I Am Unstoppable
Chapter 208

Chapter 208

As Gabriel fiddled with the magic ring on his finger, his mind was flooded with memories of thehumiliation Jonathan put him through.

“I only lost to you because of a miscalculation on my part, Jonathan. This time, I won't repeat thatmistake again. I'm going to torture you to my heart's content, so try to stay alive for as long as you can,”he mumbled to himself with a gloomy look in his eyes.

Lailah saw Jonathan sleeping on the floor when she woke up in the middle of the night. While mostother people would feel sorry for Jonathan and ask him to sleep on the bed, that was clearly not thecase with Lailah. Oh, he's tough enough to sleep on the floor! I shouldn't have to feel bad for him at all!

With that in mind, Lailah smiled faintly and went back to sleep.

Little did she know, Jonathan actually had sexual fantasies about her before he fell asleep.

Although he was a very honorable man, he still found himself being tempted when faced with Lailah.That was especially the case in intimate situations like these.

Even so, Jonathan had his limits and wouldn't act upon his sexual fantasies regardless of how strongthe temptation was.

While having such urges was perfectly normal for a healthy young man like Jonathan, he was able tosuppress said urges and keep his thoughts to himself.

Had he been the kind of guy who acted upon his impulses, he would've taken advantage of Jenniferlong ago.

Jonathan ended up having a nightmare in the middle of the night.

In his dreams, he saw Gabriel sitting in a wheelchair and staring coldly at him while rotating a magicring on his finger.

It looked as though Gabriel was trying to tell him that no miracle would save him from death this time.

“What the f*ck?” Jonathan yelled as he sat bolt upright.

Having been woken up by his sudden outburst, Lailah sat up straight and glanced at him in confusion.“What is it?”

Jonathan rubbed his eyes and asked, “Huh? How did I end up on the floor? Did you kick me off the bedor something?”

“Haha. Very funny, Jonathan,” Lailah replied coldly.

After giving it some thought, Jonathan recalled he had been sleeping on the floor all along. He thentried to change the subject by saying, “I had a nightmare. I dreamt of that b*stard Gabriel sitting in adark corner and staring at me.”

Lailah rolled her eyes at him in response. “You defeated Gabriel, didn't you? Why are you so scared ofhim that you're having nightmares before he even shows up?”

“Please, I'm in the final stage of Nascent Soul! I'm only a step away from reaching Celestial Soul, forgoodness' sake! My mental state is incredibly strong, so there's no way I'd have nightmares! I bet

Gabriel is in this hotel right now. He must've cast one of those illusion spells from the Crimson OnyxSect to try and intimidate me,” Jonathan replied.

Instead of coming up with a snappy comeback, Lailah froze and fell silent after hearing that. Being apowerful individual herself, she knew full well that Jonathan wouldn't possibly have such nightmares.

“If this really is Gabriel's doing, then his spiritual energy must be unusually powerful,” Lailah said after abrief pause.

“That guy has the ability to see the future. How about we go check with the staff at the front desk andsee if Gabriel is staying here?” Jonathan suggested.

“It'd be pointless to do so if he's able to see the future,” Lailah replied.

“That's not necessarily true. He can only see a bit of the future, not every single detail. If we're able toreplace some information on him, we might be able to get the drop on him and take him out right away.What do you think?”

“I think you're still dreaming. Master Oswald wouldn't have sent him here if he were that easily killed.You know, you really should stop underestimating Master Oswald.”

“I don't care. I'm going to try asking the front desk. You're free to come with me if you're afraid of Luciojumping me!” Jonathan said as he got to his feet and made his way toward the door.

What if he's right? What if this is all a trap? What if Gabriel deliberately gave him that nightmare to flushhim out of his room? Letting him go on his own would just give Lucio the perfect opportunity to kill him!

Not wanting to take any risks, Lailah let out a helpless sigh as she got off the bed and left the room withJonathan.

Unbeknownst to her, Jonathan only dared leave the room on his own because he knew she would tagalong.

He had actually been feeling rather depressed throughout the past two months. I felt unbeatable afterachieving Neutralizing Force when I was in the Smealand woods. I honestly thought I'd be able to havemy way after returning to Horington, only to realize this is where the truly deep waters are. Even afterachieving the final stage of Nascent Soul, I'm still considered fairly weak and easy game to most of the“big fish” here! F*cking hell! I can't even leave my d*mned room without fearing for my life! I'm going todefeat Lucio, or my name isn't Jonathan Lawson!

After leaving the hotel room, the two of them were making their way through the corridor whenJonathan suddenly stopped in front of room 804.

Lailah shot him a puzzled look in response.

“Do you think they're inside?” Jonathan whispered while pointing at the door.

Lailah smacked herself on the forehead and let out a sigh. “You're a genius, you know that?”

Those words had barely left her mouth when Jonathan kicked the door open and rushed into the room.

My goodness... Does this guy's recklessness know no bounds? Lailah shook her head helplessly asshe followed him inside.

