Chapter 244 Rumors Spread

“Simple. Because I used to be their commander,” Jonathan answered calmly.

“You used to be in the army, Jonny? Really?” Alice’s eyes glinted. As a typical girl, she had always worshipped soldiers of any kind.

“That is correct.” Jonathan nodded. “I used to be in the army for a few years, but I eventually retired.”

“Oh, so have you ever met Asura while you were in the army?” Alice’s eyes were shining when she mentioned Asura.

Asura was a living legend among the people of Chanaea, and he was beloved by everyone, including her.

“I did.” Jonathan nodded.

“Wow! That is so cool! So is he a giant like what the legends say? Is he more than seven feet tall? Is he a muscular guy? Did he really kill a billion people? Did he really scare a whole army into submission with a single glance?” Alice was starting to get interested, and she wanted to confirm if the legends were true.

On the other hand, Jonathan looked slightly bemused when she talked about how the legends described him. “Where on earth did you hear those rumors?”

“I heard them from my friends.” Alice stared at the ground sheepishly.

“Those are merely legends. They aren’t true,” Jonathan answered. “Asura is just like any other human. He’s not invincible, so he can get hurt and fall sick like anyone too. Also, he’s only about six feet tall. The legends exaggerated his height a lot.”

“Huh? But that is not possible, right?” Alice looked at him, feeling dubious about what he said. “But everyone says he’s more than seven feet tall, and he’s as strong as a giant. They say he killed a lot of people, and one look from him will strike fear into anyone’s heart.”
