Chapter 563 Everlasting Love
Richard seemed somewhat discomposed, the shock of seeing Sovereign Mirror was simply too overwhelming.
Jonathan, however, appeared calm. After some time, Richard finally asked him, “Jonathan, do you know what this magic item is?”
Jonathan wasn't surprised. He said, “This is Sovereign Mirror!”
Richard asked, “Do you know the wonderful use of Sovereign Mirror?” Jonathan replied, “It can create an illusion of one's body, and transform the corporeal body!”
“Anything else?” asked Richard.
Jonathan couldn't help but wonder, “Does it have any other uses?” Richard couldn't help but smile as he replied, “Silly boy, Sovereign Mirror is a treasure from ancient times, so it could not have this function. However, this magic item has many other functions. Once it's used to its full potential, it can harness sovereign spiritual energy, which can transform into the most powerful sword aura, killing enemies invisibly. Moreover, Sovereign Mirror can truly replicate a person's body, strength, and so on. However, it can only last for ten seconds, within which, it is controlled by Sovereign Mirror!”
“Is it really that impressive?” Jonathan couldn't help but express his surprise. This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
Richard smiled faintly, then handed Sovereign Mirror back to Jonathan. “Keep it safe. You may not be able to unlock its mysteries now, but there will come a day when you will need it.”
But Jonathan refused to take it, so he asked, “Master, if this item is so useful, why don't you keep it for
yourself, instead of telling me about it? Aren't you tempted at all?”
Richard was slightly taken aback, then he said, “You treat me with sincerity, so how could I deceive you in return? How could I possibly do such a thing? If I could really do that, then I wouldn't be worthy of being your master!”
Jonathan deeply bowed to Richard, and said, “I have already given the mirror to you, Master, and I will not take it back.” He paused before continuing, “Now that Divine Emperor has left, the entire Divine Realm no longer has the deterrence of Divine Emperor's might. Therefore, the rest of the masters, including Tristan, will surely make their moves. Master, you are very straightforward, and I can't always be by your side. The situation is rather dangerous, and if you have Sovereign Mirror, you will have a bit more assurance. Even if you are not guaranteed to win, you can still stand on an invincible ground!”
Richard looked deeply into Jonathan's eyes and said, “As the master of Luminary Vessel, it's true that several masters coveted the vessel. Hence, Sovereign Mirror helped to increase my confidence.”
Jonathan said, “So, you must accept it!”
Richard laughed and said, “Well then, I cannot refuse such a treasure indeed.”
Jonathan also smiled.
Richard said, “Please, have a seat.”
Jonathan replied, “Yes, Master!” Richard asked, “What are your plans next?”
Jonathan said, “I don't have a specific plan, so I'm taking it one step at a time. Most importantly, I want
to improve my cultivation as soon as possible.”
Richard said, “It's a pity that your cultivation level can't be improved by relying on consuming elixir pill alone. Otherwise, once the master leaves, I, as the one in charge of Luminary Vessel, could provide you with some conveniences!”
After a moment of contemplation, Jonathan said, “Master, I've suddenly realized that the elixir pill might not be the most important thing after all.”
Richard asked, “Oh, why did you say that?”
Jonathan said, “I always feel that the nourishment provided by the elixir pill is too limited. The further we go in our cultivation, the more elixir pills we need. Yet, the process of refining the pills is too difficult. However, Divine Emperor can rely on a single energy gem to provide you with thirty years of nourishment. This is truly incredible.”
Richard was slightly taken aback, then he continued, “Energy gems are indeed very magical, but none of us know where to find them. For now, we can only rely on the elixir pills!”
Jonathan said, “You're not wrong in what you say!”
After a casual chat, Jonathan stood up to take his leave.
Richard then said, “If you ever encounter an insurmountable obstacle, don't forget that within Divine Realm, your master will always have your back!”
A warm current surged from the bottom of Jonathan's heart.
Richard indeed demonstrated a remarkable personal charm. Hence, Jonathan truly respected Richard from the bottom of his heart!
In the evening, Jonathan returned to Sunny Condo.
He fell asleep in the bedroom. The bed seemed to still carry Catherine's lingering scent, and only when Jonathan lay on it did he feel a faint sense of security.
At this moment, Jonathan harbored an extraordinary desire for power. He wished he possessed the strength to reach the heavens so that he could heal Catherine.
Regrettably, the power to reach the heavens would not suddenly descend from above. It must be achieved through one's efforts one step at a time.
“What should I do?” Jonathan lay in bed, pondering how he should work hard.
What's the use of having countless subordinates, even those who are fiercely loyal? Can I vie to conquer the world?
But what's the point of that?
The most important thing for me is to enhance my strength to save Catherine!
Jonathan made up his mind. He would return to Eastsummer tomorrow, and then begin to draw blood, constantly enhancing his combat force.
I should not worry about the matter of Destino Fruit for now. At the very least, I should focus on reaching the ninth level of Immortal Stage. Only after that, should we consider the issue of condensing Destino Fruit!
Soon, Jonathan fell asleep.
In his dream, he saw Catherine return to his side, as beautiful and aloof as ever.
