The Legendary Man novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11 Royal Bar

When Jonathan arrived downstairs, Josephine was nowhere to be seen.

Meanwhile, Andrew, who was supposed to have left with his troop, had been waiting for him downstairs. Upon spotting Jonathan, he scurried over and greeted, “Commander!”

“Did Zachary send you to tail me?” Jonathan asked, his gaze turning icy.

Andrew’s face paled at the overwhelming presence exuded by Asura. It felt as though a sword was going to slash his throat any minute.

Jonathan’s penetrating gaze made Andrew hang his head low.

“N-No, we’re not tailing you. King of War sent us to protect you!” Andrew replied in a shaky voice, too anxious and afraid to look straight at his superior.

“Protect?” Hearing his answer, Jonathan snickered. “Do I need your protection?”

At that, Andrew stiffened.

Indeed, Asura was mighty enough to conquer the world without losing a single battle. He did not need to be protected.

“Relay my words to Zachary. If he interferes in my business one more time, he shall return to Northern Crimson Prison and stay there for one year!”

Fear colored Andrew’s pale complexion when he heard Jonathan’s words. Falling to his knees, he answered, “Yes, Sir!”

After casting one last look at him, Jonathan turned and strode away.

Right after his figure disappeared from sight, Andrew whipped out his phone with trembling hands. He dialed a number without hesitation and said, “Sir, Asura—”

“Did he say he’ll lock me up in Northern Crimson Prison if I were to interfere in his business one more time?” Zachary interjected before he could finish his sentence.

“H-How did you know?” Andrew’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Did the King of War install some kind of a bug to spy on me?

“Stop looking around. I didn’t plant any bug on you!” The King of War seemed to know what Andrew was thinking as he chuckled before explaining, “I’ve worked under Asura for two years, and we’ve killed countless enemies together. I know him well.”

His tone turned stern as he ordered, “You’re not allowed to come back. Conceal yourself and continue to tail him. Remember, don’t let Asura get into danger!”

“But Asura—”

Right when Andrew replied, Zachary cut him off impatiently yet again. “Shut up. Do you intend on defying a military order? Even if Asura skin me alive, you must remain within one hundred meters of his vicinity. If he gets hurt, I shall slaughter you!”

“Yes, Sir!”

Naturally, Andrew dared not defy a military order.

“That group of people in the West Region is acting suspiciously nowadays. I suspect they will send someone to harm Asura. Though Asura is invincible, we must still put our guard up and not give them an opening to hurt him. Do you hear me?”

“Yes, Sir!”

A murderous glint appeared in Andrew’s eyes at the mention of the West Region.

The cheek of the West Region to cause trouble in Jazona! Do they have a death wish?

After leaving Phoenix International Hotel, Jonathan decided not to head to the Smith residence to look for Josephine. Considering how he had just made her hackles rise, she would not talk to him amicably if he were to go after her.

He had, after all, disappeared for three years. Anyone faced with the same situation would react the same way as Josephine. Hence, he could understand why she was fuming and did not blame her.
