Chapter 623 Definition Of A True Hero

“So you think Jonathan is the one who will change and shape the future of Chanaea?” Colton said in a deep voice. When he said it, he did not bother avoiding Jonathan. He spoke as if Lauryn and himself were the only ones present.

“I don’t know. But if Jonathan made a move against the respectable families one day, I might end up being the only thing the Blackwood family could depend on,” Lauryn calmly said as she turned toward Jonathan.

As she spoke, Colton, too, turned toward Jonathan, and the smile on Jonathan’s face had Colton shaking his head. “I don’t get it. You came from a respectable family and studied in an ancient sect. There are so many talented and outstanding men out there. Why him?”

The smile on Jonathan’s face froze instantly upon his words, and he shouted, “Hey! That’s not very nice. Are you trying to say that I, Jonathan Goldstein, the Asura with a massive army under his command, don’t deserve Lauryn?”

Although everyone knew that Jonathan was merely joking, Colton couldn’t help but sneer, “Jonathan, you should know that your army may or may not be a threat to the respectable families.”

“Oh? Go on.” Jonathan smiled.

“The reason your army is dangerous is because of its size. They may be ordinary folks, but when equipped with weapons, they can easily lead the respectable families to their deaths.” Colton chuckled. “The problem, however, lies within you. You are not a true hero.”

“Please. Entertain me with your definition of a true hero.”

“To me, Joshua and Wilbur are the definitions of a true hero,” Colton replied calmly. “Suppose you have the coordinates of the respectable families and a weapon of mass destruction. Would you still use the weapon of mass destruction that definitely would wipe out the entire region around the coordinates?”

“Joshua and Wilbur would. They would do it because that’s the most effective and efficient way. Jonathan, you are a man held back by your concerns, and these concerns will eventually kill you. Here’s another question for you. What if these respectable families held someone hostage while being hunted down? Would you disregard
