The Legendary Man Chapter 364

Relieved Of Your Duties

“Yes, Mr. Goldstein!”

Fabian dared not hesitate the slightest bit. Without another word, he took out his phone and dialed a number.

After a while, a rough voice sounded from the other end of the line.

“Fabian? What’s up?”

“Come to Jipsdale International Hotel. Someone wants to see you!” said Fabian in a low voice.

“Who’s so great that I have to go and see him personally?” Upon hearing Fabian’s words, the person on the receiving end of the call sneered. “If they want to see me, tell them to come over themselves!”

Jonathan casually took Fabian’s phone and said calmly, “It’s me!”

The moment Jeremy heard Jonathan’s voice, his tone changed. “M-Mr. Goldstein? When did you come to Jipsdale?”

“Why? Can’t I come?”

“N-No! Mr. Goldstein, that’s not what I meant!”

“Get over here within ten minutes!”

As soon as Jonathan finished his words, he hung up the phone without allowing Jeremy the chance to speak again.

When the call ended, the whole lobby became deathly quiet.

Everyone looked at Jonathan blankly. A strong hint of disbelief flashed across their eyes.

That’s Jeremy Yates, the highest authority in Jipsdale! He’s one of the Eight Kings of War and a figure of great influence who stands guard in this city! In fact, no one in Jipsdale would dare to speak to him that way—not even Fabian Jones!

Click!

Jonathan nonchalantly lit a cigarette and looked at Fabian, saying, “Do you plan to let these soldiers whom you’ve brought continue aiming their guns at me?”

“All Spike Dragon Guards, listen up! Immediately keep away your guns!”

“Yes, Sir!”

Just with that one command, all the soldiers in black armor instantly kept away their guns.

However, there was a look of confusion in their eyes as they stared at Jonathan.

They were very curious about his identity, and some even had some assumptions.

Despite that, no one dared to ask questions.

Ten minutes later—no more, no less—the main door of the hotel was kicked open with a bang.

Then, a tanned middle-aged man in a green military outfit barged into the hotel hastily.

“Mr. Goldstein!”

As soon as he entered, Jeremy kneeled before Jonathan.

His action instantly caused shock to everyone present.

Their eyes widened at the sight of what had happened.

No one expected that the first thing Jeremy Yates, the Western King of War, would do when he saw Jonathan was to kneel before the latter.

H-How is this possible? He’s the Western King of War!

There was no use trying to justify himself before Jonathan.

“Do you think your apology will suffice?” said Jonathan as he eyed Jeremy coldly. “When I first stationed you in Jipsdale, it was to eliminate all the threats before they had the chance to grow! It was not for you to come here and make yourself king! After you return, go and admit your fault before Asura’s Office. You are not allowed to leave Yaleview even a single step for a year. From now on, your Spike Dragon Guards will be under Hades’ command. You’ve been relieved of your duties!”

“Mr. Goldstein!” The moment Jeremy heard that he had been fired, his expression abruptly changed, and his eyes reddened.

After all, the Spike Dragon Guards was the fruit of his blood, sweat, and tears.

They had followed him on his journey to conquer the lands, and they had slaughtered countless enemies together.

Now that he had to submit and hand over his army to someone else, it hurt far greater than killing him.

“What?” said Jonathan with a stern look.

Jeremy did not dare to say another word when he met Jonathan’s gaze. Instead, he obediently lowered his head and conceded, “Yes, Mr. Goldstein!”

“Also, before you leave this city, make sure you get rid of the existence of the four prominent families in Jipsdale, such as the Joneses. I don’t want to see them anymore. Is that clear?”

“Yes, Sir!”

This time, Jeremy did not hesitate at all.

“Mr. Goldstein…”

When Fabian, the governor of Jipsdale, heard Jonathan’s order, he could not help but turn to look at him.

“What’s the matter? Do you have any objections?”

Jonathan’s gaze turned cold as ice.

“N-No!” Fabian quickly shook his head. “I just wanted to ask if you could spare my family? As long as we’re allowed to live, I promise that the Jones family will disappear from Jipsdale before twelve o’clock tonight!”
