Chapter 605: Friendly Discussion Part 1 (1/2)
After getting what he wanted, Leonardo killed all the goblins in the surrounding area to restore the orders and decided to come back together with Theo, leaving Agata, Enrica, and the other Holy Knights behind.
Theo didn't say anything the whole time as he kept pondering Leonardo's words regarding the orders. He realized that everything was related to orders and his actions might unintentionally poke the orders.
So, he wanted to think about what kind of action he could take in the future.
Ava might know something from Avarice, but Theo couldn't ask her because of Leonardo. It was clear that Leonardo also wished to know everything about orders, but he remained silent To avoid getting entangled in something unnecessary.
There was also the fact that Ava might receive her own order later when she later became a King Class Monster.
After all, Avarice had been training her this whole time which made Ava her successor. If Ava couldn't get the same order as Avarice, it meant more research was needed to understand the orders.
When he thought about it, he remembered Ava spitting out the hobgoblin's meat. Normally, Ava wouldn't even consider eating something she didn't like.
Hence, the moment Ava ate the hobgoblin's meat, she should be able to eat it. The only reason why Ava couldn't eat it was the order.
The hobgoblin had been injected by other races, turning their meat inedible due to the contamination. Not only Ava, but other monsters that tried to eat the hobgoblin might spit it out.
Unfortunately, he couldn't test his theory as he was already on his way home.
…
A few days later.
Ava was happily eating pizza in the garden while ignoring the purple-haired girl that was constantly watching her behavior and admiring her cuteness.
Meanwhile, Theo was sitting on the grass leisurely, playing chess with Lorenzo. The latter visited him to receive the promise.
While playing, Lorenzo asked, ”Say, how about we discuss what grandfather did a few days ago?”
”Hmm?” Theo squinted his eyes and placed the knight on G2. ”Sure.”
”Let me see… Where should we start.” Lorenzo thought for a moment. ”I'm sure you know about grandfather's summoned creatures, right?”
”Yes. I feel like those summoned creatures are chess pieces.”
”Yes. My father told me the same. The one that was always behind him was the king. The one that protected us the whole time was the queen. There were also rooks, knights, and pawns a few days ago. I didn't see any bishop though.” Lorenzo nodded.
”Wasn't it just a normal summoning technique?”
”But wasn't it weird?” Lorenzo furrowed his eyebrows. ”The rumor says grandfather's summoned creatures are a Divine Technique.”
”Hoh?” That statement piqued Theo's interest.
”Yeah. That Divine Technique must allow him to channel his power there… I mean all his power. Awareness, Control, and other stuff.” Lorenzo added.
”That's certainly interesting. The rook that stopped the Goblin King's attack was extraordinary as well. He must have put immense Magic Power and Awareness into that shield. It was basically a fortress,” said Theo with a calm expression.
