dustin?” After quite some time, Natasha seemed to snap back to the present. Her eyes gradually focused on Dustin. Whenshe saw who it was, something seemed to snap within her. She suddenly broke down in tears.

She buried herself into Dustin's embrace and began crying loudly. Tears rained down uncontrollably. All her pent-up emotionswere finally released.

“Go on, let it all out ... You'll feel better after crying.”

Dustin held her tightly as he patted her lightly on the back. He knew that words of consolation were just empty words to her atthis point.

Nobody could share her pain of losing her father. The only thing he could do for her now was to be by her side. Natasha had toget through the pain in her heart by herself.
