I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 365

Chapter 365 The Divine Emperor Decrees

Simon appeared surprised. His expression, too, was unpleasant. Though everything he did was with his brother in mind, there were things in the deep recesses within himself that he did not wish to share with another.

If Elijah were to raise the issue with me, I would slap him in the face before turning around and leaving.

However, he could not do that to Jonathan.

After a moment's silence, Simon looked up. “First of all, we can't deal with members of the Heavenly Rebirth Alliance. Having existed for years, some of its elders have unfathomably deep cultivation. Secondly, even if possible, I won't need your help as I have to be the one to execute it. Thirdly, I hope you will never mention this again. Can you do that for me?”

He was a simple man, whose word was his bond.

There were secrets even amongst brothers, and he did not want another touching what was his.

Lawson's and Jonathan's reactions differed due to their personal traits.

“I'm sorry, Simon,” Jonathan said earnestly upon realizing he had been impulsive. “I will never speak of this again, but I hope you will ask us for help should you ever need it.”

“I will,” Simon promised.

Then, the group began to open up. The atmosphere was somewhat cordial, as Mabel was easygoing.

After a bout of drinking, the group agreed upon a time to begin their journey for the following day.

It was impossible to arrive directly at Eastsummer, Rodunst from Yaleview. It required catching a flight first to Leyrudon, Ustrana, then another from Leyrudon to Rodunst, before finally boarding a train to Eastsummer.

The group exited Royal Well, and Jonathan sent Mabel home in a cab.

To avoid being eavesdropped on, they began conversing in Ustranasian.

The driver understood a little Ustranasian but not enough to have a clue about the more complicated parts of their conversation.

Along the ride, Mabel smiled. “I could tell that Simon and Lesley are more than meets the eye. The three of you aren't as simple as you appear.”

Jonathan's interest was piqued. “Oh?” After a slight pause, he continued, “Simon is decisive. I understand how you might have noticed his innate potential, but Lesley doesn't appear very imposing. How could you tell that about him?”

Mabel laughed. “Is this a test?” After a pause, she continued, “Though Lesley looks meek, he is inwardly strong. Also, he thrives on being cast in a supportive role. If he were alone, he would have the glory and opportunity of his own.”

“I do feel good when I'm around Lesley,” Jonathan realized.

“Right? I have a good eye,” Mabel exclaimed.
