Chapter 1404 Agata and Theo
Coline was fired up as she immediately headed to the kitchen to prepare all the food. Meanwhile, the others were a bit relaxed since they had won the battle.
But Rea continued to work, dealing with all the people who were curious about Theo. She basically became Theo\'s spokesperson.
Of course, Theo had told them what she could say and what she couldn\'t. He just satisfied a bit of their curiosity.
Only after that did she get some time to talk with her father.
Meanwhile, Theo was sitting with Agata and Boris as they had a serious conversation going on.
Theo even lowered his head to apologize. "I\'m sorry."
"This… Why do you apologize?" Boris asked, not understanding the whole situation.
"I\'m afraid that the situation will become a lot more unpredictable from now on. I\'ll do my best, but I don\'t know how and when I can solve this problem. That\'s why I\'m afraid that I can\'t marry her yet."
"…" Boris was shocked at first, but he soon got disappointed that the conversation suddenly turned this way. "Is that it?"
"Eh?" Theo raised his head in confusion.
"You are still too young. Waiting for another decade for marriage is normal. Public opinion is important, but that doesn\'t really matter." Boris shrugged. "It\'s not like you rush your marriage."
"Well…" Theo scratched the back of his head. He glanced at Agata, who might be disappointed about his decision. But she also shook her head, agreeing with her father\'s statement.
"There\'s no rush. We still have like one hundred years to live anyway." Agata shrugged. She smiled and assured him instead. "Besides, you are now living here again. Meeting you and living with you is enough."
"I don\'t mind that. Though, where is your home? Is it the same mansion?" Boris asked.
"No. I\'m planning to move out. Well, I\'m going to finish the deal as soon as possible. After acquiring the land, I\'m going to build the house there."
"Need help?"
"I\'m going to use my power to create the buildings, so I\'ll handle it myself."
"Alright then. If you need some help, just call me."
"Thank you." Theo nodded with a serious expression.
"Since there\'s nothing to discuss anymore, I should leave. It\'s your time, so enjoy it." Boris smiled and patted Theo\'s shoulder before leaving the couple alone.
"Is that what you\'re worried about right now?" Agata asked. "I mean, there\'s no need to rush for marriage."
"I\'m sure you know the problem if we haven\'t married, right?" Theo glanced at Agata.
"Pretty much." Agata nodded with a nonchalant expression. "People will force you to leave me so that you can enter a political marriage. From your expression, it seems that the problem is more troublesome, so the chance is pretty high. This is the best way to bind you into a certain influence after all."
"Yeah. That\'s why I am a bit rushed." Theo let out a long sigh. "Though, a part of me also wants to show it…"
Agata smiled. She just laid down her head on his shoulder and held his hand, saying, "No need to trouble yourself with this. I believe we can overcome anything. You can handle the parents and I\'ll handle their daughters. At least Alea, Nella, Maya, or Rea are better options… Though, I\'m going to monopolize you, hehe…"
"Well, I don\'t have that intention. For now, I think you need to know about the real situation." Theo explained about the original him briefly.
Agata was surprised by the fact that Theo was just a clone created by skill and became real after reviving himself. And now, there was his original that came back from death.
"I see. So, that\'s why you are so troubled. What? \'The only one who can defeat me is myself\' type of situation?" Agata smirked, thinking the only person in the younger generation that could defeat Theo was only himself. So, the Original Theo came back to defeat him.
"Yeah. And I don\'t know how to deal with this problem since I can\'t see a way to fish the Griffith Family out of their water."
"Well, a way will eventually appear as you get stronger. So, why don\'t you relax a bit? If you want to throw a bait, you should wait for a few days so that they have time to gather some information and make some meetings. That\'s the right time to drop the bomb… I mean, the bait."
Theo nodded in agreement. "Yeah. That was my plan."
"How about our house?"
"Grandfather told me that he would help me to speed up the buying process. I should be able to get the deed tomorrow or the day after."
"So, are you going to stay in your previous mansion for the next couple of days?"
"Well, the construction should only last for one day, but I think I\'ll stay here for a moment."
"Ah, where is the base anyway?"
"Thirty miles from here. There\'s a plot of land with a small lake and hill."
"Ah, that place!"
"Because the place hasn\'t been developed yet, I get it pretty cheap. And because that place will be built from my power, it\'s good to be a bit away from the city. I just have to make a road connected to the city."
"I see. The road won\'t be created from your power, right? Let me call the construction company. Contacting Maya right now won\'t be a good option right now."
"I guess."
"Anyway, do you have all you need like decorations or materials?"
"That can be created with my power."
"Alright. I\'ll go with you just to make sure you don\'t forget anything."
"Thanks." Theo smiled.
"In that case, let\'s go back to the others. I\'m sure they aren\'t going to start the party without us."
Theo and Agata smiled at each other as they finally walked back to the garden, where they held the celebration for their small victory.
It was the time for the Mota Family, the War God Family, the Sword Saint, and Theo\'s group to meet each other as they celebrated Theo and Agata\'s relationship.
