BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1645 Agreement
"We\'ll wait for a bit until they commence an all out attack." Theo shook his head, stopping at the last second.
"Mhm?" The woman furrowed her eyebrows. "What do you mean? The longer you wait, the worse the situation will become, you know."
"Yeah. If we attack them right now, they\'ll still be able to react and create an escape route. But if they have sent all their people to the front, we\'ll be able to kill the shark. Though, there might also be some casualties on your side too."
"Mhm…" The woman couldn\'t help but smirk. This guy was insane in her mind. There was a deal between them when they met accidentally in Mexico.
Back then, Theo said, "Let\'s have a deal, Mafia Queen. The US Base is just right ahead, but I\'m sure the government doesn\'t like an existence like you, who will control the underground.
"That\'s why I\'d like to strike a deal with you. The government has granted me many lands in exchange for securing Kentucky, so I\'ll give you the land for you to operate until one of the nearby states is open to the public. We will just be neighbors and won\'t go at each other\'s throats.
"This should be a pretty good deal for you since you bring your entire group here," Theo explained the term with a smile, tempting the Mafia Queen.
Alexa was surprised that Theo dared to strike a deal with her, but as she said, it wasn\'t that bad. The base should be trying to restrain her movement as soon as she integrated herself into the base.
After all, the power balance between the government and the individual would be tipped over with her existence.
Currently, the government had close ties with the Time God and other Kings to keep Theo, his clone, and his subordinates in check.
But the moment she appeared on Theo\'s side, the government would attack them in order to regain the supreme power in the country. Although she didn\'t like to work either way, Theo gave her more freedom.
And if she accepted this condition, she would be able to stay under people\'s radar for the time being and gradually mix the people among the citizens. Of course, the people she rescued would start talking about how she helped them, giving away her existence.
However, that was when Theo came in. Theo planned to protect her existence from the government by using this deal. Even if they dared to put a leash on her, with her joining hands with Theo, they couldn\'t do anything to either of them.
This was a good deal for them since they could benefit from each other.
"Then, what do you want me to do for you?"
"Help me kill World Class Monsters."
"Hoh? You\'re trying to kill World Class Monsters? This is rather surprising, considering I don\'t remember you—"
"I have an Authority as well." Theo didn\'t hesitate to tell her about this term, which only a few knew about it.
Even the Mafia Queen was stunned, pausing for a moment. This time, she contemplated carefully. She hadn\'t had any contact with the outside world for a while, so she wasn\'t aware of his deeds. But when Theo released his Magic Power, she was convinced it was an Authority.
"I see…" The Mafia Queen closed her eyes for a moment before asking, "Do you have any confidence in taking down World Class Monsters?"
"My clone is a perfect clone, meaning you can count me as two Saints. I am aware that I\'m only a new saint whose strength still can\'t be compared to a World Class Monster. But if I join hands with my clone, I should be able to reach their level. And that\'s where you come in…"
"So, you want me to support you with my abilities? That\'s how you\'re going to surpass the World Class Monsters."
"Yes."
"Interesting. It seems that you want to hide my existence as well, though not for long… So, that\'s how it is. Are you planning to make me your trump card?"
Theo smiled. "The apocalypse was just a start. There would be an even more dangerous threat coming in the future. That\'s why I need you."
"The apocalypse was just a start…" The Mafia Queen remembered when Theo managed to solve the problem in Argelia. It was the sign of integration between the two worlds, while the apocalypse was that incident spreading all around the world. It was simple to connect Theo and the apocalypse, especially after seeing the video and Ray\'s reaction after people claimed Theo to be the world\'s enemy.
"I want to ask you one question and add one condition."
"Sure."
"I\'ll start from the condition. When you have gone to the top, I want you to protect my people."
"I believe I\'ve said it earlier. We\'ll be neighbors. As long as you don\'t harm my interest, I\'ll be your ally. You should know that I\'m not someone who will ignore my ally just because of sudden interest, right?"
"Of course." The Mafia Queen nodded. Theo was implying that if she became his ally, there wouldn\'t be any thought about harming her if he suddenly wanted something from her. Theo was fair and just, so he would probably trade or discuss things with her if he wanted something.
And this was enough for the Mafia Queen as she continued to the question. "I understand. This is a good enough condition for me. Well, this is only a verbal promise, but I\'ve been dealing with verbal promises since childhood. I have confidence I can discern which one is a true promise and which one is a lie.
"That\'s why I\'ll trust you with this verbal promise. If you ever break this promise, I\'ll fight with you even if it\'s the last thing I\'ll do." The Mafia Queen took a deep breath before asking a question with a serious expression. "Say… How far are you planning to go? The strongest expert in the world?"
Theo smirked and pointed at the top. "That\'s too low. Do you believe there is a being that can kill the Time God with a single thought?"
The Mafia Queen was shocked by his answer. Theo was truly insane. He was implying he wanted to deal with something far higher than the Time God. But at the same time, she felt he could truly do it.
It couldn\'t help but put a smile on her face. "Hahaha, you\'re insane, Theodore Griffith. However, I like it! I promise you that I shall be your ally."