The room was dimly lit by a lamp on the nightstand, and the first thing Jonathan saw was a nakedcouple having sex in bed.

The two of them were going at it pretty hard, even though it was really late at night.

Jonathan bursting into the couple's room all of a sudden scared the living daylights out of them.

The two of them quickly pulled the blankets over their bodies to cover up. The man, who was fromAnglandur, yelled in Ustranasian, “Whoa! What the f*ck is going on here?”

Realizing that he had made a mistake, Jonathan put on his most authoritative voice possible andasked, “We're from the Global Police Force, and we're currently investigating a human-trafficking caseinvolving young women. What's your relationship with this woman next to you?”

The look on the man's face turned pale the moment he heard that, which made it obvious that he washaving an affair.

“You know what? Never mind. You don't look like you've got the b*lls to do something like that anyway,”Jonathan said and walked out of the room.

Feeling relieved that he was let off without any trouble, the man didn't even dare confront Jonathanabout it.

As Jonathan continued down the corridor, he stopped in front of yet another room door. Afraid of whathe might do, Lailah grabbed him by the arm and shouted, “Hey! Don't go barging into the room again,genius!”

“Don't worry; I was just messing with you!” Jonathan replied with a mischievous chuckle.

Lailah rolled her eyes in annoyance as the two of them took the elevator down to the main lobby on thefirst floor.

The entire lobby was brightly lit, and a lady was stationed at the front desk.

“Hello, sir. Is there something I can help you with?” the lady asked with a smile when she saw Jonathanand Lailah making their way over.

“I just received word that someone is going to plant a bomb here! Could you help me check if a personby the name of Gabriel Carter is staying in this hotel?” Jonathan asked anxiously.

The lady went pale with fear when she heard that. As she wasn't sure if Jonathan was telling the truth,she decided to escalate the matter and said, “Hold on, I'll give the security manager a call!”

Jonathan nodded. “Please hurry!”

After making the call, the lady put the phone down and asked, “The security manager will be hereshortly. Could you tell me who you are and how you know about this bomb?”

“Gabriel is an enemy of mine. He followed me here and sent a text claiming he had hidden a bomb inthis building. That's why I need you to hurry up and replace out if he has checked in to this hotel. We mightjust be able to avert this crisis if we catch him in time!” Jonathan replied.

After hesitating for a bit, the lady at the front desk clenched her teeth and began searching through the

records.

Lailah couldn't help but be impressed by what she had just witnessed. Wow... Jonathan lies as easilyas he breathes... Well, I suppose that can be a useful skill to have in situations like this!

It wasn't long before the security manager showed up.

He was an Irethielian man with really dark skin and a huge, muscular frame. The security manager shotJonathan a confused glance before speaking to the lady in Irethielian. Since Jonathan didn't speak thelanguage, he couldn't understand a single thing they were saying.

After translating the security manager's message in her head, the lady told Jonathan, “He would like toknow your identity.”

“We don't have time for that right now! The explosion could kill everyone in this building if we don't replaceGabriel in time! I just need you to tell me if he is staying here!” Jonathan yelled in her face.

The lady was so shaken up by his sudden outburst that she gave in and said, “Yes, he's staying inroom 708!”

Jonathan and Lailah exchanged glances before running toward room 708 as quickly as their feet couldcarry.

Although they took the stairs instead of riding the elevator, they were running so fast that they got to theseventh floor in less than a minute.

That was most certainly a lot quicker than the elevator.

After arriving outside room 708, Lailah motioned at Jonathan to stay put and listen for any activitiesbefore planning their next move.

However, Jonathan simply kicked the door wide open and charged in just as he did with the previousroom.

Lailah smacked herself on the forehead as she followed him into the room.

The room was brightly lit, but there was no one in sight.

Jonathan found a laptop on the coffee table and went over to switch it on.

A video file popped up on the screen with the words: Please watch this, Jonathan.

Lailah sat down beside him as he clicked on the video.

At first, all they saw was an unsettling, pitch-black darkness.

Seconds later, Gabriel slowly emerged from the darkness in a wheelchair.

He was casually rotating the magic ring on his finger as he made his way forward.

It was exactly what Jonathan saw in his nightmare earlier.

Jonathan shuddered as he told Lailah, “This is what I saw in my dream earlier!”

The look on Lailah's face turned gloomy when she heard that.

That was when Gabriel spoke up all of a sudden. “Hey, Jonathan. Are you surprised to see me? Whowould've thought we'd cross paths again, eh? You thought you were being smart by asking the frontdesk about me, but it was completely futile. You wanted to kill me because you were afraid of me, soyou asked the front desk for my room number and came looking for me all the way here. That's whyyou're watching this video right now, Jonathan. Did you realize that you literally just walked right intomy trap?”

His statements made such perfect sense that Jonathan and Lailah found themselves at a loss forwords.

Gabriel continued, “I suppose you're wondering why I led you into this room. Well, do you two feel yourbodies getting hotter? That's because I installed a—”
