Chapter 1387 Theo vs Theo
"Hu..." Akbar took a deep breath while closing the book as he had finished his job. He turned around while saying, "There is a 99% chance that Rea will finish the battle first and come to me instead of Ergene."
As he said, Rea came to his position with a frown. "Can you not say bla bla bla chance?"
"Haha, is it creepy?"
"Well, I don't mean to be rude, but when you were talking about it with Isaac, you often talked by chance or something. It made me uncomfortable to be honest like you saying there's an 80% chance that I'm getting bothered with how you talk or something. Not everything is based on probability." Rea scratched the back of her head. "I apologize if I insult you."
"No, that's understandable. If that makes you uncomfortable, unless it's important enough, I can refrain from using the probability." Akbar nodded.
"Anyway, we're the first to defeat our opponents. What are we going to do?" Rea asked. "Should we help Ryo and Chris? Or go to Felix? Maybe the rabbit?"
Akbar fell silent for a moment before giving her the option. "There's an 80% chance that you will die if you help the rabbit, but you are 100% burdening her."
"So, we can't go there. How about the others?"
"If there are only two of us, there is a 50% chance we will succeed in helping Felix. So, I suggest that we help Ryo and Chris, who have been helping us this whole time. If not for Chris' music, our abilities won't increase that much. If not for Ryo, Chris can't play this long. If we have their help, we can relieve Felix so that he can help Ruth.
"At the same time, there is a 70% chance that Jeff and Coline finish their battle at that time."
"I see. With more help, we can turn around the situation. That's the best. How about the winning probability of others?"
"Our group is quite eccentric, but I can say it's around 60% at the very least. But I can't predict Theo and the rabbit."
"Understood. We'll be focusing on the others then. If we can surround the Poison King..."
"The probability of us dying against the Poison King will decrease from 90% to 40%."
"It's still too high, but that depends on the help of the War God Family. Anyway, we're going to Chris and Ryo."ʟ
"Okay."
Akbar and Rea had come to an agreement and moved according to their judgment.
Still, the biggest movement came from the other battlefield where the Griffith Family and the War God Family clashed.
Theo and the Original Theo were staring at each other as if they could see through what each other was thinking. It might be due to them being the same person, but everything seemed clear in their eyes.
Both of them actually thought the same thing, which was to prove their doubt by raising their right hand at the same time.
'As expected, it seems that both of us can understand each other. Even though he's just my clone.' The Original Theo narrowed his eyes. The fact that his clone did the same thing as him angered him.
On the other hand, Theo had a different thought. 'Even though we're able to see each other's thoughts. It seems that we have different perspectives and characters. After experiencing many things, I have matured and am well-versed in strategy. On the other hand, I don't know what he's experienced in that place, but it surely affects his state of mind.
'He probably has an anger issue, and that's something I can take advantage of. The problem will be his Devouring Order. Can I do this?' Theo gulped down as he was watching the Original Theo with his Realistic Eyes.
Surprisingly, in those realities, the Devouring Order overwhelmed him.
"I see. This is interesting. Doesn't this mean a chance for me to surpass him?" Theo muttered in a low voice as he leaped forward while shouting, "Nella. Leave this place."
Nella knew that staying here would just endanger his life, so she immediately stepped out of the battlefield after showing she supported him no matter who he was.
Theo thanked Nella in his heart while raising his right hand.
Suddenly, a huge monster head came out of the ground and swallowed the Original Theo. Of course, this was just an illusion, but the monster's head suddenly turned black as it melted to the ground.
Theo saw that the melting process didn't make the monster flow down, so it was clear that the Original Theo devoured it instead of melting it.
The Original Theo then replied in the same way. Pointing his palm at Theo, he shot out a black substance.
Due to his Reality Eyes, Theo could see that this attack was the Curse Bestowal. Hence, Theo summoned his Death Avatar and opened the barrier, preventing any curse from coming inside.
The black substance was completely stopped by the barrier and only the Magic Power flew past it.
"Hahaha, this is interesting." Theo smirked.
The Original Theo frowned. "What's interesting? A mere clone dares to go against the Original?"
"It's interesting because I can see my limits by fighting myself. And don't forget that... I don't have to limit myself anymore." Theo smirked.
Suddenly, Magic Bullets appeared on his back.
In the past, Theo had taken advantage of the versatility of the Magic Bullets in most battles. But because of Joker's identity, Theo couldn't use the Magic Bullets in the open anymore. He had to change their shapes to make them not look like Magic Bullets, resulting in him not being able to summon the Magic Bullets to the limit.
There was one advantage of Magic Bullets, they didn't need a huge amount of Magic Power since Theo didn't need to reshape them and they were easy to control.
Three years ago, Theo could only summon two hundred Magic Bullets at once. But three years later, Theo had reached Perfect Control and Mythical Rank.
The Magic Bullets that appeared behind him were so many that their light was blinding.
"It's truly been a while, so I'm going all out." Theo smiled as he summoned more than two thousand Magic Bullets.
