But with Lord Barbenheim’s status, they could not stop him even if they wanted to. Still, when they thought about how they had fawned all over him just moments ago, they felt like fools. “Tell me. Who is in possession of the treasure? Or rather, where is it hidden?” Lord Barbenheim got up and smiled. Of course, he would look for his missing son, but the Wyatt family’s treasure was more important to him than Alvin. “I intend to get that treasure today, even if it means flattening this place to the ground and spilling all of your blood.” The Wyatt sisters panicked. “Your Highness, you’re the guardian of Grayvale! If word of this gets out, it’ll be a huge blow to your reputation!” Amara said tentatively. Lord Barbenheim just smiled. “If I flatten this place to the ground, make sure there are no survivors and leave no witnesses so that no one can talk about it,” he instructed his soldiers. The Wyatt sisters’ faces turned sour. Lord Barbenheim had the final say in Grayvale
“Looks like this is really Lucas Wyatt’s ashes.” Lord Barbenheim smiled when he saw their reactions. Then, he flicked his arm. The urn left his grasp and fell to the floor. The Wyatt sisters panicked. Dustin’s face froze, and he moved in a flash. He was determined to reach the urn as fast as possible to prevent the ashes from spilling onto the floor. With his speed, even though he was over thirty feet away, he could have made it in time. But just as he neared Lord Barbenheim, he heard a loud bang and saw a knife flying straight to his heart. Dustin had to parry it. The urn crashed on the floor. Crash! It shattered to pieces, and the ashes spilled all over the floor. “Dad!” the Wyatt sisters cried out. Dustin’s face was murderous. He did not care about anyone in the Wyatt family aside from Lucas, who had raised him. He was a father and teacher to Dustin. He was the only person who had shown Dustin kindness in the Wyatt family. Dustin would always honor Luc
“You ignorant fool!” The old man did not see Dustin as a threat because he was a rare sovereign grade fighter! He was one of the best fighters serving under Lord Barbenheim. With his strength as a sovereign grade fighter, he looked down on countless other fighters. That was why he thought Dustin was not a threat to him. After all, he was young. No matter how strong Dustin was, he could not possibly be stronger than him. Which was why when Dustin threw a punch at him, the old man remained composed. He pushed his palm forward gently. He thought that much force was enough to break Dustin’s bones and injure him badly. Their hands collided in an instant. Two huge forces clashed. The old man’s face changed. The power he felt on his palm was overwhelming and unyielding. It could destroy everything in its wake. It was terrifying. The old man’s face changed, and he took several steps back till he crashed into the door and broke it. He tasted blood in his mouth. He wanted t
Lord Barbenheim’s face was grim. When he saw that Ivan was dead, he had to admit that he had made a mistake. Lucas’s sole student seemed to have surpassed Lucas himself. Dustin walked to the living room. With each step he took, his murderous desire intensified. By the time he got into the living room, his murderous rage was so intense that it shocked Lord Barbenheim. He could also give off a murderous aura and intimidate someone, but that was something he had gained after killing countless people in the war. That was why the Wyatt sisters had felt so uneasy when they saw him. After all, they were just ordinary people. Dustin’s murderous aura was stronger than his! He was just a young man. He could not have possibly killed that many people. Lord Barbenheim’s expression morphed into one of utmost seriousness. “You must definitely have the Wyatt family’s treasure,” he said with certainty. Dustin was strong. If he were Lucas, he would definitely hand over the treasure t
“Lord Barbenheim… died? Did Dustin kill him?” The Wyatt sisters stared at the scene before them in disbelief. To them, Dustin had always been a useless piece of trash, and Lord Barbenheim was a respectable person. He gained the title of the War God when he led soldiers to war, and he was famous. How could someone like that die at Dustin’s hands? The Wyatt sisters refused to believe it. “Dustin can’t have killed him! He couldn’t possibly be able to do that. Those guys might have done it!” said Elisa as she pointed at one of the Hell Guards beside Dustin. When she was outside that time, she had seen just how easily the Hell Guards had killed Lord Barbenheim’s soldiers, so she knew how strong they were. “I heard that Dad trained another force in secret, aside from the Shadows. Those men in black must be that force! To think he left them for Dustin!” Elisa said indignantly. Elisa’s words made the Wyatt sisters finally piece together what might have happened. “I don’t un
“I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it,” Dustin said icily. “Listen to yourself! You don’t even bat an eye when you lie! I’ll enjoy watching you die!” Clara sneered. None of them believed that Dustin could deal with the impending problem. The Wyatt sisters mocked him, but Dustin ignored them and continued to collect Lucas’s ashes silently. He wrapped them in a piece of cloth and cradled it to his chest before he turned to leave. “Stop! We didn’t allow you to leave yet!” The Wyatt sisters stopped him. “How could you take Dad’s ashes?! Put them down!” Dustin’s face reflected impatience. He was getting really annoyed with the Wyatt sisters. “Since you can’t protect your own father’s ashes, I’ll be protecting it,” he said icily, and his eyes turned cold. “Move!” His one shout was terrifying. The Wyatt sisters’ faces turned pale. “Dustin, you insolent b*stard! You’re at the Wyatt family villa right now! What are you going to do next? Kill us?” Amara’s face darkened
Dustin actually knew that there was a secret in the backyard of the Wyatt family villa. Lucas had mentioned it to him while he was still alive. Lucas had told him that there was a great secret hidden inside. He had also told Dustin that he was not supposed to enter the secret room without his permission. Dustin was only allowed into the first room three years after his death. Dustin had always abided by Lucas’s will and never got closer to the secret room. But the three years were up. The Wyatt sisters sneered outside the secret room. The secret room was dangerous, and they did not dare enter it. “Dustin will most likely die from the traps in the secret room,” Clara said coldly. “Even if he manages to survive out of pure luck, we wouldn’t lose anything. We’ll learn what Dad left behind. Perhaps the treasure is inside!” “Killing two birds with one stone! Clara, you’re so smart!” said Elisa as she smiled and praised her. Delia and Elisa watched Dustin enter the secret
[The Fox family suffered a great, inhumane tragedy. Your entire family was killed. Your father was beheaded, and your mother took her own life to preserve her honor. [My greatest regret was arriving too late at the scene. Otherwise, the Fox family wouldn’t have been destroyed. [I was worried about you being dragged into this bloody fight, so I sent you to an orphanage. But someone managed to find you. That was why I had to keep you by my side. I treated you like my own son and taught you everything I knew.] When he read this, Dustin clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh. His eyes were bloodshot with rage. He always thought that he was a child who had been abandoned, but to think that he was actually tied to a blood feud was something else entirely! ‘Your father was beheaded, and your mother took her own life to preserve her honor.’ These words repeated themselves in his thoughts. Rage burned within him. His family had done nothing wrong. They pos
