Chapter 1136 Ergene's Qualification

Since the nuisance had gone, Theo turned back to Ergene and smiled. "As I told you earlier, I'd like to challenge you. What do I need to do?"

"…" Ergene still hadn't recovered from what had happened. She never thought there would be someone brave enough to harm the heir of the Bolhom Family. So, there was one question in her mind. "Are you going to kill me if I refuse?"

"Nope. We'll simply leave. However, I can assure you one thing… I'll be playing fair when challenging you." Theo stated with a calm tone, genuinely expressing his desire to recruit her.

"…" Ergene fell silent for a moment. "Can you even stay alive being chased down by the Bolhom Family? Before I do something, I need to know the risks first. After all, it won't be worth it to follow you (in case you win) and die because of them…"

Theo glanced at Felix and said, "Call Jeff and Chris here. We're going to weaken the Bolhom Family even further."

"I understand." Felix immediately took out his Skylink to get some help.

After that, Theo asked, "What do you think will happen after this?"

Ergene thought for a moment. "Most likely, the Bolhom Family will hunt you down… But because there's only one Mythical Rank Expert here and you're not local, they will bring only two or three Mythical Rank Experts with a bunch of Supreme Rank Experts.

"After all, people rarely travel with more than one Mythical Rank Expert because it's hard to get the permit for a Mythical Rank Expert. No matter where they go, they will be a force to be reckoned with after all.

"And seeing you calling those two names… I'm afraid that you're getting help from Mythical Rank Experts as well. Three versus three… The rest will be in my hand or you… I am a Mythical Rank Expert, so I shouldn't have any problems dealing with a bunch of Supreme Rank Experts.

"The Bolhom Conglomerate has 9 Mythical Rank Experts… Ten with that guy, but I think we will die the moment he returns. With that kind of injury as well as that guy's corpse, there's no way that they will let him off.

"If we can cut down two or three Mythical Rank Experts, we will be able to lower their number. At the same time, their family can't send all the experts… So, at most, we will only deal with five Mythical Rank Experts in the next wave. Four versus five… I can't think much more about this because I don't know about your people's capability.

"In addition, they would certainly hide this news until they killed you. And if you succeeded in killing a few of their Mythical Rank Experts, they would certainly have no ability to expose your deeds. After all, other organizations would investigate their current condition. To put it simply, using the media is the same as telling people to investigate them. If they know they've been weakened, other organizations won't hesitate to attack them.."

Felix widened his eyes when he listened to Ergene's explanation. He thought, 'According to the information, Khutulun was a female commander in the past. She accompanied her father on the battlefield and was quite talented on top of that. She was a woman with a brain and martial prowess… It seems that her blessing truly deserved its reputation. Still…'

Just like Felix thought, Ergene listed the biggest problem. "That plan can only work if I join you! If I give you to them, won't it be a different case? Staying neutral might put me in a bad situation, but I won't die."

Her gaze became fierce when she stated that sentence. She completely thought that Theo was still reckless about pinning down hope on her.

"You're mostly correct. However, you're missing a few things." Theo raised three fingers. "First, I'll introduce myself. I'm Joker from the Star Group. I'm here for a mission that involves the military hunting the Black Snake Group that is planning to destroy the base on the other side."

"What?!" Ergene widened her eyes. Although she had never seen him personally, she had heard his name from the locals. "So, you're planning to make me join the Star Group?"

"No. I'm creating a group of elites under me. There are already three Mythical Rank Experts and one Supreme Rank Expert. I want you to be the fourth Mythical Rank Expert." Theo shook his head.

"A group of elites…" Ergene frowned.

"Second, You are not within my calculation before killing that idiot. Last but not least, it seems that you're underestimating me… As long as they can hold their Mythical Rank Expert, I can deal with their Supreme Rank Experts? Unless they bring more than fifteen Supreme Rank Experts at once, they won't be able to defeat me."

Theo's statement blew her mind. Although she wanted to call him arrogant, she couldn't do it. Theo didn't show it, but he certainly had an aura of a warrior.

"That's why I want to ask you, what can I do to challenge you? I won't put you in danger until you join me." Theo smirked.

Ergene narrowed her eyes before raising her finger, pointing at her face. "Assuming that I agree with you, I need to confirm your age. Take off your mask… You might be able to change your voice, but I can see whether your face is real or not. Illusion or a face mask will be useless against me."

"!!!" Felix was startled because he had heard Theo's name a moment ago. If Theo took off his mask, he couldn't hide his identity anymore. 'Theodore Griffith is an illusionist, but she's a Mythical Rank Expert. That Magic Power won't escape her eyes.'

Unbeknownst to them, Theo took the mask off without hesitation, revealing his 'real' appearance.

But this appearance was different.

Theo had short red hair and fierce black eyes. On top of that, there were three diagonal claw wounds on his cheek, adding another charm to Theo's face.

On the one hand, these scars could become Theo's reason for hiding his face, simply because he was insecure that his face was ruined. On the other hand, it completely erased the doubt that Theo had another reason for hiding his face.

Little did they know, Theo was actually using his Order right now. After training his Reality vs Illusion with the Time God, Theo could make a real appearance like this.

Just like the sword he used to recruit Jeff, Theo learned a bit more about skin and hair's material. With his Order, he turned that material into reality, creating a perfect skin that one couldn't see through. Even the Magic Power didn't fluctuate.

At the same time, Theo even added a bit more details for the scars as well as eyes, giving a complete aura to his overall appearance.

'Is this enough?' Theo made a gentle smile, asking.

'Damn, he's handsome. The scars just made him even more handsome… No, wait. His age… There's no illusion or face mask… I guess this is his true appearance. His face, action, and voice… Yeah, he should be around 30 years old.' Ergene nodded with a calm expression. "Y-yeah. I've confirmed that you're younger than me."
