Chapter 397 - Realization

"Done." Theo smiled and glanced at the side, seeing the magicians overpowered the scorpion with their concentrated power. He then stopped and said to Agata, "Let's go back."
"Yep. Let's go back." Agata nodded her head, albeit with an awkward face. She also didn't forget to inform the warrior. "The other one is going to die at any moment. We should retreat right now and exchange roles."
The fighter took another look at the other scorpion and nodded his head, following them back to the cubicars.
After that, Agata asked, "You're really a mysterious guy. I do believe that what you have done in the competition is your efforts this whole time, but to think it's just a mere shell…"
"I don't know what you are talking about." Theo shook his head helplessly.
"Either way, I think the War God Family will take a liking to it." She smiled. "I guess I understand what you are trying to show me and why you said they may need to raise the price. You are trying to sell your future value too, right?"
"Lady." Theo smiled back and said, "You haven't seen anything yet."
"Bragging." She chuckled, trying to tease him.
"I'm fighting for my own price, so I need to show off a little bit." Theo shrugged.
"I'm looking forward to it then." Agata nodded as she kept running with a smile on her face.
Suddenly, Alea came to her with a serious expression, asking with a voice only both of them could hear. "I finally know who you are. You are Agata Mota, right?"
After getting informed about Alea's eyes, Agata didn't bother to hide it and smiled. "So?"
Alea was bewildered that she admitted it right away.
However, Agata shut her down with, "I don't care about you, self-centered woman."
She harrumphed and left her side. There was a mountain of things she wanted to say to her, but she decided to wait until they finished this expedition.
Meanwhile, Theo continued without any word, unaware of what the two talked about.
In the expedition, they kept changing their roles to maintain their stamina and magic power reserve.
Theo also had grown accustomed to his role, learning more about a big expedition.
Because they brought cubicars, there was no shortage of water and food on the way. Of course, they still hunted some monsters to avoid being reliant on the preserved food and it would be more enjoyable that way.
After that, the group split into four and watched out during the night. The group was split according to their cubicars, so Agata and Theo were together most of the time.
Agata also understood that Theo was the one who made her feel the need to have Mimicry skills, not anybody else. For the first time in her life, she wanted someone to see her characters, not beauty. Unfortunately, she couldn't utter those words because she felt Theo would be annoyed to listen to those words with their current relationship.
Marcell and Agata explained many things regarding the expedition, making him understand everything, including the small stuff.
However, things started to change when Theo was sitting on the cubicars leisurely.
Marcell, who was quietly driving the cubicars, opened his mouth to warn them. "We're entering Sigil Mountain Range. The slope is one mile in front of us."
"!!!" Theo widened his eyes before his expression darkened. He muttered inwardly, 'I guess this is the time.'
As he expected, the trouble seemed to come immediately. Marcell was leisurely driving before a warning issued by the radar. There was a word stated on the radar screen.
Caution.
The flash of red light coming from that word alarmed his eyes right away as he lowered his head, finding many dots moving at fast speed.
"Hmm?!" Marcell hurriedly shouted when he noticed it. "There is a big group coming at us."
"!!!" Agata raised her eyebrows while Theo had expected something like this.
Marcell reached his communication device and shouted, "Warning, warning. Huge pack ahead. All personnel are to stop the cubicars and come out to face them. Their number… above a hundred!"
After warning them, Marcell asked while stopping the cubicar. "Miss, your order?!"
Alea's body shook. She took a glance at Theo once before slapping her cheeks.
'No, I can't do this. I need to stay focused for now.' Alea regained her focus and said, "I will come out to give my order personally."
Alea hurriedly exited the cubicar and jumped on top of it, getting a better look at the situation. She soon found a cloud of huge dust kicked up by a pack of monsters and clicked her tongue. "How?"
However, she soon saw a human female standing a few hundred feet in front of them, looking at the pack as if she planned to kill them.
"Leader?!" Xavier called Alea, asking her opinion.
Alea pointed at the girl and shouted, "See the girl over there?"
Xavier furrowed his eyebrows and jumped on top of the cubicar, finally finding the girl. "Yes."
"Get her out of here. We will also start retreating and directing the monsters to another direction." Alea shouted.
"Understood." Xavier pointed at the front and shouted, "Bring her back here."
Two fighters acknowledged his orders and headed to the front.
Meanwhile, Theo and Agata just came out of the cubicar. Theo could finally see Alea becoming a real leader.
From her orders, the cubicars began to drive backward.
The two fighters that were ordered to bring the girl back had arrived not far from her.
The girl herself seemed to be wearing a blue t-shirt and long jeans, casually staring at the pack.
"Ehm, lady? How about you come with us? There is a huge pack coming at us." The fighter asked politely, not knowing this lady's identity.
Alea used binoculars to see the monsters and soon dropped her jaw to the ground when she recognized them. "This is…"
She couldn't help but remember Theo's warning before the expedition. It was soon reinforced by what he said inside the cubicar.
"Mutated Chimera Wolves…" Alea muttered and remembered Theo once said the Mutated Chimera Wolf had started turning into a human after devouring multiple of them. In that instant, she took another look at the girl and panicked, shouting on top of her lungs. "Not good. Get out of there right now! Get the two back here!"
Unfortunately, they couldn't hear her voice as the female suddenly turned around, looking the two fighters in the eyes with her own bloodshot eyes.
