An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1203
âStop!â Just as Dustin was about to kill Ronald, a booming voice yelled. At the same time, an arrow shot out at an incredible speed, carrying tremendous force. With a loud clang, it accurately struck against the Celestial Sword.
âHmm?â Dustinâs body quivered, stopping his actions. At the same time, he cast a cold gaze below stage. Unbeknownst to him, Woody had already stood up, holding a powerful bow in his hand. He had fired that arrow.
âSir Bolts, what do you mean by this?â Dustin frowned slightly.âDustin, you have won. Donât overdo it.
Woodyâs expression was cold. âDonât be so eager to burn bridges and make things difficult lest it backfires!â
âSir Bolts, our duel was a fight to the death. Only one can emerge alive in the battle ring. That is the rule of the martial world,â Dustin said coldly.
âThe Martial Arts Union establishes the rules of the martial world. I hold the highest position here and wield the ultimate authority!â Woodyâs tone was extremely overbearing.
His intervention was motivated by Dustinâs lack of gratitude. It was also because Ronald was still useful to him. As the leader of Balerno martial arts alliance, Ronaldâs position, status, and influence were unparalleled.
If he died, the world of Balerno martial arts would be plunged into chaos. At that point, the union would have to intervene to restore order.
âSir Bolts, the rules of the martial world should be upheld impartially. Weâve already signed a waiver. Your protection of Ronald seems biased,â Dustin said.
âEnough with the nonsense! Sir Reeds is a prominent figure in the marital world and a pillar of our nation. The union will protect a talented man like him at all costs!â Woody retorted sharply.
âSir Bolts, if Iâm not mistaken, the union has clear rules against intervening in disputes. You wonât be able to justify your actions,â Dustin reminded him.
âYou want to try me? Very well!â
Woody sneered.
He turned his attention toward Ronald. Then, he said loudly, âSir Reeds, would you be willing to join the Martial Arts Union? As long as you agree, will back you up!â the union Ronald lit up with joy at his words. It was as if he had grasped a lifeline. He nodded repeatedly. âI agree, I agree! Iâll join the union! Iâm willing to work hard for the union!â
This was the best chance to save his life. As long as he had the unionâs backing, Dustin wouldnât dare to act recklessly, even if he had immense courage. Even though he would be losing his freedom, it was a small sacrifice compared to losing his life.
âThere! Did you hear that? Ronald is now a part of the union. It is only natural for us to protect him. Do you still have any objections?â Woody lifted his head slightly, looking proud.
So what if Dustin was talented, skilled, and powerful? He still had to bow in submission before the union.
âSir Bolts, are you playing games with me?â Dustinâs eves narrowed slightly.
âThe union has always acted benevolent to win the people over. Since you brought up rules, then letâs talk about rules.
âRonald has now joined the union. If you dare kill him, it will be a challenge to the unionâs authority! Consider the consequences yourself!â Woody openly issued a threat.
The Martial Arts Union represented the power of the government. They stood above all guilds with overwhelming influence.
Once someone became a wanted fugitive of the union, there would be no place to hide, no matter how vast the world was.
That was one of the reasons why the union was so feared. âItâs fortunate that Sir Bolts is present today. Otherwise, we would have been plunged into chaos.â Theodore sighed in relief as he watched Woody take control of the situation.
