I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 170

The first thing Jonathan did after leaving the river was to take a deep breath, which instantly made him feel so much better—the feeling he had been waiting for.

Yareth and Bruce had been watching him by the shore. At that moment, Yareth smiled and asked, “How are you feeling?”

He spoke in a very soft voice, yet Jonathan could hear it clearly.

Jonathan replied, “I don't think I can feel the subtlety of syllables yet, but I think I sense its usage.”

Nodding, Yareth praised, “Good, good.”

“I'll continue my practice.” With that, Jonathan took in a deep breath and dove all the way to the very bottom.

He pushed aside all the pain he was experiencing, whether from the cold or the lack of oxygen.

Still, he could not spell out all the syllables and transform them into strength because his lung was not powerful enough.

He had to keep training in order to make his lungs powerful enough to spell everything out in the water.

Two hours later, he felt as if his head was getting dizzy.

After he resurfaced, Yareth said, “All right, that's enough for today, Jonathan. Come up.”

“Yes, Grandpa,” Jonathan replied before getting on the shore.

The moment that he did, a gust of chill wind blew past him, almost freezing him on the spot.

Thankfully, he had learned how to close the pores on his body, so he could still endure it.

“Come on, let's go home,” Yareth stated before going into the car.

Jonathan followed behind him.

Bruce was the one driving them back to the Harrington mansion.

On the way back, Yareth did not ask Jonathan a thing about his training.

hence, Jonathan remained silent and simply enjoyed the ride.

Half an hour later, Yareth thought of something and smiled. “Don't you think this world is interesting, Jonathan?”

Jonathan was taken aback as he did not know why the old man said that.

Yareth continued, “The world nourishes humans. Humans need air, so there's air. Humans need food, so there's food. Humans need to work and run, they get hands and legs. All things, including animals, have their own way of life. Everything is linked together until a complete ecosystem is formed. The circle of life. It's as though everything was beautifully designed. The fish can breathe in the water, and the birds can fly in the sky.” There was a pause before he continued, “But, in the end, humans are the king of this world. The favored beings of the heavens.”

Jonathan listened silently.

“For example, the more a bug is exposed to a drug, the more resistant it'll become to it. Put a polar bear in a warm climate. If it can't adapt, it'll die. The only way to survive is to change their body to suit the climate. What I'm saying is that we have an awesome biological system that helps us adapt to things. If that adaption is done well, we'll be able to breathe underwater or fly in the air. It isn't necessarily impossible. It all depends on how the environment forces a person to change.”

“So you're saying evolution? Humans and animals do evolve.” Jonathan was starting to understand.

Yareth smiled. “That's right. So, when you're practicing in the water, your body will possibly evolve to adapt to living underwater. That evolution will first improve your lung and increase its strength. Your vitality will also be improved under these circumstances. The greater the pressure, the more it'll grow. Of course, if you fail to endure it, you'll die.”

“I understand now, Grandpa!”

“Continue your training well.”

“Yes, Grandpa!” Jonathan said politely.

After returning to the Harrington mansion, the first thing he did was take a shower before changing into fresh clothing.

Catherine, on the other side, probably went out shopping because the Ferrari was nowhere to be seen.

Of course, Jonathan did not need to worry about Catherine's safety or that she would cheat on him. He did not continue practicing Requiem because there were some things that needed to be thought about, and it was not about practice.

In the end, he got bored, so he wanted to find Amber and talk with her. However, he hesitated because he was a married man already. It would be pretty cruel if he kept visiting her and giving her false hope.

When he thought of that, he shook away his idea.

In the past, he was unmarried, so he could do whatever he wanted. Things had changed; he could not do that anymore.

It was a coincidence then that Amber called him.

He was still a little giddy about it, so he answered the call immediately.

Amber spoke. “They're heading back to Horington on the first flight today.”

Jonathan was a little stunned. “Okay!”

“Are you doing good?”

“Quite good. How about you?”

