Phyrill didn't let them redeem themselves and opened all three Skylinks, showing them the recording.

Phyrill's recording showed similar things to Sihan's recording. Sonia faked her condition just to meet Theo. And Theo's recording just broke everything she said. Nothing could save her anymore.

"This… This…

"

Everyone could see how she threatened Theo and wanted him to be her slave. If that happened, they should expect the worst because Theo was the brain of their group.

Everyone lost their right to complain because Theo had decided the right thing. It was their decision to shelter these people that messed up the whole group.

Alea's hands were shaking, not knowing what to say.

Meanwhile, Sonia and her group were terrified because they never expected there was this undeniable proof. Only some people, like Lex, were clueless why this could happen.

They looked at Sonia with a mouthful of curse words, yet, none of them left their mouth. Only disappointment and sadness filled their hearts.

Phyrill and Sihan suddenly raised their swords while glaring at these people as if they wanted to kill them right now.

"Ungrateful b*tch.

" Phyrill snorted as he prepared himself to kill these people, especially Sonia, as soon as Theo gave a signal.

Sihan seemed to be planning the same.

Due to the emergency, they all had weapons in their hands. Only Sonia, who had been planning to take things into her hand, didn't wield any weapon. They all raised their weapons, trying to protect their lives.

Theo still maintained his silence, making things tense.

Before it escalated even further, Alea shouted,

"Leave this place right now!

"

The group widened their eyes, staring at Alea with a dumbfounded expression.

Alea repeated herself.

"Leave this place right now before I change my mind!

"

Theo obviously didn't like her decision and released his killing intent. However, Alea turned to him.

"Please,

" Alea begged Theo not to do anything to them. Her eyes were already red because she once again failed to do anything and just worsened the situation.

Her kindness just hit her not long after she warned Theo.

"I have told you myself. This world will never go your way, Princess!

" Theo shouted back, releasing his anger.

"You tried to lecture me, but what? What do you want to show me? And do you think I will let others beat me without fighting back?! No! This is proof that your kindness will just bite you back!

"And what impact will it bring to us? What if I don't have any proof to save myself? I might need to go to jail if the police heard this. And what? Who do you think they believe? This is why there are so many false charges! Cameras may have been installed everywhere, but they are just a measure to prevent it; it won't fix the route of the problem. I don't say I hate women, I just freaking hate this world's justice system along with all the people like her!

"And if… What if I don't go to court and follow her words? What do you think will happen to this group? Not only are you going to fail the missions, but you will also destroy everyone's ambition! Tell me again, Princess?! Show me that self-righteous personality of yours!

"

Her expression became even worse when Theo said all of those words.

Looking at her miserable expression and knowing that tomorrow would become worse if he continued. Sometimes, you needed to swallow everything first to stop the group from breaking apart. And this was the weight he needed to bear as the group leader, so Theo clenched his fists for a minute before turning around while saying,

"I feel sick. I'm going to rest.

"

Alea couldn't say anything and closed her eyes, regretting her choice. She thought she could do something to Theo's hatred, but it ended up backfiring her. She wanted to ask

"Why?

" but no one could give the answer.

When Theo entered his tent, the others quickly tried to beg for forgiveness.

"We… We are sorry!

"

"We don't know anything about this.

"

"Please let us stay just for tonight.

"

All these words just made one want to puke. Alea's expression turned even darker until she shouted. There was no hatred or killing intent. It was just a disappointment.

"Leave!

" Alea's shout stopped all their pointless rumblings as she glared at them while raising the sword on her waist.

"Don't force me to unsheathe my sword!

"

They wanted to beg Alea again but knew it was pointless. They helped Lex stand up and dragged Sonia out of there. Lex couldn't move after Theo broke a few ribs while they just wanted to deal with Sonia after this.

Phyrill suddenly walked toward them from behind before Alea asked with a tired expression.

"Phyrill…

"

Phyrill stared at her and shrugged.

"I just want to follow them to make sure they're nowhere near us. I will return after they are at least five hundred feet away from us. After all, I need to thank you for making our group's mood worse.

"

Alea's face turned pale as she returned to her tent without leaving a single word, showing that she wouldn't say anything. Everything was her fault.

Laust didn't care about all these dramas, so he returned to his tent. This would surely affect their performance and become the first crack of their group, but whether it would continue or not surely depended on Theo's ability.

As much as he hated to admit it, he believed Theo could do something about their current situation.

The atmosphere became awkward and filled with silence. Ellen and Sihan shrugged their shoulders as they continued without saying anything, knowing they shouldn't discuss this matter any longer.

Little did they know, Theo had been hiding behind the tree not far away from them.

There was actually a reason why he came out of his tent late. He summoned his clone first to substitute him while he used his Blink to teleport him away.

And Phyrill had understood Theo's plan and chased them, so he and Theo could eliminate the threats completely. After all, there was also a possibility of them taking revenge for this. They simply needed to spread a rumor about Theo to cause mutual destruction. Hence, Theo wanted to end things personally even if he wasn't that confident in dealing with six people.

The confidence only came when he broke Lex's ribs and incapacitated him. This way, it would be three versus five.

Having the chance to do so, Theo smiled and disappeared by using his Blink to avoid anyone from noticing.
