The Legendary Man novel Chapter 590

Chapter 590 Add Value

“Jonathan?” Sofus was shocked to see Jonathan there. “Shouldn’t you be—”

“Shouldn’t I be loitering fifty miles away instead of showing up here? Is that what you want to ask?”

Jonathan leaped down from the boulder and appeared before Sofus in a flash. “If I’m not mistaken, the bronze mirror you gave us to send messages to each other not only has that function. Most importantly, it could determine our locations. Am I right?”

Hearing Jonathan’s question, Lauryn stiffened momentarily. Bitterness rose in her heart. “I’m most probably right. That explains how you found me every time. With the bronze mirror fragment, it’s pointless for me to hide.” Jonathan chuckled. “Once I realized that, I tied the bronze mirror to a wild boar.”

After entering Summerbank Abyss, Sofus had been the one tricking them. Thus, he felt upset as Jonathan had given him a taste of his own medicine.

Despite his displeasure at having his plan exposed, Sofus remained composed. Tossing Lauryn aside, he stretched out his hand and summoned his axe.

“Back then, my master claimed you were a lucky man and insisted on wasting a pill to save your life. I didn’t understand why he did that. It wasn’t until now that I realized that you’re indeed something. Jonathan, I only need four people. I’ve already captured Bertel and Torkild. I’ll have three if I get Lauryn. Once I get Irving, the mission will be a success. You’re not part of my plan, so I didn’t count you in for the sacrifice. As long as you stay out of this, I’ll release you after the sacrifice ends.”

Sofus made it sound easy. Despite his calm voice, he was obviously threatening Jonathan.

Jonathan’s brows snapped together as he turned to look at Lauryn.

He saw the pleading look and despair in her gaze.

It was natural for Lauryn to hope that Jonathan would save her. No one would want to die.

However, she knew there was no reason for Jonathan to save her. That was nothing more despairing than that realization.

They had just met and didn’t know each other well.

Jonathan’s Asura’s Office was also at odds with the respectable families.

If Lauryn were in Jonathan’s shoes, she would definitely leave without looking back.

Jonathan was also trying to make up his mind.

“Sofus, I came here to find the pill. As long as you promise to let me have the pill and let me leave safely, I don’t care whether these people survive or die,” Jonathan said calmly as Lauryn gazed at him desperately.

Not everyone wanted to be a hero who save lives.

Jonathan wasn’t a fool who’d allow his lust to take over his mind and become a hero to save a damsel in distress.

All he wanted was to get the pill and return home as soon as possible. His aunt’s life was in danger, so nothing was more important than saving her life.

“Smart choice,” Sofus praised with a grin. “Don’t you worry. My master has the life-saving pill. After I’m done here, I’ll deliver the pill to you so you can leave Summerbank Abyss.”

Right after Sofus said that, Lauryn, whose meridians were sealed, yelled, “Jonathan! If you save me, I can collaborate with you to defeat the Osborne family. You need someone who knows the respectable families well to help you.”
