Chapter 219
The Legendary Man
The Legendary Man Chapter 219 From The Office Of Asura Jon? When everyone there heard that address, their hearts clenched in terror.
Who else in the whole of Chanaea dares to address Jonathan Goldstein as Jon other than him?
At the drop of a hat, their gazes brimmed with pity as they stared at Zachary.
âWhy are you all looking at me so strangely?â Zachary queried densely upon glimpsing the look in their eyes.
At that, Terrence couldnât resist glancing at him. âWhy do you think? In this whole wide world, youâre the first person who dares address him as Jon. I admire your guts. Well, as expected of the Vanquisher King of War! Here, Iâll toast you! Iâll definitely visit your grave on this very day next year and toast you again!â
Right after saying that, he lifted his wine glass and emptied it.
When he had done so, Dorian, Kingstone, and Reaper also raised their wine glasses and downed everything without a word.
âWeâll toast you as well, drinking to your guts!â
Hearing their words, Zachary couldnât help grumbling, âYour comments are making goosebumps rise all over my skin. Iâm not at fault since it was Mr. Goldstein who signaled me to play along with him!â
He naturally dared to speak the truth then as Jonathan and Josephine had left.
âHah! He didnât ask you to address him as Jon or to pat him on the shoulder! So, how did it feel to be his superior?â Terrence drawled with a sneer.
âH-He isnât that petty, right?â Zachary couldnât help swallowing.
All of a sudden, panic deluged him.
âWho told you that he isnât petty?â Curling his lips, Terrence whispered, âDid no one tell you that he holds a grudge for a long time? Youâre dead, Zachary!â
âIâ¦â Zachary was just about to say something else when he noticed Kingstone, Dorian, Terrence, and Reaper staring at him with a mournful look.
From their eyes, he could distinctly perceive an identical sentimentâ âour condolences.â
Crap! Iâm doomed!
âNo, he wonât be so pettyâ¦â Shaking his head, he wanted to assuage himself. Alas, he abruptly caught sight of Jonathan, who had walked off, suddenly making his way back.
The instant he spotted the man, he quickly greeted, âMr. Goldstein!â
But before he had even finished speaking, Jonathan cut him off. âWhen you go back, head to Mysonna and stay there for a month.â
âMr. Goldstein, Iââ
Zachary immediately panicked when he heard that. Unfortunately, he was again interrupted mid-
utterance. âOne more word from you, and youâll be grounded for another month!â
In a flash, he zipped his mouth in fright, not daring to utter a single word of protest.
At the sight of him being too terrified to speak, Terrence, Kingstone, Dorian, and Reaper looked at him with mockery in their eyes.
If Jonathan werenât there, they would have probably long since burst out laughing.
âOh yes, the few of you are also confined for half a month when you return!â As soon as Jonathanâs words rang out, the amusement of the few people who were holding back their laughter vanished in a puff of smoke.
âMr. Goldstein, why are we grounded as well?â The four men wore morose expressions on their faces.
We were just watching the show, so how did we get dragged into the mess?
âDidnât you say that Iâm petty and hold a grudge for a long time?â
Eyeing them coldly, Jonathan murmured, âSince youâve said as much, how could I not confine you all for half a month?â
All at once, the four menâs faces turned ashen, and none of them had any amusement left in them.
A little over an hour later, everyone was clinking glasses.
Outside the hotel, the dazzling display of fireworks continued.
Fireworks lighted up the entire sky for more than an hour, dyeing the sky a myriad of colors.
At just that moment, several men in black robes appeared in front of the hotel.
Not only were they wearing black robes, but they were also wearing black masks.
They exuded a mysterious aura from head to toe.
âStop right there! Who are the lot of you?â The second they approached the hotel entrance, countless soldiers in black armor blocked their paths.
At the same time, umpteen guns were pointed at them.
âWeâre from Asuraâs Office!â
A hoarse voice rang out from one of the black-robed men. Subsequently, the man lifted his right hand, upon which a black and gold seal fell into his hand with a flick of his wrist.
Two words were engraved on that black and gold sealâAsuraâs Office.
âYouâre from Asuraâs Office?â The moment the soldiers in black armor heard that reply, their expressions changed. One of them took the seal from the black-robed man. After ascertaining that it was the real deal, they all dropped to their knees and announced, âThe Divine Dragon Guards at your service, Sirs!â
âYou may all rise.â The black-robed man waved a dismissive hand before asking mildly, âWeâre not late, are we? Has the wedding ended?â
âThe wedding hasnât ended, Sir!â the soldiers in black armor answered, not daring to lift their heads.
âIâm glad to hear that.â
The black-robed man seemingly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that. Then, a few black silhouettes flashed past and disappeared in a heartbeat.
Outside the entrance to the hotel lobby, Andrew was patrolling while Randall personally guarded the door.
When Andrew saw the few black figures approaching, he instantly drew his gun and dropped into a battle stance.
But just as he was doing that, someone suddenly held his hand down.
He jerked his head back, only to see that it was Zachary, the Vanquisher King of War.
âSir?â
Andrew regarded him in puzzlement.
âTheyâre from Asuraâs Office. How many lives do you have that you dare pull your gun on them?â
Zachary glanced at him icily, pressing on his hand that was grasping his gun.
Then, he turned to the few black-robed men and queried, âWhy are the few of you only arriving now?
The wedding is drawing to an end.â
One of the black-robed men threw him a look and replied, âSomething cropped up at the last minute.
Whereâs Asura?â
âHeâs inside. Come with me.â
While saying that, Zachary started striding toward the lobby.
A few minutes later, he pushed open the door to the banquet hall.
When the door swung open, everyone promptly whipped their gazes over.
Terrence, Dorian, and Reaper jumped to their feet in concert upon seeing the few black-robed men behind Zachary. Meanwhile, Kingstone wore a perplexed expression, making it evident that he was in the dark about the menâs identities.
He wasnât the only one, for everyone there eyed the few black-robed men in mystification other than the three men standing up.
After all, people would easily mistake their presence as a deliberate attempt to make trouble since they were all wearing black robes and masks to a wedding.
âWhy are you all here?â Jonathan frowned slightly with his eyes pinned on the few black-robed men.
