"It seems there's no point in acting anymore." Theo smirked as he ripped apart the face skin he had. It wasn't real face skin. He just used his illusion to make it look like he had a face mask since his illusion power was still a secret.
He also amplified that power with the Order to fool anyone here who didn't have Order yet.
After that, he shook his clothes as a few pillows fell to the ground as proof of why his body had become big. In other words, Theo had been among them this whole time, yet, they never realized it.
They soon saw scars unique to Joker before the latter raised his hand to cover his face.
A thin cloth wrapped in his hand suddenly moved as if it was alive. It then turned into a mask as Joker finally made his appearance.
"As expected, being like this feels good." Theo smiled.
Everyone gulped down.
'So, this is Joker. He has been anticipating everything and doing all this… Why does he remind me of him? The guy who always outplays the others that losing still means winning to him…' Alea thought as she could see Theo's figure in Joker.
'Star Group's Joker… No wonder they can defeat many Mythical Rank Experts. His reputation is well-deserved.' Ana bit her lips. Joker was truly the genius of the generation.
'So, that's why Mark contacted me?' Phyrill stared at Mark.
Ergene lowered her head to Theo. She knew that both Mark and Joker were Theo, but in this case, her loyalty was to Theo, so she needed to show it to everyone here.
"What should we do?" Ergene, who gave the suggestion to Mark earlier, suddenly became like a student who asked her teacher's guidance.
"Let's see… I've heard that you can spell Joker without 'Joke' eh?' Theo glanced at Ragnar while smirking, "I'll be a joke then. Instead of saving these guys? How about killing all of them here? Not only can I eliminate all the future threats but also stop the Poison King from gaining an ally."
Ana suddenly shouted, "Joker! I know that my palace is in the wrong for not stopping him from insulting you. But if you want to direct your hatred, just do it to me. Please save the rest!"
"Hoh? A bold request." Theo smirked. "To think that the Empress' granddaughter is this brave and responsible… Thanks to you, I'll save your people then. But since the World Martial Institute is picking a fight with me, I don't think I'll save them…"
"You bastard!" Ragnar gritted his teeth.
Theo raised two fingers. "Two people! I'm going to kill two people from your group to satisfy my revenge. Choose wisely, O' Son of the Great Scholar."
Ragnar was dumbstruck, but it didn't take too long for him to state the name. "Phyrill and Ellen. Kill them!"
Theo's smile became bigger and bigger as he said, "Then, the deal is made. Ergene…"
"Yes." Ergene nodded with a serious expression, walking to Phyrill and Ellen. They were helpless and had accepted their fate.
Phyrill begged, "Can you be satisfied with just me? If you don't want me to die easily, you can torture me until you're satisfied… But please spare her."
"No! I have a Split Personality! It means you can count my life as two! Please just kill me!" Ellen shouted, not wanting Phyrill to die.
But Ergene remained silent as she finally arrived in front of them.
The two begged her, but Ergene suddenly grabbed both their waists and carried them to Theo's side. "I have brought them with me. With this…"
"Yes." Theo smirked. "Our group has finally completed. I guess it's a buy-one-get-one-free deal. Nice to meet you, Phyrill, Ellen… Welcome to my group."
"Huh?" All of them were dumbfounded, not understanding what Theo had just said.
However, their shock fell short as the Poison King finally returned to the battlefield.
"It seems that you have got what you want from here… When I was blown away earlier, I realized that you had no reason to come here if you already knew about my plot… So, I was wondering the reason for you to come here. It turns out you're planning to invite people to your group!" The Poison King narrowed his eyes.
"Took you long enough to realize that. But thanks to your slow brain, I can finish my matter here." Theo smiled. "There's no need for me to stay here anymore."
"Do you think you can leave?"
"Do you think I can't?"
"…" The Poison King couldn't deny it because of Theo's power. "As expected… despite being only a Supreme Rank Expert, you've attained that absolute power that only the top one hundred experts can receive… No wonder there is no Supreme Rank Expert that can fight you anymore.
"The moment you become a Mythical Rank Expert, you will be able to enter the top one hundred experts in the world instantly and your rank won't be that low." The Poison King gritted his teeth while looking at his broken hand.
Theo inflicted that damage with his Alter Ego that increased his strength to the very limit. And the side effect was his body hurting all over. Though, he could endure the pain easily since the side effect wasn't as strong as when his Agility was at maximum.
"Still, this is the end, Joker. You have ruined my plan, but the price is your life!" He raised his hand, pointing his palm at his daughter.
"Aaaaahhhh!" The Poison Princess started convulsing as her body gradually melted due to the corrosive effect of the poison inside. Even the Disguised Mark leaped back to avoid being affected by that poison.
As soon as the skin, flesh, and bone disappeared, the gas hiding inside her body exploded, surrounding the area with a thick purple gas.
"Hahahahahaha!"
"Poison?" Theo narrowed his eyes while looking at the people around him that had started convulsing as well.
"Do you think you have escaped? That poison contains all the poison that I have infused into her body. In other words, it will be an extremely potent poison that will be able to kill a Mythical Rank Expert! It's a shame that I need to work on everything again from the start, but this is the end, Joker!" The Poison King shouted excitedly, thinking he had won.
However, a translucent white screen appeared out of thin air and expanded, pushing all the poison away from them. Even the poison in their body was released into the air and swept by the screen.
And Theo, who was standing in the middle of them, looked at him with a poker face, saying, "Ah, okay."
