The Legendary Man Chapter 978- Slaughter
Upon hearing Kane’s words, Zachary and Hades couldn’t help but narrow their eyes.
After all, Jonathan didn’t establish Asura’s Office and was given the title Asura so people would be intimidated by him.
He had accomplished remarkable success from his experience in war and the strategies he employed.
Asura signified death.
Everyone, including the eight respectable families, would be putting their life on the line if they were to incur the wrath of Asura.
Although Jonathan allowed his subordinates to have a certain degree of autonomy in their activities, he was also mindful of the need to ensure that the establishment of Asura’s Office could take place in a timely manner. He would take drastic measures when dealing with those who exhibited defiance toward their superiors or failed to comply with instructions.
Kane’s audacity to challenge Jonathan left them in disbelief. If this brazen act had occurred under more typical circumstances, he would have faced harsh punishment.
However, Jonathan merely took one look at Kane’s white staff before turning to leave.
“It’s pointless…”
Before Jonathan could finish his words, Kane appeared before him in a flash.
His staff transformed into a thin, delicate thread that cut through the air with ease, coming to a rest in front of Jonathan.
The staff came to a stop barely an inch in front of Jonathan, but the latter remained unfazed and continued walking away.
Kane let out a roar, causing the staff to veer off course and strike the earth beside him with a resounding thud.
Bang!
A muffled sound echoed as a crater was formed on the ground.
Amidst the rapid cascade of rocks and soil, Kane managed to locate his wooden staff and fixed his gaze on Jonathan’s back. The murderous glint in his eyes gradually dissipated.
He had gone all out to take Jonathan’s life, and he believed that Jonathan had picked up on his malicious intentions.
Even so, Jonathan didn’t retaliate at all.
“Jonathan!” Kane hollered. “What is wrong with you? The one million and eight hundred thousand members of Asura’s Office regard you as Asura. What should we do if you act this way?”
“Asura’s Office has nothing to do with me now. You are free to do whatever you want,” came Jonathan’s calm answer.
Without hesitation, he marched toward No. 2 Villa.
Hades and Zachary stared at Kane solemnly.
“Did Mr. Goldstein realize our intention?” Zachary asked in confusion as he retracted his scraper.
“No way,” Kane said in a frosty tone. “I had every intention to take his life and didn’t give myself away.”
Hades let out a soft sigh. “Our cultivation levels are too low, so we don’t know what Mr. Goldstein’s problem is. Pass on my order to those involved. Keep this information confidential and do not let anyone else know about it.”
“Got it!” Zachary and Kane replied in low voices.
The trio made two separate attempts to rouse Jonathan’s enthusiasm for battle, but their efforts did not bear fruit.
No one had any idea of what the future held for Asura’s Office without the leadership of its founder, Asura.
Emmeline was sitting on the swing in the courtyard of No. 1 Villa, reading a book.
When Jonathan pushed the gate and walked in, she quickly placed her book aside and ran up to greet him.
“You’re back, Jonathan!” she called out happily.
After the Osborne family took Josephine away, Jonathan had been wandering about and rarely returned to Edenic Heights.
Margaret was taken aback. “What do you mean by tomorrow?”
On the stairs, Jonathan halted in his tracks and turned around slowly. “I’ll bring her back tomorrow.”
With that, he continued his way up the stairs.
Margaret was completely stunned as she sat in a state of disbelief on the couch.
When Emmeline came in, she turned around and pointed at the stairs. “What was that? Josephine is in a potentially life-threatening situation because of him, so he should be the one to save her, no? Why is he behaving so arrogantly?”
Jonathan shut the door behind him and collapsed into the bed weakly.
This was the bedroom that he shared with Josephine, and it was the only place where he could find some reprieve from the constant questioning of his own decisions and actions.
Lying on the bed, he stared at the ceiling and took out Heaven Sword.
Jonathan’s Cor was broken.
Following his conversation with Seboxia, he began to have doubts about his fundamental beliefs.
Before this, Jonathan had thought everyone he slaughtered deserved to die, and he was merely serving justice to them.
At long last, he came to the realization that he was, in fact, a murderer, despite how he had sought to justify his conduct by claiming he was simply meting out justice to them.
