Chapter 1536 Protected

While Theo was holing up in his temple, the Griffith Family was facing the attacks from all directions.

Mason Griffith slammed his table while gritting his teeth. “Shit!”

He looked down and thought, ‘There are many who are trying to attack us this time. If not for the fact that Flora was with them, I would have killed all of them. Besides, it’s hard for us to live outside the union because the world isn’t that easy after the apocalypse. One wrong move, we’ll be surrounded by monsters. King Class and World Class Monsters might join hands to kill us. So, leaving this base is not an option.’

His anger rose even further when a call came through. The name presented on the Skylink was none other than Flora Wegener.

When Mason accepted the call, Flora looked at him coldly and stated, “I’m here to remind you, Mason. Don’t do anything that you’ll regret because even your family will have a hard time living outside the union. Just take a look at other Saints, unless they group up like this, they won’t last long. Even now, we haven’t heard anything from Anwar and Alexandra. Chand has died after being surrounded by World Class Monsters.

“I’m telling you here. You are still useful to me. That’s the only reason why you can still stay in this union. Maybe I should thank that Theodore Griffith that you’ve killed… Thanks to him, your Griffith Family has grown so weak.

“If it’s the previous Griffith Family, you will still be able to resist me even after this setback. No, should I say that you won’t even be affected?

“Unfortunately for you, all your strong allies have left you, and even your son, Ray, is opposing you. Right now, the Griffith Family is weak enough that you can only be my dog, Mason.” Flora made a smug smile as if she had gotten the biggest victory.

“Don’t be complacent, Flora Wegener.” Mason slammed the table. “If you think that you have won, then you’re wrong! I won’t go down just like this. Don’t push us too far or I’m going to make you regret it!”

“Hoh, scary.” Flora rolled her eyes, treating it as an empty threat.

Mason gritted his teeth and glared at her.

“Peace was never an option, Mason. This whole time, we’ve been fighting each other. And in the end, I’m the one who wins this war.” Flora smiled smugly, enjoying her victory and showing that the prize of this battle was the sole possession of the union. “Anyway, I have reminded you. I hope that you understand this in your heart… You can only live as my dog. The Griffith Family is indeed a good hunting dog that I need… Remember that, Mason.”

When she was about to close the video call, Mason smirked and said, “Theodore Griffith hasn’t died. We failed to kill him because there was an unknown figure who was stronger than me. She proclaimed to be the Goddess of Death, Hel. That’s why Theodore Griffith hasn’t died and probably, the one who caused all those deaths and chaos was him.”

Flora’s expression instantly changed when she heard that statement. “What did—”

Before she could confirm it, Mason hung up as if he had gained some dignity during that talk. Mason’s message was also clear. The fact that Theo hadn’t died meant there was a chance… No, knowing Theo, he would surely come back to repay everything that they had done to him.

In other words, the moment Theo came out to everyone to seek justice, he would certainly come for her and the Griffith Family.

This would annul her words about the condition of the Griffith Family. It was not her who kept the Griffith Family alive. They were her shield that stopped Theodore Griffith’s anger. If the Griffith Family died, Theo would instantly go straight to her.

In other words, if she let them die, her life would be in danger, especially with the fact that Theo had a Saint stronger than Mason.

However, Mason was annoyed by her, so he hung up ruthlessly after that information, not planning to explain it to her.

As he expected, Flora immediately called him back to hear his explanation, but Mason simply ignored her.

“Kh.” Flora was the one gritting her teeth this time. She even bit her nails in frustration, looking at the call that wouldn’t connect no matter what. “Mason, you bastard. Hurry up, accept my call.”

Flora just realized that Richard was actually Theo in disguise and Ricky’s death was related to Theo. The fact they could stay in two places reinforced the idea of the clone. That was why she was one hundred percent sure that Theo was the culprit.

However, Theo’s death had been spread to the whole union, making them lose the trust of the people. Even if they made a clarification, the disappointment and the loss of trust wouldn’t disappear.

And the fact that Theo could actually raise one’s skill rank alone was enough for him to go all around the world to be appreciated as a hero. Lastly, Maya was still connected to Theo. The moment she finished her airplane, it would be the time Theo left. It would be the time for her doom as well.

Her face became pale as the fear gradually filled her heart. This was the first time someone who hadn’t even gotten their Authority scared her this much.

On the other hand, Mason was smiling, knowing what kind of face Flora was making.

Suddenly, there was a visitor coming to his room.

“It seems that the opportunity for us to rise again has appeared.”

“!!!” Mason widened his eyes when he saw the original Theo coming into the room. “Where have you been this whole time?”

“I got enlightenment.” The original Theo shrugged. “I found a way to become an Authority.”

“Hoh… With two Saints on our side, we’ll be able to control the union once again. Good job. Still, I have a question. How do you get enlightenment? I know that it’s an opportunity of a lifetime, but the timing is rather too convenient for me to believe.”

“I don’t know. Either way, I’m not planning to focus on that question since it’s better if I can become a Saint as soon as possible.”

If the Fist Saint was here, he would wonder which Theo caused the divination to fail. After all, he once asked a famous person to see the future about Theo, but it failed abruptly. Even the Destiny Queen had done the same thing and got a huge setback as if someone had been protecting Theo, but no one knew which Theo was protected.
