Chapter 635 – Messing With Style
"This…" Alea and Ana were stupefied, never expecting to see something like this.
"That guy is only 18 years old, right?" The empress narrowed her eyes, staring at Alea.
"Yes. He's two years younger than me." Alea nodded, confirming Theo's age.
"And he is already at this level? Tell me what's the real reason for him to do all this." The empress asked both of them with a serious expression.
Ana and Alea looked down, contemplating their answers.
Ana was the first to answer. "He's trying to show that he will make his enemies suffer and make his friends happy like you said. I have seen this during the avalanche. Theo created an avalanche, so his assistant could stand out from the rest and the War God Family could deal with the monsters faster. Meanwhile, the Griffith Family and our team were suffering because they had a hard time finding the monsters.
"Now that I take another look at the situation, Theo seemed to be so friendly with Nella and harsh on the other people in her group. Isn't this implying that he is Nella's friend, but not the Griffith Family?
"Still, there's no reason why Theo decided to give Nella the Poison Fruit. This is weird." Ana pinched the bridge of her nose, thinking over.
Alea, on the other hand, had her answer ready. "I believe Theo has two targets. They are the Zhilov and the Griffith Family. Isn't that the reason why Master said those curse words?" Alea asked and continued with her explanation. "Anyway, if Zhilov didn't pick a fight with him, Theo might grab the Poison Fruits for the whole group. In other words, we would still get two whole fruits in the end.
"However, because of Zhilov, he decided to punish the entire team and pin all the blame on him. In fact, if Master calls Sir Wind Emperor, the Czar won't be quiet for a while, considering their younger generation has caused them trouble. This is going to be big because the other party is from the War God Family. Everyone knows Sir War Saint's reputation, including the setback they will receive if they anger him.
"And Theo will get taught by Sir War Saint for another year. This means Theo's progress is just the start, resulting in him being more dangerous in the future."
The empress nodded with a sigh. "Yeah. That was also the reason why you two were chosen by him to fight the giant. He didn't want you to suffer because Ana had stopped Zhilov a couple of times while you… Why don't you get married already?"
"That's not—"
Before Alea corrected her, the empress made an "o" with her left hand and pierced it with her other hand. "Just do this already. If you get a kid, he will settle down."
"Master!" Alea gritted her teeth and let out a long sigh, calming her heart down. "Anyway, Zhilov and the Czar will be in the center of the attention for the time being. Depending on Master's decision, the Czar may send their assassins to kill him or just mend the bridge to avoid more confrontations."
"You're still short-sighted, Alea. The Czar only has one option. It's the latter."
"What do you mean, Master?"
"Do you forget the fact that little bastard can leave the War God Family as he pleases? The Star Group is ready to acquire him even if they need to pay a hefty price, and it's not like the War God Family will have no contact with him either. In other words, if the Czar plans to have their revenge, they will be facing the Star Group and the War God Family at the same time. We can't rule out the possibility that the Griffith Family won't participate either.
"There are currently two factions in there. If his father won this battle and Nella became the next ruler of the family, the Griffith Family would surely attack Czar as well. Do you think they can handle these three big influences?" The empress sighed. "This little bastard now can look at the future and doesn't mind playing with fire because he has many fire extinguishers behind him. A freaking monster."
Alea looked down and said, "Then, the Poison Fruit…"
"Yes. I believe he still has the two Poison Fruits since this picture wants to redirect our anger to the Czar instead of him. And it's not like we have many reasons to hate him because of you." The empress nodded.
"But Mother…" Ana raised her hand. "The Czar family aside, didn't you say the Griffith Family will suffer too? If that's the case, isn't it wise to give one fruit to Nella?"
"Not really. With Nella not having the fruit means the elder faction will start pressuring her. The internal conflict will become even messier. Then, as I said earlier, Czar will try to mend the relationship with Theo and the War God Family. To do that, they're going to shift their anger to the Griffith Family and mess them up.
"This way, the Griffith Family will have to deal with that mercenary group, the Czar and their own internal conflict. They will be in a chaotic situation for a while, and the one who is enjoying all this is none other than Theo. I thought he was the type of guy who only wanted short satisfaction, but I was wrong.
"He's not the type that you want to mess with. After all, he's not using his own hand to ruin his enemies. He's using chaos and other hands to get what he wants. And when these big influences are fighting, more chaos will happen because those they have been supervising this whole time will make their move too, maybe declaring their independence or something like that.
"Oh, boy… I need to call the Wind Emperor fast." The empress sighed and pulled her Skylink out, calling the Wind Emperor. While waiting for the call to be connected, she said, "I bet this guy is enjoying his time while watching all this event unfold. Fuck that Leonardo for creating this freak."
As she said, Theo was lying down on the grass as he was waiting for his training, chilling like he hadn't done anything wrong.
Suddenly, Agata walked toward him with her eyes locked on her Skylink. "Theo…"
"Oh, is the report ready?" Theo smiled.
