That night, all the people in the event were shocked by the information.
All people were trying to find a way to get into Theo's class, considering they would get a higher chance of being selected. They even went all the way to bribe people.
For those who had a good background, they could utilize their background to do it, either threatening the ordinary person in Theo's class or bribing them in exchange for their position.
…
Anderson Family.
An old man with a long white beard was calling his dear daughter after hearing what happened in the event.
"I heard what happened. Did you do sothing bad to him by the way?" The old man asked.
Grace winked her right eye with a playful smirk. "Don't worry, Grandfather. I have done my best to receive the recomndation. In fact, I've received one. All I need to do is to behave well to make sure he doesn't retract the recomndation."
"Hoho, that's good." The old man nodded with a smile, proud of her action.
"Besides, I convinced my brother to switch classes before this blows up, but it seems I was too late."
"That good for nothing. To think he would actually choose that idiot from the Salvatore Family."
"Thankfully, he had agreed to switch and it beca the reason why Mr. Ary won the bet. Though, I don't know if this is a plus point or not… All I know is that he won't retract my recomndation."
"Haha, that's for the best. For now, there's a thin layer between the governnt and Theodore Griffith. If that layer pops, there'll be a huge clash between the two giants.
"On our side, the governnt has a lot of people and the Ti God along with the three Transcendent Level Experts like us. anwhile, on the other side, they have the Mirage Prince and Mafia Queen alongside the number one company in the world."
"Doesn't it look like our side is losing?"
"Exactly. That's why I don't want to provoke both sides. At the very least, I want to remain neutral, albeit the situation doesn't allow to do that. So, I want you to at least not make him an archenemy."
"I understand. I'll rember your advice."
…
Salvatore Family.
"That bastard!" A roar resounded across the entire mansion. The anger could be felt and no one dared to actually say anything.
The matter was too big. Not only did they receive this kind of punishnt, but the governnt was also blaming them. They wanted to nd the relationship again so that the governnt could still receive the skill upgrade.
They were shalessly putting all the bla on the Salvatore Family. And as expected, the people were fast to move.
Many influences, companies, and organizations were pulling back from the Salvatore Family. At the very least, until they received the skill upgrade.
Of course, they were also blaming the Salvatore Family for creating this conflict. If only Eric didn't show off and even humiliated Theo, the situation wouldn't reach this point.
And Eric only had to kneel to Theo since he lost his bet. Not only did he annul his own promise, but he was also backed up by his brother, the head of the Salvatore Family. There was no escape from it.
In the end, the situation beca extrely complicated and the Salvatore Family took the full brunt of Theo's anger.
They didn't know that Ary Tjahaja was actually Theo in disguise.
…
Kentucky.
There was actually soone who couldn't stop smiling after learning about the conflict. It wasn't Agata who was Theo's fiancee. Instead, it was his disciple, Rea.
She had been replaying the video for two hours and the smile still hadn't disappeared from her face.
She couldn't help but rember what Theo told him when she wanted to be his disciple.
"I want to ask you this last question. Becoming my disciple is forcing to make a commitnt. Becoming my disciple ans I'm going to protect you. If the world wants you to die, I'll destroy the world itself. If the king of hell wants to torture you, I will bring you back. Do you have the commitnt to be my student?"
The target this ti was the Salvatore Family. It must be because of her that Theo specifically targeted the Salvatore Family instead of the monsters hiding among the humans.
The King of Fighters once tried to pressure her when she beca the leader of the army for the first ti. After knowing that matter, Theo finally let him learn what it ant to touch his people.
Since he couldn't easily tell the world that he didn't accept anyone from the Salvatore Family because Rea was inexperienced at that ti, he created this kind of sche so that he had enough reason.
And it worked.
Rea smiled, knowing what it ant to have Theo on her back.
'If the world harms , he'll destroy the world…' Rea clenched her fists and swore once again. "I'll do my best to not disappoint him even if it's the last thing I'll do."
…
The entire area was filled with ruckus after what happened earlier. However, the situation was completely different in Theo's room.
In fact, it was filled with a light atmosphere and laughter.
"Hahaha, you're too good, Theo. You finally taught them a lesson after pressuring your disciple. You're too overprotective."
"No, I don't." Theo shook his head with a calm expression.
"Well, that doesn't change the fact the problem lies in the hidden monsters. Now that you have beco famous, what are you going to do if they're going to be careful around you?"
"Actually, I already have the plan to use soone else to beco the bait. But that idiot was the perfect bait… I also wanted to hit the Salvatore Family back. So, I guess I managed to kill three birds with one stone.'
"Hoh? It ans your plan has succeeded?"
"Of course."
"What are you planning to do next?"
Theo smirked. "You just have to wait. I'm going to show you sothing interesting."
"Hoh? I'm looking forward to it. Am I going to participate in it again?"
Theo gave a thumbs up as the two let out a sly smile as if they knew it was going to be exciting.
