Chapter 626 Fight Until The End
Edenic Heights, No. 2 Villa. Jonathan stood in the living room, staring at Sophia who was in bed. The woman had life-sustaining catheters stuck into almost every part of her body.
On the side, Jason bled so much that the gauze on his chest turned crimson-red. Still, he was casually holding a cold can of beer in his hand. “Jason, are you sure my aunt’s condition is stable now?” inquired Jonathan somewhat helplessly, surrounded by a thick smell of alcohol.
“Of course. Don’t worry, Mr. Goldstein. Ms. Goldstein may not look like it, but her vital signs have stabilized. I can’t do anything about her scar, though. You’ll need to get a plastic surgeon for that,” replied Jason after downing the rest of his beer.
“Thank you.” Jonathan turned around to nod slightly at Jason, who lazily leaned back on the couch.
“You don’t have to thank me, Mr. Goldstein. I would’ve been a dead man if it hadn’t been for you. There’s nothing I want more than to see the day you told me about,” muttered Jason as he looked up at the ceiling.
Jonathan nodded once again. “The respectable families have started making their moves. It may not be a perfect time, but we should take action too.”
Even though Asura’s Office was powerful, there were not many who Jonathan could trust. Besides the Eight Kings of War, only a handful of people knew what was going through Jonathan’s mind.
Jason was one of them. The fact that Jason had saved Jonathan before was enough reason for him to trust the man unconditionally. “Many will die when the respectable families and Asura’s Office go to war,” stated Jason calmly to Jonathan.
“True,” responded Jonathan in his deep voice. “Many will die indeed. Even you and I might not make it back alive.”
“That’s fine. We all die eventually. If I can take those people with me to the grave, it’ll be worth it.” The two were still talking when they heard a voice from outside.
As soon as Jonathan turned around, he saw Harry at the door. “Mr. Goldstein, I bring you the latest battle report from Mysonna.”
“Speak!” “Yes, Sir.” Harry straightened his back and saluted. “Mysonna has successfully captured more than seventy-three thousand West Region soldiers. They’re waiting for your orders, Mr. Goldstein.”
Still lying on the couch, Jason smiled and slowly shut his eyes after hearing about Mysonna’s victory. On the other hand, Jonathan furrowed his eyebrows at Harry. “Orders? Why the heck are they waiting for my orders?”
When Harry heard those words, his smile immediately faded away. “Mr. Goldstein… I believe Tiger and the others want to know what to do with the captives…”
“What’s there to do?” questioned Jonathan.
Harry then fell silent, afraid to respond to the man.
After glancing at Harry, Jonathan walked outside. “Call Tiger for me at the command center. Let’s see what he decides to do with the seventy over thousand captives.”
“Yes, Sir!” responded Harry loudly before running straight to the command center.
There, Jonathan gazed at the three figures on the large screen.
They were Hayes Yeager, acting Commander of the Mysonna Army, Kane Dunst, the Thunder King of War of the Shusonna Army, and Jeremy Yates, the Western King of War of the Zaidham Army.
Jonathan had ordered the Shusonna Army and the Zaidham Army to each send seventy thousand men to provide support in Mysonna. However, he did not expect Kane and Jeremy to take the opportunity and lead their own armies to attack their enemies.
Seeing how bloodied the three were, Jonathan knitted his eyebrows tightly. “Kane and Jeremy, you two left the fief without permission, so you’re to receive eighty lashes when you return to base.”
