Chapter 273: First Meeting in Battle (1/2)

When he returned to the room, a staff member came to the room to inform them of everything regarding the game they would play.

”Excuse me.” The staff opened the door while carrying a silver pole in his right hand. ”I will explain the next game.”

Theo and the others nodded and asked him to continue.

”The game is a castle defense. The name aside, this is a game that requires three people.”

”…” Theo suddenly understood before he said everything. He thought, 'I see. One of us is required to hold the flag, huh.'

While they were listening to the staff's explanation, Sheira began her commentary.

”Ladies and Gentlemen. After one day's break from the last round, we are back with another new fight that is far more exciting than what we have seen so far. This is a battle between relatives. We have no information on why they fight for separate countries, but this is worthy of being called a fated battle.

”This is the first time I have seen relatives fighting each other in this competition. On one hand, Theodore Griffith has shown us his fighting coordination which can't be described by any word other than perfect. On the other hand, Nella Griffith has powerful Control that may give no chance for her relative to deal with her even with his clone.

”Will Thersland create another uproar by toppling the United Kingdom? Or will the United Kingdom prevail over its opponent? We shall bear witness to this great match.

”For now, let me announce the game for today's competition. Each team will send three participants where one of them is required to hold a flag signifying their country. Their objective is to steal the opponent's flag. As long as they take over the flag for one second, it's counted as their winning. That's all.” Sheira smiled and shouted. ”This may become a great advantage for Theodore Griffith because he has his clone to help him. In any case, without further ado, let's call the participants of the first round!”

”Uoh!” The cheers erupted as they all saw six people emerging from the gate.

”Here they are! From the United Kingdom Team, Nella Griffith, Zara Kennedy, and Luka Fletcher have taken the field! Meanwhile, from the opposite team… Surprisingly, they are Theodore Griffith, Sihan Raskaka, and Ellen Marcines. This is truly a fated battle between relatives. I can't wait anymore!”

Contrary to her excitement, Nella's expression darkened as she couldn't understand why Theo actually came out first. To fight Theo, they realized no matter how hard they thought, they wouldn't be able to defeat him with strategy.

Hence, Nella proposed to overwhelm Theo with power. Because of Clark's injury, he agreed to be on the second team as the first team should be the one getting the first win.

However, Theo truly just beat them with another trick of his. No one would expect Theo to come out on the first round since he should have known that it was impossible to win against them, especially with his teammates.

Zara and Luka couldn't help but frown, knowing Theo must have prepared something for them.

When the two teams arrived before each other, Nella's eyes turned bloodshot as she couldn't help but make a big smile, purely filled with excitement. ”Cousin. What are you planning?”

Theo chuckled as the other two remained silent.
