Theo immediately began his purge with the rest of the soldiers. They had to make sure to inflict as much damage as possible.
Meanwhile, Rea had returned to the command center and saw Agata and Nella.
Without hesitation, she gave a thumbs up with a playful smirk, showing the result of today's war.
"We've won." Agata declared out loud with a huge smile on her face.
As soon as they heard that declaration, the people were shocked for a moment before cheers erupted. They hugged the partner next to them and shook their hands, congratulating them for winning this battle.
"Send the message to the headquarters. We've won on our front, and Theo is leading the army to chase the remaining monsters. Also, contact the other bases to know about their current situation!"
"Yes, Ma'am!" After that brief celebration, they hurriedly went back to work.
"By the way, Theo wants to tell you something," said Rea with a confused expression. "Even I don't understand what he's talking about."
"What did he say?"
"He told me that there was no need to prepare for the next battle. There wouldn't be any more war against the sea races… at least in this generation."
"Mhm?" Agata thought for a moment. Although they managed to crush their plan and eliminate a World Class Monster, there were still numerous monsters in the sea. With most of their planet covered by water, she wouldn't be so surprised to find out there were more than fifty World Class Monsters under the sea. And if all of them emerged at the same time, it would be a catastrophe.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, Theo had guaranteed that they wouldn't attack again during their generation, so this might be good news, even though she didn't know how Theo reached that conclusion.
In the end, Agata accepted those words without putting too much thought. "I understand. If that's the case…"
Agata thought for a moment and said, "Tell all our soldiers to kill as many monsters as possible. We'll set up a new perimeter and make sure they don't chase after crossing that line."
"Understood."
"By the way, you shouldn't excessively use the Skylink, you know," Nella interjected.
"What do you mean?" Agata furrowed her eyebrows.
"Hmm, I don't have a specific explanation. In fact, this is just something we come up with after thinking about it together.
"When we were in Chile, we were almost attacked by those monsters as well. It was surprising that the monsters knew about our existence. Hence, we've thought about the way to find us…" Nella raised her finger. "…And that is the electromagnetic wave."
"Mhm?" Agata frowned. "What do you mean?"
"Literally. I believe the signal from the Skylink and Radio can be sensed by them."
Agata's expression became serious as she finally understood why they managed to find the US Base despite being a few states away from the coastlines.
"I see." Agata thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, I'll tell Isaac to research this."
Nella nodded.
"As expected of you." Rea smirked. "By the way, how should I address you? I mean, Theo is my master and he considers you as his younger sister… Should I call you Aunt?"
"You're older than me. Hearing it alone gives me goosebumps." Nella was shivering before saying, "Just call me by my name."
"Sure." Rea chuckled. "Though, it seems that he's planning to let you stay with us… Although it means that you're leaving the Griffith Family, he won't forbid you from contacting them either. So, what do you think?"
"What? You're not lying?"
"Yep. Though, you have to confirm it again with Teacher!"
"If that's the case, then I'd love to. Should I stay together with you, Sister-in-law?" Nella made a cheeky smile as if teasing her.
"If you want." Agata smiled, accepting it easily to the point it startled Nella.
"…" Nella scratched the back of her head. "I really can't beat you. Tsk. Even if I'm going to live there, I'll probably live somewhere nearby, not your house. I don't want to disturb your peaceful life too much."
"Haha." Agata chuckled. Since the war was over, she had calmed down and started pushing the rest of the matter to the people here while she was talking with Rea and Nella. Of course, she wouldn't dare to do it in United Asia, but Theo had confirmed it, so she knew nothing would go wrong.
…
On the other hand, Clone Theo met a person in the middle of his chase. After all, her contribution was one of the biggest to this victory.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was none other than Alexa, the Mafia Queen.
"Thanks to you, we've won this war." Theo smiled while extending his hand.
"And I got something interesting to watch. You're truly something, Theodore Griffith. You're the youngest saint in history and I don't doubt that you might even reach an even higher stage in the future. I'm looking forward to it and I hope you can buy me a drink."
"Haha, certainly. I hope that there won't be any conflict between us." Theo nodded. "I don't drink though."
"What?" Alexa suddenly looked at him in disgust. "You don't drink? Religion?"
"No, it's simply my rule." Theo shook his head. He didn't want to be drunk because he might not be himself after drinking. And if he somehow said a lie, he would have broken his rule, causing him to lose his power. That was why he didn't drink alcohol.
"Well, I understand that." Alexa smirked. "Still, this is the second World Class Monster, huh…"
She couldn't help but remember the first time they joined hands to kill the World Class Monster in Mexico. It was truly a thrilling experience.
"Haha, thanks to that, it seems I have a lot of stories to tell my people." Theo chuckled.
Alexa smirked. "In that case, I won't disturb you any longer. For now, I'll be waiting for you in this location." She pointed at the dot on the map.
"Alright. I'll be there later and arrange everything for your people and those refugees."
Alexa nodded. "Then, see you later, Theodore Griffith."
"Yes."
