Chapter 92 Performing Tasks
Although Jonathan did learn more about himself, he still felt unsure about what he truly wanted. He did
not know what kind of a spiritual fighter he was or what martial arts meant to him.
Jonathan did not have an intense desire to be stronger or become the top master in the world.
He had always accepted things as they were and felt indifferent toward events that happened. For him,
living a carefree life and being happy mattered the most.
That perspective toward life kept Jonathan stagnant at the peak phase of practicing Neutralizing Force
for three years.
Undoubtedly, he was a genius in martial arts and had an unparalleled fighting strategy. Moreover, he
achieved Peak Neutralizing Force at the age of twenty-one, which many found shocking and terrific.
Mabel had just achieved the Neutralizing Force level when she was twenty-one, while Leonardo got it
at twenty-three. The significant age disparity between them and Jonathan when attaining Neutralizing
Force showcased the vast difference in their abilities compared to his.
Jonathan pondered hard for a few moments, yet his mind remained blank. He sighed softly and
decided to move on from there. One of his best qualities was his easygoingness. He was not stubborn
at all. Instead, he went with the flow and freed himself of any burdens.
Mabel was surprised to see Jonathan out of the fog so soon. She then offered him some vague yet
encouraging words. “Destiny is the only thing that matters at the Nascent Soul level. If something is
within your fate, everything else will only be a matter of time.”
Jonathan smiled. “Thank you, Mabel, for your guidance.”
Mabel returned his smile with one of her own and said, “Destino arts is the legacy of Chanaea.
Sophisticated technology is everywhere, and firearms are common in this contemporary world. Destino
Art will eventually lose its significance one day, and we, spiritual fighters, can no longer be self-
contented like our predecessors.
Jonathan agreed with her point of view. He paused before replying, “Mabel, I doubt you came here this
time just to thank me in person.”
A faint grin curved on Mabel’s face. “I enjoy having conversations with intelligent people like you.
Although, we, Sixth Division, have you to thank for helping to get Zachary arrested. He’s created a lot
of trouble internationally and is good at concealing himself from our investigation. It would be a shame
for us if we didn’t manage to bring this man to justice. Your assistance in taking him captive was of
tremendous help to our division.”
Jonathan chuckled and replied, “Does that mean I demand a reward for my contributions?”
“Absolutely! You can make any request, and I’ll try to fulfill it as long as it’s within my abilities.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Hmm, you seem to have significant authority over others within the sixth division.”
Upon hearing that, Mabel snapped, “Oh, quit acting! I’m sure you’ve already figured out my identity.”
“Damn! So you really are the chief of the sixth division?” asked Jonathan.
She rolled her eyes at him. “Do I not look the part?”
He responded, “I didn’t know that one can become the chief at such a young age.”
“The sixth division is full of chaos. Thus, older bureaucrats and officials can’t handle the post as well
someone younger.”
“That’s fair enough.”
“Anyways, you haven’t told me what reward you would like,” Mabel asked, getting the conversation
back on track.
Jonathan was thrilled to hear that. He asked if she was serious and if he could really name anything he
wanted.
A gentle smile spread across Mabel’s face. “Well, as long as your request isn’t anything extreme or
bizarre, I’ll try my best to fulfill your wish.”
That garnered an amused chuckle from Jonathan. “Don’t worry. I’m not interested in money. How about
you get me a spy camera? The kind of gadget that James Bond carries around?”
“That’s it?” Mabel asked doubtfully.
“That’s it,” Jonathan confirmed.
“Are you planning something bad?” she questioned.
Jonathan was slightly irritated at first but defended himself in confidence, “Nope. I would never do
anything bad. I’m merely curious about that little gadget, is all.” That was how resilient he had always
been.
Mabel did not chew over his intentions. Trusting him, she replied, “All right, sure. But getting that
camera is not a big deal. Consider it as a gift from me. You can still name another request.”
Those words baffled Jonathan. He scratched his head and stated, “To be frank, I have no idea what to
ask of you.”
It was the first time Mabel saw a carefree man like Jonathan, who was free from selfish desires. She
decided not to force the reward on him and came up with an alternative solution. “All right, then. We,
Sixth Division, owe you a favor. I’ll give you my number. This way, you can contact me if you need
anything in the future.”
Jonathan grinned as he replied, “Nice!”
The two then exchanged phone numbers. However, Mabel also warned him not to give her number
away to others, to which Jonathan promised to do as told.
She later added, “There’s something else that I hope to confirm with you.”
That instantly caught Jonathan’s attention, so he asked, “What’s the matter?”
“I asked Amber earlier, but she did not give me a clear answer. Can you clarify the Great Tribulation
and explain the rumor about you being the Chosen One?”
“You knew about this too?” Jonathan asked in a shocked tone.
With a bitter smile, Mabel explained, “Jonathan, I’m sure you’re aware that Crimson Onyx Sect is not
an obscure clan. The country’s fate is of utmost importance to the government. Thus, we know about
that sect’s abilities to foresee the future. We’re also acquainted with what they’ve foretold about our
country. Otherwise, we would be useless leaders to this country.”
Fair enough. Jonathan shrugged after listening to that. He replied, “I have nothing to add since you
already know about the Great Tribulation. However, I can confirm that I’m indeed the Chosen One.
