"Fuck that clone bastard!" Mason Griffith shouted in anger, never expecting that ten Mythical Rank Experts would die just like that.
"This is why you should have stayed." The original Theo glared at Mason.
"Do you think it's easy for me to stay there? There's a chance that the Heavenly Sovereign will go back and attack me. They can claim me as everything, including a terrorist. And in the worst case, they can bring another top ten expert to besiege me." Mason gritted his teeth, slamming the table.
"That's your problem. Either way, the situation has gone from bad to worse. With the current situation of the Griffith Family, there's no need to suspect the Orel Group anymore. They're going to leave and become independent. As for the Eilric Family, there's a huge chance that they'll do the same. In other words, the Griffith Family is going to be alone from now on."
"The Eilric Family will be poached by that bastard Ray." Mason wanted to snarl again, but releasing his anger wouldn't solve the trouble. With the current situation of the Griffith Family, they wouldn't be able to do too much.
"So, we now only have me, the Poison King, and you. The Star Group has completely left that faker, so we have to be careful in the next move since we only have around fifteen Mythical Rank Experts left." The Original Theo looked down.
Unfortunately for him, even if he was smart like his clone, he hadn't received the War Saint's training, making his ability worse than Theo's.
Still, he was still talented enough to understand the situation and used all sorts of plans to win.
He thought for a moment and said, "We have gotten the confirmation from the Fist Saint. If we're going to attack that faker, we'll be able to gain his support. The same applies to the World Martial Institute. Luckily, there's an idiot who is hating the faker and Phyrill more, so it's easy to influence him to side with us."

"I'll deal with those countries. I don't want to do it at first, but this is the only thing we can do to turn around the situation."
"What are you planning to do?"
"You don't need to know. No, I am the only one who can know this information. For now, I'm going to prepare for the event that will cause chaos all over the world. This way, there's no way they can help him. In this situation, we're going to attack him as hard as possible and kill him."
"A chaotic world…" Mason narrowed his eyes, not knowing what the original Theo wanted to do. "So, I guess the preparation you're talking about."
"That's right. We need more people who can work with us to deal with him. He currently has the Wind Emperor, the Sword Saint, and the Heavenly Sovereign backing him up, along with a King Class Monster, Phantom Archer, White Death, as well as a few Kings like Leonardo and experts from other countries.
"However, the Wind Emperor is going to die soon. We will wait until his death before launching the plan.
"Before that, we have to get at least three Saints and ten Kings, along with many Mythical Rank Experts. For now, we have you and the Fist Saint as well as four kings, including the Fist Saint's first disciple."
After listening to his explanation, Mason replied, "I'll use my influence to get one or two saints with us. I'm not sure about the time God, but I think I can manipulate one Saint from Chile. You made sure that you didn't show yourself killing that bloody bastard after the auction, right?"
"Yes. So, you're going there?"
"Yeah, I'm going to the Mafia Queen, Alexandra Boric." Mason nodded. "She loves chaos, so she will surely join since you can give that chaos."
"Alright. In that case, I'll try to go around to find some Kings among the top one hundred experts. To think there are many top one hundred experts that die in just one year… But I guess the world has been chaotic this whole time." The original Theo nodded, knowing what to do.
"Alright. That sounds good to me. We still have the Poison King, so we can also launch a sneak attack and massacre people with poison."
"He'll only act according to my will. Don't ever think about controlling him." The Original Theo glared at Mason.
Mason raised both hands as if he was yielded in this argument. He still needed him, so he had to yield.
…
While the Griffith Family had trouble keeping their strength, Theo was having a relaxed time in his territory.
He had done everything he could, so there was nothing he had to do for the time being other than getting stronger.
After establishing his territory, he could finally move a few more people from the US. They were none other than Isaac, Millie, Phyrill, and Ellen.
Millie obviously liked her new house, a house with only her and her father. The house wasn't small, but it was cozy enough for them to live as a family.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIsaac, on the other hand, had to buy equipment for his research, which obviously came from Theo's pocket.
Meanwhile, Phyrill and Ellen finally got some privacy with a good spot. They felt like a newlywed couple.
While Theo was practicing, Phyrill suddenly came to Theo.
"Thanks." This was the first word that came out of his mouth.
"For what?" Theo smiled calmly.
"This way, no one will be messing with our families anymore. And with Akbar's information network, we'll know if they're being targeted again or not."
"It's alright. It's true that I'm the one bringing them to danger." Theo shook his head.
"Without you, I would have died, so there's no need to mind. And this place seems to be good to live in." Phyrill smiled.
"I'm glad you like it."
Phyrill nodded. "That's right. I have been helping Akbar with the situation around Italy, and I don't think there's an anomaly around here. But seeing the enemy has the Poison King, I'll keep the guard up, especially around the water supply."
"Yeah. Our water supply is mainly supported by the lake, but the city is the problem. It's not like we're planning to make the neighboring city a dead city." Theo nodded. "How do you feel about your job now?"
"As a detective huh." Phyrill closed his eyes with a smile.
