Chapter 483 - Four Mythical Rank Experts
Little did he know, in Thersland, specifically in front of Ark City's Teleportation Circle, Theo's Master stood on top of a building, staring at the teleportation circle.
Suddenly, a figure appeared next to her. It was the middle-aged man from the War God Family. Seeing his appearance, Theo's Master sighed. "So, what are you planning to do? He has gone to the other side. I'm sure he will chase Theo."
"To think he wants to make a move even before Theo reaches 18 years old… He is trying to challenge the Griffith Family." The man shook his head. "We should continue to follow him and buy enough time for Theo to run away."
"I guess that's the—"
"There's no need to. Leave him to us." A female's voice echoed in their ears.
Both of them turned around and saw a couple landing on top of the building.
The woman was covered with white armor and her face was hidden underneath the white helmet, only leaving her enchanting lips to remain visible.
However, the one that shocked them the most was the man next to her.
His hair and eyes were blue like Theo's. His face still looked young and more mature than Theo's, but it didn't change the fact he was already in his fifties.
He wore a blue shirt and white vest coupled with long white pants. His back was covered with a white coat.
His expression was calm, but his gaze sent chills down one's spine.
Theo's Master instinctively clasped her hands and took a step back, greeting him. "I see—"
However, the man waved her hand and stopped her movement, preventing her from continuing her greeting.
"There is no need to greet me. I am here not because of my position…" He shook his head.
"I understand." Theo's Master nodded and glanced at the one next to her.
However, the female in white armor already opened her mouth while waving her hand. "Little Davi, how are you?"
The middle-aged man shrugged. "At the very least, it's better than you, Valerie."
"I guess?" the female made a weird smile and continued, "Anyway, we're going to handle the Red Lion. I want to ask your help a little bit, Davi."
"I refuse…" Davi rejected her without hesitation before sighing, "…is what I want to say, but I'm doing this for my little nephew. Also, Father wants to make sure Theo is alright, so she and I will protect Theo while you two fight the Red Lion. Father said this is final."
"I understand." Valerie agreed.
"Then, are you going to visit him after everything is over?" Davi asked.
"I'm afraid we can't. We need to wait for another two months." The female shook her head. "If not, the elders may come personally. I am afraid the one who will come is the Mind Emperor…"
"He's not going to brainwash, Theo, right?"
"As he is right now, he won't realize if he's been brainwashed or not. That's why we have kept him in check this whole time until Theo's Awareness is strong enough to avoid the brainwashing."
"How's about the others?"
"We have cleared all their schedules for the next three months. Theo should have gone to another country by that time, which should have better security than this country."
"If you wished to protect him better, why didn't you just send him to another country?"
"That country would surely find Theo and if he grew up too much during his childhood, he would become the target of other countries. We had separated from the family back then and had no power to protect him alone, so we chose to go back to the family to gain the position to stop them."
"You still have us!" Davi frowned.
"Equal love. I'm sure you already know about father's motto, right?" Valerie shook her head. "As I said, the talent would be out during his childhood, and the Griffith Family would surely make their moves together with the other countries. If they got him, Theo might have become a mindless soldier for the sake of the family.
"I wish we could do something, but even with the War God Family, it wasn't enough. Only if we control the enemy, which is the Griffith Family, can we stop their movements completely. And since Theo's talent is blooming this late, they won't know how talented he is… either he is a late bloomer or a very talented one.
"For now, his situation is okay and I hope he can stay this way until he reaches Supreme Rank. Well, I can't explain all the Griffith Family's affairs." Valerie stopped.
"Whatever." Davi sighed. "What do you want me to do?"
"I want you to lure the Red Lion. After that, you can go protect Theo while we handle him."
"That is easy to do." Davi nodded. "I will do that. I have his general position for the time being, so okay."
"Thank you."
She then turned to Theo's Master. "Sorry for asking you to wait for seven years."
Theo's Master waved her hand and said, "You're the boss. I can only comply with the boss' order."
"Still, thank you for teaching him various things."
She shrugged. "I am just doing my job. Unfortunately, that boy seems to have developed a weird perspective about this world and the Griffith Family because of you two. I guess that's intentional?"
"Yes and no. You just need to know we want him to stay away from this family until he has enough strength."
"Not my problem."
"Fair enough. By the way, who has come for him?"
She pointed at Davi. "Him and Starry Group."
"I see. Well, I have no right to decide his future." She thought for a moment. "Either way, don't worry about other countries. We will stop them until he has chosen. Just make sure there is no one who has Mind, Poison, or Curse Ability around this place."
"He should be fine if the other party is a Supreme Rank, so I will focus on the Mythical Rank Experts."
"Okay. I will leave it to you." Valerie nodded and turned around. "Anyway, I think it's time for us to move."
Taking another look at the clock, Davi confirmed, and the four of them disappeared.
