Chapter 1243 Huge Problem
It was a picture of a monster with a black armor and black horse. With just a single glance, he recognized this monster as he was none other than the Dark King.
Maya then presented him with the news that had been going on all around the world.
‘The world is in a frenzy.’
‘Argelia has been destroyed.’
‘A country that became independent just two hundred years ago is now destroyed in a single night.’
‘Two hundred thousand people are missing, and approximately one million people have died under the monsters’ onslaught.’
‘The two Teleportation Circles in the country were said to be destroyed before the monster’s invasion.’
‘Did the monster destroy the teleportation circles?’
‘Did humans have once again incurred the monsters’ wraths?’
There was so much news about them, from just stating the facts to conspiracy theories. Even Theo couldn’t believe it yesterday when he got this news from Rea.
But the most shocking thing was the appearance of the Dark King.
“Do you know anything?” Maya asked with a serious expression.
“I have no idea.” Theo shook his head helplessly. “Besides, shouldn’t he be on the other side of this country?”
“We are truly lacking in the research about the other side because the monsters are hindering us.” Maya sighed. Even she couldn’t give any conclusion as everything would just end up becoming a conspiracy theory.
“Has your father said anything?” Theo asked.
‘My father also doesn’t know anything about this. There is an indication that something has been broken, but he doesn’t know the exact details.” Rea shook her head in disappointment. “He also wants to hear your opinions about this. According to him, this matter will make all the top ten experts wary.”
“Actually, the Time God asked me to give this to you.” Maya handed him a piece of paper.
Theo opened it in the corner so that only he could read it. Although they were curious, they didn’t dare to approach him.
Theo frowned when he saw the message. There wasn’t a single word on it as if he didn’t want to intervene in this matter.
As someone who had knowledge about the future, the Time God obviously knew something about this matter. But he had clarified that his role was just an observer, so it was clear that he didn’t have any intention of fixing this problem.
“What is this then…” Theo narrowed his eyes and returned to his seat while burning the paper.
“I don’t know. Let me summarize the situation a bit. Around 11 pm, a huge crack appeared on top of the two Teleportation Circles in Argelia.
“Those two cracks caused a huge disruption. It seemed to be an electromagnetic wave, causing all the airplanes to evacuate from the area. Then, the cracks became bigger and bigger as the police and military stood by the cracks to understand what was happening.
“And at 1 am, all hell broke loose. The cracks shattered, making it look like the sky had broken as if it was a piece of glass. After that, numerous monsters emerged from the cracks, swarming the entire area.
“The military was fighting against the monsters, and all hunters had been dispatched, but there were simply too many monsters.
“In the end, they could only retreat while evacuating the citizens. Still, many people died, and it seemed that people disappeared when the cracks started to appear, causing so much confusion around the area. That was also the cause of the deaths of tens of thousands of people.
“In the end, the two biggest cities of Argelia were completely evacuated, and the monsters decided to take over the two cities. There were numerous attempts to investigate this matter, but no one could understand it for the time being.
“I think you know the reason why I’m showing you this picture, right?” Maya explained the entire news.
Theo’s expression became serious as he knew that this matter wasn’t as simple as he thought.
“So, do you want me to investigate what’s going on?”
“Not really.” Maya shook her head. “If it’s my father, he wouldn’t hesitate to ask you about this. But this is me. Even when the military asked me, I didn’t give a damn about it. I hate them now.
“So, the reason I came to you is to ask you to form a team to go to this country.”
“To help them?”
“Yes, with supply.” Maya nodded with a serious expression. “I’m not asking you to go there to investigate it. I just want you to deliver supplies that our company will donate.”
“You’re still indirectly asking me to investigate. You are sure that my curiosity will get the better of me.” Theo snorted.
“Well, I didn’t ask.” Maya rolled her eyes.
“But this is kind of… There is something big happening. I don’t know what’s going on as well, so I might try asking people in that country about it.” Theo nodded in agreement.
“That’s great. Anyway, you need at least five Mythical Rank Experts there to make sure everything is safe. If you want any Mythical Rank Experts from the company, just tell me.”
“That’s good then. In that case, I need your mother and Patrick to follow me to this area.”
“Huh? Patrick aside, why my mother?”
“For an image. If the mother of the CEO comes, it will give the best image, no?” Theo shrugged.
“That’s true… My father and I are occupied with the company, so we can’t really leave right now. My grandparents… They’ve disappeared again, so there is only my mother…”
“Yeah. That’s the reason.” Theo then glanced at Isaac. “In that case, from my side, I’ll have Ryo, Coline, and Ergene with me.”
“Okay. I don’t really mind if you’re using your own force for this.” Maya agreed without hesitation.
“I need to go there. I can’t let this opportunity go!” Isaac’s eyes were shining. He was too excited to investigate this unknown phenomenon.
“Well, do you want to go, Isaac? In that case, I’ll have a Healer with us too, since we’re going to help people.”
“I also want to go.” Rea raised her hand with a firm gaze as if asking to be included.
“Fine.” Theo nonchalantly agreed while looking at the ceiling with an empty gaze, lamenting. “Still, what’s wrong with this world…”
