Chapter 1983 Heroes Gather (2)
"Hoh. It seems that everyone has gathered here." A cheerful voice echoed inside the room as the Heavenly Sovereign entered. He might be the second oldest person in this room after Leonardo, but his behavior and appearance were indeed far from his age.
He waved his hand playfully while greeting everyone. "Hello, everyone. I don\'t know if you already know me, but I\'m Feng Hao. Nice to meet you."
"…" All the people inside the room were speechless. They were simply too surprised that the Heavenly Sovereign would act like this.
Feeling the atmosphere became awkward because of him, he couldn\'t help but glance to the side, pulling someone. "Why are you standing there? Come in and greet everyone."
"Wha—!" The other party seemed to be startled and tried to resist, but the Heavenly Sovereign ended up bringing her inside. "Master. Don\'t embarrass me."
The one he dragged was his disciple, Zhao Jia. In the end, Zhao Jia entered the room while looking down. Her face was red, ashamed of her master\'s childish action.
"Come on. You don\'t have to be that serious." The Heavenly Sovereign chuckled while introducing her. "This is my disciple, Zhao Jia. Please take care of her!"
"…" No one couldn\'t say anything. No, they simply couldn\'t react to the Heavenly Sovereign\'s action.
In the end, someone tried to stop him. He had just arrived and had already seen this kind of scene, making him shake his head helplessly. "What are you doing? Your disciple will have a scar for the rest of your life, you know."
Two men entered. They were the Sword Saint and the Transcendent Level Expert that Theo once visited, the former clan leader of the Shibuya Clan, Shibuya Tatsuo.
Both of them were more formal and dignified as they politely bowed to them. "Nice to meet you, I\'m Nasagawa Ken, and next to me is Shibuya Tatsuo."
Seeing their action, some people couldn\'t help but nod to them as if trying to follow the bowing motion.
"We are the reinforcements from United Asia." The Heavenly Sovereign stood proudly while smirking. "Nice to meet you people from the union."
They didn\'t know what to say again with the Heavenly Sovereign coming to them. In the end, they decided to sit while waiting for Theo to come.
"Is this everyone?" The Heavenly Sovereign asked while looking around. He could see many famous people in the room, but there were only two Saints in this room, the Heavenly Sovereign and the Sword Saint.
So, he couldn\'t help but feel it was a bit lacking to fight against the current enemy.
The people knew the Mafia Queen should be in this room, but they remembered that the Mafia Queen lived far away from Theo, so she might not have come to the meeting.
Instead of her, there were several Transcendent Level Experts coming into the room. They were none other than the Transcendent Level Experts from Theo\'s group.
"Thank you for coming." As Theo\'s disciple, Rea stepped forward and bowed to them. "We have sent someone to tell him about the meeting. So, he\'ll be coming in a minute."
The Sword Saint only smiled, looking at her. When he arrived here, Rea had told him to live with her instead of in the place set up for them. So, he had been listening to a lot of stories from her.
Although the training was harsh and the battle involved her life and death, it was clear that Rea never regretted becoming Theo\'s disciple. As a father, the Sword Saint could only smile, knowing that his daughter had found her own path.
He didn\'t disturb her since she was acting as Theo\'s disciple and the vice leader of the group, not his daughter. He simply allowed her to do everything she had to do.
Ruth and Felix sat down as a pair. It seemed that their relationship had become much closer. Although no one said it directly, they had been treating both of them as a pair.
Meanwhile, Ava was wondering where she should sit. She wanted to come with Theo, but she knew that Theo had to lead the meeting personally, so it was better to sit somewhere else.
That was when she found Leonardo, who seemed to be waving his hand to call her after seeing her confused expression.
Ava jumped straight to his table while raising her paw as if greeting him.
"It\'s been a while, eh, Ava?" Leonardo smiled.
"Yes." Ava nodded furiously.
"We\'ll be fighting together this time. Please take care of me." Leonardo chuckled while extending his finger.
Ava held his finger as if shaking his hand before asking, "Do you mind if I sit here?"
"Be my guest."
While they were finding their seats, Rea looked around to see the preparation. She checked the map and all the data inputted inside, making sure it was the correct one.
…
Five minutes later.
There were footsteps echoing from the hallway, alarming the people inside the room. They knew that the only person who would come this late was none other than Theo.
All of them turned serious, looking at the entrance and waiting for Theo to appear.
When the people saw Theo, they couldn\'t help but smile. They remembered when Theo shocked the world in the tournament. They thought he could make it big, but in the far future.
They never expected that the weak student would manage to become one of the strongest, if not the strongest, in less than two decades.
After looking at their faces one by one to confirm their number and identity, Theo politely nodded to them before finally opening his mouth.
"Welcome. I\'m sure you\'ve heard about the report. Currently, the enemy is marching toward us. So, this meeting will be the last meeting to come up with a plan against our enemies.
"Some of you might have conflict, some of you might be friends. But just for this battle, I hope that everyone can let go of their hatred and grudge.
"I\'m not a hero, so I won\'t say this is for humanity. But it\'s true that living without the rest of humans sucks, so I\'d like to ask for your cooperation to save humanity."
