Chapter 618 - Small Discussion (1/2)

The tension rose as Lorenzo glanced at Theo, supporting his stand.

”You're calling me incompetent? Do you think you're stronger than me?” Zhilov narrowed his eyes as he stepped forward, planning to confront Theo.

”I don't need to say some flowery words. You're not my boss or something. You don't respect me and feel offended when I do the same? Do you have some screws loose in your head?” Theo wasn't afraid of Zhilov even with his background.

”In that case, shouldn't we get an explanation from the leader of this group?” Lorenzo glanced at Ana.

Even Ana didn't expect that Lorenzo would openly protect Theo. She had no idea that Lorenzo had a close relationship with Theo.

That was why he felt offended when Zhilov spouted all those words. He stated with a firm tone. ”I don't mind if we stop the cooperation right now. Obviously, my War God Family will take everything.

”Don't forget that it's you who need us, not the other way around.” Lorenzo placed his left hand on the handle and flicked his blade, preparing to draw it if necessary.

”That's enough.” Ana sighed and glared at Zhilov. ”If you're planning to embarrass yourself, you can do it alone. If you are going to continue with this pointless statement, I have no choice other than to expel you.

”What you need to face is not me or anyone in this place, but your own family back home. You will need to explain your own stupidity.”

”What did—” Zhilov clenched his fists.

”What? You can't even defeat Alea… Are you planning to challenge me?” Ana's tone became colder and colder. ”Your family has granted me the full right to expel you. If you can't obey me, get lost.”

Zhilov gritted his teeth and turned around, snorting.

After that, Ana raised her hand as a silver-colored staff appeared on her hand. She then waved her fingers upward as the snow was pushed away and ice blocks began to appear, gradually forming an igloo.

”I hope this is enough for an apology.”

Lorenzo paused for a moment and glanced at Theo.

Seeing he had already stepped back, Lorenzo sheathed his sword until a clicking sound echoed in their ears.

He stopped pursuing the matter.

”I guess it's time for us to discuss how we should deal with this.” Ana sighed and waved her hand again, forming another igloo. ”We can talk inside there. The rest can go to their respective igloo to hide from the snow.”

”Okay.” Lorenzo nodded. ”Theo, with me.”

”Got it.” Theo then glanced at Agata and said, ”Take care of the rest for me.”

Agata agreed and stepped back. Ava also leaped from Theo's shoulder to Agata's palm as she brought her inside.

Alea's eyes were locked on Agata and Ava since she had never seen them back in Thersland. Ava aside, she never thought Theo would be accompanied by a woman.

From how she behaved, they didn't seem to be in a relationship. Even then, it was weird for Theo to take an interest in women, especially a random woman.

Unfortunately, she couldn't ask anything for the time being.
