An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1732

The Regal Court wasn’t brimming with activity as it usually was. It seemed pretty deserted. It was even more so on the second floor since the entire floor was reserved. Outsiders weren’t allowed to enter.

After Dustin disclosed his identity, he led Cinna and Maximus upstairs. Meanwhile, only a man was seated in the VIP lounge on the second floor.

He was dressed in all black, and everything about him was plain. His looks and physique were extremely ordinary, even more so for his demeanor.

There was nothing unique about him. No one would pay any attention to him if he stood in a crowd.

“Your Highness!”

The moment he saw Dustin, he immediately knelt with one knee on the ground and lowered his head.

“Who are you?” Dustin asked airily.

“I’m Rodrigo, the prince’s personal guard. When he found out that you were in trouble, he sent me over to assist you,” Rodrigo stated with his head hung low. 1

“His personal guard?”

Dustin’s gaze swept across the man and questioned him again, “How are you going to prove your identity?”

He wasn’t an amateur. He knew it was important to make things clear in the first place. There was no way that he would believe whatever the man said.

“This is the emblem the prince gave me. Please have a look, Your Highness.”

Rodrigo whisked out an emblem from his pocket and handed it over to Dustin with both hands.

When Dustin laid eyes on the emblem, he finally let his guard down. It was indeed an emblem of the West Lucozian monarchy. Only the extremely trustworthy guards deserved to own this emblem.

This was more than enough to prove Rodrigo’s identity.

“General Rodrigo, since you’re one of us, there’s no need to be this formal. Please get up.”

While Dustin handed the emblem back to him, he got down and helped him up. Utterly dumbfounded, Rodrigo said, ” Thank you, Your Highness.”

“General Rodrigo, let me introduce you to the Vice Commander of the Central Cavalry, General. Cinna Shaffer,” Dustin said as he gestured toward Cinna.

“General Shaffer, I’ve heard of you. It’s truly an honor to meet you,” Rodrigo greeted politely.
