Chapter 1339 Answer

The next day.

Chris was walking toward the mansion while muttering, "It's already close to the time limit that he once set in the past. So, I guess he's trying to become a Mythical Rank Expert right now."

Chris couldn't help but remember how Theo recruited her previously. He already showed a clear annoyance toward him, but he still managed to recruit him.

"And due to that matter, I haven't participated much in the operations. Only when we recruited Ergene did he ask me to come… simply because there were not enough people to follow him." Chris sighed. "I guess it's also the consequence of my action. Then, the reason for him to invite me here… I see. Today seems to be the time for my answer."

Chris closed his eyes. On the one hand, Theo might become his doom because Theo's problems were simply too dangerous. On the other hand, Theo was indeed someone strong and talented enough to become one of the top talents in the world.

With that thought in mind, he entered the mansion to meet Theo. Rea led him to the room where they would discuss this matter.

"He's here," Rea said to Theo.

"Hmm." Theo nodded, asking Chris to come in.

When he was inside, the room suddenly turned into a beach. The hot air, the intense sunlight, and the sound of waves were replicated so perfectly that he truly believed this was a beach.

"What do you think?" Theo asked Coline, who was waiting for his illusion to rate her food.

"Hmm…" Coline thought for a moment and nodded. "I guess I can give this food 99 points out of 100 points. I cooked the shrimp a bit too hot."

"This is…" Chris looked around and asked, "What is this place?"

Theo snapped his finger as the beach disappeared, turning into a normal room. "It's nothing much."

"Huh? Is that an illusion? It felt so real." Chris widened his eyes in shock. "Aren't you a Magic Warrior, not an Illusionist?"

"Is this what you want to talk about?" Coline asked as her expression became serious.

"Mhm." Theo nodded. "Well, I don't want to hide it from you, but I guess you two are the last ones to know about my identity."

"A Magic Warrior? An illusion?" Chris narrowed his eyes, trying to come up with a name. However, he couldn't find anyone.

Coline was too absorbed with food, so she never cared about this. Instead of thinking, she chuckled and said directly, "So, you want to reveal your identity to us. If that's the case, you don't really need to. All I want is to become the best chef in the world. Searching for ingredients, killing monsters to increase my skills, and so on… I can list many things that can endanger my life. You are one of them. But even so, I follow you in order to become one. So, I don't really care who you are.

"Even if you are the devil from hell, I'll just ask you to provide me with a hellfire to see if I can cook my food with that." Coline shrugged, not caring about it. At the same time, she had also witnessed how much Jeff trusted him. If even Jeff didn't leave him after knowing his identity, she had no reason to do it.

"Even so, you need to know my identity. At least, that's what you deserve."

"I guess." Coline nodded in agreement. "Knowing your identity can allow me to see the future a little bit. But then again, it's not going to change anything and I can understand the reason why you haven't told me anything. I am basically among the last people you recruit, so…"

Coline shrugged again. She was rather nonchalant about this whole situation.

"As for Chris… I don't think I need to explain it to you, right?" Theo was thankful for Coline's understanding and turned to Chris.

"Well, our relationship might be the worst among the entire group. It's true that I have seen your potential, but I'm scared that I'll die in the process. I am a coward… At least compared to the people in this group. Telling me your identity that you have been hiding this whole time means another huge burden on my shoulder."

"Yes. That's why the illusion is just a clue for you. If you still want to follow me after this, please decide right now." Theo stated.

Chris was faced with two options. If he followed Theo, he would be able to know Theo's real identity. If he didn't follow him, he would be let go after this. Knowing Theo and his charm in recruiting these people, he knew that Theo had someone in his mind in case he left the group.

But there was one question bothering his heart.

He looked at Theo and asked, "I want to know one thing. How far do you plan to go? Is it the top one hundred people in the world? Or are you planning to…"

Chris paused, but the meaning was clear. He was asking Theo if he wanted to be one of the top ten experts in the world.

Theo thought for a moment and said, "That rank is just a stepping stone for me. Unfortunately, that's the only thing I can say."

"A stepping stone?" Chris sucked a cold breath. The only one in the world that actually dared to think that the top ten experts were just stepping stones was probably Theo.

At the same time, Theo had shown him that his ambition was far greater than anyone else. And he also proved that he would gain that godlike ability that he asked Theo to have back then.

In other words, Theo had fulfilled the promise from back then. It was Chris who needed to decide whether he wanted to continue to work with him or not.

Chris paused for a moment, contemplating. His expression turned grim and his tone became serious. "I'd like to ask. What is more important to you? Your ambition or the group?"

This was a tricky question. If Theo chose ambition, it showed that Theo could easily discard them. But if Theo chose the family he had here, it meant Theo's ambition wasn't that great, which proved that it was just him showing a strong front to Chris.

To everyone's surprise, Theo smirked as he said, "Chris… How long have you known me? To think that you're asking that kind of question… My answer is obvious, and it won't ever change.

"I never pick a fight that I can't win."
