Chapter 113
The Jetroinians flipped the table aggressively, turning the scene chaotic in an instant.
The sounds of smashing plates and cups disrupted the peace of the restaurant.
Yano, Hiroshi, and another bodyguard named Watari Yuuta wore fierce expressions. Only Braxtonremained indifferent as if he had nothing to do with the situation.
Meanwhile, battle lust shone within the eyes of the young man, Skyler. He gave Jonathan a tauntinggaze as though all of this was done for the latter.
Skyler was a hyper-energetic, ferocious beast that thought about tearing others apart at all times.
Jonathan and Polly were sensitive enough to pick up his provocation immediately.
However, the restaurant manager had come out to mediate before they could step forward.
The restaurant manager was a beautiful woman named Laura Leighton, seemingly in her thirties. Shewore a black suit as she approached them with a charismatic smile.
Laura glanced at Braxton's group and apologized sincerely, “I'm very sorry for our careless service thatcaused your dissatisfaction. Please accept our sincere apology.”
“Your dishes are too expensive,” Yuuta spat. He spoke in broken Chanaean, but it was coherent atleast. “You're feeding us like livestock because we're Jetroinians!” Jonathan had used Chanaean toinsult them previously, but Yuuta and Yano did not understand him.
Laura froze for a moment before swiftly understanding what was going on. She quickly replied, “Wetake our business integrity very seriously. It is impossible for us to scam our esteemed guests. Not tomention, our prices are stated clearly. You can look at the wall if you don't believe us.”
The Jetroinians looked over and saw a menu hanging on the wall.
Immediately, they stiffened, knowing that this was their mistake. Unexpectedly, Skyler sneered, “Youstupid pig! This menu is specifically for foreigners, while they have another menu. We've been toFerropene restaurants before, and their food has never been this expensive. You're clearly trying to ripus off.”
Yuuta, Yano, and Hiroshi were shocked by the revelation. Being the most hot-headed one, Hiroshi wasthe first to speak up. “Motherf*cker! We will not pay for this. Let's go.”
He led the way, and the others followed behind him. Laura blanched upon seeing that. This was herfirst time encountering customers like them in all her years working in this restaurant. The customersthat came to this restaurant were commonly well-known people who were cautious and valued theirreputation.
She hastily blocked Hiroshi's path and insisted, “Please pay your bills, sir.”
He scoffed, “Pay, my ass! Get out of my way.” With that, he deliberately pushed her aside, crudeenough to have placed his hand on her chest.
Laura was shoved away as she could not react in time. Feeling an aching pain in her chest, she losther balance, staggered a few steps back, and fell onto the floor.
A server, who was watching from the side, was too afraid to stop them.
Right then, Jonathan stood up and shouted at them.
Hiroshi's group immediately turned to look at him. Hiroshi despised Jonathan to the bone, but he didnot know how to speak Chanaean, so he could only curse under his breath in Jetroinese.
Jonathan knew Ustranasian but not Jetroinese. As a result, he did not understand what Hiroshi said.
Regardless, Hiroshi seemed like he was speaking badly about them. Besides, Jonathan would still feellike Hiroshi was mocking him even if the latter were speaking with a smile. Jonathan uttereddisdainfully, “I don't know what you idiots are talking about. Get lost.”
Hiroshi asked Yuuta, who stood beside him, “What did he say?”
Yuuta also could not understand Jonathan because he was speaking too fast.
Skyler quickly translated for Hiroshi, “He called you an idiot and told you to scram.”
Infuriated, Hiroshi wanted to rush forward to fight Jonathan.
Suddenly, Skyler added calmly, “He'll beat you up if you go.”
Hiroshi then froze, feeling glum.
“Let's go,” Skyler said.
Then, he turned to leave with a group of people following behind him.
Jonathan could not hold it in anymore, and he taunted, “Let's settle this once and for all. Where do youguys live? If you don't pay your bills today, I guarantee you won't be able to participate in the GoldenSword Tournament, and you'll be detained for a year and a half.”
He was confident in himself.
After he finished, Braxton and the others halted in their tracks.
They turned around and looked at Jonathan. Skyler's glare was filled with murderous intent.
Jonathan did not have a good temper, to begin with. Hence, he smirked and jeered, “F*ck! Why do youkeep looking at me, you sicko? Are you gay?”
Unexpectedly, Skyler was not enraged. He sneered, “I know who you are, Jonathan Lawson. Yourname is on the list for the competition too.”
Jonathan chuckled. “So what?”
Skyler licked his lips as hostility flashed across his eyes. Then, he approached Jonathan.
The atmosphere was tense as Skyler walked over.
