An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1859

“Could Julius be lying?” Everyone exchanged puzzled glances, unable to comprehend the situation. Even Rufus appeared surprised.

Reston Rever was considered a legendary figure in the Black Dragon Army, sharing camaraderie with Rufus in battles that defended their homeland and achieved greatness together.

However, he disappeared ten years ago during the upheaval in Oakvale.

A charred corpse with Reston’s insignia was found in the midst of the blaze. Later, a ceremonial tomb was erected in the cemetery to commemorate him.

To their surprise, the familiar name resurfaced after many years, and even more shockingly, the person was alive. What in the world was happening?

“Surprised, aren’t you?” Julius grinned.

“When I first saw Reston, I was just as shocked as you are now. I never expected a person declared dead for ten years to stand before me alive.

“Curiosity got the better of me, so I had a good chat with him. Do you want to know what I found out?”

After scanning the crowd, Julius continued, building suspense, “The Reston from ten years ago is no more. He goes by Reagan Judd and is now the new guildmaster of the Dragon Guard.”

“What? Reston is the Dragon Guard’s guildmaster?” The revelation left the onlookers in renewed shock.

Although there was no clear evidence during the upheaval in Oakvale back then, many clues pointed to the mysterious organization known as the Dragon Guard hidden behind the royal family.

Due to their immense size and influence, even the then-mighty Prince of West Lucozia dared not openly engage in war. He had chosen to endure in silence instead.

No one could have imagined that the former Grand General of the Black Dragon Army would become the Dragon Guard’s guildmaster. This shift in identity was truly astonishing.
