The Harmons were shocked that the handsomely–paid King of Kicks had tricked them instead of


    lending them a helping hand. At that moment, they were lost and helpless.


    Meanwhile, the Boulderthorn guild was all smiles, a stark contrast to the anger and indignation on the


    Harmons‘ end.


    “Hahaha Ms. Harmon, your family has lost three rounds. Anyone else wants to get into the ring? If not,


    we’ll dere victory!” Brodyughed insolently. Very few knew the fact that the King of Kicks was a


    good friend of Mr. Williams. The betrayal was part of his n as well. That would force the Harmons


    into a corner!


    “Oh no! Are the Harmons leaving in defeat?”


    “I was looking forward to a great battle tonight. Who knew we’d witness such a botched situation!”


    “At the end of the day, the Harmons have fallen into a trap. The King of Kicks that they wasted the


    effort on recruiting turns out to be a rat from the Boulderthorn guild!”


    “Might is right! There’s no point arguing over this. The Harmons are destined to lose!”


    There was a lot of gossip surrounding the sharp turn of events. People were shocked and sympathetic;


    some were even gleeful at the disaster.


    “Natasha, your King of Kicks is a sham! What do we do now? Do we take the defeat?” Quentin put on


    an odd


    and critical look.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    Natasha bit her lips but said nothing. The situation had unfolded beyond her control, and she wondered


    if


    there was anyone who could save the day.


    “Ms. Harmon, is anyone from your side going into the ring? Just admit defeat if you have no one else to


    send. Stop wasting time,” Brody challenged her again.


    “Yeah! Just admit defeat! Don’t waste our time!” Those from the Boulderthorn guild chanted, and the


    Harmons


    had nothing to say in return, only upset looks on their faces.


    “I’ll go!” A voice boomed and echoed in the guild. Everyone looked at the handsome man who emerged


    from


    the crowd. It was Dustin Rhys!


    “Huh?” The audience standing beside him was puzzled.


    “Rhys! Are you kidding? The audacity to join the battle!” Quentin was taken aback before sniggering as


    he


    gave Dustin a look of disbelief.


    “Dustin, stop fooling around! Even Mr. Wangsley and the rest were no match for the Boulderthorn guild.


    What can you do up there? Losing your life?” Jessica rebuked, but she was more concerned about the


    reputation of the Harmons than Dustin’s safety. If he lost the battle, the Harmon family’s reputation


    would suffer.


    “Dustin, you don’t have to take the risk. If they want our stocks, we’ll give it to them.” Natasha was


    worried for


    her man. No amount of stocks or benefits was worth risking his life lor.


    “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.” He smiled. “I will not offer them our stocks, and I’ll save our reputation!” With


    that, he


    marched into the ring. He wasn’t nning on getting involved, but he was forced to do so after the King


    of Kicks switched sides at thest minute.


    “Sis, do you not want to stop him?” Ruth was a little concerned.


    “He’s not a reckless man. If he’s fine with joining the battle, he must be confident in his chances of


    winning.” Natasha put on a brave face, but her eyes betrayed her worry. However, she had no choice


    but to trust him unconditionally in such a critical time.


    “Kiddo, you must be on a suicide mission! How dare youe into the ring?” Brodyughed like a


    maniac and stared at Dustin like he was looking at a dead man. He had been thinking hard about


    getting revenge against


    Dustin, but Dustin made it easy for him.


    “Who is that?” Maximus questioned.


    “Max, that’s the inventor of Immortunol. He was the one who pped me this morning.” Brody


    exined.
