Chapter 710: The Wind Emperor
Chapter 710: The Wind Emperor
In Theo’s mansion.
Theo was sitting in the garden with Leonardo standing in front of him.
“So, what do you think about meeting him?” Leonardo smirked, asking.
“There’s nothing wrong with that.” Theo shook his head. “I am afraid the situation is going to be complicated soon. Besides, I need to think of a way to finish my international assignment.”
“Haha, I bet there is already a bounty on your head.” Leonardo chuckled.
“Is that supposed to be funny?” Theo’s eyebrows twitched before looking at Agata, asking the same question.
“It’s not funny, but that’s not what he means.” Agata shook her head helplessly.
“That’s right.” Leonardo raised his finger, pointing at his head. “I had one in the past. What was my last bounty again? Something around 200 Billion Zils? Yeah, it’s something like that I guess.
“The one that put this kind of bounty was a group of powerful companies. They put all their money into this just to kill me.
“In the end, I killed the people who were after me and forced them to retract the bounty by destroying the force of all people involved, including the killers.
“They were too scared of me now to the point they would hide if I set my eyes on them.
“I guess this is something you should strive for… No one knows about this, but you will find many people’s bounties, especially those who are important or strong.
“One of the former top five experts in the world once had a bounty on her head. And she destroyed everything with her prowess and had her bounty removed because she would aggressively pursue those who dared to put the bounty.
“Although she died because of her injuries, there was no more bounty in her head at that time and she passed away in her house.
“Meanwhile, I caused a quite big disruption that forced them to do so.
“What I want to say is, there are multiple ways to make them retract your bounty. What you should do first is to increase your bounty as much as possible before pressuring the whole world to make sure no one puts a bounty on your head again.” Leonardo smirked.
“Well, that’s not going to happen in the next ten years.” Theo shrugged. “Besides, you’re missing the point here.”
“Ah, about that old man? He’s strong.”
“Stronger than you?”
“What do you think?” Leonardo smirked.
Theo shrugged and said, “I don’t know your full strength, so I can’t say. Besides, ranking is not that accurate in a battle.”
“That’s true. Why don’t you ask him?” Leonardo pointed at the gate that suddenly opened.
Davi was pushing a wheelchair for an old man. Despite appearing to be weak, Ava jumped on Theo’s shoulder as if she could feel the power of the old man and tried to protect him.
“Haha, you should know my answer.” The old man chuckled.
“Yeah, because you’re shameless.” Leonardo rolled his eyes.
The old man ignored Leonardo’s remark as he focused only on one person. It was Theo.
Their eyes intertwined as Theo felt an overbearing pressure emanating from his eyes.
The pressure increased drastically when killing intent started mixing with the air.
‘What is this?’ Agata took a step back as she couldn’t help but smell something. ‘This is blood?’
Theo gritted his teeth and saw Leonardo remain still. He took a deep breath and released his killing intent as well.
But instead of spreading it like the Wind Emperor, he focused it on one spot until it reached the Wind Emperor.
“…” The Wind Emperor could feel it, but it was too weak for him to be affected. Even so, he couldn’t help but smile and say, “No wonder why I suffered in your hand. Interesting.”
The killing intent instantly disappeared as if nothing happened. The blood smell also vanished from the air.
“So, your hobby is bullying a kid now?” Leonardo narrowed his eyes.
“Haha, I imprisoned my grandson not long ago, what do you think?” The Wind Emperor glanced at Leonardo. Although he didn’t express it, Leonardo knew he didn’t like it.
So, he looked away while saying, “It’s just a battle between youngsters.”
“Indeed. I am ashamed that my youngsters can’t even be compared to your young generations.” The Wind Emperor sighed and continued, “Though, the worst part is that he didn’t have any training before he was in high school. This kind of progress, even I envy it.”
“You’re already that old.” Leonardo stuck his tongue.
“Indeed. That’s why I don’t like moving around anymore. So, to prevent me from moving around, how about you come with me to Russia? You won’t go hungry and have many mistresses.” The Wind Emperor smiled, glancing at Theo.
“I think you asked the wrong question.” Leonardo smirked.
“I know. I am just asking… Though, I’m pretty serious about that. Even if you want both the Empress’ daughter and disciple at the same time, I can make that happen.” The Wind Emperor chuckled.
“I’m thankful for the offer, but I respectfully decline.” Theo shook his head politely. “My objective is not a romantic relationship for the time being.”
“Really?” The Wind Emperor glanced at Agata. “So, Mimicry Skill? Now that I have confirmed it. Let me guess. Agata Mota?”
Agata, although shocked, didn’t react. She simply said, “I am honored if the Wind Emperor thinks of me as the revered Agata Mota. Unfortunately, I need to disappoint Sir Wind Emperor.”
“Haha, whatever. I don’t really care about this.” The Wind Emperor looked at Theo. “You’re strong, shrewd, and unruly. Though, there is one thing you lack right now.”
“Something I lack?”
“Yeah. Because of your age and time of training, you haven’t polished all your techniques. If you come to Russia, you might be able to learn something like this.” The Wind Emperor lifted his right hand.
“…” Leonardo furrowed his eyebrows and summoned his sword, preparing to make his move.
Theo, on the other hand, didn’t even move, knowing that he couldn’t do anything to the Wind Emperor if even Leonardo couldn’t stop him.
Suddenly, the Wind Emperor pushed his hand forward as the wind started moving violently.
