Theo wanted to cook for her, but it seemed that the meeting lasted a bit too long. Agata had actually woken up and started cooking already, knowing Theo would be back soon.
"…" Theo looked at her awkwardly, not knowing what to do since she had woken up. "Ehm…"
Agata chuckled. "What? You wanted to cook earlier?"
"Well, you looked tired, so I thought I should cook you a light meal." Theo sighed.
Agata just smiled as if telling him that she was one step ahead this time. "You shouldn't have taken too much time if you want to do that."
"You should know how much trouble we have right now." Theo shook his head helplessly while walking to her.
"Of course. That's why I know I should be the one cooking this time. Just sit there. I'm going to finish soon."
Instead of sitting down, Theo just walked behind her and gently hugged her. He was missing her so much. There were many life and death occasions. Theo made it look like he managed to handle everything perfectly, but if he played the wrong move once, he might never be able to come back.
Agata didn't say anything. Theo knew where to put his hands to not hinder her when cooking, so there wasn't much trouble with her movement. And she knew that Theo must have gone through a lot outside.
If there was one thing she wanted to say, it was that one. She said with a smile. "You said this earlier, but I should also say it too. You've worked hard out there."
"Mhm…" Theo just enjoyed the moment. It might be short, but at least, he could have a peaceful moment with her.
After spending some time with Agata, Rea finally called Theo, informing him that the three Transcendent Level Experts were ready to talk to him.
Albeit reluctantly, Theo left the house to take care of the rest of the matters.
Theo went straight to his room. This room was usually used by Agata, considering she had to make the important decisions in Theo's stead.
Rea put down the Skylink and connected it to the three Transcendent Level Experts.
The three experts had a lot of questions now that they had seen Theo. The first and most important question was the fact that they were talking to Theo. After all, Theo had been missing this whole time.
What if Theo actually wanted this to happen? What if Theo wasn't missing? What if Theo allowed everything to happen because he had another plan?
When they thought of Theo's way of solving problems, they couldn't help but shiver. Theo's group was currently under a lot of pressure. It could be said that they had been cornered.
And this was usually the time for Theo to turn the situation around.
This thought alone made them have a hard time keeping their collected face. They knew that if Theo planned to do something big, it would be now.
The King of Fighters, the bravest one, asked with a deep tone. "Why do you call us, Theodore Griffith?"
"I believe you've been told about the topic." Theo smiled. He acted as if he didn't care about their thoughts.
But this calm smile made the three experts panic. After all, Theo should have learned about the situation and their current predicament, yet, the latter still had the leisure to be calm. Theo must have a big plan.
Their expressions became serious. The Great Mage was the next to open his mouth. "So, are we going to talk about your training camp where you will teach the people about Orders? I apologize if I'm being rude, but I don't think this is appropriate. After all, the Orders are the biggest secret. If more people know about the Orders, it will be easy to disrupt them.
"And at that time, I'm afraid that we have to handle all those problems." The Great Mage shook his head helplessly, knowing how much trouble it would be if this secret became public knowledge.
"I know. That's why I'm here to convince the three of you." Theo waved his hand, telling him that it wasn't a big deal. "The world has undergone a great change. We now have to compete with the monsters if we want to survive.
"However, have you ever wondered how the monsters become a King Class Monster or even a World Class Monster?"
Theo's question silenced all three of them. On the one hand, they reached this stage because of the depth of their abilities as well as the guidance from the blessings they had in the past. The Gods and Goddesses from the past guided them and told them about Order, so they could attain it as well.
However, they never considered it from the monsters' perspective. The monsters didn't have the same system as them, so it was obvious that they didn't know anything about Orders and Authorities.
Yet, they had more Order and Authority compared to humans. This was a baffling situation.
And it seemed that the answer was related to why Theo wanted to teach more people about it.
"I'm sorry. It seems that it's due to my lack of understanding that I questioned your judgment. After all, your power far surpasses mine, so you might know more than I do." As expected from the wisest among the three, the Great Mage, he instantly acknowledged his mistake and apologized so that he could learn more from Theo. It was no wonder why he could become a King.
Theo nodded. "What I want to say here is the reasons why I'll teach more people as well as what kind of materials I will be teaching. And I understand your concern. Even I can see how much trouble it will cause in the future if the knowledge is spread.
"Hence, I want you to judge whether what I'm planning to do is appropriate or not. You are not my subordinates, so I believe that you can think about my decision more carefully and argue if something is not appropriate."
With a confident smile, Theo asked, "Shall we start?"
