Dahlia Nicholson and Dustin Rhys Novel novel Chapter 769

Chapter 769 

“What, do I not look good?” Scarlet looked down at her outfit, looking slightly distressed. 

“Not really, it just seems awkward. I prefer the way you usually dress,” Dustin replied bluntly. 

Scarlet was a fearless female general, and her heroic spirit was her most attractive aspect. She looked beautiful and brave in her general outfit, exuding irresistible charm. 

She looked just as gorgeous in a dress. However, it didn’t suit her. 

“Huh?” Scarlet’s questioning gaze landed on Georgia upon hearing him. 

“I’m going to get some drinks!” Georgia was scared. She escaped as soon as she could. 

“Logan, can you wait a while? I’m going to change.” Scarlet rushed back to her room without another thought. 

Soon after, she came out dressed in a red martial arts outfit. Dustin’s eyes lit up immediately. 

“Not bad, this outfit looks so much better.” He nodded in satisfaction. 

Scarlet smiled sweetly, feeling warm inside. As expected, Dustin liked her true self better. 

“Kid, I heard the situation up north is unstable. Won’t coming all the way here affect the situation there?” Dustin suddenly asked, 

Scarlet was the Goddess of War. She protected the northern gates. Thus, her presence was immensely important. 

“Oh, don’t worry about it. They’re like a bunch of ants. Giving them a few days‘ advantage won’t 

make much of a difference.” Scarlet was unconcerned. 

“I’m just worried. There might be rebels within Dragonmarsh who are unhappy with you,” Dustin 

warned. 

Scarlet was in charge of 300 thousand military personnel under the Dark Panther Calvary. They were a powerful force capable of turning the tides of the battlefield. 

Under normal circumstances, someone would always try to act individually without a leader. 

“Don’t worry, Logan. Nobody dares dictate my actions. I will also destroy anyone who dares to betray me,” Scarlet replied impassively. 

She had earned her position as the leader of the Dark Panther Calvary and Dragonmarsh’s Goddess of War based on her pure talent and skills. It wasn’t because of her family background at all. 

She also earned her military merit through countless battles. A trail of bloodshed followed her on the battlefield. It was built upon the number of bodies she had slain. 

Anyone who wasn’t happy with her would be killed mercilessly. 

“It’s been ten years. Seems like you can take everything head–on now. You won’t need my protection anymore.” Dustin smiled in relief. 

“Logan, I’ll protect you from now on.” 

She added seriously, “I’ll beat up anyone who bullies you. I’ll also beat up anyone you want to bully.

Dustin chuckled. This kid hadn’t changed one bit. 

She was stubborn and unyielding yet fiercely protective of the people around her. Adam was the only exception to that rule. 

“Alright, let’s not talk about that anymore. I’ll take you around town since you finally have time to rest.” Dustin changed the subject. 

He added, “Buy anything you like. Don’t be shy.” 

“Yay! Thanks, Logan!” Scarlet jumped for joy like a little girl. 

Her reaction left her deputy generals dumbfounded. Who would have imagined that the strict and fearless Scarlet had that side to her? 

“Kid, I don’t go by Logan anymore. Next time in public, call me Dustin,” he reminded her. 

“Okay, Dustin,” Scarlet adjusted immediately. What she cared about wasn’t his name but the person behind the name. 

He used to protect her from the world and helped her through hardships, even if it meant risking his life. 

He protected her in the past. Now, it was her turn to protect him.
