Chapter 1218 Decision

"…" Jeff facepalmed as he looked away, thinking, 'I obviously know your personality, you cooking maniac! I was trying to warn you to hide that excessive behavior so that he could accept you easily and not be disgusted by you.'

Coline couldn't see his intention because all she thought was the illusion that could make her see the flaw of her dishes.

Theo even confirmed that she could use this ability even without him in the future, so the recreating ability would be extremely precious in the long run. She might even become the best chef in the world if she followed him for decades. There was no way she could resist the temptation.

As Jeff predicted, Theo was dumbfounded because of the sudden personality change. Coline looked like a calm and mature woman earlier, but his illusion somehow changed her personality completely.

Even Theo didn't know what to say at this point since Coline looked like a crazy woman instead of a weird one.

In the end, Theo closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm his heart down.

It was then Coline woke up from her obsession.

"Ah!" Coline's body trembled as she immediately took a step back and bowed to him. "Wait, wait, wait! That's… That's…"

She wanted to explain her behavior earlier, but Theo's reaction looked like he was disappointed and freaked out, so she might have busted her own chance.

Theo pinched the bridge of his nose as if he was contemplating whether he should retract his offer or not.

"Please let me explain! That's just a weird behavior of mine. I didn't usually act like that… I am just a little bit obsessed with cooking sometimes. Sorry if you're scared or something."

Coline tried her best to straighten things up and ultimately looked at her best friend to help. Jeff, of course, had trouble persuading Theo, especially when he knew about his real identity and character.

'Don't stick in crazy… I guess he's thinking about it right now. How do I even help her at this point… Still, she is my and Monica's best friend. I need to help her at the very least.' Jeff pondered.

After a minute, Jeff said, "As she said earlier, she didn't act that way normally. If we completed the base, you didn't need to deal with that behavior anymore since she would be too focused on playing with that ability instead.

"Her cooking skill is top-notch… In fact, among the best in the world. If what she said was true… your ability could perfect her dish. After some time, she might become the best chef in the world. Don't you like to have the best chef in the world as your personal chef?

"She can also fight and her fighting prowess is similar to mine. Since she is my sister's best friend, she can stay in my mansion. I'm sure my sister would love to have her in our house.

"And she can—"

Before Jeff finished, Theo let out a long sigh and said, "Jeff, you're too desperate."

"Ah." Jeff stopped. Although he wanted to help more, he really didn't know what he should do to persuade Theo.

Meanwhile, Coline was completely terrified. She dropped to the ground and almost had a mental breakdown. She even clutched her head as if she had done something that she would regret her entire life.

But the worst had yet to come. Theo opened his mouth again, saying, "I have decided."

With that low voice that looked like he had given up on her, Coline wanted to say something to stop him, but when she raised her head, she saw Theo extending his hand to her.

"Eh?" Both Coline and Jeff widened their eyes, not believing what had just happened.

"I welcome you to my group."

"Eh?!" Coline panicked, not knowing what to do.

"What? You don't want to? Well, I guess I'll retra—"

Seeing Theo was about to retract his hand, Coline hurriedly shook Theo's hand with both hands and said desperately. "I want, I want, I absolutely want!"

"That's good then. Well, Jeff can give you a detailed explanation about our group, and you can start applying to move to another country because I'm afraid you can't stay in this country anymore."

"That's absolutely fine. To pursue the ultimate food, I can move to all countries."

"Alright. You should listen to Jeff first about the group. You can decide after that." Theo nodded before looking at Jeff. "You take care of her and probably stay in this country for another few days. I'm going to rest at the hotel tonight and head to another country tomorrow."

"I understand." Jeff agreed without hesitation.

"Alright then. I'll return first. You don't need to follow me." Theo waved his hand and left the house. Jeff agreed simply because a person as great as Theo would be under surveillance, so he knew he would be safe. Even a Mythical Rank Expert wouldn't attack him easily since Theo had shown the power that only a Mythical Rank Expert could exert.

Provoking him wouldn't be a good idea.

As for Coline, she dropped to her knees, feeling relieved. She was sweating as if she had just fought a hard battle.

"Now, now. What should I do with you…" Jeff clutched his head, feeling the headache because of what happened earlier.

"I…" Even Coline realized that was a bit excessive. She looked down, feeling guilty. "Sorry."

Jeff let out a long sigh. "Well, whatever… Even though I'm working for him, Joker is a man who will make a decision for the best outcome he desires. If he invited you, it meant that would be the best.

"It's just… you really need to hold back for a while there. I can't really change his opinion, you know… In fact, nobody in the group can."

"Ugh."

"Well, that's enough for that. Since you've joined the group, I need to brief you about our group. I'm sure that it will blow your mind because for me, he's crazier than you…"

"Really?" Coline raised her head, surprised.

However, Jeff added, obliterating her again. "Of course, he's leaning to the cool and badass type while you're leaning to the horny and disgusting type."

"Ugh."
