Chapter 1164 Loser

"Kill!"

The battlefield became chaotic as the military finally reached Theo and Nella.

"Leave this to us." Cirina, Okho's direct subordinate, arrived and assured them. "Thank you for holding them back this whole time to the point none of them break through…"

Theo nodded. "Can you take care of the rest for us?"

"Certainly." Cirina nodded.

After that, Theo took a step back and hid behind the soldiers while Nella came to him, wanting to apologize.

"I'm sorry. if It wasn't because of me, we wouldn't face all this trouble." Nella bowed her head to Theo. She was aware that if the Griffith Family didn't aim for her, they would have a smooth battle.

Theo remained silent for a moment before asking, "Will they know the information about me?"

"I need to check their corpses after this. The Griffith Family usually places some transmitters along the way as well as their bodies, allowing them to communicate with each other from afar. If they have a transmitter, the other side will know about your identity. If they don't have one, they won't know."

"I see. How do they know where you are?"

"Ehm…" Nella scratched the back of her head, wondering how to answer this question.

"I believe that I have the right to know this, right?" Theo narrowed his eyes, reminding her that she had dragged him into this.

"Yes." Nella could only sigh and explain it to him. "There are two factions in the Griffith Family. The elder faction and the new faction. The elder faction is the original ruler of the Griffith Family while the new faction is formed by those who don't like the current Griffith Family. I belong to the new faction that is led by Ray Griffith… Ah, you might not know him, but I think you know Theodore Griffith. Ray Griffith is his father.

"He is sacrificing his life and his son's childhood to make them think they're on the same side while using that time to get stronger and learn how they manage the family. After the Grand Gaia Competition a few years back, they separated themselves from the family.

"I am currently replicating some of the ways the original Griffith Family uses to track people. But our faction is still not at the level of the old one. That's why their information network is better than ours.

"And this cooperation is actually a way of Ray Griffith saying thank you to the Star Group for helping his son when he was alive. That's why he sent me here since I was one of the most important people.

"Usually, I used a face mask, but because we wanted to thank you, I used my original appearance to show our genuine feeling. Of course, I used the mask most of the time. I took them off only before meeting you. But it seemed they used that slight gap to find me. That's how strong their information network is."

"Hmm? So, I am getting dragged to your internal strife now?"

"I'm sorry. That's all my fault." Nella lowered her head. "I thought it would be more polite to take off the mask first before our meeting… I should have taken the mask off when we actually met. If you want some compensation, I will prepare it."

"Just a fight with Winston can earn me a few billion, you know."

"…" Nella scratched the back of her head. "I will go on some more missions to get the money."

"That's enough." Theo sighed. "Put on your face mask and stay beside me for the time being. I'll handle the military."

"!!!" Nella was confused. It was clear that Theo was angry due to being dragged into this situation, but he still tried to protect her. "Why are you protecting me?"

'Why? I can't think of any reason?' Nella furrowed her eyebrows. 'My stature is quite petite, so I'm not that sexy. I am confident with my face, but that's all. Does he swing that way? I can't think of any reason other than that. But there is Theo…'

Nella was wondering why Theo protected her while Theo asked again, "Why? Is that a problem for you?"

"N-no." Nella furiously shook her head, thinking, 'Is it really like what I'm thinking? But… but…'

She was confused, but Theo simply stated, "Just do it. Two days later, I want you to meet me somewhere. I will tell you the compensation I need at that time."

"Ah!" Nella realized she was overthinking. Theo simply wanted the compensation since he was planning to extort her at that time. And she couldn't escape because it would mean the new Griffith Family wasn't trustworthy. When that happened, it would lead to more problems, especially if the Star Group joined hands with the old faction.

'So, that's how it is.' Nella felt somewhat hurt and relieved at the same time. She nodded in agreement. "I understand."

Theo then looked away, observing Felix's situation.

Felix and the two experts from the Griffith Family stood in front of each other. Because of the help from the military, Felix managed to severely injure both of them. The battle would be concluded sooner or later.

Suddenly, the Griffith Family opened their mouths. "Are you going to challenge the Griffith Family? A mere Joker and an assassin can be easily destroyed by the Griffith Family."

Felix didn't know why the last resort of these guys was actually their identity. It was clear that if he didn't kill them right now, they would come with more trouble in the future.

However, their words truly made him angry. Theo and his real identity appeared in his mind. With how brilliant Theo was, Felix knew one thing.

He said, "I know, I have been working in the dark for decades. I know how big the Griffith Family's influence is… I know they will be etched into history as one of the biggest hidden families."

"That's r—"

Before they spoke, Felix added one more thing. His tone became cold as his expression turned grim. "But… You've angered my master. There is only one result for those who provoke my master. There will be a time your power will be the one that destroys you. Griffith Family… Silently accept that your name shall be etched into history as the vanquished."

"You—!"

Felix leaped forward, not letting them say another stupid thing.

Despite their efforts, with the help of the military, Felix cut both of them while Okho also defeated the last Mythical Rank Expert, bringing the war to a close.
