An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1900

“Cinna, why are you standing there? Lost in thought? Come on, we need to find that treasure map!” Julius, his face contorted with frustration, unleashed it all on Cinna.

“Okay.” Cinna promptly headed straight for the big alloy door. He took out Reagan’s severed hand and placed it on the central sensing area.

The heavy alloy door opened, revealing a metallic vault of about 300 square feet.

In the center was an impressive stack of gold bricks. Surrounding it were an assortment of precious rarities that were closely packed, each worth a fortune.

“This is Reagan’s private gold vault. Anything he took a liking to ended up in here,” Cinna said.

“Wow, look at all this treasure!” Austin exclaimed, glancing around in amazement. “Imagine if we cash in on this haul, we could practically own an entire city!”

“These treasures can’t compare to the three treasuries of the Dragon Guard. The treasures here are merely a drop in the ocean,” Cinna remarked seriously.

“Really?” Austin’s surprise and delight were evident.

“Are you telling me that the treasuries of the Dragon Guard are like massive piles of wealth?”

“I haven’t witnessed it firsthand. But considering the Dragon Guard’s wealth amassed over decades, calling their treasuries mountains wouldn’t be an overstatement,” Cinna stated earnestly.

“Okay… I can’t wait to get my hands on the Dragon Guard’s treasures!” Austin was excited.

“Let’s cut to the chase. Where’s that treasure map?” Julius inquired, his impatience evident.

“It’s here.” Cinna strolled over to a shelf toward the back. He reached for a sandalwood box and handed it over to Dustin carefully.

Dustin opened it to find three parchment maps.
