An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 552

Chapter 552 

“Why are you back so soon, Son? Weren’t you warding off enemies at the borders?” Jacob quickly went up to his son joyfully once he snapped out of the initial shock of seeing Dylan. 

“Everything’s peaceful over at the borders now, so I took a few days off to come back for a bit.” Dylan chuckled. 

“Good, that’s good… It’s great to see you back! I haven’t seen you in a year! You look even more ripped now!” Jacob patted Dylan on the back delightedly. He was pleased with his son’s achievements. Out of all the members of the younger generation in the Harmons, Dylan was the most accomplished of all. 

“I’ve got good news, Dad. I’ve been promoted! I’m now a high–ranking commander in the Dark Panther Cavalry. I’ve got over a thousand men working under me!” Dylan announced proudly. 

“What? A high–ranking commander?” An excited chatter broke out among the crowd, who were all delightfully surprised to hear that. There were also some who were envious of his progress. 

As a high–ranking commander, he was just one step away from becoming a deputy general, and Dylan wasn’t even 30 years old yet! To achieve what he had now, especially at such a young age, Dylan had a bright future ahead! 

“Hahaha! Great! That’s amazing!” Jacob laughed heartily. “My son is amazing! He’s been promoted again in just a year! I’m proud of you, Son!” 

“Like father, like son!” Trent exclaimed enviously. “You’ll be as great as Tyler Grant, if not better than him in the future, Dylan!” 

“The Harmon family has produced yet another amazing talent!” Hector was pleased too. Dylan wasn’t far off from becoming a general if he was already a high–ranking commander before the age of 30. 

“Congratulations, Dylan! You’ve attained the greatest heights out of all of us! Don’t forget about me when you make it big one day!” Kate sucked up to Dylan. 

“What are you saying, Kate? We’re family! If you ever need anything, just let me know!” Dylan reassured with a pat on his chest. 

“Hahaha! You’re the best!” Kate giggled. 

“Right, Dad, you were talking about the Grants. What about them?” Dylan changed the topic. 

“Well, this is how things are right now…” Jacob briefed Dylan about everything that went on in the family. 

After Dylan heard what had happened, he laughed. “Dad, Uncle Hector, don’t you worry! With me here, Tyler won’t dare to step out of line.” 

“You may be a high–ranking commander, Dylan, but Tyler is a general. I’m afraid…” Jacob left his sentence hanging. It was true that his son was capable and brilliant, but he was still lower in power compared to Tyler. 

“Dad! Don’t forget that I’m from the Dark Panther Cavalry! Even deputy generals have to treat me with respect!” Dylan boasted conceitedly.

The Dark Panther Cavalry differed from ordinary units. They were the best of the best, and all the high–ranking commanders from the Dark Panther Cavalry were elites. If they were to be 

transferred to other units, they could easily be promoted to deputy generals. That was the prestige of the Dark Panther Cavalry. 

“Dylan, Tyler is not just a deputy general. He’s been given the title of General Lionheart, and he’s an official of the third rank!” Jacob reminded him. 

“So what if he’s a third–ranking official?” Dylan scoffed condescendingly. “My general is the Scarlet Warrior, who is well–known across the whole of Dragonmarsh! And she’s a first–ranking official!” 

“What? The Scarlet Warrior?” Everyone was astonished.
