Chapter 1312 Reunion?

"So, you want me to go to this place." Theo read the mission that Maya gave.

"Yep." Maya nodded with a serious expression. "There is something wrong with the situation there. It's not a terrorist organization or a subjugation mission. Instead.."

Theo narrowed his eyes as this was the first time he got this kind of mission.

Mission: Guard the Poison Princess.

"A bodyguard mission, huh." Theo furrowed his eyebrows. "This doesn't suit me much, to be honest."

"That's what you're thinking, but there is something you need to know about this person."

"And that is?"

"She is a rising star like you. Her poison is unmatched, and not many can neutralize her poison. It's so lethal that you will have a hard time resisting that poison with your Magic Power. She's a person you don't want to be an enemy.

"Also, the mission is only to bring them to a certain place. After that, there's no need for protection as her father, the Poison King, will take care of the rest.

"I'm sure you know about this, but both the Poison King and the Poison Princess can easily kill thousands of people without anyone noticing. If we clear this mission, they promise to never harm anyone from the Star Group, including your group."

"Mhm?" Theo looked down, contemplating.

On the one hand, the Poison Princess was indeed a powerful expert. On the other hand, he didn't feel like going because it would be too much trouble.

"Can you do this for me? Think of it as me asking you for the benefit of the group. I know that your Death Avatar can protect you, but how about the others?"

Theo pinched the bridge of his nose, not knowing what to say when Maya asked him like this.

"One question."

"Okay."

"Don't you think it's easier to eliminate the threat if we just kill the Poison King?" Theo asked with a cold tone.

Instead of getting his cooperation, it was better to kill the Poison King since he was too dangerous.

"From what I know, the Poison King is planning to challenge the King Class Monster in Italy.. What's the place's name again? Dark Poison Swamp? He is ranked 24th in the world list, so it's not wise to offend him easily."

"Challenge the King Class Monster?" Theo paused for a moment, thinking, 'It's said that an Order won't be completed unless they gather every Order into one. That's why there won't be another Lightning Authority unless the current Lightning Authority and all Lightning Order possessors die. In other words, the Poison King is planning to merge the two Poison Orders to form a Poison Authority.

'It seems that I have underestimated the enemy this time. Although it's true that my Death Avatar can handle the poison, the Order and Authority are much stronger than my Death Avatar. They can turn my Death Avatar into poison itself. Meaning he will be extremely dangerous.'

There were many things that he needed to think of, but Maya suddenly took out another document. "Ah, by the way, it seems that this movement attracts too many people this time. It's said that they need at least another ten Mythical Rank Experts from outside help, so it means you won't be the only one to go."

Theo received the document and opened it.

However, he was stunned the moment he saw the profile picture.

"You serious?" Theo's eyebrows twitched.

"Yes. I don't know whether this is a coincidence or not, but what do you think about having a reunion?" Maya smirked.historical

What Maya meant by reunion was the fact that the Star Group was planning to join hands with two other influences to handle the problem.

World Martial Institute.

Empress' Palace.

The one that would come from the Empress' Palace was obvious. It was Alea Eilric.

Although Maya was an eccentric character, she wouldn't suggest taking this mission just so he could meet Alea. After all, their relationship would be ruined after Alea knew about his plan to propose to Agata.

The reason why she still suggested this trip was the World Martial Institute. After looking at their profiles, Theo realized it was time to meet his old friends.

Ellen Marcines.

Phyrill Hilbert.

After graduating from Thersland, they headed to a college in Egypt. Egypt itself was a country known for their extraordinary researchers, since many famous researchers hailed from this place.

And World Martial Institute was one of the best colleges in the world that taught not only Martial Arts but also an extensive amount of knowledge.

Phyrill took Ellen to this place after getting offered by them due to their performance in the Grand Gaia Competition.

And now, they were sending a few Mythical Rank Experts and twenty Supreme Rank Experts. Ellen and Phyrill were among them.

In other words, if he joined this mission, he would be able to meet all of them at the same time.

However, Theo was contemplating whether it would be alright to do it. After all, when he visited Japan, he didn't meet Laust because he didn't want to cause unnecessary problems with others knowing his identity.

So, even if he met them here, he wouldn't really take off his mask.

But the problem was the fact that these three would have realized it in an instant. After all, Joker itself was his persona that all his team members from the Grand Gaia Competition were aware of.

Theo thought for a moment and said, "All of them should know about Joker, you know. Going there is the same as suicide."

"If it's you, you can go there without your identity as a Joker, right? I mean, as a friend, you should be curious about their conditions, no?" Maya asked again.

"That's true." Theo looked at the ceiling while taking a few deep breaths, disturbed by many pros and cons. Ultimately, he gave a condition. "I will impersonate Mark."

"That's easy, but are you sure about that? Can you even imitate his wind?"

Theo raised his hand and formed a small tornado on his palm.

"This is.. not an illusion." Maya gasped, seeing a different Magic Power from an illusion skill.

"I can imitate his power to a certain extent. But I still want my people to take part in this."

"That can be done. I'll also talk to Mark about it."

"Okay then. I'll depart tonight." Theo nodded and rose from his seat, planning to leave. It wouldn't be a reunion, but he didn't mind checking their condition. However, Theo also added, "My main objective is not the reunion, okay?"

"Okay?" Maya was confused but still nodded her head.
