An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1752

Dustin raised an eyebrow as he took in the information on the tombstone. He was surprised that the name etched on it belonged to Leo Ashen, the former Vice General of the renowned Black Dragon Army’s vanguard.

The vanguard army was composed of elite soldiers that were chosen with meticulous care. Attaining the rank of vice commander required an exceptional level of prowess.

In Dustin’s recollection, Leo was renowned for his inherent strength and ferocity on the battlefield. He had a distinguished career, and had made significant contributions to Rufus’ efforts to stabilize West Lucozia.

Leo’s sacrifice resulted in a posthumous promotion, securing the position of vanguard army General-in- Chief. The grandeur of his funeral underscored his importance.

Leo’s descendants had enjoyed privileges and benefits. Hence, it was perplexing to witness the family in such dire straits. This raised the question of what had transpired.

Dustin was intrigued. He approached slowly, eager to unravel more about the situation.

“Who’s there?”

Sensing movement, the young man at the grave turned with a wary expression.

Dustin was quick to diffuse the tension, He assured the man, “Don’t be nervous. We’re here to pay respects to our loved ones like you.”

“Pay respects?”

The young man relaxed slightly but maintained a cautious demeanor.

Dustin explained, “We heard some commotion and came to check.”

“Apologies for the emotional outburst earlier. I appreciate your understanding,” the young man said, extending an apology.
