The Legendary Man Chapter 853-“Dad!” The sorrowful cry of a boy reverberated in the night sky.
When Jonathan turned around, he saw Layla staring at him in the distance while pulling Killian.
Killian was only seven years old. In the past, he could only meet his father a few times a year.
After Jonathan rescued him and his mother from Remdik with the help of seven respectable families, he spent a month with Karl—the longest time they had spent together.
During that month, Karl basically agreed to every request Killian had.
It was also the first time Killian genuinely felt the warmth of having his father’s company.
Yet, at that moment, Karl was lying lifelessly on the snow.
Killian flung Layla’s hand away and bolted in Jonathan’s direction.
Sobbing, the boy pounced toward Karl’s body. “Wake up, Daddy!”
However, Jonathan restricted him with spiritual energy before he could touch his father.
“You’re a bad guy!” Killian continued to scream while suspended in midair. “I’m going to kill you and avenge Daddy! I’ll kill you!”
“Sure.” In response, Jonathan pulled out a dagger and tossed it into Killian’s hand with spiritual energy before laying the latter on the ground.
“Come and kill me!” Jonathan uttered calmly with his hands behind his back.
With the dagger in hand, the boy charged toward Jonathan and stabbed the latter’s leg.
Bam!
At the moment of his attack, he bumped into Jonathan’s spirit shield.
As a result, the dagger flew out of Killian’s hand, cutting his arm as he stumbled backward. Before he stood back up, his arm was already a bloody mess.
“Kilian!” Layla scrambled toward her son, intending to carry him, but Jonathan restricted her movements with his spiritual energy.
“Mr. Goldstein!” Hayes rushed forward, wanting to stop Jonathan, but couldn’t even take a step forward when the latter shot him a cold glare.
“Do you think no one can support Eastern Army if you and Karl die, Tiger?” spat Jonathan.
“Mr. Goldstein…” Hayes grimaced as he was enveloped in a stinging murderous intent.
After hesitating for a moment, he stepped back.
Then, with gritted teeth and tightened fists, he stated, “Karl may have deserved death, but his wife and child are innocent, Mr. Goldstein.”
Ignoring Hayes, Jonathan picked up the dagger and tossed it toward Killian again. “Didn’t you say you want to kill me? What’s the matter? Is a minor injury all it takes to scare you?”
“I’m not afraid!” Swiftly, Killian stood and picked up the dagger next to his foot.
“I’m going to avenge Daddy!” As he shouted, he charged toward Jonathan once more.
However, Jonathan didn’t even use spiritual energy to protect himself. With his physical strength and toughness alone, he blocked the dagger.
Astonished, Killian stared at Jonathan as he kept stabbing the latter’s thigh with his bleeding right hand.
