The Legendary Man novel Chapter 221

Chapter 221 Mister Goldstein

The wedding only ended at a little over ten o’clock at night.

It was as though the four men in black robes who appeared out of the blue had never been there, for they only stayed for a few minutes before they disappeared without a trace.

No one saw their true countenances, much less discerned their gender beneath the masks.

All they knew was that the four people came from that mysterious and terrifying place—Asura’s Office.

“I’ll drive you home, Mr. Goldstein!” Zachary promptly rushed forward when the wedding was drawing to an end, wishing to drive Jonathan home personally.

His face was pale, making it clear that he had imbibed quite a bit.

Nonetheless, he wasn’t the least bit intoxicated.

Considering his high alcohol tolerance, he wouldn’t be affected in the slightest even if he were to drink a few more bottles of wine, let alone the paltry amount he had consumed.

In response, Jonathan waved a dismissive hand. “No, thanks. I’ll be fine going home alone. Also, you can dismiss the soldiers outside the entrance. After tonight, lead your troops back to your respective territories.”

The four Kings of War commandeered a hundred thousand Asura Guards, all guarding a cardinal direction each.

As the Turner family had been wiped out and Jazona bathed in blood, it was time for them to return.

“Understood, Mr. Goldstein!”

Without further ado, Zachary lifted his hand and saluted the man before leaving briskly.

After his departure, Terrence, Dorian, and Reaper stepped forward one by one and saluted Jonathan wordlessly before they left as well.

Subsequently, it was Kingstone’s turn.

However, the man was in no hurry to leave. Instead, he looked at Jonathan with guilt and self-recrimination written all over his face. “Mr. Goldstein, I have no excuse that such a colossal mess happened in Jazona. After tonight, I’ll voluntarily resign my post as the governor of Jazona. Please accept my resignation, Mr. Goldstein!”

A cosmic mess transpired in Jazona, with the Turner family stepping all over him and even kidnapping Josephine’s family, yet I didn’t know anything despite being the governor of Jazona. Even if he doesn’t order me to resign, I’m too ashamed to continue holding that post!

When Jonathan heard that, his gaze abruptly went chilly. “I don’t want to hear such words a second time. When you go back, you’ll be forfeited a year’s salary and prohibited from being promoted within three years in addition to an extra year of probation. If anything happens in Jazona again within the year, you don’t need to tender your resignation to me. Just go and stay at Northern Crimson Prison!”

“Mr. Goldstein, I…”

Kingstone wanted to say something else, but a glare from Jonathan had him instantly zipping his mouth.

“Hmm?”

With just a look, Kingstone didn’t dare argue further.

When the people there witnessed that scene, they all trembled in fear, and their legs almost gave out.

The owner of Velarium Hotel, Xayden, almost fell to his knees with a thud at that sight.

Who is Kingstone Warhol? He’s the governor of Jazona, his power so vast in the entire state that he’s only second to Zachary Lint! But in front of Jonathan, he doesn’t even dare utter a single word of protest. There’s only one person in this world who can intimidate him so greatly that he dares not retaliate—Asura!

“I should be leaving as well, Mr. Goldstein.” At that precise moment, Luna tactfully took her leave.

Why would I stay here when the Kings of War, Lieutenant Reaper, and Kingstone have left? I don’t want to be the third wheel!

Mischievously throwing Jonathan a wink, she added, “Also, don’t work too hard tonight. Ms. Smith is dainty and delicate, so don’t bully her!”

Despite having guessed his identity, she didn’t show it in the slightest.

That was how intelligent she was.
