The Legendary Man

When Stellario and Hayden spoke at the same time, their eyes met.

Without any hesitation, they turned on their heels and left, walking in separate directions.

Merilyn was the only person left standing in her original spot, seemingly overwhelmed by this display. Everything the two of them did was very natural and brisk.

Hayden had never accused Stellario of not valuing benevolence or compassion. Stellario, on the other hand, had not claimed that Hayden was indecisive.

Everything was as it should have been.

Stellario and Jonathan’s collaboration was only made possible with Seboxia’s coercion. The main purpose was to keep an eye on each other in the small world so that they could escape together.

When Hayden was outside of the small world, he had plunged himself head-on into the battle at River Onyx to defend Beshya’s borders out of consideration for Joshua’s patriotism.

After this happened, Hades used the Eastern Army’s special missiles as a threat to shield Hayden as well as the Zink family, thus pulling them into the Asura Office faction.

As such, Hayden was now someone associated with Asura’s Office.

Using his capacity as the head of Asura’s Office, Jonathan issued an announcement to the Eight Great Families to defend the Zink family. This kindness was something that Hayden had to repay, even if it cost him his life.

Merilyn glanced around before finally gritting her teeth and rushing off to follow Stellario to the peak.

Hayden, who was still holding his saber, plunged into the thick clouds of dust and smoke below.

When he arrived at Jonathan’s last known location, Hayden thrust his saber into the rock once more.

“Mr. Goldstein, are you still alive? Please respond if you can hear me!”

Hayden repeatedly thrust his saber into the stone wall to descend by a few dozen feet, combing through the area bit by bit.

“Mr. Goldstein?”

Hayden descended once more. Just as he was about to continue on his search, he felt a rope bind itself around his waist before yanking him toward the mountain wall with full force.

In the dark cave, Hayden kept a steady grip on his saber in a downward slashing motion, but he suddenly felt someone’s tight grip on his wrist, preventing him from moving in the slightest.

“It’s me!”
