Chapter 289 - Falling Apart

After that, the medical team carried him back as the doctor checked his condition. Even Rai and Radvils returned to the team, trying to discern his injury.

Unfortunately for them, the doctor could only shake his head. "I am sorry, but he has lost consciousness. It's better to send him to the hospital to get better medical care."

"…" Radvils' expression darkened as he glanced at Rai, who agreed with the doctor.

"The injuries are not that much, but his body can't take it anymore. He may also need a blood transfusion later, but for now, it's better to get him to the hospital. The ambulance is ready downstairs," The doctor added.

Radvils nodded with difficulty, saying, "I understand. Thank you."

"Well, I will be with him." Rai raised his hands. "He should be fine in one or two days after applying some medicine and rest."

"Yeah, I will leave him to you." Radvils ultimately sent Theo off. "I will get the president's support for you, so give him the best treatment."

When they had left, Radvils turned to the team with a serious expression. "So, did he tell you anything?"

"Sir. What do you think will happen to Theo?" Ellen asked with a concerned expression, thinking nothing about the competition.

"He's going to be fine. It's you who are in trouble." Radvils shook his head helplessly. "I ask you again. Did he tell you anything? I gave him the right to deal with the competition according to his judgment, but this made me clueless about his plan. That's why I need to know his thoughts from you guys."

Sadly, all of them looked down, not being able to answer him.

Radvils facepalmed and let out a long sigh. "Nothing? Seriously?"

"After returning from the first match, Theo didn't say anything to us." Ellen raised her hand in disappointment. "Then, Alea told him that Clark is injured and can't fight with his full power. At that time, he only said he would think about it and left."

"Seriously?" Radvils sighed.

As Nella said, Theo might win the battle, but she was the one who won the war. Without the brain, the team ceased to function, not knowing how to handle the United Kingdom Team.

They didn't know the current plan and might choose a different option than Theo's. They recalled what happened in their first battle against the Italy Team.

Theo only told them a few things to gain a massive advantage, but the advantage soon disappeared because they couldn't properly utilize it. In other words, without Theo, they wouldn't be able to perform perfectly and might lose this battle.

Knowing the team had grown too reliant on Theo, Radvils said, "Either way, I will take charge of this team for now. Phyrill, you can rebuke my plan if you don't like it, but this is my plan…

"Theo has proven the effectiveness of the plan, so we're going to use the same strategy that managed to defeat the Italy Team. Alea, Phyrill, and Laust are to challenge the last battle. Ellen, Sihan, you two will fight in this round. Is that a problem?"

Sihan looked down, knowing that with Theo, they might be able to shine at one point, but because of the current situation, they became the sacrifices again.

Ellen, on the contrary, nodded her head without hesitation. "I understand. Even with Theo explaining all his plans, I couldn't understand half of them. I will follow this plan until Theo returns. Also, if we can finish this match as soon as possible, we can visit him."

"Ellen." Alea furrowed her eyebrows before looking down, knowing this was the best thing they could do without Theo.

"It's fine. I am more concerned about Theo than this match." Ellen shook her head and glanced at Sihan. "You are with me, right?"

Sihan ultimately agreed with her and asked, "Are we also going to wait until the time is almost up?"

"Yeah." Radvils nodded. "There aren't many things I can give you, so you can fight to the fullest without following any orders."

"…" The group looked down, thinking, 'If Theo were here, he would say a few things to get the first advantage in the next battle before a way to throw the enemy off, so we can defeat our enemy and shine in this competition.'

Unfortunately, no matter how hard they wished for him to be there, Theo couldn't just regain his consciousness and lead the team.

On the other hand, Nella enjoyed this situation as she made a smug smile when returning to the room even though she lost the battle.

"Hehe, we won!" Nella puffed her chest proudly.

"You little girl, I am going to beat you up! You were always trying to be serious, but you decided to bite the bait." Zara rose from the chair, fuming in anger.

"No need to say that. This battle turns in our favor now. If not because of me, Cousin won't be unconscious. With this, there won't be any daring strategy in the next two battles." Nella pouted.

"That's true." Clark nodded in agreement. "So, what is your plan?"

"Luka and Laura will win the next match. I'm sure Ellen and Sihan are the ones fighting against us. After all, we are desperate to win in this situation and it's hard to defeat Clark, Luka, and Zara together. Hence, Luka is going to be there to make them think they have this in the bag before destroying them in the next one.

"Clark is injured, so Scarlet and Zara are the ones who can make such a change. Clark will buy some time for the team by taking care of Phyrill and Laust. Zara and Scarlet can aim for Alea with your Brainwash skill. This way, our team should be able to win." Nella smiled. "What do you think?"

"I am fine." Laura glanced at Luka and extended her hand. "Will you be going?"

"Of course. There will be another two days to rest before the final, so Clark will be fine after that. With this strategy, we shall claim the victory of this year's competition." Luka grabbed her hand and rose from the chair. "Let's prepare ourselves, shall we?"

"Yes."

"Lady first."

Laura smiled and walked outside with Luka, heading to the corridor right before the arena to wait for the right time.

Clark had a serious expression on his face and closed his eyes as if he tried to focus.

Zara crossed her arms and sighed. "Fine. I will let you go this time since you have taken down that guy."
