Chapter 1810 by Marina Vittori

“Uncle Lincon, thank you for worrying about me. I’m indeed still alive.” Dustin nodded. Dustin didn’t know about Lincon’s past. Thus, he felt a bit taken aback by how emotional Lincon got.

“It’s a good thing that you’re still alive! “Lincon was both surprised and happy. “Ten years have passed so quickly. You’ve gotten so tall. I almost didn’t manage to recognize you.”

“That’s right. It’s been ten years. A lot of things are different now,” Dustin replied with a sigh. Ten years ago, his mother passed away, and his father was also assassinated ten years later.

Over the course of ten years, both of his parents were no longer around. It was a tragic fact.

“Uncle Lincon, you said you would fully support the monarchy if you met Logan. Now that you’ve seen my eldest brother, you won’t go back on your word, right?” Austin tried asking.

“If His Highness is willing to inherit the throne, I’ll support him to ascend the throne even if I have to sacrifice myself!” Lincon replied earnestly.

Compared to his previous calm and indifferent demeanor, Lincon exuded a spirit that had never been seen before.

“Okay! You’re surely a trustworthy person!” Austin smiled, letting out a huge sigh of relief. Alas, Dustin could only be the one who could get the job done!

Austin had tried his best but still failed to convince Lincon. Yet, the man had agreed instantly after seeing Dustin.

Although it had been ten years, the name of the Rhys family’s descendant still resonated deeply in many’s hearts and commanded respect.

“Uncle Lincon, nobody knows that I’m returning to West Lucozia. I hope you can help keep it a secret until I find out who killed my father!” Dustin reminded him.

“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely keep my lips sealed!” Lincon nodded. Lincon was a smart man. Naturally, he knew Dustin’s intentions.

The remnants of the Dragon Guard had assassinated Rufus, causing West Lucozia to be in chaos. Plus, Julius was now vying for the throne.

If Dustin exposed his identity right now, he would become the target of criticism. On the contrary, it would be better for him to hide in the shadows and bide for time.

“Thank you, Uncle Lincon.” Dustin clasped his hands.

“Your Highness, I have a suggestion if you want to beat Julius,” Lincon said. An idea had suddenly popped into his head.

“Oh? Please enlighten me.” Dustin raised an eyebrow.

“Julius has considerable influence in the military. However, he still falls far short of the late prince.

Although the Northern Four Sovereigns are Julius’ men, more than 80 percent of the Black Dragon Army are faithful to the late prince and the monarchy.”

“If we use Your Highness’ name to secretly contact the late prince’s faithful comrades, I’m sure you’ll be able to gather a strong team. This team alone will be enough to crush Julius!” Lincon explained seriously.

After hearing that, Austin’s eyes lit up. “That’s right! Why didn’t I think of that? If I use Dustin’s name to issue a command, I’m sure a lot of people will support us!”

Although Julius was influential, he was not unbeatable.

As long as they partnered up with all the generals, they could completely sideline him without even going to war!

“It might have been possible ten years ago. However, I’m not certain about it now.” Dustin shook his head.

Ten years ago, he was at the peak of his influence and commanded widespread support in West Lucozia.

However, it was different now. A lot of things had changed after he disappeared for ten years.

Not many people would recognize and support him.

“Don’t underestimate yourself. For people like us, you’re the hope for the future of West Lucozia. As long as you inherit the throne, I’m sure many will be willing to support you!” Lincon was confident.