“Can I invite you and your wife to a meal?”

A bitter smile appeared on his face. “I think she went out.”

“You can call her.”

He was a little confused. “Why do you keep insisting on inviting her to a meal, Amber?”

“Why do you keep insisting on not bringing her?”

“There are some things that can't be explained with just a few words.” There was bitterness in his tone.

“Then let's hang out for a meal and we can talk about it.”

“All right.”

Both of them then agreed on a location.

Jonathan promptly went out.

There were a couple of expensive cars in the Harrington mansion, and he picked a Lexus to drive.

The location they agreed to meet at was a fancy-looking cafe.

Amber did not want to bother Jonathan or have intimate moments with him.

It was just that she loved him while simultaneously feeling bad for him.

She believed he was a sacrifice for the wedding. Every time she wanted to invite both him and

Catherine out, Jonathan would say no.

It made her feel as though Catherine was not giving him any respect.

To Amber, Jonathan was a great hero. She really did not want to see him suffer like that.

The cafe was called Sunrise Cafe.

It was one in the afternoon, so the cafe only had a couple of people left.

Amber was wearing a crimson coat with sunglasses and lipsticks as she sat at the table next to the window.

Her hair was styled into wavy curls.

Just a look at her sexy and beautiful appearance would be enough for any man's heart to skip a beat.

When Jonathan entered the cafe, he immediately waved at her when he saw her.

He was wearing a black leather jacket today, which made him look more mature than usual.

In just a short amount of time, it felt as though he had completely changed.

He sat right in front of her.

Taking off her sunglasses, she smiled at him. “What do you think about my new look?”

“Pretty.” He smiled.

“What do you want to drink?”

His gaze swept across the cafe. “Is there anything here I can eat? I'm hungry.”

“There's cake.” She waved her hand and called for a server. Jonathan ordered a slice of tiramisu cake and a cup of coffee.

The food and drink arrived quickly as they chatted.

He spoke with a serious expression. “It's not what you think, Amber.”

“Oh?” Amber said.

“Catherine's not going to get mad at me, and the Harrington family certainly won't. Technically, no one in this world can.”

She believed him because that was how he always was. Once he was angry, nothing could scare him, not even the heavens.

He continued, “Catherine always had issues since she was a child. She can't experience any emotion and doesn't care about anyone else, not even her grandpa or me. When her grandpa said she could marry me, she agreed. I believe even if Grandpa tells her to marry an ugly person, she'll do it as well.”

It was then she came to a realization and suddenly asked, “Have you done it with her?”

Jonathan rolled his eyes. “Do you think I'm that kind of person?”

Amber giggled. Her mood had been lifted as she joked, “I believe in your character, but I'm not so certain about your performance in bed.”

He rubbed his nose silently.

Then a serious expression returned to her face. “What are you going to do now? What's your plan?”

“Plan?” He turned serious as well. “If Grandpa hadn't saved me, I would've been dead by now. He asked me to take care of the Harrington family, and I've decided to take up the responsibility to do that. Besides, you know about the whole deal with the Chosen One. I can't escape it no matter what I do, so I decided not to escape at all. I'll enter the Divine Realm and become more powerful. As for Catherine and I, it's not going to be something I'll think about for now. I don't like marriage, but even though I am married now, she's not going to restrict what I can do. This is probably the best outcome I can hope for.”

She nodded. “That doesn't sound too bad, I suppose.”

They stayed in the cafe for two hours before leaving. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Though it was subtle, they could tell something had changed.

In the past, they could joke with each other. Now, they could not anymore.

When Amber left, she felt quite melancholic.

Both Jonathan and Amber felt they should not cross a line, even though Catherine would not have cared about it.

The next day, Jonathan went to the river alone to train again.

For the next ten days, he would leave early and return late to train.

Both Yareth and Catherine did not ask anything about it.

He kept training for the past ten days to increase his lung capacity, and it continued to grow.

At that point, he could spell out half the syllables in the water.