Gabriel himself told me.”
Subsequently, Jonathan continued revealing things that happened at Crimson Onyx Sect in detail,
including his acquisition of the Supreme Nascent Pill from Master Yarrow.
Jonathan shared everything without concealment because he was fond of Mabel. He would not even
bother to elaborate this much if anyone else had asked him.
“You indeed live up to the reputation of being the Chosen One,” Mabel commented. “Gabriel used to be
against you in every way. Yet, you managed to get him on your side now. He’s not an ordinary person.
The ninth division once tried to locate him using mysticism, but he blocked their attempt.”
“The ninth division?” Jonathan inquired curiously.
The corners of Mabel’s lips curved as she clarified, “The Ninth Division is in charge of foreseeing the
country’s future. They function similarly to royal astrologers from ancient times.”
Jonathan’s jaw dropped in shock.
It was then that Mabel’s words took a drastic turn. “Jonathan, I’m sorry to tell you this, but I did look into
your background and what you did overseas before I came here. I hope you don’t hold it against me.”
That bewildered Jonathan even more. He was not a petty person. Even though he was slightly
annoyed, he held his temper and grinned. “Were you checking to see if I’m a good guy?”
“It was because I wanted you to join us in the sixth division, so I had to be cautious. After thorough
scrutiny, everyone in my division agrees that you’re an excellent candidate. Now, I would like to invite
you to join our division. Officially.”
Jonathan raised an eyebrow while scoffing. “Thanks for your invitation. But sadly, I’m a man of my own,
and I don’t like restrictions.”
His decline gave Mabel a headache. She said, “We aren’t going to restrict your lifestyle. You will merely
get summoned when there are tasks. Apart from that, you’re free to do anything with your time.
Moreover, you get to enjoy the privileges of working at the sixth division.”
“I don’t need privileges,” Jonathan rebuked without a second thought.
Mabel felt helpless at that moment. Nevertheless, she continued, “I know you’re currently at odds with
the disciples from Strikezone Martial Arts. If you join the sixth division, we can help bury the hatchet
between you and them.”
Jonathan’s eyes glistened for a second. Then, he paused to think carefully before deciding not to
involve himself with the sixth division. He hated from the bottom of his heart to live within restraints and
rules, so he replied, “Nah, forget it!”
Upon hearing that, Mabel no longer insisted. She smiled wryly and said, “Pity. I was looking forward to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmworking alongside you, but I guess we aren’t fated to become colleagues.”
Those words triggered doubt in Jonathan, and he imagined how nice it would be to go on missions with
Mabel, especially if they got ordered to pretend as a couple.
However, he dismissed the thought shortly as it was not worth sacrificing his freedom.
“Well, if you ever have a change of heart, bear in mind that you can always give me a call. You’re
always welcome to join the sixth division.”
Jonathan did not turn her down entirely. Instead, he gave a vague reply, “All right.”
It was then that Mabel stood up and suggested to leave the place.
Jonathan complied, sending her back to her hotel.
Before Mabel walked into her hotel, she turned and told Jonathan, “I’ll make sure the item you
requested gets sent to you in 3 days.”
Delight swelled in Jonathan’s chest, but he remained calm on the surface as he thanked her.
Then, Mabel bade farewell to Jonathan before entering the building.
As the latter watched her disappear from his sight, he secretly admired her from behind. Her alluring
figure and bodily curves were heart-stirring. It gave Jonathan the urge to pinch her playfully.
Of course, Jonathan would never do it in real life, as he needed to put on a gentlemanly act in front of
the cold and elegant Mabel. He could only imagine what her body felt like in his mind.
Some time passed before Jonathan eventually returned to his rented home. He told Jennifer that he
had found a new place, and they could move there as soon as they wanted.
Now that Jonathan had the spy camera sorted out, he thought they might as well move earlier.
Jennifer was thrilled at the news. However, Jonathan did not mention that the place belonged to Polly
because he did not want to make Jennifer feel awkward.
The next day, Jonathan contacted the relocation company and started moving their furniture.
After a whole day of work, he and Jennifer finally settled down in their new home.
Polly’s house was brand-new and clean, so Jennifer and Jonathan did not have to do much cleaning.
Their bedrooms were just next to each other, and they would use a shared bathroom while living
together.
That was enough to excite Jonathan.
When the clock struck eight, Jennifer had prepared dinner and placed the dishes on the table. She then
had an enjoyable meal with Jonathan.
After that, she went to take a shower.
Jonathan instinctively thought of peeping on her, but he soon realized they had moved to a new place,
so he was unsure if there were any openings or cracks where he could watch her. It seemed like he
had to wait a few more days before he could come up with a solution.
Jennifer wore a conservative set of pajamas after her bath. Water dripped down her hair, and she
seemed remarkedly sexy to Jonathan. “Put your clothes into the washing machine later. I’ll wash them
all together,” Jennifer stated. She then realized what she had just said, and her face blushed fervently.
On the other hand, Jonathan agreed without hesitation and hurried to the bathroom.
He mischievously behaved after entering the room. In the middle of his shower, he opened up the
cover of the washing machine and ogled Jennifer’s lingerie.