Jessica, Yasmin, and Amber promptly sensed the dangerous aura, and they subconsciously hid behindJonathan and Polly.
Polly stared at Skyler coldly, whereas Skyler remained unbothered.
He fixed his eyes on Jonathan as he stood before the latter. Abruptly, he grinned and threatened, “I'llkill you at the Golden Sword Tournament.”
With that said, he turned to leave.
Jonathan was aware of Skyler's murderous intent.
Despite that, he did not mind it, for there were too many people after his life, anyway. Skyler wasmerely another addition, so Jonathan did not continue bickering with him as long as the former paid hisbills.
Skyler regrouped with Braxton and the others before ordering Hiroshi, “Pay them.”
Hiroshi was reluctant, but he could only obey Skyler.
They swiftly left the restaurant after paying for their meal.
Jessica and the other ladies were immediately slightly worried. Amber asked, “Will there be trouble,Jonathan?”
He rolled his eyes and answered, “Of course not. Moreover, there are no do-overs in the Golden SwordTournament.”
“Can you handle him, then?” she asked again.
Jonathan remained unconcerned. “He's on the same level as me. Regardless, I have never been afraidof anyone.”
Polly then shot him a look. He quickly laughed aloud and clarified, “Other than Polly, of course.”
She smiled faintly. “Ha! Please! I know how strong you are. Your fighting skills are transcendent. Itwould be hard to win against you without breaking through Nascent Soul.”
Jonathan chuckled sheepishly.
The three ladies finally felt at ease after hearing the conversation.
Just then, the person in charge of the restaurant came out to thank them, but Jonathan's group did notquite mind it. In the end, the restaurant gave them some freebies and a gold card.
Thereafter, the group exited the restaurant.
Next, Yasmin and the ladies went to take a walk around Fairlake while Jonathan and Polly went to theorganizing committee of the tournament to check in.
The tournament's organizing committee was located on an underground battlefield in the suburbs nearFairlake. This would also be the venue for the competition itself.
Donovan drove the duo to the location once more.
As it took some time to reach the suburbs, they finally arrived at the said battlefield an hour later.
The battlefield was built similar to a stadium, but the interior was not as spacious.
The place was surrounded by farmland and residents, which made it peaceful and quiet.
On top of the cheap land, its location was pretty secluded. After all, an underground battle was anillegal event.
There were numerous white, modern-looking two-story bungalows in the stadium.
In front of the stadium was a driveway, where countless luxurious cars were parked right then.
After Jonathan's group parked their car, they walked toward the stadium.
At the forefront of the stadium was an enormous foyer. When they entered, there were specialized staffto check their invitation and lead them in.
The organizing committee was in the office on the second floor.
Jonathan and Polly quickly arrived at the grand and spacious office.
What surprised them was that Morgan was there too. In addition, there were two older men, namelyRowan, who Jonathan had met before, and Julian Cook of Coldbridge.
The three elderly were in charge of the reception.
Morgan stood up delightfully after the two came in and said, “You're finally here, Master Lawson and
Master McDaniels.”
Jonathan did not tell Morgan about Strikezone Martial Arts' inside info, nor did he allow Jessica to say.There was no need for Morgan to feel troubled, as Jonathan could solve the problem by himself.
Jonathan and Polly greeted, “Hello, Master Hayes.”
Everyone introduced themselves and greeted each other.
Soon after, Jonathan and Polly officially checked in. They were about to head back when two youngmen entered the room.
They were Julian's grandson, Hector, and the heir of the Green Clan, Stephen, respectively.
Both of them were in their thirties, but they still looked healthy and young from practicing martial arts.
Hector wore a white button-up coat, making him look refined. This was the result of practicing ShadowPunch to its limits. Meanwhile, Stephen's abilities were evident to the eye.
When Hector and Stephen came in, Julian said, “What great timing, you two. Let me introduce you tosome youngsters. This is Jonathan Lawson, and that is Polly McDaniels.”
Hector smiled courtly and greeted them with the same degree of reverence. “Nice to meet you, MasterLawson and Master McDaniels.”
In truth, everyone had seen the participants' photos from the name list, thus having deep impressionsof each other. After all, anyone could be one's opponent.
Stephen also gave them his greetings, to which Jonathan and Polly responded humbly.
Everyone got along well as all of them were around the same age.
Right then, Stephen suggested, “Why don't we replace a place to sit down, drink some alcohol, and talkabout martial arts? What do you guys say?”
A martial artist's favorite thing was meeting friends through martial arts.
Jonathan and Polly exchanged looks before the former answered, “We couldn't agree more.”
