"Have I miscalculated sothing?" Theo asked himself. He suddenly felt weird from these two monsters. "I don't know why but the tree seems to have changed during the battle. I taunted him with the fruit, but the tree shouldn't have used his trump card that easily.
"It feels like the tree is calling the dragon… However, it doesn't seem the tree is his ally. Then, why did the tree use the explosive fruit?
"How's about the dragon? I haven't heard anything about the dragon. Yet, it suddenly cos into the battlefield. It doesn't seem to be an ally as well… Is it going to join hands with the tree? Or is it going to create a battle royal?"
Theo muttered inwardly, trying to figure out the situation. This was the first ti everything completely went out of his plan.
Theo saw the dragon gathering bright red energy in its mouth. Because of the dragon's position, it didn't point its head toward the tree. Instead, the dragon aid the breath at Theo as if considering him an enemy.
The dragon opened its mouth and spat a huge ball of bright red liquid. The intense heat coming from the ball made Theo realize it was a ball of magma.
Without hesitation, Theo raised his left hand and used his illusion to erase the magma ball.
But the illusion soon lted. The magma looked like a lump of liquid that hit a wall. Even so, it still contained so montum to reach Theo.
"Kh." Theo clicked his tongue and jumped to the side, avoiding this lump of magma that ended up falling into the ground. Even the World Tree avoided the magma.
"This dragon is a World Class Monster." Theo determined the dragon as soon as he saw what the magma ball could do. Normally, he would take advantage of the nurical advantage to kill a World Class Monster. But this ti, the situation was reversed.
He had to take on two World Class Monsters in his current condition. Although his injuries were superficial, he had spent a third of his energy fighting the World Tree.
"…" Theo narrowed his eyes and saw the dragon halting a quarter mile from him. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Why are you here? I don't recall picking a fight with you."
The three dragon heads looked at each other before the right head laughed. The middle head shouted at Theo. "I ca here for no reason. My slumber was disturbed by the volcano. When I woke up, I saw a huge trail on the ground. So, I was curious."
Theo's eyebrows twitched. He never expected the dragon to co here without any great reasons. "Are you going to engage in a fight between two races? O' Dragon Saint?"
"I think you should change your words, human." The left head grinned. "Before I fell into my previous slumber, I had seen a lot of things that the humans did. And I could say I should exterminate them."
"What do you an? I don't understand. I could say a lot of things about humans, but I still don't think all humans deserve death." Theo narrowed his eyes.
"Even if we kill all the ones who deserve to die, the humans will produce more people like their predecessors. That's why to avoid future trouble, we have to make humans go extinct. And to think I would wake up at a perfect ti." The dragon smirked.
"I still can't understand what you're talking about." Theo gritted his teeth. He suddenly realized sothing. 'No, wait. The change of the World Tree and the sudden appearance of this dragon for no good reasons… Don't tell , because I have been stopping their attempts in resetting the world, they're trying to get involved a bit deeper into this situation?
'But these illogical things will cause a disruption to this reality. Are those higher beings so desperate to wipe the humans out even if it ans this reality will be distorted? When that happens, logic won't apply to this reality anymore.
'If that's the case…' Theo narrowed his eyes as he had been getting a ssage from Alexa.
"Theodore Griffith. Answer . There are two World Class Monsters right now. Should I co out?!"
Theo contemplated for a mont before saying, "No. I'll stop them by myself."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah," Theo confird it without hesitation. The fact that the higher beings tried to get involved in this situation deeper than they should ant there would be a crack in reality itself.
He had to find that crack so that this reality wouldn't collapse.
'Just like Newton's third law, for every action, there will be a reaction. There is going to be a backlash to those higher beings as well. And this dragon's appearance will cause another reaction… Since this dragon is my enemy, it ans the reaction will be my ally.
'Does that an the Ti God is forced to act this ti? Either way, I have to find the crack in this reality first to patch it up while fighting these two World Class Monsters.'
Theo took a deep breath. Everything started to stop making sense. But like the Heavenly Sovereign said, this was supposed to be an opportunity, not a disaster.
In fact, the Heavenly Sovereign might have calculated that the higher beings couldn't contain themselves anymore and started influencing their reality. But because he had predicted it, he knew there would be an opportunity for Theo to get sothing even more valuable.
Theo knew if he played his card right, he could trick reality into giving him another piece to play against the higher beings.
He couldn't help but smile as he raised his hand, waving it to provoke the two World Class Monsters. "This is the first ti I fight two World Class Monsters at once. In that case, let take a look at the two World Class Monsters' strengths!"
The dragon and the World Tree felt sothing different from Theo as if he knew sothing they were unaware of.
