Chapter 1316 Nella’s Suspicion

  ”!!!” Theo was shocked that Nella managed to see through him. Still, Nella was aware of his real ability as well as his group, so she should be able to predict something like this.

”Sure, pretty lady. Since you’re that persistent, I can spare a few minutes with you.” Theo smiled.

The two understood their roles and immediately slipped away, walking to an uncrowded area.

They even went to a restaurant that had a service of a private room so that they could talk.

As soon as Nella confirmed their safety, she finally said, “It’s been a while.”

”Yeah. Not that long though.” Theo nodded in agreement. “What do you want from me?”

”I want to warn you that this mission reeks of schemes.”

”Do you think I can’t see that? I’m already aware of the possibilities.”

”Still, to think they’re gathering your past comrades. I don’t know whether this is a coincidence or not, but this is going to be extremely dangerous. They’re trying to lure you out since there’s no way you’re gonna let your friends in danger.” Nella sighed, feeling troubled with this entire mission.

”But I don’t think it’s to that extent.”

”Reason?”

”They’re just planning to confirm my existence to prepare their plan a few months later.”

”Are you planning to go to Italy and reveal your identity?”

”Yes. That’s the reason I’ve been working hard this whole time.”

Nella paused for a moment and said, “In that case, I have a proposal. How about letting me join the group?”

”Letting you join the group? I have submitted the profile of the people joining the group, you know.” Theo shook his head helplessly. “It’s impossible to do that.”

”Your power can turn me into someone else, right? I don’t think you’re planning to have the Phantom Archer by your side.”

”You’re already aware of her existence in my group?” Theo raised his eyebrows.

”That’s the power of the Griffith Family.”

”I feel like you’re going to be an extremely powerful spy in the future.” Theo chuckled.

”That’s right. I’ve heard that you’re establishing a unique group. How about me? Have you considered me? No, more like I want to join.”

”You are affiliated with the Griffith Family, right?”

”But even then, it will be a long while until I take the helm of the new Griffith Family since Uncle Ray will at least rule a few decades to reform the family. I can work with you for that period.” Nella smirked.

”That’s kinda tempting even to me.” Theo closed his eyes for a moment.

”How is it? I can be someone who is in charge of espionage.” She smirked.

”Well, I’ll consider it for the time being.” Theo shrugged.

”Fine. I’m looking forward to your positive reply.”

”You’re pressuring me.” Theo sighed before narrowing his eyes, returning to the previous topic. “Still, you want to try to become the Phantom Archer?”

”Yes. When I’m with you, I can use some of my tools to see the surrounding area, preventing any ambush from a third party. Of course, this entire mission will be filled with attacks, but I’m trying to warn you about the party that’s not supposed to join the fray.”

”Is there any relationship between the Griffith Family and this Poison King?” Theo asked.

”We don’t have any record of it. So, I can’t say for sure.”

”How about you? Are you here on your own or on behalf of…” Theo paused, feeling a bit weird to call them his parents anymore.

Nella also understood the current relationship and answered before the atmosphere turned awkward. “I’m here on my own. Even though we’re hiding, it’s not like we’re holing ourselves up for a long period of time. I’m free to do something like this as long as I’m not getting found out.”

”Fair enough. Your disguise is truly hard to discern.” Theo nodded in agreement.

”That’s the same for the Griffith Family. You won’t realize they’re around you. In addition, their information network is extremely powerful and vast. That’s why Uncle Ray couldn’t even leave Thersland before it was too late.” Nella sighed. “If only they were in the UK when doing this, I could convince them to marry you to me.”

”Oi.” Theo’s eyebrows twitched.

”I mean, we’re seven generations apart, so we can be said not to be connected by blood anymore.” Nella pouted.

”I’ve heard that excuse so many times. Even if there is no blood relation, there is still an emotional relation. Only an abnormal guy can love his relative in that way.”

”Fine, fine.” Nella chuckled. “So, we have a deal?”

”Yeah. I’ll inform her after this and change my plan a bit. If you’re helping me in surveying the area, it’ll be a lot easier.”

”Great!” Nella smiled. “Still, I’m wondering how you’re going to break the news to Alea. If you do this poorly, the Eilric Family will be influenced by the Griffith Family and end up retaliating against you. It’ll surely make your plan fall apart and you won’t feel good either.”

”Leave me alone in that matter.”

”Okay. Then, one last question. Are you planning to meet them, or do you just want to watch them from afar?”

”The latter. Revealing my identity will be dangerous right now, but if needed, I won’t hesitate. The World Martial Institute and the Empress’ palace both had someone in the top one hundred people in the world, so I don’t think they’re going to be that extreme.

”At the same time, our enemies this time won’t be that easy, considering we have twenty Mythical Rank Experts escorting this so-called Poison Princess.”

Nella looked at Theo’s confusion and asked, “If it were you, how would you attack the group?”

”Multiple ways. But I’ll try to divide them in most scenarios. After separating them enough, it’ll be easier to defeat these people. And the worst part is… I wonder if the experts that escorted the Poison Princess would actually betray us or not.” Theo sighed.

”Too much trouble.”

”True. Well, if you still want to follow me, come to my room two days later.”

”Got it.”
