An Understated Dominance

“I don’t dare say it’s a brilliant idea, but it’s simple and effective. If we can grab the opportunity, it shouldn’t be difficult to catch the killer.” Dalen said with a smile.

“Mr. Shade, your idea isn’t bad. One question, though. Who’s going to be the bait?” Crystal quickly grasped the main problem.

The most difficult part was to choose who to be the bait.

The person must be a contestant and extremely skilled, daring to take the risk. This way, the bait could come out unscathed when faced with the killer’s attack.

Otherwise, they might lose the bait and let the killer escape.

“Well…” Dalen shook the folding fan and looked toward Dustin meaningfully.

Although he didn’t speak, it was obvious who he chose.

Crystal suddenly patted Dustin’s shoulder and announced, “There’s no need to choose. I think Dustin is a good fit! He can even block Kendricks’ attack. I’m sure he’ll be safe when faced with the killer’s attack!”

“That’s right! If Dustin agrees to take part, I’m sure he can get rid of the killer without our ambush!” Miles nodded with a smile.

Without anyone noticing, Miles had flattered Dustin again.

Dustin raised his eyebrows and rebuked, “Me? I’m not trying to reject, but the killer’s target is the contestants. I haven’t even signed up, so I’m not his target.”

Crystal grabbed his arm and replied hurriedly, “It’ll just take a few minutes to register. Let’s go! There’s still time, and the sun hasn’t set yet. Let’s go and register!”

“Is there a need to be in such a rush?” Dustin was quite speechless.

“It’ll be a shame if we miss this opportunity. After tonight, it’s unsure how many young and talented martial artists might die. You’re now a hero respected by many, so you should shoulder this responsibility!” Crystal advised.

“Wait a minute! I’m no hero. Plus, heroes usually are short-lived. What if I got killed on this mission?” Dustin answered.

“You don’t need to worry. We’ll definitely protect you, so just relax and go!” Crystal patted her chest, trying to get Dustin to rely on her.

A weird look appeared on Dustin’s face. He wondered how they were going to protect him if they couldn’t even protect themselves. They were basically talking nonsense.

“Dustin, we’re not going to force you if you’re not willing to. However, we should all work together to overcome this difficulty in such a situation.”NôvelDrama.Org content.

Dalen was serious.

Among all of them, Dustin was the most suitable.

Plus, Dustin had gotten rather famous after the battle with Marco and Kendrick. With just a little embellishment, he could easily attract the killer’s attention and successfully carry out the bait plan.

Of course, Dalen understood if Dustin thought it was risky and refused. After all, nobody would be willing to bet on their lives.

“I can be a bait. However, I have a condition,” Dustin suddenly said after thinking it over.

“Do tell us. I won’t refuse as long as I can fulfill it,” Dalen declared resolutely.

“It’s simple. Let me handle the killer once we capture him. I’m quite interested in him.” Dustin’s face was solemn.

“No problem. As long as he doesn’t threaten the martial world anymore, you can deal with him as you want!” Dalen agreed.

Everyone glanced at each other and nodded.

They didn’t care who was the killer as long as they could get rid of him.
