The Legendary Man

The prison guard gave a start when Jonathan’s voice suddenly rang out.

Turning around frantically, he finally noticed Jonathan and Stellario’s presence.

After pausing for a few seconds, the guard approached Jonathan’s cell.

“Haha, I didn’t expect that old fogey, Lebron, to send someone over so soon.”

While speaking, the prison guard scrutinized Jonathan and Stellario from head to toe.

When his gaze finally fell upon the unconscious Merilyn, an inexplicable glint of contempt flashed across his eyes.

“I suppose the three of you must have been ostracized in the village, isn’t that right? Just look at how skinny you are. Did Lebron send you here just to make up the numbers?”

Lebron?

Jonathan recalled the old man the villagers saw as a sage. Even though he didn’t have any proof, he was sure that the old man was who the prison guard was referring to.

“I knew it. That old man is up to no good,” Stellario murmured.

The prison guard then lashed his whip at the prison bars and asked, “Say, when I brought food here two days ago, this cell was still empty. When were you transferred here? Was it yesterday or today?”

Just as Stellario was about to reply, Jonathan stepped forward and bowed at the prison guard.

“Sir, we were brought here a short while ago and have no idea what’s going on. All we did was kill an outsider and somehow ended up here. Our village sage can vouch for us.”

The guard chuckled at Jonathan’s words before pointing at the writing on the wall.

“Since you have seen the words on the wall, you probably know the reason for your village’s existence. So, what’s the point in bringing up the sage now?”
