After getting that revelation, Theo couldn't sleep anymore.
He finally understood why the God of Mischief never wanted to tell him about emotion. "I see. It seems that everyone has been missing something that simple. But then again, Emotion Order huh… To think there is something that doesn't exist… No, should I say can't be allowed to exist?"
Theo fell into a deep thought until he heard someone knocking on the door.
"Joker, it's me." Rea's voice resounded from outside.
"Come in."
Rea opened the door, finding Theo sitting on his chair with a complicated expression. She reported, "I've taken care of Phyrill and Ellen. I'll immediately go and handle their transfer the day after tomorrow since my father needs to convince the Fist Saint to not make his move. In fact, that's the reason why you send me there, right?"
"Yeah. Do you hate it?"
"Well, it's my father who takes the full brunt, so I'm okay for now. Though, I wish that you don't really push everything to my father in the future."

"Thank you." Rea nodded, satisfied. "Then, let's continue the discussion."
Theo raised his hand and formed a map.
"Hmm. Italy? Are we going to discuss our plan for your proposal?"
Theo then summoned a few pieces with his illusion, dividing them into five big groups.
"Our group, War Saint, Military, Skyward Mercenary, and Griffith Family…" Rea narrowed her eyes. "So, we haven't gotten a name yet."
"Welp." Theo shrugged. "Anyway, these are the five that will most likely influence the course of the battle. If you're the strategist, what will you do?"
Before Rea thought about it, she asked one question. "Do I need to assume your grandfather's action?"
The reason why Rea asked this question was due to the big influence that a strategist like the War Saint could bring. His own plan could affect the entire plan itself, so Rea realizing this trap was the proof of her growth.
"Assume that even me will be playing that big role." Theo smirked.
Rea's expression turned serious as she kept looking at the map, contemplating his move.
"I have been thinking about your plan this whole time. I want to see how much I have improved my strategic thinking after learning from you. So…" Rea paused for a moment before pointing at the Griffith Family and said, "They will be the biggest factor that can change the whole plan. After all, their former head is the current ranked 8th in the world… And I believe your plan is to send my father to stop him. Unless you believe that the War Saint can handle him alone."
"I give you 70 points for this one. Your move is correct, but the reason is different."
"The reason is different? Are you talking about the difference in number?"
"Correct. It's true that the War Saint won't fall even if he fights against twenty Mythical Rank Experts. But it'll be a different case if those twenty experts are trying to get away from him. There's no way for him to chase after all of them."
"I see. So, that's why the Griffith Family has become the biggest factor in this plan." Rea nodded in understanding. "If that's the case, I'll still send your grandfather to handle the Griffith Family. There's also another person in the rank one hundred, right?"
"Yes." Theo confirmed the existence of the Mind Elder.
"Why do I feel like he's going to come with this group?" Rea asked while pointing at Skyward Mercenary.
"He will. The Griffith Family should have expected that if I come back here, I won't come unless I have an assurance of defeating the Skyward Mercenary. In other words, they're planning to send the Mind Elder with them."
"To throw the balance, huh." Rea thought for a moment and asked, "Still, how do we fight against two top experts like that? Even if Ruth had gained this power as well, she was still too weak to be compared to them."
"Let's just say that I have a hidden weapon to handle the Skyward Mercenary. As for the Mind Elder, I'll be the one to kill him." Theo's tone became cold when he mentioned the Mind Elder. He was the one that wrecked his family, so Theo wanted to kill him personally. No one could change his decision.
"I see." She nodded with a serious expression. "Still, we have one more problem. The Skyward Mercenary has like twenty Mythical Rank Experts. Our group only has ten."
Theo said, "Walker will handle their vice leader. That's the promise. As for the rest… Ruth is enough to handle five of them even if she's still new to that new power. You can handle the rest."
"So, we're going to fight them one-on-one except for Felix and Ruth… If that's the case, should we mobilize the Mota Family?"
"You don't know that answer?"
Rea thought for a moment but still shook her head.
"Don't forget that I'm going to reveal my identity and propose to Agata."
"Ah! You must want to shake the world and announce to the world that Agata is yours. That's why there must be many people around the area. The Mota Family will be protecting them. At the same time, Agata has told you that she will create the biggest stage for you… If that's the case, there will be many media coming. This way, your name will reverberate all around the world." Rea sucked a cold breath. She never thought that Theo already had such a vision back then, and Agata seemed to have realized it and asked her to entrust that task to her.
She realized that the gap between her and Agata was still too big because Agata might be the only person in this world that could see through Theo's plan.
"I see. That's how it is… If that's the case, don't you think this move is good?" Rea suddenly pointed at the two groups and moved them together.
When he saw this sudden move, Theo's expression changed as he muttered, "Interesting."
