An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1748

“That sounds about right.”

Dustin nodded.

“There’s been a huge change in the Astonishing World List. Alaric Drakon and Seth Hughes passed away one after another. Cesar Fent is still missing, and Nestor Wilkins was killed. We lost four of the ten best fighters from last year. It’s a huge loss. We’re lucky to have found new and strong fighters to replace them. It’s true that new talents will always replace old ones,” Grace said.

“Do you know anything about the new people who just made it to the list?” Dustin suddenly asked.

“The fifth one on the list, Reagan Judd. He is the new leader of Dragon Guard. My father told you about him before. He used to go by Reston Rever. He finally got what he wanted when Alaric Drakon died.”

“I know Reagan Judd. What I don’t understand is, he was never on the list before. How did he make it to the list after Alaric’s death and how did he make it to the top five?”

Dustin was slightly curious.

“How should I explain this? Reagan has never revealed much about himself. When Alaric was still alive, Reagan was overshadowed and no one paid much attention to him. After Alaric’s death, Reagan succeeded him as leader. He quickly took control of the remnants of Dragon Guard with an iron fist. When that happened, the Zenith Society finally realized that Reagan was no ordinary person and ranked him fifth. This was based on their conservative estimation. His true potential should be no weaker than the leaders of the three major sects,” Grace spoke in a serious tone.

“Really?”

Dustin frowned slightly. The gap between those listed on the Astonishing World List was huge. Seth Hughes still won despite taking on three of the fighters on the Astonishing World List alone. From this, the gap was obvious for all to see.

Besides, Dustin had fought against Nestor Wilkins. His and Nestor’s abilities were on par with each other. Dustin had to use the secret Rhys technique just so he could win by a little. Even Nestor who ranked tenth was very strong. He couldn’t imagine how terrifying Reagan would be, given that he ranked fifth. He wasn’t sure if he would survive the match if he really met Reagon, much less win the fight.

“He must be extraordinary to become the next-in-command of Dragon Guard.”

Grace said seriously, “Besides, there are many talents in Dragon Guard.

Although Seth might have defeated half of the force, those that remain still pose a real risk. Our trip to West Lucozia this time is very dangerous.”
