If Julius did that, it would be akin to walking into his own demise.

“Hmph! At least you’re self-aware.”

Julius sneered and continued, “Rufus, your youngest son has already admitted defeat. So,

where is your eldest son?”

“Logan, you’ve hidden long enough. Don’t you think it’s time to reveal yourself?” Rufus

spoke loudly.

Although he hadn’t laid eyes on Logan, he sensed his presence. In the previous case

involving Russo, it was Logan’s tip -off that provided him the opportunity to eliminate the

pests.

Now, with such a significant incident happening in the monarchy, given his son’s

character, he would definitely not stand by idly. 2

“I can’t believe you not only deceived Julius but also all of us, you sly fox. And now, you’re

even having me serve as your scapegoat. Is this really appropriate?”

After a brief moment of hesitation, Dustin finally removed his prosthetic mask. With Rufus

still alive, the monarchy remained in power. Dustin had no choice but to reveal himself in

the current circumstances. 1

Despite feeling somewhat cornered, he recognized that Rufus had made this decision in

his best interest, as today presented the best moment to solidify his standing and

prestige.

Defeating Julius, the Grand General of the Black Dragon Army, in front of his troops, would

pave the way for his future succession by removing significant obstacles.

“What? Logan is actually him?” The revelation of Dustin’s true identity left everyone in

shock.

No one had anticipated the mysterious and skilled master who defeated Elijah earlier to be

the Kirin who had been missing for a decade. 2

The impact of this revelation rivaled that of Rufus’ resurrection. It seemed cunningness

ran in the family, with both father and son proving to be masters of surprises.

“It’s you? How is that possible?” Julius’ expression conveyed shock.

He had thought Logan was gone for good, never expecting him to be so close. Moreover,

he lacked confidence in securing a sure victory based on the skills Logan displayed earlier.

“Dear all, I apologize for concealing my identity. However, it was necessary at the time. I

hope you understand.” After revealing his identity, Dustin bowed toward the members of

the monarchy.

“Logan, when did you come back?” Eloise was stunned. After looking at Dustin, she shifted

her attention to Austin. Austin smiled awkwardly, pretending not to notice.

“I’ve been back for a few days now. I heard the monarchy was facing a crisis, so I helped

out in secret. But due to certain reasons, I couldn’t expose my identity.

“Unfortunately, I was still unable to hide it from this sly fox.” Dustin swept a gaze over to

Rufus, his expression reflecting various emotions.

When he had heard the news of his father’s supposed death, he had struggled to contain

his emotions. However, it all turned out to be part of Rufus’ elaborate scheme.

Rufus had orchestrated his own death as a way to lure out those with ulterior motives and

eliminate them.

Dustin had to admit that it was a cunning move. It was so well executed that it even

deceived those closest to him.

Although Julius excelled in both civil and military affairs and had remarkable strategic

acumen, he remained significantly outmatched by the visionary Rufus.

Whether orchestrating his fake death or meticulously planning this duel, Rufus had

manipulated Julius unwittingly from start to finish.

This was Prince Rufus of West Lucozia’s strategic depth!
