Chapter 220 Eight Kings of War
One of the men in black robes and masks glanced at Jonathan airily before replying, “How could we possibly not attend your wedding? If Zachary hadn’t told us about it, we wouldn’t even have known that you’re getting married today! Why, you’ve forgotten about Asura’s Office just after leaving for a year?”
Asura’s Office?
When those two words drifted into the air, everyone there broke out in cold sweat.
After all, Asura’s Office was a name that only existed in legends.
Rumor had it that Asura’s Office was established by Asura himself and was immensely powerful, even more so than the four Kings of War.
No one knew the reason for its existence or its field of power.
In fact, they couldn’t even be sure whether Asura’s Office was a building or a troop.
Nonetheless, that hadn’t the slightest bearing on the stark fear they harbored toward Asura’s Office.
Besides, it was also rumored that the world would descend into chaos if Asura’s Office were to make a move, for they were the final stabilizing force in the world.
“You know I don’t like crowds.” Jonathan cast them a placid look before sweeping his gaze over Zachary. At that mere glance, Zachary’s expression stiffened, and he felt a shiver running down his spine. “I can explain, Mr. Goldstein—”
Just as he started speaking, Jonathan cut him off. “You don’t have to say anything. When the wedding ends, follow Dorian back to Mysonna!”
“Mr. Goldstein, I—”
When Zachary heard the word Mysonna, goosebumps rose all over him.
Throwing him a chilly look, Jonathan interrupted him mid-utterance. “Zip it! If you dare utter another word, you’ll be grounded for an additional month!”
In the blink of an eye, Zachary went silent without daring to say a single word further.
“Have a seat,” Jonathan offered, looking at the four black-robed men nonchalantly.
Hearing that, the four men took their seats.
When they were seated, Jonathan casually lit a cigarette and drawled, “Nothing happened at Asura’s Office in the past year, yes?”
“It looks like our trip hasn’t been in vain. At the very least, you still remember Asura’s Office, Mr. Goldstein.” Although the black-robed man’s face remained obscured, his voice overflowed with resentment.
At that, Jonathan inexorably shot him a glare. “Watch it! It’s not like the Asura’s Office had no idea where I was in the past year.”
“Have you found it, Mr. Goldstein?” The black-robed man asked with his gaze trained on the man.
Jonathan shook his head, murmuring, “No. Who told you that it was at Northern Crimson Prison back then?”
Likewise, the black-robed man shook his head. “It was just hearsay. But this time, we didn’t just come to Jadeborough to attend your wedding. There’s something we want to tell you.”
“What is it?” Jonathan’s brows creased slightly.
“It’s a rumor about that item.” Subsequently, the black-robed man lowered his voice considerably. “Leads are pointing to it being in a particular place in Yaleview, but we can’t be certain of the exact location.”
“Yaleview?”
The instant Jonathan heard that word, his brows knitted together into a deep frown.
That’s the last place I want to go. If it weren’t for the fact that Mom and Dad are buried there, I wouldn’t want to step foot in Yaleview for the rest of my days!
