Hector was astonished at the thought. He turned his head and looked toward Dustin, finding him calm


    and collected. It appeared as if he were an outsider in the situation. However, that was exactly what


    made him indiscernible.


    Upon deep reflection, Hector realized that the Harmons‘ situation had taken a turn for the better when


    Dustin started challenging Tyler. Was this young man in front of him really the person who turned the


    tide? It would be frightening if that were the case!


    “Mr. Hector, I’m needed elsewhere, so I’ll be taking my leave first.” George left after saying his


    goodbyes. He didn’t expose Dustin’s identity as he was worried about making thingsplicated for


    him. Some things were better left untold.


    “Guess there’s no more fighting. I’ll be leaving too.” Paul gave Dustin a knowing look before


    leaving with his head held high.


    “Mr. Hector, see you next time.” Sir Moran shook his hand and left as well.


    As the influential figures departed, the ballroom livened up even more. Not only did the guests discuss


    among themselves, but even the Harmons were making their own spections.


    “Dad, I can’t believe you’re influential enough to be able to invite Sir Paul and Lord Xenos over. You’re


    amazing!” Natasha walked up with a huge smile on her face. With two influential figures backing them,


    she was sure Tyler wouldn’t dare force her hand in marriage any longer. She


    considered herself to have broken free from him.


    “Hector, it seems you have more tricks hidden up your sleeves. I’m impressed!” Trent and a few of his


    people went up to Hector as well. Each of them looked proud, their faces brimming with excitement.


    With Lord Xenos and Sir Paul backing them, the Harmons would be unstoppable.


    “Trent, it wasn’t me. I don’t have that kind of influence.” Hector remained modest and shook his

    head.


    “Then who could it be if it wasn’t you?” Trent was puzzled and confused.


    “I’m wondering the same thing…” Hector rubbed his chin and nced at Dustin once again. He asked


    meaningfully, “Dustin, do you know who could have invited them?”


    Before Dustin could respond, a clear and loud voice interjected, “Uncle Hector, there’s no need to


    specte any longer, as that would be me!” The crowd turned their heads in the direction of the voice


    and saw Dn walking over proudly.


    “Dn, are you acquainted with Lord Xenos and Sir Paul?” Trent was pleasantly surprised.


    “Although I don’t know them personally, they appeared because of me.” Dn was confident.


    “Oh? Why do you say so?” Trent was taken aback.


    “I’m associated with the Dark Panther Cavalry, and I have the backing of the Goddess of War. It’s likely


    that they recognized my potential and talent and decided to help out.” Dn’s head was held high.


    “That’s right! Dn is the Scarlet Warrior’s trusted aide. It’s natural for Lord Xenos to take a liking


    to him,” Kate chimed in.


    “So that’s why… No wonder Lord Xenos was that enthusiastic.”


    “Dn truly is exceptional to have gained the favor of the two influential figures.”


    “Dn, I didn’t know you had such powerful connections. You’re amazing!”


    At that moment, the crowd showered him with praises, hailing him as their savior.


    Jacobughed heartily and was filled with pride. “My son is so talented!” He was clued in on Sir


    Moran’s appearance. However, he didn’t expect his son to be so skilled that he would garner Lord


    Xenos and Sir Paul’s attention.


    “I think there’s more to this. Dn’s status is not enough to impress the viceroy,” Natasha said after


    thoughtful consideration. She noticed George never even nced at Dn throughout the entire


    ordeal.


    “Hmph! You’re just jealous!”
