Chapter 518 - Goodbye
Hearing that response, Theo couldn't help but slam the table. "So, you're not going to explain it to ?"
"I have told you I don't know. All they shared was their story, not the information regarding the Griffith Family. Besides, it is mainly for the Griffith Family's heir, not an outsider like ." Edward shook his head with a calm expression.
It was clear that Edward didn't ntion anything regarding the Griffith Family this whole ti. Only about his parents and the Eilric Family. Although they were part of the Griffith Family, their story wasn't related to the core of the Griffith Family.
"However, I have one warning to you though." Edward raised his finger.
Theo snorted. "What?"
"Be careful of the Mind Elder. I am not sure about his identity and appearance, but it seems he has the power to alter your mory. This is the only thing I know after I overheard their conversation in the past.
"They seem to be wary of the Mind Elder. Even the War God Family is protecting you, the mont you get caught, your life is basically forfeited. Or even worse, you will beco a mindless soldier." He shook his head. "I don't know whether you care about your life or not, but think about your descendants as well. Your children, your grandchildren, or even great grandchildren. That's all I can say about the Griffith Family."
"…" Theo fell silent, especially after listening to the last ssage. Now that he thought about it, if he joined the Griffith Family, he would also need to leave the Griffith Family in the future due to this so-called tradition, so his children would undoubtedly experience this as well.
Though it might be at Nella's level, he didn't know the rule of the Griffith Family, so he might experience sothing in the middle of his parents and Nella's parents.
And after that, his grandchildren would continue living this way while he couldn't leave the Griffith Family since he would be a grandparent at that ti.
He also understood the graveness of entering the Griffith Family, especially with his talent. Even his father got an exception to beco the head after completely separating himself from the family.
And he soon realized if his father had enough strength, there might be sothing he could do for him.
He didn't know how much stronger he needed to avoid that kind of suppression.
Still, he believed there was a better plan than this. He might not know about the power of those elders from the Griffith Family, but he thought the War God Family was a better choice.
'Wait a minute.' Theo stopped his thought process when the War God Family ca into the picture. He soon rembered what Agata said about his grandfather's motto.
'Doesn't this an I can get sothing big from all these eighteen years? There is also my achievent as the MVP of the Grand Gaia Competition. Did they want to go to the War God Family to seek refuge with this kind of reward?
'In the anti, with all the resources of the War God Family, I can increase my strength as soon as possible, like reaching Supre Rank within two years. It sounds feasible with all those resources.
'Or are they power hungry people who want to rule both worlds? If the two families join hands, not many can fight them… But if this was the case, why would my father leave the family at first and rejoin later?
'Is he trying to stop the Griffith Family from finding from the inside? Or is he planning to use ? Still, my bro…ther is a Supre Rank Expert. It should be easy for him to protect . Why did he leave without giving any information or ssage? Is there sothing more behind this entire lie?
'So, did they want to go to the War God Family? Should I spoil their entire plan by going to the US? Receiving Maya's offer seems to be the sa as the War God Family? If I can do sothing more for that Starry Group, I may receive sothing bigger from the War God Family.
'However, if I go to the War God Family, I can practice my Awareness as well as my strategy. After all, this will beco more important to later on.
'I know that both of them are good for , but it's sothing that I will decide later on. It's not sothing I should decide in this place.' Theo looked at his brother with a grim expression as if he had made the decision.
Edward also knew it was ti to part ways.
"Do you have anything else to say?"
"…" Edward remained silent for a minute. "No."
There was no word that needed to be exchanged anymore. Theo didn't feel like listening to his story after all this.
After seeing the equipnt around here, he realized his brother had been visiting the Earth from ti to ti to buy all these things. Then he must know about his condition if he genuinely cared about him. Or even worse, he didn't care about him anymore.
Either way, since his brother never spared his ti visiting him, Theo didn't wish to see him anymore.
"My life has been a lie this whole ti." Theo's face beca solemn. "You said no one wanted to live more than my parents. If this was what they ant by living, why didn't they just put in an orphanage? My childhood was filled with torture to the point I sotis thought it was better for to die.
"Still, I had several wishes that kept going, only to find out that everything was a lie. That's why… From now on, you're Edward and I'm Theo. That's all to it." Theo said their nas without their family na, implying they were strangers from this point on.
Theo lowered his head and said with a serious tone. "This is my last bow to you for protecting from all those Supre Rank Experts. I will consider it even for the fact you're indifferent toward this whole ti as if you want to die."
Theo paused for a mont and straightened his back. He walked to the door and opened it, leaving Edward alone.
When he was about to leave, Theo stopped and said his last words before leaving… "This will be the last ti I call you this… But… Thank you, Brother… and goodbye."