Overwhelmed with joy, Jonathan embraced her, kissing her passionately. The kiss was incredibly sweet.
In the sweetest of moments, Jonathan suddenly jolted awake.
Jonathan sat up and looked around him. All was darkness, and he found himself alone.
Suddenly, a wave of melancholy surged from the depths of his heart.
Tears welled up in Jonathan's eyes, and he was no longer able to hold them back.
The next morning, Jonathan continued to pay homage to Divine Emperor.
Considering that Divine Emperor had already departed, Richard no longer brought up the request for Jonathan to become a master. After all, it was impossible for Divine Emperor to respond now. Given the current complex situation, it was better to have fewer issues to deal with.
All the masters proceeded with the worship!
Even though Divine Emperor was no longer present, no one would leak this news, as it concerned everyone's mutual interest.
Jonathan, Beatrix, and Gregory stood together and waited.
Suddenly, Gregory said to Jonathan, “By the way, Jonathan I heard something from Beatrix.”
Jonathan glanced at Gregory, then asked with utmost respect, “Oh, what have you heard?”
Gregory said, “She mentioned that you have a magical mirror, incredibly powerful and mysterious. I wonder if you could allow me to take a look!”
Jonathan couldn't help but glance at Beatrix. Beatrix apologized slightly, saying, “Gregory is not an outsider, so I leaked that information unintentionally.”
“You're not one to have a loose tongue!” Jonathan said with a faint smile.
Gregory's expression turned peculiar, he then said, “It seems that you are unwilling, then let's take it that I never mentioned it!”
“It's not that I don't want to show you!” Jonathan said, “I've already given that mirror to Master. If you want to see it, you can go and ask Master!” He didn't want to mention Sovereign Mirror in public, so he deliberately referred to it as 'that mirror'.
If word gets out about Sovereign Mirror, I'm afraid it could cause a lot of trouble!
Beatrix was also taken aback, and said, “You gave it to Master? You really had the heart to part with it?”
With an air of nonchalance, Jonathan said, “No matter how precious that mirror might be, it's useless to me if I can't use it. Hence, I have nothing to regret.”
With a laugh, Beatrix couldn't help but tease, “You cheeky brat, you're really carefree!”
Jonathan also smiled.
After paying his respects, Jonathan returned to Sunny Condo. He planned to pack up his things, bid farewell to Richard, and then leave this place.
At that moment, Beatrix came over.
Beatrix went straight to Jonathan's bedroom. When she entered, she saw Jonathan on the bed, searching for a strand of Catherine's hair.
This action left Beatrix dumbfounded, and for some reason, her eyes welled up with tears.
Jonathan carefully placed the strands of hair into the sachet. Then, he turned to look at Beatrix, gave a slight smile and said, “Beatrix, why are you crying for no reason? You weren't such a sentimental person before!”
Beatrix turned her back, wiping the corner of her eye. When she turned around again, she said, “I never realized that you're such a sentimental person.”
Jonathan carefully put away the sachet, then said, “I don't know where Catherine has gone, or if she will ever return. All I want is to find something that can at least keep her memory alive.”
Beatrix fell silent for a moment, then said, “Catherine will definitely be fine. She is a chosen one just like you. I believe she won't be in any danger.”
Jonathan laughed and said, “I'll take your good words!”
Beatrix glanced over and noticed Jonathan packing up his things. She asked, “Are you planning to leave Divine Realm?”
Jonathan said, “That's right. I am heading back to Eastsummer!”
Beatrix said, “I'll send you off!”
Jonathan nodded, saying, “Alright!”
Afterward, Jonathan went to bid farewell to Richard. Then, Beatrix drove Jonathan to the airport.
In the car, Jonathan said, “The current situation in Divine Realm is particularly complex. Tristan, Gideon, and Oswald have no good intentions. You need to be extra cautious when you're with Master. If you encounter anything strange, remember to call and ask me.”
Beatrix nodded and said, “You're the cleverest. If you were in Divine Realm, we wouldn't fear those people at all.”
With a faint bitter smile, Jonathan said, “I have things I want to do, so I really can't stay inside.”
Beatrix said, “I understand, so I was just saying it!”
Jonathan said, “By the way, why did you suddenly mention Sovereign Mirror to Gregory? I know your lips are tight, and you wouldn't let something slip.”
Beatrix was slightly taken aback, then said, “Gregory is very interested in you, and he also knows about your affairs in Eastsummer. He brought up the matter of Sovereign Mirror himself, saying he was very interested in it, and asked if it was with you. I couldn't lie to him, so I could only confirm it.”
Jonathan said, “That's quite strange. Although I've made a bit of a name for myself in Eastsummer, it was just in that place. Yet, Gregory seems to know so much about me. It's very peculiar.”
“There's nothing strange about it,” Beatrix said. “Gregory grew up with me, and he's a very loyal person. Don't overthink it. He might have learned about it unintentionally through some channel.”
Jonathan was not familiar with Gregory. He said, “I didn't have much of an impression of him before, but now, I feel he's somewhat unreliable. However, it's just my feeling.”
“You're overthinking it,” said Beatrix.
Jonathan then said, “I hope so!”
